Rebirth: He refused to Divorce Again-Chapter 123 - : Although there are no flowers blooming by the roadside, you can still return slowly.

Chapter 123 -123: Although there are no flowers blooming by the roadside, you can still return slowly.

“I can pick them up and bring them back, but if you don’t come, I’m planning to return the apartment they assigned to us. Then, I won’t have any place to put all these stones…”

Qin Yize’s tone seemed somewhat embarrassed.

“I’ll go, I’ll go, don’t return the apartment,” blurted out Gu Qiaoqiao.

“Alright, I’ll wait for you,” Qin Yize’s voice carried a hint of a smile, “Call me before you come, and I’ll pick you up from the station.”

“Okay, I will,” Gu Qiaoqiao nodded her head but couldn’t help adding worriedly, “but you must remember to pick up all those stones, okay?”

“Sure.”

...

“Er, thanks for that then.”

“Don’t mention it.” Qin Yize seemed to smile faintly, “That’s settled then. You hang up.”

After expressing a joyful acknowledgement, Gu Qiaoqiao happily put down the phone.

Meanwhile, Qin Yize slowly hung up the phone,

standing before the office window, his figure as majestic and elegant as distant green mountains, the mildly cold sunlight vaguely enveloped him. From the outside, his starry eyes reflected the splendid day, enhancing his handsome features with a hidden glow.

He looked down at an amber-colored jade stone as large as a fist placed on the windowsill, somewhat pitted on the surface.

Then, his gaze lifted to the distant mountains full of green pine and the continuously surging river.

His thin lips parted slightly, whispering softly, “Gu Qiaoqiao, although there are no flowers on this path, you can still return slowly…”

Birds flying long outside might forget where their home is.

…

At that moment, Gu Qiaoqiao, having just suppressed her excitement, erupted with joy in the solitude of the Gu family house on this warm afternoon.

She even joyfully spread her arms and twirled on the spot.

Then, dizzy from the spinning, she collapsed onto the large kang bed.

She couldn’t help but smile, and after a few moments, started giggling.

What a fool she was!

How could she have forgotten such important information?

In her previous life, in September, these kinds of stones were accidentally discovered by a gold mining exploration team.

There weren’t many, only about several dozen pieces.

Near the place where those stones were found, it was said that about twenty more were discovered in a shallow area about ten meters away.

After thorough exploration upstream and downstream, the explorers never found such stones again.

There were only about thirty in total, and after researching the origin of the stones, they finally confirmed that there were no jade mines here; they must have been flushed up by the Great River during flood season.

The jade was not of superior quality; even the quality of the jade was poor.

Its superior aspect was that inside the jade were gold nuggets.

Yes!

There were gold nuggets inside the jade.

It was a naturally occurring gold-embedded jade, extremely rare in the world.

Later, some speculated that it had to do with the geographic features of the area because a gold mine was not far from here, and no one knows how many thousands of years the river had been flowing.

And that river was very deep.

Thus, the unique gold jade formed.

There were also many attractive, translucent pebbles of various colors on the riverbed and banks that could be admired.

In her last life, Gu Qiaoqiao picked up many beautiful stones for leisure; she was mocked by several women for being naive and provincial.

But although those small stones couldn’t be carved, they could be used in fish tanks or as decorative items.

Just like the Rain Flower pebbles from Jinling City.

Later, in a small shop in the Imperial Capital, she saw the same kind of small stones and recognized them instantly, priced at fifty yuan each.

But that gold jade was truly not meant for her.

Because Qin Yize hadn’t personally gone to catch the Kaijiang Fish at that time, the stones on the bank just lay quietly on the beach.

Until they were discovered by members of a gold mining team.

Gu Qiaoqiao thought that if it weren’t for her carvings, Qin Yize might not have noticed those stones.

However, no matter why Qin Yize discovered that stone, Gu Qiaoqiao felt he played a significant role.

She was going to the Northern Border experimental base.

Not only was she going, but also she needed to go as soon as possible!

And with those people like Choo Lan and Zhu Xiaohong there, she might as well meet them since she had a reason this lifetime.

Perhaps it was destiny.

Otherwise, why would Qin Yize call today?

Gu Qiaoqiao slowly sat up, looking at the half-carved Wolf’s Fang in her palm, and thought, she might as well keep using it for her carving.

Plus, with that drop of blood, the Divine Eagle seemed to exude a dominant and imposing aura.

If she started carving from scratch, it would take quite some time.

Because she was somewhat impatient to go to Border City.

Gu Qiaoqiao jumped down from the bed and took the Wolf’s Fang to the study.

Sitting on the chair, Gu Qiaoqiao suddenly felt like a little puppy, and Qin Yize, holding a succulent bone, effortlessly lured her to Border City.

Gu Qiaoqiao then laughed at herself, thinking, why bother with it…

After taking several deep breaths to calm her excited mood, Gu Qiaoqiao finally began carving with full concentration.

When she came back in the evening, Gu Qiaoqiao said she would go to Border City to Qin Yize in a week.

Gu Tianfeng and Lian Yuhong were absolutely reluctant.

But what could they do about it?

After all, their daughter was married.

Now that they had such an opportunity, reuniting as a couple was most important.

Thus, Lian Yuhong started preparing transportable pickles and meat sauces for her daughter, while Gu Tianfeng discussed the plot of his book with her.

No matter the outcome, they couldn’t just sit idly by; they still needed to write.

During this week, Gu Qiaoqiao was actually quite busy.

If it weren’t for the Gold Jade Stone, Gu Qiaoqiao wouldn’t have considered going back to Qin Yize.

Thus, she wasn’t prepared at all.

But with her parents at home, she wasn’t too busy.

Gu Tianfeng helped mail the wolf skin for Grandma Qin.

Lian Yuhong prepared light luggage for her daughter.

Gu Qiaoqiao declined her mother’s suggestion to mail a quilt, thinking everything should be available at the staff quarters.

A lot of items had been mailed ahead by Grandma Qin, and even Gu Qiaoqiao didn’t know what they included.

But they were definitely well prepared.

Gu Qiaoqiao also packed the Mysterious Dragon Box, just in case there was Red Spirit Jade Marrow among that heap of Gold Jade Stone; it was better to be safe than sorry.

She packed the carved Wolf’s Fang and the osmanthus nucleus carving into her bag because Qin Yize wanted to see the work.

Then she didn’t take other items, leaving them for Lian Yuhong to properly store.

She would take them with her when she returned to the Imperial Capital.

She took a few uncarved olive pits and walnuts; there might be a need for such personal gifts, and they weren’t available in the border area.

And she certainly couldn’t forget her carving knives.

Gu Qiaoqiao gave Gu Tianfeng one of the carved root pen holders, and kept the other two at home for later.

Then she went to her grandmother’s greenhouse. Her uncle was quite a character; if he didn’t do something, he didn’t do it at all, but when he did, he went big.
