The story of Rose starts with being a brother

Chapter 375 Epilogue

Things happened just as Jian Xi expected. When the doctor said blood donation was needed, Nan Xiang revealed the little secret that she and Gu Li had the same blood type.

This little secret that they had kept for so many years made Nan Xiang feel as if she and Gu Li were blood sisters.

Perhaps emotionally, Lin Xiao is Gu Li's closest best friend, but during this time when she is seriously ill and dying, Nan Xiang and Gu Li are closer.

Ever since the besties had a big fight at Gong Ming's birthday party, the gap between them has never been eliminated. Later, when they should have been closest to getting back together, Xi Cheng's knife made them go their separate ways again.

Things like misunderstandings and hardships are indeed very melodramatic, but we have to admit that they do work.

When they saw and heard Gu Li recording his last words alone at home, the barriers of the past that were as solid as ice quickly melted away in the spring.

After Gu Li entered the operating room, the ice that had not yet completely melted suddenly broke and dissipated, allowing the spring water of friendship to flow once again.

What could be more important than life and death?
Is this a relationship that was forcibly mended by life and death? Jian Xi, who had been watching from the sidelines, didn't think so. This was not forced, it could only be said that Gu Li's situation accelerated the healing of the rift.

Although these members of the Times Sisters are more or less abnormal in their brains... they are not abnormal. Compared to many friendship groups, they are normal to the point of being abnormal.

For example, Gu Li would always worry about her besties' affairs, whether it was life or emotional problems, as long as she knew about it, she would definitely find a way to help her besties; for example, Lin Xiao, although she would go crazy from time to time when facing Gu Li, she was the only one who would never leave Gu Li, no matter how abstract Gu Li's actions were, she believed that Gu Li was not that kind of abstract person; for example, Tang Wanru, although she was a mouthful, she would rush up to her bestie when something happened, and then she got a knife in the mouth; and Nan Xiang, her feelings for Gu Li were the most complicated, with likes, dislikes, worries, and jealousy... The factors of her original family made her more sensitive, and her relationship with Gu Li was tighter than that of the other two besties, but as she said, she always regarded Gu Li as a real sister. There were still disagreements between sisters, let alone sisters like them who had different conditions in all aspects? But this would not make her hesitate at all when Gu Li was in danger and needed to donate blood...

The feelings between people have always been complicated. It is not one-sided to think that brothers and sisters will always have the same ideas and be good to each other, let alone the relationship between best friends, which is inherently unstable.

In comparison, sisters in this era can be regarded as the benchmark of friendship between besties. At least they are much better than those fake besties who appear to be affectionate and have fun together under the banner of having the same values ​​and thoughts, but in fact run away one after another when something goes wrong.

More than 90% of best friends in the world will basically stop talking to each other once they have a fight. They are nothing like the Times Sisters, the legendary queen of endurance, who have a method of forgiveness that can be called a rule-based system.

If you are my best friend, then come and tear me apart. It doesn’t matter how you tear me apart. If I don’t tear me apart, I’m not your best friend!
……

As for what happened to Gu Li, Jian Xi couldn't say that he cared that much, and as of now, he had already done what he could. Even if he was just doing it for the sake of convenience, he didn't have the energy to care about anything more.

It would be more accurate to say that he stayed with Lin Xiao and Nan Xiang in the hospital for a night rather than accompanying Gu Li. After the situation stabilized, he left the hospital to take care of his own business.

A fire broke out in the Gong family, and Gong Xun, the chairman of the Constanly Group, fell into a coma, resulting in a power vacuum in the Constanly Group. He had to take this opportunity to expand his victory.

In Jian Xi's eyes, this fire was very coincidental and strange. According to the information he had collected so far, Zhou Chongguang was the murderer of the fire. It was estimated that as soon as he woke up, the police would take criminal measures.

Tsk, Lu Shao Lu Shao, this name sounds like a guy who sets fires!

As for other aspects... he didn't care much about those things, he just wanted to take the other person's life while he was sick.

The fire at the Gong family cannot be concealed, and the fact that Zhou Chongguang is not dead must be thoroughly confirmed. In addition, Gong Xun is in a coma and Gong Ming is in prison... If the Constanly Group does not do something, this behemoth will be dragged into the bottomless abyss by the Gong family.

Wait, Gong Ming is in prison...

……

April 18th, Wednesday, it was drizzling in Shanghai.

In the teahouse in MH area, Jian Xi stopped holding the glass cup in mid-air. A flash of lightning flashed through his mind, making him stare at the Qinglongjing tea in the cup for a long time without moving.

