Rebirth of the Star God Agent

After Gu Ling opened the gift package sent by Zhai Anle in front of her father, both father and daughter were still very confused.

Two small jade talismans, a large basket of fruit, and several antique wooden boxes. Inside the boxes were some strange grasses and plant roots.

The father and daughter looked at each other in the small study, until Dai Yi sent a communication request.

Gu's father, who had devoted his life to scientific research, was like a child who had never seen the world. After Dai Yi's patient explanation, he finally understood the weight of the gift package.

Father Gu's eyes were red as he looked at Dai Yi on the screen and nodded repeatedly to express his gratitude.

Dai Yi looked at the usually aloof girl beside the middle-aged man, now smiling with exceptional joy. Then he glanced at the man who would undoubtedly become his future father-in-law, blushing, "Uncle, um, every family has their own unique martial arts techniques. I've already learned the basics of breathing exercises from the Qi family. I can come to your house anytime you need me."

Dai Yi looked worthless, but Father Gu didn't notice. His attention was completely on the extremely precious gift package in front of him.

Gu Ling saw it clearly and covered her mouth with her hands to laugh, "Dad, let's talk about the alliance with the Qi family first?"

Father Gu regained his composure after a long while and nodded. "Our Gu family has long been in decline. The Qi family can offer such a good condition, why should we refuse? However, I need to talk to the head of the Qi family in person."

Dai Yi quickly interrupted, "Uncle, the Qi family's head and his family have some things to deal with recently. They will probably be busy for a few days. When they are done, I will arrange for you to meet?"

Father Gu frowned. He was actually quite anxious. Everyone in the Gu family was engaged in research, and if you counted them closely, they were all scholars and nerds. Finding a good ally was like finding a guide. It would save the Gu family a lot of trouble in the future and could also help to improve their current predicament.

Father Gu thought for a moment and chuckled, "Of course, we'll have to wait until the Qi family's Patriarch has time. Then, thank you, Mr. Dai. Is Mr. Dai also an ally of the Qi family?"

Dai Yi nodded. "I just joined not long ago. The young master of the Qi family had a talk with my father, and my father invested the entire Dai family in it. Uncle, you won't be disappointed. The Qi family is worthy of trust. This is what my father said. He is a soldier and has always been upright. I hope my words can dispel some of your doubts."

Father Gu nodded and carefully began to put away the precious treasures on the table.

Gu Ling helped to collect them. "Dad, Dai Yi said that there are a lot of things going on at the Qi family today. We agreed to go and see if there's anything we can do to help. We may not be back in the evening, so don't worry."

Father Gu glanced at his daughter, then looked at the boy on the screen who was blushing and smiling a little foolishly.

Father Gu shook his head gently. "You, there are some things I won't take care of. If you want to go, go together. I'll study these carefully at home."

Father Gu turned to Dai Yi and said, "Be careful when you go out. Thank you, classmate Dai, for taking good care of Lingling."

Dai Yi smiled sweetly, "Don't worry, uncle. I will take good care of Gu Ling. Please don't worry, uncle."

Dai Yi went to Gu's house to pick up Gu Ling and said goodbye to Gu's father and mother. Dai Yi took Gu Ling back to Gu's house. He planned to take Gu Ling to participate in the multi-person connection in the evening.

The next day, when public opinion erupted, Gu's father received the news very late. As he watched the overwhelming news about the Qi family, Gu's father felt sick and his vision went dark.

They had just decided to join the Qi family's alliance the day before, and the next day, something terrible had happened to the Qi family. Could it be that the Gu family was unlucky? Possessed by the God of Bad Luck?

Father Gu hurriedly sent a message to his daughter.

When Gu Ling answered the call, she was standing at the door of Zhou Huaishan's office, dragging a few buckets of tea.

Father Gu asked, "Son, do you know about the Qi family's affairs?"

Gu Ling nodded. "I know. They had an online meeting last night, and classmate Dai and I attended together. Because our family hasn't officially joined yet, we can't join the multi-person communication channel yet."

Father Gu frowned and said worriedly, "Qi family, can the Qi family's problem this time be solved?"

Gu Ling smiled, "Dad, don't worry. I watched almost the entire meeting. They were all prepared in advance. You could say that this news was all planned by them. I can't tell you the details here."

Gu Ling pointed to the buckets of tea on the small trailer beside her. "I'm currently at the office door of Ms. Zhou, the head of the Zhou family, delivering something to her. When I'm less busy here, I'll go home and tell you in detail."

Before Gu's father could respond, Zhou Huaishan's office door opened.

Zhou Huaishan tilted her head and looked at Gu Ling with curiosity. "Dai Pingchuan's daughter-in-law? I saw you and Dai Pingchuan's son at the meeting last night. It was you, wasn't it?"

Gu Ling nodded, her face slightly red. She awkwardly glanced at her old father in the video screen, then at the incredibly beautiful woman before her. "Hello, Ms. Zhou. I'm sending you some tea at the address Mr. Qi gave me."

Zhou Huaishan smiled and pulled the little girl and the small trailer into the office.

Zhou Huaishan walked around the thermos and asked, "Little girl, just call me Auntie Shan. What's your name? Who sent this from the Qi family?"

Gu Ling's face flushed slightly. "Aunt Shan, my name is Gu Ling. This is the young master of the Qi family. Qi Anle asked me to bring it to you. He said it's a tea for you to refresh yourself. It works very well. Aunt Shan, would you like to try it first?"

Zhou Huaishan rubbed Gu Ling's little head. "Oh, the Gu family? The Gu family of the scientific research master?"

