Chapter 709: Gu Yundong’s Guilt

Editor: Henyee Translations

Gu Yundong patted her hand and said, “Since you came to look for Bai Muzi, why didn’t you tell me the day before yesterday?”

“It’s not easy to get Bai Muzi. I’m worried that it’s fake news. We have to confirm it first. Otherwise, won’t all of you be happy for nothing?”

Reality proved that it was indeed fake.

Even though he didn’t have much hope from the beginning, Shao Qingyuan was still disappointed.

Gu Yundong asked him, “Other than this time, how many other times have you heard news about Bai Muzi?”

“Two times, I guess. Unfortunately, neither of them are real...”

Gu Yundong fell silent for a moment.

She did not speak. Shao Qingyuan could not help but pat her back. “What’s wrong? There’s no need to be disheartened. We’ll find it eventually. It’s not like there’s only one Bai Muzi in the world. We’ll find it if we search longer.”

Gu Yundong sighed and smiled bitterly. “Bai Muzi is clearly what my mother needs. I’m not as focused on that as you.”

She felt ashamed. It seemed that ever since she brought Madam Yang to see Song Dejiang and confirmed that her life was not in danger, Gu Yundong had been half relieved. Although she was also looking for Bai Muzi, she was no longer in such a hurry.

She was really too used to doing everything herself, even though she had a family and a fiancé now.

However, she was only one person after all. There were some things that she could hand over to someone close and trusted, right?

Gu Yundong suddenly understood. She hugged Shao Qingyuan. “Alright, let’s work hard together. I’ll be in charge of working hard to earn money. You’ll be in charge of finding medicinal herbs and treating my mother.”

“Okay.”

The woman in his arms was soft. Holding her, Shao Qingyuan felt unprecedented satisfaction. He couldn’t bear to let go.

Unfortunately, there was a commotion outside the door.

Gu Yundong let go of him and rubbed his face twice with a smile until it was red. “It’s getting late. Let’s go back first.”

Shao Qingyuan heaved a sigh of relief and pulled her open the door.

The few people standing outside were stunned for a moment and quickly took a few steps forward.

Shao Qingyuan and Xue Qin didn’t look at the expectant Xue Qin and walked out of Village Chief Jiao’s house first.

The Jiao Village was very lively. Shao Qingyuan didn’t care and the group walked towards the entrance of the village.
