Quick transmigration, she doesn't love anyone!

When Zhou Xiaxia woke up the next day, it was already noon. It was also because she had been too noisy the night before.

As I was leaving, I peeked into the room and saw Wen Shitang talking to someone in the study; it was Cheng Shun.

Zhou Xiaxia peeked out from under the door and greeted them in a friendly manner before carefully closing the door and going downstairs for dinner.

A short while later, Wen Shitang and Cheng Shun came down one after the other.

Zhou Xiaxia smiled sweetly when she saw the person who came.

"Take care, Brother Cheng~"

Cheng Shun was Wen Shitang's right-hand man. Zhou Xiaxia knew that her family wasn't exactly innocent. Although things weren't as chaotic as they were ten years ago, it wasn't exactly a well-ordered society governed by the rule of law.

In the end, she was just a spoiled brat with a good life. She was a good-for-nothing, but she was only spoiled at home and would cry at home. However, she was very polite to the people under Wen Shitang.

Cheng Shun also greeted her politely. After watching him leave, Zhou Xiaxia glanced at Wen Shitang, who had arrived late.

"Are you going to handle business at home again?"

The word "again" is very clever; every time she gets into a lot of trouble, Wen Shitang has to stay home and watch over her for a few days.

Wen Shitang didn't speak, but gave her a look that said, "What do you think?"

Zhou Xiaxia understood, "Actually, you're quite busy too, so don't worry about me. I'll behave myself these next few days."

She meant it sincerely; even for the sake of a vacation, she wouldn't cause any more trouble.

Wen Shitang asked doubtfully, "Really?"

Zhou Xiaxia raised four fingers, her eyes resolute.

"I swear, you'd better hurry up and take care of those things. I want to go on vacation as soon as possible."

Wen Shitang is indeed very busy, and now he has to make time for things, as it's inconvenient to do many things at home.

But seeing her chasing me away like that, I felt a little uncomfortable.

He glanced at her outfit today and said, seemingly casually:

"Want to go out?"

Zhou Xiaxia nodded casually.

Wen Shitang continued, "How long were you gone?"

He actually wanted to ask what she was doing and who she was with, but after what happened last night, he didn't want her to feel like he was meddling too much and cause her to rebel again.

Zhou Xiaxia looked up at him with a strange expression. He was so long-winded. Wasn't there a curfew? Why did he have to worry about so much?

But knowing she needed to behave better lately, she smiled obediently, thinking she understood perfectly, and answered:

"Don't worry, I know. I'm a spoiled brat who needs to be home by nine o'clock."

These words left Wen Shitang speechless for a moment.

Zhou Xiaxia ignored him, got up, waved, and left.

Wen Shitang watched her leave helplessly, then remained silent for a while before dialing a phone number.

"Cheng Shun, arrange for someone to follow Xia Xia."

......

In the library, Zhou Xiaxia was huddled in a corner playing games, her wrists burning slightly. The person who didn't belong to the novel's world had appeared.

She put down what she was holding, looked up, and turned her neck.

Seeing that she had stopped what she was doing, Gu Xiyan said softly:

"Want to go out and stretch your legs?"

He was afraid she'd get bored; she was unusually well-behaved, and he figured she must be going stir-crazy.

Zhou Xiaxia shook her head. She was too lazy to move. Staying at home was boring, but going out always made her want to cause trouble.

It's easier to stay next to Gu Xiyan; at least he's quiet, unlike Wen Shitang who's always bossing her around.

Zhou Xiaxia continued to bury herself in her game, leaving Gu Xiyan with no choice but to get busy again.

After a while, Zhou Xiaxia looked up and saw his serious expression. She suddenly thought of Wen Shitang. The two of them were very serious when they were busy.

Her profile is beautiful, her eyelashes are beautiful, she's beautiful from head to toe.

The more I look at it, the more pleasing it becomes. And when I look at myself on the screen, I look good too.

Zhou Xiaxia couldn't help but sigh, "Indeed, the Wen family members are the most handsome. Gu Xiyan can be considered half a member of the Wen family."

Suddenly, she raised her hand and pinched Gu Xiyan's cheek.

Gu Xiyan looked up and glanced at her helplessly.

Zhou Xiaxia's mischievous hands kept moving, because they felt really good.

I got a little angry while I was pinching it.

With such a beautiful face, why can't she kiss him?! If she doesn't kiss him, who will?!

But Wen Shitang is too old-fashioned. He insists that she likes someone and that she can only date someone else if she likes them. If that doesn't work, then she should date Gu Xiyan first.

But what if you meet someone even more attractive after you've started dating?

She's always had everything she wanted since she was a child, so why should she have to make a choice now?

Zhou Xiaxia grew angrier the more she thought about it, and suddenly her hand tightened. Then she angrily withdrew her hand and started playing the game, leaving Gu Xiyan completely bewildered.

I wanted to ask him, but he was in a bad mood and ignored me completely.

Gu Xiyan looked at the person with a sullen face and found it somewhat amusing. Thinking of how she suddenly bit her own neck yesterday, a dark glint flashed in his eyes.

Perhaps, she really is starting to understand.

If that's the case, then he'll have to back down from his plan. There's a perfectly good road ahead, so there's no need to take any risks.

Gu Xiyan knew all too well that as long as Zhou Xiaxia didn't fall for him, Wen Shitang would never hand her over to him.

Even if she falls in love with someone else, with Wen Shitang around, he can only watch as she marries someone else.

Why should I? Gu Xiyan was unwilling to accept it.

The internal strife within the Gu family was no less intense than that of the Wen family back then, but unfortunately, no one like Wen Shitang emerged from among them.

Before becoming Zhou Xiaxia's study companion, he did not have a good life in the Gu family.

Yes, Gu Xiyan knew very well that he was Zhou Xiaxia's study companion.

But so what?

He would always remember the first time they met. Zhou Xiaxia was so small, yet she was carrying a stick taller than herself, protecting him as they fought against those figures much taller than her.

At first, they were no match for her, but later those people became afraid because Zhou Xiaxia was ruthless and fearless when she got angry.

How did it end? Wen Shitang arrived, and the elders of the Gu family followed. It seemed that for the first time they had discovered the bullying and pranks among the younger generation, and they forced them to apologize.

It's ridiculous. Who is Wen Shitang? Those who dared to lay a hand on Zhou Xiaxia naturally didn't have a good ending. From then on, his status in the Gu family seemed to have been reversed.

Gu Xiyan knew that all of this was brought about by the Wen family. Wen Shitang valued his obedience and composure, and he always thought that he would follow Zhou Xiaxia's wishes forever.

But there's no such thing as a free lunch. He couldn't keep Zhou Xiaxia forever by being obedient and compliant. She had too many things on her mind, and he could accept all of that.

But what if one day she doesn't need him anymore, or she falls in love with someone else?

He cannot accept it.

Gu Xiyan knew that Wen Shitang did not want him to be an ambitious person, because if he was ambitious, he would not be suitable to stay by Zhou Xiaxia's side.

But so what? Only power, power that can surpass Wen Shitang's power, can allow him to grasp everything he wants.

Is he an ingrate? Perhaps he is.

But he didn't care; if anyone was to blame, it was the Gu family for lacking any sense of morality.

Gu Xiyan knew clearly that it was the Wen family that helped him turn his life around back then, but the only person who stood in front of him and protected him from beginning to end was Zhou Xiaxia.

From then on, he followed her in her foolish ways, took the punishment for her, and shielded her from danger...

They grew up together, so they should stay together forever.
