Translator: Atlas StudiosEditor: Atlas Studios
Looking at Jiang Yu’s drenched and pitiful appearance in front of her, Mo Zhu pondered quietly for a moment and replied lightly, “Alright, get out of the car. I’ll get Uncle Zhang to send you home first.”
She brought Jiang Yu to the car Huo Xuan had just driven over. Mo Zhu opened the car door and said to the man in the back seat, “Jiang Yu is staying at our home for a few days. Take her home first. Ill get Uncle Zhang to send me to school.”
After saying this, without waiting for Huo Xuan to nod, Mo Zhu raised her hand to the girl, signaling her to get into the car. Then, she turned around and returned to Uncle Zhang’s car.
When Huo Xuan heard this, he frowned with a headache. It was already very troublesome having Kang Wan living at home, and now Jiang Yu was here too. He really didn’t understand what was wrong. The Huo residence wasn’t a top-notch place with good feng shui. Why were all of them rushing to move
in?
After Mo Zhu left, Jiang Yu sat in another seat in the back and observed Huo Xuan quietly.
Seeing the girl’s soft and weak appearance, Huo Xuan thought that she had a good relationship with Mo Zhu and thought that she was just a curious sister of his fiancé. At this moment, he didn’t take Jiang Yu’s scrutiny seriously.
After placing the young lady at the Huo family’s house, Huo Xuan received a call at the last minute to go to the company to deal with something, He took out a stack of cash from his wallet and stuffed it into Jiang Yu’s hand. He opened the Huo family’s door and said, “I’m sorry, I have something urgent to
attend to. You should go in and rest well. I’ll get someone to send you food in the afternoon. If you want to buy anything, you can go out and buy it. Or you can send a message to Xiao Zhu to inform me. I can ask someone to send it over.”
As Old Guo was also at home, Huo Xuan wasn’t too worried about Jiang Yu’s safety. After seeing the girl nod and enter, he instructed the driver to start the car and leave the Huo residence.
After school in the evening, Huo Xuan personally drove to pick up Mo Zhu. After returning to the Huo residence, the kitchen had already sent someone to send dinner over.
As three people had suddenly moved into the house. Huo Xuan specially instructed the chef to prepare a few more dishes. In addition, because Old Guo was picky, he personally looked at the menu and chose the dishes.
After dinner, Jiang Yu obediently tidied up the table and started washing the dishes. Mo Zhu sat on the sofa, leaning lazily against a pillow and playing with her phone. After a while, she suddenly recalled the matter about the Jade-faced Guan Yin statue, so she looked around for Old Guo.
‘Mo Zhu stood up and walked around the house. When she saw Elder Guo smoking alone on the balcony, she quickly walked forward and pushed open the door of the balcony to the old man’s side.
She raised her hand and patted Elder Guo’s shoulder. Mo Zhu raised her eyebrows and asked indifferently, “Why are you smoking alone here? Is there something bothering you?”
When Elder Guo heard Mo Zhu’s voice behind him, he looked at the night view outside the window in melancholy. He sighed slightly and said, “My good disciple, Master is leaving.”
Just as she finished speaking, Mo Zhu frowned anxiously and asked, “You’re leaving after only a few days? Where are you going?”
“Tm going to do what I didn’t do back then.” Old Guo took a deep breath and exhaled smoke rings slowly. There was a deep meaning in his eyes that Mo Zhu couldn’t understand. “Girl, Master has done a lot of comfortable things according to his wishes in his life, but as a person who lives in the world,
there are some responsibilities that can’t be removed from his shoulders. Now, it’s time for me to complete my mission!”
When Mo Zhu heard this, she lowered her eyes and fell silent.
She understood the hidden meaning in the old man’s words. In fact, her master and grandmother were very similar. All of them had a mission that had been given to them by their families since they were born. It might take a long time or it might be short, but they had to do their best to complete these
missions.
Seeing that Mo Zhu was silent, Old Guo snuffed out the cigarette in his hand and turned to look at the girl’s lowered eyebrows. He smiled sincerely and said, “Girl, the proudest thing I have done coming into this world is meeting you and taking you as my disciple. I don’t know when the next time we’ll
meet after I leave this time. Before I leave, I have something to tell you.”
After a pause, Elder Guo patted the girl’s shoulder. “You have to preserve the Jade-faced Guan Yin statue well. You can’t let it fall into the hands of others, or the tragedy from back then will definitely happen again.”
Upon hearing this, Mo Zhu looked up at Old Guo in shock. She had yet to speak! How did Old Guo know about the Jade-faced Guan Yin?
After saying this, the old man didn’t stay any longer. He stood up and left the balcony. The instant he opened the door, he saw Huo Xuan waiting for Mo Zhu to come out from the corridor. He took two steps forward to the man and instructed in a low voice, “Child, I’ve entrusted Xiao Zhu to you.. You have
to take good care of her in the future!”
