Chapter 1024: Chapter 1024: Similarities in People (9)
"Dad, do you know something?" An Zisheng squinted his fox-like eyes and looked at his father.
Old Master An paused with his hand on the chess piece and glanced at everyone.
"Indeed, there has been an incident. Just now, when Niuniu returned, I was in the backyard and overheard a bit of conversation between her and that girl Xiao Feng. The Thirteen Blood Generals and the Blood Guards are about to enter a phase of intensive training, even Niuniu herself has to put down her work to focus on closed-door cultivation. Although I didn’t hear everything clearly, I could roughly guess that the Medicine Sect has encountered a powerful enemy, which could threaten the lives of many people."
As soon as Old Master An finished speaking, Kong Shi cried out in shock.
"What?! Niuniu is going into closed-door cultivation too? What exactly happened? Will she be in danger?" A mother’s first concern is always the safety of her child.
An Zisheng quickly patted Kong Shi’s hand and reassured her softly, "Don’t worry, Niuniu is a very determined child, let’s wait for her to tell us herself."
At this moment, outside the An Family Villa, Gu Yelin was holding An Yiqing’s hand and walking slowly along a shaded path in the courtyard.
"Ah Lin, what did you forget? Isn’t the car parked in the parking lot?"
Gu Yelin looked tenderly at the silly An Yiqing and gently stroked her smooth long hair.
"Tutu, you’re troubled."
An Yiqing was stunned, quickly realizing why Gu Yelin had brought her out.
She had always been transparent with this man.
An Yiqing told Gu Yelin everything that happened today. Gu Yelin had not said a word, and even when he heard the names "Yu Hai" and "Poison Medicine Sect," his gaze did not flicker. ƒrēenovelkiss.com
"...That’s the situation. Now I’m really torn about whether or not to tell Grandpa and the rest. They’re already old, and I don’t want to burden them with too much worry. But if I don’t warn them, I’m afraid that Yu Hai might find an opportunity to exploit."
An Yiqing frowned in conflict, bumping her little head against Gu Yelin’s chest a few times.
Gu Yelin’s lips curled up in amusement at her gesture and let out a light laugh. He placed his hand on her head, drawing her into his embrace.
"You always become utterly distraught when it comes to matters involving family. Tutu, your grandfather is one of the only two remaining old commanders of Xuanjin; decades ago, he fought on the battlefield and intimidated enemies far and wide. He’s not as frail as you imagine."
An Yiqing paused, her body still as she listened quietly to Gu Yelin continue.
"Although the old man is advanced in age, he is now a martial cultivator in the Innate Realm. His physical condition is better than that of ordinary young people. Think about my grandfather, and you will know how strong your grandfather must be. As a doctor, you should look at the problem objectively."
An Yiqing remained silent, mulling over Gu Yelin’s words in her mind.
Indeed, every time it came to family issues, she herself would lose all composure. With the current strength and physical condition of the An Family, even Old Lady An and Kong Shi were better off than most young people. What was she really worried about? Was she worried that they couldn’t handle such a crisis? Or that they couldn’t endure intensive training?
No, An Yiqing knew that these things were unlikely to happen. Her family had always been unbreakable.
As a red-blooded family, the An Family couldn’t possibly be weak!
The knot in her heart gradually untangled, and An Yiqing found herself amused as she realized all the issues she had dwelled on were due to her overprotectiveness and excessive worry.
She was afraid of her family getting hurt, also afraid they would suffer. But she had forgotten that the real way to protect oneself is to become stronger.
Similarly, to protect themselves, the An Family also needed to grow stronger!
Having resolved her concerns, An Yiqing felt relieved. She reached out to embrace Gu Yelin’s sturdy waist, leaning her entire weight on him.
"Mm, Ah Lin, I understand now. By the way, I want to inform Grandpa Gu as soon as possible. Yu Hai is vicious and insane. Although the Gu Family is powerful, it’s still best to be cautious."
Gu Yelin nodded lightly and planted a gentle kiss on her hair.
"Alright."
The two soon returned to the mansion where the anxious An Family members were sitting in the living room, not having left.
"Grandpa, there’s something I want to tell everyone."
Old Master An’s eyes sparkled as he slowly set down the chess piece. The other An Family members also sat up straight, with serious expressions, as if facing a great enemy.
Looking at her family members’ solemn faces, An Yiqing couldn’t help but laugh.
"There’s no need to be so serious. While the situation is severe, it’s not yet a matter of life and death."
After that, An Yiqing repeated everything she had just told Gu Yelin to the An Family. After she finished explaining the whole incident, the first reaction of the An Family was—
"Oh no, my dear Niuniu, are you hurt anywhere? Grandma was so scared!"
