Chapter 740: Surrender

“Yu ‘Er, after you return to the Gong family, you might have to face those who are scheming against each other in the capital.”

After the outsiders left, elder Gong said to Xiao Lingyu in a serious tone, “However, with your current status, you don’t need to curry favor with anyone. In the capital, you can do whatever you want. In short, if you meet someone who bullies you, you can bully them back. After all, you have grandfather and the Gong family backing you up!”

Gong Tianhao, who had his responsibilities taken away, said helplessly, “Grandfather, let me say these words. It’s only right and proper for a husband to protect his wife. Yu ‘Er, as long as you’re willing, you can do whatever you want in the capital. I guarantee that no one dares to go against you!”

Xiao Lingyu, “...”

Gong Tianhao continued, “Since you’ve returned to the Gong family, your identity is justified. Your identity can crush anyone. Don’t worry. If there’s really someone who offends you, I guarantee that they won’t live past tomorrow!”

Old Master Gong also said, “Yu ‘Er, your current identity is as sharp as a sword. Whoever bullies you, just go up and stab them!”

Xiao Lingyu,”...” She wasn’t a murderous maniac, so why would she go around stabbing people?

Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “Grandfather, Tianhao, do you think that I am someone who is so easy to bully? If people don’t provoke me, I won’t do anything to them. As you know, I have special abilities. If anyone dares to be bullied by me, I’ll punch them with one fist and kick them with a roundhouse kick. Let’s see what they can do to me!”

Gong Tianhao and Old Master Gong were stunned at first, and then they burst into laughter. “Haha, that’s right. How can our daughter-in-law be bullied so easily?” But then, Old Master Gong said very seriously, “Yu ‘Er, there are too many people in the capital. You can’t reveal that you have a spatial ability, understand?”

Gong Tianhao rolled his eyes but said very domineeringly, “Grandfather, Yu ‘Er has me to protect her. What’s there to be afraid of?”

Old Master Gong glared at Gong Tianhao, then called out sternly, “Gong Tianhao!”

Gong Tianhao quivered, and then his expression turned serious.

Old Master Gong immediately criticized sternly, “Gong Tianhao, don’t you know the dark side of human greed? If people found out Yu ‘Er had something that could strengthen one’s body, prolong one’s life, or even bring one back from the dead, do you think that the people above would be willing to let it go?

“Plus, there are many people with power who wants nothing more than an extended stay on Earth. If they found out about Yu ‘Er’s ability, do you think they’ll let her go?

“We are powerful, but we shouldn’t underestimate others. What if they all gang up on us? Are you sure you can protect your wife then?”

Anything could be predicted, but the hearts of the people were the hardest to predict! One second, they might be kind, but the next second, they might be evil.

No one could guarantee that they were 100% kind. Evil people might have a kind moment too.

After Gong Tianhao heard this, he was silent for a moment before he said seriously, “Grandfather, you’re right. I was too arrogant!”

Old Master Gong sighed and said calmly, “Yu ‘Er has such a wonderful thing on her. It’s a blessing and a curse!”

At this moment, Xiao Lingyu suddenly said, “Tianhao, we can cooperate with the government!”

Gong Tianhao and Old Master Gong looked at each other, and their eyes lit up.

Then, Gong Tianhao asked, “Yu ‘Er, what do you have in mind?”

Xiao Lingyu said, “Grandfather, Tianhao, I know that both of you used to be in the army and are part of the government. I know you have a sense of mission. Plus, this can’t be hidden forever. Instead of having the government as an enemy, we should try to pull them in as friends.”

Old master Gong nodded. “You are right.”

Then, Xiao Lingyu continued, “The spring water I have can cleanse the body. It can increase one’s physique and strengthen one’s body.”

When Xiao Lingyu said this, Gong Tianhao and Old master Gong immediately understood, “Yu ‘Er, you mean...”

Xiao Lingyu nodded and said, “That’s right.”

Old Master Gong and Gong Tianhao immediately fell into deep thought.

Just like what Xiao Lingyu said, they were once soldiers who had a deep sense of mission for the country. They knew the things in Xiao Lingyu’s hands would help the country. Plus, as Xiao Lingyu’s business expanded, it would grab the government’s attention eventually. So Xiao Lingyu’s idea to form a good relationship first was not that bad.

But...

This would expose Xiao Lingyu. This was their wife/granddaughter-in-law. Once such a shocking thing was revealed, it meant that she would be facing an even greater danger. This danger would not only come from within the country but also from all over the world!

Hence, they were unwilling to let Xiao Lingyu face such danger.

Gong Tianhao and Old Master Gong hesitated and pondered.

After a moment, old master Gong sighed and said seriously, “Then let me talk to the people above!”

Gong Tianhao called out, “Grandfather!” Obviously, he didn’t agree with this. Xiao Lingyu was his wife. He didn’t want his wife to be in any kind of danger.

He was powerful, but he wasn’t a god. He couldn’t do much if the government decided to crush them.

Xiao Lingyu immediately held onto Gong Tianhao’s hand and shook her head gently. Then, she smiled and said, “Tianhao, I’m not afraid of these dangers. I believe that you will definitely protect me, right? Plus, I won’t allow myself to be bullied. This is for our future.”

After hearing Xiao Lingyu’s words, Gong Tianhao stared at Xiao Lingyu for a moment before hugging her into his arms. He sighed and said, “You’ve already made your decision. What else can I do?”

His tone was filled with helplessness, approval, and love.

This was the person he liked. She was smart, beautiful, and decisive. She was a woman with principles, but she could be stubborn at times.

Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “I’m your wife. Of course, you have to abide by me.”

Gong Tianhao smiled. “Of course, my dear wife!”

Old Master Gong looked at the two of them, and his face turned red. He coughed and said, “Yu ‘Er, we still have to discuss this further.”

Gong Tianhao said first, “Grandfather, let me make it clear. We definitely can’t give Xiao Ling out. What we can give out is perhaps only the spring water!”

Xiao Ling was the jade spirit. They not only owed him a huge favor, but they had also long sinnce treated him as part of the family. They won’t sell him out.

Old Master Gong glanced at him and then used his two hands to support himself with his walking stick. He hit the ground heavily twice and said in a bad mood, “You don’t need to tell me that. Of course, I know that! Xiao Ling is so cute and sensible. I have already treated him as my own grandson. How can I give him away?”

Then, Old Master Gong said to Xiao Lingyu, “Yu ‘Er, don’t worry. I definitely won’t give Xiao Ling away. We’ll only offer them some water. They can take it or leave it!”

Old Master Gong was very domineering.

After Xiao Lingyu heard this, she smiled and explained, “Grandfather, Tianhao, it’s useless even if we give Xiao Ling away. Because Ling ‘Er told me that in this world, only my physique is compatible with the jade pendant, so only I can use the space in the pendant. Even if others get their hands on the pendant, it’ll only be a normal accessory to them. They can’t access the space inside.”

When the grandfather and grandson heard this, their expressions were filled with shock. However, they still asked suspiciously, “Is that really the case?”

“Yes,” Xiao Lingyu thought for a moment and said, “Let’s call Ling ‘Er back and ask him to clarify.”

“Yes, let’s do that!” The grandfather and grandson nodded and replied.
