With a cheat code, she travels through the 40s and hoards goods to take her motherland to new height

The three-story apartment building where Shu Ran now lives is not far from the school.

The building next door is the one Gou Zixun bought for his own residence; it's very close.

"Why are you here? Shouldn't you go and greet the guests first?"

Shu Ran swallowed the savory pastry in her mouth and then picked up a sweet pastry to continue eating.

Eating either one on its own would be too much, but combining them is just right!

The fruit tea with the straw beside me was only a sip or two too little. My skirt was a bit too big, making it inconvenient to go to the toilet, so I decided to drink less.

"No rush, the main character is my brother, and my sister is there to help, so I just came to pick you up!"

He strode in and sat down next to Shu Ran without any ceremony, picking up a piece of pastry and throwing it into his mouth.

The tailor-made suit fit perfectly, and the blue bow tie was similar in color to the dress Shu Ran was wearing today.

It was no coincidence. Gou Zixun had secretly inquired about it and, fearing that a blue suit would be too conspicuous, opted for a blue bow tie and sapphire cufflinks as a second choice.

I ate too quickly and choked.

"Cough cough cough..."

"Wait a minute, let me get you some water..."

Gou Zixun spotted the untouched cup of fruit tea, put the straw aside, and gulped it down.

"Um……"

Shu Ran looked at the discarded straw, but kindly didn't say that it was what she drank from, since she didn't use a straw anyway.

I poured the water in my hand and placed it in front of him.

"Phew, that feels so good!"

"Boom boom boom!"

Another person has arrived; this time it's Qi Jing's uncle.

"Miss Shu, I'm sorry to bother you!"

Qi Ruichuan greeted them, then looked around but didn't see Qi Jing.

Shu Ran explained, "Jingjing is getting her hair and makeup done inside. She'll be out in a bit. Mr. Qi, please have a seat."

Nodding slightly, Qi Ruichuan chose a spot not too far from the two of them and sat down alone.

"Uncle Qi!"

"Ok!"

After exchanging greetings, Gou Zixun and Qi Ruichuan fell into a tacit silence.

"Ranran, look! Isn't it beautiful?"

Qi Jing came out quickly and immediately saw Shu Ran waiting on the sofa. She spun around to show her.

"It looks great! It fits perfectly!"

Shu Ran clapped and praised.

Qi Ruichuan, feeling ignored, wasn't happy, but he couldn't argue with the girl, so he just coughed twice.

"Hey, Uncle, you've arrived!"

"Okay, let's go! Now is the perfect time!"

Shu Ran and Gou Zixun were in one car, and Qi Jing and Qi Ruichuan were in another.

A car belonging to Shu Ran followed behind, with her bodyguards inside.

The car arrived at its destination quickly.

Gou Zixun got out of the car first, then quickly walked over and opened the car door for Shu Ran.

He reached out and put his hand on Gou Zixun's arm, and the two entered the manor together.

This is the Gou family's estate in Country Y, in a prime location in the city center.

"Sister! Brother! This is Shu Ran."

"Ranran, this is my sister, Gou Yueling, and this is my brother, Gou Xinglan."

"Hello, Sister Yueling, Brother Xinglan, happy birthday!"

"Welcome, Ranran, come in quickly! It's a bit chilly outside." Gou Yueling accepted the gift prepared by Shu Ran and invited her in.

I had heard about the Gou family's twins long ago; it was Gou Xinglan who had Shu Ran's middle school notes compiled.

She truly lives up to her reputation, deserving of being named the "Academic Beauty" of Jinren Academy for six consecutive years. Not only is she highly intelligent, but she is also genuinely beautiful!

With fair skin, delicate features, and an inherent air of frailty, he resembled a gentle and kind-hearted nobleman from ancient times, making one feel sorry for him.

She doesn't look much like Gou Yueling; she's the best-looking of the three Gou siblings.

He is three years older than Gou Zixun, but he is more like his younger brother.

Although it wasn't specially prepared for her, Shu Ran was still grateful. If it weren't for this notebook, she might not have been able to be so carefree during her six years of middle school.

I heard that because they were twins, a boy and a girl, and were premature, the siblings, especially the boy, were not in good health.

It just so happens that Shu Ran pulled out the Synthesis Machine today and synthesized a Nourishing Spirit Stone. How can this not be considered a kind of fate!

"Ahem, thank you Ranran, please go in!"

Gou Xinglan's face was almost transparently white, but her eyes seemed to sparkle with thousands of stars.

Gou Zixun was a little worried and turned to look at Shu Ran questioningly. Shu Ran understood and nodded in agreement.

"Brother, can you help me entertain Ranran? She doesn't like crowded places, so I'll take care of the guests here for you."

Without further ado, he handed Shu Ran over to Gou Xinglan and told the two of them to go inside quickly.

"Yes, yes, Xinglan, you should go in quickly! This is a good opportunity to let Zixun meet people."

Gou Xinglan knew their worries and nodded with a smile: "Then I'll leave this place to you. I'll take Ranran inside to relax."

"Miss Shu, please!"

Looking at the bent arm in front of her, Shu Ran generously linked her arm with his.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Brother Xinglan!"

Watching the two of them walk into the hall chatting and laughing, Gou Zixun scratched his head, feeling as if he had done something wrong.

But in the blink of an eye, more guests arrived, so she gave up thinking and turned to greet them with her sister.

"May I call you Ranran?"

Gou Xinglan took Shu Ran to a quiet place.

"Yes, that's what my friends call me, so of course I can call him Xinglan too."

Shu Ran lifted her skirt and sat down. Her bodyguard did not follow her in; instead, he drove to the manor entrance and parked his car, ready to be called upon in case of danger.

This is a unique summoning feature for bodyguards and asset holders within the Asset Realization APP, available only in dangerous situations.

"I often hear Zixun mention you, and I'm very curious, but it seems like we've never had the chance to meet."

Gou Xinglan suppressed the itch in her throat and said.

He envied his younger brother, who was healthy and could make many good friends.

"Haha, I should thank Brother Xinglan."

Thinking about her six years of freedom in middle school, Shu Ran inexplicably laughed out loud.

Although the "All-Round Academic Superstar System" helped Shu Ran advance her studies to university graduation.

However, at that time, Shu Ran only collected a small portion of the course content of Jinren Academy.

Moreover, when it comes to learning, if you don't move forward, you fall behind.

Six years is a long time; without continuous review, it's easy to forget.

"Cough...what?"

Gou Xinglan couldn't suppress the urge to cough.

"Brother Xinglan, wait for me a moment, I'll come back and explain."

Shu Ran stood up. The banquet was all about alcoholic beverages and soft drinks, but there was no hot water.

I simply stopped a passing waiter and asked him for a cup of hot water.

Fortunately, because of Gou Xinglan's health, the Gou family always kept hot water in the tea room. It was just that it wasn't displayed because of the banquet.

Shu Ran quickly returned with two cups of hot water.

He handed a cup to Gou Xinglan: "Brother Xinglan, have some water! It's hot."

"Thank you!"

Gou Xinglan took it, drank some hot water, and felt much better. He looked at Shu Ran with longing eyes, as if yearning for something.

Shu Ran smiled, her eyes crinkling. Although she was young, she always felt like she was facing a younger brother, which was quite adorable!
