Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Gu Teng coaxed Yunbao to finish her breakfast and played with her dolls. When Lily returned, the two of them chatted intimately before she left Yunbao’s room.
Cheng Xi looked at her serious expression and asked, “Did something happen?”
“l don’t know either.” Gu Teng sighed. “1 keep feeling that something is going to happen.”
Cheng Xi quickly walked over and held her hand. “Don’t think too much. The children have already returned safely. This incident must have frightened you.”
Gu Teng shook her head. “Just now, Yunbao told me that she had a dream. She said that someone killed her in the dream. I almost couldn’t hold it in after hearing that.”
Cheng Xi could understand Gu Tengs feelings. Previously, when she was still in Country Y, she was on tenterhooks every day, afraid that Devon would hit Lily again. At that time, she really wished she could guard Lily day and night, like a knife that could fall at any time.
“Gu Teng, we’re all here. We’re all protecting Yunbao. Even Yunbao is constantly growing by herself. You don’t have to be so worried,” Cheng Xi said gently. “Believe me, Yunbao is chosen by the heavens. She will definitely be fine.’
Under Cheng Xi’s comforting words, Gu Teng finally cried out. Her worries turned into tears to vent. When she finally cried enough, the emotions in her heart disappeared.
Seeing that she had calmed down, Cheng Xi smiled and said, “Alright, I’m preparing to make the children’s favorite snacks. Come with me.”
The two of them went to the kitchen together. Only then did Xiao Jing and Gu Peng, who were hiding in the corner, come out. The two of them were originally here to comfort her, but they didn’t expect that they didn’t need them anymore.
Gu Peng smiled and said, “Looks like we’re a little redundant.”
“Fortunately, I didn’t go out. Otherwise, I would definitely be despised.” Xiao Jing nodded.
Gu Peng looked at Yunbao’s door and said, “Little Sister is actually so worried about Yunbao. Looks like we didn’t let Little Sister trust us. She doesn’t think we can protect Yunbao.”
Hearing him say this, Xiao Jing also became depressed. It was because he did not give his wife a sense of security that she had been worried about their daughter’s safety.
At the thought of this, the two of them suddenly looked up at each other and said, “We should discuss it.”
After saying that, the two of them were stunned. They did not expect the other party to say the same thing. They smiled and quickly went to look for Gu Lin and the others.
The men of the Gu family gathered in the garden. Xiao Jing relayed Gu Tengs words to them and said, “We have to do something to make Gu Teng feel at ease.”
Hearing their sister’s thoughts, everyone fell silent. After a while, Gu Lin said, “Although we have to ease her mood, we can’t trap Yunbao at home. We can only let her trust us more and make her believe that we can protect Yunbao.”
“l remember that there are many sorcerers in the Rong family. Why don’t we find them to discuss countermeasures? There must be a way to strengthen the protection. At the very least, Yunbao can protect herself immediately when she encounters danger,” Gu Luo said.
This idea was approved by everyone. Gu Lin immediately changed his clothes and went to the Rong family, planning to borrow someone from Old Master Rong.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he sat down, he heard someone run in and say,
“Master, there’s something unusual in the backyard.”
Old Master Rong ran to the back in a panic. Although Gu Lin did not know what had happened, seeing Old Master Rongs anxious expression, he simply walked over and helped him run. This way, he could move faster.
This was the first time Gu Lin had come to the Rong family’s backyard. The rocks and trees that covered the sky formed a barrier. He could not believe his eyes. Such a scene actually appeared in such an imposing mansion.
A group of people was gathered there, and everyone’s faces were filled with surprise. Old Master Rong walked over and asked, “What exactly happened?”
The wizards gathered around and said, “There was an abnormality behind this morning. We’re investigating what happened. Just now, even the magic circle stopped working. I wonder if something happened to Young Master.”
These words were like a bolt from the blue for Old Master Rong. His son was already dead and only his grandson was left. If anything happened again, he really wouldn’t be able to hold on.
Fortunately, Gu Lin was supporting him at the side. After Old Master Rong recovered, he said sternly, “You have to investigate Rong Xuan!s situation immediately. If you can’t do it, return my Rong family’s previous magic artifacts..