"What's wrong?" Opposite him, his ally Ye Chuanping raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile, "Does the tea feel wrong or is there something else wrong?"

"No." Jian Xi came back to his senses and shook his head, then turned to look at the drizzling rain outside the window and said softly, "I just suddenly thought of the fire at the Gong family."

The rain was weaving diagonally, and several rain chains hung from the grey tile eaves of the teahouse. Water droplets slid down the links of the copper chains, making tiny sounds on the bluestone slabs. The wooden lattice windows were half-closed, letting in a damp breeze mixed with the scent of wood and tea leaves.

Indeed, listening to the rain while brewing tea is even more enjoyable.

Ye Chuanping tapped the table with his fingertips, thought for a moment and said, "Natural disasters and man-made disasters always come unexpectedly. Who could have expected the Gong family to suffer this disaster?"

After a pause, she laughed again: "But as of now, this fire is a good thing for us. I thought this war would last a little longer, but I didn't expect that a fire would save us so much effort."

Jian Xi nodded when he heard this, but there was not much smile on his face. Instead, his tone was a little puzzled: "The fire of the Gong family is burning well, but it is a little strange."

"It's quite strange." Ye Chuanping also sighed, "The father-son relationship in the Gong family has become a piece of dry wood. It's just that Zhou Chongguang didn't expect that just a little spark would almost make him bear the reputation of patricide."

It has been three days since the fire at Gong's house. During these three days, in addition to taking advantage of the Gong family's fire, Ye Chuanping also began to reflect on the situation of his own family and the Gong family.

After making such a comparison, she suddenly felt that her eldest son was better. Although it seemed that every family had its own problems, her eldest son was more love-minded and stubborn anyway.

It is impossible for a fire to burn down a house in your own home.

She was extremely angry with Haodaer before, but now, after comparing with the Gong family, Haodaer has become much more pleasing to Ye Chuanping's eyes.

"Is it Zhou Chongguang?"

At this time, Jian Xi turned the teacup in his hand and said this meaningfully.

"What else? The accident appraisal report has already come out." After Ye Chuanping finished speaking, he saw Jian Xi's strange expression and said after a moment of hesitation, "It is said that although Zhou Chongguang was groggy after waking up, he still admitted that he was the one who set the fire."

"That's it."

Jian Xi's expression slightly changed. He nodded and asked, "Aunt Ye, have you inquired about Gong Ming's news recently?"

"Gong Ming?"

Ye Chuanping was stunned, frowned, thought for a while, and then shook his head and said, "No, he is still in custody. When ME got into trouble, he chose to sacrifice himself to protect the Gong family. As a result, now... I guess he has already known what happened at home."

The Gong family was once so powerful, but now one of them is a vegetable and two of them are in prison. Even Ye Chuanping couldn't help but sigh.

Things are impermanent!
However, Jian Xi said meaningfully at this time: "Aunt Ye, I think you can pay more attention to the eldest son of the Gong family in the future."

"..."

Ye Chuanping's hand trembled slightly as she picked up the teacup, and the ripples in her eyes were like the tea in the cup. She could naturally hear the subtext in the other party's words, but the absurd idea just emerged and made her feel ridiculous. How could the fire be related to Gong Ming?

"Now that the Gong family is in trouble, the external pressure on the Constanly Group has suddenly increased. Yesterday, the board of directors dismissed Gong Xun from his position as chairman. The Gong family's share has been encroached upon by other directors, but Aunt Ye, don't forget that you are also one of those who encroached upon the Gong family's share."

A breeze mixed with the smell of rain blew in from the window, and along with Jian Xi's voice, it struck Ye Chuanping's heart.

She lowered her head and stroked the glass cup in her hand. Her eyes flickered and she suddenly laughed out loud: "So you think Gong Ming will come out and take up the responsibility of the Gong family?"

Jian Xi didn't say anything. Although the offensive against the Constanly Group had not stopped yet, he was already preparing to gradually withdraw. The subsequent situation of the Gong family had little to do with him.

According to the original agreement, he only wanted "ME", and Constanly Group was left to the Ye family.

Moreover, even if he retreated, he had already made a lot of money. If he continued to eat, he would easily suffer from indigestion. He still had this self-knowledge.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Ye Chuanping smiled again and said, "He is still locked up in there and can't get out. Constanly is out of reach of him."

"I understand." Jian Xi also smiled and said, "I'm just reminding you. After all, I don't know what Gong Ming's situation is in there, but what if... he is released one day?"

