Chapter 238: I Will Cultivate Him Myself

Consciousness returned to reality.

Yang Fan slowly took off his virtual helmet.

In the courtyard.

Gu Le was sitting on a swing, gently swinging her legs while humming an unknown little tune.

She was basking in the sun while slowly eating a spiritual fruit, looking incredibly relaxed.

Seeing Yang Fan, Gu Le's eyes lit up. "Husband, you've come out."

After saying this, she trotted over and very naturally hugged Yang Fan's arm.

Yang Fan sighed softly.

The knowledge taught by Big Sister Liu Ruyan was indeed formidable.

But it seemed… one shouldn't learn it too intensely.

The women raised by these great Families.

When they were smart, they were terrifyingly shrewd, but when they were lovesick, they were overly absurd.

Yang Fan naturally understood in his heart that although Third Elder Gu Xuanting was always joking, he was not without the intention of reminding him.

As a father, worrying about his daughter falling too deep was only human nature.

Of course, these were all just minor matters.

Now, he was not just someone Third Elder Gu Xuanting was focusing on cultivating.

Looking at the entire younger generation of the Gu Family, he could also be called a top contender.

There would always be games between biological parents and children, and naturally, the same applied to fathers-in-law and sons-in-law.

Helping you is because interests align.

Guarding against you is because it is human nature.

Relationships between people were never just black and white.

Many relationships inherently involved both caution and trust existing simultaneously.

Gu Le tilted her head, looking at the dazed Yang Fan. "Husband, what are you thinking about?"

Yang Fan regained his senses and rubbed her head.

"Nothing, I just suddenly felt that your father was right."

Gu Le blinked. "What did my father say?"

Yang Fan smiled. "He said to let me treat you better."

Gu Le's eyes immediately curved into crescents, and she hugged Yang Fan's arm even tighter.

"Actually, you are already very good."

Yang Fan: "…"

At this moment, he suddenly understood a bit why Third Elder Gu Xuanting was worried.

How could such a shrewd heaven-blessed daughter suddenly become lovesick!

Besides wanting to use Gu Le to pull in more investment, Yang Fan didn't have any bad intentions.

Otherwise, thinking back to those meaningful words from Third Elder Gu Xuanting just now, he would probably have to slap himself twice.

It was one thing to be a kept man.

But if he were to also deceive someone else's daughter… that would be a bit inhumane.

…

"By the way."

Yang Fan spoke up suddenly.

"Does your God's Kingdom lack anything recently?"

Gu Le blinked. "Why are you suddenly asking this?"

"My God's Kingdom recently phased out a batch of buildings, about ten thousand Penglai Island units. If you need them, I'll give them to you."

Hearing this, Gu Le's eyes clearly brightened.

Although she didn't need these buildings, but… this was the first time Yang Fan had taken the initiative to give her something.

"No."

Gu Le shook her head with a smile.

"My God's Kingdom is developing quite well, and I have my own system of blessed lands."

"Putting these wonders on my side, other than exchanging for divinity points, doesn't have much use."

Speaking of this, Gu Le gently nudged Yang Fan.

"You should sell them yourself. When you get stronger in the future, send me something better."

Hearing this, Yang Fan didn't insist further.

After all, Gu Le was the apple of the eye of the Third Elder of the Gu Family, and her starting point was too high.

A building like Penglai Island might be a supreme treasure to others, but to her, it was probably just taking up space.

However, seeing Gu Le look obviously much happier.

Yang Fan suddenly felt that sometimes, when it came to giving gifts, the important thing was never the item itself.

…

Returning to his room, Yang Fan's consciousness sank into his God's Kingdom.

On the other side, Gu Le picked up her virtual helmet and entered the Virtual World.

Soon, Lu Qinglan appeared in front of her.

"Mom, what is it?"

Lu Qinglan looked at her daughter, remaining silent for a moment before speaking slowly.

"Recently, every time your father sees me, he talks about you and Yang Fan."

"It's true that you are husband and wife, but the development of the God's Kingdom is the foundation."

"Daughter, you understand what Mother means, right?"

Gu Le nodded.

"Don't worry."

"Do you think your daughter would be lovesick?"

Lu Qinglan raised an eyebrow. "Then what is this recently?"

Gu Le leaned back gently in her chair.

"Because he is worth it."

"Your daughter wants the best of everything."

"I want the best resources, the best companies, and marriage… naturally, the same."

She paused for a moment, her voice gradually becoming serious.

"At first, I just thought his talent was worthy of me and he could help Father share the pressure."

"But later I realized, I seemed to have underestimated him."

"His growth speed even reminds me of Father when he was young."

"For this kind of person, a mere contract is not enough."

Gu Le slowly raised her head.

"I want to be true husband and wife with him, just like Father and Mother."

"Sharing weal and woe, bound in life and death."

Lu Qinglan listened quietly without interrupting.

Gu Le continued: "Husband started from humble beginnings. After coming to Taichu City, he was very cautious about everything."

"On the surface, he looks like a rising star."

"But in reality, he wraps himself up too tightly."

"He has no malice toward me, just… more of it is still utilization."

Hearing this, Lu Qinglan's brows furrowed slightly.

Gu Le, however, smiled. "But he changed quite a bit today; at least he was willing to take the initiative to give me something."

"Although…"

Gu Le paused for a moment and added softly.

"A bit stingy."

Lu Qinglan: "…"

Gu Le put away her smile, her expression gradually becoming serious.

"Mother, rather than looking for someone without flaws."

"I prefer a challenge."

"The person I like, I hope he likes me too."

"I want to change him, so he doesn't have to be cautious about everything he faces."

"Make him more decent, more magnanimous."

"Let him truly integrate into the upper class, and one day, even become a big shot who dominates the life and death of countless people."

The corners of Gu Le's mouth curled up slightly, but her eyes were terrifyingly serious.

"My man, I will cultivate him myself."

Hearing this, Lu Qinglan felt both relieved and couldn't help but frown.

"You girl, why is your mind so heavy?"

"Aren't you afraid that Yang Fan will find out later?"

Gu Le, upon hearing this, just smiled.

"Why should I be afraid?"

"I didn't lie to him."

"Besides… I do all this for his own good."

"Isn't it?"

…

Inside Yang Fan's God's Kingdom, time passed rapidly under the Evolution Talent.

But the entire world had already undergone earth-shaking changes.

Above the sky, a towering Heavenly Court hung high, and countless Immortal Qi descended from the Nine Heavens.

At the center of the Mechanical Civilization.

The pure white statue of the goddess of wisdom emitted a faint radiance, and countless torrents of data flickered in the Void Realm.

The three paths of Cultivation, Martial Arts, and Mechanical.

Seemed to have pressed the acceleration button simultaneously.

At this moment, Yang Da was standing in front of Yang Fan to report.

"Master, according to the latest statistics, the number of believers at the Foundation Establishment Stage has nearly doubled compared to a hundred years ago in the God's Kingdom."

"The number of believers at the Martial Master stage has increased by more than 50%."

"The birth efficiency of Second-Class intelligent life has increased by about two times."

"Besides this…"

Yang Da's voice paused slightly, and a hint of excitement appeared in his eyes.

"The Mechanical Civilization has begun to attempt to design Second-Class Intelligent Weapon."
