Xiao Wujie reached out and gently pinched the space between his eyebrows, then asked in a deep voice, "Tell me, what are you planning to do?"
Gu Junci's eyes flickered slightly, a hint of bitterness appearing on his face, and he spoke with a flushed cheek:
"I... need your cooperation."
"You should know that kind of clone technique, right?"
Xiao Wujie raised his eyes and looked back at her, instantly understanding her intention.
Feeling flushed all over under Xiao Wujie's ambiguous gaze, Gu Junci suppressed the urge to groan and gritted his teeth as he said with difficulty:
"I know you have a mental fastidiousness problem, but it's just an alternate version of yourself, not the real you."
“I won’t do anything outrageous, I’ll just act a little closer to them and coerce them into letting me see my brother first, so that I can lure them out.”
With a slight frown, Xiao Wujie's gaze darkened as he gently stroked the silver ring on his finger.
Finally, a glint flashed in his eyes, and another lifelike Xiao Wujie instantly appeared beside him.
His face was gloomy. He silently opened the car door, sat in the passenger seat, and pulled down the partition.
Gently stroking the silver ring on his finger, he gazed at the swirling snow outside the window, his eyes heavy with melancholy, his mood inexplicably troubled.
It's snowing again.
On a snowy day, Chu Liyue found him.
On another snowy day, he was able to start over.
What will happen in this snow...?
Sister, I'm so lucky to have you. I've finally found the meaning of life.
If Heaven can hear my plea, I hope this snow will bring you and me good luck.
After a while, Gu Junci returned to the driver's seat, a slight blush on her fair face.
She lightly touched her upper teeth with the tip of her tongue, then flipped her phone screen and held it horizontally in front of Xiao Wujie.
With a gloomy look, Xiao Wujie glanced at the screen. Although it was a fake clone and the scene wasn't that offensive, he still felt extremely uncomfortable.
He always felt guilty for betraying his sister.
Learning from the lesson of Chu Feihong releasing photos of his relationship with Chu Liyue, he had Beishan keep a close eye on the online world before coming to the capital.
Although the video made him uncomfortable, it didn't have the opportunity to be exposed to the public eye and spark public debate.
"Afterwards, you must delete this video from the source. You know the consequences if it causes any trouble."
He gave Gu Junci a cold warning and then said nothing more.
After giving Xiao Wujie a solemn assurance, Gu Junci immediately sent the video to a mysterious email address.
He added a message: "The deed is done. I need to see my brother first before I can post any further content."
After finishing everything, Gu Junci leaned back in his seat, looking slightly tired. He wrapped his fox fur coat around himself and gazed out the car window, his eyes slightly unfocused.
I'm a little tired, both mentally and physically.
So many things happened this year.
She avenged her father as she wished, but also learned a more cruel truth.
The night she learned the truth, she pondered all night, and finally ruthlessly wielded the butcher's knife, taking all the sins upon herself alone.
Give her the sins, give them the happiness.
But her mother committed suicide, her second sister got into trouble, and all the others who were related to her by blood died in the same way under another butcher's knife.
Everything she had tried so hard to protect was gradually disappearing before her eyes, and she was powerless to do anything about it, not even to salvage the slightest bit of it.
Is this what they call "the cycle of karma"?
She schemed and plotted, but what did she gain in the end?
For the first time in her life, she felt lost.
If there is any punishment in the world, let it fall on her alone.
She lived her whole life for others, and now that she only has her younger brother left, if another accident were to happen, she truly wouldn't know what the meaning of her life would be.
Inside the car, all was quiet. Gu Junci and Xiao Wujie, each with their own thoughts, gazed absently out the window.
The waiting process was somewhat boring. After a long while, Gu Junci suddenly spoke:
"It's been more than half a year since I last saw you. How have you been?"
His voice was low and calm, lacking his usual shrewdness and calculation, as if he were greeting an old friend.
Having calmed down somewhat, Xiao Wujie responded in a low voice, "Very good."
She has her older sister's meticulous pampering and care.
With Lu Zhufeng, Yunmo, and a few other lively characters by his side.
There was also concern from several of Bai Jingxuan's elders.
He is content.
Looking out the window, my gaze softened, and the first genuine smile of the day appeared on my face.
Gu Junci lowered his eyes slightly and chuckled softly, "That's good."
Xiao Wujie responded sincerely, "Mm."
If he could eliminate those venomous snakes lurking in the shadows, if his body could recover, if he could live peacefully for two more years and reach the age to get married...
Everything will be better then.

In the dimly lit room, the faint glow of the withered oil lamp flickered.
A black-clad assassin bent down and held up a cell phone screen in front of Aisie Hall and Shen Yuan.
Withdrawing his sinister gaze from the screen, Aisie Hall, exuding an eerie aura, let out a soft, sinister laugh:
"Hehe~ She's a very thoughtful little girl."
Shen Yuan, clad in a black robe, arms crossed, his eyes dark and cold, spoke in a low, chilling voice:
"There might be a trap."
Her eerie, purple-glowing eyes swept across the screen, Aisie Hall's gaze momentarily turning sinister and unpredictable. After a instant, she suddenly chuckled softly:
"It's not a big deal if it's a scam."
"The outcome will not change because of this."
She lightly brushed the hem of her skirt, slowly rose, and walked into the darkness.
Just as her slender figure was about to disappear into the darkness, she stopped, slightly turned her head, looked at the cold and aloof Shen Yuan, and chuckled softly with a magnetic, sinister tone:
“Shen Yuan, take that little boy and go there yourself.”
Shen Yuan raised his eyes and met her sinister, smiling gaze. After a moment of silence, he got up and walked outside.

On the other side, Lu Zhufeng was driving a car at high speed with Chu Liyue in the passenger seat.
Chu Liyue's cold eyes flashed with icy intent as she said in a chilling voice, "Explain yourself. What's going on?"
A hint of helplessness appeared between Lu Zhufeng's brows as he said in a deep voice:
“That Gu Junci is very cunning. While you were away, Young Master Chu and Leng Ruxue went to investigate Yun Mochuwan’s whereabouts and took advantage of the situation to break in.”
"I could tell she was being pretentious, but she wouldn't let me stop her, and then she took me away."
Chu Liyue's eyes flashed with even greater coldness, her voice chilling and intimidating:
"Nonsense!"
"He's so sick, and you just let him do whatever he wants?"
A forced smile appeared on his lips. After a moment of silence, his gaze fixed intently ahead, Lu Zhufeng suddenly spoke:
"I think he ultimately didn't want you to shoulder everything alone, and he didn't want you to be put in a passive position because of him."
Chu Liyue's gaze flickered slightly, and she remained silent for a moment.
Just then, her phone suddenly vibrated.
An unfamiliar account sent a video file to her private email address.
Her cold gaze sharpened slightly as she reached out and opened the document.
In the video, a woman wearing a revealing halter dress with long, wavy hair leans over, exuding charm, and holds the hands of a handsome man before kissing his pale lips.
The man lay on the back seat of the car, his eyes closed, several buttons of his shirt undone, revealing his delicate and alluring collarbone and his well-defined, pale chest.
The woman's kiss landed on his lips, his neck, and his pale chest, creating an extremely sensual scene.
