Ji Mingyue found his words very sweet, not about it being grand, but about them only getting married once!

“Let’s go and eat!”

Gu Jinhang drove off.

Meanwhile, Zhong Bingyuan’s treatment had reached its final stage. She had been taking the medicine that Gu Qingyao had prescribed for her. Today was her last acupuncture session.

In the Mo house, Zhong Bingyuan was sitting on a chair while Gu Qingyao prepared her tools.

Zhong Bingyuan sat there watching Gu Qingyao arrange her silver needles. She showed no joy at having regained her memory.

“Elder Sister Gu…”

“Hmm?”

Gu Qingyao turned and looked at the little girl. “What’s the matter?”

Zhong Bingyuan’s head was drooping, and she was clearly unhappy.

Gu Qingyao frowned. “What’s the matter? Who has upset you?”

Zhong Bingyuan looked up rather pitifully. “I can already remember many things…”

“Well? Are those memories… unpleasant?”

Zhong Bingyuan did not know how to put it into words. She lowered her head again.

“In the past, I wondered if my family abandoned me because I’m a girl. But my older brother and sister kept telling me that when they found me, I was very well dressed and was delicate and dainty, so I must have been very loved. In the past, I really looked forward to finding my parents.”

Gu Qingyao frowned. She did not really understand why Zhong Bingyuan was acting like this.

It was true that the Zhong family doted on her. Old Master Zhong and Zhong Guangping were good men. In the past, Zhong Bingyuan must have been treated like a little princess within the Zhong family.

She was most likely to be unhappy because of Zheng Lin!

“What about now? Yuan Yuan, have you remembered something that makes you sad?

“Silly girl, you’re already thirteen years old, and you’ll be fourteen next year. You’ll be going to school next. You’ll be very busy. When you grow up, you will have your own aspirations and dreams. Then when you think back, you might realize that the things that made you unhappy when you were young are not very significant.

“The Zhong family is very good to you. Yuan Yuan, in these times, it is very rare for a girl to be doted on like you are!”

Zhong Bingyuan raised her head and glanced at her before looking down again. “I understand. I don’t feel that I have suffered much, just…”

Zhong Bingyuan kept quiet for a while, then asked Gu Qingyao in a small voice, “Older Sister Gu, when I remember everything, do I have to go back to living in the Zhong house? Do I… have to live the same life I lived in the past?”

Gu Qingyao frowned. “Yuan Yuan, what on earth has happened? Has someone in your family made you unhappy?”

Zhong Bingyuan’s eyes reddened. “I… my mother pressures me too much. I don’t want to go back to that kind of life.”

So it was Zheng Lin!

“What about your mother? What did she do?”

Zhong Bingyuan said, “Recently, Grandfather and Father locked her up in the backyard. She was screaming frantically every day for them to let her go. I could not bear it, so I begged my grandfather and father to release her. They also felt that they could not continue to lock her up like that, so they released her, but they have forbidden her from leaving the house.

“The past few times I visited the Zhong house, I saw her several times. Each time… she begged me to come back to stay. She keeps telling me I’m a rich young lady, so I mustn’t mix with all those commoners, and it’s bad for my reputation.

“She arranged for me to do a lot of homework. I have to do calligraphy, practice embroidery, read and write. In short… I have to excel in every aspect. She says it’s useless for girls to go to universities. Rich, young ladies don’t need to be exposing themselves to the public eye all the time.”

Gu Qingyao: “…”
