“If I don’t do this, Mom will definitely still be the same as before.” Jiang Anxia didn’t care what her mother said.

As long as there are no regrets, that's fine.

"All I want is for you to be well." Jiang's mother reached out and took Jiang Anxia's hand.

"Mom, look at what you're saying, of course I'll be fine!" Jiang Anxia said softly, trying to coax him.

It was just like before, nothing happened.

"Has anyone from the An family come?" Jiang's mother didn't say anything, but instead started asking about other things.

"Yes, we're on our way." Jiang Anxia nodded gently.

"That's good. Talk to them properly. If they treat you badly after you go back, come back. This will always be your home. I was wrong before." Jiang's mother said seriously, her eyes fixed on Jiang Anxia.

"Okay, I understand." Jiang Anxia nodded heavily, her face full of seriousness.

She knew that her mother still cared about her. Just like before.

"It's good that you know, I won't say anything more." Mother Jiang sighed.

The child has grown up; let her walk her own path from now on! She didn't say anything more.

I've said this so many times already, it's just annoying to repeat it.

Jiang Anxia looked at her mother with red eyes, even her nose was red. There were tears glistening in her eyes.

"Mom, thank you." Jiang Anxia was truly grateful to her mother, who cared for her and thought of her wholeheartedly.

"Silly girl, why are you thanking me?" Jiang's mother reached out and patted Jiang Anxia's head, her tone full of affection.

Silly little girl.

"It's getting late, should we go home or to town?" Jiang's mother asked Jiang Anxia as dusk approached.

"I've already told my third brother An that I'm going back to town tonight. I'm afraid he'll worry if I don't go back." Although Jiang Anxia also wanted to stay, he had already told An Yuxi that he was going back to town tonight when he came.

Since she made the promise, she was determined to keep it.

Hearing what Jiang Anxia said, Jiang's mother was slightly taken aback.

She didn't expect the An family to find Jiang Anxia so quickly.

However, upon further reflection, Jiang's mother realized that this was normal. After all, the An family had no power, and finding Jiang Anxia was only a matter of time; it was just happening sooner rather than later.

"Alright! I won't keep you here, otherwise the road back to town won't be safe." After explaining things clearly, the anger that had been weighing on Jiang's mother's heart disappeared.

“Okay, then I’ll come back to see you later.” Jiang Anxia nodded obediently.

They walked toward Gu Yanzhu and Jiang Nanqiu while talking.

Jiang Anxia said goodbye to her mother and Jiang Nanqiu, then turned and left. Gu Yanzhu quickly followed.

Gu Yanzhu was worried about the little girl having to go back to town so late, so she interrupted Jiang Nanqiu before she could speak.

Finally, Jiang Nanqiu stared intently at Gu Yanzhu, as if she wanted to devour him.

Gu Yanzhu acted as if she hadn't seen Jiang Nanqiu's gaze at all, her expression remaining completely unchanged.

He even smiled at Jiang Nanqiu as he left. This made Jiang Nanqiu grit her teeth even more.

That damn Gu Yanzhu, that's his sister. Why are you standing so close? Get away from me.

Jiang Nanqiu felt like strangling Gu Yanzhu; such a fine cabbage had been wasted by a pig.

It's all his fault for not keeping a close eye on things! (?????＿?????)

Jiang Anxia and Gu Yanzhu turned and left, while Jiang's mother and Jiang Nanqiu stood there watching.

"Mom, Xiaxia and Gu Yanzhu?" With a guess in mind, Jiang Nanqiu wanted to know the answer.

"It's exactly what you think." Mother Jiang smiled slightly and nodded affirmatively.

Jiang Nanqiu felt a pang of pain in her heart upon hearing the affirmative words.

My little sister, whom I've doted on for over ten years, is going to be gone! She's been taken advantage of right under my nose!

"Alright, look at you. Go back now." Jiang's mother rolled her eyes at Jiang Nanqiu, then turned and went home.

Seeing this, Jiang Nanqiu quickly followed behind.

But the sadness in my heart hasn't lessened at all.

Along the way, Jiang Anxia would occasionally walk ahead and then turn around to look at Gu Yanzhu.

But each time, Gu Yanzhu looked at Jiang Anxia with a doting expression and a gentle smile on his lips.

Every time Jiang Anxia turned around, she would see Gu Yanzhu like this.

I was extremely happy.

She found the right person, and he dotes on her.

"Walk slowly, don't fall." Gu Yanzhu looked at Jiang Anxia walking backwards and was worried.

If he falls and gets hurt, I'll be heartbroken.

"I know, it won't happen." Jiang Anxia shook her head slightly and smiled.

Hearing this, Gu Yanzhu smiled helplessly and said nothing. She simply quickened her pace and walked to Jiang Anxia's side.

Since the girl wouldn't listen, he would just be more careful and make sure she didn't get hurt.

Throughout the journey, Gu Yanzhu kept a close eye on Jiang Anxia, ​​afraid that she might accidentally fall.

Once they arrived in town, Gu Yanzhu watched the little girl enter the courtyard before turning around and going to the next house.

His house had been prepared long ago and was just waiting for him.

"Xiaxia, you're back." An Yuxi stood at the kitchen doorway, slurping a bowl of noodles in her hand.

"Hmm." Jiang Anxia nodded, her gaze falling on the bowl of noodles in An Yuxi's hand.

"Xiaxia, have you eaten?" An Yuxi asked with concern when he saw Jiang Anxia looking at his bowl of noodles.

"Not yet." Jiang Anxia gently shook her head.

She wasn't very hungry right now, and didn't feel hungry at all.

"You haven't eaten? I'll go get you something right now." An Yuxi was a little anxious when she heard Jiang Anxia say she hadn't eaten.

What if she goes hungry? She's his only sister! He has to take good care of her.

"No need, no need. I'm not hungry right now, you can eat by yourself. I'll make something for myself when I get hungry later," Jiang Anxia quickly stopped her.

"No, no, I'll get you something to eat first." An Yuxi ignored her completely and turned to go back to the kitchen.

"Third Brother, you can eat by yourself." Jiang Anxia pursed her lips, her face slightly flushed.

"What did you call me?" An Yuxi turned her head in disbelief, her eyes fixed on Jiang Anxia.

"Hahaha, I didn't mishear, you called me Third Brother, you finally called me Brother." If An Yuxi hadn't been holding a bowl, she would definitely be dancing with joy right now.

Jiang Anxia just looked at An Yuxi quietly without saying a word.

She then realized that she hadn't called An Yuxi "brother" in all these days, no wonder he was so happy.

It seems she hadn't thought of that.

"Third Brother, your noodles will get soggy if you don't eat them soon." Seeing that An Yuxi was too happy to pay attention, Jiang Anxia couldn't help but remind him.

"It's okay, it's just a lump. Nothing compares to you calling me 'brother' right now." An Yuxi smiled foolishly.

He was genuinely happy; this was the first time Jiang Anxia had called him "brother" since they had reunited.

This means that his efforts over the past few days have not been in vain, and the girl is gradually accepting him.
