I don't believe that people have good intentions for no reason.
Whether it's an exchange of benefits or mutual ulterior motives, that's the survival rule I firmly believe in.
My second sister, Jiao Huachang, passed away, and my father became seriously ill.
I know there must be more to this than meets the eye, but I have no interest in finding out what those secrets are.
I finally have the opportunity to break free from the control of the Jiao family.
The carefully planned escape was executed relatively smoothly.
I waited at the traffic light, the sunlight dazzling, making me feel like a moonlit lamp in a snowdrift.
The moonlight in the snowdrift is very bright; I always dream of it, just as I often dream of blood slowly seeping into the soil.
Being a little down is fine. Whether I'm busy or leisurely, the feeling of being ignored allows me to briefly breathe in the air of freedom.
I've wanted to leave the Jiao family for a long time.
When my father married Mi Yang and brought Jiao Yuwei back, I really wanted to blow up this house.
That's true, how can you call a place you're not familiar with home?
At their wedding banquet, I played videos of Jiao Cheng's weddings with each of his wives.
I enjoy seeing the complex expressions on everyone's faces; it makes me feel like I've won something.
Since then, I haven't been back to the old house many times. I just hope that my whole family will go to hell together, including me.
The Jiao family members do not deserve a peaceful end.
The traffic light finally turned green, and I could finally end this long wait.
Pedestrians were hurrying by, and suddenly, with a thud, my shoulder was bumped and hurt terribly.
The girl didn't attract much of my attention.
But she seems to be a difficult character.
After being chased all the way, I had to take a closer look at the girl blocking my way.
Sunglasses and a hat were removed from her face, like a newborn chick just peeled from its shell.
Sweat-dampened hair stuck to his head, and his face, which should have been flushed from the heat, was deathly pale, making his dark circles under his eyes stand out even more.
She then pointed out that I was being followed.
I couldn't let the plan fall through, so I had to subdue her as quickly as possible.
But her weak and feeble movements left her utterly defenseless.
How could someone like this be sent by the eldest or second eldest brother?
She personally verified her mind-reading ability.
She said—I am her goal.
...
I followed her back to her little courtyard as if possessed.
It must be because I need to use her mind-reading ability to escape the tracking network.
The courtyard is beautiful, with a refreshing grape aroma.
She said those astonishing words, "I want to take care of you," without flinching in her eyes.
Sunlight filtered through the grapevines, falling on her eyes as she gazed at me, making her look like a little deer fairy.
Lu Yu is her name.
It turns out that the female basketball star I'd only heard of once was her.
For me, a star player in a slump is of no benefit.
Rejecting her was a choice I made without any hesitation.
Before I left, I saw her swallow the sour grapes, and a sour feeling welled up in my heart as well.
The escape plan failed.
Once again confined to the Jiao family home, Lu Yu might be my last glimmer of hope.
Having the ability to read minds, I am her only way to block out her true thoughts. Our family structure is so simple that she is the only person in the family.
In conclusion, she is a suitable candidate for a sham marriage.
I think a swap of interests is perfectly reasonable.
marry.
Fortunately, she wasn't opposed to it.
Whether the marriage lasts a year or six months, I don't really care.
However, the reason she gave was the Olympics.
Can we really make it back to the Olympics in just one year? I think that's wishful thinking, but it's none of my business.
Before I could finish speaking, I could hear her breathing.
Can a girl be this carefree?
When we met again this time, she seemed to be in better health.
The sunset must have a magical power.
...
Public opinion began to rise, and the plan gradually got on track.
As I listened to her whispering about the thoughts of those around us, I secretly suppressed a fleeting pang of guilt that occasionally welled up in my heart.
I feel guilty for no reason.
It's a mutual consent process.
I said to myself.
Occasionally, I would see her dribbling on an open-air basketball court in an attempt to return to the court.
It's as if as long as I open my arms, the little fish will swim into my heart like light.
The fountain outside the scenic restaurant is illuminated.
I... kissed her.
Her lips were unexpectedly cold.
Just like the first time I touched her hand.
But... something warm intruded.
It disturbs people's minds and spirits.
Like the occasional scent of raspberries wafting to your nose.
The heartfelt words from the Jiao family's old house felt like a resounding slap in the face.
The suspicious circumstances surrounding my mother's death made my years of burying my head in the sand seem like utter absurdity.
The original plan has changed, and its impact on Luyu can only be considered as a secondary issue for me.
The marriage certificate stamped with a red seal and the trending topic of "ribbonfish" on the blacklist are making people even more upset.
Lu Yu brought home a kitten.
A person who has studied human nature for many years has not only refrained from taking revenge on the world, but has instead spread kindness far and wide.
This doesn't match my original assumptions.
I seem to be having more and more insomnia...
What is wrong with me.
The wedding on Shaohua Island was grand and solemn, but it wasn't a wedding in the true sense for us.
I am very clear about that.
By opening a small window into old stories, we can get a general direction for what's to come.
I have to confront Lu Yu about what will happen if she changes her mind...
It's not bad, at least it's good to her...
But she said she was afraid.
But she said she would help me.
She said I was like a kitten.
I think she's like a little fish.
I don't know when,
It swam into my heart.
