Searching for Treasures in the Clouds

Yu Ru rested her head in his arms, tilted her head slightly to look at him, and after thinking for a while, she gestured, "Then you can scold them to me for three days and three nights. If you have something unhappy, you will feel better if you speak it out. I won't tell anyone else."

She has personal experience with this. She rarely speaks ill of others, but that doesn't mean she has never said it. Her work is very diverse, which results in her not having many friends. She does have a lot of contacts and acquaintances, but so far, she has met more than a hundred weirdos, and she could scold each one of them for a month.

Of course, it's not good to always spread negative energy, so she picked out a few people who she thought were worse than mud and cursed them at Mingshi.

After I finished scolding, I felt much better.

"Aru, with your words, I can be happy no matter how unhappy I am." Yun Jixing rubbed his forehead against Yu Ru's. "The deeds of those two annoying guys are a bit complicated. It may not be easy to express them in words. I will sort out the information and tell you later."

Yu Ru nodded, "Let's not talk about them for now. What did your elders think after you told them about our engagement?"

Yun Jixing hesitated when this was mentioned, but he still smiled and said, "They are all very satisfied and want to meet you soon, as well as your parents, to discuss our marriage."

In fact, she didn't completely agree with it. Xiang Huiyun was somewhat opposed to it. It was not because she was dissatisfied with Yu Ru, but because she respected the fortune-telling calculated by the old immortal.

The old immortal said that Yu Ru's fate was rough before she was 25, and she would face several death disasters. If she could survive them, she would be able to enjoy her old age in peace and wealth until she passed away. However, the premise for her to enjoy her old age was that he would not interfere with her, otherwise she might die young if she was not careful. In other words, he was against Yu Ru, but the strange thing was that it was only one-sided. Yu Ru was not against him, but was very beneficial to him. She was the greatest benefactor in his life.

Because of this, even though Yu Ru was a granddaughter-in-law who would bring good luck to her husband, Xiang Huiyun didn't really want the two of them to be together. She didn't want to implicate an innocent person and let Yu Ru die young because of him.

There is a way to resolve this. Fate is determined by nature, and luck is determined by nurture. Fate cannot be changed, but luck can be changed. The sky has the sun, moon, and stars, which cannot be shaken, but people have yin and yang and the five elements, which can be transformed.

According to numerology, the old immortal proposed a solution. If they wanted to become each other's true love, achieve each other in this life, and support each other until old age, he should listen to Yu Ru more, give her the decision-making power in some major decisions and urgent matters, and say whatever he wants to say, no matter what it is, just talk openly. If they can do these two things, there won't be much problem.

[What did the old immortal say? Are our horoscopes compatible?]

"We..." Yun Jixing hesitated.

He was afraid that Yu Ru would no longer want him after knowing the old immortal's divination result. After all, being with someone who was a nemesis for him, while he brought prosperity to the other person, was something that would benefit others at the expense of oneself. No normal person would want to do that, and it would probably be difficult for them to accept it.

He knew that Yu Ru loved him, but probably not as much as she did in her previous life, so he didn't dare to bet. But he had already suffered from not speaking clearly, so could he still hide it? In most cases, hiding something is not necessarily a way to make people feel at ease, the truth is.

Thinking of the old immortal's words, he decided to tell Yu Ru everything he remembered.

After listening to this, Yu Ru didn't react much, but she still had a smile on her face, "That means we are still suitable for each other, that's all."

Yun Jixing breathed a sigh of relief, his beating heart finally settled. He leaned close to Yu Ru and said, "A Ru, I will listen to you."

Yu Ru nodded.

"Aru, when can we arrange a meeting between our parents? Or, I'll take you home and you take me home."

[In a few days, I will tell you that I have met a few clients with more imagination. They are not satisfied with the solutions I have given them and are unwilling to pay the final payment. I will take you back after I get the money.]

"Okay." Yun Jixing touched Yu Ru's arm.

……

Yu Ru brought Yun Jixing to her biological parents' home.

She informed her family in advance that she was going to bring her boyfriend back to discuss marriage. Her family asked for leave from the teachers at the senior citizens' university early on and spent a few days cleaning the house.

They were finally willing to make changes, throwing away all the things that were piled up until they were moldy, and throwing away the things that were so old that they couldn't be any older. Once these things were gone, the house became much brighter. When Yu Ru returned, she almost didn't recognize her own home.

Gu Yulan responded enthusiastically, glanced at Yun Jixing, then looked at Yu Ru and asked, "Yu Ru, this is it?"

Yu Ru nodded.

"Hello, Auntie." Yun Jixing lowered his head and bowed slightly, "My name is Yun Jixing, you can just call me Xiaoyun."

"Oh, oh." Gu Yulan smiled and nodded, "Um...Xiaoyun, sit down. It's time to eat. I've been waiting for Yu Ru and you to come."

At this time, Yu Yousheng came over.

Yun Jixing quickly greeted him as well.

Yu Yousheng nodded, "Okay, Xiaoyun, sit down and eat first. Why are you carrying so many things? Put them down quickly."

"Uncle, this is what we should do."

What he brought was much more than what he had in his hands. In order to show the importance of this meeting, he drove a seven-seater car over. Except for the seats where he and Yu Ru were sitting, the rest of the car was filled with gifts.

……

After dinner, Yu Ru’s family sat together and began to “interrogate” Yun Jixing. Yu Ru’s brother, who had been working away from home, also came back. With him, there were five pairs of eyes looking at Yun Jixing.

Their gazes made Yun Jixing feel unprecedentedly nervous, and the hand on his thigh unconsciously pulled at his pants.

The people who asked were mainly Gu Yulan and Yu Yousheng. Like all parents meeting their son-in-law for the first time, they asked Yun Jixing about his work, family, where he was from...

Yu Ru originally wanted to tell them about these things in advance and just let them know. After all, she was just informing them, not discussing with them. However, Yu Yousheng and Gu Yulan refused to do so and insisted on seeing Yun Jixing say it with their own eyes, for fear that he was lying.

"Aunt, uncle, I'm from Huacheng. My family runs a business, and I also do some small business myself, that is, I opened a store and opened a few factories. The things I do are quite diverse, mainly in the fields of elderly care, pets, and restaurants."

"Oh."

Everyone nodded.

"Xiao Yun, you don't smoke, drink or gamble, right?" Gu Yulan asked again.

Yun Jixing immediately shook his head, "Auntie, I don't have any bad habits. I don't touch these, but sometimes I need to drink a little for work, but I don't drink normally."

"Oh." Gu Yulan nodded. "It's good to not have these. Especially don't gamble. Once you gamble, you're done. No matter how rich you are, it's all gone."

"Yes, auntie, you and uncle can rest assured. I don't do those messy things, and none of my friends do that."

The atmosphere quieted down. After a while, Gu Yulan asked, "Xiaoyun, what are your plans for marriage? How do you plan to hold the wedding? Are you in a hurry to have children?"
