After my luck was stolen, I led my whole family to defy fate and change our destiny.

When Gu Linglong was still in her white tiger form, she happened to encounter two hunters in the mountains. The two hunters were sitting on the mountaintop roasting chicken.

The fat chicken was slowly roasted over a low flame, the oil dripping into the firelight and making a crackling sound, along with an enticing aroma. Gu Linglong had never smelled such a delicious scent before.

The two hunters were initially frightened and shocked, but they found that Gu Linglong completely ignored them, staring intently at the roast chicken with a somewhat bewildered look in her eyes.

The hunter mustered his courage and tried to speak to her, "If you eat roast chicken, you can't eat us anymore, okay?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Linglong immediately started playing PUBG.

The hunters exchanged a glance. They could understand speech? That was truly eye-opening!

Based on their experience, this might be a once-in-a-century beast that has gained sentience.

One of the hunters tossed a fruit coated with a potent poison to Gu Linglong: "Come down the mountain and hunt with us. You just need to scare the prey."

And just like that, Gu Linglong was tricked.

This beast is somewhat clever, but not much...

From then on, Gu Linglong lived a life of jumping through hoops like a white tiger, shaking a large rock with her tiger's mouth, and deceiving people. Under the influence of the strong medicine, Gu Linglong could not run far at all.

If they didn't cooperate, they would be beaten and denied food.

Ultimately, whether they were rescued or recruited by the Heavenly Court, they developed the habit of snacking at any time.

I've developed an obsession with food; I can't help it, I'm terrified of being hungry...

Gu Linglong gradually stopped crying, but she was still sobbing, clearly having suffered a lot of grievances.

Hearing this, Gu Liyao felt a tightness in his chest. He really had a bad temper; why did he have to hit his little sister?

The others vaguely heard about her past, and their hearts ached.

Xiuxiu turned away to wipe her tears. She couldn't understand how anyone could bear to hit her daughter, who was so adorable.

She took Gu Linglong from Gu Yu'an's hands and gently comforted her: "Nannan, you are too young to eat. When you can eat, Mother will cook for you every day, okay?"

"When you grow up, whatever you want to eat, Mommy will make it for you."

【Oh, Mother, that's wonderful! Mother, please love me!】

The three brothers: Little sister, you're really young! You agreed too soon!

When Gu Linglong woke up from her afternoon nap, she heard a servant report that the madam's sister-in-law had arrived.

Isn't her mother's sister-in-law her aunt?

She has two aunts, one of whom is her father's twin sister, Gu Xinyi.

One was born to Gu Chenshi, Gu Hanyue.

Which aunt is it? Mommy, I want to go! I want to go!

Su Xiuran tapped Gu Linglong's nose: "Let's carry Miss Gu; she hasn't met her aunt yet."

"Yes"

On the way to see her aunt, Gu Linglong fell asleep again.

In the main hall, Gu Xinyi sat on a chair, with Lu Li standing behind her. Gu Xinyi gripped her dress tightly with both hands, looking somewhat uneasy.

As luck would have it, on the day of her niece's full-day celebration, her mother-in-law fell ill and insisted that she take care of her, while her husband was away on official business.

I wonder if my sister-in-law will blame me.

"Sister-in-law"

Hello, Auntie.

The three Gu brothers stepped forward and bowed.

“good good”

Seeing that her three nephews were still handsome and refined, and had not been discouraged by their eldest brother's imprisonment, Gu Xinyi felt a sense of pride. These were the fine sons of the Gu family!

"Sister-in-law, let me see my little niece."

Upon hearing this, Chunhe carried Gu Linglong to Gu Xinyi, who happily unpacked the bundle and took out the little clothes inside.

She made them herself, along with little hats and shoes. She picked up a piece of clothing and held it up to Gu Linglong.

"Huh~ Is it because my clothes are too small, or is Linglong just too tall? Even though I made them a size larger on purpose, they're still too small."

Gu Linglong: "..."

