Rongxin didn't want the child to worry about such trivial matters, so she smiled and shook her head: "It's nothing, I was just thinking about something."
Gu Xing, being just a child, naturally couldn't see anything else and naturally agreed with what Rong Xin said.
But Gu Rong only appears to be a child, and knowing everything that happened later, it's hard not to guess what Rong Xin is worried about.
Holding Rongxin's hand, Gu Rong stopped challenging the rules and simply said, "Mom, no matter what happens, my brother and I will always be on your side. We will always be with you."
"Yes," Rong Xin was willing to stay, partly because of Gu Qiang, but mostly because of Gu Rong.
Because of her unique destiny, when Gu Rong was born, Master Zhen came and said that no matter what happened in the future, she could only stay at home. If she really left, her life would be in danger.
She didn't believe it before, and even considered letting Gu Rong go with her parents.
But a few days later, Gu Rong developed those symptoms. When she went to Master Zhen's place this time, he said something similar: "Her destiny lies within, not without. If she leaves, she will be completely devoid of life."
Although she didn't know why, she dared not gamble, even if it meant exchanging her own life for Gu Rong's.
He carried Gu Rong in one arm and held Guan Yi's hand with the other as they returned to the room. He put her on the bed and said, "You two play here. Mom will go cook and call you when it's done."
"Uh-huh".
After Rong Xin left, Gu Rong nudged Gu Xing and said, "Brother, go and close the door. I have something very important to tell you."
"Oh, oh," Gu Xing said, though she didn't know what to say. But she listened to her sister and went over to close the door, then obediently locked it behind her.
After sitting on the bed, she looked at Gu Rong obediently: "Sister, what do you want to say?"
Gu Rong took out the box that Rong Liancheng had given her from behind her back, opened it to reveal what was inside: "This was given to me by my maternal grandfather. The treasure inside is for my dowry, but I'm afraid I'll forget it, so I plan to hide it with my brother and take it out when I grow up."
Gu Xing tilted her head, staring wide-eyed at the gold bars inside: "(⊙o⊙) Wow, little sister, you have so much gold! Did Grandpa give it to you? Why didn't Grandpa give it to me?"
Gu Rong explained in a low voice, "Only girls need a dowry when they get married. Boys don't need one. Also, my grandfather gave me a treasure. Once I put this treasure up there, no one else can see it."
"Can't I see it either?" Gu Xing tilted her head and thought for a moment. "But if I can't see it either, and you can't find it later, then I won't be able to find it either, right?"
Then we'll never find it again. If we never find it again, then it's lost. Does that mean my sister can't get married? If she can't get married, then…”
Gu Xing, who sounded like he was reciting a tongue twister, was immediately covered by Gu Rong's hand: "Brother, stop reciting, it hurts my head."
"Headache? Then I'll go call Mom and take you to the hospital," Gu Xing said, getting out of bed to call Rong Xin.
Seeing his expression, Gu Rong grabbed Gu Xing's arm and said, "I'm fine. Just don't say anything from now on. Also, remember what I say and do as I say, understand?"
This time, Gu Xing was obedient and didn't say anything, only nodding heavily to indicate that he understood.
If she could, Gu Rong wouldn't even want to tell Gu Xing about the existence of this thing.
It's quite obvious that all the letters Rongxin left before she left will eventually end up in this place.
Since Rongxin wasn't told about this, she couldn't possibly wait two or three years before going back.
The reason it's impossible is that she can't stay here and watch Rongxin die little by little, and she doesn't want to see Gu rape his scheme succeed.
She had experienced that feeling of helplessness once before, and she didn't want to go through it again.
She couldn't control it the last time, but this time she clearly has the ability, yet she's restricted and unable to control it, which she probably finds even more unacceptable.
Therefore, the letters Rong Xin left behind could only have been put in by Gu Xing, and it could only be him.
So she could only tell Gu Xing about it and let him take the final control. As for whether it would work out, that was up to Gu Xing.
Seeing Gu Xing's serious expression, Gu Rong spoke again, but this time she was even more serious: "If this thing is discovered, and since the things Grandpa gave me are inside, even if you show it to others, they won't be able to see it, but I will die, understand?"
"Mmm," Gu Xing heard how serious it was and didn't want his sister to die, his eyes reddened: "Waaah~ I won't say anything, sister, don't die."
Seeing his pitiful appearance, Gu Rong couldn't help but rub his head and gently comfort him, saying, "I won't die if you don't tell me. After I give it to you, if you want to hide it, hide it in the house in the north of the city, in the room without windows."
And the things your mom gives you later, if you think they're important, you can put them in there too, but no one else can find them, okay?
Gu Xing nodded vigorously, her eyes filled with determination: "Don't worry, little sister, I will hide it well and won't let anyone find out. I definitely won't tell Mom and Dad, I promise."
Gu Rong carefully gave some more instructions, and after making sure Gu Xing remembered them, she put the things away.
The reason we're not giving it to you now is because we want to see how things develop before giving it to you.
Gu Xing watched her put the things in the cabinet and looked at Gu Rong with some concern: "Rongbao, this cabinet isn't locked. Won't Mom find out?"
I remember there was a mouse hole in my room, and it was a big one. Shall we put this box inside the mouse hole?
Gu Rong, who was initially somewhat relieved, became worried again upon hearing this, fearing that if she gave the box to Gu Xing later, he would put it in that rat hole.
After all, the mouse hole is so big, if this box is put in, it might be dragged away by those mice with keen noses.
Gu Rong put the box into her spatial storage and turned to look at Gu Xing seriously: "This thing can also be used to put mouse holes, so it must be buried in the ground, understand? Otherwise, if a mouse pulls it away, you will never see me again."
Seeing that she had said something wrong again and upset her younger sister, Gu Xing lowered her head and whispered, "Okay, I know."
Gu Rong was afraid that he wouldn't put the mouse in the hole, but in some other hole, so she gave him several more instructions.
Gu Rong only stopped lecturing them when Rong Xin called them to go eat.
At the factory, Gu Qiang had just come out of the factory building and was heading to his lover's place when the gatekeeper called out to him, "Gu Qiang, come here."
Gu Qiang, puzzled, went over and asked, "What's wrong, Uncle? Is something the matter?"
The security guard explained directly: "Your wife just came to the factory looking for you. She asked me to tell you that she's cooking lunch for you at home, so remember to come back for lunch."
Upon hearing that Rong Xin had come to the factory, Gu Qiang's heart leaped into his throat.
