A wonderful fate

Before, when Gu Xiaoyue read CEO romance novels, she found the CEOs constantly demanding someone be buried with them to be quite cringey. Now, those same cringey lines coming from her own mouth felt rather dashing!

If Gu Qi and Shen Jiajing still refused to let their family of three go, she would either successfully finish them off, or she would take the lives of every member of the Gu Family!

Even if she didn't have the ability right now, a gentleman takes revenge even ten years later!

If Gu Yongze still wanted to use her, then he could deal with Gu Qi himself!

"What are you talking about? Just because your parents were harmed by someone else, does that mean you have to cause trouble for my parents?"

Gu Xiaoxing roared hysterically; she refused to suffer this grievance.

Gu Xiaoyue raised her hand and slapped Gu Xiaoxing. "My parents are your uncle and aunt. You address them as 'your parents'—do you have no manners at all!"

Gu Xiaoxing clutched her burning cheek, glaring at Gu Xiaoyue with hatred in her eyes. "You dare hit me!"

In the past, it was always Gu Xiaoxing bullying Gu Xiaoyue, but now the roles were reversed.

Gu Xiaoyue looked at Gu Xiaoxing as if she were an idiot. "So what if I hit you? If you're not satisfied, call the police!"

Gu Xiaoxing fell silent. She knew that she—including Gu Yongze—was now being manipulated by Gu Xiaoyue.

Gu Yongze let out a deep sigh. If Gu Xiaoyue could silently place a camera in Gu Qi's bedroom, there was no guarantee she wouldn't silently kill them. It seemed he needed to discipline his useless second son.

Gu Yongze waved his hand, signaling for them to leave.

Gu Xiaoyue understood, not wanting to entangle herself with them further, and turned to leave.

This left Gu Xiaoxing clutching her face, seemingly about to cry to Gu Yongze.

That was none of her business.

Gu Xiaoyue walked out of the Gu Family mansion and let out a slow sigh of relief.

Original owner, I can consider this a vent for your grievances.

After a busy day of moving, Gu Yu told Gu Xiaoyue to rest in their new home while he went to stay with Mu Qingning for the night.

Gu Xiaoyue did not decline. She lay on her new bed, just about to rest, when Chu Li called to tell her he was going to report to Huaqing tomorrow.

Gu Xiaoyue said that Mu Qingning was being discharged from the hospital tomorrow, so she wouldn't be able to see him off.

Chu Li expressed his understanding, though he felt embarrassed that he couldn't be of more help.

"You have already helped me a lot. The bodyguards from before are no longer needed."

Gu Xiaoyue told Chu Li that she now had evidence to use against the Gu Family, so theoretically, they shouldn't make another move for a while.

Besides, even if Gu Qi and the others couldn't help themselves and tried again, Gu Yu and Mu Qingning were now living in the military compound, so it wouldn't be easy for them to succeed.

Chu Li disagreed, stating firmly that he would still find ways to continue protecting their family.

Gu Xiaoyue sighed softly, wondering when she would ever be able to repay Chu Li's favor.

The two chatted for a while longer before wishing each other goodnight.

Early the next morning, Gu Xiaoyue went to handle Mu Qingning's discharge from the hospital and moved into the house in the military compound.

This period was the most comfortable time Gu Xiaoyue had experienced since transmigrating.

Without the need to prepare for exams or undergo training, she spent a few days happily accompanying Gu Yu and Mu Qingning to explore the surrounding area.

It wasn't until the days leading up to the new student registration that she packed her things and set off.

There are no airplanes on Mercury because the wilderness is full of ferocious beasts, making ordinary transportation impossible.

Therefore, the most common method of transportation between cities currently is using the Wind Attribute Albatross.

Because they are docile, do not attack humans, and have the speed of the Wind Attribute, they have been domesticated and bred in large numbers by humans to serve as a means of transportation.

Gu Xiaoyue went to the transport station alone. Gu Yu and Mu Qingning had insisted on seeing her off, but she refused.

She was a bit afraid of goodbyes; she preferred reunions filled with anticipation.

Today was the day new students enrolled at Nanya Academy, and there were a lot of people.

A senior from the student council helped her check in and even took her to the door of her dormitory.

