Reaching Gu Xing's room, Gu Rong raised her hand and knocked on the door, calling out, "Han Jianshu, are you still in there?"

Han Jianshu, who was in the room, was startled when he heard Gu Rong's voice.

Then he shook his head and chuckled softly: 'I still couldn't dodge it.'

She got up, opened the door, and asked casually, "What's wrong?"

"Let's go inside and talk," Gu Rong said, pushing Han Jianshu into the room. After looking around to make sure no one was there, she went in herself and locked the door behind her.

Then she turned around, crossed her arms, and looked at the somewhat bewildered Han Jianshu: "I haven't been able to remember how you got here. And what did you feed me while I was unconscious? Who exactly are you?"

Hearing Gu Rong ask this, Han Jianshu knew he couldn't avoid it anymore. He smiled and raised an eyebrow: "Weren't you asleep? How did you know I fed you?"

As Han Jianshu spoke, Axi seemed to feel a chill and was so frightened that she clung to Gu Rong's shoulder, too afraid to move.

Gu Rong was also taken aback when she heard Han Jianshu ask this question.

But when she heard that he didn't deny it, Gu Rong had her own plans. She then calmed herself down and said, "I was in a daze at the time, but I was still conscious. I..."

Han Jianshu smiled and pointed to Axi on her shoulder: "Really? I thought it was that little thing on your shoulder who told you!"

Originally, it was just a suspicion, but after hearing Han Jianshu's words, it was considered certain: "You can really see him?"

Although Gu Rong's words were asked in a questioning tone, the words she spoke were made with certainty.

Hearing Gu Rong's words, Han Jianshu smiled: "Of course I can see it, and not only can I see it, but I can also..."

Han Jianshu gently raised his hand, and Axi flew towards him.

Ah Xi floated in mid-air, realizing she couldn't control her body at all, and slowly drifted towards Han Jianshu. Terrified, she screamed, "Ah~~ Let me go, let me go, Rong Bao, save me, save me!"

Seeing Ah Xi's terrified expression, and then looking at Han Jianshu's smiling, deliberately smug look, she couldn't help but say, "Alright, stop scaring it. First, explain who you are."

"I am who I am, Han Jianshu and Chu Jianshu are both me," Han Jianshu obediently withdrew his hand.

Ah Xi, who had been crying and begging for help, was surprised when he actually let go. She was caught off guard and fell to the ground. She only realized what was happening when she was about to hit the ground and immediately returned to her space, afraid that she would be controlled by Han Jianshu again.

Seeing his evasive explanation, Gu Rong's expression changed: "You know, that's not what I meant."

Han Jianshu sat on the stool and touched the birthmark on his wrist: "That's all I can say. Just know that I'm not disgusted by you. After all, I really like you and I'm waiting for you to marry me!"

Judging from his expression, you can tell he won't say anything useful.

Although he always liked to tease her with his words, Han Jianshu had indeed been helping her since their first meeting and had never harmed her.

Moreover, their presence here must be connected in some way. Even if Han Jianshu doesn't say anything, he can probably find out something by asking Axi when they get back.

Gu Rong immediately decided not to ask: "Fine, I won't tell you then," and turned to leave.

I thought Gu Rong would interrogate me like this... but I didn't expect her to just leave.

Han Jianshu got up and walked over, grabbing Gu Rong's arm: "Don't you want to ask again? Maybe if you ask me again, I'll tell you."

"Oh~~ I'm suddenly not interested anymore," Gu Rong tried to pull her hand away, but the little girl was no match for Han Jianshu's strength.

She looked down at Han Jianshu's hand, then looked up at him, signaling him to let go quickly.

Han Jianshu suddenly smiled, released Gu Rong's hand, and then reached out to rub her head: "You are really different from before."

"What do you mean by 'same' or 'different'? I've always been like this, okay?" She raised her hand to brush the hand off her head, glared at Han Jianshu, and then turned and left the room.

Watching Gu Rong's departing figure, Han Jianshu stared at her for a long time without looking away.

Only after the other person was out of sight did Han Jianshu turn away, sit down on a stool, and touch the birthmark on his wrist.

It was as if they were having a conversation: "Will it really succeed this time? I can wait, but can you endure it...?"

Axi, who was forced to stay outside the door by Gu Rong to observe Han Jianshu, could only see Han Jianshu's mouth opening and closing, but could not hear anything.

Although he wanted to get closer to observe, Ah-Xi thought that the other party could control him, so he only dared to timidly peek through the crack in the door, not daring to move even a centimeter more.

After leaving, Gu Rong did not return to her room, but went to the study.

I stood at the door and listened for a while, but there was no sound inside. I knocked on the door, but no one answered.

Just as she was about to push open the door to the study, Rong Xin's voice came from behind her: "Rong Bao, are you looking for your grandfather? He's not in the study."

Gu Rong turned around, took Rong Xin's hand, and asked, "Yes, Mom, do you know where Grandpa went?"

“He took your three uncles out and they won’t be back until around dinner time,” Rong Xin said, squatting down and picking Gu Rong up.

Seeing that her complexion was much better, I couldn't help but pinch her little cheek: "Is there still any discomfort? Do you want to sleep a little longer?"

Gu Rong shook her head: "No need, Mom. I'm in great spirits right now and not sleepy at all."

As she spoke, her gaze fell on the courtyard, and only then did she realize that apart from herself, Rong Xin, and Han Jianshu who had come to visit, no one else was home: "Where are my brothers?"

Looking at the empty courtyard, Rongxin couldn't help but feel a little sad.

The three sisters-in-law were reluctant to leave their parents' home, but they were even more reluctant to leave their children.

Moreover, staying means the future is uncertain, so it's better to cut ties with family and leave to avoid causing them trouble.

But how could we possibly let go of such a long-standing relationship? So we decided to have a good get-together before we parted ways, since we don't know when we'll see each other again.

It's normal that my sister-in-law was the only one leaving her family home, as she was reluctant to part with them, but she still had other family members with her.

She stayed this time, while all her other family members left, leaving her homeless.

Thinking of this, Rong Xin's nose suddenly stung with tears, but looking at Gu Rong in her arms, she felt a little more at ease. At least she still had her child and a small family.

With a forced smile, Rong Xin pointed to the takeout: "Your older cousin and the others went to Grandma's house. Xiao Xing, Sheng Yan, and Sheng Yi went out to play. Rong Bao, do you want to go? I'll carry you over to find them."

"Okay, Mom, tell me where they are, and I'll go find them," Gu Rong said, secretly hoping to leave something behind before they left.
