Unexpectedly, Gu Qingfeng’s words stoked the fire: “Just throw away all these useless old clothes; when we get to the Imperial Capital, I’ll buy you a whole house of…”
These words struck a sore spot for Lady Yu.
For fifty years, that’s how she had lived.
Therefore, an infuriated Lady Yu kicked out Gu Qingfeng, who wished he could gag himself.
All these were trivial matters.
With a bit of tolerance, they would pass.
So she went about her business as usual.
But she couldn’t afford to delay for too long here.
Thus, in five days, everything was ready.
The train ticket was for the day after tomorrow.
Heading straight to the provincial city.
This ti, they were going to Stone Town.
And ever since Gu Qiaoqiao returned, this was the first ti she had seen Qin Yize.
These past few nights, she had been visiting her Great Grandma, talking and chatting with her.
That morning, while Gu Qiaoqiao was still asleep, she was woken up by her Great Grandma.
“Qiaoqiao, Ah Ze is here, says he has sothing to discuss with you.”
Qin Yize?
Gu Qiaoqiao opened her eyes groggily, only then recalling that very important matter.
The Gold Jade Stone in Da Jiang!
Qin Yize had promised her that he would check the riverbed before they left.
Gu Qiaoqiao sat up and turned over.
The room was small and inconvenient for a guest, so Qin Yize waited for Gu Qiaoqiao sitting on a wooden stump in the courtyard.
He then spoke softly with Great Grandma.
After Gu Qiaoqiao had washed up, Qin Yize took her to the base.
With a cloth bag and a change of clothes, Qin Yize and Gu Qiaoqiao went to the east bank of Da Jiang.
It still looked the sa as before.
Only the trees on the bank had grown greener.
Qin Yize quickly assessed the position and decisively told Gu Qiaoqiao, “Wait for on the shore.”
He had many things to attend to and couldn’t afford to spend too much ti here.
After checking for the Gold Jade Stone, he still had to visit the regint headquarters.
Having said this, Qin Yize took off his shoes and shirt and walked toward the riverbank.
With only a pair of trousers on, Qin Yize’s well-built body and smooth muscle lines exuded a srizing strength. Every step he took radiated an irresistible male pheromone.
Feeling her face heat and her heart pound, Gu Qiaoqiao hurriedly averted her gaze.
She even forgot to remind him to be careful.
When she looked back up, Qin Yize’s figure had already disappeared from sight.
Gu Qiaoqiao couldn’t help but walk to the river’s edge.
Due to a heavy rainstorm a few days earlier, the water level had risen, and the river was much murkier than the last ti she had been there.
Gu Qiaoqiao knew Qin Yize was a good swimr.
She also knew he wore Wolf’s Fang around his neck, which would keep him safe.
But as she stared at the muddy, tumbling river water, she couldn’t help but worry.
However, on the way there, she had already told him to stay in the shallow area and not to go deep.
If there was no Gold Jade Stone, then there was no need to search the depths.
She was aware that Qin Yize wasn’t concerned about these warnings.
He could hold his breath underwater for ten minutes.
And with Wolf’s Fang to protect him, he could probably stay for half an hour without any issue.
Gu Qiaoqiao fluctuated between reassuring herself everything was fine and worrying.
But her eyes were fixed on the water’s surface all the while.
And indeed, just as Gu Qiaoqiao had thought, the mont Qin Yize dived in, an invisible light gently enveloped him.
And he felt more comfortable than ever before.
