Chapter 12
Gu Shiyan raised his eyebrows. According to what she said earlier, wasn’t there only one day left?
Feeling the warmth on her fingertips, a sudden memory flashed through his mind of the day when she asked him to reach out his hand.
No wonder he had been feeling much better these two days. He didn’t feel so uncomfortable when he ate.
However, defying fate always come at a cost. He did not know what she had paid.
His eyes darkened as he looked at her. ” You’re giving me such a big gift? ”
“Don’t worry about it. I just don’t like to owe people favors.”
Lu Miao let go of his wrist. ” Besides, it doesn’t seem to have much effect. ”
Gu Shiyan chuckled. Giving someone 24 hours of life, if this ability were to be known, who knew how many people would go crazy for it.
However, it seems like it’s not remarkable enough for her, saying that it had no effect.
“Not bad, enough for me to fly back and forth.”
Seeing that she was about to leave, he smiled and said, ” I’ll send you back. ”
“No need.”
Lu Miao refused. She looked at the remaining food on the table and said, ” Don’t waste it. ”
Then, she turned around and walked straight in the direction of the Gu family.
Baili had already gotten out of the car. Without Gu Shiyan’s instructions, he had already made a call to arrange everything.
Gu Shiyan stood still and watched his little friend walk away. He lowered his head and looked at his fingertips.
It seemed to still have the warmth of her wrist on it.
Thirty-six hours. It was now seven in the morning, which meant that he would die at seven tomorrow night.
For the first time, Gu Shiyan felt a trace of regret about the fact that he was about to die.
He clenched his fists and turned to look at the remaining breakfast on the table. ” Take it away. ”
When Baili heard this, he was so excited that he was about to cry.
Oh my god, not only did Mr Gu eat breakfast, but he also wants to pack and take it away for the next meal!
Previously, when he went to fetch Lu Miao from the Lu family, he heard Lu Miao say that Mr Gu was about to die, so he did not like Lu Miao very much.
He was wrong. Young Madam is an angel sent by the heavens to save Mr. Gu!
He quickly went up to the boss and asked for a takeaway box. Then, he carefully packed the remaining breakfast on the table and took it away.
Gu Shiyan took a step forward, then turned around to look at the dumpling soup that Lu Miao had already taken a bite of.
He signaled and said, “Also, don’t waste that.”
Baili blinked. Waste?
Since when did Mr Gu have such a concept?
Moreover, Miss Lu had already taken two bites of the soup dumplings!
it seemed that Second Master really liked to eat soup dumplings.
He quickly went forward to keep it and secretly asked the boss to stuff a few more.
..
When Lu Miao returned home, Shen Qinghe was deep in thought looking at the large and small courier packages in the living room.
Upon seeing her return, she asked her about her day and learned that she had gone out to exercise early in the morning, so she didn’t dwell on it for too long.
“Miao Miao, let me add you on WeChat.”
Lu Miao did not understand what was going on and took out her phone to open WeChat.
Just as she added her, a notification sounded.
She saw a WeChat notification that Shen Qinghe had transferred two million yuan to her.
Afraid that she wouldn’t accept it, Shen Qinghe quickly clicked and accepted it for her.
“This is your pocket money. Take it first. If you need anything, just buy it yourself.”
When she saw those boxes, she realized that she had not thought things through. She had only prepared all sorts of things for Lu Miao, but she had forgotten that the leeching couple from the Lu family would not give her any pocket money.
The betrothal gifts, shares, and real estate were not cash. She probably did not have any money on hand.
So much so that she had to go online to buy the things she needed.
She might even have to compare them and choose the cheaper ones to buy.
Thinking of this, her heart ached.
Lu Miao was baffled. ” Aunty Shen, I have money. ”
Shen Qinghe nodded, looking as if she understood and did not need to explain.
She patted her hand and said, ” Just accept it. I heard that many things on the Internet are fake and of poor quality. Many of them are harmful to the human body. In the future, if you want to buy anything, try to buy those expensive ones from the shop.”
Only then did Lu Miao realize what was going on. She did not know whether to laugh or cry.
The boxes on the ground were the things she had ordered on the forum.
However, the existence of the forum and many of its contents were confidential.
Those boxes were only disguised as courier packages and were not actually delivered by a courier service.
Shen Qinghe had probably misunderstood something and imagined quite a bit
But she couldn’t tell her the truth, so she had no choice but to accept it.
“Thank you, Auntie Shen.”
Just as she was about to bend down to move the boxes, Shen Qinghe quickly reached out and pulled her back. ” Don’t move. ”
She called the servants to move everything to her room.
“You’re a weak woman who can’t carry or lift anything on your shoulders. How can you do this?”
“In the future, just let the servants do these things. I brought you back to the Gu family so that you can enjoy life, not work. Look at you, you’re so thin. Don’t tire yourself out.”
Lu Miao ???
Couldn’t carry anything, couldn’t lift anything?
What did she do to give Shen Qinghe such a misconception?
Lu Miao was seriously considering whether she should show Shen Qinghe that she could break a rock on her chest.
“Shen…”
Shen Qinghe looked Lu Miao up and down and interrupted her worriedly, ” No, you need more nourishment. ”
“Auntie Lan, call the nutritionist and ask him to come over and customize a diet for Miao Miao to nourish her body…”
With that, she turned around and went to the kitchen to look for Auntie Lan.
Looking at her back, Lu Miao sighed helplessly and turned to go upstairs.
The school of metaphysics emphasizes karma above anything else.
Since she was young, her master had repeatedly warned her that defying fate was equivalent to trading her own life for it and it must never be attempted.
She had already made an exception by extending Gu Shiyan’s life previously.
She had originally planned to leave the Gu family in a few days, but now that Shen Qinghe had been so good to her and she was forced to take so many things from the Gu family, she had no choice but to deal with Gu Shiyan’s matters.
The boxes had been delivered to the room and placed neatly on the floor.
Inside were some of the things she needed to practice her cultivation and craft her magic tools.
This world was very similar to her previous world, and her ability seemed to be unaffected.
Although she didn’t know why she was transported here or when she might be sent back, she knew that strength was the foundation of survival.
Only when she was strong enough could he become a stronger existence and protect herself and the people around her.
As for the Lu family and the Gu family, she had never thought of relying on them.
It took almost a day to sort through everything.
Shen Qinghe respected her very much, giving her ample freedom and personal space. She never disturbed her or asked her what she was doing.
Gu Xingyu, on the other hand, persistently poke her head around her door every day, despite being scolded by Shen Qinghe several times for it.
Unlike Shen Qinghe, even though the grandma, Zhou Yuying, had never expressed any dissatisfaction with her, but she genuinely disliked her because of the Lu family’s previous actions.
After returning, she spent most of her time in the ancestral hall.
It was even more difficult for her to find an opportunity to go in and investigate further.
The next afternoon, Lu Miao finished all her work and took out her textbook and exercises. She sat in front of her desk and did her homework.
The sound of a car driving to the door could be heard.
The sound of the engine was steady and powerful. It was a Maybach S62, Gu Shiyan’s car.
He looked down at the time. It was 6:35.
There were 25 minutes left before his death of 7:00.
He was really punctual, even when it came to his own death.
