But why did Dongfang Yu say that it was just a smokescreen?
Could there really be such a deception?
Perhaps it’s possible.
But Gu Qiaoqiao worried that the Buddha Beads were fake and might have something detrimental that could affect Qin Yize.
Just like the Gold Jade Stone Carving she had given to Ning Wanru before.
The backfiring power on it actually caused Ning Wanru, a gentle and beautiful woman who seemed to be in her fifties, to age rapidly within a month.
To some extent, it also reduced Ning Wanru’s fortune.
Causing her to become increasingly unlucky.
So Gu Qiaoqiao worried that Dongfang Yu’s bracelet was a fake...
It might impact Qin Yize’s fortunes.
Even though, he had the Wolf’s Fang she carved for him.
But Gu Qiaoqiao felt that she needed to see it with her own eyes to be at ease.
Lost in such thoughts, she quickly arrived at the entrance of the military base.
The car stopped at another gate of the compound.
Gu Qiaoqiao got out of the car.
This was her first time here.
The guards on duty naturally didn’t recognize her.
And at this moment, Gu Qiaoqiao didn’t even know if Qin Yize was here.
She had come purely on impulse.
And at such a special time, with the relations between the two families so tense, it was impossible for her to call the Qin Family.
And as for Chu Chengfeng and the others, after a barrage of accusing phone calls, they had stopped dealing with her.
So at this point, Gu Qiaoqiao hoped Qin Yize would be here.
Gu Qiaoqiao approached the guard.
She told him she was looking for Doctor Qin.
And she stated her name.
To her surprise, the guard’s eyes lit up.
Then he gave Gu Qiaoqiao a complex look.
It was not one of disdain.
But nonetheless, it was somewhat unfriendly.
Even though the news was suppressed, it had leaked out through certain channels.
They all knew that while Qin Yize was framed and unjustly detained, his young wife divorced him.
There was no need to explain the matter further.
Just the fact that she had divorced him...
They knew this woman must have been worried about being dragged down by Doctor Qin, so she left early.
Why was she now shamelessly seeking Doctor Qin?
However, the guard still suppressed his resentment and went to the guard room to make a call.
After a short wait, a figure appeared in the distance, striding towards them.
Gu Qiaoqiao’s heart initially lifted, but upon a second look, she knew this wasn’t Qin Yize.
Could it be that Qin Yize wasn’t here?
Suddenly, Luh Fei reached Gu Qiaoqiao and opened his mouth as if to call her ’sister-in-law.’
But he felt it might not be appropriate to say it.
So he opened his mouth, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Are you looking for Doctor Qin for something?"
Gu Qiaoqiao looked at Luh Fei and asked softly, "Is Doctor Qin here?"
Luh Fei hesitated, then shook his head and said, "Doctor Qin is not at the base..."
"He’s gone out, how long will he be?"
Gu Qiaoqiao’s brows furrowed involuntarily.
She still didn’t know whether that bracelet was good or bad.
And she obviously couldn’t ask Dongfang Yu.
Dongfang Yu would definitely not give her the correct answer.
On the contrary, he might mislead her.
Gu Qiaoqiao wouldn’t give him the chance to mislead her.
As it turned out, it was indeed the right move.
Not to ask Dongfang Yu was the correct decision.
When asking Dongfang Yu, there was no telling how he might scare Gu Qiaoqiao.
After a moment’s hesitation, Luh Fei spoke with a bit of pity, "He won’t be back until after the Spring Festival."
