Over the past few days.
After an extensive search, she finally located a somewhat suitable location.
Gu Chaoyan was in high spirits.
Not only had she succeeded in finding a fitting spot for the paG.o.da, but the nanny had also achieved remarkable progress.
Everything was proceeding smoothly.
She was on her way back today.
Xu Xunnan’s father, Xu Yuanlong, happened to be present.
Upon spotting Xu Xunnan, he halted in his tracks.
“I’ve been providing for you these past few days. Have you considered it?” Xu Yuanlong’s tone held a touch of severity.
If he had a choice.
Xu Yuanlong would prefer for the woman from the Xu family to lack the talent for cultivation.
A woman possessing cultivation potential brought about far too many complications, both for the Xu family and for her.
Without cultivation potential, she would naturally be more pragmatic.
Those gifted in cultivation couldn’t help but harbor unrealistic aspirations.
In Jinwei Land.
Such aspirations were strictly forbidden.
Xu Xunnan was his daughter, and in this lifetime, he harbored few requests. His sole desire was for her to live a peaceful and stable life.
However, this young woman was incredibly tenacious.
The nanny had made repeated efforts to instruct her, but she still appeared uncomprehending.
He did not want to emulate those families that allowed their daughters to wither away within their homes just to safeguard the family’s reputation.
“Nanny brought you out as well. You’ve witnessed the predicament those women face. I believe you’re not foolish and can discern what’s best for you. Xunnan, certain things are predetermined from birth. Living a good life is the wise choice. Once you’ve thought it through, I’ll find you a suitable family for a peaceful marriage. In the future, forget about cultivation,” Xu Yuanlong urged earnestly.
Upon hearing his words…
She began to grasp the essence of the Xu family’s stance.
Xu Xunnan’s father cared for her.
For instance, he understood that the nanny had taken her away. Xu Xunnan’s father evidently didn’t want her to suffer harm. His desire was for her to contemplate her options and lead a contented life, much like the other women who had acquiesced.
Within the Xu family.
Much like other families, they had adhered to Jinwei Land’s conventions for centuries.
Yet, the Xu family exhibited a modic.u.m of compa.s.sion.
Having pieced it all together,
Gu Chaoyan felt even more convinced.
She knew that a confrontation with the Xu family was imminent.
Only by estranging herself from the Xu family could her future actions remain disconnected from the family’s fate.
With this realization in mind,
Gu Chaoyan regarded Xu Yuanlong with a touch of disdain in her gaze. “You’re advising me to abandon thoughts of cultivation; are you attempting to seize my low-level cultivation beads?”
“What an excellent plan.”
“You instructed me not to bring up this matter again and not to request this item. Now, your Xu family can make use of it. Are you trying to chase me away?”
“No way, don’t say a word. Give me back my low-level cultivation bead!” Gu Chaoyan declared vehemently.
Upon hearing her words, Xu Yuanlong was initially taken aback. Then, he regarded Xu Xunnan with disbelief.
Xunnan might be somewhat obstinate and suspicious, but she had never exhibited such behavior. Why was she now contemplating the Xu family and him in this manner?
“Xunnan, I’m doing this for your own good. In Jinwei Land, women are forbidden from cultivating. If you persist in cultivating, you’ll only incur the condemnation of everyone. I cannot return the low-level cultivation beads to you..”
