☆, Chapter 1: Traveling Through a Book
Bang--
The sound of the vase breaking startled Gu Ran back to her senses. She looked up at the center of the living room, and the chaotic memories and thoughts that flooded into her mind became clear for a moment.
Just now, she traveled into a book, into a novel she had just read.
This is a group portrait novel called "Prosperity and Splendor". The plot can be said to be very bloody, with family matters and family struggles among the rich. It became a hit on the website once it was published, and the copyright was later bought and prepared to be adapted into a TV series.
Gu Ran is a little-known screenwriter who graduated from the Department of Literature. He followed his teacher to take over the task of adapting the script.
In order to make the plot good, she read the original work all night long, but only read half of it all night long. Then she died suddenly while brushing her teeth in the early morning, and in the blink of an eye she was transported into this novel.
The way the original owner of this body died was also speechless.
The original owner had just heard a quarrel downstairs and wanted to see what was going on, but accidentally fell down the stairs and died.
The fall frightened the Gu family members who were on the verge of a fight in the living room downstairs. They all gathered over without caring about the argument.
Gu Ran got up by holding the stair handle. He was fine, not even a scratch on his skin.
The Gu family breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that she was fine, but then they continued arguing.
At this time, Gu Ran received the original owner's memory.
The good news is that she turned into the youngest daughter of a wealthy family. She has two older sisters, two older brothers, and her father and mother all dote on her.
Although the original owner had intellectual disabilities since birth and even had some problems speaking, the Gu family did not dislike her at all. Instead, they cared for her and loved her even more.
Gu Ran can finally escape from being a social slave and live a life without worries about food and clothing.
The bad news is that this life may not last long - the Gu family is the villain in the original novel, and all the family members who have been good to her will not have a good end in the future.
Gu Ran, the youngest daughter, ended up living on the streets because her family went bankrupt and was adopted by a welfare institution.
"Gu Lan, I will never agree to you being with this man!" Not far away, Gu's father roared angrily, with rare excitement.
"Gu Lan, do you know what you are doing? Are you going to break up with our entire family for a man like this? Look, you scared Ranran just now and she even fell down the stairs. Fortunately, nothing happened. If something happened, how could you feel at ease?" The eldest sister Gu Yan pointed at Gu Ran who was standing at the stairs, her face also full of heartache.
"I don't want this either, but I really don't understand why you have such a big prejudice against Chen An. He hasn't achieved much now, and he doesn't have much money, but he works hard and loves me very much. I want to find someone who loves me and have a happy marriage, not a marriage of equal status where we are treated with cold respect for each other for the rest of our lives!"
Gu Lan, the second son of the Gu family, stood straight in the middle of the ground with a stubborn look on his face.
The handsome man wearing gold-rimmed glasses gently put his arm around Gu Lan's shoulders and said, "Xiao Lan, don't argue with your uncle and aunt. If you have anything to say, you can talk it out."
Hearing these familiar lines, Gu Ran was speechless.
She had just read the original novel last night, and she immediately remembered this famous scene.
Gu Lan, the second sister of the original owner, is a close friend of one of the heroines in the original novel and also serves as her control group.
One of them came from a wealthy family, and the other from a poor family. Both of them are the kind of people who are willing to work hard and take risks.
Gu Lan took over the family hotel at a young age and managed it in an orderly manner, becoming the vice president. Unfortunately, her vision in choosing men was not very good, and she picked a Phoenix man who was extremely disguised.
This Phoenix man, the gentlemanly villain Chen An who is now standing next to her, revealed his true nature after marriage.
He transferred property, cheated on his wife, committed domestic violence, and even took nude photos and videos of Gu Lan to threaten her.
In the end, because Gu Lan insisted on divorce, he beat Gu Lan to death in anger.
Unfortunately, the law is too lenient towards domestic violence men. Even though this gentleman did so many evil things, he was not sentenced to death in the end.
Because Gu's father was dissatisfied with the verdict, he stabbed Chen An to death with a knife. This was also an important fuse for the disintegration of the Gu family.
Recalling the original work, Gu Ran couldn't help but sigh.
[As expected, falling in love and investing are the only choices for the rich second generation to squander their wealth. If they can avoid these two, they will live a life of luxury and comfort.]
While she was complaining in her heart, she took out her cell phone from her pocket, intending to write down all the key plot points while she had just come through and the plot of the novel was still fresh in her mind.
Although she hasn't finished reading the second half of the original novel, she is still impressed by the plot of the first half.
She finally had the chance to be born in Rome and live a simple life. She didn't want to go bankrupt and end up living on the streets!
Just as Gu Ran was typing away on his phone, the tense Gu family members in the living room fell strangely silent and all looked in the direction of Gu Ran.
Gu Ran’s words just now echoed repeatedly in the minds of several people.
The Gu family members all had complicated expressions and were full of disbelief.
Gu Ran was diagnosed with intellectual disability by doctors since birth. He has difficulty speaking and usually speaks one word at a time, not only does he stutter.
The Gu family had never heard Gu Ran speak so fluently before, and his voice was full of ups and downs and a sarcastic tone, which was very different from Gu Ran's usual straight eyes and silly look.
But when they looked over, they found that Gu Ran had not opened his mouth at all, but the sound seemed to come out of thin air.
[Tsk, tsk, tsk, it must be so difficult to be born in Rome. Gu Lan has never been poor, but she has not seen much of the world. A Phoenix man of this level can deceive her. I don't know how she can lead the company and become a strong woman.]
[Isn't it said that businessmen are ruthless and have high emotional intelligence and IQ? Why is Gu Lan so stupid?]
[This Phoenix Man's acting isn't even as good as described in the novel. Look at that gentle and affectionate look, it's all just acting!]
If my second sister really likes this, she could just turn left and head to Beijing Film Academy. She could hire a young hunk for 200,000 yuan, and feed her and massage her feet every day. Wouldn't that be great? Maybe they could even appear on a variety show together and make back the money.
[The domineering female CEO's little puppy, who transforms into a little wolfdog at night, ensures that the hotel's performance will reach a higher level. ]
“…” Gu Lan’s mouth twitched.
“…” The other members of the Gu family also had complicated expressions.
Even Gu's father, who was the most angry and felt sorry for his daughter, could not continue his anger. His expression changed unpredictably for a while, which was very exciting.
Only Chen An was a little confused about the situation. He was trying to persuade Gu Lan softly, but halfway through, he saw Gu Lan suddenly turn his head and look at Gu Ran, who was standing at the stairs playing with his mobile phone, together with the Gu family.
He was halfway through his words of comfort when he suddenly got stuck and didn't know what to say for a moment.
It took him a long while to come back to his senses. He gently pulled Gu Lan's hand and called out, "Xiao Lan."
Gu Lan came back to his senses, remembering the previous argument. He wanted to say a few more words to prove his resolve, but his emotions were interrupted and he couldn't continue for a while.
And what Gu Ran said...
Gu Lan naturally would not doubt her lover whom she had been together for two years just because of a few words from Gu Ran.
But it is impossible to say that it is not affected at all.
She looked at Chen An, opened her mouth, and was a little speechless.
Gu Yan also withdrew her gaze from the stairs at this time. She looked at Gu Lan and Chen An, and suddenly she felt happy and understood a lot.
Gu Ran didn't say anything, but her voice came out, and it was obvious that she was not the only one who heard it. The people from the Gu family who had behaved abnormally just now should have heard it.
Looking at Chen An's confused look, it seemed as if he didn't hear it.
Gu Yan instantly had a very mysterious guess.
