Chapter 1026: Gu Yang Received Justice

Editor: Henyee Translations

Xiao Zhengqian chuckled heartily as he saw the admiration in his niece’s sparkling eyes.

Xiao Dingkun, standing nearby, found it hard to watch. Unfortunately, he had never faced such situations himself, as his career was in politics rather than the military.

Gu Yang, ever observant, noticed her father’s slight disappointment. She smiled and said, “Dad, you’ve contributed so much to the country and the people. You’re impressive in your own way.”

Though Xiao Dingkun’s expression remained serious, the corners of his lips curled up slightly.

At that moment, Grandpa and Grandma Xiao approached slowly.

Grandpa Xiao, hands behind his back, began with a touch of nostalgia. “When I was on the battlefield, there were harsh winters, and we often ran out of ammunition and food. I faced enemy cannons and tanks…”

Gu Yang’s eyes lit up. “Grandpa, you’re amazing.”

Grandpa Xiao laughed heartily.

“Sister is also very powerful.”

Just then, Lin Ding opened the door and greeted everyone.

“Grandpa Xiao, Grandma Xiao, uncles, and aunts, happy Mid-Autumn Festival!”

Lin Ran greeted everyone with a smile.

The Xiao family and the Lin family were close friends, and Xiao Yize and Lin Ran were good brothers. It was common for Lin Ran to visit during the holidays.

“What are you doing here?” Xiao Cheng couldn’t hide his irritation, particularly since Lin Ran had recently caused a stir with his sister.

He pulled Gu Yang aside and said, “Sister, this guy is notorious for chasing after girls all over the capital and is the best at spinning tales. Don’t get too close to him.”

Gu Yang found herself both amused and exasperated.

Lin Ran, unfazed, retorted, “Xiao Cheng, I can hear you. Stop bad-mouthing me to my sister. I’ve turned over a new leaf.”

Lin Ran then revealed a pennant he was holding, which read “Doing a Righteous Deed” and bore an official stamp from the capital’s police station.

He smiled and handed the pennant to Gu Yang. “Sister, I came to give you this.”

Gu Yang accepted the pennant with a smile.

Gu Zhaoming suggested to Xiao Dingkun, “You should hang it up at home. Yangyang’s pennant from last time is still displayed at my house.”

Even during their move, Gu Zhaoming made sure to bring the pennant with him.

Xiao Dingkun, having learned from Tong Wan about Gu Yang’s heroism at the mall, nodded with pride. “The spot for the horse painting in the living room is perfect for this.”

Gu Yang declined the offer, hugging the pennant tightly as she hurried back to her room. “I’ll keep it in my room,” she said.

To her, no honor in the Xiao family was more significant than this pennant. After all, everyone else’s honors were tucked away in boxes, hidden from view. She felt it was better to keep this small token for herself, even if it made her a bit embarrassed to display it.

The sight of Gu Yang retreating quickly brought laughter to the courtyard.

Soon, the autumn wind swept through the capital, scattering leaves everywhere.

The online review for Team Blue Whale had wrapped up, and over 20 candidates were selected for the offline interviews. Gu Pei and Qin Xian were among them.

Upon hearing the news, Gu Pei was so excited he couldn’t sleep all night.

“Sister, I heard we might get to meet the Team Blue Whale members during the offline interview! Ahhh, my dream is finally coming true!” Gu Pei was practically bouncing off the walls.

Gu Yang couldn’t help but feel a mix of amusement and exasperation. She exchanged a helpless glance with Gu Jin and Feng Jue.

Unaware of their reactions, Gu Pei continued to bounce around the Gu family living room like an excited puppy. “If I pass the interview, I’ll get to play games with Whale God and the team!”

Gu Jin, lounging lazily on the sofa, looked up. “Then you’d better work hard. There’s only one chance. Miss it, and there won’t be another.”

“Of course, I’ll give it my all! I’ve been studying Team Blue Whale’s tactics lately. If I join, I’ll definitely be able to coordinate with them in the future!” Gu Pei was brimming with confidence.

He then turned to Gu Jin and Feng Jue with a puzzled expression. “By the way, Gu Jin, Feng Jue, aren’t you both good at gaming? Why didn’t you apply to join?”
