Rebirth: Regaining Joyful Moments-Chapter 650 - 652: Second Brother is Here

Station.

Gu Hai and Fang Yue talked a lot before boarding the train.

Xu Qinghe and his wife looked at Xu Nian’an and Ji Ying with uneasy expressions. Xu Qinghe seriously said, "Nian’an, I think the reminder you gave us was especially right. We must clarify this matter." novelbuddy-cσ๓

"Dad, Mom, please don’t spook the snake," Xu Nian’an quickly reminded them.

Xu Qinghe glanced at him, wanting to say that this expression was too harsh. After all, they were Nianhua’s biological parents.

"Ahem." Ji Ying cleared her throat and said, "If the Gu Family really has other motives for recognizing me, I don’t care about them."

Her eyes downcast, she didn’t have the slightest fondness for the Gu Family, even harboring resentment.

For Gu Mingzhu’s sake, the Gu Family caused her family’s ruin and demise. Although she had avenged this in her past life, in this life, if the Gu Family harbored the same intentions, they were sorely mistaken, and Ji Ying would not be so foolish as to not realize it this time.

"Nianhua, I think we shouldn’t jump to conclusions. Perhaps it’s all a misunderstanding," Ji Ying chimed in. Her biological mother had abandoned her since she was a child, and now, twenty-one years later, she came looking for Nianhua due to other reasons.

It wasn’t just about Ji Ying’s feelings; even thinking about this matter made her feel tight inside, feeling it unfair for Nianhua.

Ji Ying was obedient, sensible, and graceful, as well as intelligent—a wonderful daughter. How could the Gu Family mistreat her like this?

"Mom, it’s okay, I’m doing well," Ji Ying earnestly said. She continued, "As for the matters of the Gu Family, just pretend you don’t know anything. Nian’an and I will have someone look into it thoroughly."

"But..." Ji Ying felt uneasy.

Xu Nian’an patted his chest and said, "Dad, Mom, please rest assured, I will handle this matter perfectly."

Xu Nian’an repeatedly reassured them before finally getting Xu Qinghe and his wife on the train.

"Hai, why do I feel like I said something wrong?" Fang Yue, sitting on the train, felt something was amiss.

Gu Hai shook his head. Nothing Fang Yue said was wrong; their whole family was looking forward to Nianhua coming home.

...

"Little sister, don’t overthink it. Nian’an will never let you be bullied," Xu Nian’an said as he walked Ji Ying to the school gate, constantly trying to amuse her, fearing she might be upset because of the Gu Family.

"Nian’an, I’m actually happy."

However, Ji Ying’s words did not convince Xu Nian’an at all. He said, "Nian’an will have someone look into it thoroughly."

"Who does Nian’an want to ask to look into it?" Ji Ying asked, curious.

"Ling Dong." Xu Nian’an was originally reluctant to trouble people, but Ling Dong had been spending a lot of time in South City recently, and his capabilities, Xu Nian’an felt, were superior to his.

The Gu Family was wealthy; this matter had to be handled impeccably.

Xu Nian’an didn’t want any mishaps. Ling Dong was Pei Yicheng’s man, and even though he didn’t want Pei Yicheng to find out about this issue, compared to his little sister, Xu Nian’an thought he could put everything else aside.

If the Gu Family really had bad intentions, Xu Nian’an would definitely not agree.

"Nian’an, thank you," Ji Ying said, lifting her lips, feeling extremely warmed by Xu Nian’an’s concern.

"I’m your big brother."

Xu Nian’an naturally said, "Don’t worry, with me around, no one can bully you."

"Mhm," Ji Ying nodded happily, enjoying the feeling of being pampered by her big brother.
