Chapter 87 - 87: Conflict
Yunbao washed up briefly and went downstairs. She realized that everyone was sitting there waiting for her, as if something had happened. Their expressions were very serious, especially Old Master Gu. When he saw Yunbao appear, he frowned even more, as if he was troubled about something.
Yunbao subconsciously cowered when she saw Old Master Gil’s gaze. She didn’t like others looking at her like that because in the past, once Wang Wang revealed such an expression, it meant that she was going to be beaten up.
“Hello, Grandpa, Grandma, and Uncles.” Yunbao greeted everyone carefully, even thinking carefully about what she had not done well.
Old Madam Gu saw Yunbao’s restraint and gently patted Old Master Gu to tell him to pay attention to his expression.
Old Master Gu also realized the seriousness of his expression, but he could only sigh. He did not expect the same thing to happen to Yunbao. Old Master Gu was a little powerless. He did not even have the energy he usually had.
“Yunbao, come and sit beside Grandpa.” Old Master Gu waved at Yunbao, indicating for her to sit beside him.
Yunbao did not dare to delay. She jogged over and even hugged Old Master Gu as if she was expressing goodwill.
Old Master Gu looked at Little Yunbao, who was leaning against him. In a daze, he seemed to see Gu Teng, his poor daughter who had passed away early. He could not help but sigh again and reach out to touch Yunbao’s head.
“Sigh.” Old Master Gu sighed. “Yunbao, you have to answer my next question truthfully, understand?” Old Master Gu looked into Yunbao’s eyes and prayed in his heart that she would not be like Little Teng!
“Don’t tell the truth, Yunbao!” Just as Yunbao was about to agree, a voice suddenly appeared. It was Song Yun. “Just play dumb.” Song Yun taught Yunbao how to deal with it.
However, Yunbao was a little stunned. She did not want to lie to her grandfather, but her master naturally had her reasons for doing so. Yunbao was in a dilemma.
Seeing that Yunbao did not answer, Old Master Gu asked directly.
“Yunbao, did you tell Grandpa that you have a secret friend? Other than you, no one else knows of her existence?” Old Master Gu asked because Gu Teng had told him when he was young that she had a friend that no one else knew about.
Moreover, Gu Teng liked to talk to herself like Yunbao. To put it bluntly, she was a little mysterious. Yunbao was also very similar to Gu Teng back then.
“Uh… Yunbao thought to herself that her master was her master and should not be considered a friend, so her denial could not be considered a lie to Old Master Gu. Thinking of this, Yunbao shook her head.
“Really?” Old Master Gu continued to ask.
“No, Yunbao only has two friends. One is Little Tiger, and the other is Brother Rong Xuan.” Old Master Gu looked at Yunbao’s sincere gaze and believed that she was not lying. He asked again right on the heels of that.
“Then does Yunbao know how she flew yesterday?” Old Master Gu asked. After all, everyone present had seen Yunbao fly yesterday.
“Say you don’t know!” Song Yun instructed anxiously.
“Yunbao doesn’t know either. I just thought that I can’t let my family be hurt. Thinking about it made me fly.” Yunbao played dumb, but what she said made everyone speechless.
Old Master Gu stared at Yunbao. After a while, he sighed and touched Yunbao’s head. “Sigh, forget it, Yunbao. If you feel uncomfortable, you have to tell us immediately, okay?”
Yunbao nodded. For some reason, she felt that Old Master Gu was very tired today.
“Grandpa, don’t worry. Yunbao will definitely take good care of her body! Yunbao raised her hand and waved it to show that she was very healthy.
“Yes, Grandpa believes you.” Old Master Gu continued to look at Yunbao. “By the way, Yunbao, can you promise Grandpa that you won’t do anything that makes you want to fly in front of anyone other than your family in the future?
“Why?” Yunbao didn’t understand. If someone was in danger, couldn’t she
“There’s no reason. No means no!” Old Master Gu l s sudden anger frightened Yunbao. In her impression, Old Master Gu was a dignified old man, but she had never seen him so angry.
Yunbao was also stunned on the spot for a moment. Tears welled up in her eyes. She did not understand what she had done wrong.
The atmosphere became anxious.
“Dad, don’t be angry. It’s not good for your health if you’re angry.” Gu Peng came out to mediate and even used his eyes to hint at the others to say something.
However, before anyone could speak, Yunbao spoke first..
