She did want to stay.
Moreover, even if it really is because the original owner's soul wanted to seize control of the body, after it was taken away, one might not be able to travel back in time.
Gu Nian quickly made up her mind: "Dad, Mom, I'm willing too."
“Here’s what we’ll do. For the next few days, Xiaolian, you need to discuss the Zuijianglou matter with Madam Cheng. I’ll go with you every day. Niannian, you and Xinxin can stay home. If you’re not feeling well, just rest in your room. If you’re not feeling well, your mother and I will definitely feel unwell too, and we’ll try to come back to be with you then. Of course, it would be best if this situation didn’t happen again.” Gu Shouxin nodded and said.
“Okay, Dad. I’m at ease knowing you’re going with Mom. I can take good care of Xinxin at home. If this happens, I’ll try my best to keep Xinxin from seeing it,” Gu Nian said.
If her activities were limited to her home, she was confident she could keep it from Gu Xin.
“I remember Niannian said before that it was possible that Lu Zheng’s rebirth caused our time travel. Now that we’ve encountered this situation, is there something wrong with Lu Zheng?” Cai Xiaolian suddenly asked.
"Huh? Could it be that Lu Zheng was killed by us that day?" Gu Nian had said something like that before, and thinking about it now, she asked in surprise.
“Neither of us used our full strength, how could we possibly kill him?” Gu Shouxin frowned.
“Yes, if he had really been beaten to death, his maternal grandfather would definitely have sent people to our village to investigate. That day, you two brought him to an empty house in the village.” Cai Xiaolian also felt that he hadn’t been beaten to death.
“Your mother is right. If something happens to Lu Zheng, his family will definitely come to investigate. At most, he's just injured and will recover in ten days or half a month. Niannian, there's no need to worry!” Gu Shouxin said.
"I'm not afraid of him! I just think that if our Xin Xin is still the female lead, since we've already replaced her original parents and sisters with us, why not just replace Lu Zheng's soul as well? That would be such a wonderful thing!" Gu Nian exclaimed.
Gu Shouxin and Cai Xiaolian agreed wholeheartedly, but ultimately, they had no say in such matters.
The three disliked Lu Zheng, and they also disliked the original owner of their bodies. These four people were Gu Xin's closest relatives, but they were also the ones who pushed Gu Xin toward her death.
The original three people are no longer here; the only one who remains is Lu Zheng.
"Alright, everyone go to sleep! We couldn't have predicted or prevented what happened tonight, and we can't really explain it anyway. Go back and get some rest and recharge," Gu Shouxin said.
“That’s right. Niannian, I’ll sleep with you these next few days. If things go wrong like tonight, we can look after each other.” Cai Xiaolian said, getting up.
"Huh? Mother, you're sleeping with me, but what about Father?" Gu Nian keenly sensed the Ninth Prince's reluctance.
"He's a grown man, he doesn't need anyone to look after him. Right, Your Excellency?" Cai Xiaolian asked, tilting her head.
"Actually, if possible, I think I need someone to take care of me." Gu Shouxin pursed his lips, looked up at Cai Xiaolian, and said in a serious tone, but his eyes were full of smiles.
Cai Xiaolian didn't expect this man to be so shameless, and rolled her eyes at him: "I don't care what you think, I care what I think!"
After saying that, he pulled Gu Nian away.
As she reached the door, Gu Nian finally couldn't help but smile and turned back to wave to Gu Shouxin.
Gu Shouxin: "..."
