Chapter 46: Stop Interacting With Her

EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Gu Zi was still busy peeling the herbal tea eggs as she spoke to Gong Xin with a serious tone, “I think Su Le’s father is a good person, and I no longer have those feelings for your brother.”

This was the most straightforward answer she could give. She couldn’t say that the person who loved Gong Zhan was the original host of her body.

The current Gu Zi hailed from the 21st century, an era where handsome men like Gong Zhan were not that rare.

Gong Zhan was very good-looking and came from a reputable family, which were his assets.

Such men tended to be popular with women and attracted many admirers.

Therefore, Gong Zhan did not hold any special significance for her. Gu Zi sincerely wished Gong Zhan and Lin Miao a long and blissful marriage.

Gong Xin found it hard to believe that Gu Zi’s expression and tone were so calm when discussing Gong Zhan.

It seemed that Gu Zi had moved on, which took some time for Gong Xin to accept.

“Wait for me,” Gong Xin said. She and Uncle Yang proceeded to the Golden Sun Restaurant to look for Gong Zhan.

Gong Zhan happened to be coming out of the bathroom and met Gong Xin and Uncle Yang. After instructing Uncle Yang to take the wine to their private room, he asked Gong Xin about the reason for her visit.

“Bro, I’ve become a broadcaster!” Gong Xin announced with a beaming smile.

“Wow, my sister is outstanding.” Gong Zhan thought that she had nothing else to say. He praised her and was about to enter the private room when he was stopped by Gong Xin.

“Brother, actually, I bought this job. Gu Zi went to the countryside, so she sold her job to me. However, I’m short on funds, so I need a loan.”

Gong Zhan frowned, thinking, ‘As expected, she isn’t obediently living in the countryside.’

Gu Zi was using her job to win Gong Xin’s favor at the moment. Did she believe this would make him fall for her?

She had already experienced death once, yet her character development remained lacking.

“How much do you need?” he asked.

Gong Xin gestured with her hand. “1,300 yuan.”

Gong Zhan retrieved some money from his wallet and handed it to Gong Xin, instructing, “Give her the money, but stop interacting with her. Tell her not to waste her time pursuing me; I’m not interested in her.”

Gong Xin blushed.

She had just told Gu Zi that her brother could assist in repaying the betrothal gift.

Now, Gong Xin felt glad that Gu Zi had given up on her brother.

“Did you hear that?” Gong Zhan questioned when he noticed her dazed expression.

Gong Xin had no choice but to respond, “I heard it, I heard it. I heard it loud and clear.”

“Good,” Gong Zhan patted her head. “You’re too naive and susceptible to manipulation by people with ulterior motives. Remember, you can’t become Gu Zi’s pawn to get close to me. Now, go and hand her the money.” Gong Xin was confused about his words.

She looked at her brother and noticed the stern expression on his face.

Gong Zhan surveyed his sister’s puzzled countenance, realizing that she didn’t comprehend.

“She’s trying to use the job to gain my favor,” he said straightforwardly. ‘You’re still young and don’t understand such matters. Trust me.”

He was sure Gu Zi wanted to keep his heart so that she would not have to marry into the countryside.

Gong Xin couldn’t tell what she was thinking, but she couldn’t hide it from him.

Gong Zhan harbored a particular aversion to women like Gu Zi, who had pestered him since childhood and possessed no real personality.

No matter how beautiful a woman like her was, she was not worthy of him.

She was only worthy of marrying an old man who raised pigs in the countryside.

With those thoughts in mind, Gong Zhan headed back to his private room.

Gong Xin looked at his back and didn’t know what to say.

She decided to ignore her arrogant brother for the time being and pass the money to Gu Zi.

Gong Xin turned and hurried downstairs. Soon, she was back at the food stall.

Gu Zi had already finished eating and was feeding Su Le.

The street was teeming with people. After Su Le finished her meal, Gong Xin hailed a taxi and urged Gu Zi to get into the taxi with her before handing the money to Gu Zi.

“I’ll head back now,” Gong Xin bade farewell to Gu Zi.

Gu Zi carried Su Le out of the taxi and waved goodbye to Gong Xin.

Then, she took Su Le to a watch shop. She wanted to purchase a watch.

Watches were considered a must-have accessory for fashion enthusiasts during the 1980s, and they were particularly rare in rural areas.

However, Gu Zi wasn’t buying a watch to flaunt; it was for practicality. Having a watch that accurately told the time would be convenient for organizing her studies and daily activities.

A wristwatch would bring significant convenience, and the expense was justified.

Upon entering the store, little Lele reached out to grab a hanging watch advertisement, seemingly keen to put it in her mouth.

Gu Zits lips curved upward, and she observed the child’s insatiable curiosity about everything around her.

The store owner approached and, after sizing them up, he smiled and inquired, “Miss, which watch would you like to try on?”
