Unfortunately, there are no "what ifs." But if she had to let Gu Qiang go, she would be extremely reluctant. With red eyes, Bai Rou held Gu Qiang's hand and refused to let go: "Can't you not go? My baby and I will miss you."

These past few days have been so enjoyable that Gu Qiang has almost forgotten about home. Looking at Bai Rou acting coquettishly, Gu Qiang is also feeling a bit smug.

But thinking that without money, there is nothing, Gu Qiang suppressed his reluctance: "I'm going for the sake of the two of us. Think about the Rong family's conditions. They can make a living by just a little bit of money between their fingers. If I don't go, how will I get money? Be good."

Tears welled up in Bai Rou's eyes as she choked out, "I know you're doing this for our own good, but you've come all this way to stay for a few days and you're leaving already. I can't bear to part with you."

Gu Qiang gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and comforted her, "Alright, alright, once I've gotten enough of the stuff, I'll divorce Rong Xin and marry you. Just wait a little longer."

Although she was reluctant to part with him now, thinking about their future marriage, Bai Rou suppressed her reluctance and said, "I... okay, I'll wait for you."

"Good boy," Gu Qiang said with a smile as he turned and left. When he arrived at the Rong family home, the Rong family members were almost asleep.

When Rong Xin saw him coming, she quickly led him into the room and said to Gu Rong on the bed, "Rong Bao, look who's here! Daddy's here. Do you want Daddy to hug you?"

Following his words, Gu Qiang walked to Gu Rong's side and reached out his hand to her: "Come here, Rongbao, let Daddy give you a hug."

When Gu Rong saw Gu Qiang, she snorted inwardly, but on the surface she remained obedient and well-behaved.

But hugging was out of the question, especially since Rong Liancheng was coming to see her that night. Leaving her in the room like that would definitely get them noticed.

So she pulled Gu Qiang's arm away and tugged at Rong Xin's arm, saying, "Mom, I want to sleep with Grandpa and Grandma."

Rong Xin glanced at Gu Qiang, then thought that her father had called Gu Rong to the study in the evening, so there must be something he wanted to do.

“Okay,” Rong Xin picked up Gu Rong and then looked at Gu Qiang: “You can rest after working all day. I’ll take Rong Bao over.”

Seeing Gu Rong's obvious rejection of him, Gu Qiang couldn't help but frown.

But now that he was at the Rong family's house, Gu Qiang didn't say anything. He nodded and lay down, saying, "Okay, you guys go first, I'll go to sleep."

Rong Xin carried Gu Rong to her parents' door and knocked: "Mom and Dad, are you asleep? Rong Bao wants to sleep with you."

Fan Qi put on her shoes, opened the door, and looked at Rong Bao: "Rong Bao is here. Come in quickly with Grandma, and Grandma will lull you to sleep."

Gu Rong peered into the room and found that Rong Liancheng was not inside.

The guardian looked at Fan Qi and asked, "Grandma, where did Grandpa go? Isn't he sleeping?"

After her husband finished speaking with Gu Rong, he came back and briefly told her about it. Fan Qi naturally understood what Gu Rong meant by asking the question.

He smiled and gently rubbed her face: "Your grandfather went out on something, he'll be back soon, Rongbao, how about you wait for him in bed?"

Since the person hasn't returned or come looking for her, it's definitely not her turn to appear yet.

Gu Rong sat on the bed and waved to Rong Xin: "Mom, you can go back now. Grandma and I will wait here for Grandpa to come back."

Rong Xin patted Gu Rong's head and said softly, "Then Mommy will go back first. Be a good girl and listen to Grandpa and Grandma." After saying that, she turned and left.

Gu Rong sat on the bed, kicking her legs listlessly, her eyes glancing at the door every now and then.

Fan Qi sat beside her, looking at her tenderly: "Rongbao, how about Grandma tells you a story? Let's wait patiently."

Gu Rong nodded, lay down next to Fan Qi, and listened to her talk about the Rong family's past.

The article briefly recounted the Rong family's rise to prominence, their growth, and their donation of their family fortune to save the country when it was in trouble.

Just as they were continuing their conversation, the door was gently pushed open, and Rong Liancheng walked in.

Looking at Gu Rong on the bed, Rong Liancheng smiled kindly: "Rongbao, have you been waiting for your grandfather for a long time?"

He had thought Gu Rong was with Rong Xin, but when he went to check, he found that she had come to his place.

Gu Rong jumped off the bed and ran to Rong Liancheng's side: "Grandpa, you're finally back! When are we going?"

Rong Liancheng held Gu Rong's hand and whispered, "Let's go now."

After the two left the room, Rong Liancheng did not immediately take his men out, but instead led them into the study.

After closing the door, Rong Liancheng asked in a low voice, "Do you still have any of those talismans? Let's go quietly."

"Yes," Gu Rong said, taking out a talisman. Rong Liancheng naturally closed his eyes.

Rong Liancheng only opened his eyes after Gu Rong tugged at his hand.

Rong Liancheng smiled, took Gu Rong's hand, and left home.

Han Jianshu, who was in the room, opened her eyes as if sensing the two leaving the house, but closed them again to rest after a while.

Rong Liancheng led Gu Rong to a house not far from his home and took her into a room in the backyard.

Upon opening the room, I saw more than a dozen boxes laid out there.

Without saying a word, Gu Rong removed the talisman from Rong Liancheng's body and walked towards the box.

Rong Liancheng then closed his eyes, and Gu Rong waved his hand to take the box away.

But the moment the box entered the space, Gu Rong's face turned deathly pale, and she almost lost her balance. It took her a while to feel better.

He walked over to Rong Liancheng, stuck a talisman on him, and tugged at his hand: "Let's go back now."

Because it was quite dark, Rong Liancheng couldn't see her face, and since Gu Rong didn't seem uncomfortable, he assumed there was nothing wrong.

Rong Liancheng turned his head and glanced around to make sure everything had been taken away, then nodded in agreement: "Okay."

When the two returned home and entered their room, Rong Liancheng noticed that her face was somewhat pale.

He carried her to the bed and asked worriedly, "Rongbao, is there anything else that's bothering you?"

"No, I'm just so sleepy. I want to sleep. Don't make a sound," Gu Rong said groggily, her words muffled and unable to fully open her mouth.

Seeing how sleepy she was, Fan Qi gently pushed her further into the bed: "Okay, okay, Rongbao, go to sleep, we won't disturb you."

Although Rong Liancheng was still somewhat worried, seeing that Gu Rong quickly fell asleep, he didn't want to disturb her any further.

He and Fan Qi lay down quietly, and after confirming that Gu Rong was asleep and there was no other discomfort, they both fell asleep quickly as well.

The next day, everyone got up. Fan Qi looked at Gu Rong, who was still fast asleep on the bed, and couldn't help but worry.

After Han Jianshu finished washing up, she learned that Gu Rong was in Rong Lian's room. She went to the door and peeked through the crack, asking softly, "Grandma, Grandpa, is Rong Bao awake?"

As the sound came, the legendary Gu Rong couldn't help but frown.
