The Zhou family’s ho was bustling that day, and Grandpa Xu had found a chef who prepared an exceptionally lavish dinner.
The chef was Huaxia, and his culinary skills were outstanding.
He was proficient in both northern and southern cuisines, allowing you to order whatever you’d like.
Moreover, the Zhou family had been quiet for quite a while, and on ordinary days, laughter rarely echoed through the hall.
But today was different; even Zhou Xia, who had just experienced heartbreak, was quite happy.
During this ti, Gu Qiaoqiao received a phone call with the great news that Gu Qianqian and Qin Xiaoyu had achieved top scores.
Both girls were admitted to the universities they had prioritized.
Gu Qianqian, just like in her past life, was accepted by Imperial Capital University, whereas Qin Xiaoyu was accepted by B University of Technology.
One is studying electronic information technology, and the other is studying materials and engineering.
They are both fields they actually enjoy.
Gu Qiaoqiao realized that these young girls have great foresight, studying professions with promising futures, so she congratulated them repeatedly and promised to bring them gifts when she returned, the ones they specifically asked for.
Not holding back at all.
Gu Qiaoqiao thought that tomorrow, Zhou Xia would take her shopping.
And after the auction ends, it was about ti for them to return ho; having been away for so long, she really started to miss ho.
Old Grand Master Qin was also thrilled to hear that Qin Xiaoyu was admitted to the University of Technology; after all, in the Qin Family, she was only the second person to get into such a prestigious university.
Of course, the first one was Qin Yize, the two kids from the eldest grandson’s family were both very promising.
Old Grand Master Qin asked Gu Qiaoqiao to tell Qin Xiaoyu that he would reward Xiao Yu when he returned.
Upon hearing this, Qin Xiaoyu was naturally overjoyed.
While the Qin family wasn’t lacking money, long-distance calls were really exorbitantly priced, so unless it was sothing crucial, both ended the call, knowing they’d all return in half a month.
Gu Qiaoqiao sort of regretted telling Danny about discovering his true identity as part of the Black Angels; not because she was worried about Danny, but because she was concerned about Zhou Xia, fearing that learning Danny didn’t entirely use her would change her mood.
In that case, it wouldn’t benefit Zhou Xia at all.
Knowing it was impossible now and severing all thoughts was actually a good thing.
Long pain is worse than short pain, this saying is quite logical.
Before this, Zhou Xia had always behaved well; after all, if you’re aware the other party is using you and even harming your family, there’s no way love, if it existed, would persist.
But human calculations cannot surpass divine ones; how could Gu Qiaoqiao know the Black Angels had this troubleso trait, clearly their clan’s actions aren’t straightforward, even ruthless sotis, but this side not only helped them but also was more powerful, so they yielded in face of absolute strength, yet deep down they remained unpleasant.
Of course, it’s not fair to judge everyone just by one rotten apple.
Gu Qiaoqiao found their female clan leader to be straightforward.
Which makes sense; if she wasn’t like that, she couldn’t have beco the leader of a clan and gotten her people to search for her for over a hundred years, she indeed had abilities, it’s just that those who followed her either weren’t here or had departed, naturally both good and bad coexisted, but ultimately, it was the Black Angels’ affair, Gu Qiaoqiao had no authority to intervene.
Amidst these chaotic thoughts, hopefully, everything returns to its normal track.
The night at Siluo Manor passed joyfully and pleasantly.
Before sleeping, Gu Qiaoqiao thought to herself, within one’s capabilities, doing things for others truly benefits both them and oneself.
Life needs this positive energy, this optimistic atmosphere, as people react to spiritual vigor.
It’s just unfortunate this ti that no information was obtained about Fong Lei and Sister Yan; after all, this wasn’t like being dostic, with constraints and inefficiency, as it wasn’t their domain.
Before going abroad, she had considered everything simpler.
Additionally, the rules of heaven and earth are highly suppressing here, Gu Qiaoqiao had photos of Gu Jianhua and Old Thief He, yet even with Tracking Talisman, she couldn’t find them, perhaps due to distance limitations, her talismans weren’t all-powerful, the sa goes for Fong Lei and Sister Yan, looks like their information will have to wait.
With slight regret, Gu Qiaoqiao fell into a deep sleep.
The following days beca much more relaxed, as the Zhou family’s servants gradually returned, though so with dubious intentions were dismissed, leaving only hardworking, taciturn mbers.
Old Master Qin didn’t go out wandering, and Gu Junbai was equally refrained, although their ages varied greatly, they shared many hobbies, spent ti discussing ancient and modern tea and chatting leisurely.
Nonetheless, Gu Qiaoqiao had nurous tasks; she also needed to buy gifts for Gu Qianqian, which took three days to complete, and once done, she breathed a sigh of relief, discovering that shopping is the most exhausting aspect, fatigue of mind, body, and spirit.
The sun was perfectly shining, a gentle breeze blowing, Siluo Manor enveloped in bird songs and flower scents, Xiao Bai acted like a mountain king, easily intimidating the small Sika Deer, which now followed wherever it went.
The Sika Deer longed to follow Gu Qiaoqiao, but under Xiao Bai’s imposing presence, it ekly trailed behind.
Thankfully, though Xiao Bai was a Divine Beast, by age estimation, it was rely like a seven or eight-year-old child, mostly playing around the manor, with large nearby predators not daring to approach even a step.
Thus, Sika Deer at Siluo Manor was incredibly safe.
Its courage was honed considerably.
With two days left until the auction, Gu Qiaoqiao planned to rest within the manor, taking ti to relax. Since she was staying in, Zhou Xia naturally kept her company, experiencing life she’d previously never known.
anwhile, Zhou Luoan and Zhou Han were quite busy these days, though it was unclear with what, but these matters fell beyond Gu Qiaoqiao’s concern.
In the afternoon, Gu Qiaoqiao took a lovely nap in the garden’s shade, waking up to stretch languidly, turning her head to see very rarely both Xiao Bai and Sika Deer beside her lounge chair.
Both also snoozing with eyes closed.
It offered a sense of serene tranquility.
Gu Qiaoqiao glanced at the western sky; she realized she had actually slept for over two hours...
