Mr. Gu's little darling is incredibly cool!

Of course, the Shan family wouldn't dare to make a scene, but there's no reason for them to come over and thank them.

The three women, including Madam Gu, were completely bewildered.

"Let them in. I want to see what this old man is up to."

Madam Gu took a sip of hot tea, her expression indifferent.

The butler responded and went out to let Old Master Shan and the others in.

Soon, Old Master Shan and a middle-aged man followed the butler into the house.

"Madam Gu, it's been a long time."

Old Master Shan had a slight smile on his face.

He then looked at An Qiong and Gu Jian'an, nodding to them one by one.

Old Master Shan and Old Madam Gu were in the same regiment when they were young soldiers, so they could be considered comrades-in-arms.

"It's been a long time, so was your granddaughter's action a gift to us when we first met?"

Madam Gu's tone was indifferent.

Old Master Shan felt a jolt in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.

It was indeed Shan Li who was wrong to do those things, and he felt somewhat ashamed to face Lu Qingyun this time.

“She was in the wrong. I’m not here to plead for her. I have no objection to how Miss Lu wants to handle this.”

As he spoke, Old Master Shan glanced around.

Madam Gu glanced at him and said, "Did you come here to thank me instead of to plead for me?"

Grandpa Shan nodded, then glanced at the door and asked, "Isn't Miss Lu here?"

"You still dare to come looking for my Qingqing?"

Madam Gu stood up abruptly.

Grandpa Shan let out a sound of surprise.

"Um, don't get excited. I came here specifically to thank Miss Lu. She saved my life last time. I've been too busy lately to visit her. Although I'm a little late, it's still my way of showing my gratitude."

Grandpa Shan waved his hand at her, signaling to Madam Gu not to get too excited.

After hearing what Grandpa Shan said, the three of them were completely dumbfounded again.

save him?

Qingqing had met with Old Master Shan before?

"Honglian, go and call Qingqing here."

Old Madam Gu gave an instruction.

Honglian responded and ran off to find Lu Qingyun.

inside the house.

Lu Qingyun was examining Gu Jinming's leg, so engrossed in her work that she didn't notice the way Gu Jinming was looking at her.

A dozen seconds later, Lu Qingyun stood up. Because of low blood sugar, she had been squatting for a while and swayed a little when she stood up. Gu Jinming pulled her up.

"Be careful."

"Thank you. Did you take your medicine?"

Lu Qingyun used his strength to stand up and glanced at his legs.

"eat……"

"Young Master, is the Young Madam here? The Old Madam wants the Young Madam to go to the front hall."

Honglian's voice rang out at the door, interrupting Gu Jinming.

"Okay, I'll be right there."

Gu Jinming responded and winked at Lu Qingyun, signaling him to get the clothes.

"Here."

Lu Qingyun threw the clothes onto his lap and walked to the side.

There was a glass of water lying on the table; it had probably been there for a while.

She didn't pay any attention and picked up the glass to drink.

But, the next second, she stared in astonishment at the cup in her hand.

This is actually honey water?

It's still warm.

There is no doubt who arranged for the honey water to be prepared.

As the sound of wheels drew nearer, Lu Qingyun turned her head to look.

The man was handsome, and the dappled sunlight on his face made him look like a figure in a traditional Chinese ink painting.

In terms of looks, Gu Jinming really does have a similar appearance to Lu Qingyun.

She gulped down the water in her glass.

Lu Qingyun bit her lip, her heart beating a little faster.

"Are you feeling better?"

Gu Jinming's voice pulled her back to reality.

"Ah."

Lu Qingyun put down her cup and stepped forward to push Gu Jinming towards the door.

The two moved quickly and soon arrived at the front hall.

Lu Qingyun spotted the old man sitting on the sofa at a glance.

Old Master Shan?

Is this a plea for mercy?

"Qingqing, come sit here with Grandma."

Old Madam Gu waved to Lu Qingyun, her face full of affection.

Lu Qingyun did as instructed, and after settling Gu Jinming in, she sat down next to Old Madam Gu.

"Miss Lu."

When Grandpa Shan saw Lu Qingyun arrive, he immediately stood up, and the man behind him presented her with the gifts he was carrying.

"It's been a while since we last met. I'm very grateful to Miss Lu for saving my life that time. I've been busy with family matters and haven't had time to come and visit." Old Master Shan said, with a somewhat guilty expression on his face.

"I am deeply sorry about what happened to my daughter Lili. It was my fault for not disciplining her properly. Her parents are busy with work and have little time to look after her, which led to her personality."

"I'm not here to ask for Miss Lu's forgiveness. I'm mainly here to express my gratitude for what happened last time. There's nothing else. I hope Miss Lu won't blame me for coming uninvited this time."

Old Master Shan's tone was very gentle, without a trace of harshness.

No one would argue with this old man.

Apart from Lu Qingyun and Gu Jinming, who knew the situation, Old Madam Gu and the others were completely bewildered.

Did Qingqing really save Old Master Shan?

How did she save her?

What happened at that time?

This was the question in the minds of the three.

But no one asked.

Lu Qingyun appeared to be sitting lazily, but in reality, her back was straight. "Sorry is useless; what's done is done."

A simple sentence made Old Master Shan's face turn ashen.

I appreciate your kindness, but please take the items back.

Lu Qingyun pushed the thing that the middle-aged man handed to her towards Old Master Shan.

"Miss Lu, if you don't accept my gifts, it's the same as not accepting my thanks."

Old Master Shan turned his face away, giving the impression that he wouldn't leave until the other man accepted his things.

Lu Qingyun glanced at him lazily, about to say something, when Gu Jinming wheeled himself closer.

He picked up the gift on the table and glanced at it. "The jewelry is of good quality. Old Master Shan is very thoughtful."

"Qingqing, keep it. It's not that we can't accept a belated wedding gift."

Gu Jinming smiled slightly and glanced at Old Master Shan with half-closed eyes.

Even the veteran of the battlefield, Old Master Shan, had to admit that Gu Jinming's eyes were far too ruthless.

Even a light sweep can send shivers down one's spine.

After seeing Grandpa Shan off, An Qiong took Lu Qingyun's arm and asked, "Qingqing, what did Grandpa Shan mean when he said you saved him?"

Before Lu Qingyun could speak, Gu Jinming said, "It means literally that your daughter-in-law is very capable. Mom, dig deeper, maybe there are other surprises."

Lu Qingyun: ...

This guy definitely needs to be taught a lesson.

However, his words saved her from having to explain to Anqiong and the others why she knew Han Xiu and the people from Chengyuan Mansion.

An Qiong covered her mouth and laughed for a while. Lu Qingyun glanced at her and found that there was more heartache in her eyes than surprise and confusion.

She had only ever seen that kind of gaze on Aunt Huang.

Lu Qingyun squeezed her hand and gave her a reassuring smile.

"By the way, Qingqing, I heard that a celebrity will be holding a concert here around next week. I'll get you and Ajin some tickets so you can bring your friends to see the show and relax a bit."

concert?

Are you talking about Kota?
