Chapter 39 The Broom Star

"My first time drinking alcohol was like this. I thought to myself, 'Is this even drinkable for humans? It's practically horse piss!'"

Gu Panzi was disgusted by her description. "You've drunk horse urine?"

Seeing her serious expression, Tang Wan'er couldn't help but burst out laughing.

She really didn't understand what era this was, how could there still be such a serious person? Especially since she was a young girl who looked about the same age as her.

"Miss, can you not be so serious? It's just a descriptive term, don't take it so seriously. How could I possibly have drunk horse urine? Are you always this earnest?"

Gu Panzi pushed up her glasses. "Actually, I don't like my personality either. Although we just met today, I really envy your energetic and impulsive personality. If I had the courage to be like you, I probably wouldn't be living such a miserable life now."

Tang Wan'er could tell that Gu Pan was just a person with a story, but others could only see the good side and not the sad side.

"Don't think that just because I have a fiery personality, I can live a carefree life. I also have a lot of troubles of my own. But it seems that your troubles are even greater. Why did you go on a blind date with someone like that? Didn't you even check his background before you came?"

Gu Panzi smiled bitterly, picked up the beer and took a sip. Although it still tasted terrible, it didn't seem as hard to swallow as the first sip.

"Of course I know what kind of person the other person is, but I am someone who has no right to choose my future. Actually, I think it's better for you to stay away from me. I've been called a jinx since I was born, and even my own parents disliked me. So over the years, I haven't had any friends."

After hearing Gu Panzi's words, Tang Wan'er became somewhat interested. "A jinx? What happened to you that made your family dislike you so much? But I'm a person who has no taboos, and besides, I'm possessed by a deity, so I'm not afraid of so-called jinxes at all."

Gu Panzi didn't take it seriously, she just smiled bitterly.

"When I was born, my grandparents..."

She suddenly fell seriously ill and then passed away. When I was ten years old, I fell into the river and almost drowned. My brother drowned while trying to save me. Because of this, my parents hated me very much. My brother was their lifeblood. Do you know why my name is Gu Panzi? I didn't know this name originally. It was later that my parents hoped to have another son.

Tang Wan'er despised families that favored sons over daughters. Why should they favor sons when they were all born of the same parents? Who said only boys could inherit the family business?

Moreover, in ordinary families, there is no family business to inherit and carry on the family line. Even an adopted child can have his own surname. He really doesn't understand why some people have such corrupt ideas.

"Your family is quite ridiculous. These things are no one's fault, so why are you trying to shift the blame onto yourself?"

It's unclear whether Gu Panzi has been brainwashed or not, but even she herself feels like a jinx.

"If one thing is a coincidence, what about two or three, ten or twenty? Can they still be coincidences?"
