My father has high hopes for Gu Sinian. He became a regimental commander at a young age, all through his own strength and ability. He never relied on his father, who was a commander, nor on the retired Grandpa Gu. He climbed to the position of regimental commander entirely on his own, which is unique in the country.
That's why her father made her follow her future mother-in-law, Li Yaxian, around like a lapdog every day, trying to win her favor and become a dutiful future daughter-in-law.
As the saying goes, perseverance pays off. After her persistent flattery, Li Yaxian was won over and finally agreed to let her son marry her.
Gu Sinian didn't come to the engagement banquet. She knew that the man didn't want to marry her and didn't agree to the marriage. If it weren't for her efforts, the engagement wouldn't have happened at all.
But after Gu Sinian got engaged to her, the Gu family later had a problem that she hadn't expected. After the Qiao family broke off the engagement, Gu Sinian never married. Wasn't that to keep himself chaste for her sake?
It's not quite what she imagined; where did things go wrong?
Gu Sinian is treating her this way now, without a trace of love. Has she misunderstood?
But Aunt Gu once said that no one can force Gu Sinian to do things he doesn't agree with.
Later, before the Gu family's misfortune, when others congratulated him on his upcoming marriage, he didn't object. Does that mean he didn't like her?
impossible.
Gu Sinian likes her.
In his past life, Gu Sinian loved her for his entire life.
If she hadn't hurt Gu Sinian so deeply, he wouldn't still be single in his forties.
He must like himself.
"That's not how it is. I genuinely like you. Why would I come all this way to see you if I didn't like you? I could live a perfectly good life, and I'm not sick."
Gu Sinian had no interest in her little tricks. "You know what you're thinking, so I won't speculate. Don't bring up our past engagement in the future. After all, I'm not the only one you're engaged to; there's also the only son of the Huo family."
Su Ying stood aside and listened to every word of their conversation, gaining a clearer understanding of their relationship.
So their relationship wasn't good at all; that put her at ease.
What I thought was a childhood sweetheart relationship turned out to be nothing more than this? Not worth mentioning.
According to Gu Sinian's statement, Su Ying received an unprecedented guess.
In her previous life, Qiao Xiyan may not have gone to the countryside at all. Instead, she married the only son of the Huo family. Later, the Huo family may have encountered trouble, and Qiao Xiyan changed her direction and went to the countryside to find Gu Sinian in order to change her tragic fate.
Otherwise, as Gu Sinian said, Qiao Xiyan didn't have much real feeling for him; she was more interested in his promising future.
However, not long after the Gu family was sent to the countryside, Qiao Xiyan broke off her engagement with the Huo family and gave up everything in the capital to go to the countryside to find Gu Sinian.
How could she guarantee that Gu Sinian would have a bright future? After all, the chances of him returning to Beijing after being sent down to the countryside were slim.
Could it be that Qiao Xiyan knew Gu Sinian had a bright future, which is why she made this decision so resolutely?
Knowing about the future, could it be that Qiao Xiyan, like her, is also a reborn person?
Could it be such a coincidence?
They had no connection in their past lives, yet they all appeared in Willow Village in this life—what a terrible fate!