Gu Ling's face turned even redder, and she nodded. "Aunt Shan, you're joking. The Gu family can't be called a big family now. It's just that everyone's work is still in scientific research."

Zhou Huaishan smiled and poured herself a pot of tea, placing it on the coffee table. She was just about to pour two more cups of tea for Gu Ling.

"Good boy, you've worked hard. Come have a drink to quench your thirst. Your Gu family isn't considered a scientific research powerhouse, but does that shabby Bai family count? That family is just unlucky."

Gu Ling hurriedly stopped Zhou Huaishan, "Aunt Shan, I'll leave these three buckets for you to share with the staff who worked late last night. I still have to go to Kate's house, so I won't disturb you from working."

Zhou Huaishan nodded regretfully. She was still thinking about gossiping a little. But when she turned around, she saw Father Gu, who was still on the communication line, with a bewildered look on his face.

"Oh, Lingling, is this your father?" Zhou Huaishan asked Gu Ling curiously.

Gu Ling nodded obediently, "Yes, this is my father, Gu Chengheng."

Zhou Huaishan looked at the dazed man in the light screen with surprise, "Mr. Gu, I am Zhou Huaishan of the Zhou family. I didn't expect to see you in this situation."

Gu Chengheng panicked. How could he not know about the Zhou family? The Federation, no, the richest family in the galaxy. Zhou Huaishan, such a famous interstellar thing, how could he not know about it? He just didn't expect to meet Zhou Huaishan like this.

Gu Chengheng said somewhat stiffly, "Hello, Ms. Zhou. I am Gu Ling's father, Gu Chengheng."

Zhou Huaishan covered her lips and chuckled, "Lingling, Auntie Shan, can you spare a moment of your time to talk to your father?"

Gu Ling nodded, "You said, there's no time to delay."

Zhou Huaishan smiled and pulled Gu Ling to sit on the sofa in the office.

Zhou Huaishan said, "Mr. Gu, the Qi family must have already given you a message regarding the covenant. Mr. Gu, could you tell me what you think about this matter?"

Gu Chengheng hesitated, pursed his lips, and said cautiously: "When I got the news yesterday, I had already decided to join the covenant. Today..."

Zhou Huaishan waved his hand and said, "I understand Mr. Gu's concerns. But Mr. Gu should have seen the gift package that Anle gave you, and you should have also seen the sincerity of the Qi family."

Gu Chengheng nodded and said calmly, "My only concern is whether the Qi family will be affected by today's news. I'm afraid that the support the Gu family has just found will be in trouble."

Zhou Huaishan was stunned for a moment, then smiled even more brilliantly. "Mr. Gu, you are a respectable scientific researcher, and this kind of intrigue is not something the Gu family is good at. I am here to reassure Mr. Gu that you can sign the Qi family's covenant with confidence."

Gu Chengheng stared at Zhou Huaishan for a long time, then suddenly laughed.

There are many things in this world that he cannot understand.

For example, the Gu family never antagonized anyone and was immersed in academic pursuits, making them a truly prestigious family. However, such a family obsessed with research was destroyed overnight.

The Gu family also had good connections, and someone secretly reminded him that a disaster was coming and asked the Gu family to be prepared.

Unfortunately, no one in the Gu family was able to resolve the nightmarish crisis.

The Gu family doesn’t understand a lot, and each of them is conscientiously doing their own research and doing the work they like.

The Gu family fell into ruin overnight. Some members of the Gu family were angry about being framed, some were worried, and some endured it and worked harder. They all hoped that the Gu family would go smoothly, they all hoped that no one would bother them, and they did not want to be attacked maliciously like this.

There was not a single person in the family who could resist the malicious slander.

The olive branch that Gu Ling brought back was like a soft bed laid out for those who had been walking alone in the wilderness for a long time, calling them to lie down quickly.

Gu Chengheng was happy. For a long time, the Gu family had been plagued by anxiety and anger. The Qi family had brought them hope. But before the flame of hope could even begin to ignite, it was extinguished by the news.

Gu Chengheng was uneasy, unwilling, and anxious. The sudden appearance of Zhou Huaishan gave him a reassurance.

Gu Chengheng smiled, feeling relieved and at ease.

Gu Chengheng said, "Thank you, Ms. Zhou. I understand. As long as the allies don't mind, the Gu family will definitely be a member of the alliance."

Zhou Huaishan nodded. "I'm honored to meet you today, Mr. Gu. I look forward to seeing you next time. Well, I won't interrupt you and your daughter's conversation."

Zhou Huaishan said hello to Gu Ling and returned to her desk. She called her assistant to help her pack tea and water for the employees who worked late last night. Those who were not in the company were given bonuses.

Gu Ling greeted her father, "Dad, you should be relieved. I'll get back to my work. You can continue to study your gift bag."

Gu Ling cut off contact with her father, said hello to Zhou Huaishan, and hurried to Kate's house to deliver tea.

Gu Chengheng looked at the place where the light curtain disappeared in front of him and smiled foolishly.

The Qi family, the Zhou family, the Dai family, and the Kate family, these allies he currently knows, each one is stronger than the Gu family before it fell into decline.

If the Gu family doesn't understand or can't do something, their allies will naturally help them. As for the Gu family, all they need to do is show their sincerity and work harder for their allies.

The Gu family's real hope is to have an environment where they can work with peace of mind.

Gu Chengheng smiled happily, humming a little tune, and took out the big gift bag that he treasured. He felt relieved and continued to study this magical gift bag.
