She Live Streams Modern Life to Ancient People After Failing to Conquer the Emperor

Chapter 222

"What should we do now? Is that grandmother real? If she is, it might be difficult to attack the city."

"......."

Zhou Qichen felt that Gu Sang had been treated very unfairly.

Back then, Gu Sang had risked her life time and time again to help Pei Changying ascend to the throne as Emperor. Zhou Qichen had witnessed it all.

Even though Gu Sang's true intention was to return to the future, she had still risked her life to help Pei Changying. How could he be so heartless as to use Gu Sang's grandmother as a threat?

What kind of deep love was this?

What kind of affection?

Is this what love is supposed to be?

General Qin patted Zhou Qichen's shoulder and sighed:

"I'm glad I switched sides. Otherwise, the dog Emperor's behavior would have disgusted me to death."

"When I think back to how I used to devote myself to serving Pei Changying, I feel like slapping myself twice."

The Elder Princess furrowed her brow, her eyes cold and stern: "Pei Changying has already turned Gu's grandmother into his lifeline. He will surely guard her closely and not allow anyone to approach her."

"Instead of wasting time being angry here, why don't you two think about how to rescue Gu's grandmother?"

?Ding!?

?Connection established!?

Gu Sang's face appeared on the screen before the three of them.

They could see her sitting at a desk covered with papers, apparently planning something. She looked at the Elder Princess and the other two, and said: "Wei Qi, I can now confirm that my grandmother is indeed in ancient times."

"But I'm not sure if the one Pei Changying has captured is actually my grandmother."

"Wei Qi, you don't need to worry about me. I won't be connecting with you for a while."

"You shouldn't feel burdened when attacking the city."

"I believe my grandmother won't be so easily subdued! Pei Changying may be able to use her to threaten me, but as long as you stay resolute, he won't be able to threaten you."

The Elder Princess immediately shook her head and said: "Sang Sang, actually, our troops have been marching and fighting all the way here without much rest. They're quite tired."

"I think it might be better to take this opportunity to let them rest and recuperate. I'll send people to investigate. If it turns out to be false, then all is well. If it's true, I will definitely rescue her."

"Don't worry, we'll surely come up with a solution that satisfies everyone."

Gu Sang didn't say anything more, just nodded, "Alright, then I'll trouble you with this!"

Bzzt—

Gu Sang closed the connection.

From the moment Pei Changying used her grandmother to threaten her, Gu Sang had decided to return to ancient times.

After negotiating with the System, it decided to grant Gu Sang one month to bring her grandmother back.

After all, it was the System's fault that her grandmother had been mistakenly sent to ancient times, so it had to make amends!

Gu Sang opened the compensation package sent by the System. Inside was a backpack that could hold many things. According to the System's explanation, anything placed in this backpack could be taken back to ancient times.

This meant that instead of the original three items, she could now bring a whole backpack full of things.

Besides the space-time backpack, the package also included an electromagnetic pistol, a solar-powered high-power flashlight, and an electric baton—a set of three items for self-defense.

Gu Sang quickly read through the instructions. The self-defense set had an ownership recognition feature, meaning that if Gu Sang accidentally lost them, no one else could use them except her.

The only downside was that this package was one-time use only, meaning it would disappear once Gu Sang left.

Gu Sang first called her advisor to ask for leave, then called a few friends to let them know she would be going abroad for a while, telling them not to worry.

Finally, Gu Sang called Gu Qing.

The call was quickly answered, and Gu Qing's cheerful voice came through the phone.

Gu Qing was sitting on the sofa, legs crossed, scrolling through videos of handsome young men with washboard abs: "Well, well, you bad girl, how come you have time to grace me with your presence?"

"Make it quick, my abs-flaunting hottie is about to start his livestream."

Gu Sang chuckled: "I'll be going abroad for a while, and my phone might be unreachable. Don't worry, I'll contact you when I get back."

Upon hearing this, Gu Qing sat up straight.

Gu Qing: "What the hell, Gu Sang, going abroad? Where to? Thailand or somewhere up north? You haven't been scammed, have you? Isn't there a popular scam going around about 'cute little princesses' inviting people to some place or another?"

"Where exactly are you planning to go? Just thinking about it sounds dangerous. Let me go with you. I can be your bodyguard, your translator, and your wallet. Taking me along is like having an all-in-one housekeeper."

"And is there a guy involved? It's not your boyfriend, is it? You haven't even been back to the Gu family, and you're not an only child. My parents aren't dead yet, and it's not time for you to inherit anything. How come someone's already got their eye on you?"

"......."

Gu Sang's mouth twitched a few times.

What kind of videos had Gu Qing been watching these days?

She suddenly understood why Gu Qing was so resistant to marriage.

After watching all those videos about wife murders and domestic violence cases from recent years, the rich young lady Gu Qing had immediately become enlightened about the ways of the world, only wanting to hold onto her family fortune and live out her life.

Gu Sang sighed: "What on earth are you thinking about?"

"Don't worry, this is an activity organized by the school. I've signed up to participate in a study program. You might not be able to contact me because the signal might not be good."

"Just keep this to yourself, no need to tell Uncle Gu and Aunt Gu."

Gu Qing rolled her eyes: "If you want me to keep it a secret, that's fine, unless you take me with you."

Gu Sang was firm: "No negotiation. That's it, I'll see you when I get back."

After a moment's thought, Gu Sang softened her tone and said: "Be good, listen to me. I'm hanging up now!"

After the call was hung up, Gu Qing felt a surge of happiness.

Gu Sang actually called her good!

Gu Sang actually used such a gentle tone to tell her to be good.

And Gu Sang was going abroad but still thought to call her specifically to let her know. Didn't this mean that she held some place in Gu Sang's heart?

Otherwise, why would Gu Sang think of her?

Thinking of this, Gu Qing felt that her mission had arrived. She must help Gu Sang keep this secret from her parents.

When Gu Sang returns from abroad, she would surely praise her for being clever.

Meanwhile, Gu Sang began preparing the things she needed to take back to ancient times. She bought two lighters, then went to the pharmacy to buy medicines: anti-inflammatory drugs, amoxicillin, erythromycin, penicillin, glucose, cold medicine, cough syrup, thermometers, and so on. She packed some of each to take back.

Then she went to the market and bought seeds for vegetables, corn, fertilizer, rice, and other crops. Only then did Gu Sang take a taxi home with all her packages.

Apart from packing a couple of pieces of bread and a bottle of water, everything else in the backpack was for emergencies and to leave for the Elder Princess.

Gu Sang put on a set of sportswear and shouldered her backpack.

Finally, she took out her phone and looked at Lu Mufei's contact page. In the end, she sighed: "Forget it, Gu Qing will let him know."

"Some things are fine when left unspoken, but once revealed, it's better not to leave any room for illusions."

Gu Sang lowered her eyes and put her phone in her bag.

Then she took a deep breath and said: "System, I'm ready!"
