Gu Shengxiao stared at Wen Yue in surprise.

He knows that Wen Yue loves him but he never thought that someone as timid as her would have to courage to confess her feelings to him.

“Wen Yue.” Gu Shengxiao furrowed his brows. “To you, I have no other feelings aside from gratitude.”

If there was no love, there was no love!

He was not the type of person who would give someone false hope. Since he does not like Wen Yue that way, he would admit it openly so she could find her own ending.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Perhaps Wen Yue has already anticipated his answer as her eyes only showed disappointment and no other emotion.

“I know, Big Brother Gu. Actually, I had known from the start that you would never like me! Previously, I had thought that you won’t accept me because my surname is Wen. Now, I understand that I had never been in your heart.”

Wen Yue took a deep breath and continued, “However, I have no regrets. At least I’ve told you my true feelings.”

She was not an inflexible person. If the opposition does not like her, she does not want to entangle herself too much.

“Big Brother Gu, may I become your little sister?”

Wen Yue lifted her head and looked at Gu Shengxiao as she said, “Though I can’t be your wife, I still want to be your relative. I know that I cannot be compared to your blood relatives but as long as I can call you my brother, I am happy.”

Gu Shengxiao thought for a moment before nodding. “You’ve been calling me Big Brother Gu all this time so I will also recognize you as my younger sister.”

“Really?” Wen Yue’s heart leaped as a smile appeared in her eyes as well. “Big Brother Gu, from now on, you are my brother.”

“Alright.” Gu Shengxiao’s face was not as grim as it had been previously. “Since I’m now your brother, if you are ever bullied in the future, you can ask me for help. Furthermore, when you marry in the future, I will prepare a gift for you.”

“Thank you, Big Brother Gu.”

Wen Yue was smiling so happily but no one knows that at this moment, her heart was dripping with blood.

However, this was the only way for her to stay by Gu Shengxiao’s side! It was still better than being unable to see him!

She was content with the way things were...

“If there’s nothing else, you’d better go back and rest. I want to continue my cultivation.”

“Alright, Big Brother Gu.”

Wen Yue’s smile looked very happy as she looked at Gu Shengxiao and said, “Big Brother Gu, I’m really happy to have met you in this lifetime.”

After speaking, she did not give Gu Shengxiao the chance to reply as she turned around and left the room, shutting the door behind her.

Gu Shengxiao stared at the tightly shut door and shook his head as a sense of helplessness appeared on his cold features.

He has no feelings towards Wen Yue so he did not want to lie to her. It was a good thing that Wen Yue was adaptable. He could relax now...

“Shengxiao.”

A gentle voice sounded from outside the door.

Gu Shengxiao was startled for a moment. He then lifted his head to look at the woman in white who was standing in front of the door and asked, “Mother, what are you doing here?”

“I was only dropping by but I had accidentally overheard Wen Yue’s confession to you.” Dongfang Yu walked in and slowly approached Gu Shengxiao. She then sat down next to him and said, “Your sister’s wedding has been settled and now, it’s your turn. I think that Wen Yue isn’t too bad at all and we aren’t people who prioritize family status either. As long as she’s someone that you like, no matter who they are, I will treat her as if she was my own child.”

Gu Shengxiao shook his head. “I only feel gratitude towards Wen Yue. If I marry her so irresponsibly, I will destroy her life. This way, it’s not too bad. At least I won’t be letting her down.”
