Chapter 45: Rong Family’s Jade Pendant
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Old Master Rong wanted to understand what had happened. Yunbao and Gu Peng realized that it might be a family matter, so they waited outside the ward.
After a while, the door opened. It was obvious that Old Master Rong was not in a good mood.
After all, his son and daughter-in-law were no longer around. His only grandson had been overseas all this time. Now, he had suddenly appeared in the country with wounds all over his body. No one would be happy about this.
Old Master Rong calmed down and invited the two of them into the ward.
“Sorry, I was a little anxious just now.” Old Master Rong straightened his clothes and asked the Rong family’s bodyguards to leave.
“Thank you so much for saving my grandson.” Old Master Rong bowed solemnly to Yunbao and Gu Peng. Now, it was Yunbao and Gu Peng’s turn to be at a loss.
“No, no, Uncle Rong, aren’t you shortening my lifespan?!” Gu Peng quickly went forward to help Old Master Rong up. “Besides, I didn’t save him. This is all thanks to our Yunbao!” With that, Gu Peng pushed Yunbao forward and sent her to Old Master Rong.
Only then did Old Master Rong turn his gaze to Yunbao. Just like the last time they met, the little girl was still so lively, like a little glutinous rice ball.
“You saved Little Xuan?” Old Master Rong slowly squatted down and asked Yunbao. He did not expect Yunbao to be so kind and brave at such a young age.
“Xuanxuan saved me, so I have to save him too!” Yunbao answered seriously.
“What? You were kidnapped too?” Old Master Rong was a little surprised. “Good child, thank goodness you’re fine.” He turned around and looked at Rong Xuan before looking at Yunbao. A smile that Yunbao could not understand appeared on his face.
He reached out and touched Yunbao’s head lovingly. “Grandpa Rong has to thank you.”
As he spoke, he took out a jade pendant and stuffed it into Yunbao’s hand. There was a word engraved on it, but Yunbao did not recognize it.
When Gu Peng saw the jade pendant, he suddenly could not sit still and hurriedly ran over.
“You can’t do that!” Gu Peng pushed back. He didn’t want Yunbao to accept this jade pendant because the word engraved on it was “Rong”, the Rong family’s ancestral jade pendant. If Yunbao accepted it, it meant that she had to marry that kid from the Rong family in the future.
He naturally could not let go. After all, if his other brothers found out that Yunbao had become someone else’s soon-to-be grand daughter-in-law under his company, they would break his legs. Not to mention his brothers, even Old Master Gu and Old Madam Gu would not agree.
However, Old Master Rong was not prepared to stop just like that. Instead, he used his status as an elder to suppress him.
“What are you doing? I’m not giving it to you. It’s for our Little Yunbao!” Old Master Rong’s tone was irresistibly dignified.
Seeing that Gu Peng was about to say something, Old Master Rong spoke again. “If you reject me again, I’ll make a small advertisement about you trying to get yourself drunk with water and wet your bed because you were dumped by a female classmate in primary school and post it everywhere.”
Gu Peng was stunned when he heard this because this had really happened. He could not refute it.
This was the first time Yunbao had heard this story, and she immediately burst out laughing. Even Rong Xuan, who had little reactions, had a smile on his face.
Every time Old Master Rong wanted Gu Peng to be obedient, he would mention this matter.
Seeing that Gu Peng had given up struggling, Old Master Rong bypassed him and handed the jade pendant to Yunbao. He even reached out his hand to gesture for her to take it.
Yunbao looked at the jade pendant and then at Gu Peng. Gu Peng was about to shake his head when he saw Old Master Rong’s gaze on him. It was as if he would be killed by a knife in the next second if he shook his head, so he could only close his eyes and nod crazily.
Yunbao originally did not want this jade pendant. After all, it looked really expensive. However, who did not like beautiful things? Especially when this jade pendant appeared in front of her, Yunbao felt a connection with it. It was as if this jade pendant was summoning her.
Yunbao looked at Old Master Rong’s eager gaze again and finally reached out to take the jade pendant.
“Thank you, Grandpa Rong.” Yunbao also bowed to Old Master Rong, making him laugh. Gu Peng, who was at the side, also revealed an expression that was unknown if he was crying or laughing.
“By the way, Little Yunbao, how old are you?” Old Master Rong asked again.
“Yunbao just celebrated her fourth birthday,” Gu Yun replied seriously.
“Then you should call our Little Xuan Big Brother! He’s a year older than you.”
Old Master Rong was clearly even more satisfied. “Quick, call him Brother Xuanxuan. He will recover faster!” Old Master Rong even laughed after teasing them..
