Jin Chenglu looked up and examined her carefully, confirming that he did not recognize her.
He asked, "Do you know me?"
Qingyou smiled and said, "You're the heartthrob of our school, there shouldn't be many people who don't know you."
"I've seen you at school; you were my junior."
"By the way, my name is Gu Qingyou."
Although his lover's soul was imprinted with her spiritual power, he had no memory of his past life.
But it doesn't matter, as long as he's still in this world, she doesn't mind falling in love again.
A faint smile appeared on Jin Chenglu's usually aloof face. "Now that we know each other, thank you for saving me!"
Qingyou smiled and waved her hand, "No need to be polite, I was just doing it on the spur of the moment."
Jin Chenglu asked, "What are you doing in the sea?"
This seems like too much of a coincidence.
Qingyou said, "I jumped into the sea myself."
Jin Chenglu and the man behind him both looked surprised. "Jumped into the sea?"
Qingyou truthfully said, "My sister and I were kidnapped and taken to a cliff by the sea. He told my parents and fiancé to choose one of them to release, while the other would be thrown into the sea."
“They all chose my sister. I was very angry and sad at the time, so I took the initiative to jump into the sea to sever ties with them.”
Although it was the original owner of this body who got engaged to Xie Ling, she is now taking the blame for it, so she needs to let her lover know in advance to avoid any misunderstandings.
For some reason, even though it was their first meeting, Jin Chenglu's heart clenched when he heard Qingyou mention a fiancé.
"You have a fiancé?"
The man behind him was speechless when he heard the question. This didn't seem to be the point, did it?
The point shouldn't be that Ms. Gu was abandoned by her family and fiancé, and was forced to jump into the sea, which is too tragic.
Qingyou explained, "Although we were engaged, we were still in a platonic relationship."
The original owner and Xie Ling had not yet reached the point of living together.
She added, "Before I jumped off the cliff, he and I had already broken off our engagement."
Jin Chenglu's smile deepened. "A fiancé like that is better off without."
The man behind him also said, "That's right, it's utter garbage."
With a gossipy curiosity, he asked, "It makes sense that your parents chose your sister, but why did your fiancé also choose your sister? Are they having an affair behind the scenes?"
Qingyou shrugged. "He used to have a crush on my sister, but she disappeared for three years, so he pursued me and used me as a substitute."
"He's really trash. I only found out today that I was being used as a stand-in."
"And his cousin is my sister's fiancé."
That's why Xie Ling didn't pursue Gu Fenghua, but only harbored a secret crush on her.
And no one else knew about his feelings for Gu Fenghua.
However, Gu Fenghua did not end up with her fiancé Xie Yu, but instead chose to kidnap Jin Junyao, who imprisoned her for three years.
This matter has never been exposed, and the original owner only learned the truth before being killed by Jin Junyao.
The key point is that Gu Fenghua sought to break off the engagement with Xie Yu, and even used the original owner of the body as a scapegoat.
He said that during the three years she was missing, he actually pursued her sister, which tainted his romantic relationship and she couldn't accept it.
More than half a year later, Gu Fenghua and Jin Junyao got together. Everyone thought that she met Jin Junyao after her engagement was broken off.
This caused Xie Yu to take his anger out on the original owner of the body, often causing trouble and embarrassment for her.
The original owner was disliked by the Xie family. Even though Xie Ling would protect her to some extent later, the original owner still suffered a lot of humiliation and eventually broke up with Xie Ling.
If Qingyou hadn't come, after Gu Fenghua persuaded the original owner to release the kidnapped disciple, not only did Gu's parents not feel much guilt about their choice, but Xie Ling even comforted the original owner.
They said they chose Gu Fenghua because they had arranged a lifeboat in the sea below the cliff, so they were sure nothing would happen to her.
The original owner genuinely liked Xie Ling, but because she was heartbroken by being abandoned, she came to hate Gu Fenghua.
Although she knew that Xie Ling had used her as a substitute before, she still wanted to win his heart and make him forget Gu Fenghua, so the two continued to entangle themselves.
From the original owner's memories, Qingyou discovered that Xie Ling probably also liked the original owner, but at the same time, his heart was filled with his white moonlight, Guang Gu Fenghua.
Even more so, whenever his beloved is in trouble, his heart will lean towards her.
This is what made the original owner of the body completely heartbroken. Coupled with the damage to her reputation, which made it impossible for her to stay in the capital, she proposed breaking up and went to another place.
Then, she was kidnapped abroad. Jin Junyao appeared in front of the original owner, not only mocking her in various ways, but also revealing a lot of the truth.
The choice to go to the cliff this time, the kidnapper was the result of Jin Junyao using the death of the other party's son to provoke and instigate others.
It was because Jin Junyao couldn't stand that the original owner had replaced Gu Fenghua and was valued and cultivated by the Gu family.
The main reason was that after Gu Fenghua returned, every time she contacted him, she would express her disappointment and resentment about her sister taking her place, so Jin Junyao devised this plan.
To make the original owner of this body clearly see her own status and position in the Gu family, that she was no match for Gu Fenghua, and that she should not covet things that did not belong to her.
At this point in time, Gu Fenghua was unaware that Jin Junyao was behind it, but she found out not long afterward.
We even had a little argument, and the two of us had a minor quarrel.
Jin Junyao then blamed the original owner of the body again, and secretly plotted against her once more.
This led to her being accused of academic fraud, expelled from school, and unable to work in the medical field.
This also made the original owner a stain on the Gu family, and she was completely abandoned by the Gu family.
Afterwards, the two had a minor argument, which was actually a good way to reconcile them. The original owner of this body even played a role in facilitating their reconciliation, making their relationship even better.
