Chapter 429: Chapter 413: Meeting

Aiguo’s attention was indeed shifted immediately, his face first filled with surprise and then amusement. Did his two sons have a death wish? Despite Lu Jinsheng being younger, if he had to fight both, Gu Feng and Gu Meng would only manage to get squashed without any chance of fighting back.

The Gu Family had a decent-sized indoor gym in the villa’s basement. As Aiguo and the others approached, they indeed heard the sounds of a scuffle. The three of them stood at the door and peered in. Inside, Gu Feng and Gu Meng were indeed being overpowered by Lu Jinsheng, while little Pei Yi was sitting on the side eating a box of ice cream after his meal, thoroughly enjoying the scene.

...

"I can’t keep going, I surrender, okay? I’ve got to greet the bridal party tomorrow. I give up, stop hitting me--" Gu Meng pleaded for mercy.

"No way, I’ve just started warming up. Don’t worry, I won’t hit your faces. If there are bruises or purples on your bodies, nobody will see them anyway," Lu Jinsheng’s voice was filled with excitement, flatly refusing Gu Meng’s plea.

"What do you mean nobody will see? The moment I strip, do you think my wife is blind? No more fighting, if you want to play, seek out Gu Feng. At worst, I can do without one of my groomsmen tomorrow." Gu Meng rolled away lazily, tumbled out of the fighting circle, then stood up and dusted off his clothes, quite shamelessly.

"Gu Meng, does your second sister-in-law know how cowardly you are? Tsk, you’re nothing compared to Gu Feng; he hasn’t made a sound from start to finish. Even Pei Yi is almost looking down on you."

Seeing that Gu Meng had shamelessly bowed out, Lu Jinsheng also stopped and looked at him disdainfully. Having learned from Lu Yun since he was a child, he was not accustomed to calling Gu Feng and Gu Meng "cousins," always addressing them by their names. In fact, the two brothers were also used to calling each other by name.

"This is called knowing the times. He who recognizes the times is a wise man. If I can’t win, then I can’t win. Why should I stubbornly take a beating and suffer? Is getting hit a matter of pride? Sometimes Gu Feng just doesn’t know how to adapt. For example, when he likes something, he tries hard to get it, but then he won’t let go of his pride and ends up regretting it later. Serves him right for caring so much about face and suffering for it," Gu Meng said, taking an indirect dig at Gu Feng.

Gu Meng’s words targeted Gu Feng, who’s expression changed slightly, his demeanor unwilling to elaborate further.

Lu Jinsheng glanced back and forth between the two, immediately realizing that Gu Meng was talking about Gu Feng’s ex-girlfriend. Noting Gu Feng’s expression, Lu Jinsheng wrapped an arm around Gu Meng: "Enough with the sparring, why run your mouth off like that?"

"What sparring? You just want to vent for Lu Yun. Just say it directly, don’t pretend you’re not frustrated. Not just you, both Gu Feng and I are also pissed off inside. It’s only because my dad has always indulged my grandmother’s side of the family. Honestly, we’ve been fed up with them for a long time--"

"Ahem." Outside, Aiguo cleared his throat twice as a reminder, seeing Aiguo’s face turning red. Gu Feng, Gu Meng, and Lu Jinsheng looked towards the door, and Pei Yi immediately got up and rushed excitedly toward Aiguo with his little legs: "Grandpa."

"Guaibao." Aiguo lifted Pei Yi onto his shoulders and said to Lu Jinsheng with a joking scold: "Easy does it now. Don’t meddle in things you don’t understand."

"Uncle, don’t scold Jinsheng. We three haven’t met for a long time and needed to express our feelings through a fight," Gu Meng said with a mischievous grin, pulling at Gu Feng, "Right, Gu Feng?"

Gu Feng nodded naturally, and Lu Jinsheng looked proudly at Aiguo.

Aiguo shook his head with a smile.

Before dawn the next day, people from all over began to converge at the Gu Family’s villa. The villa was brightly lit, as everything started to proceed in an orderly fashion.

Gu Tianming’s brothers and sisters were also swiftly brought over. Remembering her second son’s behavior from the previous day, Mother Gu didn’t dare to act up and was exceptionally cooperative from early in the morning.

Everything went smoothly, and finally, amidst the celebratory sound of fireworks, Gu Meng, accompanied by his groomsmen, went through various "ordeals" and handed out countless red envelopes to break through the bridesmaids’ barriers, successfully bringing the bride home.

As the bride entered, Lu Yun presented the specially prepared wedding gift that she and Shitou had picked out for the newlyweds: a pair of diamond cufflinks and a diamond brooch.

The wedding banquet was held in the hotel, in the form of a buffet. In the resplendent, brightly-lit banquet hall, amidst the clinking of glasses and laughter, everyone had smiles on their faces. Most people weren’t in a rush to get food; instead, they held tall crystal glasses, gathered in small groups, or mingled amongst the crowd...

"Huh?"

Lu Yun and Shitou, carrying plates full of food, tucked themselves away in an inconspicuous spot, chatting and eating while casually watching the bustling scene. Pei Yi wasn’t with them; he was taken away by Lu Aiguo and Xia Yuan as soon as the wedding banquet began.

Suddenly, a strange expression appeared on Lu Yun’s face.

"What’s wrong?" Shitou looked in the direction she was looking, but didn’t notice anything amiss, and raised an eyebrow to ask.

"I just saw Chen Qiuyu." Lu Yun frowned in confusion. Logically, shouldn’t Chen Qiuyu be in Yushu Village at this time? Why would she be here? Could it be someone who just looks similar?

"Chen Qiuyu? Which Chen Qiuyu?" Shitou was perplexed. The name felt entirely unfamiliar, and he was sure he had never heard it from Xiaoyun’s lips before.

"The one from our village." Lu Yun briefly recounted the ending of Chen Qiuyu’s previous life, and then shook her head, "It’s probably just someone who looks quite similar."

"We can just check." Upon hearing this, Shitou quickly recalled this person from his memory, looked around, and soon found her. Even though Chen Qiuyu’s current dress and appearance were much different from her time in Yushu Village, it was still possible to see that both versions were extremely likely to be the same person.

Not believing in such a coincidence, he unhesitatingly pulled out his phone and dialed a number.

Shitou hung up shortly after and frowned at Lu Yun, "That person said it might indeed be Chen Qiuyu."

"Impossible, right?" Lu Yun’s eyes widened in disbelief.

In just a few words, Shitou told the story of the incident that Chen Qiuyu had caused in Yushu Village, and from his account, Lu Yun instantly noticed significant differences from her past life.

Lu Yun fell silent. Could it be that Chen Qiuyu was also someone reborn? If that was the case, wouldn’t she also be able to notice the differences in her life compared to the last one? And could she possibly do something about her suspicions?

As this thought emerged, Lu Yun looked at Shitou with a sense of shock and uncertainty.
