Chapter 170 Giving You a Way Out



"Hmph, with your limited knowledge, how much do you really know about the demon race? They're nothing but a bunch of actors! In the end, you're the one who gets hurt!" Gu Changqiu said, pointing at Gu Yixian.

"You don't understand me, and you don't understand him either. I have nothing to say to you! I've come to you to tell you that I've decided to leave the Gu family. You take out the treasure map, and I'll take out the key. After we find the treasure, I want 50%, and you can have the rest!" Gu Yixian said coldly.

"Fifty percent? Gu Yixian, are you crazy?! Are you trying to fight for that fox spirit's inheritance? There's absolutely no way the two of them can take half the property!" Gu Changqiu said angrily. "At most, ten percent!"

"you……"

"It's just property, what's the point of robbing it?" Just as Gu Yixian was about to retort, the door was suddenly pushed open.

Lin Ruixin swaggered in, looking at the two of them with an air of superiority, and said, "I say, aren't you two family? Why do family members need to divide up property?"

"Hehe, what the little girl says is true, what she says is true..." Gu Changqiu was delighted to hear Lin Ruixin stand up to uphold "fairness".

He believed that Gu Liyan was no match for Lin Ruixin at the moment, so Lin Ruixin's words must be the most effective!

However, Gu Yixian frowned upon hearing this.

Lin Ruixin is Gu Liyan's sister, and even claims to be his sister in name only. Why isn't she speaking up for him, but instead helping Gu Changqiu...?

Just as Gu Yixian was about to refute Lin Ruixin's words, she heard Lin Ruixin say with a smile, "Anyway, Uncle, you're going to die young, so why not hand over the family fortune to Sister Flower Goddess to manage? That would be great! You wouldn't have to worry about money anymore! Maybe under Sister Flower Goddess's management, you can even live a few more healthy years!"

threaten!

An absolute threat!

They're threatening suicide!

Gu Yixian stared at Lin Ruixin in astonishment. This girl was not only an absolute powerhouse, but also an absolute master of negotiation!

Sure enough, upon hearing Lin Ruixin's words, Gu Changqiu's face immediately darkened.

Lin Ruixin looked at Gu Changqiu, raised an eyebrow innocently, and said with a smile, "Uncle, how about I choose a path for you too?"

Gu Changqiu swallowed hard and hurriedly waved his hand, "No, no need, I don't need money, you can have it all!"

He then took out a yellowed map from the drawer. "This...this is the map your mother left behind, and it's part of the same ruins as the key your master left you..."

Gu Yixian took the map and immediately looked at Lin Ruixin with a smile, while the latter clearly had a sly grin on her face—

The two women, having obtained the map, emerged from the study. Gu Yixian said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Ruixin, I thought you..."

Lin Ruixin waved her hand calmly, "No need to apologize, this is something I owe you and my older brother!"

Gu Yixian looked at Lin Ruixin with suspicion, "You owe me?"

If she owed Gu Liyan, she could understand, but how could she claim to owe Gu Yixian herself?

Lin Ruixin looked at Gu Yixian and suddenly said, "You only know that your older brother likes you, but you don't know what he has sacrificed for you, do you?"

The moonlight shone on their faces through the window. That night, Lin Ruixin told Gu Yixian a very long story—

The story of an injured fox who unexpectedly meets a little flower fairy and makes a vow to protect her forever.

As sunlight streamed into the room, Gu Liyan felt its warmth and slowly opened his eyes. The first thing he saw was Gu Yixian sleeping beside him.

Gu Liyan looked at Gu Yixian, then looked down at his own hand, only to find that Gu Yixian was holding it tightly and he couldn't move!

"I suddenly collapsed yesterday, it must have scared you..." Gu Liyan smiled slightly, looking at Gu Yixian with a gentle expression. "Yiyi, I'm sorry... I made you worry again..."

Looking at Gu Yixian's sleeping face, Gu Liyan couldn't help but lean over and kiss her forehead—

But just as they kissed and before they could even pull away, a rolled "r" sound suddenly came from behind them:

"Oh~"

Gu Liyan was startled and turned around to see Lin Ruixin curled up in a small ball behind him, staring at him with her bright eyes.

Lin Ruixin smiled mischievously and said, "You two are having an affair~"

"You, you little brat, what are you doing here?!" Gu Liyan couldn't help but swallow hard as she spoke.

"I've been sleeping here all day!" Lin Ruixin covered her mouth, unable to suppress a laugh. "I didn't expect to see such an embarrassing scene when I opened my eyes..."

Gu Liyan blushed instantly. "I, I just, I just..."

Seeing Gu Liyan's stammering, Lin Ruixin interrupted him, staring blankly at him as she murmured, "...Big brother, if Ruixin were gone, would you search for me like you searched for the Flower Goddess...?"

Gu Liyan was stunned, looking at Lin Ruixin with a surprised expression. His Painting Soul Eyes could see through Gu Changyuan, Mo Chen, and even Hua Baixian, but he just couldn't see through Ruixin's change in mindset...

He hesitated. He didn't know how to answer. Should he give Lin Ruixin another promise? Could he still bear the fate of another person...?

Lin Ruixin looked at Gu Liyan's silent gaze, pursed her lips, and said, "You don't need to answer my big brother, I know everything..."

Gu Liyan looked at Lin Ruixin with suspicion: You know?

What do you know?

What are Gu Liyan's feelings?

Is this still their future?

"You..." Gu Liyan wanted to say something, but Gu Yixian groaned and opened her eyes.
