Rebirth: He refused to Divorce Again

Chapter 2006: Chapter 2004: Fate Truly Is a Wondrous Thing

"Yes, Xiuxiu always seeks recognition for her abilities. Now that she finally has the chance, she is naturally happy."

For Qin Yize, he also thought it was good. At least with Chen Lanxiu around, Nie Luan wouldn’t constantly be thinking about pulling his wife into Archive Room No.1.

It’s not that his wife isn’t capable, but with too many responsibilities, his Qiaoqiao would be very tired.

After staying in the Capital City for another three days, Chen Lanxiu returned to Wangbei County Town.

This time, it wasn’t Gu Qiaoqiao who sent her off; it was Nie Luan who suggested it.

Over the past few days, Nie Luan had been taking Xiuxiu around under the guise of familiarizing her with the situation, picking her up early each day from the Qin Family’s Courtyard and only bringing her back after dinner.

Sometimes, fate can be a truly wonderful thing.

For instance, between a man and a woman, there are those who, even after decades together, don’t develop feelings, while others can spark emotions in just a fleeting moment.

It’s often said that attraction happens in an instant; the heart decides the mind, and the mind dictates action!

When Nie Luan took Chen Lanxiu back to Wangbei County Town, there was a subtle affection in their eyes.

Since Nie Luan didn’t let Gu Qiaoqiao send her off, Gu Qiaoqiao didn’t insist, and Chen Lanxiu herself didn’t want to take up too much of Qiaoqiao’s time. So Gu Qiaoqiao watched the car disappear from the gates of the Qin Family’s Courtyard, feeling as if Nie Luan was meeting his girlfriend’s family...

Of course, that feeling was fleeting. Those two were smart, unlike she and Qin Yize back in the day. They knew well the path they would take in the future.

Not only was Nie Luan smart, but even Chen Lanxiu—this little girl—had plenty of wit.

Fortunately, the child’s character was very good. Otherwise, with such wit, if she didn’t have a good character and possessed such unusual abilities, she might become a menace.

Everyone has their own life. Soon enough, Gu Qiaoqiao set this matter aside, as Qin Xiaoyu had not returned home yet and was still at school. Gu Qiaoqiao decided to drive there to see her.

This time she didn’t take Xiao Bao and Xiao Bei since Grandma Qin missed them. So Grandma Qin took them to the old house.

Though these children belong to a wealthy family and should, in theory, have bodyguards with careful travel arrangements, the security in the Imperial Capital was excellent. Plus, with White Wolf and Xiao Bai as super bodyguards, they really didn’t need anyone else.

Thus, Gu Qiaoqiao decided to visit Qin Xiaoyu alone to ask if she didn’t even intend to come back for winter break, and next she planned to have a meal with Chang Qing, who was about to start his vacation.

She hadn’t been in touch with Chang Qing for over half a year. Now that he’s finally leaving the lab, Gu Qiaoqiao was certainly going to meet him afterward.

As for Chang Qing in another time dimension, Gu Qiaoqiao really didn’t know how to handle it. It was like a ticking time bomb, uncertain when it would explode, but for now she was powerless and could only wait quietly.

For the moment, Qin Xiaoyu’s situation was manageable.

Meanwhile, Qin Yize also drove to Second Uncle Qin’s house, having managed to find time to deal with this matter.

With confirmation from Qiaoqiao, Qin Yize went straight to knock on Second Uncle Qin’s door.

Though, for Second Uncle Qin and Second Aunt Qin, they were unworthy of receiving the two amulets from Gu Qiaoqiao. But, after all, those Protective Buddha Amulets were personally given by Gu Qiaoqiao.

Qin Yize wanted to take them back, but he needed a reasonable excuse and reason, since they hadn’t reached the point of turning against each other yet.

Just a few days ago, Gu Qiaoqiao had shared with Qin Yize, when she saw them: "Don’t wear those Protective Buddha Amulets anymore," stating that for some unknown reason, they had a faint black malevolent energy about them, and wearing them much longer would likely cause problems.

To Qin Yize, the issues that might ensue with his second uncle and second aunt were of little concern; they brought it upon themselves. But if they were to blame Gu Qiaoqiao, saying the darkened amulets harmed them, that was intolerable for him.

Gu Qiaoqiao worried that she might have been mistaken, so she went to observe again, invisibly, confirming that indeed there was a problem. The amulets that Gu Qiaoqiao, who embodied the purest life force, had bestowed were attacked by the malevolent energy surrounding Second Uncle and Second Aunt Qin.

If this malevolent energy were external, the amulets would block it. But if the person naturally carried such energy, the amulets could do nothing.

In this clash, inevitably, the problem rested with Second Uncle and Second Aunt Qin.

Gu Qiaoqiao regretted being too soft-hearted at the time and forgetting their behavior, unintentionally causing harm. She planned to invisibly retrieve the amulets.

However, Qin Yize stopped her.

He told Gu Qiaoqiao that he had a way,

but didn’t reveal what method, just advised Gu Qiaoqiao not to worry, saying he would handle it.

Greeted by Second Uncle and Second Aunt Qin, they were utterly amazed, not expecting Qin Yize to visit them. Yet, they were pleased since they were just planning to find him, and unexpectedly, he came to them, a heavenly opportunity indeed.

The couple enthusiastically offered him tea, water, and brought cakes and fruits. Second Aunt Qin picked up a fruit knife to peel an apple for Qin Yize, slicing it into small pieces; yet Qin Yize didn’t touch any, his expression indifferent.

He casually chatted with Second Uncle Qin.

Yet a flash of disdain appeared in his eyes.

He truly didn’t want to acknowledge Second Uncle Qin as his uncle; dealing with a mere stranger would have been much easier.

If he truly causes trouble, even Great Grandfather couldn’t protect him.

Second Aunt Qin finished busily and sat beside Second Uncle Qin. The three faced one another, and Second Aunt Qin signaled Second Uncle, urging him to quickly discuss what they had planned with Qin Yize.

Thus, saving a trip to the Qin Group; meeting the eldest son, Qin Yishan, might bring opposition as Ah Shan deeply resents his uncle’s family.

Today was indeed the best opportunity, not one to be missed.

Second Aunt Qin felt delighted; her brother had long desired a position in the Qin Group. After all, they were family, no matter the circumstances—Eldest Family eating meat should give her side some stew.

Ideally, her brother would become a finance manager, handling Qin Family’s funds, bringing respect in her family and some great benefits. The Qin Group’s assets were incredibly tempting.

She always felt the portion given to their Second Family was still too little.
