Chapter 1874: Chapter 20: Siblings Reunited
He turned around, his perfectly chiseled jaw stunningly handsome, taking one’s breath away. Then he met her gaze; Meng Fan slightly raised his brows, recognizing his little aid recipient.
His gaze lowered, landing on the modified pants and the slender, white calves.
His sword-like eyebrows furrowed in displeasure.
The speaker was the president of the National Security University, "Meng Fan, you can’t always stay in the rescue team, you haven’t graduated yet."
"Yes! President, I understand."
"Are you returning to National Security University?"
"No, I’m not."
The president was a bit taken aback, why tell me you understand if you’re not returning?
At the edge of the venue, people watched the show sitting directly on the ground. Gu Yunbo pretended nonchalantly to move his gaze away from Meng Fan, naturally sitting on the ground as well.
His straight, long legs on the ground looked even more graceful.
Ping Qing coughed uncomfortably, amazed that his sister never mentioned how stunning Gu Yunbo was, arguably more attractive than the performers on stage.
She sat on the ground with her head tilted, her cold yet stunning face looking weary. In essence, her heart was already fluttering towards Meng Fan, who was behind her. Rebirth had brought her back for nearly three months, yet it seemed she had accomplished nothing.
In the past life, she was already familiar with Meng Fan by this time. Now, living feels increasingly useless; they have scarcely exchanged words.
There she sat on the ground, a seventeen-year-old girl radiating brilliance. Her composed demeanor seemed to isolate her from the world, and her silhouette evoked a sense of poignant apprehension.
The people around secretly glanced at her, yet none approached her, instead surrounding Ping Qing, asking questions.
"Who is this?"
"Ping Qing, when did you have such a beautiful first sister?"
"Blindingly bright."
Even Ping Qing didn’t know! Since a foster daughter joined the family, he hadn’t visited home. He only heard negative comments from his sister about the girl.
"Why are you here?" Ping Qing sought a topic and sat beside Gu Yunbo, his peach blossom eyes holding curiosity and a hint of caution. Being astute, although his knowledge about Zhu Meihua’s past was limited, he could guess some nuances from between the lines.
"Chun Lan is coming." She was not interested in watching performances; she’d rather spend time doing extreme sports.
"Are you getting used to being home?"
"Not really, someone constantly picks fights for no reason."
"..." He believed his sister was no match for her. "From now on, I’m your brother; if you need help, just tell me directly."
Gu Yunbo looked at him in surprise, her eyes betraying an undisguisable shock. Did she mishear? Ping Qing was speaking so kindly? In the past life, since her first arrival at the Ping Family, he had been guarded.
Ping Qing was the most hostile towards her.
"What is it?"
"Nothing!" She racked her brains thinking, then suddenly realized.
In her last life, she was enveloped in gloom; though well-concealed, her occasional gaze betrayed a shine of resentment. That’s why Ping Qing guarded against her and opposed her. This life’s revenge was no longer important, so his attitude had changed?
Gu Yunbo recalled Sheng Ning’s past words, admiring her broad-mindedness and unique foresight.
Ping Qing scratched his head, his radiant peach blossom eyes, "Rest assured to settle at home and prepare well for next year’s exams. I’ll speak to Simin." For some reason, intuition told him she wasn’t happy at all.
At this moment, Meng Fan finally managed to deal with the National Security University’s president. Ping Qing spotted him and greeted, "Leader, let me introduce you." With that, he stood up, pulling Gu Yunbo up along with him.
