IF line: Perfection
"good."
After a moment's hesitation, Ke Qi finally heard her trembling voice utter those words.
Before meeting An's mother and Gu's father, Ke Qi still felt that there was still hope for Ke Hengyuan, the father.
But now, without comparison, there is no harm.
Since her mother's death, Keqi has endured so many years, repeatedly hoping for this father, only to be disappointed time and time again.
She might have been able to endure it before Gu Zhao appeared, but now, if she could have a better life, why should she continue to wallow in pain and not be able to free herself?
...
Because of her one "good" act, the Gu family took her away for a billion yuan.
Ke Hengyuan is still just a small business owner, and 1 billion yuan is an astronomical sum for him, so he agreed without much hesitation.
However, for reasons unknown, after Gu's father transferred Ke Qi's household registration, he temporarily registered it under the name of adoption with his close friend Jiang Yonghuai.
As a result, since she was nominally the daughter of the Jiang family, Ke Qi spent most of her time living in the Jiang family and a small portion of her time living in the Gu family.
Fortunately, the Jiang family treated Ke Qi very, very well.
Due to her physical condition, Jiang family matriarch Ke Wanqing was unable to have any more children after giving birth to Jiang Zhouyuan, her only son.
She always wanted to have a daughter, which was her lifelong regret.
Now, Keqi's arrival has made up for this regret.
Therefore, Ke's mother treated Ke Qi like her own daughter, spoiling her to the core.
Jiang Zhouyuan was overjoyed to suddenly become an older brother.
Ke Qi is soft, cute, and has a pure and charming personality, which perfectly matches Jiang Zhouyuan's aesthetic.
So he became a doting brother to his sister, giving her all the good things in his life, treating her like a precious gem, and never letting her suffer any grievances or bullying at school.
Of course, Keqi doesn't just have one love, she has two.
Gu's father and An's mother also treated her as their own daughter, showering her with love and care.
Gu Ye and Gu Xi also regard her as their own younger sister and older sister.
Gu Qi, that scatterbrained little fellow, still calls her by the wrong name as always; let's just call him half her son for now.
As for Gu Zhao...
"That kid has ulterior motives towards you!"
Four years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Today is Keqi's 18th birthday party.
Upstairs in the dressing room, Ke Wanqing was combing Ke Qi's hair, while her brother Jiang Zhouyuan sat in a chair next to her, constantly nagging and teasing his friend.
"Qiqi, remember to stay away from him tonight!"
"He's a wolf in sheep's clothing!"
“Before, because you were still a minor, this kid had the desire but not the courage, and didn’t dare to do anything to you.”
"Now that you're an adult, he's probably plotting to drag you back to his lair!"
Upon hearing this, Ke Qi suppressed a laugh but said nothing.
"Alright, you're all set."
Ke Wanqing chuckled: "Gu Zhao was originally your sister's fiancé. Now that he's an adult, is it any of your business to have him dating?"
Ke Wanqing smiled gently and reached out to pinch her daughter's fair cheek.
"Besides, our Qiqi is so beautiful, she deserves a good boy like Gu Zhao. I wouldn't feel comfortable with anyone else."
After saying that, she put the diamond and emerald necklace worth hundreds of millions of yuan from the gift box around Ke Qi's neck.
“Honey, you’re an adult now. Although you’re still a little girl in Mom’s eyes, you’re a grown woman in a social sense.”
Ke Wanqing leaned closer and whispered in her ear, "So, regarding matters between men and women, Mom won't control you like before, but you must make sure to take precautions, okay?"
Upon hearing this, Ke Qi's ears instantly turned red.
"I understand, Mom."
"Hmm." Ke Wanqing took her hand and smiled, "Let's go, if we don't go down now, that kid Gu Zhao might really come and catch us himself."
"He wouldn't dare!" Jiang Zhouyuan jumped up and down. "This is my sister! If he dares to lay a hand on her, I'll beat him to death!"
"Alright, alright," Ke Wanqing said with a laugh, "Turn off that temper of yours. Go find yourself a girlfriend instead of constantly interfering with your sister's dating life."
"I'm just worried that Qiqi will get taken advantage of."
Jiang Zhouyuan retorted, "Gu Zhao and I grew up together. He's such a cunning guy. Our Qiqi is so innocent; she can't outsmart him. Mom, you #&@%..."
I won't listen, I won't listen, you're just spouting nonsense.
Helpless, Ke Wanqing led Ke Qi downstairs, letting her nagging son chatter on and on behind.
"Qiqi~"
Almost the instant Ke Qi stepped into the banquet hall, Gu Zhao came up and hugged her.
You look beautiful today!
The eighteen-year-old youth has lost some of the naivety he had four years ago; he is more mature and composed.
His already striking and three-dimensional features became even sharper and more angular.
He's grown much taller.
Keqi was so small in front of him that she was easily hugged.
"Thanks."
Looking at her handsome fiancé, Keqi no longer acted as reserved as a teenager, but boldly hugged him back.
We agreed to be best friends, but that was just a pretext he used to subtly persuade me.
What he wanted from beginning to end was a unique place by her side.
He concealed his purpose poorly, or rather, he didn't bother to hide it at all.
He was like this before he became an adult, and he became even more arrogant after he became an adult.
Where is my birthday present?
Keqi looked up at him, her eyes sparkling.
"Here."
Gu Zhao smiled and took out an exquisite little gift box from his suit pocket.
"Open it and take a look?" He stared intently at her with his dark eyes, and for some reason, Ke Qi felt that he was expecting something.
