Chapter 643: Living Bodhisattva
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Although Guo Guo did not respond to the old man’s words, she did not hate Gu Man as much as she did from the beginning.
She was not the kind of person who did not know how to repay kindness. She would definitely not forget Gu Man’s kindness to her.
Thinking of this, Guo Guo clenched her fists, her eyes flickering.
Just as the old man was about to take out the bowl on the table, he heard a knock on the door. A voice that he had not heard for a long time sounded at the door. The two of them were stunned.
After hearing that voice, the old man placed the bowl in his hand on the table and went to the door excitedly to open it.
He looked at Gu Man, who was standing outside the door, with excitement in his eyes. “Miss Gu, I thought you wouldn’t come again.”
“Why wouldn’t I come? Guo Guo’s illness hasn’t been cured yet.” Gu Man put her hands in her pockets and smiled faintly.
“It’s not cured yet? I thought it was cured.” The old man revealed an honest expression.
“How can it be cured? I just prescribed some Chinese medicine to make Guo Guo’s body better.” Gu Man walked up to Guo Guo and naturally reached out to feel her pulse.
Guo Guo was no longer as resistant as before. Instead, she was especially cooperative. She kept staring at Gu Man, her emotions fluctuating.
“Looks like you’ve indeed been drinking your medicine properly recently. Your physique has improved a little. I can start the treatment today.” Gu Man let go and looked up at her slightly chubby face.
Guo Guo’s facial features were exquisite to begin with. Now that she had gained some flesh on her face, she looked even more beautiful.
Especially those eyes. There seemed to be water flowing in them, clear and bright.
“Are you really here for that stone?” Guo Guo asked curiously.
Although Gu Man was very interested in the performance of that stone at the beginning, she had not heard anything for such a long time. She did not seem to care so much about the meteorite.
Guo Guo suspected more than once that it was because her identity had been exposed. Gu Man had come because she had something to ask of her, but it did not seem like it because she had not revealed any intention related to this until now.
“Of course,” Gu Man replied without hesitation.
The old lady’s ears twitched slightly when she heard this. He immediately took out the ordinary meteorite from the drawer beside her. “Miss Gu, I’ve wanted to give you this stone for a long time, but you haven’t come, so I couldn’t find a good opportunity.”
Looking at the meteorite and the old man’s sincere face, Gu Man did not resist anymore and put the stone into her backpack.
The old man looked at this scene and did not show any unwillingness on his face. Instead, he was very happy. After all, he had only used a stone that he had no use for to exchange for his granddaughter’s life. What was there to be reluctant about?
“Miss Gu, you’re simply the reincarnation of a living Bodhisattva. There’s no one else in this world who’s kinder than you.” The old man’s tone was especially excited, even giving Guo Guo and Gu Man the illusion that the old man would kneel down and worship Gu Man in the next second.
“We’re just exchanging interests. You have what I want, and I have what you want.” Gu Man accepted the stone because of Guo Guo’s words just now, so that Guo Guo would not suspect her intentions.
Guo Guo was a very vigilant person. She could not be anxious and could only take it step by step.
After she finished speaking, Guo Guo looked at her and heaved a sigh of relief. She did not know why she suddenly relaxed, but there were too many people with ulterior motives around her. She had to be wary of everyone who approached her.
“That stone can’t repay your kindness. If you need any help, just tell me.” Guo Guo looked at Gu Man with even more determination than before.
When she met Guo Guo’s gaze, Gu Man knew that her plan was half successful.
“Okay.” She agreed nimbly. She wanted to advance in order to make Guo Guo believe her more.
Guo Guo nodded, and the light in her eyes became brighter. That light was called hope. It would not be an exaggeration to say that she had been reborn now. She was no longer as lifeless as before..
