"Your Uncle Zhou came to our house to drink with your dad a while ago. He hugged your dad and cried. He hated himself for not being able to help your dad. With red eyes, he told your dad that he was not afraid of death, but he still had a daughter and elderly people at home. He really didn't dare to offend Li Jun."
Gu Qingfeng also recalled that Uncle Zhou, who was always chatting and laughing at the dinner table, had been a long-time friend of his father, and the two had known each other since middle school.
When I was a child, I often bought myself food because I was afraid of being scolded when I got home if I caused trouble at school.
She always secretly sent Uncle Zhou to school to help her keep it a secret from her family.
Gu Qingfeng sighed inwardly, but the fact that his family was being treated this way, and that Uncle Zhou did nothing to help, made him very sad.
Even if he didn't have to do anything, just standing up and speaking out against the injustice done to Gu Tian would be enough for Gu Qingfeng to understand him.
Gu Tian also spoke up, also to explain for his old brother, as he didn't want his son and Lao Zhou to have any rift.
"Child, that's how people are. Once they have a family, children, and elderly parents, all the burdens fall on their shoulders, and they simply don't dare to take any risks."
If your Uncle Zhou weren't married, he would risk his life to stop others from bullying your father like this. I'm confident in my judgment of character.
Gu Qingfeng lowered his head and remained silent. In the end, he was just a young man in his early twenties, and his state of mind was indeed far inferior to his father's.
Gu Qingfeng didn't intend to discuss the topic any further, and then conjured up five million US dollars in the same way, asking his parents to deposit it into the card the next day.
I can't always stay at home; I have to go to various worlds to do missions, and after a while, I have to go back to the Dragon Ball world to participate in the Universal Martial Arts Tournament.
There always needs to be some money at home to cover his parents' daily expenses. He didn't need to worry about their safety, especially on the night he returned.
The latest move, created by fusing Soul Punisher and Soul Guardian, is Absolute Soul Defense, which not only makes the judgment of hostility more accurate.
The difference in strength is also enormous. Although he has never seen any so-called martial arts masters, Gu Qingfeng is certain that with current technology, even an atomic bomb could not destroy his protective shield in the slightest.
It's not just about physical defense; the essence of absolute soul defense lies in the soul's defensive capabilities, using one's own energy to protect one's parents' bodies at the same time.
It is still slowly flowing into the parents' souls at all times, forging their weak soul power into something stronger and stronger.
The process may be slow, and rushing things could damage the parents' souls, whose defenses are incredibly strong.
With double protection, no one could harm his parents. The assassins sent by Li Jun's father arrived that very night, but they were immediately detected as hostile by the absolute defense as soon as they entered the house.
They vanished silently into the sea of energy, their flesh and blood evaporated and disappeared. No one knew that two assassins had died that night.
My parents spent a day cleaning the house. There wasn't much to begin with; they just took away small items that held sentimental value. They figured the house would just stay there.
After Gu Tian took some time to deposit five million into his bank card, he planned to take Guan Yun shopping for clothes in the evening.
Shangguan Yun's clothes at home are all old styles from many years ago. Now that he has money, he wants to make it up to his wife.
"All expenses today will be paid by Grandpa Gu. Xiaoyunzi, just tell me what you want."
Shangguan Yun smiled and pinched his ear.
"You used your son's money to buy it for me? Aren't you ashamed? And you call yourself 'Grandpa Gu'? I'll give you one more chance."
Gu Tian quickly begged his wife for forgiveness, no longer daring to show off.
"You were wrong, you were wrong, Your Highness knows you were wrong."
The two of them had always been in charge of internal affairs, with Shangguan Yun managing the household and Gu Tian handling external affairs. As long as there were no outsiders present, Shangguan Yun was the one who made the decisions at home.
When friends are present, Shangguan Yun will always give Gu Tian face.
The couple had only argued once in their many years of marriage, after Shangguan Yun gave birth to Gu Qingfeng. She wanted a second child, but Gu Tian absolutely refused.
She felt that childbirth was too dangerous and insisted on having only one child. Shangguan Yun repeatedly explained that it only looked scary and that with current medical technology, there wouldn't be any major problems.
Gu Tian was determined not to have a second child. Shangguan Yun knew he was doing it for her own good, but she also longed to give the man she loved another daughter.
