Jinx-Mouthed Young Master

All these years, Han Li had been using these things to lie to herself. Her daughter was still by her side. If it was not for the support of such beliefs, Han Li would have fallen long ago.

Because of Zhizhi, every household in Peppermint Alley received gifts from the Gu family to thank them for taking care of her.

Although the various people in Peppermint Alley were engaged in various professions and lived completely different lives, they had a rare common point -- They were good to Qin Zhi.

Qin Zhi had lived here with her sister for a few years. Because her sister was often not at home, she had grown up eating the meals of poor families.

Although the food was not that good, and the people were not easy to get along with, she still managed to survive. Perhaps the angelic Qin Zhi was the last ray of light in everyone's heart.

Now that Qin Zhi was leaving Peppermint Alley, everyone hoped that her future would be bright. It was as if Qin Zhi's happiness would also mean that their future would be limitless.

Along the way, Han Li held Qin Zhi in his arms and did not leave her for a moment. She was still worried that this was a new dream. Maybe in the blink of an eye or a cough, she would wake up from this dream and her daughter would be gone again.

Qin Zhi did not know what Han Li was thinking. She obediently leaned into her mother's arms. It was warm and fragrant, and she felt a little drowsy. Han Li saw this and leaned his daughter's head on her chest. She gently patted her back and muttered, "Zhizhi, go to sleep. Mommy's here."

Gu An could not help but feel sad.

All these years, when his wife had been seriously ill, she had held the pillow in her arms as if it was her daughter. Now, her real daughter was finally in her arms. Her illness should be cured.

"Mommy." Qin Zhi, who was in his arms, suddenly called out in a low voice.

"Yes, Mommy's here," Han Li's spirit was lifted and he quickly said.

Qin Zhi reached out and hugged Han Li's arm. She muttered, "Mommy."

Only then did Han Li realize that his daughter had fallen asleep.

"Darling, our daughter! Our daughter!" she exclaimed in delight.

Gu An's eyes turned red. He smiled and touched Han Li's head. He put his index finger on his lips and made a 'shush' gesture.

Qin Zhi did not sleep well. As soon as the car stopped, she opened her eyes and looked around nervously. When she saw Gu An and Han Li, her shoulders dropped unnoticeably.

Gu An saw this and did not say a word. He would definitely make it up to his daughter double what he owed her!

The Old Master of the Gu family, Gu Sen, was already waiting in the living room. He clenched his walking stick and was extremely nervous. He asked the Butler, Uncle Jiang, who was standing beside him, "Ah Jiang, why aren't they here yet? Didn't they say that they're coming back?"

Uncle Jiang smiled. "Old Master, don't be anxious. Wait a little longer."

A 12 or 13-year-old teenager beside him reached out and grabbed an apple from the coffee table. He tossed it in his hand and said casually, "Grandpa, if you ask every three minutes, Uncle Xiaojiang must have been sneezing all the way back! That's not safe!"

The old man was stunned for a moment before he understood what his grandson meant. He picked up his walking stick and was about to beat him up as he cursed, "Gu Yu, you little brat, I'll let you jinx it! Can't you just hope for the best?"

Gu Yu nimbly dodged his grandfather's walking stick and reached out to support his grandfather. After making sure that he would not fall, he grinned and said, "It's true, how can you nag like this?"

Old Master Gu Sen was about to scold his grandson again when a maid ran in from outside. "They're back! They're back! Old master! They're back!"

Gu Sen no longer cared about beating and scolding his grandson. He quickly walked out with his walking stick.

Gu Yu helped his grandfather up and said impatiently, "Grandpa! What's the hurry? Since they're already back, why don't you just sit here and wait? Don't you know what kind of body you're in? If you get agitated and your blood pressure rises, can you stand it? Sit properly! Otherwise, Dad will whip me later!"

"Old Master, listen to the Young Master, don't get too worked up!" Uncle Jiang quickly said. "Don't get too excited!"

After being reminded by the two, Gu Sen quickly calmed down and sat down on the sofa.

Gu Yu said, "That's right, don't get excited! Even if it's another failed attempt, you're not allowed to be sad! I'll get my sister back for you sooner or later, Grandpa! Promise me!"

Gu Sen quickly nodded and pushed his grandson to the side. "Go away! Go away! You're not allowed to jinx me! Your dad said that he's right this time! It's definitely correct!"

Gu Yu stood aside disapprovingly. There had been a lot of failed attempts in finding his sister in the past few years. He was already numb.
