Gu Cheng seemed to have sensed Gu Mei's surprise, so he waved amicably, "This child is very nice and gave us a lot of supplies. It doesn't matter if he tags along. Also, I can tell that these kids are very strong. I will feel more at ease if they tag along."
"I see," Gu Mei nodded, believing Gu Cheng's words.
Qin Yi scoffed in her heart, but the smile on her face became more and more innocent and well-behaved—you're so nice? As if!
She was not stupid.
"Really, thank you so much," Qin Yi said, putting on the look of a well-mannered youth.
After Qin Yi said goodbye to Gu Cheng, she left his home with Gu Mei. On the road, Qin Yi randomly asked, "Aunty Gu, I heard just now that anyone who went into the ancestral hall died in the end. How did that happen?"
Gu Mei's heart jumped—this matter was taboo in the village, and the moment the subject was brought up, Gu Mei's smile became slightly bitter.
