Chapter 442: Chapter 452: Planning to Return to Qingshui Town

Because there are still people in this world who worry about her, it’s not that after her grandfather died, she was left alone.

Perhaps it was because revealing the secret had eased the knot in her heart, or maybe Jin Zijin’s warm embrace had also warmed her heart, the discomfort inside her was slowly dissipating.

She tentatively asked, "You won’t... "

Jin Zijin interrupted her hurriedly, "Don’t say it, of course, I won’t."

Even if he knew that she was actually a lonely ghost, he wouldn’t harm her.

Speaking out like this, she was actually not rational.

But the result pleasantly surprised her.

She believed him and nodded lightly.

Noticing that her body was ice-cold, he released his hands from her and said in a deep voice, "Even if you’re angry, you can’t harm yourself. You carry the mission of two people, the hopes of two people."

Gu Youyou was momentarily stunned.

The mission of two people, that of both Gu Youyous. The hopes of two people, both grandfathers.’

Yes, she sighed with a bitter smile.

"I will be fine, thank you. Tonight... I almost lost control of myself."

He chuckled lightly and said, "Grandfather... taught you well." If she were an ordinary woman, she wouldn’t have such strong self-control. Women mostly can’t keep their composure, just like she said earlier, if she were willful, she would be on the road now, not sitting and waiting for his return.

Gu Youyou was stunned because the grandfather Jin Zijin spoke of was not Gu Feng, but another grandfather.

He tucked her into the blankets, removed his clothes, and held her tightly, letting his body heat gradually warm her chilly body.

"So, don’t let yourself get cold again in the future, you can have a brazier."

She said displeased, "I was so angry I forgot about the cold."

He said authoritatively, "You can’t forget, do you want to suffer from cold poison?"

"..."

"Oh..." she sighed, "But I still need to go back to Qingshui Town. Grandfather’s grave is overgrown with weeds. He was so good to me, yet I haven’t even burned paper money for him. And... one has been punished, while the other is still flaunting power."

"You..." Jin Zijin didn’t stubbornly refuse and said, "Fine, I’ll arrange it as soon as I can."

...

Jin Zijin was a man of action. Half a month after his disappearance, he returned with a smile on his face.

"In a few days, everything will be arranged, and then we can go."

Gu Youyou smiled with joy, "I heard you went to Qi Mountain, was it your master who settled it?"

Settled?

Jin Zijin was taken aback, then chuckled, "Yes, the only one who might pose a threat to him in this world is my master. It’s just that he’s advanced in years, and there are many things we don’t want to disturb him with."

"Mm, thank you, Zijin."

Gu Youyou knew that Jin Zijin had never sought his master’s help before, but this time he had gone for her sake, which must have been difficult for him.

He patted her back and said, "No need to thank me when you’re with me, go make your arrangements."

Arrange? Gu Youyou was also a woman of action. Knowing that she couldn’t stay in Lingnan for long, she had already trained someone to take over for her.

Banxia was smart and eager to learn, making her a good choice, but her feudal thinking was deep-rooted. Although she had improved a lot under Gu Youyou’s deliberate guidance, there were still many issues that weren’t suitable for her to handle.

So now, there were two people managing Jisheng Hall—one was Banxia and the other was Fang Xi, the only literate apprentice bought as a child.

And the well-behaved Miss Guan Yuexin was put in charge of managing the factory.

Because her feudal thinking was even more deeply ingrained than Banxia’s, she would rather be a maid than show her face in public.

Absolutely speechless.
