Chapter Ninety-Four: Can You Promise Me?



Gu Sang blinked, momentarily at a loss for words.

Just like that... staring at me?

"Do you think I know some kind of evil magic? That I can just stand here and then magically disappear?"

"Alright, I won't keep an eye on you anymore."

Gu Sang shrugged and followed Li Rong back to town.

After returning to town, Li Shi had been waiting for them. As soon as they returned, she hurriedly asked, "How did it go?"

Gu Sang smiled and comforted Li Shi.

"Mother, it's alright, we've found out everything."

Gu Sang then told Li Shi everything, and after she finished speaking, she glanced at Li Rong again.

“I had an idea, but he disagreed.”

Li's worries were the same as Li Rong's. Seeing Li's distressed expression, Li Rong said, "We're all worried that you'll be captured and buried alive again!"

"Mother, don't listen to his nonsense. Nothing like that will happen. The matter has already been reported to the county magistrate, and he will definitely help us. I will be in no danger."

Gu Sang glanced at Li Rong. Fine, this person now completely distrusts her.

Li glanced at Gu Sang and said, "Sang Sang, you've found out everything and figured out what to do, right?"

"But Li Rong disagreed."

"Too risky."

Li Rong glanced at Gu Sang, then spoke to Madam Li.

Gu Sang is clearly gambling with his life. How can he tolerate this?

And most importantly, since the situation has escalated to this point, we still need to give them time to think carefully about how to handle it.

Gu Sang rolled her eyes as she thought about these things.

"I know what I'm doing, okay?"

Li Rong no longer wants to talk to Gu Sang at all. Gu Sang's so-called sense of propriety is risky, and who knows what kind of trouble it might cause.

However, with Li Shi present, Li Rong was afraid of frightening her, so he glanced at Gu Sang but didn't say anything more.

Gu Sang shrugged slightly.

She disagrees... then she'll talk about it later.

The sauerkraut fish restaurant actually saw its business boom even more because of these trivial family matters. Everyone was curious about the sauerkraut fish restaurant, and its business became very popular for a time.

Seeing this scene, Li asked Gu Sang, "Do you think this is a good thing or a bad thing?"

Gu Sang blinked.

"Making money is a good thing, and not making money is a bad thing."

They're just running a business, why should they care about so much? As long as there's money to be made, it's a good thing for Gu Sang, given the current situation.

After thinking about it, Li felt that it was indeed the case, so she stopped worrying about it.

However, this situation still requires everyone to think carefully.

It would be bad if something went wrong.

When the family was having lunch, Li told her eldest and second children to keep an eye on things so that nothing would happen.

Both of them indicated that they understood.

Gu Sang also glanced at Li Rong.

"You don't need to keep an eye on me, I won't do anything dangerous, but you can't let things in the city fall behind."

To prevent any trouble from happening to her, Li Rong hasn't left the house for the past two days and has been keeping a close eye on her.

Li also glanced at Gu Sang. This girl was capable of anything when she got crazy.

“Sangsang, I feel that no matter what happens, nothing is more important than life, so…”

So, are we just going to waste our time?

After Gu Sang finished speaking, she blinked.

Is there any necessary connection between these things?

Gu Sang looked at them, her gaze slowly turning serious.

"You all know the current situation of the third branch of the family. Since it's already like this, shouldn't we try our best? Or do you think that just getting by is enough?"

His words left everyone stunned.

“Sangsang, you…”

"Sangsang, we're just worried about you. We're afraid you might be in danger."

After Li finished speaking, she sighed again.

"Mother really doesn't ask for anything else, Mother only hopes that you are safe and well." As long as her children are healthy, she is already very content.

Everyone else looked at the mother and daughter, unsure of what to say.

Gu Sang was speechless after hearing what Li said.

She did have her own plans in mind. She relaxed slightly and said, "Mother, I know you're worried about me. I promise you I won't do anything dangerous, okay?"

Li remained silent, partly because she didn't quite trust Gu Sang's assurance. This girl had too many ideas; no one could be sure what she would do.

"How about this?" Li Rong looked at Gu Sang, then smiled and continued, "Now there's only one issue: if you agree to our request, we'll all go about our own business. What do you think?"

Gu Sang raised an eyebrow slightly after hearing Li Rong's words and said, "Tell me about it."

Now she doesn't dare to make any guarantees or be sure what they're thinking, and she doesn't want to say anything more.

"You promise you won't cause trouble for that landlord, and as for this matter, I'll handle it secretly. Can you agree to that?"

Gu Sang felt that this was somewhat far-fetched and asked, "Tell me what you plan to do?"

"You don't need to worry about what I do right now, just tell me if you can agree to it?"

Seeing Li Rong's serious expression, Gu Sang thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, I agree."

When Li Rong saw that Gu Sang had agreed, she finally felt relieved.

"Alright, I'll go to the county to continue my investigation in a bit. It won't delay anything."

Gu Sang pouted slightly, feeling that she had been led astray by them.

On the other hand, the Gu family is not so easily able to let go of this anger.

"Honey, are you saying... we're just going to let it go like this?" Yang Shi still felt uncomfortable thinking about how that little maid had scolded her so much.

Gu Yingfu listened to Yang's words, glanced at Yang, and then looked at the main house with his eyes.

"You think I don't want to? What do you expect me to do in this situation? Father doesn't approve of us causing trouble for the third branch of the family at all. What if something else goes wrong?"

Upon hearing this, a hint of resentment flashed in Yang's eyes.

"I really don't understand, what do you think Dad is really thinking?"

After saying that, Yang threw the vegetables in her hand onto the ground.

Just then, Madam Xie came out and, seeing Madam Yang's appearance, secretly chuckled. Madam Yang was always causing trouble, and most importantly, she wouldn't listen to anything anyone said. This time, she'd really come back to hurl a tantrum!
