Some things she didn’t have with her now and needed to check with Gu Jinxi to be sure.
“No need to wait until tomorrow. I’ll go back with Second Sister-in-law shortly,” Gu Jinxi said happily, finding yet another reason to go stay with her.
Aluo, curious and frightened, hid behind Gu Zhixing and peeked out with two big round eyes from his shoulder.O
Lu Miao’s lips curled slightly. “That’s good. This cursed thing you have is quite dangerous. Ordinary people who look at it can get cursed.”
Aluo was startled by this revelation and quickly covered his eyes with his hands.
Seeing Lu Miao’s mischief, Gu Jinxi cooperatively asked, “Second Sister-in-law, what happens if an ordinary person gets cursed?”
She glanced intentionally at Aluo and smirked. “Not only will they die, but anyone who has physical contact with them will also turn into a pool of blood and bones.”
Aluo knew that Lu Miao was formidable, having witnessed her hunting monsters, so he believed her words wholeheartedly.
Hearing her explanation, he immediately panicked, pushing away Gu Zhixing beside him and asked anxiously, “How can I cure it?”
“It’s incurable. If you don’t want to drag others down, you can only find a place with no one around and wait for your death,” Lu Miao replied.
Aluo imagined himself lying in a dark, windowless room, chunks of flesh falling off his body, turning into a pool of blood. He looked at Gu Zhixing with teary eyes and said in distress, “I’m sorry, I have to go now. I won’t be able to go with you to see the sea, ride horses, or enjoy good food in the future.”
He gritted his teeth and continued, “Find someone better to be with you and have a good life.”
After saying this, he tried to walk away, but Gu Zhixing reached out and pulled him back. Aluo immediately jumped up and screamed, “Don’t touch me! You’ll get infected with the curse and turn into blood!”
Gu Zhixing looked helplessly at Lu Miao and said, “Don’t tease him.”
Gu Jinxi couldn’t help but burst into laughter, holding her stomach.
Aluo finally reacted and approached Lu Miao angrily, glaring at her. “You lied to me again!”
Lu Miao shrugged. “I was talking to Jinxi. It’s your fault for eavesdropping.”
Aluo choked up, realizing that he had indeed eavesdropped. He could only say indignantly, “I won’t talk to you anymore.”
He then sat down on the side, sulking.
It was a rare occurrence for the Gu family to have someone so innocent and cute. Lu Miao smiled and reached for the dark gold bracelet on her wrist, handing it to him.
“It’s a New Year’s gift. Consider it my apology, and let’s forget about our past grievances.”
Aluo, still sulking, huffed, “I don’t want it. Who knows if you’ll trick me again.”
Beside them, Gu Jinxi’s eyes lit up. “If you don’t want it, I’ll take it. I’m willing to be tricked by Second Sister-in-law.”
Anything from Second Sister-in-law was bound to be a masterpiece; anyone who didn’t want it would be a fool.
She reached out to take it, but Gu Zhixing was quicker. He took the bracelet and slid it onto Aluo’s wrist, saying, “Thank you, little sibling.”
Judging by the expressions of Gu Shiyan and Gu Jinxi nearby, it was clear that this was no ordinary bracelet. With Lu Miao’s abilities, she could probably offer it as a life-saving talisman when the time came. This wasn’t something that could be measured by money alone.
Aluo had wanted to be friends with Lu Miao all along, but his previous experiences made him wary. Now, seeing Gu Zhixing put the bracelet on his wrist, he pursed his lips. “Fine, I’ll reluctantly forgive you.”
Then, he immediately approached Lu Miao with excitement, discussing the bracelet with her in a low voice.
As a mixed-blood who had spent a long time abroad, Aluo spoke Mandarin mixed with various foreign languages. Gu Jinxi’s head almost went into meltdown trying to understand him, but Lu Miao had no trouble communicating with him.
Gu Zhixing chuckled and shook his head, raising an eyebrow at Gu Shiyan. “You have a good eye.”
Gu Shiyan nodded without hesitation. “Better than yours.”
Gu Zhixing almost burst into laughter at the cheeky response. “You don’t even have the title of ‘Lu Miao’s spouse,’ but you’re quite confident.”
His younger brother had always been mature beyond his years, like an old man trapped in a child’s body, difficult to handle. He thought that Gu Shiyan would spend his entire life in solitude, never imagining that he would fall into Lu Miao’s hands and willingly follow her without a name or identity.
“Sounds like you have something similar,” Gu Shiyan retorted heartlessly.
Gu Zhixing proudly displayed the ring on his hand. Indeed, he did.
Gu Shiyan, for once, was left speechless. Not only did he not have a ring, but it had been three years, and he didn’t even have a bracelet!
Lu Miao had given everyone close to her a gift, but not him.
Seeing Gu Shiyan defeated, Gu Zhixing felt triumphant. He generously took out his phone and sent a huge red envelope in the family group chat.
Gu Ziheng also snatched a red envelope during his break in rehearsals. Gu Jinxi had the worst luck, only managing to grab a few tens of yuan. He protested loudly, insisting that Lu Miao draw a good luck talisman for him before he tried again.
Aluo’s eyes lit up when he heard that talismans could be used like this, and he asked for a good luck talisman as well.
The house suddenly became lively.
Before midnight, after Gu Ziheng had finished his Spring Festival performance, he finally managed to return home on the private plane arranged by Gu Shiyan. He, Gu Jinxi, and Aluo dragged Lu Miao outside to set off fireworks. Lu Miao pinched a small spell, and a golden bird flew out of her palm. It circled around them before bursting into a sky full of stars, like a meteor shower streaking across the night sky.
Gu Jinxi and the others exclaimed in excitement, almost jumping for joy.
Shen Qinghe watched the children happily and couldn’t close her mouth.
The old lady thought about the past few years when Gu Zhixing had disappeared without a trace, Gu Shiyan was busy with work, Gu Ziheng had transformed into a behind-the-scenes producer due to a throat injury, and Gu Jinxi had been rebellious, either abroad or racing cars. The family celebrations had been cold and lonely. Now, seeing the lively scene before her, she couldn’t help but feel deeply moved.
She realized she had been too stubborn in the past. As long as her children were safe and sound in front of her, that was enough!
Lu Miao had originally planned to return to Lingyue Manor, but with Gu Jinxi and Alo keeping him up until the early hours of the morning, and knowing that they had to visit for the New Year in the morning, he decided to stay at the estate.
Gu Jinxi returned to his room, humming a tune, his excitement still lingering. As he showered, the water flowed over the pink petals on his wrist, causing a sensation of intense pain, as if he had been scalded.
He raised his hand to examine it, and the petals had transformed from their original pale pink to a vivid shade, becoming even more realistic. 𝒇𝓻𝙚𝙚𝙬𝙚𝙗𝒏𝒐𝒗𝙚𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝒎
Perhaps it was his imagination, but it felt like the petals were trying to take root in his skin and grow from within.
He had initially wanted to find Lu Miao, but considering the late hour, he decided to wait until morning.
After his shower, he closed the bathroom door behind him. Almost translucent pink petals floated gently to the bathroom floor, then disappeared without a trace.
The next morning, Lu Miao got up and went downstairs, but she couldn’t find
Gu Jinxi anywhere..