That was one of the few real arguments between the two, and in the end, Shangguan Yun still couldn't win against Gu Tian.
Apart from that one incident, the two had always gotten along very well. Although their family wasn't very wealthy, Shangguan Yun was always immersed in happiness.
Gu Tian called out towards Gu Qingfeng's bedroom.
"Hey kid, are you coming to buy clothes for your mom?"
"Go, I want to buy a few outfits too."
Gu Qingfeng pushed open the door; he also needed to change his clothes, even though this battle suit wouldn't get dirty or smelly.
However, he can't always be shirtless. He thinks it looks pretty cool, but he has to admit it attracts too much attention from women. He even feels like he might be eaten by these women!
The roar of the car engine once again drew the attention of the surrounding residents. Gu Tian greeted everyone a few times and then drove straight to the traditional Chinese costume and cheongsam shop in the central area.
Gu Tian said through gritted teeth, clearly resentful that his son wouldn't tell him everything.
"Didn't you want to buy a few cheongsams a long time ago? Today, let's spend as much as we can and see how much money this kid has left."
Shangguan Yun, with her stunningly beautiful face, chuckled and rolled her eyes at him, saying coquettishly...
"You're such a grown man, yet you still have no manners. Even if your son has money, he can't just squander it."
Louis Koo was captivated by Shangguan Yun's beauty. Even after decades of marriage, he remained infatuated with her looks.
To be honest, Louis Koo is definitely a handsome guy, and he could have made a living based on his looks when he was young. But compared to the gentle and virtuous Shangguan Yun, he can only be considered average.
Shangguan Yun was more than just a school beauty back then; she was the kind of woman who outshone all the young women in the capital. Wherever she was, all the other women seemed dull and uninteresting.
She attracts everyone's attention; she has excellent grades and comes from a prestigious family, so everyone thinks she has a bright future.
Gu Tian was completely infatuated with Shangguan Yun at that time, and to everyone's surprise, Shangguan Yun accepted Gu Tian's advances.
There were no excessive difficulties or so-called wealth disparities. After the two got together, Gu Tian was completely obedient to Shangguan Yun.
Shangguan Yun, who is over forty years old, has skin that is still as delicate as that of a thirty-year-old woman, perhaps due to her constitution, even without regular skincare.
However, after Gu Qingfeng died, perhaps due to some unseen force, Shangguan Yun never smiled again.
Now, with that smile and that tender, affectionate tone, Louis Koo says he can't quite handle it.
"I just wanted to see how rich he really was. He knew the owner of the villa complex and even got someone to give him one for free. He also conjured up a Ferrari and US dollars."
Watching his parents flaunt their affection, Gu Qingfeng didn't dare to complain. He could only reply weakly.
"It's alright, spend it however you like, there's plenty of money. If you like it, just buy that cheongsam shop. Your son may not have much else, but he has so much money he doesn't know what to do with it."
Gu Tian turned the steering wheel while blaming himself.
"If she hadn't been with me, your mother wouldn't be so happy to buy a nice piece of clothing. In the end, it's because your father is incompetent that your mother has suffered because of me."
Seeing Gu Tian's guilty expression, Shangguan Yun couldn't bear to offer any words of comfort.
"I'm happy that my son is alright and has become successful. I don't care what clothes he buys for me, and you know that too. Besides, I'm the one who caused you to end up like this."
Gu Qingfeng was completely bewildered. He didn't know about the grudges and grievances of the older generation, but he knew from his parents that his mother had once been the apple of the eye of a large family.
Ultimately, she defied her family's wishes and did not marry into another family. Instead, she chose her father, and the two returned to their hometown to live.
He never considered that his mother had severed ties with his family, that he had never met his maternal grandfather since childhood, and that he had little impression of that family.
According to his mother, that family had apparently attacked his father before. Gu Qingfeng's eyes flashed with coldness, and he took the time to ask his father about it privately.
If necessary, Gu Qingfeng wouldn't mind giving them a painful lesson.
"Alright, it's not your fault. The child is still here. Let's go buy clothes first."
Gu Tian put his thoughts aside and stopped discussing the past. He wasn't very familiar with driving, and he didn't want anything to go wrong.
