Second Part: East Land Sugar Chapter 19: Blessings

ral interviews after being rejected. While she wasn't discouraged, she was a bit tired. She had an indomitable spirit, stubbornly refusing to use her connections to secure a job. She wanted to see jus...Baosang downed his drink in one gulp, the burning sensation traveling from his mouth all the way to his stomach. His eyes, which had only been slightly wet before, suddenly flushed red upon hearing his words. He poured himself another glass and offered a glass to Gu Ruandong as well, urging him to drink.

Gu Ruandong took the wine but didn't drink it. He didn't want to come home smelling of alcohol again later, so he slowly continued to pour the wine in front of Boss Bao's grave. After pouring, he said:

"Bao Sang, turn back. The world today is not the same as it was before. If you keep going this way, your space to survive will only shrink. Do you want to continue living your days on the edge of a knife"

Gu Ruandong, looking at their past friendship, for the first time, and the only time, sincerely advised her. If she was willing to turn back, they could still be friends, and he would do everything he could to help her.

The Gu Group and Baojia have never had any real economic dealings.

Before, many of the industries under Gu's Group were just hovering on the edge, and there wasn't anything illegal when you looked into it carefully; whereas Bao Family's industries mostly used legal facades as cover-ups, making them difficult to scrutinize further.

Gu Ruandong and Bao Shu were more like a mutually beneficial relationship. In the early years, Gu Ruandong needed Bao Shu to help him deal with matters on the street; later, Bao Shu needed his help to consolidate his position above, making his business appear more legitimate.

The operations of the two companies can be completely independent, but the intricate web of interpersonal relationships makes them appear to be an economic entity.

That is why Baosang did not allow him to privately unravel this community.

Baosang's eyes were red. "Do you think I could turn back Let me watch the Bao family fall into ruin like this Let all these years of imprisonment I've endured be for nothing"

"Gu Ruandong, since things have come to this, there's no point in talking more. What did my father leave me"

Gu Ruandong: "The money Bao Shu left you, I'll arrange for a lawyer and financial advisor to meet with you tomorrow to handle the transfer."

And what else

"The land and the factory on the west side have always been under your name, Bao Shu hired people to manage them, you can contact them directly. But Bao Sang, this is my final reminder to you, things are different now. If you continue in this line of work, it won't be just about going back in again."

Gu Ruandong had been as righteous and kind as possible. After finishing his words, he turned and walked straight down the mountain. It was pitch black now, the cemetery shrouded in darkness, with only the stars overhead providing a faint glimmer to guide his path.

Baosang walked behind him, their figures advancing and receding, like two black shadows stretched by the moonlight.

He got to his car without even saying hello, opened the door and hopped in.

"Where to"

"Boly Club," she had been living at the Boly Club ever since she got out of prison, not going home. She didn't want to go back; that house was empty.

Gu Ruandong didn't speak either. He drove her directly to the entrance of Baili Club and then turned the car around and left.

Lu Yaoyao had two near-car accidents in a row. Now she's the focus of protection on the film set. Every time she has a scene, the entire location is checked again and again, making it feel like filming an action movie.

Lu Yao Yao then remembered to ask, "What about the girl who was driving that day"

"Later, the investigation revealed that a crew member on set was sick that day and asked his cousin to take over for him. They said his cousin also had experience working with film crews."

Lu YaoYao: "Do you actually believe that" The way that girl looked at her that day wasn't normal.

"Of course not, didn't Shao Gu investigate privately He said it was a competitor sent to scare you and he has already warned them. Didn't he tell you"

He's been very busy lately, he probably forgot.

Lu Yaoyao thought about it, and she seemed to have never told him about the two car accidents.

Haojie said, "Your luck hasn't been good lately. Tomorrow happens to be a day off for you, so let's go to Huìyuàn Temple and get you an amulet for safety."

"Okay."

Gu Ruandong heard that she was going to Huiyuan Temple to pray for blessings and smiled: "My Yaoyao still believes this"

"Can you just give me some emotional comfort"

It's not really about superstition. It's just that I feel like she's been constantly anxious and on edge lately, so I thought going to make an offering would help calm her mind.

"I'll go with you."

"It's alright, Haojie and Shanshan are going, plus some other colleagues from the company. If you were there, they wouldn't feel comfortable." People at her company were very afraid of him. This time going to pray was also a team building activity for the company organized by Haojie. So don't make everyone uncomfortable just because of you.

Okay, I'll pick you up when you're done.

Huiyuan Temple is located on Mount Hui in Senzhou. Along the way, Haojie introduced: "Yaoyao, this time, you not only ask for peace, but you can also pray to the Guanyin of Giving Birth. It is said to be very effective."

Lu Yaoyao laughed, "Aren't you afraid that I getting pregnant will delay your work"

"Haojie: "Your lifelong marriage is the most important thing. Yaoyao, don't blame your elder sister for speaking harshly, I've seen a lot, so what I say is the truth. With a man like Gu Shao from your family, having a child would be beneficial for family stability."

Lu Yaoyao: "If a family has to rely on children to maintain it, is there any point in its existence"

Hao Jie fell silent, her perspective was too limited, she judged them using the standards of an ordinary family.

"On the side, Shanshan suddenly said: 'I'm going to seek marriage luck, hoping to find a partner this year.'"

She made a guide online, saying that Huìyuàn Temple is good for seeking love and marriage, it's very accurate and fulfills wishes.

Several people, in large numbers, went up the mountain. Huiyuan Temple is a group of temples, with different statues of gods located in the scattered temples. Because it wasn't the weekend, there weren't many people, and it was relatively quiet.

Everyone went to find the idol they wanted to worship.

Lu YaoYao only had Hao Jie and Shan Shan left by her side.

First, she went to the main temple to pray for peace. After kneeling and bowing, Lu Yao Yao made a sincere wish. Her first wish wasn't for herself, but for Gu Ruandong, hoping he would be safe and prosperous. Her second wish was for her grandfather's good health. Her third wish was for her own safety. Oh, and there was a fourth wish, wishing that Lu Kuo and Ruan Ruan would have a happy and harmonious family.

After making four wishes, she bowed four times. Looking up at the majestic and solemn statue, she quietly stuck out her tongue and whispered to the deity in her heart: "Four wishes...isn't that too greedy Please, I beg you, bless us. I promise to do more good deeds."

Everyone says that if you have a sincere heart, the spirits will be moved. So she was very devout and asked Haojie to put money into the donation box. She doesn't really care about money, so she let Haojie put in one hundred thousand yuan.

Sister Hao: "Honey, I didn't bring that much cash, it's the thought that counts."

Ha Jie put in 10,000 yuan: "Next time, let's go to the Temple of Guanyin."

Everything is well-organized.

"Let's go to the Temple of Fate with Shanshan first." She wasn't in a hurry about getting pregnant and having a child, still taking a wait-and-see approach.

"That works."

To get to the temple of matchmaking, you have to pass through a grove of bamboo. There are a few stone tables in the bamboo grove for visitors to rest on. As the three people walked through the bamboo grove, Lu Yaoyao, who was walking in the middle, suddenly stopped. She saw the girl again, sitting by one of the stone tables.ly jotted it down, and then, according to everyone's request, started ordering online. 。That day was busy, fulfilling, and rewarding for Shu Tinglan. 。Of course, it would be better if Lu Kuo wasn't s...
