The Rebirth of the Fierce Little Cute Girl

Chapter 525: Chapter 524: Confiding

After sending Jinming and Wei Zixiao home, Gu Tingyu also took Yiyi back home.

"I didn’t expect Jinming to choose to go to the West. I hope everything goes well for him once he’s there."

Hearing this from Yiyi, Gu Tingyu nodded and said, "Yeah, I hope everything goes well for him, and that he quickly moves on from this emotional shadow. I’ll go to his house early tomorrow morning to make sure he doesn’t oversleep from a hangover and miss the time."

As they talked, they arrived at the Ding Family home.

"Yiyi, you should go in. After I see Jinming off tomorrow, I’ll come find you."

"Okay."

Yiyi nodded obediently.

Seeing the obedient look of the young girl, Gu Tingyu pulled her into his arms.

"Yiyi, it’s my fault for putting you in such danger." When he realized Yiyi and Ye Jia Ren were missing, he was really scared and felt deeply guilty that Yiyi had disappeared right under his nose.

Feeling Gu Tingyu’s slight tremble, Yiyi quickly hugged him back.

"You can’t blame yourself. I should have been more vigilant, and besides, I’m fine now."

Gu Tingyu held her tightly, and as he felt the warmth in his arms, his mood gradually calmed down. He said firmly in her ear, "From now on... this will never happen again."

"Okay."

Yiyi softly responded, holding Gu Tingyu even tighter. She knew he was scared, so she quickly reassured him, "You don’t need to worry. Nothing will happen to me in the future. This time I got that jade ring. The Divine Medicine Sect didn’t lie; it’s a treasure. With it, I won’t be in danger again." She also wanted to use this opportunity to be frank with Gu Tingyu.

Hearing Yiyi’s words, Gu Tingyu was a bit curious.

"Is that ring really that powerful, able to help you avoid danger?"

Yiyi nodded and said, "Yes, when I’m truly in a life-and-death situation, I can use that ring to get through it." She would hide in the space, hence surviving the crisis, "Actually, inside that ring is..."

But before Yiyi could finish her sentence, Gu Tingyu interrupted her.

"As long as that ring can protect you, that’s all that matters. As for what it can do, you know it yourself. Even if it was once a treasure of the Divine Medicine Sect, now that it’s yours, it’s yours." From the Divine Medicine Sect’s attitude, he knew the jade ring wasn’t simple. Even if it belonged to them before, now that it can protect Yiyi, it should belong to her.

He interrupted her because he didn’t want her to reveal the ring’s secrets. If it’s something confidential to the Divine Medicine Sect and she accidentally shares it, who knows if it would put her in danger. So, he didn’t want Yiyi to take risks, "The matter of the jade ring, the Divine Medicine Sect will definitely continue communicating with you, so it’s best if you don’t tell me for now."

Hearing this, Yiyi couldn’t help but tiptoe to kiss Gu Tingyu’s chin, then nuzzled her head against his chest.

Knowing that Gu Tingyu considered so much and always put her first made her heart swell with warmth, she softly said, "I knew you wouldn’t spread it, so I thought I’d tell you to reassure you. Besides, since this jade ring is with me now, how I use it is my decision; you don’t need to worry about the Divine Medicine Sect."

Gu Tingyu still had some concerns, but Yiyi suddenly leaned closer and whispered in his ear, her warm breath making him freeze instantly, unable to reply.

"Tingyu, did you hear me?"

After Yiyi finished speaking, she noticed Gu Tingyu seemed distracted and couldn’t help but wave her hand in front of his eyes.

Seeing this, Gu Tingyu came back to his senses, quickly nodding, "I heard you, but you must never mention this to others, or I’ll truly be afraid for your safety."

What the little girl had just told him was too unbelievable. If others knew, it might provoke them to kill for the treasure, which made him really worried.

"The Divine Medicine Sect surely knows about the jade ring. What if they have malicious intentions?"

Regarding this, Yiyi was still reassured.

"From what Elder Qiu said, this jade ring seems to only be openable by the Holy Daughter; it’s useless to anyone else who gets it."

Gu Tingyu naturally remembered what Elder Qiu said that day, but he was still worried.

Seeing Gu Tingyu like this, Yiyi couldn’t help but laugh and say, "Alright, you don’t need to worry. The matter of the jade ring is probably top secret within the Divine Medicine Sect; not many people should know about it."

Gu Tingyu nodded, but in his heart, he decided he must protect Yiyi even more and never let his guard down regarding the Divine Medicine Sect.

After sending Yiyi inside, Gu Tingyu went back home.

When Yiyi got up the next day, she found her mother busy in the kitchen and couldn’t help but ask, "Mom, aren’t you going to the boutique today?"

Ding Yuejun saw her daughter coming in and smiled, "I invited A Quan for dinner today, so I won’t be going to the boutique." At the end, she turned to Yiyi and asked, "When is Tingyu coming over today?"

"He’ll come after sending off his friend."

Today, Jinming was leaving Shangjing, and Gu Tingyu and Wei Zixiao went to see him off. The three of them were close like brothers, with plenty to say to each other, so she didn’t go over in the morning.

Hearing her daughter’s words, Ding Yuejun smiled, "He should get here in time for lunch, and we can have a good meal together."

As mother and daughter talked, Huang Yanquan arrived.

Seeing Huang Yanquan, Ding Yuejun was a bit surprised, "Why did you come so early?"

Huang Yanquan smiled at her and said, "I had nothing else to do, so I came earlier."

Yiyi naturally didn’t miss the way Huang Yanquan looked at her mother. That look gave her goosebumps, "Mom, I’ll go have breakfast first."

Ding Yuejun snapped back to reality and quickly said, "Then go eat quickly; I’ve already prepared it for you." Then she turned to Huang Yanquan and asked, "A Quan, have you had breakfast?"

Huang Yanquan shook his head, "Not yet."

"Then go eat something. I’ll serve you a bowl of porridge; there are side dishes and pastries in the dining room."

"Alright."

Huang Yanquan didn’t refuse and, after sitting down, pulled Ding Yuejun to sit with him.

"I’ve already eaten."

Ding Yuejun waved her hands, smiling as she encouraged Huang Yanquan to eat more.

Just then, Fu Yun returned from his morning exercise, and Ding Yuejun quickly invited him to join for breakfast. Fu Yun then looked at Yiyi and said, "Holy Daughter, I’d like to discuss some matters concerning the Divine Medicine Sect with you later."

Yiyi didn’t refuse and nodded, "Okay."
