Li Man took the bracelet that Gu Zhao had re-strung for her. She caressed the two smaller Vajra Pearls and two Spirit Gathering Pearls. She wasn't sure if it was just in her head, but she felt much more at ease.
Gu Qi also took his bracelet and eagerly put it on his wrist. He looked at it from every angle, unable to get enough. He grew so antsy that he wanted to go outside and test if the bracelet really worked.
Gu Zhao said dryly, "If you want to test if this thing works, you can have Mom try chopping it with a kitchen knife."
Li Man's eyes lit up, while Gu Qi frantically shook his head.
DING—
After the crisp sound, Li Man was satisfied, and Gu Qi, still shaken, sat back down at the dining table.
But at that moment, they were both incredibly excited and euphoric. If not for Gu Zhao being there, they would have gone straight upstairs.
Gu Zhao picked up a piece of twice-cooked pork with his chopsticks and asked his dad, "Do you go to Mountain City often?"
