Bringing love across time and space

Chapter 338 Gu Yuzhe Meets His Parents

In the vast night, the Ghost Gate disciples marched with heavy steps.

Slowly returned to the ghost gate that made them both awed and attached.

Their faces were filled with fatigue and loss, and their eyes were flashing with unwillingness and helplessness.

They went out to look for treasure with endless longing and desire for the treasure.

I hope this will add glory and wealth to Guimen.

However, reality is like a cold blade.

Their dreams were ruthlessly shattered, leaving them wandering in the abyss of despair.

Those treasures are like lighthouses in the fog, guiding countless greedy eyes.

The Ghost Gate disciples, as a force that cannot be ignored in the martial arts world, are naturally attracted by these treasures.

They believed that as long as they found this treasure, Guimen’s status in the martial arts world would be elevated to a higher level.

So they embarked on this hopeful treasure hunt.

However, fate always seems to play jokes on them.

When they escorted the Prince of Dongyue back that day,

This was seen by a minister of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, who immediately pushed them to the forefront of public opinion.

It was that quiet night, the moon was dark and the wind was strong, with only sparse stars dotting the night sky.

They were dressed in black robes, which made them stand out in the night.

A minister happened to pass by at this moment, and in his blurred vision,

Only the figures of a group of people in black were captured.

Thus, an absurd guess quietly took root in his mind - these men in black,

They must be people from the Ghost Gate. They must have come to steal the ministers’ storehouses.

This speculation, like a seed, quickly took root and sprouted in the court and among the people of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

Since that night, the ministers of the Eastern Jin Dynasty never lost any property again.

This seemingly coincidental phenomenon made more people firmly believe that Guimen was the mastermind behind the theft.

For a time, the name of Guimen became a taboo among people.

Both the ministers and the people were filled with anger and hatred towards them.

The ministers suffered heavy losses because their treasuries were robbed.

Naturally, they poured out their anger on Guimen. They wrote to the court one after another, demanding severe punishment for the people in Guimen.

The people also lived in dire straits because of the oppression of the ministers.

Their lives were already difficult, and now they were made worse by the greed of their ministers.

Therefore, they transferred this resentment to Guimen.

The Ghost Gate disciples thus became innocent scapegoats.

Wherever they went, they were cursed and beaten by people.

Their hearts are filled with grievances and anger, but they have no way to express them.

They knew that all this stemmed from that ridiculous misunderstanding.

But in this world full of prejudice and hatred, the truth often seems so pale and powerless.

When they first arrived there, they didn't see the treasure, but they didn't give up hope of finding it.

Although the external pressure makes them breathless, they still firmly believe that

That treasure must still be somewhere in the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

So they searched nearby, but still couldn't find it.

With full of passion and unwillingness, they once again went deep into the deep cave.

Inside the cave, the dim light flickered, illuminating their tired yet determined faces.

They searched every corner carefully, fearing to miss any clues.

However, time passed and they gained nothing.

The treasures in the cave seemed to be hidden by some mysterious power, making them unable to reach them.

They were unwilling to give up, so they searched nearby for several days and nights.

They climbed over mountains and crossed rivers, cutting through thorns and bushes, just to find the treasure that the Prince of Dongyue and his men had spoken of.

However, reality once again dealt them a heavy blow.

They searched everywhere but still found no clues.

In the end, they had no choice but to give up and return to the ghost gate with hearts full of loss and fatigue.

When the Ghost Gate leader heard this, he was so angry that his face turned blue.

He could not accept such a result, and he could not tolerate the slander and attacks on Guimen from the outside world.

He slammed the table angrily, as if he wanted to pour out all his dissatisfaction.

He ordered severe punishment for Prince Dongyue and others, hoping to get clues about the treasure from them.

However, Prince Dongyue and the others were as silent as death.

No matter how they tortured him, they couldn't get any useful information.

The leader of Guimen was completely disappointed.

He realized that he could no longer get any valuable clues from these people.

So he made a surprising decision - he personally killed the Prince of Dongyue and others.

He wanted to vent his anger and dissatisfaction in this way.

He wants everyone to know that Guimen is not a soft persimmon that can be bullied.

However, this move did not change the outside world's view of Guimen.

On the contrary, it made Guimen’s reputation in the martial arts world even more notorious.

People accused Guimen of being cruel and ruthless, not even sparing innocent people.

The next morning, when the first rays of morning light still shyly peeked through the window,

The sky was still immersed in a gentle blue-gray dream when Gu Yuzhe woke up quietly.

His mood was even more anxious than the sky at the first light of dawn.

It was because today was the important day he and Luo Siqi had agreed on for him to visit Luo Jingchuan and his wife.

This was not a simple meeting, but a crucial moment for him, as the future son-in-law, to express his respect and sincerity to the Luo family's parents.

Inside the warehouse, the lights are dim and warm, and each piece of collection shines with its own unique brilliance under the soft light.

As if whispering the stories and values ​​behind them.

