Rebirth: He refused to Divorce Again

Chapter 110: Chapter 110: This Gu Family is finally going to change.

Luo Zhenyu nodded at Zhang Yi and Gu Cheng, with Luo Fan supporting him as he slowly walked out of the emergency room corridor.

After things here were nearly settled, Gu Cheng calmly made a phone call.

The calm voice of Ning Wanru came from the other end, showing no emotion, “He’s in a deep coma and will be a vegetable when he wakes up. You don’t need to do anything else. Make sure everything you’ve cautioned is in order, and keep a close watch. If he stays quiet, fine; if not, spare none, but remember not to leave any trouble behind.”

Gu Cheng repeatedly nodded, “I understand, but what about the other side…”

“Stick to the original plan.”

Ning Wanru finished speaking, then cautioned, “You should also take care of yourself. The family will rely on you in the future…”

“Yes, I know, Mum, rest assured.”

After a few more words, they both hung up the phone.

Although Gu Cheng still appeared composed, the fleeting joy in his brows betrayed him.

Actually, it was all the fault of the old man himself. Had he not gone to seek the elder son, had he not investigated the Gu Family in Stone Town, wouldn’t everything have been perfect?

The two of them would have still been in a close father-son relationship, and the Gu Family would still be his.

They wouldn’t have had to plot so strenuously.

The Old Patriarch becoming a vegetable was the best outcome.

He could rightfully take over everything of the Gu Family.

The Gu Family was finally about to change.

When Uncle Gu finally returned to the hospital, what he saw was the Old Patriarch who had already become a vegetable.

At this age, becoming a vegetable, the chances of waking up were almost zero.

So for Uncle Gu, nothing else mattered anymore.

He stayed by the Old Patriarch’s side relentlessly, and after learning the whole story, he summoned Gu Kun and sternly questioned him.

Unfortunately, he could not find out anything.

Because Gu Kun said these were the words the first lady had specifically spoken to Gu Qingfeng before her demise.

How could he possibly tell him?

And about this, Uncle Gu was extremely helpless.

He also felt a bizarre sensation that the DNA test results must be authentic because it gave him an illusion that it had to be true. It couldn’t be anything else!

Indeed, a week later, the results were out.

Gu Kun was indeed the elder son of the Gu Family.

He was also the Old Patriarch’s biological son!

At this moment, Uncle Gu’s heart no longer felt any ripples.

He couldn’t do anything for the time being. After putting a nucleus carving that Luo Zhenyu personally brought for the Old Patriarch, he began guarding him single-mindedly.

Many things were becoming increasingly bizarre, as if everything was veiled in a layer of fog.

Old Patriarch, you must wake up.

Seated beside the hospital bed, Uncle Gu silently prayed in his heart.

By now, it was already early May.

The willows in Stone Town were sprouting tender green buds.

The grass by the roadside, from afar, shimmered with a hazy green.

Spring in the North, arrived late…

In these weeks, Gu Qiaoqiao had also carved quite a few pieces.

Of the walnuts and olive pits brought back from the Imperial Capital, more than a dozen remained.

And she already had eighteen pieces carved.

Selling them in the Imperial Capital would bring in over twenty thousand Yuan.

But Gu Qiaoqiao didn’t plan to sell them all.

She intended to sell just ten, keeping the rest.

Having too many would decrease their value.

Scarcity increases value.

Even the finest craftsmanship, when it comes to packing it in a basket, loses its luster.

Moreover, Gu Qiaoqiao had decided that for the next few years, she would set aside walnuts and olive pits temporarily.

It was time to switch to other materials.

In this vast world, there are simply too many things that can be carved.

As for the current Gu Qiaoqiao, she really wanted to carve things made of jade.

However, the jade available for sale in the Imperial Capital was almost always expensive finished products.

As for the raw stones, for Gu Qiaoqiao at this time, she not only didn’t know their origin but didn’t even know where such things were sold.

It was said that there were jade mines in Diannan.

Should she take a trip there?

Unfortunately, her family wouldn’t allow her to go.

Unless she sneaked off.

So, carving jade was still unrealistic.

But Gu Qiaoqiao had found several tree roots, which she had processed over the past few days and was now drying in the shade. She estimated that in two days, they could also be carved.

After organizing everything, Gu Qiaoqiao stretched and was preparing to get up when she saw Gu Tianfeng pacing outside the door.

Gu Qiaoqiao turned her head in surprise and asked, “Dad, are you looking for me for something?”

Gu Tianfeng, seeing his daughter notice him, walked in and sat on the chair next to her. Looking at his daughter’s face, flushed by the sunlight, he suddenly felt that the child seemed never to have married, still his and Lian Yuhong’s most beloved first child.

The look in Gu Tianfeng’s eyes grew gentler as he looked at Gu Qiaoqiao and said with concern, “Qiaoqiao, carving isn’t a matter of one or two days, don’t exhaust yourself…”

“I know, dad. Do you need something?” Gu Qiaoqiao curiously looked at the notebook in Gu Tianfeng’s other hand and asked, “Dad, what are you holding?”

Gu Tianfeng hesitated only briefly before taking out the notebook, feeling somewhat uneasy for the first time, but still plucked up the courage to say, “I’ve written some stuff. Qiaoqiao, take a look and see what you think of what dad has written?”

Recently, Gu Tianfeng had been mulling over a lot. He had no interest in going into business, nor did he consider himself shrewd enough for it.

He was not good at ingratiating himself with leaders, which also required skills and time for promotion.

Farming was out of the question, too.

He was far behind his younger brother-in-law.

He hadn’t inherited his father’s carving skills either.

At that time, Gu Tianfeng felt somewhat desperate.

Was it true, as stated in the books, that a scholar was good for nothing?

Then, he remembered something.

He loved reading books.

Plus, he had read many books and had a broad range of knowledge.

He thought, could he try writing a book?

This was the only skill he had.

So, he decided then and there and began to write quietly.

He had written more than 80,000 words.

And still, he felt somewhat unsatisfied.

Moreover, the story had reached an important turning point. At that moment, Gu Tianfeng thought about sharing it with someone.

He also wanted to know whether the story was as good as he thought.

Could it be submitted to a magazine…

But now he needed a reader.

So he thought of his daughter, Gu Qiaoqiao, which seemed like the most suitable choice.

If this child could read it through, his confidence would be greatly bolstered.

Gu Qiaoqiao was startled to hear that her father was writing a book?

Her eyebrows raised, eager to open it, but Gu Tianfeng held the notebook down and hurriedly said, “Before you read, let me give you a brief introduction.”

“Dad, go on,” urged Gu Qiaoqiao.

“The protagonist of the story is Bai Qi from the Qin Dynasty, a legendary general whose life was full of ups and downs. He fought more than seventy battles in his life without a single defeat, earning the epithets ‘God of War’ and ‘God of Killing’. I started writing from his youth…”
