Lu will be disguised when he arrives at the Wanmao Hotel, as it would be inappropriate for him to show his true face given his current status and position. His purpose in coming is to meet with Guo Suwa (Lu Zhi).
When he saw the obvious scar on Guo Suwa's (Lu Zhi's) face, his pupils contracted sharply, and his entire demeanor instantly became more imposing. He asked with concern, "Fourth Brother, what happened to you? How did you get injured?"
Guo Suwa (Lu Zhi) never expected that his first words to his elder brother would be like this. He couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time, but he also felt the care from his elder brother, a feeling that warmed his heart.
Guo Suwa (Lu Zhi) raised his hand and touched the scar on his face, revealing a helpless smile. He explained, "This is from when I was injured and lost my memory. I was rescued by someone. Later, I was fighting for territory and building up my power in the Jade Kingdom. But I'm also fortunate to have this scar, which allowed me to escape assassination attempts time and time again, as well as the pursuit of those people in the Golden Triangle."
Lu Jiang extended his right hand and gently patted his younger brother's shoulder before asking, "Are you planning to live under the identity of Guo Suwa forever?"
Guo Suwa's expression was somewhat indifferent. He slowly replied, "Yes, I've gotten used to this identity, and I don't want you to be implicated or become my weakness because of me."
Hearing his brother's words, Lu Jiang felt a surge of anger. He suddenly swung his fist, which, though seemingly fierce, had no real power, and struck Guo Suwa's shoulder, all the while cursing, "Don't give me that bullshit. When did you become such a coward?"
Guo Suwa felt that Lu Jiang's punch was so light it barely shook off the dust on his clothes. He laughed again and said, "Brother, don't be angry. I think this is great. After the project here is successfully launched, I plan to go back to China, find a city I like to settle down in, get married, have a child, and maybe even a child in my old age. That way, I can take care of you in your old age!"
Upon hearing Guo Suwa's words, Lu Jiang's expression remained serious. He simply forced out a single word through gritted teeth: "Get lost!"
Looking at Lu Jiang, Qian Duoduo realized that this was one of the few times in the past thirty years that Lu Jiang had sworn. The image of the gentle and refined handsome uncle had completely disappeared in front of Lu Zhi.
In the end, Qian Duoduo personally cooked some of his signature dishes in the kitchen of Wanmao Hotel restaurant. Guo Suwa tasted a few bites, smiled and gave Lu Yuan a thumbs up, saying, "I never thought that you would be the luckiest among us brothers. Not only did you have a wife who is highly educated and capable, but you also have excellent cooking skills."
Lu Yuan didn't mince words about this, saying, "Fourth Brother, you're right. I've watched Duoduo grow up since she was little, and I've always been afraid she'd be snatched away. But you'd better hurry up now, otherwise all the good girls will be taken, and your son will come even later in your old age."
After hearing Lu Yuan's boast, Guo Suwa simply replied, "You little rascal, stop stirring up trouble here. Even if I can't find a wife, someone will take care of me in my old age. I raised Miao Lun and Miao Mei since they were little, and they will definitely take care of me until the end. I just want to watch them grow up and start their own families."
At this moment, Lu Jiang, who was standing nearby, overheard Guo Suwa's words and interjected, "Are those two people from the Emerald Kingdom?"
Guo Suwa shook her head and explained, "No, their nationality is still Chinese. It's just that during the border war, they were destitute and wandered aimlessly in the mountains. Somehow, they ended up in the Emerald Country. After wandering there for more than ten days, they happened to bump into me, who was injured. So, they took care of me for a month. That's why I brought them into my life, and they've stayed with me for so many years."
After hearing Guo Suwa's words, Lu nodded thoughtfully, indicating his agreement with his point of view. He thought to himself that these two young men had indeed left a good impression.
Seeing this, Guo Suwa smiled and continued, "Over the years, they have been by my side, giving me a lot to do. I have not only taught them various kinds of knowledge and skills, but also spent many unforgettable times with them."
He paused, recalling the past, and sighed, "In the process of teaching them, I was often surprised by how much knowledge I possessed. Whether it was the culture and language of the Emerald Kingdom or various professional skills, I could use them with ease and skill. This made me start to wonder whether I was Chinese or from the Emerald Kingdom?"
Lu listened quietly, without interrupting Guo Suwa's thoughts. He knew that for someone who had lived in a foreign land for many years, such doubts about their own identity were quite common.
After a five-day trip to Xingcheng, Lu will continue to the next city. Meanwhile, Guo Suwa begins preparations for settling in China. First, he needs to dismantle some of the Emerald Kingdom's influence, a task that will require considerable time and effort.
Meanwhile, Guo Suwa also needed to bring some of his Chinese subordinates, whom he had rescued in the Jade Kingdom, back to China. This process was fraught with challenges and difficulties, but Guo Suwa did not back down. After more than three months of hard work, he finally completed all the preparations and successfully embarked on his journey home.
Upon learning that Guo Suwa had chosen to settle in Sichuan Province, Qian Duoduo couldn't help but exclaim, "Fourth Brother really knows how to enjoy life! Chengdu is a famously slow-paced city. He not only has money now, but also plenty of free time to squander. Besides, Sichuan is known for its beautiful women. Maybe it won't be long before we meet Fourth Brother's wife!"
Lu Yuan laughed after hearing this and said, "Haha, that's true. As long as Fourth Brother is safe and sound in China, we can rest assured."
Qian Duoduo suddenly remembered something and quickly said to Lu Yuan, "Oh, right, your twins have a competition recently, do you want to go and cheer them on?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan asked in surprise, "Huh? Why do I have to go?"
Qian Duoduo replied matter-of-factly, "You're their grandfather. If you don't go and encourage the kids now, and strengthen the bond between grandfather and grandchildren, when will you ever get the chance?"
Lu Yuan retorted dismissively, "Then why don't you go?"
Qian Duoduo explained helplessly, "Oh dear, I was really busy those few days and couldn't find the time. Since you don't need to go to Xingcheng anyway, you can accompany the kids to the competition. Look at you, such a handsome grandpa, sitting there, the kids will definitely feel very proud!"
