Capítulo 1097: Chapter 1097: Gu Qiaoqiao Reunites with Her Family (Part 2)
Fortunately, nothing happened, otherwise, regardless of Gu Qiaoqiao’s reaction, he would have been a sinner of the Gu Family.
Luckily, luckily, with Qiaoqiao’s help, the old peach tree revealed a sign…
Otherwise, he would never have been able to overco this hurdle in his life.
The most surprising one here is the Old Clan Leader. He looked at the two people, his eyes showing a trace of suspicion. Could such coincidence really exist in this world?
Moreover, why did these two act as if they didn’t recognize each other?
Their great grandfathers were blood brothers—could it be that they never stayed in contact?
At this mont, Gu Qiaoqiao knew it wasn’t the ti to discuss other matters with Gu Muran. She quickly turned to look at the Old Clan Leader and said with a smile, “Clan Leader Grandpa, after their branch moved away from the Imperial Capital, due to so reasons, they never ca into contact again. I’ve only heard about them from Great Grandfather, but I really didn’t know this Gu Muran was my cousin. Maybe, this was truly fate. That’s why Peach Blossom Valley is a truly blessed place.”
The Old Clan Leader’s eyes squinted with joy upon hearing Gu Qiaoqiao praising Peach Blossom Valley as a blessed place, dispelling his doubts.
Living for so long, he knows well that there’s a saying in this world: ‘truth is stranger than fiction.’
Even though this isn’t storytelling or operatic, it still has a touch of destiny.
After all, this young man and Gu Qiaoqiao had never t before their encounter.
He sighed in relief, sharing the sa thoughts as Ling Nan did earlier. If a relative of the Gu Family got privately executed and burned, it would truly be a troubling situation.
However, in his heart, he knows that following the practices from decades ago, if soone was burned and then tossed into the mountains, who would know who was who?
But he couldn’t share such thoughts with these young ones.
Those were things of decades ago.
Back then, it was warti; New Nation hadn’t been established yet, and chaos dominated everything. Without rules, their clan wouldn’t have survived the turbulent tis.
Moreover, it wasn’t just them; nearly every prominent family was like this.
However, he’s also thankful in his heart, thinking that the old peach tree didn’t want him to commit a mistake and thus revealed a sign. He swore never to engage in such acts in this lifeti.
Since this Gu Muran is kin to the Imperial Capital’s Gu Family, he thus has connections with Ling Nan, and having connections with Ling Nan naturally ties him to Peach Blossom Valley.
The Old Clan Leader cheerfully let Ling Nan and his younger son support Gu Muran to Ling Nan’s house. After settling him on the first floor, he said a few words and then left.
At this ti, Gu Muran had already applied dicine, and after Xiao Wen checked his pulse, she smiled slightly and, looking up at Gu Qiaoqiao, said, “He’s fine now, no bones or internal injuries, just surface wounds. This young man’s physique is good; he’ll be bouncing back in no ti…”
“Thank you, Sister Xiao Wen,” Gu Muran said sweetly.
“No need to thank , we’re all family,” Xiao Wen replied with a smile, then stood up, glanced at the two, and said, “You two chat; I’ll go out for a walk with Ling Nan.”
Gu Qiaoqiao quickly stopped her, “Sister Xiao Wen, you and Ling Nan can stay here. You’re part of the Gu Family; there’s no need to keep things from you.”
“I know, I know, I just don’t have the patience to listen. When you’re done, I’ll just ask you,” Xiao Wen said carefreely.
Then she happily pulled Ling Nan out for a walk.
