347:

In the manor, Gu Qiao stood on the balcony, looking at the crescent moon in the sky.

The temperature difference across the border is huge. During the day, the sun is shining brightly, but at night, it feels like winter has entered.

The cold wind blew over and my face hurt a little.

Shi Jiudu held the blanket in his arms and rubbed his fair chin on the little girl's head.

"What are you thinking about?"

Gu Qiao lowered his eyes and shook his head. "It's nothing."

Shi Jiudu sighed slightly. "Who are you worried about?"

"The Qi family is still your mother."

Shi Jiudu paused for a while, then continued: "Still..."

"I."

Gu Qiao's lowered eyes flickered for a second, but there was no response from Shi Jiudu.

Ji Wei's words explained a lot of things. But they also revealed something vaguely.

Metaphysics is a very mysterious thing. In addition, Mr. Ji's metaphysics skills are indeed quite good.

Shi Jiudu had speculated before that the sudden disappearance of the Qi family's powers was related to Yun Xi and his father.

I also speculated that Yun Xi might not be dead. As the little girl said, the only thing that died might be her body.

However, Ji Wei probably still had something to say that he had not finished saying just now, but he would not say it anymore.

Gu Qiao bent over and leaned on the balcony railing with his hands crossed. He rested his chin on his arms and looked out at the dark night sky.

"Do you believe in fate?"

After Gu Qiao finished speaking, he didn't seem to be ready for Shi Jiudu to answer, but continued speaking softly and calmly.

"I only believe that fate is in my own hands."

"No matter what happened in the past, the future..."

"It's in my own hands."

Gu Qiao's body suddenly burst out with strong vitality and firm hope.

This was a kind of vitality that Shi Jiudu had never seen in Gu Qiao before.

Shi Jiudu bent down and placed a kiss on the top of Gu Qiao's hair. "Well, I believe you."

Shi Jiudu never believed in heaven, earth, or fate. After meeting Gu Qiao, his only belief was in Gu Qiao.

Ji Wei's words tonight actually tacitly left a lot of doubts and speculations in the minds of the two of them.

But neither of them mentioned it again.

Just like Gu Qiao said, the future should be controlled by themselves.

*

Early the next morning, before dawn, a black figure quietly left the manor.

"Gu Qiao, are you sure you really want me to go?"

Ji Wei thought about it for most of the night, but still couldn't figure out why Gu Qiao gave him such a life-saving amulet.

With this life-saving talisman, no one, not even the king of Kos, can do anything to him.

Gu Qiao lazily raised his eyelids. "You don't have to go."

Ji Wei:……

You would be a real fool not to go.

Ji Wei: "I can also give you a piece of news. Do you want to know who Mr. Jing is?"

Gu Qiao raised his hand and yawned. "I don't want to know."

Then he turned around, closed the door, went back to his big bed, and continued to sleep.

Ji Wei left the manor quietly, but was escorted away.

When there was movement in the next room, Shi Jiudu felt it.

He came to the window and saw Ji Wei being escorted out of the manor by several people.

In the middle of last night, Gu Qiao left the room and was supposed to find Ji Wei.

But he came back soon.

Shi Jiudu didn't open the door and asked her what she was doing, so he could only pretend not to know.

What the little girl fears most is trouble, but now, she has escorted this trouble away and seems to be ready to protect it.

Shi Jiudu twirled his fingers, and his indifferent eyes turned into a deep darkness.

When Gu Qiao woke up again, it was already noon, and everyone in the sun outside felt a little unexplainably irritated.

When Gu Qiao came down from upstairs, he saw a patient who was sweating profusely and carrying a small rag in the living room.

As soon as Gu Jing saw Gu Qiao, his eyes immediately lit up.

"Xiaoqiao, are we going back?" It had been a while since Gu Jing woke up, but his body was still gradually recovering.

So he doesn't come out often, and besides, he doesn't want to come over to eat dog food or anything like that.

It's not good to disturb a young couple.

Gu Qiao lazily walked to the living room. As soon as she got downstairs, she smelled the aroma of rice and tea in the living room.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, I really can't tell, Master Du's skills are good." To be honest, Gu Jing has been shocked by this man Shi Jiudu these days.

Not only can he go to the hall, he can make all the difference in the shopping mall; he can even go to the kitchen and cook such a delicious meal.

According to the people in Shannai, he is basically the only one who has time, and he cooks most of Gu Qiao's meals.

Gu Qiao sat at the dining table and then raised his head to respond to Gu Jing. "Well, his craftsmanship is very good."

This was the first time that Gu Jing heard Gu Qiao praise someone so sincerely, and there was also a hint of arrogance.

Just as he was about to say a few more words, he heard Gu Qiao say something else.

"Let's go back. You can't leave yet."

In an instant, Gu Jing felt bad all over.

Gu Qiao actually added in a good mood and explained: "Now that you are back in country C, the situation is not good for you."

"I remember your contract expires at the end of this month."

"How do you plan to go back and solve the problem?"

"With your broken body?"

Gu Jing:~!~!

It's not that serious, isn't his body gradually recovering?

Shi Jiudu also came in with the last dish at this time. After seeing Gu Qiao's words, he naturally understood what the little girl was going to say.

"You can recover your body and fitness here before going back."

"It just so happens that the Empire Group wants to expand into the entertainment industry. Should Mr. Gu consider joining the Empire Group?"

Gu Jing:......

Is he receiving special care from the boss?

Who knew that Gu Qiao actually said directly: "No need. I have already set up the studio. He can open it when he gets back."

Gu Jing immediately leaned in Gu Qiao's direction. "Xiao Qiao, do you want to flatter me?"

Gu Qiao lowered his eyes and flipped through his phone carelessly.

"Don't you like singing?" If you do it yourself, you don't have to compromise.

Gu Jinggang wanted to say thank you, but Gu Qiao said, "Just give me some money."

Gu Jing: "Are you short of money?" As far as Gu Jing knew, even she couldn't figure out how much Gu Qiao's assets were.

Gu Qiao said bluntly: "No one will complain about the lack of money."

Gu Jing: Well, this is no longer the little girl who regards money as dirt.

Is Gu Qiao short of money? No?

Is Gu Jing short of money? No?

He can do whatever he wants in the studio, and he doesn't have any connections. After all, he has been in this industry for so long.

However, Gu Jing was a million times willing to follow Gu Qiao.

In the past, Gu Qiao was afraid that Hubert would discover their whereabouts and take them back, so Gu Qiao kept a certain distance from them.

When we meet, we feel like strangers.
