Gu Teng smiled at Yunbao and said, “Go and do what you want to do. Help others like your mother back then. That’s a very happy thing.”
She recalled the days when she was training. Although there were pain and setbacks, she was very satisfied to be able to help others. Therefore, she began to accept the fact that Yunbao would be injured.
She was willing to see things from Yunbao’s perspective, so she naturally understood Yunbao’s feelings.
Seeing that Gu Teng had relaxed and was no longer as tense as before, everyone heaved a sigh of relief. Su Tao said energetically, “Then what should we do for our Yunbao’s birthday banquet? Should we take advantage of today’s good day to draw a lot or something?”
Xiao Jing stood up and said, “This is also a good method. Leave everything to fate to decide.’
“l don’t even know when you believed in fate?” Gu Teng asked.
Yunbao quickly replied, “Dad has always believed it. Every time I’m conflicted about whether to eat biscuits or cake, Dad will let me draw lots, but I always draw a blank lot. Dad said that God doesn’t want me to eat it.’
Everyone looked at Xiao Jing in surprise. They did not expect him to lie to Yunbao like this.
Xiao Jing explained, “Yunbao isn’t old enough for her teeth to change. It’ll hurt if she has cavities, so I want her to eat less of these sweet things.”
Although this was out of goodwill, everyone still judged him for lying to a child. They unilaterally announced that he had lost the right to propose a birthday banquet, making Xiao Jing dejected.
Gu Luo lowered her head and looked at Yunbao. “What kind of birthday banquet does our Yunbao want?”
Yunbao thought for a moment and said, “l want Mom, Dad, and Uncle to accompany me. Let’s have fun for a day.”
For Yunbao, the blessings and cakes of strangers were not important. She only wanted to live happily now.
Hearing Yunbao’s answer, everyone laughed. Compared to those grand ceremonies, family was indeed happier.
Gu Lin decided. “Then let’s go to the amusement park on Yunbao’s birthday.”
No one objected to this decision. Yunbao jumped up happily and said, “I’m so looking forward to it.”
The life of the Gu family was naturally harmonious. However, countless people were secretly watching them. Chen Yue was one of them.
She relied on the medicine to hold Bai Hao in her hand. As long as she asked, he would offer anything. Furthermore, she had regained her appearance. She looked at her face in the mirror and smiled. “That medicine is indeed magical. I’m really getting more and more beautiful. Even that Gu Teng is inferior to me.”
This was not an exaggeration. Under the effect of the potion, Chen Yue’s face became more and more beautiful. It had an inhuman demonic beauty.
Bai Hao looked at Chen Yue in fascination. He had always been infatuated with her because of the medicine, and now he was even more mesmerized by her beauty. He wanted nothing more than to dig out his heart and offer it to her.
After admiring her beauty, Chen Yue asked, “Has anything happened to the Gu family recently?”
“l heard that the daughter of the Gu family’s eldest son fell ill. There’s nothing else,” said Bai Hao.
The news about the Gu family would not spread easily. He only found out a little about Gu Zi t s illness because he had hired a doctor.
This news was useless to Chen Yue. She snorted and said, “Can’t you get someone to ask around? Has Xiao Jing not appeared outside recently?”
Bai Hao shook his head and said, “It seems that he has been accompanying his wife and daughter in the Gu family recently.”
Hearing this answer, Chen Yue’s expression darkened. She was the last person who wanted to see Xiao Jing and Gu Teng get along well. Even now, she was still thinking about Xiao Jing.
That was her lifelong obsession. As long as she didn’t die, she had to get Xiao Jing.
Bai Hao didn’t know why she was so angry, but he quickly pulled out the box he had brought back “l bought this necklace from an auction. I think it suits you very well.”
Chen Yue didn’t care at all about the dazzling pearl necklace. She pushed Bai Hao away and walked to the bed, her mind filled with memories of her childhood with Xiao Jing.
At this moment, a person wrapped in a black robe walked in and said, “Miss
Chen, I’m here to ask for today’s soul.”
Chen Yue gestured for Bai Hao to come over, and he immediately produced a document and handed it over. “Recently, I’ve had someone stimulate her in the company. Then, I got someone to tell her that there’s a soul swap. If you go look for her now, you’ll definitely succeed..”
