Gu Qingling slowly opened her eyes, and all she saw was the lush vegetation.
She rubbed her eyes blankly, her cherry-like mouth slightly open.
Could it be that you were dreaming just now?
But where is this place?
She stood up unsteadily, but heard footsteps in the distance.
Not long after, a strong and tall figure pushed aside the weeds and looked at her in astonishment.
"Found it!"
The man shouted something behind him and walked towards her quickly.
Lu Qingling was so frightened that she kept backing away with tearful eyes.
"Yeah!"
Suddenly, she tripped over a stone and sat down on the ground, tears streaming down her face.
The man opposite him froze and stretched out his hand to her at a loss.
"Little, little sister, are you okay? I am a brother, not a bad person!"
Brother?
Gu Qingling was stunned, looking at him with misty eyes, and hesitated: "I have never seen you."
Gu Yun's ambition suddenly felt extremely sour.
That's right, when we took her out of the village, she was dying, so naturally she didn't remember herself.
"Qingling, I am your third brother! I will not hurt you!"
Gu Qingling timidly glanced at the big man in front of her.
Fierce, but his eyes are full of anxiety at this moment, without any malice.
"Three, third brother..."
The little guy called softly.
Gu Yunye's body froze again.
His face suddenly turned red and he didn't know where to put his hands.
Finally, he quickly responded: "Hey! I'm here!"
By the time he took the little guy out of the jungle, the people outside were already going crazy.
Gu Cangyin's face was gloomy, and his whole body exuded a chilling air.
Until Gu Yunye shouted: "Second brother, I found my little sister!"
His expression softened and he walked forward quickly.
"Little sister..." Gu Cangyin lowered his eyes and stared at her deeply.
Lu Qingling blinked.
She recognizes the person in front of her!
When he was in pain and suffering, it was this big brother who helped him!
It turns out to be my second brother.
Gu Qingling slowly opened her arms toward him, and her voice was nasal and milky.
"Second brother, hug me!"
Gu Cangyin's eyelashes suddenly trembled and became slightly wet.
He held the little one tightly in his arms, with his tall nose pressed against her floral-scented neck.
"I'm sorry, little sister. It's my brother who didn't take good care of you..."
Gu Qingling didn't understand why he wanted to apologize to her and why he was crying.
I could only pat him on the shoulder awkwardly.
At the same time, in the dense forest.
After Gu Yunye left, Pei Hongdu crushed the breath-holding charm on his body and slowly walked out of the shadows.
"Gu... Qingling."
He lowered his eyes and slowly murmured the name.
Suddenly, the mark on his chest started to hurt again, as if it was making his flesh and blood boil.
He spit out a large mouthful of blood and fell to the ground unsteadily, his whole body trembling.
……
Gu Qingling was surrounded by Gu disciples and sent into the Medicine Hall.
Elder Mancao and Gu Cangyin personally diagnosed and treated the disease. Such a huge battle almost alarmed the entire disciples of the Medical Questioning Hall.
This group of people ran over in a panic, but all they saw was a white milk dumpling.
Gu Qingling was sitting on the bamboo chair, her sleeves were lifted up, revealing a small scratch.
His big black eyes were looking blankly at this group of people.
"Second brother, am I seriously ill? Why are there so many people here..."
She was just scratched!
Gu Cangyin flicked the potion with her slender fingers, and glanced at the group of people with a pair of peach blossom eyes.
"Is the medicine hall very busy?"
"No, no!"
"Oh, I don't think so." He said coldly: "The disciples of Wen Yao Hall who are present, go and copy the second chapter of Cangfu Medicine Manual ten times. I will personally check it tomorrow. Everyone, please go down."
Ten times!
Amid the wails, the group of disciples hurriedly retreated.
But Lu Qingling chuckled.
"Second brother, you are so powerful, they are all afraid of you."
Gu Cangyin's eyes flickered: "Then, is Ling'er afraid of me?"
"Don't be afraid!"
Lu Qingling's little short legs swayed slightly, and her eyes rolled up with a smile.
