Carrying a Lucky Charm, I Thrive with My Husband on the Road to Exile Chapter 196: No Need

Although Gu Kaiyuan wasn’t at the scene at the ti, he had already coaxed information out of Gu Anwei and the others.

At that ti, their father’s ruthlessness had already frightened Gu Antong and the others who witnessed everything.

Otherwise, Gu Antong wouldn’t have been so shocked as to develop a high fever.

Even if Gu Kaiyuan had known earlier that Bai Suihe had these good dicines, he wouldn’t have agreed to take them out.

Not only because he couldn’t explain the source, but also because he didn’t trust the Gu Family.

No one knew this family’s nature better than he did.

If the dicine he brought out could heal his mother’s wounds, he would definitely be questioned about the source and might even be used as a bargaining chip in a deal with the Third Prince.

Thinking about such potential consequences, Gu Kaiyuan held Bai Suihe’s hand even tighter, "You mustn’t take this dicine out. Even if we are to use it ourselves, we must weigh it carefully."

Bai Suihe glanced at her hand, and only then did Gu Kaiyuan quickly let go, seeing the red mark on the back of her hand, and apologized, "I lost my composure."

Bai Suihe said, "It’s alright, but I’ll listen to you and won’t take it out. Rest assured."

Bai Suihe also cherished this hard-earned second chance at life and dared not gamble on human nature, sothing that few have won from ancient tis until now.

She had just introduced the dicines in such detail actually to see what Gu Kaiyuan planned to do.

Fortunately, this man wasn’t overly ambitious and wouldn’t drag her into endless trouble.

Having taken out the dicine, it could no longer be put back, so Bai Suihe simply placed it in the cupboard with the dicine box.

"You can’t sleep tonight because of this matter."

Bai Suihe said, "I just suddenly rembered, there’s so much inside, sotis I don’t even rember what exactly is in there. Help rember a bit more, lately my mory doesn’t seem that good."

Bai Suihe thought of the saying that pregnancy dulls the mind for three years; she wondered if she was afflicted by this too.

"When we reach the next post station, let’s have a doctor take a good pulse reading." Gu Kaiyuan was also afraid of any changes.

"Let’s talk about it when we reach the next post station. At this rate, it’s uncertain how long until we reach it."

The books won’t describe it this clearly, but having experienced it firsthand, Gu Kaiyuan should know, "Do you still rember?"

Gu Kaiyuan said, "I rember, after passing through this forest, we’ll reach the post station."

Bai Suihe said, "...Is it really that close?"

Gu Kaiyuan smiled and touched his nose, "This forest isn’t small, and at today’s speed, it will take at least six or seven more days to get through."

"So far?" Bai Suihe couldn’t even imagine it; surely they were heading into the prival forest?

"There’s no other way; if we spurred our horses on hard, it would take two days to get through. However, with the rainy and snowy weather, it will naturally take longer." Gu Kaiyuan didn’t ntion that there were a few rounds of obstacles ahead. Although their numbers made them fearless, every halt was a delay of ti.

Having already entered, the two rested in the space. When they went out again, neither felt sleepy, so they sat by the fire, chatting idly.

In the latter half of the night, they even started preparing dry rations; Chun Xiang and the others were awakened by the aroma.

"Miss, haven’t you rested?" Dong i said angrily. Had Miss forgotten she was still pregnant? More importantly, why was Mr. Yan accompanying her in this frivolity?

Receiving the glare from the two maids, Gu Kaiyuan could only lower his head. They had rested well but forgot others weren’t aware of their situation.

Bai Suihe could only smile to diate, "You know I have nothing to do during the day and sleep over and over again. Sleeping too much leaves without any drowsiness.

Not to ntion dragging your young master into my nonsense; I’ll definitely sleep less during the day."

Dong i said, "...Miss, you’d better sleep. Spending a sleepless night and not sleeping during the day, how can your body endure it?"

Oh, it’s really difficult; it’s bad to sleep and worse not to. Miss was really giving the two maids a hard ti.

"Alright, alright, I’ll listen to you all. Quickly wash up, eat sothing, and prepare to set off."

Only then did Dong i and the others say no more. They hastened to pack up and drove Bai Suihe and Gu Kaiyuan into the carriage for rest.

Having missed them yesterday, Gu Kaiping ca again early this morning.

Gu Kaiyuan said, "Elder brother, do you need sothing?"

"Father needs you. I looked for you yesterday but didn’t find you. Why were you running to the rear escort team? Quickly co back with ; it’s better for a family to stay together. What will you do if those escorts cause trouble?"

Gu Kaiyuan smirked, "Elder brother, you are overthinking it. Did you forget the reason you couldn’t find yesterday?"

Gu Kaiping said, "..."

"Yesterday, I drank with Mr. Liu and two head escorts; they are all good people, willing to look out for us a bit more. Moreover, seeing your sister-in-law with a big belly is not easy, so they let us stay within their group, sparing us from shocks.

As for father calling , I think we have made it quite clear before. Does elder brother still wish for to go back?"

Gu Kaiyuan was gambling on Boss Gu’s greed. How could he let himself return to take a share?

"What we discussed before, of course, still holds. But no matter what, we are a family. Since you have such skills, you should look after the family."

Gu Kaiyuan shook his head and mocked, "Elder brother, very well calculated—no benefits for but rember for troubles.

Did you think my forehead has the word ’fool’ written on it?"

"Don’t say it like that; it’s not just my idea but father’s too."

Gu Kaiyuan said, "Does father not trust the escorts can protect everyone? Don’t forget, I am also a prisoner; when it really cos to a fight, can elder brother provide with weapons? Or expect to fight barehanded?

I borrowed weapons for hunting from them, and I didn’t go alone either; there were also escorts and Mr. Liu’s n.

Go back and tell father, I’m just a bit stronger than the average person, but when facing bandits, I have to hide too, can’t protect everyone."

Trying to use as a free fighter and morally coerce ? This ti, I won’t bite; let’s see what will they do.

"Father has sent to call you; won’t you go?"

Gu Kaiyuan pointed at the moving team, "I advise elder brother to hurry and catch up; otherwise, missing the convoy would make you a runaway."

At the sa ti, he felt disdain for Gu Kaiping. He had already made things so clear, yet Gu Kaiping still ca seeking discomfort repeatedly. With his emotional intelligence, how could he survive in officialdom in the future? Even if given the chance to return to the court, without Gu Antong leveraging the Third Prince’s influence, he would likely face the sa fate or even more catastrophic.
