Chapter 1176: Chapter 1176: Ancestor Only Went to Deliver a Gift

Xi Rubao stared blankly, suddenly feeling a sharp pain in her knees. Both her knees seemed uncontrollably like broken arms, causing her to fall to the floor.

She had never felt so clearly, the sensation of life slipping away bit by bit.

It was like watching Zuzi leave her, heading in the direction of Bao Gucheng.

At this moment, she too could genuinely experience the countdown of life inside her.

"Bao Er, what’s wrong?" Gu Qiusha came to help her, "Don’t be afraid, Grandpa passed away peacefully, without suffering, and went to a better world in his dream. We must respect his last wishes..."

She held back her sorrow, trying to comfort her daughter, thinking that Xi Rubao was scared by the old man’s passing.

Xi Rubao slowly shook her head, hesitant to speak.

After a long while, she finally burst into tears, "I know. Mommy, I just remembered, at the wedding today, we were so busy that we forgot the bouquet toss, and my sister didn’t catch the bouquet, boohoo!"

If her life was destined to come to an end, she hoped it would exchange for a hundred years of happiness for her sister and brother-in-law.

But tonight, she unbelievably forgot such an important event as tossing the bouquet.

Gu Qiusha: "..."

Reminded by Xi Rubao’s interjection, she suddenly looked towards the upstairs, "Where is Zuzi? Let her come to see Grandpa one last time; he loved her the most."

Xi Rubao bit her lip, knowing she couldn’t hide it: "Sister... she went to find Mr. Bo..."

"In the middle of the night to find Bao Gucheng?" Gu Qiusha frowned, and the image drawn for Nangong Mo suddenly flashed in her mind, "Wait, there’s something that I think Zuzi needs to know, Bao Er, quickly call your sister!"

"Mommy, I don’t want to burden my sister..." Xi Rubao shook her head vigorously.

She shrank back her limp arms, wrapped in a blanket, trying hard to cover the broken arms and gradually cracking knee bones.

Not wanting to become a stumbling block for Zuzi to find Bao Gucheng.

Gu Qiusha completely didn’t understand what she meant; their thoughts were on completely different channels: "It’s not about you, Bao Er. What I want to tell Zuzi is about Bao Gucheng and Fourth Master; she surely doesn’t know how similar Mr. Bo and Fourth Master are!"

Xi Rubao looked puzzled: "How are they similar?"

Gu Qiusha: "Their bone structure and spirit are alike!"

"Mom, I know you’ve been through a lot tonight; could you... clear your head a little? Uncle, can you take care of Mommy and let her rest first? I’ll stay up tonight for Grandpa!"

"You child, why can’t I make you understand? Don’t you find it very strange? Mr. Bo is missing tonight, yet Fourth Master returns to the wedding, all fine. They don’t get along but are so alike..."

Xi Rubao: "Mommy, what exactly are you trying to say?"

Gu Yuzhi: "Xiao Sha, do you mean...?"

Gu Qiusha pursed her lips and solemnly said: "Mr. Bo and Fourth Master, they must be long-lost brothers! Either the Bao Family lost a child, or the Nangong Family did. Now they are like fire and water, not seeing eye to eye, definitely being provoked by someone to gain the biggest benefit. Perhaps they were raised separately by the Bao Family and the Nangong Family with ulterior motives..."

Xi Rubao: "..." Mommy, wake up, have you been reading too many comic books! 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

Gu Yuzhi: "..." Sha Sha, life isn’t that dramatic, okay?

In the middle of the night.

Qingcheng’s sky was covered with dense clouds over ten miles, pouring rain flooding the entire mountain range.

The little crow flapped its wings with effort, not yet flying close to Qingcheng Mountain, it already faintly felt the strong airflow pressure from the thunderstorm.

"Ancestor, it’s too dangerous, I don’t know which Immortal Monarch is transcending the tribulation; the thunder is hitting fiercely, let’s not get accidentally injured!"

"Ancestor, Bao Gucheng is a mere mortal, it’s not worth risking yourself."

"Ancestor, the little boy’s life won’t last long, you promised not to defy fate!"

The three little ones advised one after another.

Zuzi remained silently indifferent until Qingcheng Mountain faintly appeared in the distant night sky. She then slightly opened her lips:

"I’m just going to give him a farewell gift."
