Chapter 137: Chapter 137: Really Foolish! (1)
"You can rest assured, I will definitely abide by the conduct of a wife within the marriage and be a qualified wife."
He lifted his eyelids slightly and grunted acknowledgment.
The couple restored their previous relationship, getting along harmoniously every day, and no one brought up the matter of children again.
On the surface, Gu Lili seemed indifferent, but in reality, the child was her inner conflict. However, she cared about saving face and would not bring up the matter of the child again on her own.
Since her childhood, she had been independent and self-reliant, living with her master for many years, and she could think through many issues thoroughly. She was not the type to cling to finding a specific outcome.
Half a month later, it was July.
Su Changzhi informed her to come and collect the pills, which were ready.
Early in the morning, she drove back to Xiliang Mountain.
Su Changzhi was sitting in the yard, and Gu Lili saw a small bamboo grove planted in the yard at a glance.
"Ah, when did you plant the bamboo?"
"A few days ago, I bought them. I thought you would like them."
Gu Lili nodded, "Indeed, planting a small bamboo grove in the yard looks really nice."
Su Changzhi took out a pill and placed it on the table, "Here."
She turned around and sat opposite him, picking it up from the table, "Have you taken it?"
"I have."
Gu Lili put that pill aside, "Then you should keep the other one safe, and give it to your beloved when you find her."
"I only made two."
"Huh?" Gu Lili looked up in surprise, "Didn’t you say you were also going to make one for your future wife?"
"I’ll make it anew when I find her," Su Changzhi said as he leisurely sipped his tea.
Gu Lili thought it made sense; according to his standards, it would take ages to find someone. It was better to make a new one once he found her than to make one now and possibly lose it.
"That makes sense. When you find her, I’ll prepare the medicinal ingredients for you."
He nodded, "Alright."
"By the way, Gu Xichen hasn’t come back here during this period, has he?"
"He hasn’t." His clear, distinct eyes fell on her face, "Lili, the pills are ready, and I will be leaving this place."
"Where are you going?"
"There are things I need to do. Don’t worry, I will come back from time to time." He looked around the courtyard, "I really like this yard and hope I can live here frequently in the future."
"Of course, you can." Gu Lili thought he was going to travel around to find his beloved and the costs wouldn’t be small. She pulled out a wallet from her bag and took out a bank card, "There is one hundred thousand yuan inside. Take it for your journey, it’s not easy finding someone; everything costs money."
Su Changzhi looked at the bank card she handed him but did not take it, "No need, I’ve already accepted your twenty thousand dollars before, I can handle the money issues myself."
"Just take it."
He firmly refused, "No."
"Always too proud," Gu Lili put the bank card away again, "Then be careful in all matters and call me if anything happens."
"Okay, there is one thing I need to tell you. Since the pill was made quickly, its efficacy will last longer than the one you took before; you will inevitably suffer a bit. I felt discomfort for about two hours when I took it."
Gu Lili nodded, feeling that enduring discomfort for two hours to become poison-proof was nothing; she would willingly endure three hours.
They had lunch together because he was leaving Xiliang Mountain the next day. Gu Lili stayed until five in the afternoon before leaving.
