The Princess Agents Want a Divorce

Seeing her tears, Feng Rou'er was at a loss. "Xi'er, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

"Xi'er, tell your mother and brother if you feel unwell. Your brother will go find Doctor Qi to take a look at you." Gu Yunyang asked anxiously.

Gu Fengyuan, who had been silent for a long time, frowned. "Is Xi'er feeling unwell? Father will send someone to invite Mr. Qi right away."

Seeing the genuine concern these people showed her, Ling Xi felt a surge of emotion. She wasn't usually a sentimental person, but this feeling was so pure that she had no reason to refuse. However, she guessed that it was probably some lingering emotions from the original owner that made her so easily moved. She thought that these people must really care about the original owner to still have an influence on her after they left!

It's alright, Mother, Father, Brother, Xi'er just finds the medicine too bitter.

Oh dear! You child, you really scared your mother like that.

Hehe, Mom, you forgot that your little sister hates taking medicine the most. Last time she had to put a whole jar of honey in her medicine before she would drink it!

Only after her son reminded her did Feng Rou'er realize that the child was most afraid of hardship.

Yes, how could Mother forget? She's getting old and getting all flustered. Huaying, quickly go to the small kitchen and get another jar of honey.

Hua Ying responded and hurriedly ran to the small kitchen next door.

A moment later, Huaying walked in from outside, carrying a large white porcelain jar with a celadon base.

Gu Lingxi couldn't help but roll her eyes. Drinking a small bowl of medicine and eating a large jar of honey, which weighed a pound or two, was she sure she wouldn't get diabetes?

Gu Yunyang excitedly took the honey, opened the lid, and handed it to Ling Xi. "Little sister, this is the newest honey from Honey Cloud Workshop this year! Come on, try it. Hmm, this jar should be enough for you to finish your medicine, right? Oh! If it's not enough, I'll go get you some more."

Gu Lingxi was dumbfounded. Was this really her brother? Was he trying to seduce her with sweetness?

Okay, I'll forgive him this time since he looks so sincere. Dude, one spoonful is enough, it'll be too sweet and the medicine won't work!

"Huh? Then why did you eat the whole can before?" Gu Yunyang scratched his head in confusion.

Gu Lingxi thought to herself, "How would my sister have known before? Anyway, my sister would never do such a thing."

"Yang'er, quickly make your sister drink her medicine, or she'll catch a cold," Gu Yuanfeng reminded her.

After Gu Lingxi finished drinking the medicine, Feng Rou'er gently wiped the medicine from the corner of Gu Lingxi's mouth with a handkerchief and then placed a cushion on Gu Lingxi's waist.

Gu Yunyang also came forward to tuck the blanket around Gu Lingxi. Feeling this genuine care and love, Gu Lingxi's heart, which had been cold and lonely for many years, softened a little, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously turned up in a smile!

If these are her family in this life, she thinks it's not bad, and she's willing to protect this simple yet warm family bond.

Looking at his younger sister's sweet and charming smile, Gu Yunyang felt a pang of sadness in his heart. How unfair was fate that such a beautiful person as his sister was now...

Alas! I wonder if the Prince Li will despise my sister's disfigured appearance, and whether she will be happy marrying him?

"Xi'er, it's all my fault for not protecting you today. I'm so useless, letting you suffer so much!" Gu Yunyang's eyes darkened, a heavy feeling settling in his heart. "Xi'er, if you knew your face was ruined, would you resent your brother? I'm so useless. From now on, I will work harder to practice my skills and never let anyone bully you again!" Gu Yunyang made a silent vow, his hands involuntarily clenching into fists.

"Xi'er, do you blame your brother for not protecting you well?"

Looking at Gu Yunyang, who was filled with self-reproach, she felt a surge of inexplicable emotion. This was what family was all about! "Brother, how could I blame you! The situation must have been critical at the time, and you were too busy taking care of yourself. If you feel guilty, just make it up to me in the future!" Gu Lingxi winked playfully.

Seeing his younger sister's mischievous antics, Gu Yunyang couldn't help but reach out and affectionately pat her head, saying, "Xi'er, tell me, how do you want your brother to make it up to you? Don't ask for too much! If your brother can't do it, your little sister will cry!"

"You're the one who's going to cry! Do you think I'm that weak?" Gu Lingxi rolled her eyes helplessly!

Ugh! It's so frustrating that someone as mature as me has to pretend to be childish with you! But what can I do? He's the original owner's brother! And this body is only a teenager!

Oh dear, so she pretended to be angry and said, "From now on, whenever I'm bored, I'll punish you by making you play with me and buy me delicious food! And if I'm bored and want to go out and see the world, you have to be my protector! Beat all those mad bees and butterflies who want to hurt me so badly they won't dare to bully me anymore, okay?"

After hearing this, everyone in the room burst into laughter.

"Haha, protector of flowers, what a great term! Before Xi'er has a suitable husband to protect her, brother will definitely fulfill this responsibility! I'm just afraid that Xi'er will only want her lover and not brother! Hahahahahaha."

A series of laughs followed from Gu Yunyang's mouth. "You, you bad brother! Xi'er doesn't want to talk to you anymore, you're making fun of Xi'er." Gu Lingxi lowered her head, pretending to be shy. This Gu Yunyang dared to ridicule her! Just wait, there's plenty of time to see if I won't make you pay!

Gu Yunyang reached out and pinched Gu Lingxi's little nose again. "Okay, it was your fault. I won't make fun of our little Xi'er next time. Once Xi'er is better, you can punish your brother however you want."

Okay, you said it yourself, and with Daddy and Mommy as witnesses, you can't deny it.

Watching his two children play and frolic, Gu Fengyuan felt comforted. However, he still maintained a stern face and said to them seriously, "You can play however you want in the manor, but you can't go outside before you come of age. Today's incident is a lesson! Yang'er, you must keep a close eye on your sister and make sure she doesn't follow her lead again!" Hearing his father's words, Gu Yunyang nodded and said, "Yes, I will follow your teachings, Father. I will not take my sister out of the manor to cause trouble in the future!"

Gu Lingxi secretly pursed her lips. Sigh! Her ancient life hadn't even officially begun before her father had already placed her under house arrest! How tragic! But her soul was that of a pure modern person, so whether they could keep her locked up or not was none of their business. Once she recovered, she'd give them a good thrashing!

"Alright, now that Xi'er is awake and out of danger, let's go and let her rest properly."

"Hua Ying, take good care of your young lady. If anything goes wrong, you will be punished according to family rules!" Gu Fengyuan ordered in a deep voice.

"Yes! This servant will do her best to take good care of Miss, General!"

After giving his instructions, Gu Fengyuan left the room first, followed by Feng Rou'er. Gu Yunyang winked at Gu Lingxi and smiled, saying, "Then brother's leaving too. You should rest after you finish your medicine! Brother will come to see you again tomorrow! Don't secretly cry, okay?"

Before Gu Lingxi could even retaliate, he vanished in a flash. Gu Lingxi clenched her little fist in frustration. "You little brat, you gotta be quick!"
