At this moment, Gu Lianyi cried like a child.
Even though she was a few years older than me at this point in time, she gave me a pitiful look.
But her words did indeed bother me a bit.
Are you scared?
I'm not afraid.
Even if the Xu family believes Gu Cheng's words and comes looking for me, so be it.
Their arrival is simply due to a change in the timeline at which they found me in my previous life.
As long as I'm here, they'll find me sooner or later.
So I don't care.
I'm more interested in Gu Cheng.
Gu Cheng is a true businessman, a businessman who will stop at nothing to make a profit, and he has completely different methods from the Xu family's man.
As far as I know, the Xu family started from scratch, but they also had some luck involved. This is why, in my previous life, I gradually took over some of the Xu family's important businesses a few years after I was taken in, because at that time, the Xu family's leader had already felt his own limitations.
Gu Cheng, however, was completely different.
At least to my sense, it still feels somewhat dangerous, which is probably why Wang Tianfang was so polite to Gu Cheng.
Seemingly seeing that I didn't answer, Gu Lianyi wiped away her tears and looked at me, whispering, "Xu Ruo, are you angry with me?"
I snapped out of my reverie, smiled, and shook my head, saying, "No, I just think you're kind of cute."
"It's also a bit silly."
Gu Lianyi glared at me. "You can still laugh."
"Do you know that you are in danger right now?"
"How dangerous could it be? They're not going to kill me, are they?" I said dismissively.
Gu Lianyi sniffed slightly, then sighed and said, "You wouldn't understand."
"In short, I won't hurt you."
"If you're worried about the Yan family, I can assure you I'll take good care of them..."
"Lianyi." I looked at Gu Lianyi seriously. "Has anyone ever told you that you're silly?"
"No." Gu Lianyi shook her head subconsciously, but quickly realized what she meant, and punched me with red eyes, "Do you think I'm stupid?"
"Isn't that right?" I said with a smile. "Since your dad can't take my life, what do I have to be afraid of?"
"Just because he's going to send me to the Xu family to be their son, does that mean I have to run away?"
"Isn't that unnecessary?"
“But…” Gu Lianyi wanted to say something, but then she seemed to remember something, and her gaze towards me suddenly became complicated. “Has my father already told you about this?”
I nodded.
"You agreed?" Gu Lianyi looked at me.
I didn't answer, and got off the car with a smile.
Gu Lianyi got out of the car.
"Xu Ruo, have you really agreed?"
I smiled and looked at her. "What do you think?"
Gu Lianyi hesitated for a moment, then smiled and said, "It's normal for you to agree."
"If you agree, you will soon be the eldest young master of the Xu family."
"At that time, you can have whatever you want."
"Anyone would make that choice."
"Gu Lianyi." I walked towards Gu Lianyi. "Do you think I'm that kind of person?"
Gu Lianyi was taken aback.
I looked across the entire street and said, "You know what?"
"My current goal is to develop this street into the way I envision it."
"After that, it's the entire coastal area."
"Then it's the whole country, and even overseas."
“But…” I looked at Gu Lianyi, “I have to rely on myself.”
"If I can't do it, then I'm incompetent."
"But I will definitely do it!"
I said firmly.
Gu Lianyi stared at me blankly.
It took her a while to laugh.
"Xu Ruo".
"I discovered..."
"I'm growing to like you more and more, my little brother."
