"Thank you very much, Miss Xue'er!" Gu Yunru looked at the pure and innocent Xue'er, with endless reverie in his heart. If this girl lived in the Central Plains, he wondered how many kings would go to war for her.
Uncle Su also returned with a full load, with a silly smile on his face. The golden hair had been peeled off by him.
"Uncle, you can finish your mission now, but I always feel that those bulky animals are also living beings. Can you change your job in the future?" Gu Yunru talked to him reluctantly while sitting in the carriage with him. Uncle Su had always left a good impression on him, but when he saw Uncle Su skillfully killing those animals with a dagger, his heart always ached for them.
"I know, girl, you are moved by pity. In fact, I also thought so when I was young. But don't worry, after this order is completed, I will never touch those animals again. I will retire and open a cloth shop."
"That's great!" Gu Yunru was so happy to see that Uncle Su had reached an agreement with her. Although she was delayed for quite a while on the road, she finally got everything done. When she arrived at the inn at the foot of the mountain, she really saw Xiangping and the others, so she hugged Xiangping.
"That's great, Sister Gu, it's great that you can return safely!" Xiang Ping cried with joy, and seeing that she finally got the Tiancan Ice back, everyone couldn't wait to set off. This was the last night, the night to say goodbye to Uncle Su. Everyone gathered around the table, holding their wine glasses reluctantly, as they had shared hardships together. Unfortunately, all good things must come to an end, and days like this... really made everyone feel melancholy.
"We will go our separate ways from now on, but I will remember each of you in this trip. You must not forget me in the future, understand?" Gu Yunru raised her cup and looked at everyone in a feigned anger, asking them to remember what she said today and not forget a single word! "Understood!"
Everyone drank the wine, and the pleasant night passed in the blink of an eye. Inside the Huajian Tower, Shu'er was anxiously waiting for Gu Yunru to come back.
The bridesmaid was also looking outside eagerly. Xiaoyu and Liang Xu were waiting in the hall.
"It's been more than half a month. Logically, he should have returned today. Why is there still no movement?"
Xiaoyu calculated the time. The weather over at Tianshan was already bad. If there was still no news until now, what should he do if something really happened?
"Don't think about it anymore. The boss and your master will be fine." Liang Xu stayed by Xiaoyu's side attentively, holding her hand and comforting her in a gentle voice.
Shu'er couldn't help sneezing, and at this moment, Mazi came running back with a smile on his face, saying that the boss and Miss Xiangping had returned.
Gu Yunru and Xiang Ping stopped their horses on the road and when they walked into Huajian Tower, they saw everyone sitting in the lobby with a serious look on their faces. They didn't know what they were going to do.
"What's wrong with everyone? I'm hungry. Why don't you bring some good wine and food!" Gu Yunru called on everyone to get busy. Shu'er and Xiaoyu both came forward to check on the two of them. Seeing that they were safe and sound, they breathed a sigh of relief.
"I'm glad you're okay. We were so worried." Xiaoyu's eyes were soft. Seeing that the two people finally returned safely, a stone in her heart was completely put down.
Gu Yunru took the Tiancanbing and went straight to the attic, ready to treat Rong Zhen. Seeing that there was a ball of black air in his chest causing trouble, she took a deep breath, sat beside him, and held his hand.
"Husband, I'm back." Gu Yunru smiled softly, gently took his hand, and began to breathe in and out.
Xiangping was anxious and wanted to go up to the attic, but Shuer stood in front of her and motioned Xiaoyu and Liang Xu to go back to the hall first, as she had something to say to Xiangping alone.
"Master, please have a good chat. Don't quarrel anymore..." Xiaoyu said earnestly, and then left with Liang Xu first. Xiangping straightened her back and looked at Shu'er in front of her. She knew that Shu'er had never welcomed her, but she could accept it calmly.
"Miss Shu'er, if you have anything to say, just say it."
"That's great. Actually, I want to tell you that Huajianlou is fully staffed, and your presence is really superfluous. I don't need to explain some things in detail, you should understand them." Shu'er put her hands on her chest proudly, and asked with a piercing gaze. Even if she didn't speak in such a tone, in Xiangping's impression, anyone around Gu Yunru would not give her a good face.
"I understand what you mean, Miss Shu'er, but I just want to see how my brother is doing now."
"Don't worry, the Tiancanbing has been retrieved, and he will be safe. This farce is all caused by you. Do you still want to watch everything happen again?" Shu'er was very critical in front of her, and Xiangping took a step back belatedly.
"I understand, Miss Shu'er, I won't cause any trouble to you."

After saying this, she left through the back door first. Gu Yunru was so relieved when she saw Rong Zhen slowly recovering that she quickly threw herself into his arms and a line of clear tears flowed down.
"Husband, you finally woke up, did you know? I was really worried about you!" Gu Yunru cried with joy and snuggled in his arms. She was afraid of hurting him, so her movements were very gentle.
"I know... I know." Rong Zhen patted her back gently. After Shu'er heard the noise upstairs, she brought Xiniang, Mazi and others to the door of the room to watch. When they saw that Rong Zhen had finally woken up, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
During dinner, Gu Yunru did not see Xiangping. Today's meals were all cooked by Xiaoyu. Gu Yunru was used to the meals cooked by Xiangping, and always felt that the meals cooked by Xiaoyu lacked some flavor. She didn't know what was wrong and couldn't put her finger on it.
