This is the entertainment industry! No tantrums or shouting allowed!

Gu Yan approached, his gaze falling on Wen Yao's wet eyes, and said irritably:

"Did you pee in your eyes again?"

Wen Yao turned her face away: "I drank too much water."

A shawl was thrown over her head, completely covering the girl's face.

"Hmm..." Wen Yao fiddled with her shawl, only to find that the tassels on it were tangled with her hair. She busied herself for a while but didn't know what she was doing.

"so stupid."

Despite his complaints, Gu Yan's body language betrayed his true intentions as he helped Wen Yao untie the knot and wrapped it around her neck twice.

What was supposed to be a warm and beautiful scene was ruined by Gu Yan's words:

"Don't let it freeze and cause diarrhea."

Wen Yao's lips twitched slightly: "...Thank you."

The brother and sister sat side by side, listening to the sound of the waves crashing.

There were no words for a moment.

Wen Yao would occasionally light up the screen, staring blankly at the number she knew by heart but could never get through.

She glanced at him, and Gu Yan sighed.

After he sighed again, Wen Yao turned her face and glared at him.

Gu Yan coughed lightly, breaking the silence:

"I have to say, the sea at night is quite scary."

Wen Yao: ...It's obvious I'm just making conversation.

"Brother, just say what you want to say, don't make things so complicated."

Gu Yan looked directly into her eyes: "I hope you are happy, even if your happiness has nothing to do with me."

In short, he completely baffled Wen Yao.

After being stunned for a good ten seconds, Wen Yao rubbed her arms:

"Why are you suddenly saying such disgusting things? Are you still playing Truth or Dare? Is this your punishment...?"

Gu Yan chuckled softly, tilted his head back, and took a sip of the beer he had brought: "If you say so, then so be it."

"Is there any more wine?" Wen Yao asked.

Gu Yan pulled out another jar as if by magic.

The brother and sister drank casually, and perhaps because they were drunk, they were more likely to speak their minds, and their conversations became more in-depth than usual.

Wen Yao finally asked the biggest question she had ever had since her rebirth:

"Brother, under what circumstances do you think a person would give up their life?"

Gu Yan frowned: "Why do you ask that?"

"I was just asking," Wen Yao said casually. "Never mind if you don't want to say."

Gu Yan remained silent for a long time, so long that Wen Yao thought he wouldn't answer the question, but suddenly she heard his deep voice:

"It must be... that there is no one to rely on, nothing to care about, and utter despair for this world."

Wen Yao gripped the can tightly. Did Gu Yan, before his rebirth... feel the same way?

No… she still couldn’t believe that Gu Yan would choose suicide…

“I respect everyone’s choices, whether to live or die, it is their own freedom.” Then Gu Yan changed the subject, “But I will never give up my life, I must live well.”

Wen Yao suddenly looked up, her eyes shining with an astonishing light.

"Why are you looking at me like that? In your eyes, am I such a fragile person?"

"So... even if you're attacked online, questioned, and betrayed, you would never give up on your life, right?"

"Isn't that obvious?" Gu Yan gulped down another half-bottle of wine. "Besides, what will you do if I die?"

"……Eh?"

Wen Yao was stunned.

“We are the two people in this world with the deepest blood ties besides our parents.” Gu Yan’s tone was extremely matter-of-fact. “Good people don’t live long, but evil people live for a thousand years. With me always causing you trouble, you won’t be lonely.”

"Little sister, I'm your older brother."
