Fang Liang smiled slightly at Gu Qiaoqiao, took out a box from his bag, opened it, and after Gu Qiaoqiao took a glance, she widened her eyes in surprise, "This tree gall, it must be over a thousand years old?"
"Yes, this is sothing Uncle Sima and I stumbled upon in another place. Uncle Sima gave these two tree galls, which grew on an old tree, just a pair, on the left and right sides, already over a thousand years old. As I don’t have much else to offer as a grand-uncle, I’ll give these two tree galls to Xiao Bao and Xiao Bei as a gift for eting them."
This item is indeed very precious.
Especially since such tree galls are almost impossible to find now.
Not to ntion those over a thousand years old.
Trees without spiritual energy cannot produce such things.
And judging by the sheen, it seems to be the long-lost phoenix tree.
It’s unknown where they found it.
Gu Qiaoqiao sincerely said, "Uncle Fang, I appreciate your intention, but since you encountered it, it’s fate, and this thing is a treasure. Keeping it by your side would benefit your health."
Fang Liang looked at Gu Qiaoqiao, saying leisurely, "Qiaoqiao, although your uncle doesn’t have anything valuable to offer, he never cared much for these things. These are for the two children, so please accept them; since I had this thought, it proves that these things are destined for the two kids."
Gu Qiaoqiao suddenly rembered the Phoenix Clan’s sacred object, Fang Liang didn’t know his leg had a chance of recovery then, and Elder Sima hadn’t appeared yet, but he didn’t hesitate to give such a precious thing to Xiao Wen.
Xiao Wen chuckled beside her, "Qiaoqiao, this is sothing Brother Fang is giving to Xiao Bao and Xiao Bei, don’t decline, just accept it on behalf of the two kids."
Gu Qiaoqiao no longer hesitated and happily received the box, "Alright, then let thank Uncle Fang on behalf of Xiao Bao and Xiao Bei."
Seeing Gu Qiaoqiao accept it happily, Fang Liang was also very pleased, setting aside how relations with Gu Zhixing would proceed in the future. Just focus on Qin Yize and Gu Qiaoqiao for now.
Though he indeed didn’t want to stay here for too long.
Fang Liang stood up, "I’ll be off now, still have so matters to handle."
Knowing Fang Liang’s disputes with the Gu Family, Gu Qiaoqiao didn’t insist on keeping him, and together with Xiao Wen escorted Fang Liang outside the main entrance, though Gu Qiaoqiao curiously asked, "Uncle Fang, have you thought about how to explain it when you return?"
"Outwardly, I’ll just say I’ve fitted the world’s best prosthesis, nothing more."
As for the real reason, only the closest people know, and they absolutely wouldn’t tell others. Besides, even if it was ntioned to others, they wouldn’t believe it unless they saw it firsthand. But who is Fang Liang, anyway? Not to ntion the Fang Family’s status in Jinling City, even Fang Liang himself, not just anyone can approach him, and no one would dare lift his trousers to see if his leg is real or fake.
"Uncle Fang, are you free tomorrow? Ah Ze and I would like to invite you for dinner."
Fang Liang thought for a mont, "Tomorrow I need to et so friends, then head back to Jinling City; too much ti has been wasted, I have many things to do."
"Alright then, let’s do it when you have ti."
Fang Liang looked at Xiao Wen, smiling with his eyes, "Xiao Wen, if Uncle Sima doesn’t return tonight, I suspect he’s gone to Sky Sea City."
Xiao Wen sighed, this father really trusts his daughter, after eting once and saying a few words, upon hearing that Gu Junbai is in Sky Sea City, he hurriedly left.
She even ntioned going together, yet he couldn’t wait.
But she’s busy here and can’t leave.
A few more words were exchanged, then Fang Liang walked briskly away from Gu Garden.
Once Fang Liang was out of sight, Gu Qiaoqiao and Xiao Wen withdrew their gaze.
Closing the door, the two walked leisurely.
The autumn afternoon sunshine bright and warm, golden leaves covered the branches, so blown off by the wind, gently floating down to the ground.
The past few days, a new idea ford in Gu Qiaoqiao’s mind.
However, first, she needs to discuss with Qin Yize; no, she should explore its feasibility.
She cast aside her thoughts, looked at Xiao Wen, "Sister Xiao Wen, how are things with Chu Chengfeng?"
If this was asked before, Xiao Wen would feel a bit shy, but the two have been together for quite so ti now. It’s not the bashful beginning anymore.
To be fair, Xiao Wen wasn’t exactly bashful initially either.
"I wanted to discuss this matter with my dad, but before I could say much, he hurried off. You heard what Brother Fang said earlier, he’s probably already on the train."
Her father doesn’t have a phone, so there’s no way to contact him, but Xiao Wen isn’t anxious.
"Have you been to Chu Chengfeng’s house?"
Unsure if Qin Yize has been, but Gu Qiaoqiao hasn’t.
"Been a few tis." Xiao Wen said, furrowing her brow slightly.
"Why? Sothing wrong with his house?" Xiao Wen pondered for a mont then replied, "No problems, just feels like his mother is a bit strange."
"Strange how?" Gu Qiaoqiao asked curiously.
"Specifically how strange, I can’t really say. You know I didn’t have a mother growing up, and it’s only after coming to Gu Garden, being with your mom, that I learned what mother-daughter interactions are like."
Thus, she couldn’t articulate that feeling.
"Does his mom dislike you?" Gu Qiaoqiao frowned.
"Not exactly dislike, just so indescribable feeling, seeming caring yet slightly detached. And this feeling isn’t towards , but towards his son, Chu Chengfeng."
Recalling the spiritual energy fluctuation on Chu Chengfeng, Gu Qiaoqiao and Xiao Wen exchanged a glance.
Could Chu Chengfeng not be a child of the Choo Family?
This question they’ve pondered before, though never seriously considered.
And certainly wouldn’t discuss in front of Chu Chengfeng.
"Forget it, don’t think about it, as long as the two of you are together and his parents don’t object, it’s not worth worrying."
Xiao Wen wasn’t bothered, "Anyway, my dad doesn’t know about this yet, let’s wait and see after he finds out."
Then Xiao Wen pointed towards Lian Yuhong’s courtyard, "Qiaoqiao, your two little treasures are too adorable, I must go see them."
Then hurriedly walked ahead, being more eager than Gu Qiaoqiao, the actual mother.
In the evening, Gu Qiaoqiao shared her gradually perfected idea, inspired by Qin Yize, over the past few days.
She was inspired by Qin Yize to co up with it.
Qin Yize looked at Gu Qiaoqiao with appreciation, indeed, the Gu Family is now quite large and prosperous.
