Chapter 636

Standing at the bow of the boat was an old man in a green robe with a refined appearance,

who was none other than Huang Yaoshi, with whom Gu Hanyuan had a friendship.

Fortunately, because of the angle,

Huang Yaoshi couldn't see Gu Hanyuan and them.

Huang Rong hurriedly pulled Gu Hanyuan to hide,

murmuring:

"That's right, today is my mother's death anniversary, Dad will definitely come back for a visit."

Gu Hanyuan teased with a smile:

"How about we go up and say hello to Father-in-law?"

Upon hearing this, Huang Rong rolled her eyes.

She reproached:

"Are you crazy?"

As for the term "Father-in-law," besides making the blush on her face deeper,

she didn't object.

The two were now only one step away from being husband and wife in reality but not in name.

Huang Rong was already mentally prepared.

"Don't worry so much, I've met Father-in-law once. Our friendship is quite good. Isn't it enough to just say I escorted you back to pay respects to your mother?"

Upon hearing this, Huang Rong said unhappily:

"You even have a friendship with Dad. Did you have a premeditated plan?"

Gu Hanyuan chuckled:

"That meeting was just an accident."

Huang Rong hesitated for a while,

and still said:

"Let's forget it, let's wait until Dad leaves."

She paused,

as if thinking of something.

"Come to think of it, Dad never brings me along every time he pays respects to Mother."

Gu Hanyuan's eyes flickered:

"How about we follow him and take a look?"

Huang Rong was somewhat moved,

and hesitated:

"My dad's martial arts are so high, will we be discovered?"

Gu Hanyuan smiled confidently:

"With me here, don't worry."

Huang Rong suddenly realized.

Gu Hanyuan's martial arts were indeed much stronger than Huang Yaoshi's.

Covering her alone was not a problem.

"That's true, let's follow and take a look."

Huang Rong was also curious why Huang Yaoshi never brought her along to pay respects to Feng Heng.

The two followed behind Huang Yaoshi,

and soon arrived at a house built of stone.

Inside the stone house was a stone grave,

and in front of the grave was a tombstone,

with the words "Fragrant Tomb of the Mistress of Taohuadao, Feng" written on it.

Huang Rong looked at the tombstone from afar,

her expression sad.

In her early years, every time she came back here, she would cry like a tearful person.

Now, as she grew older,

her ability to endure had improved a bit.

However, the sadness on her face had not diminished at all.

Huang Yaoshi's process of paying respects had nothing unique.

Just when Huang Rong thought she had overthought it,

she saw Huang Yaoshi turn the incense burner on the table several times,

with different directions and numbers of turns each time.

Suddenly, a secret passage entrance appeared on the ground.

Huang Rong and Gu Hanyuan looked at each other,

showing looks of astonishment.

She had paid respects to Feng Heng so many times,

but had never discovered this secret passage.

She watched in confusion as Huang Yaoshi entered the secret passage.

Gu Hanyuan's eyes were deep,

and he had a faint guess.

Huang Rong asked strangely:

"Why did Dad build a secret passage in Mother's grave?"

Gu Hanyuan pondered:

"Perhaps there is some secret."

"What kind of secret can't be told to me?"

Huang Rong frowned,

obviously somewhat dissatisfied.

Gu Hanyuan suggested:

"After your dad leaves, we'll go in and take a look, and we'll know."

Huang Rong asked in surprise:

"You remembered the order of the mechanism just now?"

Even she hadn't paid much attention just now because she was distracted.

Gu Hanyuan chuckled:

"Of course."

That confident expression naturally earned him Huang Rong's admiring gaze.

Gu Hanyuan's confidence and Guo Jing's humility formed a sharp contrast.

She hadn't felt it before,

but now she found that a confident man was so charming.

The two waited quietly.

After waiting for a full hour,

they saw Huang Yaoshi come out with a lonely expression.

He didn't stay,

and left Taohuadao directly.

Gu Hanyuan and Huang Rong looked at each other,

and walked into Feng Heng's tomb.

Gu Hanyuan followed his memory

and turned the mechanism. ===== CHAPTER 638 =====