Unexpectedly, one of her four roommates turned out to be—Ye Wanrou.

"Oh my god, Xiao Yue! How did you come to Nanya?" Ye Wanrou opened her big eyes, looking at her in surprise.

Gu Xiaoyue chuckled, "That seems to be what I should be asking, right?"

Ye Wanrou said with a bit of embarrassment, "I didn't get into Chongbei! But Nanya expanded its enrollment, so I was transferred here.

I actually think it's fine; I heard that compared to other academies, this place is quite relaxed. I wanted to wait until I was settled before telling you.

But Xiao Yue, something isn't right. You were the top scorer in our Qingyu City, and you said you were going to Huaqing before. It's impossible that you didn't get in!"

Gu Xiaoyue sighed, "I just felt that Chu Li should go to Huaqing; it's better for his development. Actually, my first choice has always been Nanya."

Gu Xiaoyue knew that Ye Wanrou's first choice was Chongbei. At the time, she hadn't expected that a young lady like Ye Wanrou would want to go to a military academy.

However, respecting others' wishes is a good virtue.

Ye Wanrou didn't use their relationship to manipulate her, nor did she insist that they attend the same academy.

On this point, Gu Xiaoyue felt that Ye Wanrou was both gentle and mature.

Isn't it better to go to the academies we want to attend and find the development paths suitable for ourselves, rather than just using so-called love or sisterhood to manipulate ourselves or others?

A few years later, we can meet at the peak, rather than forcing ourselves to wear shoes that don't fit and wasting our time.

"But it's great now; I was transferred to Nanya, and we are still roommates! Oh my god, fate is just so wonderful! Oh, right, Chen Yixuan was also transferred to Nanya. I just ran into him at the entrance while signing in!"

Fate really is wonderful. However, the instructors also assigned dormitories based on region, so the other two roommates should also be from Qingyu City, or cities relatively close to Qingyu City.

Today was not only the day for new student enrollment at Nanya, but also for Huaqing.

Chu Li had been waiting at the entrance of Huaqing, waiting for his beloved Gu Xiaoyue to arrive.

Ye Junhe was keeping him company, but after waiting for a long time, he grew impatient. "Chu Li, did you confirm with Gu Xiaoyue yesterday? What time is it already, and she's still not here!"

"I sent her a message yesterday saying I'd wait for her, but she didn't reply."

Chu Li felt that, given Gu Xiaoyue's personality, it was completely normal for her not to reply to his message.

"Then why don't you call her and ask where she is? Whoa, this sun, it's so hot today!"

Ye Junhe unbuttoned two buttons on his shirt and pulled at his collar to fan himself.

Chu Li was also feeling a bit irritable from the wait. "If she's on an Albatross, it wouldn't be convenient for her to answer if I called. If you want to wait with me, then wait; if you don't want to wait, then go stand somewhere else!"

Ye Junhe made a face at Chu Li, muttered a complaint under his breath, and ran to a shady spot not far away to wait.

Chu Li checked his brain, but there were no messages from Gu Xiaoyue, only several missed calls from his bodyguard in Qingyu City.

He waited until the afternoon, and there were barely anyone left at the entrance of Huaqing.

Chu Li was puzzled as to why he still hadn't seen Gu Xiaoyue, and only then did he receive a message from his bodyguard.

"Young Master, Miss Gu went to report to Nanya Academy in Hechuan City today."

Chu Li was momentarily stunned. Didn't she agree with him that she would come to Huaqing?

Why did she go to Nanya?

She lied to me!

At this moment, the bodyguard called again.

Chu Li was shaking with anger and lashed out immediately, "Gu Xiaoyue went to Nanya, why are you only reporting this to me now? What are you good for?"

The bodyguard felt aggrieved. He had called several times, but the Young Master hadn't answered.

Moreover, his main job was to ensure Gu Xiaoyue's safety; he wasn't told to monitor her whereabouts. That was why he had sent the Young Master a text message—was that wrong too?

Chu Li didn't want to waste any more breath on him and turned to walk toward the school in a rage.

Ye Junhe noticed something was wrong and shouted at him, "Chu Li, what's going on? Where are you going?"

Chu Li gritted his teeth and said angrily, "To transfer schools!"
