One hour later...

Gu Jin drove Gu Qingqing and the others to a hot spring resort on the outskirts of the capital.

She hurriedly got out of the car and ran excitedly to the entrance of the clubhouse like a little sparrow.

"Wow! It's a hot spring! You brought me here to play!"

She loved soaking in hot springs. Before she transmigrated into the book, she lived halfway up a mountain, where there was a hot spring that was just the right size for her family of dozens of people.

However, after transmigrating into the book, there wasn't a single hot spring in the capital, nor any bathhouses or foot massage parlors, but she didn't like going there.

There are only a few hot springs in this small town outside the capital, but it's too far away and a hassle to visit.

"Are you happy, Qingqing?" Gu Mu got out of the car, walked to her side, and put his arm around her shoulder.

"Mmm... I'm so happy. I love soaking in hot springs and eating soft-boiled eggs."

"As long as Qingqing is happy, we'll go in for a hot spring later, and there will be Korean BBQ and sushi to eat. You should eat more."

"Really? Just mentioning barbecue makes me hungry, hehehe... Thank you, Second Brother, Eldest Brother, and Third Brother, for bringing me here."

Gu Qingqing reached out and hugged Gu Mu's waist. Just then, Gu En arrived and forcefully threw away Gu Mu's hand that was on her shoulder, catching him off guard and almost causing him to fall.

"Qingqing, come on, your third brother will take you to eat something delicious."

"Yes, Third Brother is so good to me, thank you Third Brother." Gu Qingqing was pulled into the club by his arm around her waist.

"Gu En, you've gone too far! Qingqing isn't just your sister, give her back to me!" Gu Mu was so angry that her face turned red, and she quickly ran after them.

"Then come and chase us! If you catch us, I'll give Qingqing to you."

"Third brother, I'm not a toy! What are you giving me away for? Second brother, come save me!"

"Qingqing, wait for me! If I don't give Gu En a good beating, I'm not a Gu!"

Gu Jin and Fu Jue got out of the car and walked side by side.

Watching the three of them play around, I shook my head in helplessness. I've gotten used to their antics and craziness. After all, they're still quite young and have outgoing, lively personalities, so their daily playful chasing is inevitable.

"They're often like this; once they start playing, they lose all sense of proportion and become quite crazy. Don't mind them."

Gu Jin was afraid that Fu Jue wouldn't like the three siblings playing like this. After all, he was the world's richest man, and every move he made was elegant and noble. Even his smile was gentle and polite. He probably wouldn't like others acting crazy and disregarding their image.

"Qingqing is very cute. This is what makes her happy. Lately, I've seen her staying at home studying and she seems listless."

Fu Jue turned to look at Gu Jin, a faint smile on his lips.

"Yes! But starting tonight, she can play every day."

"Then let's take her out more often, let her have some fun while she's young, and not waste her youth."

“That’s a good idea. We need to start planning our work arrangements. I’ve been busy with business these past few years and haven’t taken her out to play much. There are really not many good memories I can recall.”

Looking back on the past few years, Gu Jin realized that he did bear an undeniable responsibility for his younger sister's bad behavior during her rebellious phase. Because of his work, he could only spend a few days at home each month, and he had indeed neglected her feelings and growth.

I always thought that having money to buy her gifts would make up for the lack of time I could spend with her.

"Well, if you're really too busy and have a tight work schedule, I can take her out to play." Fu Jue took the opportunity to "extort" her.

"Heh~" Gu Jin didn't say anything more, but stared at Fu Jue and sneered.

This wolf in sheep's clothing has finally shown its true colors.

In the corridor of the club, Gu Mu chased after Gu Qingqing and Gu En.

They attracted the attention of several passing customers and waiters. After all, they were all very good-looking. Although they were not wearing makeup and their clothes were relatively ordinary and low-key, they immediately stole everyone's attention as soon as they appeared.

"Gu En, let's see where you run! Humph! I'm about to catch you." No wonder he's an athlete, he can run so fast even while dragging someone.

Just as Gu Mu was about to catch up with Gu En, he stretched out his hands to grab his clothes.

"If I catch you, I'll give you a pair of panda eyes, no! I should give you a pig's head."

"Don't even think about it! I'm not so easy for you to catch me." Gu En was afraid of being caught by Gu Mu, so in her haste she threw Gu Qingqing out, which hit Gu Mu right in the face.

"Ah! Third Brother, you don't want me anymore!" Waaah... Why am I so pitiful?

How could my third brother abandon me? Luckily, my second brother caught me.

Gu Qingqing pretended to cry, playing games with the two brothers. After running over a hundred meters, her little face was flushed, like a little apple.

"Qingqing, come with your second brother!" Gu Mu was just trying to scare Gu En. Sure enough, he got scared and threw her out, just like he did when they were little.

Gu Qingqing was pulled away by Gu Mu and taken a different path. It wasn't until Gu En realized what had happened that he realized he had just left her with Gu Mu.

"I've been tricked!" That damn Gu Mu, he's using this trick on me again!

Gu En turned around and ran after Gu Mu, bumping into Gu Jin and Fu Jue.

"Stop playing."

"Big brother, it was second brother who wanted to play, not me." Gu En, who was blocked by Gu Jin and unable to leave, directly pushed the blame onto Gu Mu.

Gu Jin didn't say anything, glanced at Gu En, and walked ahead.

"My eldest brother favors my second brother and doesn't care about me at all." Gu En was the one who was beaten and scolded the most since childhood, and he was very unhappy about it.

But because Fu Jue was there, he didn't dare to act recklessly. He obediently followed behind them, head down and listless, like a child who had been forbidden by his parents from playing on his phone, feeling utterly bored with life.

Gu Qingqing was pulled by Gu Mu into a huge luxury room in the club, which could also be described as an independent courtyard villa with four or five guest rooms.

The interior design here is antique and elegant, creating a very atmospheric ambiance, as if you were in an ancient palace.

"Change into your swimsuit, let's go take a bath first." He handed her a bag containing a pink and white one-piece swimsuit.

"Okay, fine!" Actually, she'd rather eat something delicious than soak in the hot spring. She wondered if there would be ice cream and soft-boiled eggs later. Ideally, there would be a pot of sake, sushi, and a fruit salad.

Gu Qingqing took the bag and went into her room. Instead of changing her clothes, she went to the French windows to enjoy the view and happened to see Gu Jin, Fu Jue and the other two coming in through the front door.

They happened to see her too, and they waved and smiled at each other.

"Qingqing, Third Brother is here!" Gu En was very excited, afraid that she would be angry with him for throwing her away earlier.

"Hmph!" She also remembered what had just happened, pretended to be angry and glared at him, then drew the curtains of the French windows.

What should we do about Qingqing? My little sister is really angry, and the consequences could be severe.

Gu En hung her head sadly. It was all Gu Mu's fault.

Hmph! I'll definitely get back at him later.

Gu Qingqing lay on the bed to rest for a while, as she was quite tired after running a long way with Gu En.

After playing on her phone for ten minutes, she got up and took out a pink swimsuit from the bag. Without looking closely at the swimsuit's design, she took it off and put it on.

She didn't even look in the mirror; she simply opened the door and walked into the living room, which was filled with laughter.
