Chapter 296 Engagement?
Seeing Yang Guo's expression, Gu Qianbei smiled and said, "Alright, if Master goes out this time, I'll take you with me."
"Really? That's great!"
Yang Guo originally thought that Gu Qianbei would still refuse, but when he saw that Gu Qianbei agreed, he was overjoyed.
I never expected happiness to come so suddenly.
"But you'll have to find me a manager; this Qianchousi Market can't be left to waste."
Gu Qianbei said.
"Master, don't worry! There's absolutely no problem! In the past year or so, I've been doing very well in Xiangyang City and have made a lot of friends!"
"Having them come over and help me watch the shop will definitely be fine!"
With Yang Guo's current abilities, he can easily solve these minor problems.
That night, Yang Guo and Gu Qianbei chatted all night long. Gu Qianbei told many interesting stories about the martial arts world, which made Yang Guo yearn for it even more.
Yang Guo finally fell into a deep sleep when he was so tired that he could not stay awake any longer.
"This child..."
Gu Qianbei smiled and shook his head, covered Yang Guo with the blanket, and quietly left.
The next morning, when Yang Guo woke up and found Gu Qianbei missing, his heart sank. He was afraid that last night was just a dream, and even more afraid that Gu Qianbei had left again.
He immediately stood up and called out, "Master! Master!"
Even faster than the response was the aroma of the food that reached my nose.
That's the taste of my master.
"Awake? You look energetic. Looks like you slept well last night."
Go wash up and have some dinner.
Gu Qianbei carried breakfast to the table and said with a smile.
"Yes, Master!"
Yang Guo was overjoyed to see that Gu Qianbei was still there and quickly responded.
Soon, the master and apprentice sat down at the table and began to eat breakfast.
"Yang Guo! Yang Guo!"
At this moment, Guo Fu started running.
Dressed in red, she was quite eye-catching.
The little girl has grown up quite a bit and bears a resemblance to Huang Rong.
"Master Gu! When did you get back?"
Guo Fu was both surprised and delighted to see Gu Qianbei, and quickly went up to ask her what was wrong.
"I just got back last night. Miss Guo, have you had breakfast? Why don't you sit down and have some with me?"
"Okay, okay."
Guo Fu immediately sat down at the table, but Yang Guo said somewhat displeased, "This was made for me by my master, so eat less."
"Yang Guo! How can you be so stingy! I even brought you some pastries my mother made before!"
Guo Fu said angrily.
"How can that be the same? You can eat your mother's pastries every day, but I only get to eat my master's breakfast once in a lifetime."
Yang Guo argued his case based on reason.
"You're just making excuses! Look at him, Master Gu!"
Unable to win the argument with Yang Guo, Guo Fu turned to Gu Qianbei.
Gu Qianbei smiled and said, "Alright, stop arguing. I made a lot, enough for you two little gluttons."
"Look, even your master agreed. Don't be stingy. You can't finish it all anyway."
Guo Furong said smugly.
"Who says I can't finish it? I can definitely finish it!"
Yang Guo said angrily.
Seeing that the two were about to start fighting again, Gu Qianbei helplessly pressed down on their heads.
"I mean, have you two been arguing like this for over a year now?"
"Of course not. Most of the time, I give in to her."
Yang Guo said earnestly.
"I take good care of him too! My parents often ask me to bring him nice things."
Gu Qianbei shook her head slightly.
These two are truly sworn enemies.
"Alright, stop fooling around and eat quickly. After we finish eating, Guo'er and I will go pay a visit to Master Guo and Chief Huang."
"Yes, Master."
Yang Guo responded immediately, and Guo Fu nodded obediently, saying no more.
Guo Mansion.
"Hahaha! Young Master Gu! You're finally back! Guo'er has been thinking about you, his master, all the time."
When Guo Jing saw Gu Qianbei, he immediately smiled and went up to greet him.
Huang Rong added, "Young Master Gu has done a lot these days. Brother Jing and I have heard all sorts of news about you."
I heard that you recently defeated Ximen Chuixue.
That was the most outstanding swordsman below the heavens and man.
"I never expected Young Master Gu's cultivation speed to be so fast. It's probably only a matter of time before he reaches the Celestial Realm."
"Master Huang, you flatter me. It was just a bit of luck."
The main reason I came back this time was to see Yang Guo.
After all, I had promised him that I would come back to see him, and this trip has taken up a lot of time.
Fortunately, Yang Guo worked hard enough, which surprised and delighted me.
In truth, this was all thanks to the guidance and support of Master Guo and Chief Huang.
Otherwise, I don't think he would have achieved what he has today.
When Yang Guo was mentioned, Guo Jing's face was full of smiles.
"Guo'er is indeed exceptionally intelligent. Whether it's martial arts or reading, he grasps things very quickly."
Given time, he will surely achieve great things.
Speaking of which, there's something else I've always wanted to discuss with Young Master Gu.
Taking this opportunity, I'll explain what happened.
Huang Rong seemed to realize something, grabbed Guo Jing and said, "Brother Jing, you're not going to talk about that matter, are you?"
"This is too early; Guo'er and Fu'er are still too young."
"I'm not asking them to get married right away, I'm just setting up a marriage agreement."
"We are both protecting our country, and we could sacrifice our lives for it at any time. The sooner we settle down, the sooner we can have peace of mind."
"this……"
Hearing Guo Jing say this, Huang Rong fell silent for a moment.
This logic seems reasonable.
"What wedding? Uncle Guo, Aunt Guo, what are you talking about?"
Yang Guo asked in confusion.
"That's right, Guo'er. As you know, our Guo and Yang families have a three-generation friendship."
Your grandfather Yang Tiexin and my father Guo Xiaotian were sworn brothers, as were your father and me.
Therefore, I want to continue this connection.
You and Fu'er are a man and a woman, so you can get married.
I see that you are intelligent and a reliable man.
Although Fu'er is a bit unruly, she won't get the better of you. You can also help Uncle Guo discipline her.
After Guo Jing finished speaking, both Yang Guo and Guo Fu were startled.
"What?"
The two gasped simultaneously, then looked at each other.
They were too young to have considered such things.
Now that Guo Jing has said it directly, both of them feel strange emotions.
Yang Guo is a succubus, and Guo Fu is a young lady who perfectly inherited Huang Rong's beauty; the two are attractive to each other.
But they were still just teenagers, their feelings were only naive and innocent; they couldn't possibly think that far ahead.
"Master Guo, your suggestion is good, but as Chief Huang said, it's a bit premature."
An early engagement might not be a good thing for either of them.
At this moment, Gu Qianbei suddenly spoke up.
"Young Master Gu, you disagree?"
Guo Jing was both surprised and puzzled.
Huang Rong breathed a sigh of relief.
She had never really approved of Yang Guo and Guo Fu's marriage.
It wasn't that she looked down on Yang Guo, but she felt that if her daughter were with Yang Guo, she would be completely controlled by him.
Just like how she manipulated Guo Jing.
Guo Jing possessed extraordinary martial arts skills and had his own ambitions; he was an exceptional man.
But apart from her beautiful appearance, Guo Fu has no ambition and no good martial arts skills. If she is completely controlled by her husband, who knows how she will live her life in the future.
Most importantly, the future Yang Guo is definitely not someone she and Guo Jing can control.
Even if I wanted to support Guo Fu, I probably wouldn't be able to.
