Chapter 621: Heaven’s Abandonment (4)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
She knew that Heaven’s Will was re-choosing the daughter of luck.
Heaven’s Will was going to give up on Li Yunrong.
The carving knife in her hand spun agilely between her fingers, and the small blade flashed with a dazzling sharpness under the sun.
Her master had told her that Heaven’s Will in every small world was biased, but at the same time, it was also fair.
Every small world would have a child of luck in every era. Heaven’s Will would give a lot of preferential treatment, because the child of luck would lead the small world to an even more glorious state.
In this small world, Emperor Taizu Chu Jin should be the previous child of luck.
With him, there would be the current Great Jin Dynasty, the peaceful living and prosperity of the citizens, and 50 years of checks and balances between the two countries.
This was the hope of Heaven’s Will for the child of luck.
The deep love of Heaven’s Will was a blessing and, at the same time, a heavy responsibility.
If Heaven’s Will was disappointed in the child of luck and felt that it had chosen the wrong candidate, it wouldn’t have gone all the way. It would have chosen another candidate.
As for the child of luck who had been abandoned by the world, he or she would have to repay how much preferential treatment Heaven’s Will had once given him or her in the future.
Gu Yanfei retracted her gaze and smiled lazily. She picked up the jade ring and gently erased the powder on it with her finger.
She had been choosing this jade material for a long time. It should look very good on his beautiful hand!
“Meow, meow, meow.”
“Susu, Susu, Susu…”
The tree crowns of the few big trees outside the window suddenly swayed quickly, shaking off the fluttering leaves with a rustle. A long-haired three-flowered cat with shining fur leaped out of the tree crown and landed gracefully on the window threshold. Then, it kicked its hind legs and pounced into Gu Yanfei’s arms like a swallow returning to its nest.
“Meow-”
Qing Guang rubbed, licked, and called Gu Yanfei. Its voice was childish and extremely intimate.
Gu Yanfei weighed the cat in his hand. The cat’s stomach was very comfortable to touch. It was soft, furry, and smooth.
“You’ve gotten fatter!” Gu Yanfei said confidently. She grabbed the soft cat belly with one hand and was certain that the cat had gotten fatter.
It also wore an exquisite golden collar on its neck. There were finger-sized cat’s eyes stones embedded, as green as its green eyes.
There were also three red gold bells embedded with rubies hanging on the golden collar.
The round cat face swung, and its white beard trembled. The three exquisite red-gold bells swayed back and forth, but they didn’t make a sound.
It was obvious that the beautiful and cute cat had been raised to be precious. Its days were like those of a fairy.
“Meow, meow, meow!” The cat kept meowing coquettishly, declaring that it had grown up! It was still a little cat!
Gu Yanfei smiled and stroked the cat’s soft and smooth fur. She asked, “Where’s Xia Houqing?”
To be honest, she had almost forgotten that the cat was still with Xia Houqing. And from the looks of it, Qing Guang seemed to be living happily with Xia Houqing.
At the mention of Xia Houqing, the cat was excited. It squatted on her knee and meowed. Its eyes lit up. From its excited appearance, it seemed to be complaining or showing off.
Gu Yanfei couldn’t understand at all.
So be it. Gu Yanfei felt that she had never been someone who asked questions. She carried the cat and walked out, planning to comb its hair.
Its long hair was too messy.
Just as she walked out of the central room, she heard a surprised shout. “Qing Guang!”
Juan Bi returned with the teapot that had just been filled with water in the tea room. She immediately saw the three-flowered cat in Gu Yanfei’s arms, and her eyes lit up.
Juan Bi placed the teapot on the coffee table at the side and looked at the long cat that Gu Yanfei casually carried with his arm. “Miss, don’t hug Qing Guang like this. It’ll feel uncomfortable.”
She hurriedly took Qing Guang over and even demonstrated a “gentle” hug, as if she was carrying a priceless treasure.
Qing Guang meowed in satisfaction and was quite satisfied with her service. She even gave Gu Yanfei a look, meaning to learn well.
The surrounding maids also saw the cat and surrounded it, looking at it in a daze.
“Qing Guang, you’re finally back!”
“I missed you so much. I almost thought you got lost.”
“It’s good that you’re back. Poor Little Qing Guang has lost weight.”
“Yes, yes, the hair is all tied up. Let me comb your hair.”

When the maids saw the cat, they were simply about to go crazy. They all stared at it and asked about its well-being at once. Some went to get cat combs and cat mats, some went to get the dried fish that had been roasted recently, and some ran to the kitchen to get goat milk…
After a while, Gu Yanfei was squeezed into the periphery of the crowd. She didn’t have the luck to “serve” the cat at all.
Why don’t she continue to go back and carve her jade thumb ring? Just as this thought appeared in her mind, she saw a green-robed old woman running hurriedly outside the hall.
“Second Lady, the patriarch is here.” The old woman panted and reported it with a smile..
