Chapter 135: Truly Too Arrogant!
After resolving the conflict between the Tang Sect and the He Sect, Gu Yu was eager to go home!
Although his younger brother-in-law, Gu Qingheng, didn’t want to leave so soon.
However, realizing that they had been at the Tang Sect for quite some time, Gu Qingheng could only sadly prepare to bid farewell to Tang Lian and look forward to their next meeting.
Nevertheless, at Gu Qingheng’s strong request, the time was extended by three days.
During this time, he and Tang Lian toured Lianzhou together, creating many beautiful memories.
They also released river lanterns together at night, making wishes.
“Qingheng, you’re leaving soon, hurry up and pack!”
“So soon!”
Just as they were about to leave the next day, Gu Yu reminded his brother-in-law not to forget the time.
Upon hearing this, Gu Qingheng immediately became dejected and slumped onto the bed, looking unhappy, as if he wanted to escape reality.
“Of course, you don’t really want to stay here and become a live-in son-in-law, do you!”
“If I really stayed here, brother-in-law, you’d have to face my sister’s wrath when you return!”
“So, even for your brother-in-law’s sake, don’t harbor any illusions! Hurry up and pack, we’ll leave directly tomorrow.”
“Aren’t we waiting for the Tang Sect’s farewell?”
Upon hearing Gu Yu’s words, Gu Qingheng couldn’t help but lift his head from the quilt in confusion, not understanding what Gu Yu meant.
Leave directly…
Did they not have a farewell party?!
In that case, he wouldn’t be able to bid farewell to Sister Lian!!!
“Well, we can just leave directly. Otherwise, if we let the Tang Sect and the He Sect see us off, we probably won’t be able to leave all day tomorrow.”
“No, I haven’t said goodbye to Sister Lian yet! I absolutely cannot leave without saying goodbye, Sister Lian will be sad!”
“Even if you can’t tomorrow, you can go say goodbye now!”
“…”
Since Gu Yu was adamant about leaving directly tomorrow, Gu Qingheng had no choice but to get out of bed and prepare to secretly go and bid farewell to Sister Lian.
Gu Qingheng understood what his brother-in-law had said.
Gu Yu had contributed greatly to resolving the conflict between the two sects… and when they left tomorrow, the escort party would definitely be very grand. In such a situation, it would be too difficult to leave quickly.
They had already delayed for three days, and if they delayed again tomorrow, Gu Qingheng felt that his brother-in-law would explode!
Therefore, it was better to obediently say goodbye to Sister Lian now!
However, if he had time in the future, he would definitely visit Sister Lian.
After all, his brother-in-law had promised!
…
“Qingheng, did you leak the information, you brat!”
“No! Last night, I just talked with Sister Lian for a while, and after saying goodbye, I came back directly… However, perhaps your intention to leave was too obvious, which is why it turned out this way!”
“You mean… Tang Haocang saw through my actions? Impossible, such a low-level mistake would never happen to me.”
“Hush, they’re coming!”
Early the next morning, to prevent any accidents, Gu Yu got up very early and called Gu Qingheng and Xi Yang to leave their residence.
The journey was extremely smooth. The people from the Tang Sect were as if they were still asleep, and no one noticed them leave.
This made Gu Yu feel a bit proud inwardly, thinking that his stealth skills were too powerful, which was why no one discovered them.
However, when the three of them were about to leave Lianzhou on horseback, Gu Yu realized that he was still too naive!
Because a group of people was guarding the border of Lianzhou, looking at them with smiles.
Taking a rough look, Gu Yu recognized many familiar faces.
For instance, the Tang Sect members, with whom he was extremely familiar.
And among them, there were even people from the He Sect… In addition to the father and son He Li, there were also Fu Lin and others who had tried to ambush him before, holding a pile of gifts.
It seemed they were brought here to make up the numbers.
“Little Brother Gu, it’s fortunate we came early! Otherwise, you would have left without saying goodbye!”
“Elder He, what is this…”
“Haha, it’s also because I’m well-informed. Knowing that you were leaving today, I brought people here to see you off.”
“Where did Sect Leader Tang get the news?”
As Gu Yu rode his horse to everyone, Tang Haocang and He Li spoke with smiles, causing Gu Yu’s mouth to twitch involuntarily. He had no idea where they got the information!
He had made thorough preparations for a smooth departure today.
However, all his efforts were in vain!
But Gu Yu suspected that his younger brother-in-law might have slipped up.
While Gu Yu was talking to the two, the people standing around were astonished.
Although they already knew Gu Yu’s identity was extraordinary, to have two important figures from two sects value him so highly was truly not to be underestimated!
One was the Sect Leader of the Tang Sect, and the other was the father of the Sect Leader of the He Sect.
And He Qiang, the Sect Leader of the He Sect, stood by the side, completely unable to interject.
Such a luxurious lineup elicited much admiration!
Especially since Gu Yu didn’t dismount while talking to the two.
He spoke while riding his horse, which was truly arrogant!
But even though everyone thought Gu Yu was arrogant, Tang Haocang and He Li didn’t seem to care, maintaining their smiling demeanor.
Others might not know why Gu Yu didn’t dismount, but the two of them knew the reason clearly.
Once Gu Yu dismounted, it would likely be dark by the time he got back on his horse.
Therefore, Gu Yu was determined not to dismount.
This also indicated his desire to leave quickly, causing Tang Haocang and He Li to feel a pang of regret, but they didn’t delay him any further.
After all, there would be a next time they met.
“Little Brother Gu, we know you want to go home as soon as possible, so we won’t say much more. But since you’ve come all this way… please don’t refuse the gifts we’ve prepared!”
“Haha, thank you both for your understanding. As for the gifts, I won’t be polite and will accept them.”
Hearing that they were willing to let him leave, Gu Yu was naturally overjoyed.
Then, Gu Yu clasped his hands in a fist on his horse, a smile unconsciously appearing on his lips, his eyes conveying his eagerness to leave. Tang Haocang and He Li exchanged knowing smiles, and then they clapped their hands.
As a dozen or so carriages appeared one after another, the smile on Gu Yu’s face gradually froze.
These two old foxes were truly wicked!
With so much stuff, it would take a lot of effort to transport it all.
However, he was fortunate to have his spatial ability.
Thinking of his spatial ability, Gu Yu quickly regained his composure. He didn’t say much more but asked Xi Yang to tie the carriages together with ropes and pull the line of carriages forward.
“Gu Yu, there’s something important I need to tell you before you leave.”
“Oh? May I ask what Sect Leader Tang wishes to say.”
“You’ll know once you read this note.”