"Second brother is so kind to me, I'm not afraid!"
The tension in Gu Cangyin's eyes immediately dissipated.
Wait for Elder Mancao to come over with the wound medicine and bandage her carefully.
Gu Qingling was hugged by Gu Cangyin and brought to a separate room in the medicine hall.
As soon as he opened the door, Gu Yunye rushed over in a hurry.
"Little sister! Are you okay? Where are you injured?"
Gu Cangyin frowned and distanced herself from him: "Ling'er's arm is a little scratched, but everything else is fine."
Several people in the room breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Qingling blinked her big eyes and looked at the other people in the room.
Well, fourth brother and fifth brother are here too.
And...Daddy.
She lowered her eyes in loneliness and crawled into Gu Cangyin's arms.
Gu Cangyin keenly noticed something and raised his eyes to glance at his father.
"Rujing, go and call Mingzhu over."
Gu Rujing pushed the frame on the bridge of her nose, silently stood up and left.
Gu Sheng frowned: "Why are you calling Mingzhu here?"
"Of course I have something to ask."
He hugged Gu Qingling and sat down, far away from Gu Sheng.
Gu Qingling also breathed a sigh of relief and quietly moved her butt farther away.
Soon, Gu Rujing walked in holding Gu Mingzhu.
As soon as she came in, she shouted "godfather" sweetly and rushed towards Gu Sheng.
"Mingzhu." Gu Cangyin called her in a cold voice: "Ling'er's body hasn't recovered yet, why did you take her out without permission?"
As soon as she said this, everyone in the room looked at her.
Gu Mingzhu's petite body froze for a moment, and she looked at Gu Cangyin timidly.
"Yes, she said she wanted to see her father and kept arguing, so I brought her out..."
Gu Rujing narrowed his eyes, and Gu Cangyin sneered in his heart.
When Gu Qingling heard this sentence, her mouth opened in surprise.
"I didn't!" She said blankly: "Miss, did you remember it wrong? It was you who said you wanted to take me to see my godfather, so I followed you there."
Gu Mingzhu's face turned red all of a sudden, and she shouted loudly: "You just remembered it wrong! You were the one who clamored for me to take you there!"
Lu Qingling was startled by her loud voice, and her shoulders shook violently.
But, if you haven’t done something before, you haven’t done it yet!
She bit her lower lip in grievance, and said firmly with eyes: "I remember correctly. I remember it very clearly. After the fourth brother left, the fifth brother also left. You said you wanted to take me to see dad, so I followed you.
I left. I didn’t make any noise or make a fuss."
After saying these words, she realized, was she contradicting Gu Mingzhu?
In the past, every time she contradicted Aunt Zhao, she would be beaten severely.
So this time too...
Gu Qingling's eyes suddenly turned red, her face turned pale, and she said softly: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said this, don't hit me."
As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Cangyin suddenly hugged her into his arms.
His voice trembled: "It's okay, no matter how much I say, it'll be okay, Ling'er. No one will hit you again in the future, brother, I promise you!"
Gu Yunye's expression also changed several times, and he suppressed the urge to kill someone.
"Gu Mingzhu! Lower your voice! You're scaring my little sister!"
Gu Rujing frowned: "You have something to say, can't you say it properly?"
Gu Chenying, who had been silent all this time, snorted arrogantly: "You guys are so troublesome!"
When Gu Mingzhu saw this, she couldn't help feeling aggrieved.
She sat down on the ground, kicked up her legs, and cried loudly and hoarsely.
"I didn't lie! She was the one who lied! You all bullied me, you all bullied me, wuwuwu——"
"Okay!"
Gu Sheng slammed the table and glanced at Gu Qingling who was being held, his eyes full of disgust.
He hugged Gu Mingzhu distressedly.
"Is this such a big deal? Cangyin, Gu Qingling is your little sister, but Zhuzhu is not?"
With Gu Sheng's support, Gu Mingzhu became even more unscrupulous.
She pointed her finger at Gu Qingling: "Godfather! She lied as soon as she came. Zhuzhu doesn't like her!"
