"Okay, okay, I'll go out now."
Rong Xin left the room but didn't leave immediately. Instead, she stood at the door staring into the room, feeling that Gu Rong was hiding something from her.
But the other party wouldn't let her listen, and she didn't dare to listen either.
After all, she knows her own character. If she hears something, she might not be able to keep her mouth shut and won't be able to hide it from Gu Qiang when he asks.
Rong Xin stood at the door for a while, her curiosity growing stronger.
She looked around to make sure Gu Qiang wasn't there before sitting down in the courtyard and keeping an eye on him.
Gu Rong glanced at the doorway before whispering to Gu Xing, "You didn't tell anyone what I told you before while I was away, did you?"
Gu Xing shook his head and said seriously, "No, no, I absolutely didn't say anything. I didn't say anything."
"Good boy," Gu Rong said, ruffling Gu Xing's hair.
"I'm the older brother, don't you dare touch my head," Gu Xing turned his head away, then raised his hand and rubbed Gu Rong's head: "So soft, hehe~".
"Alright, alright, put your hand down," Gu Rong said, pulling Gu Xing's hand away. She didn't understand why he always liked to rub her head, just like in later generations.
Gu Rong took out the box and patted it: "I'll keep this for now. We'll bury it together when we find a good place later."
Gu Xing nodded: "Yes, is there anything else, little sister?"
Thinking about what Ah Xi had said that day, Gu Rong asked Gu Qiang in a low voice, "During the days I was away,... did Dad do anything? Or did anything change?"
"No, he's been home these past few days, I haven't noticed anything wrong. Little sister, did Dad upset you?" Gu Xing tilted her head, thinking, "When he comes back tonight, I'll beat him up for you."
"No, no, I just missed him after not seeing him for a few days." However, looking at Gu Xing in front of her, Gu Rong also thought of Gu Xing in the future, as well as Han Xinyi and the others.
I wonder what her body is like in the future. If time stands still there, that would be fine, but if it flows, I wonder if Gu Xing and the others would be worried seeing them unconscious.
Seeing Gu Rong staring blankly, Gu Xing gently nudged her: "Rongbao, I suddenly remembered something. One night, Dad said he was working overtime and didn't come home all night."
"Really?" Gu Rong frowned. She thought that Gu Qiang had been gone for a whole night and they hadn't seen him at the beach, so there was only one possibility: he had gone to Qingren Lane.
The Rong family just left, and Gu Qiang is already acting so blatantly. What will happen in the future...?
Gu Rong frowned and tapped Gu Xing's shoulder: "Brother, you must protect Mom from now on, okay?"
"Yes, yes, I will not only protect Mom, but I will also protect you. No matter what happens, don't be afraid, your brother will always protect you," Gu Xing said firmly, holding Gu Rong's hand.
"Okay, I believe you. Let's go out now." Gu Rong put the box into her spatial storage, then took Gu Xing's hand and walked out.
Rong Xin sat idly in the courtyard, feeling like a kitten was scratching at her heart. Just as she was wondering whether to go inside, Gu Rong and Gu Xing came out.
Seeing Rongxin in the yard, Gu Rong excitedly ran over: "Mom, what are you doing here? Aren't you going to work?"
"Go, wait for me to take your brother to school first," Rong Xin picked up Gu Rong and tapped her nose: "You'll be going to school next semester too, do you want to go to school with your brother?"
Hearing the word "school" gave Gu Rong a headache: "No, I don't want to go to school, I just want to stay home and play."
Listening to Gu Rong's words, Rong Xin felt as if she were seeing the handwriting from the past. Back then, she also didn't want to go to school and was beaten by her father.
Rong Xin pinched Gu Rong's nose and said softly, "Okay, okay, play, play. You can play at home. If you need anything, go find the aunt next door, okay?"
Gu Rong pushed Rong Xin's leg to lead her away, saying, "Okay, okay, you take your brother there. I'll be good at home."
After the two left, Gu Rong went back to her room and lay down until Rong Xin returned before getting up.
After dinner, Gu Qiang saw Rong Xin washing up in the kitchen, then carried Gu Rong to her room.
After placing Gu Rong on the bed, Gu Qiang closed the door and asked in a low voice, "Rongbao, before your grandfather passed away, did he really not say anything to you? Or did he leave anything behind?"
Seeing Gu Qiang's persistent attitude, Gu Rong really wanted to give him a big sinus.
But for now, they have no choice but to endure it, otherwise, after she leaves, Gu Rong and the others will not have an easy time.
Gu Rong smiled innocently and stared at Gu Qiang: "Really, no, and Grandpa passed away suddenly. I don't know anything. Do you know anything? Or should Dad give me a hint?"
Listening to Gu Rong's words, Gu Qiang felt that Gu Xi was already greeting her.
Smiling, she took Gu Rong's hand and said, "It's some treasures, like where to hide things? And where there's gold and silver jewelry, or things left for you or your mother?"
“A treasure? Let me think about it,” Gu Rong tilted her head, smiled and shook her head at Gu Qiang: “If we’re talking about treasures, then I’m the only one. Am I a treasure? My grandfather told me that I am his greatest treasure.”
Gu Qiang, who had initially held some hope, only felt angry upon hearing Gu Rong's words.
But his men sent word that the Rong family had already left, yet they didn't even know how the Rong family had left, let alone where the treasure was.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have thought of asking a little girl.
Looking at Gu Rong, who knew nothing and was still smug, Gu Qiang really wanted to slap him.
Unfortunately, everything is not yet in hand, so we have to wait.
"Yes, our Rongbao is our precious child. Rongbao, get some rest. Daddy's going out to find your mom." Gu Qiang smiled as he left, but his face turned serious the moment he stepped out.
He had just come out when Rong Xin came out of the kitchen. Looking in the direction he had come from, Rong Xin couldn't help but frown: "Did you go to find Rong Bao?"
Gu Qiang gave an awkward laugh, then said, "It's nothing. She just looked tired, so I took her back to her room to rest."
Gu Qiang stepped forward, took Rong Xin's hand, and led her towards the room: "You must be tired after a long day at work, so go wash up and go to bed early."
"Okay, you should go to sleep early too," Rong Xin glanced at Gu Qiang, then quickly walked towards her room.
Gu Qiang glanced at Rong Xin's figure, then turned and walked towards the door.
After leaving the courtyard and walking out of the alley, Gu Qiang quickly turned into the alley next door.
Looking at the two people inside, Gu Qiang waved to them, and then the three of them went into the room next door.
