Even so, Jiang Sheng knew very well that if his three older sisters hadn't suffered such tragic fates, his fourth sister, Zhao Shuiman, wouldn't have kept her distance from men and lived alone like this.
To change his fourth sister's future fate, he still needs to work hard on his three older sisters.
Only when the fourth sister sees that her three older sisters are doing well can she regain her faith in love.
However, looking at Siji Zhao Shuiman walking towards him, Jiang Sheng suddenly felt a sense of trepidation as he approached his hometown, and subconsciously took a step back.
There was nothing he could do. He hadn't seen his fourth sister for so long, and he both longed to see her and was afraid that he would lose control of his emotions once he saw her.
Jiang Sheng's eyes were slightly red. After finally composing himself, he looked up and saw the woman standing in front of him, a rare faint smile on her usually aloof face.
"If I remember correctly, you should have won by a small margin, right?"
The woman before him wore a faint smile, and her aloof demeanor was largely washed away, replaced by a gentle warmth.
Jiang Sheng was slightly taken aback, then looked at the woman in front of him and nodded subconsciously.
"Fourth Sister, it's been so long!"
Seeing the boy's blank expression, Zhao Shuiman couldn't help but chuckle.
"What? It's only been a few years, and you've already forgotten your fourth sister?"
Seeing his usually aloof fourth sister smile at him, Jiang Sheng realized what was happening and smiled at Zhao Shuiman somewhat embarrassedly.
"No, no, it's just that I haven't seen my fourth sister for many years. I found that she has become even more beautiful and elegant, which makes me feel a little embarrassed."
Looking at the shy smile on the boy's face, Zhao Shuiman's thoughts immediately went back to many years ago.
"Back then, you were just as sweet-talking. You treated all four of us older sisters equally, praising one after another."
Thinking of this, Zhao Shuiman pulled herself out of her thoughts and smiled faintly: "I didn't expect that after so many years, your mouth is still so sweet. You're really glib."
Despite saying that, Zhao Shuiman patted Jiang Sheng's shoulder familiarly, just like many years ago, and her voice became much softer.
"So many years have passed, I never imagined that my little brother would grow into such a handsome young man and even get into Peking University. As his older sister, I feel so gratified and proud!"
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, the atmosphere between the two gradually returned to normal.
Looking at her fourth sister, who had a cool and aloof demeanor but only showed a faint smile when looking at her, Jiang Sheng felt a surge of warmth in her heart.
Among the four older sisters, the fourth sister is usually serious and meticulous in her speech and actions, but she only shows a bit of warmth when she is with herself.
Seeing his fourth sister again, Jiang Sheng felt that it was a blessing from heaven.
"Fourth Sister," Jiang Sheng scratched his head and grinned at Zhao Shuiman, just like he used to whine to his fourth sister, "I finally got into university, so fourth sister, please treat me to dinner today."
"You brat!"
Zhao Shuiman laughed and scolded him, "It's been so long since we last met, and the first thing I did was make your fourth sister bleed a lot."
Despite saying that, Zhao Shuiman did not refuse. Instead, she walked forward side by side with Jiang Sheng while speaking.
"I bought a lot of groceries this morning. Come on, you're in for a treat today, your fourth sister is going to cook for you!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Sheng's eyes lit up instantly.
Among the four older sisters, besides the second sister Zhao Xuehui, who has excellent cooking skills and can rival the second sister, the fourth sister Zhao Shuiman, who always has a cool and aloof temperament, is the only one.
He readily agreed, and along the way, he tried every means to praise Zhao Shuiman to the skies.
Although Zhao Shuiman was not one to smile easily, a faint smile would occasionally appear on her cool face when she heard Jiang Sheng talking about something funny.
She lived in a house allocated to her by the hospital, located in a residential area near the First People's Hospital of Yanjing City.
The two went up to the third floor together, and Zhao Shuiman opened the door, gesturing for Jiang Sheng to go in.
Although it's just a regular two-bedroom apartment, the space doesn't look particularly large.
However, Jiang Sheng knew that the place where his fourth sister was currently living would definitely see a huge increase in value in the next few decades, and even if it were rented out, it would still bring in a considerable income.
He could take advantage of this opportunity to buy more houses in Yanjing City before there are any restrictions on buying houses here.
Just as Jiang Sheng's thoughts were wandering, Zhao Shuiman had already arrived in the kitchen and started picking, washing, and cooking vegetables.
"We can't let Fourth Sister work alone, I'll help her out too!"
Seeing this, Jiang Sheng also stepped forward to help tidy up the vegetables and fruits.
Although he was really bad at cooking, today was the first time he and his fourth sister had met after many years, and he couldn't let his fourth sister run around while he did nothing.
Zhao Shuiman did not refuse, but sat on a small stool with Jiang Sheng, chatting and laughing as they tidied up the vegetables in their hands.
As they chatted, Jiang Shengcai discovered that although his fourth sister was working at the hospital, the hospital intended to promote her to the position of attending physician because of a paper she had just published last year.
In his previous life, Jiang Sheng focused all his attention on his three older sisters and didn't know much about his fourth sister's career.
All he knew was that until his rebirth, his fourth sister had lived alone. However, because of her three older sisters, she didn't have a single friend besides working and doing research, and her personality became increasingly withdrawn.
Thinking of this, Jiang Sheng washed the vegetables in his hands while smiling casually and speaking.
"Fourth Sister, do you still remember that chubby little boy who used to hang out with us in our village?"
"Little Fatty?"
Upon hearing Jiang Sheng ask the question, Zhao Shuiman thought about it seriously for a moment and then shook her head.
Which chubby boy are you talking about?
Seeing that Zhao Shuiman really didn't remember, Jiang Sheng took the initiative to remind her: "I think when Fourth Sister was in the village, besides working in the fields, she probably spent most of her time on medicine. She even forgot about that chubby little boy who used to bother you."
Reminded by Jiang Sheng, Zhao Shuiman stopped what she was doing and thought about it seriously.
"I remember now!"
She looked at Jiang Sheng with some surprise, a faint smile playing on her cool eyes.