My sister-in-law wanted to come when she gave birth, but her mother-in-law forced her to stay at home. Her old clothes were definitely too small, so she specially made them bigger this time, but they were still too small.

My little niece is so beautiful, so fair and chubby, she's the girl of my dreams!

Su Xiuran touched her nose, looking at Gu Linglong with a smile in her eyes. She is a little chubby!

"It's okay, I'll switch to diapers later."

Gu Xinyi put down the clothes, took Su Xiuran's hand, her brows furrowed with guilt, and her eyes slightly reddened. She placed a money box into Su Xiuran's hand.

"Sister-in-law, I'm very worried about what happened to my brother. This is a token of my concern; please accept it."

Su Xiuran pursed her lips and opened the box with some doubt. Inside were about two hundred taels of silver and a stack of small denomination silver notes, which looked like they had been saved up over time.

In addition, there are some pieces of jewelry.

Su Xiuran's heart skipped a beat. She recognized these pieces of jewelry; some of them were part of her dowry!

Su Xiuran knew her sister-in-law had a tough time and genuinely felt sorry for her. After so many years of marriage, she hadn't been able to conceive, and her in-laws didn't treat her well. They'd spent a lot of money on medicine.

I wonder how long she's kept these things?

While she felt heartbroken, she was also relieved. Fortunately, her sister-in-law hadn't deliberately distanced herself like the others; otherwise, her husband would have been heartbroken if he had known.

The bond between twins is definitely different.

Seeing that Su Xiuran remained silent, Gu Xinyi assumed she was dissatisfied and quickly explained, "Sister-in-law, I didn't skip the baby banquet on purpose. It's just that my mother-in-law wouldn't let it go, and my husband was away on business."

Seeing that she was almost in tears, Su Xiuran quickly patted her hand: "I received your letter, isn't that a coincidence? Your sister-in-law isn't mad at you."

"Really?"

"real"

Gu Xinyi breathed a sigh of relief; it was good that her sister-in-law hadn't blamed her.

Gu Linglong woke up with her big eyes wide open. Was that her aunt's voice?

Just as Gu Xinyi was about to ask about her older brother's situation, she heard a childish voice.

It wasn't a coincidence at all. My aunt's mother-in-law was faking illness on purpose, just to avoid my aunt coming to our house and causing them trouble.

Gu Xinyi's mind went blank for a moment, and she almost lost her balance. Her gaze fell on Gu Linglong.

Was she hallucinating?

Did she hear what her little niece was thinking? She shook her head, trying to shake off this absurd idea.

My uncle didn't go out on any work either; he deliberately hid, leaving you to deal with my mother-in-law alone while he hid in Ping'an Lane.

Gu Xinyi was stunned. Impossible, impossible. She and her husband had been in love for many years. Her husband would never lie to her.

Su Xiuran pulled Gu Xinyi down to sit and pushed the box back, saying, "Sister-in-law still has some savings and doesn't need it for the time being. You should take it back."

Gu Xinyi's hand tightened. "Sister-in-law, are you worried it's not enough? But this is the most I can offer right now."

Su Xiuran smiled and said, "Of course not. My family really does have money. If I really need it, I will definitely ask you."

"All right"

Standing behind him, Lu Li secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the Gu family had the self-awareness to not take the money. When he saw Gu Xinyi give so much money to the Gu family, it felt like his flesh was being torn out.

All of these will be his in the future!

Gu Xinyi smiled and pulled Lu Li out from behind her: "Sister-in-law, there's something else I need to discuss today. In a few days, I plan to have Lu Li adopted into my family. You'll be my witness then."

Upon hearing this, Su Xiuran sized up Lu Li. He was handsome and fair-skinned, with an elegant demeanor. However, when he recalled his eldest son's reaction to Lu Li's behavior at the academy, he frowned.

Gu Linglong was extremely anxious when she heard that her aunt wanted to adopt Lu Li, and her chubby little hands were outstretched and clawed.

"Auntie, no, you can't..."
