Gu Chengrui stepped forward and wrapped his arms around her. “Don’t be sad,” he murmured. “I haven’t changed. These challenges are just something we have to face eventually.”
Zhou Ying nodded, burying her face in his embrace and holding on tightly.
The next morning, Lin Yitian approached Gu Chengrui, concern etched on his face. “Marquis, how are you feeling today? Should we consult a doctor?”

“There’s no need,” Gu Chengrui replied with a smile, patting Lin Yitian’s shoulder. “It’s just an old ailment. I’ll be alright once I return home and rest.”
“Remember, if you feel any discomfort, speak up immediately. If need be, we can take a boat back to the capital. Most importantly, prioritize your health upon your return.”
“I appreciate the offer,” Gu Chengrui said. “Sure, let’s take a boat. I’d prefer to return directly to our hometown. Guoguo and the others haven’t gone back yet, either.”
“Understood,” Lin Yitian acknowledged. “I’ll get everything arranged right away.”
Gu Chengrui then prescribed himself some medication. It served two purposes: firstly, to slow the deterioration of his body, and secondly, to prevent anyone from suspecting anything amiss.
That night, the group rented a boat and hurriedly embarked on their return journey. However, their progress was halted midway due to frozen river conditions, forcing them to switch to a carriage.
During the journey, Zhou Ying presented an idea. “Rui,” she began, “why don’t we purchase a large ship under the guise of a seafaring adventure? It would serve two purposes.”
“Firstly, it would deter the He family from making things difficult for Gu Wanning and the others. Secondly, it would provide Guoguo and the others with a safe haven if they ever needed to retreat or train.”
“What are you two whispering about?” Guoguo chimed in, momentarily diverting her attention from the building blocks she was playing with Third Fatty. Even Chenchen, engrossed in his comic book, looked up curiously.
Gu Chengrui peeked outside, ensuring no one was in earshot, before whispering, “Promise me you won’t be surprised by what you’re about to hear, alright?”
The siblings exchanged glances and nodded solemnly. “We can keep a secret.”
Satisfied, Gu Chengrui beckoned them closer. Zhou Ying took Guoguo’s place, joining Third Fatty in their playtime as she subtly extended her divine sense outward, remaining vigilant for any potential leaks.
This time, Gu Chengrui chose not to sugarcoat their past. He revealed their true identities and his experiences as a transmigrator.
Surprisingly, the news didn’t faze the siblings. After all, the concepts of interspace and cultivation were already familiar to them. Their surprise stemmed from the revelation of the couple’s transmigration.
Curiosity sparking within her, Guoguo asked, “Tell me about the modern world! Is it very different from the Great Ming?”
“It’s different,” Gu Chengrui began, finally ready to share everything. He launched into a detailed explanation of modern life.
“So, all your skills and knowledge came from the modern world?” Guoguo asked, a hint of astonishment in her voice.
“Yeap,” Gu Chengrui confirmed. “But it wouldn’t have amounted to anything without our hard work in this world. Even with modern knowledge, we wouldn’t have achieved success if we didn’t adapt and apply it here.” freewebnσvel.cѳm
Guoguo couldn’t help but feel a pang of longing.
Chenchen, ever the curious one, piped up, “Daddy, did you say there are guns you mentioned in the warehouse? What about airplanes and tanks?”
Gu Chengrui chuckled. “There are drones, but actual airplanes are out of reach for now. We’d need a pilot’s license to operate one, anyway. Guns and tanks are restricted items, not available for civilian purchase.
“If you’re ever curious about them, I’m afraid you’ll have to wait until your mother and I regain our true selves, or perhaps until you cultivate to the level of immortals.”
