Female Master: Why doesn’t my wife love me yet?

Chapter 130 Past and Future

Gu Qingyuan didn't quite believe what he said and asked suspiciously, "Are you serious?"

How could such a good thing happen that someone would be willing to share his or her life with someone who could be said to be a stranger?

Chu Zhiyan smiled miserably, "At this point, do you think I still need to lie to you?"

"That's different," Gu Qingyuan said, shaking his head. "What if you want to use this opportunity to make me let you out?"

The more she thought about it, the more she felt it was possible, and her eyes became a little wary.

If he escapes from prison because of me, I will be a criminal.

Chu Zhiyan seemed to have used up all his strength when he spoke, and he tried hard to look at her face.

"If, in a different way, we might not have reached this point now?"

"That's not necessarily the case."

Gu Qingyuan stood there leisurely, but her peripheral vision kept track of his every move.

What Chu Zhiyan said just now was too unbelievable. He said that he came from two hundred years ago. His original body was a Taoist priest. His corpse was eaten and he came into this body.

Perhaps out of revenge, he began to use living people to make medicine and constantly transform his own body.

Chu Zhiyan said something else that was enough to shock Gu Qingyuan.

After he finished speaking, Gu Qingyuan didn't care about anything else and raised her hand to cover his mouth.

He said, "I can sense that you are not from this world either."

However, after he finished speaking, he saw her angry look.

"What are you talking about!"

Gu Qingyuan didn't tell anyone that she had traveled through time. This was too unbelievable to these ancient people, and she might even be regarded as a monster.

However, when Chu Zhiyan saw her reaction, he already understood.

Because she does not belong to this world, she is not under my control and can still be close to me.

Gu Qingyuan felt even more that this person could not be kept.

After she released Chu Zhiyan, she planned to leave the prison. But for some reason, when she thought about how he not only cured her of the poison but also shared his life with her, Gu Qingyuan decided to talk to him for a while longer.

"Forget it. You're about to die anyway, and no one will believe you if you say that."

"So, Young Master Gu admits what I said?"

"Otherwise," Gu Qingyuan raised his eyebrows, "How did you figure that out?"

"I guessed, of course."

Afterwards, he asked her as if begging, "Can you tell me what your original world was like?"

He wanted to know about her past.

After Gu Qingyuan made sure that there was no one else around, she said to him, "I can tell you, but you can't tell anyone else. Likewise, I will forget what you just said."

"It's natural."

Thinking of his past life, Gu Qingyuan felt both nostalgic and regretful.

"I'm from the future."

She and Chu Zhiyan are from the past and the future respectively.

Chu Zhiyan's eyes really lit up.

"The future? What kind of world is that?"

"Where we are, men and women are equal. Both men and women can go to school and work."

She saw the longing in Chu Zhiyan's eyes, cleared her throat, and continued, "I live in a peaceful country. Although there are constant wars outside the world, my country protects us."

When she spoke of this, her tone was filled with pride and pride.

"You wouldn't believe it, a thousand miles in less than two hours... Hey, we can get there in just one hour."

(One li is 500 meters.)

Chu Zhiyan was indeed shocked by what he said.

Even the fastest horse today would take more than a day to travel a thousand miles, but she actually said that in the future it would only take an hour to travel a thousand miles.

What a shocking world this is.

Gu Qingyuan introduced to him many things that he was accustomed to, but each one made this ancient man extremely envious.

"...You said that people can still fly in the sky."

"Yes, you can take a plane. Planes are very fast."

Chu Zhiyan's breathing became rapid, and he muttered to himself, "How wonderful it would be if I could live in a world like this for a day."

Most people there can have enough food to eat and can go wherever they want. It is simply a better place than a paradise.

Suddenly, he asked Gu Qingyuan again: "Did you die in that world and come here?"

Speaking of this, Gu Qingyuan felt a little embarrassed and touched his nose, "Forget it, let's not talk about this."

The way she died was somewhat unique.

After the conversation, the two were silent for a long time.

Chu Zhiyan kept looking at her, as if he wanted to carve her appearance into his eyes.

Someone outside came to urge him, so Gu Qingyuan walked out.

"Be honest and don't try any tricks."

When she went out, she heard the jailer scolding Chu Zhiyan.

She turned around and met his eyes, her heart trembling.

Then, Gu Qingyuan walked out quickly.

After they went out, General Gu hurriedly asked her, "Are you okay in there?"

"No," she shook her head gently and held General Gu's hand, "Mom, let's go back."

Gu Qingyuan stayed inside for nearly an hour, but General Gu, who was guarding outside, felt that a whole day had passed. Seeing that she didn't seem to be in trouble, he felt relieved.

"By the way, Mom, I have something else to ask you..."

"Okay, let's go home and talk."

The mother and daughter bid farewell to the empress and returned to the general's mansion.

Gu Qingyuan went back and took the medical book left by her father in her room.

She said with a hint of seriousness: "Mom, my father's death wasn't just due to a difficult birth, right?"

General Gu was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly.

"There are a lot of toxins left in his body from constantly taking medication."

If that's true, that's why I was also affected by the medicine while in his stomach.

But Chu Zhiyan said that he had already cured the poison by using his own heart blood as a pact.

Gu Qingyuan took out a silver needle and pricked his finger.

"What are you doing?"

General Gu asked in confusion.

Gu Qingyuan took a herb according to the records in the medical book and dripped blood on it.

Her blood looked brighter red than ever.

"Actually, a fortune teller once said that you will have a calamity when you turn twenty."

Gu Qingyuan observed the changes in the herbs and found that the leaves became greener after being nourished by her blood.

Hearing General Gu's words, she raised her head.

Twenty years old, isn't that this year...

"But seeing that you are fine now, I am relieved."

Gu Qingyuan's mind was a little confused now. Sometimes Chu Zhiyan's words were circling in his mind, and sometimes some images kept flashing by.

She was silent for a while, then returned to her young master's courtyard with the medical book.

Chunfen rushed over to greet her as usual, but she did not tease Chunfen like before.

Instead, he walked around her and went back.
