“A few more instruments need to be imported from overseas. It will take a few days for them to arrive.

As for the compartments on the wall for storing medicinal herbs, I don’t know what specific herbs you need, so I only ordered some that might be frequently used.

For the remaining empty compartments, you can give me a list of the herbs you need, and I will have them ordered.

We have also had the temperature-controlled harvest system on the third floor modified.

Originally, I thought this place was a bit small and planned to find a larger space to convert into a research laboratory for you.

But the suitable places are too far from here, and it would be inconvenient for you to travel.

Here, you are welcome to come anytime with your ideas.”

He was usually a man of few words, even during negotiations, he relied more on his presence.

It was rare for him to speak so much at once.

Lu Miao turned her head and looked at him, speaking seriously, ” You don’t have to be like this. I came to the Gu family because I wanted to make use of you. You don’t owe me anything. If it’s for what happened today, it’s even more unnecessary. I understand that everything Grandma did was for you, for the Gu family.”

This gift was too precious, not just in terms of its monetary value, but also because of the weight of the sentiment it represented!

Gu Shiyan smiled, “I’m giving you these not because I feel indebted to you, but simply because I want to give them to you.”

Originally, he had planned to wait until Lu Miao’s birthday in a few days to give her these gifts, but he wanted to make his little friend happy today, so he took them out first.

Lu Miao did indeed like them, and he was right, this place was close to her, making it very convenient for her.

After thinking for a moment, Lu Miao took out her phone, preparing to transfer the money to him.

Gu Shiyan seemed to have guessed her thoughts and chuckled lightly, saying directly, “As someone who is on the brink of death, whether I can survive tomorrow is unknown. To me now, money is just a bunch of numbers. Consider it a way to make use of useless funds, and don’t think too much about it.”

Lu Miao frowned.” You’ll be fine.”

Seeing her frown, Gu Shiyan smiled.

It seemed that the little girl no longer treated him with that eternal expressionless face and indifference when it came to him.

It looked like the money was well spent.

“Alright, I trust you.”

After taking Lu Miao to the temperature-controlled planting system on the third floor, he didn’t know exactly what she needed to cultivate, so he bought all the herbal seeds he could find and neatly placed them on a table in the corner.

Most of the indoor plantation was done hydroponically.

Lu Miao reached out and lightly tapped the water tank, causing ripples to appear on the calm surface.

Gu Shiyan stood behind her, looking at her with a smile in his eyes.

“The door code is your birthday. You can come here anytime. It’s getting late, so go back and rest.”

Lu Miao nodded.

As the two of them hadn’t reached Building 7 yet, they saw from afar a furtive figure clumsily climbing up the drainage ditch along the outer wall.

Gu Shiyan squinted his eyes, bent down, and picked up a small stone from the ground.

“Wait.”

Before Lu Miao could reach out to stop him, Gu Shiyan had already thrown the stone directly at the figure.

That figure let out a low cry as they were hit, and thumped down from the wall into the grass below.

Then they quickly climbed up from the ground and angrily exclaimed, “Who is it? What kind of skill is it to launch a surprise attack? If you have the guts, come out and fight me one-on-one!”

“It’s me, any problem with that?” Gu Shiyan walked elegantly towards this side.

Gu Jinxi followed the voice and touched his nose, pouting, “Second brother, you really have no sense of martial arts etiquette. You didn’t even give a warning before throwing a stone.”

“I don’t need to give you a warning,” Gu Shiyan replied directly.

Gu Jinxi immediately ran over in a pitiful manner and brought his head close to Lu Miao, complaining, “Sister-in-law, look, my head is almost shattered.”

Lu Miao was speechless.” Who asked you to climb the wall in the middle of the night instead of sleeping at home?”

“But I have to come to support my sister-in-law,” Gu Jinxi said matter-of-factly while rubbing his head.

He couldn’t do anything to his grandmother, but he could stand by Lu Miao’s side and support her.

The three of them were originally standing in an inconspicuous place on the roadside. The moon was obscured by clouds, and there were tall trees casting shadows, making it hard to notice them at all.

Just as they were talking, another figure sneaked over and approached the entrance of Building 7.

He sneakily reached out and keyed in the password to the door lock. After entering it twice, he realized that the password was wrong and could not be opened. He glanced at the wall at the side, turned around, and grabbed the pitiful sewer pipe, preparing to climb up.

Gu Shiyan…

Gu Ziheng…

Lu Miao…

Could it be that climbing the wall was an outstanding tradition of the Gu family?

The corners of her lips twitched.

“Enough, stop climbing.”

She stepped forward and entered the password on the door.

The incident this time was caused by Gu Jinxi and the others insisting on staying with her here, so she had indeed changed the door code when she returned. It wasn’t because she was afraid of Grandma Gu, but simply because she found it troublesome.

She was used to being casual and carefree, and she always disliked trouble.

But she couldn’t use ordinary means to deal with Grandma Gu, so she could only target Gu Jinxi and the others, hoping that after they couldn’t get in, they would voluntarily return to the Gu family.

Who would have thought that these few people were completely oblivious!

Gu Ziheng had a very laid-back personality and never felt embarrassed. When he heard Lu Miao’s voice, he happily called out “Sister-in-law” and immediately jumped down, following Lu Miao into the house with bouncy steps.

The few of them sat down on the sofa in the living room, with Lu Miao at the center.

Lu Miao rubbed her forehead with a headache. She knew that they were expressing their dissatisfaction with Grandma Gu through their actions and supporting her.

However, she lightly tapped on the table in front of her.

“Do you guys realize that you’re drawing hatred towards me?”

Gu Ziheng and Gu Jinxi stared at each other, pretending they didn’t hear anything.

Lu Miao was speechless. “No more climbing walls. Go back to the Gu residence right away.”

After all the efforts Grandma Gu made to keep them here, these few individuals couldn’t even stay for one night.

Lu Miao arrived home, and they followed right after her.

If others didn’t know better, they would think she purposely called them secretly and asked them to leave.

Tomorrow morning, when Grandma Gu discovers that they sneaked out at night, she’s going to be furious.

Just thinking about it gave her a headache.

“Sister-in-law, I still have several questions that I don’t understand. I’m counting on you to explain them to me. The monthly exams are coming up, and you can’t just let me end up as the last in the class, right?”

Gu Jinxi shamelessly took out a set of practice questions from his backpack and placed them on the table.

Lu Miao looked at the blank spaces on the practice questions, her temples throbbing, then turned to Gu Ziheng. “You wouldn’t need me to explain questions to you too, right?”

Gu Ziheng raised his hand and coughed a few times, covering his mouth, pretending to have a sore throat.

“Cough, cough, cough. Sister-in-law, my throat has been bothering me lately.

Do you think I should take some medicine?”

Gu Shiyan, who was beside them, preemptively covered his chest without waiting for Lu Miao to respond.

Lu Miao’s temples pulsed rapidly. Well, all of them suddenly became weak and feeble, huh?

She took a deep breath in her heart..
