Rebirth: He refused to Divorce Again-Chapter 178 - 178 The Peace Buddha Pendant is a Treasure

Chapter 178: Chapter 178 The Peace Buddha Pendant is a Treasure Beyond this World Chapter 178 -178 The Peace Buddha Pendant is a Treasure Beyond this World She could hardly contain her excitement, and as she was still not ready to give up, she hurriedly dressed up and came to the gate.

But she saw Qin Yize driving a Jeep, coming out of the Qin family’s yard.

A young man was opening the gate.

And Qin Yize drove the car out of the yard.

Sitting in the driver’s seat, his profile was as perfect as a sculpture, his good-looking thin lips pressed into a cold, straight line.

Then the young lad got in the car,

and Qin Yize drove past her as if she wasn’t there, holding the steering wheel.

In the moment they passed each other, Bai Yun’s heart felt like it had fallen into an icy abyss.

Her Brother Ze didn’t even glance at her, let alone greet her.

Bai Yun knew she really had no chance anymore.

But all this was Gu Qiaoqiao’s fault.

Why? Why couldn’t Gu Qiaoqiao remain foolish forever?

Why did she have to become so clever and articulate?

Also, why didn’t she die in that forest in Border City? Why did she have to come back?

Yet all those whys couldn’t stand up to the smile on Gu Qiaoqiao’s lips.

Bai Yun clenched her fists, took a deep look at Gu Qiaoqiao, and rushed towards her own courtyard.

She had to leave.

Grandma Qin had already come back from buying groceries.

Grandma Qin was indifferent to her, and she couldn’t let Gu Qiaoqiao see her being laughed at.

Gu Qiaoqiao didn’t care and curled her lips slightly; when she looked up, she saw Grandma Qin coming with a basket of groceries.

Gu Qiaoqiao hurriedly went up to take the basket and affectionately helped Grandma Qin into the courtyard.

Then, she closed the grand door of the Qin family.

In the evening, Mr. Qin, Mother Qin, and Qin Xiaoyu returned.

Upon seeing Gu Qiaoqiao, Shen Manru showed an awkward smile.

It was very uncomfortable.

This felt different from before.

Shen Manru didn’t know how to treat Gu Qiaoqiao; being nice to her was a struggle from deep within, and she had no reason to be unpleasant to her at the moment.

Frankly speaking, Qin Xiaoyu’s personality was that of a girl who bullies the weak and fears the strong.

When you’re formidable, not only does she fear you, but she also admires you a lot.

After a few phone calls with Gu Qiaoqiao, Qin Xiaoyu was noticeably more affectionate this time.

Qin Xuan, on the other hand, was as usual.

He asked with concern about Gu Qiaoqiao’s parents and about the situation in Border City.

The dinner was lavish, naturally cooked by Gu Qiaoqiao.

Qin Xiaoyu ate with contentment, narrowing her eyes, and even acted coquettishly with Gu Qiaoqiao, “Sister-in-law, your cooking is really delicious. Stay a few more days this time.”

Gu Qiaoqiao, looking at Qin Xiaoyu like this, still felt a bit uncomfortable.

But before she could reply, Grandma Qin scolded with a laugh, “Isn’t the food I make delicious? Besides, your sister-in-law has important things to do; how can she have time to cook?”

Qin Xiaoyu stuck out her tongue and stopped talking, obediently eating her meal.

Gu Qiaoqiao smiled and still said, “It’s okay, I’ll cook when I have time.”

Seeing the two getting along better than before, Grandma Qin nodded in satisfaction.

After the dinner was over and everything was cleaned up, Gu Qiaoqiao went to her room and took out the peace charms she had carved for the three of them.

It was just a gift to settle all accounts; Gu Qiaoqiao thought it didn’t matter whether they liked them or not.

After all, it’s the sincerity that counts, especially Shen Manru, who probably wouldn’t even appreciate the peace charm.

After all, she was arrogant and had never shown much interest in her carving work before.

But those were the only gifts she could offer now.

Gu Qiaoqiao had long been prepared to be scorned.

But what she had never expected was that the first person to show a look of surprise was Shen Manru.

She even asked carefully if the three peace Buddha pendants were different from each other.

When Gu Qiaoqiao told her there was no difference, Shen Manru joyfully picked one up, grabbed Qin Xiaoyu without a word and put it on her.

Afterward, she checked the knots on the string, seemingly worried they might break on the way; that’s what Gu Qiaoqiao thought.

But the knots she tied were the sturdiest.

Unless there was an insurmountable accident, they wouldn’t break.

Once Shen Manru had put it on Qin Xiaoyu, she picked up another and personally put it on Qin Xuan, then finally put one on herself.

The moment she wore the peace Buddha pendant, a calming coolness spread through Shen Manru’s chest.

In the sweltering heat of June, the comfort seemed to soothe the restlessness in her heart.

At this moment, Shen Manru finally believed the words she had overheard that one time.

It had been when the old patriarch visited their home. At that time, Grandma Qin’s legs had already healed, and the doctor at the hospital had called it a miracle.

The rheumatoid arthritis that had tormented Grandma Qin for ten years was gone.

At the time, Shen Manru hadn’t taken it seriously.

Because the medicine Grandma Qin was taking was the best, brought back by Qin Yize.

If she had healed, that would have been normal.

Shen Manru was cooking in the kitchen while Grandma Qin and the old patriarch went for a walk in the garden. When the food was ready, she went to the small garden in the back to call them for dinner.

That’s when she accidentally overheard the old patriarch’s words.

Old patriarch: “… the peace Buddha is a treasure not of this world. The cure for your legs isn’t the medicine; it’s its doing. You must have felt it yourself.”

Grandma Qin: “Yes, my health is getting better, and so is my mood.”

Old patriarch: “Don’t tell anyone, including your second and third sons. Whether Qiaoqiao will carve for Xiaoyu and the others, well, that depends on their destiny …”

After that, Grandma Qin seemed to sigh but said no more.

By the time dinner came, because of what she had just heard, Shen Manru began to seriously ponder.

And indeed, she found it to be true.

The old patriarch appeared robust, but he actually had many ailments; however, now he looked ruddy and much healthier than he had months before.

Not to mention Grandma Qin.

Every morning, she went to the park to walk, moving even faster than Shen Manru.

So, Shen Manru took it to heart.

She was intelligent, not a person to cling to outdated beliefs, nor would she scoff at such things.

Her son was trained in medicine but didn’t practice. Yet, the medicine he supplied was the best, which had only ensured that her mother-in-law’s condition didn’t deteriorate.

Moreover, these words had come from the mouth of the old patriarch.

And the remark from the old patriarch about destiny had left her tossing and turning for several days.

But she couldn’t share this with Qin Xuan.

After all, it had been an accidental eavesdropping, and it still felt like snooping.

She always felt uneasy about explaining it to Qin Xuan.

Yet she never expected that today, their fortune would truly arrive.

When she looked at Gu Qiaoqiao now, her eyes carried genuine affection.

And Gu Qiaoqiao noticed it as well.

Shen Manru truly liked the peace Buddha pendant.

No matter the reason, it was good that she liked it.

As night deepened, the moon shone softly like water.

Gu Qiaoqiao still hadn’t gone to sleep.

She was waiting for Qin Yize.

Even though she knew that even if Qin Yize returned, there were some things she couldn’t ask, she couldn’t just go to bed.
