“Seeing how Gu Chengjun has matured so much, I’m truly relieved,” the Yaoshan Divine Doctor remarked.
“Indeed,” Mother God agreed. “When do you think we should reveal ourselves to them?”
“Let’s assess their situation first,” he suggested.
“If the elders can regain their strength, perhaps there’s no need to subject them to the pain of separation again.
“If they falter, then we’ll step in and offer comfort.”
Mother God nodded silently, accepting his reasoning.
Thanks to the presence of witnesses and concrete evidence, the driver swiftly secured a favorable verdict in the lawsuit. However, due to his involvement in the past murder, he faced immediate imprisonment.
As for the masterminds, the Yao family, their initial pursuit of acquiring Food City backfired spectacularly. Their business plummeted, and coupled with pressure from opposing forces, they were forced to shut down.
But, that was a story for another time.
On the day the verdict was announced, Mrs. Gu was hospitalized. Mother God and the Yaoshan Divine Doctor wasted no time visiting her, remaining by her side for three days.
Indeed, the elderly woman’s health deteriorated with each passing day, and Mr. Gu’s condition wasn’t much better. While taking a break in the hospital courtyard, the two decided to bring some of the Yaoshan Divine Doctor’s concoctions and approach them.
Mr. Gu was taken aback when he saw them. “We’re here to visit,” Mother God explained. “We’re friends of Gu Chengrui. Would it be possible to find a quiet place to talk?”
“A friend… of my son?” Mr. Gu stammered, scrutinizing them with suspicion. Chengrui hadn’t had many friends, and those he did have, he recognized. The couple before him were strangers.
Then, a thought struck him. Their resemblance to his deceased son and daughter-in-law was uncanny. He pointed at them, speechless.
Mrs. Gu, misinterpreting his gesture, cried out excitedly, “Chengrui, Ying’er!” “No…” Mr. Gu began to protest.
“Mom,” the Yaoshan Divine Doctor interjected, squatting down and taking her hand in his.
“You, you…” Mr. Gu sputtered, on the verge of fainting. The Yaoshan Divine Doctor swiftly supported him, offering a calming massage.
Regaining his composure, Mr. Gu addressed them directly. “Who are you exactly? We personally sent the bodies of our eldest son and his wife to be cremated. Don’t try to deceive us.”
Realizing her mistake, Mrs. Gu kept her gaze fixed on them, a flicker of fear lest they vanish if she looked away.
“Let’s move aside and talk,” the Yaoshan Divine Doctor suggested, guiding them to a secluded grove nearby.
He then proceeded to provide a brief account of their experiences. However, upon witnessing their disbelief, he recounted his foolish mistakes when he was young.
“You’re really…” Mrs. Gu breathed, overcome with a wave of emotion.
“We are,” they both acknowledged. “We apologize for worrying you. We didn’t want to disturb you further or cause you more grief. Little did we know, it would affect your health so drastically.”
“Therefore, we had no choice but to reveal ourselves and try to comfort you,” Mother God added.
“Yes, and we have a lot on our plate right now. We even have three children,” the Yaoshan Divine Doctor announced with a smile.
“Can we meet the children?” Mrs. Gu inquired eagerly.
“Of course,” the Yaoshan Divine Doctor reassured her. “But you have to keep taking these medications diligently. Once you’re recovered, visit this address to find us.” He then handed them a collection of medicine packets.
Mr. Gu took them but couldn’t help but ask, “Can’t you all come home?” “Unfortunately, no,” the Yaoshan Divine Doctor replied. “There are too many people who recognize us back there. It’s safer if we maintain a low profile.” Understanding the situation, Mr. Gu could only nod in agreement. It wouldn’t be prudent for them to return home publicly.
