Tongyuan Villa had been renovated for some time now and was ready for occupancy. Gu Shaoting had also hired a housekeeper, Mrs. Li, to take care of the place and start organizing the rooms.

Originally, Gu Shaoting planned to move in with Shu Pan and Joy in a while because the environment here was beautiful and spacious. But unexpectedly, the first one to move in was the troublemaker, Gu

Huanhuan.

Upon arriving at Tongyuan, Mrs. Li immediately greeted them. “Sir, what can I do for you?”

“Mrs. Li, please prepare a clean set of clothes and tidy up the guest room,” Gu Shaoting said before striding into the house with the sleeping Gu Huanhuan in his arms.

Once inside, Gu Shaoting placed her in the bathtub and turned on the warm water, spraying it over Gu Huanhuan.

“Wow!”

“Help!” The girl, who had been sleeping soundly, used her hands to brush the water off her face while calling for help, taking a while to fully wake up.

She raised her head, glaring at Gu Shaoting. “Bro, are you trying to drown me for my inheritance?”

Gu Shaoting crossed his arms, his face dark. “Look at yourself now, you look like a ghost. All you do is cause trouble.”

Gu Huanhuan hung her head silently. She knew that if her cousin found out, it wouldn’t end well. And look, she was right.

She wondered if she had any reliable friends who could be introduced to her brother so he’d have someone else to manage, giving him less time to bother her.

Seeing her silent, Gu Shaoting’s tone raised slightly. “Gu Huanhuan, are you even listening to me?”

Gu Huanhuan looked at him, her lips trembling as if she was about to cry. “Bro,

I’m already in my twenties, I’m an adult. Why are you still controlling me?”

“Now you claim to be an adult, but your actions are worse than a child’s,” Gu Shaoting mocked.

“Bro, I’m feeling cold. I want to get out,” Gu Huanhuan said, hugging herself.

“Stand still and reflect on your actions,” Gu Shaoting stared at her. “You’re wearing that and complaining about being cold?”

“Bro…” Gu Huanhuan felt discontented, but she dared not stir. She couldn’t afford to defy Gu Shaoting; he was someone who responded better to gentleness than resistance.

“Do you even recognize me as your brother? Why do you make decisions without consulting the family?” Gu Shaoting looked at this girl, who seemed oblivious to her own limitations, and felt exasperated.

“Bro, I want to get up and sleep. I’m tired.” Gu Huanhuan, feeling like a defendant in court, had long lost her patience and started to throw a tantrum. Gu Shaoting remained firm. “Do you realize your mistake?”

Gu Huanhuan remained silent. She couldn’t admit her mistake; otherwise, everything she had worked for would vanish into thin air.

Gu Shaoting raised an eyebrow, feeling helpless with this girl.

The girl finally lifted her head, puffing up her cheeks. “I’m an adult, and I have the right to decide my own life. You don’t even have a girlfriend yourself. Focus on your own affairs; you don’t need to meddle in mine.”

Gu Shaoting scolded sternly, “Just because you call me ‘bro’ doesn’t mean I shouldn’t discipline you. ”

“Is it because I called you ‘bro’ that you can be so harsh to me?” Gu Huanhuan burst into tears, disregarding her image.

“Crying won’t help. Since we haven’t resolved this today, no one will be sleeping,” Gu Shaoting said, massaging his temples where a dull ache was forming.

“Dictatorial… oppressive…” Gu Huanhuan grumbled indignantly..
