Upon hearing this, Ye Zhi didn’t think much more and chuckled, "When the ti cos, we’ll see what Lele wants. Whether she wants to marry or have soone marry into the family, I’ll let her decide."
Gong Juechen imdiately said, "I’ll go with what you say. You let her decide, and I’ll let her decide as well."
Ye Zhi didn’t say anything, but the corners of her mouth couldn’t help but lift a bit more. Although there were tis she didn’t fully trust Gong Juechen’s words, she still quite liked it when he whispered sweet nothings to her.
An Jing chatted with Ye Zhi for a while before returning to the mansion.
...
Gong Juechen and Ye Zhi discussed and decided to set off for Slayer Tower in four days. Gong Juechen first visited Gong Juese before going to the mansion to inform An Jing and the others of his departure plans.
Gong Juechen intended to keep it a secret from Gong Juese, naturally not telling her that he was going back to Slayer Tower. He rely said to Gong Juese that he was returning to Nan Shen, to the mountain where he once lived with her and their master.
Gong Juese believed him but was quite displeased, "Brother, you’re leaving behind! You promised to always stay by my side!"
Gong Juechen found it amusing, "You also promised to always protect , but after you got together with Lanlan, you ditched your big brother. You don’t care, you even let Lanlan hit . Clearly, it was you who left first, and now you’re blaming ."
"Hehe..." Gong Juese laughed dryly, refraining from urging Gong Juechen not to abandon her, and instead said, "Just make sure to visit often!"
"Don’t worry, I’ll co back and see you often." With that, Gong Juechen took out a stack of silver notes from his pocket and handed it to her. "Keep these safe. Since I won’t be around, I can’t give you money like I used to, so I’m giving you extra this ti."
Gong Juese accepted it as a matter of course, "Brother, I don’t really lack money. Last ti, the Emperor gave quite a lot of things as well, but since you’re giving it to , I’ll take it."
Gong Juechen was aware that Su Chengyu had given Gong Juese so things, but chose not to comnt on it.
He rely said, "Anyway, make sure you take good care of yourself. You’re my only sister, you need to live well. If things don’t work out with Lanlan, don’t be afraid, brother will take care of you."
"Hmm, I’m not depending on him now. I have my own money, though most of it cos from you. But brother, why do you always ntion things not working out between and my husband? Can’t you wish well? I really do like my husband, he’s so handso."
"You’re so heartless! How am I not wishing you well? I’m just saying, and now you’re turning it on ." Gong Juechen pretended to be angry.
"Alright, alright, brother. Let’s say it was my mistake, okay?" Gong Juese imdiately hugged Gong Juechen’s arm, acting coy.
In this world, the one who treated her the best was her brother. No one was better to her than her brother.
At this mont, ng Lanqing walked in.
Upon entering, ng Lanqing saw his wife cozily holding her elder brother-in-law’s arm and acting spoiled, his jealousy surged. Without a word, he just heavily coughed.
Seeing this, Gong Juese quickly let go of Gong Juechen’s arm and switched to holding ng Lanqing’s arm, cheerfully saying, "Husband, let tell you, my brother and sister-in-law are going back to our old place, the mountain where my brother and I used to live with our master."
