Chapter 268 - 269: Ye Xiaobei, you really have a big heart!
Startled for a moment, she suddenly chuckled, tilting her head to look at Gu Junzhu: “You’re right, it doesn’t really matter whether I know the truth or not. Regardless, they’re my brothers who saved me and Xiao Shu’s lives.”
“There’s no rule that says cousins must be kind to each other. Take Jiang Siyou and Jiang Lingyu for example; they are also Brother Lan and Brother Li’s cousins, and yet, Brother Lan and Brother Li don’t give them a second glance!”
Reflecting on it, perhaps Jiang Siyou and Jiang Lingyu joining the Star Palace wasn’t a coincidence, maybe Brother Lan or Brother Li were manipulating things from behind the scenes.
If Gu Junzhu suspects her father was killed by Jiang Zhengxing, then Uncle Two and Brother Lan, and Brother Li might suspect the same thing.
In the Ye family, when Brother Lan was punishing her, she could always see deep hatred in his icy gaze.
She used to think it was her imagination.
But now thinking back, was Brother Lan under the impression that she was Jiang Zhengxing’s daughter, hence directing his hatred towards Jiang Zhengxing onto her?
So, once Brother Lan found out her father was Jiang Zhengwei and not Jiang Zhengxing, he apologized…
After all, during her five years in the Ye family, she was punished by Brother Lan so much that she couldn’t get off the bed on several occasions.
Even though her punishments were indeed due to her being young and not understanding the rules, committing mistakes, would a typical family be so harsh in punishing a teenage girl?
She closed her eyes, feeling utterly confused.
She couldn’t describe what she was feeling.
Finding out that Brother Lan and Brother Li are her biological cousins, she should’ve been happy.
The greatest benefit of being biological cousins with Brother Lan and Brother Li is that no matter who they date in the future, their girlfriends won’t have to guard against her like against a burglar.
Initially, when her life-saving chocolate was swapped out, her suspects were her two brothers’ girlfriends.
Brother Lan said that he would handle the matter and she didn’t need to worry, so she never asked about it again.
She wonders if it has been resolved yet?
When the person who swapped out her chocolate and intended to harm her realizes she and Brother Lan and Brother Li are actually cousins with no potential for romance, the actions she took were completely unnecessary, and she would have to pay a heavy price for it, she might go insane.
But that’s fine.
At least, through this situation, a ruthless woman could be eliminated from her brothers’ lives.
What kind of a good woman would murder out of jealousy?
She’d rather have her brothers stay single for life than marry such a woman!
Thinking along these lines, her mood suddenly improved.
She reached over to turn off the light, turned her back to Gu Junzhu, and said, “Time to sleep!”
Gu Junzhu: “…Ye Xiaobei, you’re not going to secretly cry in the dark, are you?” “Doi seem like the type?” It only took a moment for Ye Xingbei to bounce back, “You’re right, everyone has their considerations and situations they can’t avoid. All I need to know is that my brothers genuinely care about me. The rest doesn’t matter!”
Gu Junzhu reluctantly praised: “Ye Xiaobei, you really have a big heart!”
“Just so-so!” It’s mainly because she couldn’t figure out many things right now.
The more she thought about it, the more confused she became.
Like a ball of yarn that’s been entangled by a cat, it’s impossible to unravel.
The more she thought, the worse her headache became, so she decided not to think about it.