She then opened the box as he wished.
It is a diamond ring.
Exquisite and beautiful, it was neatly wrapped in velvet and shone brightly under the light.
Ke Qi's heart raced slightly. "Are you... are you proposing to me?"
"Um."
Gu Zhao gently kissed the tip of her nose, then picked up the diamond ring, knelt down in front of her, and said, "Will you marry me?"
Okay?
My brother was right after all; Gu Zhao is a wolf in sheep's clothing.
She had only just come of age when he proposed.
Unfortunately, Ke Qi was completely powerless to resist.
"good."
She heard herself speak in a completely unreserved voice.
The audience immediately erupted in applause and cheers.
Jiang Zhouyuan was the only one left in the corner, cursing and swearing, wishing he could strangle Gu Zhao, that cunning wolf cub who had run off with his younger sister.
Is this the only gift?
Ke Qi looked at the diamond ring on her ring finger and snorted, "A diamond ring for a person? I'm the gift, what a loss!"
"Of course not."
Gu Zhao put his arm around her slender waist and whispered in her ear, "The rest are in the Gu family's house, in your room. I'll take you to unpack them after the banquet."
Upon hearing this, Ke Qi smiled with satisfaction.
"good."
She is the daughter of the Jiang family and also the daughter of the Gu family, so naturally she has her own private room.
For her, going anywhere is like going home.
So after the banquet, she and Gu Zhao went back to the Gu family home and went to her room to unwrap the gifts.
Gu Zhao did not lie to her.
He did indeed give her a lot of gifts, piled up like a small mountain, so many that her hands were sore from unpacking them.
"There are also those that are given away every period."
Gu Zhao lazily propped his chin up and said, "But he said he has a surprise for you. Let's see if you can guess which one he sent?"
"Yeah?"
Ke Qi chuckled: "Then I'll have to be more careful and look at each one very closely."
As soon as she finished speaking, a beautifully framed photograph fell out of the box she had already opened.
It hit the ground with a loud bang.
Ke Qi felt sorry for him and immediately reached out to pick it up.
She was about to wipe it with her hand, but when her eyes fell on the photo, she suddenly froze, and then her pupils suddenly contracted.
Because the people in the photo were none other than her, Gu Zhao, and Gu Qi.
It's a family photo.
However, she and Gu Zhao look a little more mature in the photo than they do now.
Little Gu Qi was still a baby, nestled obediently in her and Gu Zhao's arms, his little tail sticking up, making him particularly eye-catching.
"this……"
Ke Qi's lips moved, but she was too shocked to utter a complete sentence for a long time.
At this moment, all the doubts that had been hidden in my heart for many years were explained.
No wonder she always felt an inexplicable sense of closeness to Qiqi.
No wonder Gu Qi is always confused and calls her "Mom" from time to time.
turn out to be……
"Qiqi is our baby."
Gu Zhao gently stroked the baby in the photo with his large hand, "Our own child."
So, taking this opportunity, he told her about Qiqi's time travel.
However, the five-year-old child was like an angel, rewriting her mother's fate and allowing her to escape the painful family of origin at an early age. Her teenage years were no longer filled with disappointment and loneliness. Fortunately, she grew up with the love and warmth of two families and made many sincere friends.
Tears fell silently.
Ke Qi suddenly stood up. "I'm going to find Qi Qi!"
But before she could even move, Gu Zhao pulled her into his arms.
Don't go.
Gu Zhao rubbed her head, his Adam's apple bobbing as he let out a sigh: "Even if we go, we won't be able to find it."
What does it mean that you can't find it even if you go?
Ke Qi's tears flowed even more profusely.
Although I didn't want to think about it that way, I just understood.
"Qiqi said that when he was five years old, on July 7th, he would face a fatal calamity that would cause him to drown and become a vegetable."
"If Mom and Dad have another child, they must not let him go out on that day."
As Gu Zhao spoke, her eyes gradually reddened, and she stopped talking.
So why did Qiqi in this time and space suddenly disappear?
Perhaps in that timeline, he was in a vegetative state for over four years and ultimately couldn't make it...
Her angel baby traveled a long way across time and space, braving hardships to help and redeem her parents, but ultimately could not save himself.
"Gu Zhao~"
Ke Qi cried very sadly, then suddenly thought of something, hooked her arms around his neck and said, "Then let's... let's have sex now, okay?"
"Once Qiqi is born, we'll have people look after him every day and never let him out of our protection. That way, nothing will happen!"
"Gu Zhao, please, I want to have sex with you again~"
As Ke Qi spoke, she haphazardly pulled at Gu Zhao's clothes and kissed him.
Gu Zhao kissed away her tears and agreed, "Okay."
Even if it's good, it won't work.
Keqi is a succubus, so no matter how anxious you are, you have to wait for her to awaken and for her to finally enter heat at the age of twenty-one.
However, Ke Qi and Gu Zhao only discovered this problem halfway through their work.
"asshole!"
Keqi lay on his chest, drenched in sweat, crying and cursing, "Why didn't you say so sooner?"
Gu Zhao's breathing was heavy as he kissed her lingeringly, then slid to his knees and said, "I'm sorry, I forgot."
Ke Qi: "Then let's not do it. You can leave."
Gu Zhao: "No."
"There's no reason to stop halfway through."
He pulled her into his arms, like a wolf cub, and, while licking and kissing her fair nape, said:
"Good girl, just think of this as a rehearsal for when Qiqi arrives in the future."
"So baby, let's do it one more time..."
