Originally, Qin Yize, who was half-asleep, tightened his grip around Gu Qiaoqiao after hearing her words and whispered behind her back, "He shared so amusing stories with old comrades, asked about my situation in the troops, and when we might let him hold a great-grandchild..."
Gu Qiaoqiao elbowed Qin Yize’s chest, but he remained unmoved. He was slightly more awake now and chuckled softly, asking helplessly, "Qiaoqiao, what do you want to hear?"
"Did Great Grandfather really not request anything from you?"
"No," Qin Yize shook his head, kissed the hair of his little wife, and said tenderly, "Qiaoqiao, don’t overthink it, just get a good night’s sleep. We have to wake up early tomorrow..."
It seems that if she didn’t bring it up herself, Qin Yize would never ntion these things to her.
Besides, it’s not a big deal.
She could even let go of Bai Yun, let alone a sowhat arrogant grand-aunt. She knows in her heart that when Grandma Qin, who is now unable to walk, can walk briskly, Old Grand Master Qin might have already been thinking about this, but he never said it. If it were soone else, they would have spoken up long ago.
Gu Qiaoqiao used to not pay much attention to this matter, but now with her growing abilities and increasing experiences, her life becoming happier, it seems many things Gu Qiaoqiao has already let go.
Gu Qiaoqiao doesn’t know the state of Qin Sisi’s legs; she hasn’t asked and no one has told her. However, Gu Qiaoqiao thinks Qin Sisi and Grandma Qin are different, wanting to return to Grandma Qin’s state isn’t that easy, but so improvent is still possible.
The two slept in each other’s arms, fitting together like gears. Qin Yize’s hand rested on Qiaoqiao’s waist, while her hand lay on his. At this mont, Gu Qiaoqiao’s fingers moved slightly, her expression contemplative.
Since Heaven granted her this ability, and the thought suddenly occurred to her, she doesn’t mind accompanying Old Grand Master Qin on a trip abroad.
So Gu Qiaoqiao directly said, "Ah Ze, does Great Grandfather want to go abroad to see his grand-aunt? I’ll accompany him there..."
Qin Yize was fully awake then.
His gaze deepened as he gently rubbed his jaw against his wife’s hair, his heart filled with emotion and warmth.
He had once heard from his mother that his grand-aunt looked down on Qiaoqiao, thinking Qiaoqiao wasn’t worthy, so she didn’t bother to talk with her.
Even Qin Sisi thinks so now, because she believes Qin Yize could be with soone better.
And the grand-aunt is living abroad, making phone calls isn’t convenient, let alone having conversations. Besides, the impression she left with Qin Yize was just the person in the photo, and a brief eting when he and Qiaoqiao got married, claiming deep feelings was really out of the question,
So he never ntioned his grand-aunt in front of Gu Qiaoqiao.
And Gu Qiaoqiao never asked about things regarding the grand-aunt.
Thinking back, this clever little girl had long known about the grand-aunt’s attitude towards her.
Last year, Great Grandfather privately talked with him about this matter. They both knew Qiaoqiao had magical hands. At that ti, Great Grandfather wanted Qiaoqiao to go abroad to see if his only daughter could stand again, but Qin Yize refused, knowing that once he and Great Grandfather asked, Gu Qiaoqiao wouldn’t refuse. Yet he didn’t want things to be this way.
Qiaoqiao had no responsibility or obligation to take care of the grand-aunt.
Especially towards soone who still looks down on her.
But back then, Great Grandfather rely had a thought. He surely understood his daughter’s attitude towards Gu Qiaoqiao, so he never ntioned it again after that conversation. Today’s attempt to say it, Qin Yize knew what it was about, but still, Old Grand Master Qin didn’t bring it up.
Yet, who would have thought the kind and smart Qiaoqiao still saw through it.
He spoke softly, "Qiaoqiao, I don’t agree with you going. The grand-aunt is proud and has lived abroad for years; she’s not the kind of elder you imagine. I don’t want you to feel unhappy in any way."
At this mont, Gu Qiaoqiao turned around, their eyes t, and under the gentle moonlight, their thoughts rged instantly. Qin Yize sighed deeply and gently caressed his beloved wife’s face, whispering, "Qiaoqiao, you’re too soft-hearted."
"Ah Ze, I’m not soft-hearted. I only realized this matter during dinner. Honestly, I don’t have much impression of your grand-aunt, nor do I care about her view of . However, I am doing this for Great Grandfather; after all, that’s his only daughter. To put it bluntly, if Grand-aunt doesn’t return to the country, their etings are becoming rarer, and also, there’s another thing..."
"What is the other thing?" Qin Yize asked in surprise.
"We’ve confird that the Blue and White Three-legged Cauldron is in the sa country as the grand-aunt. I want to retrieve this national treasure on this trip."
"That’s even less possible. It’s too dangerous. Overseas is not like ho, language barriers, and many things can’t be smoothly communicated. Moreover, abroad is not the peaceful world we imagine; it’s chaotic there too." Qin Yize’s expression changed, denying firmly without even thinking.
"Ah Ze, if I can go this ti, I will call Elder Shen, and he will certainly send so people to help then."
Qin Yize gazed at Gu Qiaoqiao, "If it’s simply to visit the grand-aunt and then return, in principle, I agree. Having you accompany Great Grandfather gives peace of mind. Besides, even though the grand-aunt is proud, with you accompanying Great Grandfather, she can’t do anything to you, but if you want to reclaim the national treasure as well, it becos truly dangerous. I don’t think Elder Shen would consent to you going."
Gu Qiaoqiao felt incredibly soft-hearted; she knew Qin Yize cared deeply, but to the extent of treating her like a fragile doll made her speechless, as her powers were indeed strong.
Gu Qiaoqiao teasingly said, "Ah Ze, if I accompany Great Grandfather abroad, far from ho, do you know what I’ll do?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Yize suddenly bowed his head, then flipped over, pressing Gu Qiaoqiao down, kissing her fiercely on her red lips.
The gentle breeze suddenly turned into a hurricane, catching Gu Qiaoqiao off guard, yet Qin Yize’s kiss, though domineering, was tender and lingering, making Qiaoqiao’s body soften instantly...
