Gu Ningcheng turned her head to look at his sister, probing the authenticity of her words. Gu Ningyou didn’t understand why her brother was looking at her like this, and asked suspiciously, “What’s wrong?”

He withdrew his surveying gaze but his voice sank: “What about Pei Siyuan? You’re already planning to give up?”

 … How come she hears this name everywhere she goes?  

Oh – her brother also knew that she likes Pei Siyuan. Her brother and Pei Siyuan were in the same high school. At the beginning, she and Pei Siyuan officially met each other through the introduction of her brother. In the past few years when she was obsessed with Pei Siyuan, she also asked her brother for help. 

It was just that she and Pei Siyuan have been together not long at this time, so her brother didn’t know yet.

“Yeah, I’ve already…” Gu Ningyou had only just said a few words, but the remaining seemed to have stuck in her throat, and she couldn’t say more.

…What’s the matter with this broken plot?! Just now when she said she didn’t have a boyfriend, it didn’t stop her but now when she wanted to deny that she likes Pei Siyuan, it came out like a phantom? 

Gu Ningcheng looked at her patiently: “Hmm?”  

All kinds of words swirled in her mouth, but she couldn’t say a word. Gu Ningyou finally said: “Doesn’t he like Jiang Yao?”  

Maybe because “Pei Siyuan likes Jiang Yao” was an undeniable fact in the judgment of the plot, but she said it very smoothly.   

She hoped her brother could understand what she really wanted to convey…

 “Xiaoyou, you finally figured it out.” Gu Ningcheng smiled lightly, and once again ruffled her hair, “I heard that Jiang Yao recently went abroad to study. But Pei Siyuan has been in love with Jiang Yao for more than 20 years, and I believe that even if they are not together, it will not affect their feelings.” 

Wasn’t this how it was supposed to be? Pei Siyuan loves Jiang Yao so much. He waited for her for seven years, and finally entered the wedding hall with her successfully. After all, they were the destined male and female protagonists. No matter what happened, they would attain their ultimate happiness.  

Thinking of this unchangeable ending, she didn’t feel sad, so… deep down in her heart, she really doesn’t like Pei Siyuan, right?  

When she was by Pei Siyuan’s side, her emotions and consciousness were always affected by him uncontrollably, but when they were not together, she felt that Pei Siyuan was just an ordinary man, no different from any Zhang San, Li Si or others. Sometimes, she felt that she was unbelievably calm and rational.   

Gu Ningyou didn’t answer any more, but just turned her head and looked to the side. Outside the car window, cars sped by, the scenery changed rapidly, and the road in front of her gradually became familiar. And in the blink of an eye, she saw the direction of home.

The mansions in the rich area are always high-profile and flamboyant, and the villa in front of her is full of luxurious atmosphere, with white walls and red tiles, and even the patterns on the iron gates look exquisite and gorgeous, quite like European architecture. When you open the door and walk in, you can see a small pool in the courtyard, the sound of the fountain falling is clear and pleasant, and the small garden on the side is flourishing with greenery. Every day, servants take care of it regularly, and the bright red roses look beautiful against the setting sun.

This is her home. This scene was also a long time ago in her memory. After her father’s company was attacked in the previous life, he sold almost all the assets of the family, including this mansion, which was worth tens of millions, of course. Unfortunately, he failed to fill the company’s financial loopholes in the end.

 “Xiaoyou, why don’t you go in?” Gu Ningcheng found that his sister was always absent-minded from time to time today. He became worried. “You seem to be in a very bad mood today, is something wrong?”

Brother was always so attentive and could detect her abnormalities in time.   

She shook her head, lowered it to cover the complicated emotions in her eyes, and when she raised her head again, she changed into a look of unawareness: “I’m not unhappy, it’s just that I haven’t been home for a long time, so I’m not used to it.”   

Gu Ningcheng slightly curled his fingers and tapped on her little head, “You also know that you haven’t come back for a long time?”   

Gu Ningyou covered her head and took a step back, “Gu Ningcheng, I’ve told you several times not to hit me like this!”   

The smile in Gu Ningcheng’s eyes deepened a little, and just as he was about to tease her again, the door was pulled open from the inside, blocking the words he wanted to say in his mouth.

“I heard both of you quarreling from inside.” The woman who opened the door glanced at Gu Ningyou, and chided her, “Xiaoyou, didn’t I always tell you not to call your brother by name like that? It is impolite.”  

“Mom—” Gu Ningyou’s voice trailed off, and she came to hold the woman’s arm in dissatisfaction, “Gu Ningcheng is always bullying me, and you take his side every time!” 

Her mother laughed then exposed her: “Do you think I won’t know who is bullying whom? Xiaoyou, you should know your brother is being honest.  

“Okay, okay, I’ll take it as my fault.” Gu Ningyou knew she was in the wrong, mischievously blew her tongue, but did not refute again. She took her mother’s arm and walked inside, “Has dad come home from work too?” 

“Well, he’s there.”  

Gu Ningyou followed the direction of her mother’s finger and looked inside, only to see the man on the sofa put down the newspaper in his hand and looked in their direction, “You’re back?” 

“Dad!” Gu Ningyou didn’t even change her shoes, she ran forward in three two steps and sat next to him, intimately leaning her head on his shoulder, “I miss you so much.”  

Father Gu was surprised by his daughter’s intimacy. Gu Ningcheng saw the embarrassment on his face, and explained calmly: “I don’t know what’s wrong with Xiaoyou today, very clingy, and refused to let go of me when she saw me at the airport.

Gu Ningyou immediately denied: “Who is clingy and won’t let go?”  

“If you say no, then no.” Gu Ningcheng smiled good-naturedly and did not expose her, “Dad, Mom, I’ll go up and put my things away first, then I’ll come down and have dinner with you.” 

      At night, Gu Ningyou lay on the bed in her room, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.   

During dinner just now, she almost couldn’t hold back her tears several times.  

Her brother was in good health, and there was no trouble in the family’s company, her father and mother’s faces were no longer as weathered as in their previous lives and their family could sit together and have a happy dinner like this, which was something she could not imagine even in her dreams in her previous life.   

Since her rebirth, until now, for the first time, she felt very lucky. Although she had suffered a lot in her previous life, those things have finally become the past, and now her family is all well. What she should do is to focus on the present. In this life, she must protect her family and ensure that they are safe, and their lives are smooth and happy.
