บท 43: Peace Blessing

Gu Dai's attention fell on the box in Gu Ming's hands, causing her to question, "What is this?"

Gu Ming lifted the lid, presenting a jade pendant of a "peace blessing."

The "peace blessing" didn't stand out, in fact, it could be described as quite worn. A quick look could tell that it had been around for several years. It was the kind of thing most wouldn't bother to look at twice.

But Gu Dai reacted with surprise when she saw the "peace blessing."

Struggling to believe her own eyes, she rubbed them and took the "peace blessing" straight from Gu Ming's hand, wondering, "Why is younger uncle's peace blessing here?"

As a four-year-old, Gu Dai once found herself alone at home when a fire broke out, possibly due to dry weather. By the time the heat woke her up, the surrounding area was already on fire. Overwhelmed with fear, she cried loudly. That's when her younger uncle braved the flames to rescue her.
