CHAPTER 297: 297: WHAT THE ELDEST SISTER DID

The previously known events were retold in their entirety, without embellishment, all recounting Gu Tong’s glorious achievements.

Yet such a narrative, when it reached the ears of the higher-ups, was hard to accept...

They could never have dreamt—in their wildest dreams—that they were talking about Gu Tong, rather than a mythical story...

Tricking bandits to walk down the mountain on their own, surely that’s a joke...

However!

They could not deny the truth in their words!

Because those explaining the situation on the scene were all officers of the first class; they were well-versed in military discipline and could not engage in such unlawful acts. So there was only one explanation for the situation—that was the truth!

"You are talking about my daughter..."

Gu Tiancheng’s eyes widened with suspicion. Ever since Xue Zhengyi had come to find him, he had been in a constant state of disillusionment, feeling as though he had raised a counterfeit daughter...

The person they were describing, intelligent, cunning, unpredictable—that was supposed to be his daughter? He wouldn’t believe it even if beaten!

"Gu Wangjue, we are truly not deceiving you..."

"I swear on my medal, every word I said is true..."

"We are just two ordinary civilians, and we don’t know you. What point is there in deceiving you? This really was something your elder daughter did..."

When the explanation concluded, there was yet another round of clarification.

Under the barrage, Gu Tiancheng could no longer disbelieve it. The sole of his shoe slipped from his hand to the floor, and his eyes swiftly scanned the faces of the upper echelons, capturing their equally astonished, horrified, and incredulous expressions!

Seeing their disbelief, he felt a bit more reassured...

The expressions of the higher-ups were constantly changing. They had spent half their lives as trainees, yet had never encountered such a bizarre situation.

But precisely because of this, they understood one thing...

If what they said was all true! Then Gu Tong was indeed a rare talent worth cultivating!

"Old Gu! Look... I told you, Gu Tong is a born Royal Doctor, a born talent. As elders, we can’t delay her future..."

At some point, Xue Zhengping’s tears were already flowing freely, countless tears unable to erode the excitement within his heart. Their Royal Doctor finally had a promising future, a worthy successor...

The Royal Doctor on the battlefield had not only extraordinary medical skills but also was intelligent and wise, filled with strategy and meticulousness, definitely a genius commander with a devilishly brilliant mind!

No wonder she was spotted by Mr. Baili; his keen eyes had long seen through the truth, saw through Gu Tong’s defiant exterior to reach the essence, and unearthed it!

And it had already been foretold early on—Gu Tong’s future path!

Xue Zhengping was overwhelmed with emotion, while Gu Tiancheng felt a mix of emotions.

After all, the person before him was his daughter, not someone else! Believing was hard, yet denying was even harder...

After thinking this through, Gu Tiancheng pursed his lips, and the anger and astonishment receded from his face, replaced by a strand of seriousness. He fixed his eyes on Li Yan and said, "You, come with me!"

"Yes!"

This was something Li Yan had long anticipated. Upon their return, he and his father-in-law were bound to have a talk—this was about Gu Tong’s future, and even more about her life!

Therefore, Li Yan dared not take it lightly!

Almost instantly, the situation on the scene shifted. Father suddenly called Li Yan for a talk, leaving Gu Tong a bit dazed. She almost sprinted to Feng Yi’s side, saying timidly, "Feng Papa, what does my father want to do..."

Feng Yi knew Gu Tiancheng better than anyone, even sometimes better than Gu Mama, so there was no mistake in asking him.

Feng Yi could only smile bitterly, shaking his head with resignation, "You trouble-making girl..."

Beyond that, he said no more.
