In her previous life, her parents died in an accident and her brother was left disabled, making Zhou Zhi live a wretched existence. Starting over in this life, with both her parents alive and her b...
Xu Bai gave a wry smile. Little did his sister know that he wasn't a child in the true sense of the word. It wasn't just because he carried the memories of his previous life, but also because of Xu Di's encouragement and discipline.
Xu Bai knew that his parents had always raised their three children in a very hands-off manner, letting them do whatever they wanted without much interference. However, Xu Bai had always had an older brother who was always in charge of him, especially since this older brother knew that he was also a time traveler, which made him even more unrestrained in his control. Xu Bai didn't think much of it when he was young, always thinking that he was still young. But in the past two years, after traveling around with his brother, Xu Bai realized the true meaning of the phrase "time waits for no one".
Because of Chen Yuyuan's presence in the family, everyone had to be careful and cautious in everything they did. When the situation was about to escalate to the point of life and death, the entire Xu family placed all their bets on Chen Yuyuan. Although Chen Yuyuan was sent to Xu Rao by someone sent by the Emperor, Xu Bai now understood that until the dust settled, no one knew who the real winner would be, and becoming that real winner was not an easy thing.
Xu Bai had also read the famous story of the Nine Princes' Succession Struggle, both overt and covert. In recent years, Xu Bai had experienced a lot himself, and he understood very well that it would be extremely difficult to push Chen Yuyuan into that position.
However, for the Xu family, there is no turning back now. They can only keep their heads down and keep moving forward. In the future, there will be no shortage of assassinations like this night, and there may even be more brutal struggles ahead. All Xu Bai can do now is to work with his family, cutting wood when they encounter mountains and building bridges when they encounter rivers, not only to help Chen Yuyuan find a way out, but also to find a way out for the Xu family.
There was a moment of silence inside. After a long while, Chen Yuyuan's clear and handsome voice said, "Abo, you have done very well."
After a long pause, Xu Bai said somewhat dejectedly, "Whether I do well or not depends on who I'm compared to. A-Yuan, you and your cousins are cousins, so you'll be compared to each other. My eldest brother and I are blood brothers, so whether it's family or outsiders, they'll naturally compare us. I know I'm not as talented as my eldest brother, but if I work hard, I'll always find a path that suits me. In the future, I want people to say, when they talk about the Seventh Master of the Yongning Marquis's Mansion, that this guy is truly a remarkable talent."