After a pause, Jian Xi took a sip of tea and continued, "After all, no one knows whether he has been in there for so long and whether he has really taken all the responsibility on himself?"

"..."

Ye Chuanping fell silent after hearing this, and some thoughts quickly spread in her mind.

The teahouse box suddenly became quiet. Rain was trickling outside the window. Jian Xi turned his head and saw a slightly stronger breeze, and a moist breath blew in his face.

"It would be nice if Xiao Lu Cha was here too."

The dog man looked out the window quietly and thought silently in his heart.

After a long time, Jian Xi turned around, picked up the teacup and took a sip. Seeing Ye Chuanping's calm face, he didn't know what she was thinking, so he smiled and said, "Aunt Ye, don't talk about this for now. When will you rescue Gu Yuan?"

This fire set by the Gong family not only brought an end to the Gong family, but also brought some other things to an end. Those things that have been delayed for a long time should also come to an end.

"We're already making arrangements to fill in the gap left by Sheng Gu. They say there was a technical error."

When talking about her eldest son, Ye Chuanping's tone became much more relaxed.

After all, she only has this one son, and she thought she would have to let Haodaer stay in there for a long time, and then get him out after things outside were almost settled. But now that an accident has happened, she doesn't want Haodaer to continue suffering in there.

It can be said that all parents in the world are pitiful.

However, Jian Xi suddenly asked, "Aunt Ye, do you think Gu Yuan will go to find Gu Li again?"

"..."

As soon as these unpleasant words were spoken, the atmosphere in the tea room suddenly became silent, and the smile on Ye Chuanping's face also froze.

It's not like she hasn't thought about this problem before, but every time she thinks about it, she gets a headache and even feels that it would be better to let her son stay locked up in there!
Of course, this angry thought was only fleeting, but the anger did not disappear.

Now that Jian Xi punctured the tire, she suddenly felt the air coming out.

Ye Chuanping, who had just been drinking tea and listening to the rain to cultivate his sentiments for a long time, looked a little unhappy and said in a bad tone: "Let him go find him. Gu Li is still lying in the hospital. I want to see what tricks he can come up with?!"

Gu Li's condition is no longer a secret. Everyone who should know knows it, including Gu Yuan who is still in the detention center. He is so anxious that he scratches his head, prays for Gu Li sincerely, and feels a little relieved...

Of course, he understood why Gu Li did those things to him. Some things could be figured out by just thinking about them a little bit with his love-brain.

Hehe, Gu Li doesn’t not love me, she just doesn’t want to drag me down, she loves me.

Regardless of whether this is self-brainwashing or not, at least in terms of insisting on pure love, Mr. Gu is considered a well-known figure in Modu Beach. It's a pity that he met Jian Xi...

"Aunt Ye, after so many things happened, do you think you can still stop Gu Yuan?"

"..."

The nephew continued to poke Ye Chuanping's lungs, but she really could not do anything about it.

What else can I do?
His son is willing to go to jail for others. If he continues to stop him, what if this stubborn boy suddenly gets angry and kills himself like Zhou Chongguang?
But despite this, Ye Chuanping still refused to accept her fate and said, "For his so-called love, I have to spend several hundred million to get him out! They just want to go to Gu Li without any hesitation. Their ability to spend money on love is even greater than the project I invested in. I can't stop them. At least I invested money in the project and I can still hear from them. Now these several hundred million are just asking for trouble!"

At this point, Ye Chuanping remembered something and sneered, "Gu Li can't have children now. I want to see how she still has the nerve to enter my house?!"

"But Gu Yuan doesn't care."

"..."

Very good, another sharp poke to the lungs. Ye Chuanping was so angry that her face became even gloomier. Even though she knew that the person in front of her was not Gu Li, she was still so angry that she wanted to slam the table.

After she calmed down a little, she seemed to have aged a lot in an instant. The high spirits she had shown after winning against the Constanly Group had completely disappeared.

"I don't know whether I owed Gu Yuan or Gu Li in my previous life. I have to fill the gaps in Sheng Gu, and I have to accept Gu Li as my daughter-in-law. Even my grandson..."

Ye Chuanping sighed deeply. The spring rain outside the window, which should have nourished the new buds, now became a depressing and dull rain in her heart, and the tea she drank also turned bitter.

Seeing this, Jian Xi, who was sitting opposite her, laughed and said, "Aunt Ye, maybe things are not as bad as you think."

Ye Chuanping glanced at him and didn't want to say anything more.

"It seems like I won the bet?" Jian Xi took out a document from his bag and put it on the table, diverting the attention of Ye Chuanping, who should have been angry after hearing his words.

