Su Ying continued, following Gu Sinian's words, "They scolded you for going to the countryside and still seducing their daughter, and for giving up everything in Beijing to go to the countryside."
Gu Sinian was shocked; the little girl had guessed exactly what he meant.
Su Ying's guess was probably spot on, judging from the shocked expression on Gu Sinian's face.
Her earlier speculation has been confirmed: Qiao Xiyan, like her, has been reborn. Knowing that Gu Sinian will hold a high position in the future, she broke off the engagement with the Huo family and gave up everything to follow Gu Sinian.
In her previous life, her fate was tied to the farm's transformation. However, due to her rebirth, her original trajectory was altered, and she ended up directly in Willow Village, by Gu Sinian's side.
But she had no way of knowing what Qiao Xiyan's fate was in her previous life.
But what she was certain of was that Qiao Xiyan, like her, was deliberately avoiding the tragic ending of her past life.
After all, it is human nature to seek advantage and avoid harm, and she was quite certain that Qiao Xiyan had taken a different path from her previous life.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have waited until the Gu family had settled in Willow Tree Village before hastily breaking off her engagement with the Huo family and giving up everything in Beijing to go to the countryside.
Something must have happened to the Huo family later, otherwise, given Qiao Xiyan's vain personality, she would never have dumped such a well-off fiancé so easily. Moreover, her decisive attitude made people wonder.
"How does the Huo family's status compare to the original Gu family?"
"Second only to the Gu family. They are also very well-known figures in Beijing."
"After the Gu family fell from power, was there any connection between them and the Huo family? Have you been investigating these matters?"
Gu Sinian's thoughts drifted far away, recalling the relationship between the Gu and Huo families. Normally, they were two families that did not interfere with each other, but once the Gu family fell, the Huo family benefited the most.
Huo Jiangshan directly took over his father's position as commander and benefited greatly. After the little girl's reminder, he gained a clearer understanding of the mess in the matter.
Is it a coincidence?
He had barely settled in when the Huo family's only son was jilted. Qiao Xiyan gave up everything in Beijing and traveled a long distance to find him, shamelessly proclaiming that she wanted to rekindle their romance.
It's too suspicious, so suspicious it's almost unbelievable.
