Looking at Liu Ruyan in front of him, Gu Qingxiu also had a sense of déjà vu, as if he had seen her somewhere before, but he couldn't remember where. He just felt a strange sense of closeness to her.

That's really strange!

"The reason we rushed here is that we have a favor to ask of you."

After exchanging pleasantries with Gu Qingyan for a while and praising each of the five children of the Song family, Gu Qingxiu finally revealed the true purpose of their visit.

"Second Master Gu, you might as well speak frankly," Liu Ruyan said.

"After returning home today, the doctor came to treat my mother. Originally, her condition was expected to worsen after she fell into a coma, but unexpectedly, it did not worsen but instead improved."

The doctor said that if we could get more pills, Mother's condition would likely improve, so we've come here to ask for the medicine.

Gu Qingyan quickly added, "We know this medicine must be very precious. We would like to buy some and hope that Madam Song will help us out, considering our past relationship with General Song."

Liu Ruyan hadn't expected the pills to be so effective. She unconsciously looked at her daughter, wondering if Zhen'er had any more pills, and even less whether they were difficult to make.

"We have all heard about what Madam Qin and Qin Shuangshuang have done during this period of time, and they have been utterly wrong."

Although we severed ties with them years ago, we are also partly to blame and have no face to face you.

With that, the two brothers bowed deeply, their faces full of apology.

"We felt guilty towards General Song because of Yunwei's matter years ago, but we never expected to feel even more guilty towards Miss Song now."

We were originally ashamed to come, but my mother's illness was so serious that we had no choice but to swallow our pride and come begging.

The Gu brothers were completely unpretentious and humble, which naturally made people feel a sense of goodwill towards them.

After all, the Gu family is of a higher social standing than the Song family, so it's not impossible that the other party would come and give orders in a condescending manner. However, this attitude reveals the other party's character.

Song Ruozhen and Song Yi'an exchanged a glance, and their eyes revealed their satisfaction.

Song Yi'an knew beforehand that the Gu family had a good reputation. If they weren't people who could distinguish right from wrong, they wouldn't have broken off relations with Gu Yunwei in the first place.

These two uncles... seem quite nice.

"Regarding this pill..." Liu Ruyan looked at Song Ruozhen, as this matter still needed her to make the decision.

Song Ruozhen smiled slightly, "The pills are naturally no problem. We would all like to see Madam Gu get better. Please wait a moment, uncles, and I will go and get them."

Both Gu Qingyan and Song Ruozhen were very clever. From their conversation, they realized that the pills were probably made by Miss Song.

Song Ruozhen quickly brought over the pills.

“Uncle, just take one pill a day. We’ll see how the old lady is in seven days. If needed, I can go and check on her then.”

Song Ruozhen naturally hoped that her maternal grandmother would be safe and sound. Today, she not only met her maternal grandmother, but also her two uncles. Judging from this, she should not worry that her mother would be wronged after recognizing her relatives.

Hearing the deeper meaning in Song Ruozhen's words, Gu Qingyan couldn't help but ask, "Could it be that Miss Song is also skilled in medicine?"

“Zhen’er does know some medical skills, but because she is a young lady, this news has not been spread.” Liu Ruyan explained.

The two Gu brothers exchanged a glance, and Gu Qingxiu asked again, "The two young masters of the Song family fell ill before, and all the doctors were helpless, but they suddenly recovered some time ago. Could it be that..."

"It's all thanks to Zhen'er."

Liu Ruyan spoke of this with a look of pride on her face.

If it weren't for the constant stream of family troubles lately, and her fear that "the tallest tree in the forest is the first to be felled by the wind," she would have loved to let the whole world know how capable her daughter was!

The Gu family members were deeply impressed. They hadn't realized the Song family's daughter was so capable, yet so remarkably low-key in public. The King of Chu's judgment was truly exceptional.

Shuangshuang had been targeting them in every way, ruining their wedding. Yet, the other party still helped their mother get treatment despite their past grievances. The more they thought about it, the more guilty they felt.

"Then we'll have to trouble you, Miss Song. We'll remember this kindness. In the future, if you ever need our help, just let us know. As long as it's within our power, we'll do our best to help!"

Gu Qingyan looked serious. In fact, they had secretly helped Song Lin after his accident, but they hadn't revealed it because of their relationship.

Now, taking advantage of this opportunity, the two families have grown closer, and they can do more to fulfill their friendship with Song Lin.

"You're too kind, both of you. Actually, when my husband was alive, he mentioned his friendship with you, and we all know that."

Liu Ruyan smiled gently. The grievances have their source, the debts their debtor; their relationship with the Qin family was indeed bad, but that had nothing to do with the Gu family.

Just as the Gu brothers were about to leave, Gu Qingyan hesitated for a moment before speaking: "Actually, after Song Lin's accident, I sent people to inquire about his whereabouts."

At first, the battle was so chaotic that even after sending people to search, we couldn't find a single clue about him. But recently we've found some leads, and it's very likely that Song Lin is still alive.

"Is this true?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Ruyan became excited, her eyes filled with eagerness.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry. I've already sent people to investigate carefully. All I've learned is that someone was seriously injured but survived, and their description is extremely similar to Song Lin's."

After all this time, although we have obtained some information, we only know that the person was rescued, but we have not yet found out where they are.

I originally planned to bring the person back after the investigation was complete, but I happened to come to the Song residence today and saw that my sister-in-law was still heartbroken over this, so I said a few words: we'll have to wait for more information to know the details."

Gu Qingyan finally couldn't help but reveal the news, which he had only received a few days ago. However, since the person hadn't been found, he shouldn't have said it.

During their conversation, he noticed Liu Ruyan's barely concealed sadness when she mentioned Song Linshi. Seeing Liu Ruyan's expression, he felt a pang of heartache and an indescribable pain, which is why he spoke up.

Liu Ruyan was overjoyed. In fact, when Song Lingang had his accident, she hoped for good news every day, but in the end, she was always disappointed.

Hearing the news again now, she instinctively believed it.

On the one hand, she desperately hoped that her husband was still alive; on the other hand, Zhen'er had previously told her not to be pessimistic, that her father would come back alive.

At first, she thought it was just a consolation, but after learning about Zhen'er's abilities in metaphysics, she felt that Zhen'er might have foreseen something.

Now, hearing what the Gu family said, she was even more certain of this: if Song Lin were still alive... Just thinking about this made Liu Ruyan feel that hope had been rekindled in her life.