"what is this?"

"Aunt Ye, what you have always wanted is the hidden legacy of Sheng Gu in Gu Li's hands."

Jian Xi's voice was not loud, but in Ye Chuanping's ears it instantly drowned out all the other sounds around her. She looked at the document on the table with shock on her face and almost stood up.

"Aunt Ye, I said at the beginning that I, as your nephew, would help you fulfill a small wish. How about that? Are you satisfied, Aunt Ye?"

Hearing Jian Xi's words, Ye Chuanping's expression changed slightly, but he didn't care too much. He nodded and picked up the document to read.

At this time, Jian Xi asked with a smile: "Aunt Ye, that bet..."

"..."

Ye Chuanping stopped what she was doing. She naturally remembered the content of the bet. Now that she had lost, she had to agree to help Hao Daer and Gu Li.

But just as she thought just now, even if she disagreed now, she had no choice but to continue to be in a stalemate with the two men.

Putting down the documents in his hand, Ye Chuanping took a deep breath, then nodded and sighed: "I am obviously the elder, but in the end I have to compromise with them..."

After a pause, she looked at Jian Xi and said, "It's hard for you to care so much about them."

"Haha, it's my fault that I'm always too soft-hearted and can't bear to see lovers not being able to get married." The dog man said with a smile.

Ye Chuanping stared at the documents on the table. The joy on her face that had just been shocked had now returned to normal. I don't know if she was wondering whether this was worth it.
Jian Xi smiled as he leaned forward to refill the two people's cups with tea, then he said slowly, "Aunt Ye, you don't seem happy to get this... Well, let me do something for you. Just tell me what I can do, and I'll think of a way for you. Let's celebrate the successful cooperation."

Ye Chuanping looked up at him and sneered, "After agreeing to their relationship, my Ye family will be extinct. I want a grandson, can you help me?"

"What a coincidence! I actually have a way to deal with this matter!"

"..."

The box fell silent and the atmosphere became a little weird for a moment, but Jian Xi acted as if nothing had happened. He picked up his phone, tapped a few times, and then looked at the other person with a smile again.

Ye Chuanping was really shocked this time. She stared at her nephew in front of her blankly, and spoke after a long while: "You said you have a solution? Isn't Gu Li unable to have children?"

"Gu Li can't have children, but it's not like other women can't have children."

"..."

Ye Chuanping finally realized what he was up to, and pouted, "You just wanted my consent for them to be together, and now... Let's not talk about whether Gu Yuan is willing or not. My Ye family doesn't have the habit of raising people outside. If I agree to let Gu Li come in, I, as a mother-in-law, have to maintain the family tradition. It's different from Gu Yansheng, a small family in the Gu family, who secretly gave birth to a child outside. Aren't you afraid that Gu Li will break off relations with you if she finds out about your suggestion?"

At this moment, facing this scumbag nephew in front of her, she found this extremely obvious commanding height. Then she continued: "Besides, not every woman is qualified to carry on the family line of my Ye family. Gu Li is considered a small family, and she would not accept such a thing. If any random woman could give birth to a grandson for me, I would not be worried."

"..."

Ye Chuanping sneered and said a lot of words to reject the proposal of Jian Xi, the old scum. The tone between the lines was no less than saying that the Ye family had an heir to the throne, and not every child born by a woman was qualified to inherit the throne.

Although Jian Xi was a little speechless, he could actually understand it. Although the Ye family did not have the throne, the Ye family's assets would increase greatly after digesting the spoils of the battle against the Gong family. Since Gu Li was infertile, if a woman really gave birth to a baby, it was almost foreseeable that the baby would become the future heir of the Ye family.

Gu Li's Gu Yiyuan is not very qualified. In Ye Chuanping's eyes, there are not many women who can catch her eye. And among those who can catch her eye, who would be willing to agree to do such a thing?
However, Jian Xi was not panicked. He smiled and took out his mobile phone and tapped it. Then a sound came from the phone.

"Gu Yuan, I don't doubt that you are willing to stay by my side and accompany me through this... But this is unfair to you. What I can't give you, at least let others give it to you..."

Gu Li's voice rang out in the box, and Ye Chuanping's expression immediately began to change, but as she listened, she subconsciously held her breath.

Thanks to the last words left by Gu Li, Jian Xi saved some effort. Who said that diaries are useless? It depends on how you use the content inside!
After the recording was finished, Jian Xi smiled and said, "Aunt Ye, this is Gu Li's idea. It seems that she agrees."