However, for Gu Yuzhe, these treasures that are usually amazing are

But at this moment, it seemed to be lacking that perfect feeling that made his heart beat.

He looked at the dazzling array of collections with discerning and focused eyes.

My fingers gently brushed over those priceless antiques and jewels.

But there was always a voice in his heart telling him: It’s not enough, it’s not good enough.

He knows that choosing gifts is not an easy task, especially for elders who are about to become his parents.

There is no room for any carelessness.

What Gu Yuzhe wants is not only the preciousness of material things, but also the uniqueness and appropriateness of the heart.

He wanted to take this opportunity to show Luo Jingchuan and his wife his deep love for Luo Siqi.

And cherish and respect this marriage relationship.

But unfortunately, even with countless treasures in the storehouse, it is difficult to find that perfect gift.

Finally, his eyes fixed on a set of white jade tea sets that were as smooth as jade.

The tea set has smooth lines and warm colors, just like the purest and flawless first snow.

It exudes an air of elegance that is untainted by dust.

Gu Yuzhe thought that Luo Jingchuan loved tea ceremony, so this gift would definitely please him.

It not only reflects good taste, but also is a rare elegance.

Then, he selected a pair of white jade bracelets for Lin Xiuhui.

The bracelet is crystal clear and as smooth as fat. Wearing it on the wrist will definitely add a touch of gentleness and nobility, which complements Lin Xiuhui's temperament.

As for the old lady of the Luo family, Gu Yuzhe's thoughts were a little complicated.

He was not being disrespectful, but he was just being mean to the elder who always had ill intentions towards Luo Siqi's family.

He felt somewhat helpless and wary.

So, he randomly picked a jade hairpin of relatively poor quality from the storehouse.

Although it is not the best, its value is not insignificant in modern collections.

Even this "worst" hairpin is worth a fortune in modern society.

However, Gu Yuzhe knew that it was difficult to truly win Luo Jingchuan's recognition and favor with material gifts alone.

What he needs is time and action.

To prove his love for Luo Siqi and his responsibility as a member of the Luo family.

When everything was ready, the clock had just pointed to seven o'clock. The morning light was still dim and the hustle and bustle of the city had not yet fully awakened.

Gu Yuzhe hurriedly finished his breakfast. The taste of the food seemed to become a tasteless background in his mouth.

His heart had already flown to the upcoming meeting.

Back in the room, he began to take care of his appearance carefully.

From the choice of tie to the hairstyle, every detail is taken into consideration.

He knows that first impressions are always crucial.

Especially in such a formal occasion, he must show his best side.

At exactly nine o'clock, when the sunlight finally completely dispelled the darkness of the night, Gu Yuzhe, accompanied by the driver, slowly drove out of the house.

Even though he already had his driver's license in hand, he didn't want any mistakes or delays in today's matter.

In the car, he closed his eyes and rested, but in his mind he was silently rehearsing the upcoming conversation and behavior.

Every smile and every word is meant to be just right, neither too attentive nor lacking in politeness and respect.

As the car slowly stopped in front of the Luo family's gate, Gu Yuzhe took a deep breath and adjusted his state.

Carrying carefully prepared gifts, he stepped into the Luo family's threshold.

The Luo family’s mansion is solemn, and every detail reveals the family’s heritage and style.

He couldn't help but feel a bit of awe in his heart.

At the same time, it also strengthened my determination to work harder and become a member of this family.

Luo Jingchuan and his wife were already waiting in the living room, with gentle smiles on their faces.

Her eyes revealed her curiosity and expectation towards Gu Yuzhe.

Gu Yuzhe presented the gifts one by one and expressed his respect and gratitude to the Luo family with sincere words.

Luo Jingchuan took the tea set, with a hint of appreciation in his eyes.

Lin Xiuhui gently stroked the bracelet with a gentle smile on her lips.

As for the old lady, although she did not show much enthusiasm for the jade hairpin,

But she still saw Gu Yuzhe's sincerity and politeness.

During the conversation, Gu Yuzhe showed his knowledge,

His cultivation and plans for the future, his sincere yet confident words, left a deeper impression on the Luo couple.

Especially when talking about his future with Luo Siqi, his eyes were full of tenderness.

The persistence and commitment to love moved everyone present.

At lunch time, the atmosphere at the table was harmonious, with laughter and conversation interweaving into a warm picture.

Gu Yuzhe knew very well that everything today was just the beginning of his relationship with the Luo family.

The road ahead is still long, but he is willing to use a sincere heart to win the recognition and acceptance of everyone in the Luo family.

As the sun set, Gu Yuzhe said goodbye to the Luo family. Before leaving, he and Luo Siqi hugged each other tightly behind a tree.

Gu Yuzhe bravely kissed Luo Siqi secretly when she was not paying attention. Seeing that Luo Siqi did not dodge,

Then he deepened the kiss!

When Luo Siqi was kissed till she was dizzy, Gu Yuzhe reluctantly let her go.

I felt a little reluctant to be separated from Luo Siqi for a day.
