The Full-Leveled Healer Transmigrates to a Real and Fake Rich Daughter Story - Chapter 120

120 Unworthy

Gu Yuan still remembered that seven years ago, Madam Gu had sent him to the academy, hoping that he would take the imperial examination and obtain a good reputation. Many people had also told him that his grandmother did it for his own good.

However, Gu Yuan would never forget that his father had once told him to learn how to ride and shoot well. In the future, they would be father and son.

When his father was 13 years old, he abandoned his status as the heir of the Dingyuan Marquis Household and entered the army incognito. Step by step, he rose from a small soldier to the youngest commander of the guards.

He had also joined the army early to follow his father’s footsteps and show his family that he could make a name for himself.

Gu Yanfei looked at his clear side profile, her eyes dark and deep.

In fact, she knew more about her second uncle’s thoughts than Gu Yuan at this moment.

In her previous life, Gu Jian had always looked down on the eldest branch, except for Gu Yunrong, who was under the eldest branch’s name at that time.

Gu Jian had been wary of Gu Yuan.

In her previous life, Gu Yuan had not been transferred to the Divine Arms Battalion. He would make a great contribution at the end of the following year and could have smoothly advanced, but Gu Jian had set him up and broken one of his legs… completely blocking Gu Yuan’s future!

In this life, because she had saved Imperial Duke Wei, Gu Yuan’s future had changed.

However, even if Gu Yuan was transferred to the Divine Arms Battalion, he was only a fifth-grade battalion commander. He should not be able to stop Gu Jian. Why was Gu Jian so anxious?

Just thinking about it made Gu Yanfei’s heart ache for her eldest brother. She raised her hand and brushed away a fallen leaf on his shoulder, then gently stroked it.

Gu Yuan turned to look at her. The moment his gaze met hers, it was as gentle as spring water.

“Sister, don’t worry. I’ll protect you!” Gu Yuan raised his hand and gently rubbed the top of Gu Yanfei’s head, his heart softening.

As the eldest brother, he should shelter his sister and protect her!

“Yes.” Gu Yanfei smiled brightly at him. “I’ll protect Big Brother too.”

The surrounding trees and red plums trembled in the slightly tipsy evening wind, but they were eclipsed by the bright young girl.

Gu Yuan was pleased by his sister’s words. His smile deepened and he rubbed her hair dotingly.

As the siblings spoke, they walked forward and left Mingyi Courtyard.

Gu Yuan smiled and said, “Sister, I’ve already been transferred to the capital. When we find an opportunity, let’s split up, okay?”

Separating from the family was not as simple as it sounded. In fact, ever since Gu Yuan found out about the real and fake daughter, he had been completely disappointed in Madam Gu and had the thought of separating from the family.

However, he also knew that Madam Gu and Gu Jian would not agree easily, and the family would not agree either.

Since they were going to split up, they had to have a “reason” to be divided beautifully.

Besides, he had to think of his sister.

Now that he had been transferred back to the capital, he did not have to stay in the military all year round and had the strength to take care of his sister.

“Okay.” Gu Yanfei smiled and nodded.

Separation was necessary, but not now.

Most of her mental demons in her previous life came from the Gu family and Gu Yunrong. Of course, she could not just leave.

Her master had said that the greatest enemy of cultivators was not the world or anyone else, but himself. On the path of cultivation, cultivators had been fighting with themselves their entire lives. If their mental fortitude was weak, their Tao hearts would retreat and they would be dominated by mental demons.

Escaping, suppressing, forgetting, or taking radical killing would not help the mental demons.

What she had to do was sail against the current in a storm, ride the waves, and stabilize her heart at the helm.

As they spoke, the siblings arrived at the outer gate.

Juan Bi and Gu Yuan’s servant, Wu Tong, had already prepared the horses. Gu Yuan’s black horse and Hongyu seemed to know that they could go out and were both extremely eager.

The siblings went out happily and went to the Wind Cloud Restaurant for dinner. They walked around happily before returning to the residence.

However, just as she arrived outside the Marquis Mansion, she saw the servant, Wu Tong, shrinking in the cold wind and waiting anxiously outside the corner door.

“Young Master!” Seeing that the siblings had finally returned, Wu Tong hurriedly ran over and said anxiously to Gu Yuan, “The Marquis has written a memorial to impeach Young Master…”

Gu Yuan did not say a word. He only held the reins tightly, his dark phoenix eyes darkening bit by bit. The black horse under him breathed white air from its mouth and nose as it neighed and paced.

The sun was setting with a last glimmer, and the sky was as dark as the deep sea.