"This... She is willing to not marry into my Ye family?" Ye Chuanping didn't know if she was filled with surprise when she said this.

Just listening to the words just now, Gu Li's voice has never been so pleasant.

"No, that was before. It's definitely not the case now. But one person marries into the house, and the other person gives birth to the child!" said the dog man.

Ye Chuanping's face changed again: "I told you that not everyone is eligible, and among those who are eligible, who would be willing to have a child without a name or status?"

"It's one-sided, isn't it?" Jian Xi said with a smile, "Aunt Ye, except for Gu Yuan, I can't help you with this matter. I can help you solve the rest of your worries, otherwise..."

"Aunt Ye, you don't want to leave the assets that the Ye family has worked hard to build to the present day to the side branches of the Ye family, right? Or do you plan to adopt a grandson?"

"..."

Jian Xi's words instantly made Ye Chuanping's face look even uglier. She had just thought about these two options in her mind, and the latter one flashed by in her mind. Although she didn't like children born to poor families, adopting one was a little different. It could directly eliminate the trouble of those poor families trying to climb up, and there was no need to go through the trouble of killing the mother and keeping the child. However, there were still considerable risks, and if there was no blood relationship, it would be difficult for her to really like raising a grandson.

As for the former, leaving it to the Ye family's side branch... is feasible to a certain extent, but she still feels very unwilling. The grandchildren of the side branch are already quite distant from her, and in the future they will have nothing to do with her family at all. The thought of having them work for relatives makes her feel even more uncomfortable.

No, if she keeps thinking about it, she will continue to break up the couple and keep the stalemate between her and Haodaer.

After taking a few deep breaths, Ye Chuanping forced herself to calm down a bit, then looked at Jian Xi and said, "Just finish your words. If it's really appropriate... I will solve Gu Yuan's problem myself."

We can't just give up the Ye family's property like this. I think the standards of the questions just now can be lowered a bit. Even if it's a small family like Gu Li, we can just accept it.

Jian Xi's smile instantly brightened when he heard that. Gu Li, Gu Li, I hope you can bear this little punishment.

"Aunt Ye, remember I said before that we have another ally?"

"Ally?" Ye Chuanping was stunned, then nodded and said, "I remember, what does this have to do with it?"

"That's a big deal." Jian Xi said with a smile, "Aunt Ye, do you think this ally is qualified based on the strength he has shown in the past few days?"

"Qualifications?" Ye Chuanping was stunned again, and then said in disbelief, "Could this person be willing to..."

"Of course, the condition for her to help this time is that she hopes to be recognized by you again. She doesn't even care much about her status now."

"..."

After this short moment of excitement, Ye Chuanping calmed down. Looking at Jian Xi in front of her, her expression began to restrain. What was this nephew thinking about by being a pimp?
Jian Xi knew what the other person was thinking. He picked up the teacup and took a sip without any panic on his face.

He didn't want anything, Chunchun was just having fun, uh, Chunchun just thought it was interesting. If he wanted to punish Gu Li, he had to do it well. And as for that good brother Gu Yuan, Chunchun loved him too much and was a little bit stupid. Chunchun fell into Gu Li's hands all of a sudden when he was young, so it's not an exaggeration to say that he had never tasted good things.

Unlike our previous good brother Lao Meng, this way of pursuing pure love is quite acceptable to the scumbag.

Everyone says that I am a scumbag. I want to see how strong you can be in this situation?
This is a just counterattack from the scumbag!
In the tea room, Ye Chuanping thought for a long time before nodding and saying, "Next time, I will wait until I meet this ally before making a decision. Compared to other things, I am more curious about who this ally with a lot of money is."

"Aunt Ye, there's no need to wait until next time, this time will do." Jian Xi looked towards the door, "She is also in this teahouse, I just sent a message to ask her to come over."

Ye Chuanping looked surprised, and now she was even more certain that her nephew had planned this a long time ago.

"Aunt Ye, actually, you not only know this person, but you also have a close relationship with him. Otherwise, I wouldn't have said the word 're-recognize' just now."

Jian Xi chuckled and brought a final wave of anticipation to Ye Chuanping. Then, at the other party's puzzled look, he picked up his phone and sent a message.

"She's at the door."

"Crench!"

Just as Jian Xi finished speaking, the wooden door of the tea room was pushed open, and a girl in a light blue dress walked in.

Ye Chuanping only took a glance, then really stood up and said in a lost voice: "Yuan Yi?!"

"Auntie Ye, long time no see, how are you doing recently?"
