180 Chapter 180 Living Up To Expectations

Gu Chengrui nodded and smiled. “That’s right. I just got it done less than 20 minutes ago.”

“Let’s go out and celebrate then.” Zhou Ying exclaimed as she pulled him out of her interspace.

Gu Chengrui saw the dishes on the table and said happily, “I guess we are really celebrating. You’ve made some chicken stew for me.”

“Of course. Let’s hurry up and eat, and we’ll head to your eldest uncle’s house. His daughter is leaving tomorrow, so we have to go there by today.”

“Shouldn’t we prepare some gifts?”

“Yeah, we do. Isn’t there some ginseng slice in the interspace someone collected before? Let’s bring them a small jar of ginseng slices, some blood-replenishing medicine you made, and two bottles of skin cream. That should be enough, right?”

“Of course. She’s the wife of a mayor and wouldn’t lack anything else.” Gu Chengrui nodded his head in agreement. He passed her a drumstick, and the couple started eating.

After the meal, the two took the antidote and the gifts they had prepared, locked up, and rushed to the patriarch’s house.

When she arrived, the family had just finished dinner and was idly chatting.



In Mrs. Wang’s arms was an unfamiliar little girl of about seven years old. If Zhou Ying wasn’t mistaken, she was Gu Ziyi’s eldest daughter.

A young woman was also at the side, holding a little boy in her arms. It was Gu Chengen’s wife and son, Mrs. Fang and Barney.

When the patriarch saw them, he stood up and greeted them warmly. “Oh, you guys are here! Have you two eaten?”

“We have. We came over after having dinner.” Gu Chengrui spoke as he set the items in his hands on the table.

“Let’s sit down and talk.” The patriarch invited them to sit.

“Chengrui, have you made the antidote?” Mrs. Wang looked at Gu Chengrui.

“Mother, there’s no rush. Don’t keep urging Chengrui.” Gu Ziyi spoke quickly.

To be honest, she didn’t have high hopes. After all, even the imperial physicians wouldn’t be able to find a cure for a poison of unknown origins.

“Well, what did you know? I did it, and I’m here to give you the antidote.

“However, this antidote cannot be taken all at once. It has to be taken separately over three days, three times a day, and two pills each time.” Gu Chengrui instructed as he personally handed the antidote to Gu Ziyi.

“Thank you, Chengrui. Can this really wholly remove the poison? ” Gu Ziyi clutched the medicine bottle tightly as she choked with emotion.





“Yes, but since your body has already been damaged, you need some time to recuperate.”

“Could you also give me a prescription for that? I don’t trust anyone else.”

“You’re being a little paranoid. To be honest, if you want to take care of your body, you first have to be good at distinguishing between friends and enemies. Otherwise, you’ll be tricked again.” Gu Chengrui advised her.

“Sigh…” The patriarch sighed heavily after hearing this.

The others also fell silent.

Gu Chengrui saw that everyone had stopped talking and didn’t ask any more questions. He stood up and said, “It’s getting late, and we wish you a safe journey tomorrow.”

“Uncle, we’ll be going back now,” he said to the patriarch.

The clan leader thought of the troubles in Gu Ziyi’s family and had no intention of holding the couple back. He nodded and thanked them, saying, “In the future, come over, and I will thank you again. Chengen, send them off, will you?”

“Alright.” Gu Chengen responded and then stood up to send them out. He asked, “Chengrui, you know how to play chess, right? We’re free during the new year, so why don’t you come for a bout of chess together when you’re free?”

“Alright, sure. We’ll be heading back now.” Gu Chengrui said his farewells as he walked back with Zhou Ying.

The couple was busy in the interspace for the next few days or out for visits, and their everyday lives were quite relaxed.

Of course, Gu Chengrui would occasionally receive patients who sought his consultations.
