Chapter 21 Qin's Awakening

Li Qingfeng was not stupid. After hearing this, he came to his senses and understood why Wei Yu spared no effort to win over Gu Yunzhou. Beichen Kingdom had a total of twelve states, and Jinzhou was in the middle, neither high nor low. It had been a long time since any brilliant talent came out of it.

"Yes, otherwise, do you really think that the Zhao family and the Li family would make friends with an ordinary person for no reason?"

Wei Yu nodded in affirmation. As an heir raised in a large family since childhood, his vision was naturally extraordinary. Similarly, Zhao Kuo and Li Furong were not ordinary people either, and they also saw the potential of Gu Yunzhou.

He was lucky this time and won the first place. With the national poem in his hand and Gu Yunzhou's gratitude, if he becomes successful in the future, their Wei family will also benefit from it.

On the other side, at Gu Yunzhou's place, Qin, who had been in a coma for a long time, finally slowly opened her eyes and woke up completely. After seeing the environment clearly, she subconsciously wanted to sit up, but was gently held down by Gu Yunzhou.

Qin slowly opened her eyes and saw her son looking at her with a worried look on his face. She quickly comforted him, "Mom, you're awake. Are you feeling better? Don't move around. Get some rest. Doctor Mo said that although your life was saved, your vitality was damaged. Plus, you've been working so hard, your health isn't very good either. You should get more rest!"

Qin looked at her son sitting on the bed and asked in confusion, "Brother Yun, where are we?"

Gu Yunzhou quickly explained, "Mother, we were at Huichuntang. You were injured, and thanks to Doctor Mo's superb medical skills, he was able to bring you back from the brink of death!"

Speaking of this, Gu Yunzhou's tone was slightly gloomy, as if he thought of the reason why his mother was injured, and his hands unconsciously clenched tightly.

Qin seemed to remember something and her face turned pale. "Injured? Yes, it was the Second Young Master. He suddenly rushed up like a madman and punched and kicked me. I don't know what happened after that!"

Qin shuddered, as if recalling the scene at that time, her eyes full of fear.

Gu Yunzhou felt a pang of pain in his heart. He held his mother's hand tightly and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, Mom. I'm here. I won't let anyone hurt you in the future!"

Qin's eyes flashed with relief, but then a look of worry appeared, "Brother Yun, you must not be impulsive. That's the Second Young Master. If we offend him, how will we survive?"

Gu Yunzhou's eyes were firm. "Mom, don't worry. I will find a way to solve this matter. I will never let them bully us in vain!"

"Gu Tianhua, if you don't take revenge for this, you're not a gentleman. You bastard, I will definitely pay you back with blood!"

Gu Yunzhou was filled with anger at this moment, his eyes burning with rage. He was indeed worse than a pig.

"Brother Yun, please don't get into conflict with the Gu family. They are a wealthy family and we can't afford to offend them. Mom is fine, so please don't be impulsive!"

Qin, who was originally a little dazed and scared, saw her son's reaction and immediately held Gu Yunzhou's arm tightly. She didn't want to put her son in danger because of her.

"Mom, don't worry, I know my limits and won't resort to force!"

Gu Yunzhou took a deep breath and tried to calm his inner anger. He knew that now was not the time to confront the Gu family head-on, but he would never forget this hatred.

"Brother Yun, you're my only hope. If you go and fight them, and anything happens to you, how will I live?"

Qin was still worried and looked at her son with a worried look on her face. She was afraid that Gu Yunzhou would do something stupid in the heat of the moment.

Gu Yunzhou patted Qin's hand gently and said softly, "Mother, I know I won't do anything without confidence, but I will definitely get back this debt."

His eyes were firm and full of determination. Seeing her son so resolute, Qin Shi couldn't help but feel both relieved and worried. She knew her son had grown up and had his own ideas and decisions, but she also hoped he could protect himself.

For her, arguing with the Gu family and demanding they pay the price was practically impossible. Everyone knew that the Gu family was the most powerful family in Liuyun Town, and their power was immense. Not to mention that they had relatives serving in high positions of power in the imperial capital. It was impossible for ordinary people like them to provoke them.

As for being beaten innocently, you can only swallow your anger. This world is so realistic. Without strength and status, you have no right to seek justice.

"Mom, don't worry, I won't be impulsive. The provincial examination will be coming soon, and I need to concentrate on the exam, so that I can become a Confucian scholar with the spirit of literature in my body!"

Gu Yunzhou understood Qin's thoughts and didn't explain too much to her, only comforting her gently. He knew his mother was worried that he would do something stupid. After all, with the power of the Gu family, it would be easy for them to deal with an ordinary family.

"That's good, that's good. Yun'er's mother knows you're upset, but a gentleman's revenge is never too late. At worst, when you have the ability in the future, we can ask the Gu family for an explanation. What do you think?"

Qin looked at Gu Yunzhou nervously, fearing that he would cause disaster due to his impulsive behavior. Although she was full of resentment towards the Gu family, she also understood that the current situation was not favorable for them, so she had to endure it for the time being.

Qin carefully observed her son's expression, her heart filled with bitterness. She also wanted to rush into the Gu Mansion and settle accounts with that little bastard Gu Tianhua, but she knew she couldn't. Hadn't the Gu Mansion carried out so many bodies every year over the years? And had any of them finally gotten justice?

Gu Yunzhou nodded without refutation. However, although he agreed to his mother on the surface, he had already made up his mind deep in his heart.

He would never forget the humiliation he suffered today and would definitely find a way to make the Gu family pay the price. After the provincial examination, the literary spirit would enter his body, and it would be time for him to seek revenge. He just didn't know if that bastard Gu Tianhua had the courage to accept his revenge.

"Okay, Mom, are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere right now?" Gu Yunzhou's expression was still gentle, and there seemed to be nothing else in his eyes except worry for Qin. Qin thought that her son had listened to her, and she felt a little relieved.

"Mom is fine, I just feel a little weak in my hands and feet!" Qin touched her stomach. Apart from a dull pain, she no longer felt much pain. Instead, her whole body ached, her limbs were weak, and she felt as weak as if she had a serious illness.

"It's okay. Doctor Mo said it's a minor problem. A doctor will come to check you out tomorrow and prescribe some medicine. You'll be back to normal after taking it for a while!"

Gu Yunzhou smiled slightly, trying to reassure his mother. He knew that the most important thing now was to comfort his mother and not let her get too anxious. Then, he picked up the kettle and poured Qin a glass of warm water.
