Chapter 102: The Academic Prodigy's Dark Moonlight (13)
He examined that part of his memory like an outsider. Liu Yayue still lost a game with her friends and then made a bet that she would win him over in a month. Gu Sheng knew that she would break up with him before the college entrance examination.
However, this memory has changed. The change should have started when Liu Yayue saved him. Originally, it was Qin Yueyue who saved him, but this time it was Liu Yayue.
Later, Liu Yayue became his deskmate and asked him to help her with her studies. She rescued Shuyun and her grandmother from Gu Zhengguo's men, secretly followed him, and gave money to his part-time boss.
These are not things Liu Yayue should have done; the contrast in her memories makes it seem like she's dealing with two different people.
Gu Sheng picked up her phone and went online to check what would happen this year. A popular celebrity couple had divorced. The man, who had cultivated a "good husband" image, had cheated on her like an octopus. Gu Sheng clicked on entertainment news, then entered current affairs news, and compared everything with the events in her memory to confirm that her memory was correct.
Therefore, the only mistake was made by Liu Yayue.
Gu Sheng felt a little dizzy. Xiao Shuyun opened the door and rushed towards Gu Sheng, asking, "Brother, are you alright?"
Gu Sheng reached out and touched Xiao Shuyun's face, "Shuyun."
His tone suggested that he was worried Xiao Shuyun would disappear from his sight at any moment. He thought it was just a dream. Xiao Shuyun was frightened to see her brother crying and thought he was in too much pain.
"Brother, I'm going to find a doctor. Just bear with it."
Gu Sheng pulled Xiao Shuyun, who had turned around, and hugged her tightly. "I'm fine. Let your brother hug me, just a hug will do."
Xiao Shuyun didn't dare to move, but she felt heartbroken by the look in her brother's eyes today, though she couldn't understand it.
"Shuyun, I'm sorry."
Xiao Shu said, "What did you say, brother? Why did you have to apologize? You were already very good. It was those bad guys who bullied us because of their numbers. They were so mean."
Gu Sheng held his younger sister in his arms. He hadn't been able to keep Shuyun back then, letting Liu Meiyun take her away. He had originally thought that Liu Meiyun would at least give Shuyun a good life and not have to suffer with him. Who would have thought that he would be the one to push Shuyun into the abyss?
That family were all beasts in human skin. Thinking of Shuyun's suicide before she even reached adulthood, Gu Sheng felt his heart clench with pain. This was his lifelong guilt; he had let Shuyun down.
Fortunately, he had a second chance. This time, he was determined to keep Shuyun by his side and not let anyone take her away.
He wanted to change Shuyun's fate.
"Brother, are you holding me properly? I can hardly breathe."
Gu Sheng immediately released Shu Yun. "I'm sorry, did I hurt you?"
Xiao Shuyun shook her head. "No."
"Where's Grandma?" Gu Sheng asked quickly, remembering her grandmother. According to the memories she had just received, the debt collectors had vandalized the house, and her grandmother had been frightened.
"Don't worry, brother, Grandma is fine."
Gu Sheng was relieved. Xiao Shuyun told her brother to lie down in bed properly, "Your injuries are so serious this time, you need to rest and recuperate. By the way, where is your sister? Hasn't she been watching over you the whole time?"
Gu Sheng: "..."
"She went to buy food."
Wen Wan happened to come back. "Little Shuyun came to see your brother? Azai, I bought you wontons and lean meat porridge." She sat on the bed, scooped up a spoonful of wontons, blew on them, and held them to Gu Sheng's lips.
Seeing Gu Sheng staring at him, he asked, "Little one, is there something on my face?"
Xiao Shuyun said, "There's nothing on my sister's face."
Gu Sheng put the wonton in her mouth and said, "I can do it myself."
Wen Wan: "You're a patient now, I'll feed you. You still have an IV drip in one hand, so don't move."
Wen Wan scooped up another spoonful of wontons, blew on them, and held them to Gu Sheng's lips. Gu Sheng opened his mouth and ate them. After a few bites, Wen Wan opened the box of lean meat porridge and fed Gu Sheng the porridge, nagging as she did so, "Don't you know how to run? Run first and then call the police. Can you fight those people by yourself? Can you win? Why are you so stupid at this crucial moment?"
Gu Sheng: "???"
"What are you looking at me for? Aren't you stupid? You've gotten yourself all bruised." Wen Wan glared at Gu Sheng. "The police have already taken those guys away. Next time you encounter something like this, call the police immediately. Fine, I'll go home with you from now on. If I don't go with you for a day, you'll stay in the hospital..."
Xiao Shuyun sat beside him, watching her brother being scolded obediently. When had she ever seen such a scene?
Gu Sheng ate half a bowl of porridge and stopped Wen Wan from feeding him, saying, "I'm full."
Wen Wan looked at the remaining half bowl of porridge and half bowl of wontons, "There's still quite a lot left, we can't waste it."
"you--"
Wen Wan changed to a different spoon and then ate the rest of the porridge and wontons herself. She hadn't eaten anything else today.
Gu Sheng looked at her with a complicated expression.
"Why are you looking at me like that? You're complaining about me? I haven't complained about you yet, and besides, I bought this."
After finishing their meal and cleaning up the trash, Wen Wan sat down next to Gu Sheng and said, "You can't scare me like that again next time, okay?"
Wen Wan's eyes were red. If Wen Wan came to this world to save Gu Sheng at the beginning because of kindness, she had known Gu Sheng for so long and regarded Gu Sheng as a friend. Seeing Gu Sheng in trouble made her very sad and she was blaming herself. Perhaps Gu Sheng was lying in the hospital bed now because of her.
She wanted what was best for Gu Sheng.
She wanted to change Gu Sheng's fate and wanted to help him more.
But she doesn't know whether Gu Sheng actually needs what she considers good.
Gu Sheng suddenly felt a pang of discomfort in his heart. Before he could even react, his hand had already touched the corner of Wen Wan's eye.
He wanted to comfort her, to hold her in his arms, to tell her that none of this was her fault, but he wasn't the seventeen or eighteen-year-old Gu Sheng. Reason suppressed his instincts, and in the end, he withdrew his hand.
"This will not happen again."
Wen Wan took two days off, but then had to return to school to continue her classes. Xiao Shuyun also had to attend classes, so Wen Wan asked Aunt Liu to take care of Gu Sheng.
Gu Sheng quickly integrated all his memories. He had returned to his senior year of high school, a year in which many things would happen. He needed to protect his grandmother and younger sister. The most important thing now was that he needed to make money as soon as possible. He possessed memories of the next few decades, which was his natural advantage.
He quickly bought a laptop online, spending half of the money in his card. This was something Gu Sheng would never have done when he was a teenager, but now Gu Sheng understood the meaning of "you can't catch a wolf without risking your cub."
Compared to working part-time at a bubble tea shop or a bar, Gu Sheng now has a more convenient way to make money.
He went up to the largest hacker forum in China, where countless clients place orders and countless hackers take orders every day. It's a mixed bag, but the money comes really fast. As long as you have the skills, you can make money. After failing his college entrance exam, he worked part-time while studying on his own. This place was the source of his first pot of entrepreneurial capital.
This time, he directly found an account, and the person behind that account was his future partner, a rich second-generation heir who had too much money to burn, named Wei Cheng.
