Reborn as a woman in a superpowered society: My father remarried and gained an older sister.

Moreover, once men reach a certain age, whether it's for conversation at the dinner table or because they suddenly have an epiphany, they will always become interested in certain macro-level matters.

However, in this world where the relationships between men and women are reversed, Gu Qing's behavior seems rather unconventional.

What's more, he's still a high school student.

Therefore, Su Changqin, who also came out of the kitchen, did not see Gu Qing's round and alluring white-stockinged ankles, but rather the newspaper.

"how do you feel?"

As Su Changqin took out tea leaves from the drawer under the coffee table, she asked.

She naturally didn't expect Gu Qing to offer any conclusions or opinions.

Let alone high school boys, even college girls, except for those majoring in related fields, wouldn't have any opinions.

But unexpectedly, Su Changqin heard Gu Qing's brief yet meaningful reply.

It's raining in Macondo.

Gu Qing stared at the information on the newspaper, her voice as clear and gentle as ever, but with a noticeable hint of deepness.

Upon hearing this answer, Su Changqing, who was brewing tea, suddenly paused in his movements, only returning to normal two seconds later.

"yes--"

Su Changqin sighed deeply, then looked at Gu Qing with a complicated expression.

The emotions hidden in those eyes were something Su Xiyue couldn't understand at all, and had never even seen before.

What riddle are these two people solving?

Three question marks popped into Su Xiyue's little head.

"Don't you understand?"

After washing the tea, Su Changqin glanced at her good-for-nothing daughter.

"The answer is in the seventh book on the third row of my study bookshelf, from left to right."

Su Xiyue was naturally not foolish enough to go to the study to seek answers.

She hadn't had enough of the "beautiful scenery" before her!

After choosing a good spot with a view, she took out her phone and started searching for Macondo.

"So it's a town in the Southern Continent, but it doesn't seem to be raining..." Su Xiyue murmured.

Su Changqin rubbed her temples, as if she had a headache.

She has decided that the next time she visits her deceased husband's grave, she will definitely ask him: Why didn't you shoot him on the wall back then!

……

The afternoon's schedule is for purchasing.

Although the Gu family father and son came with luggage, they still discarded a lot of old items while packing.

In addition, the daily consumption of two people is completely different from that of four people, so many things need to be replenished.

The purchase took place at the Nandu Shopping Mall in Los Angeles, a typical urban complex integrating shopping, dining, and entertainment.

Although she had been in Los Angeles for over a year, Gu Qing had only visited the mall a handful of times.

The items here are definitely not good value for money in terms of price.

Therefore, Gu Qing herself had almost no desire to shop.

On the contrary, Gu Yuan kept looking at cosmetics and the latest men's and women's clothing.

"Qingqing, you need to learn how to go shopping and dress yourself up. Don't just keep changing the same few outfits all year round!"

Gu Yuan said this while holding up a casual shirt to Gu Qing.

“I think Uncle Gu is right!” Su Xiyue agreed.

Su Xiyue felt she had a lot to say about Gu Yuan's fashion sense.

Firstly, because Gu Qing looks good, it's pleasing to the eye for her.

Secondly, when she was tidying up Gu Qing's room, she saw that Gu Qing had only stuffed less than five sets of clothes into that huge wardrobe.

Not only were there fewer girls than she did, but what was even more outrageous was that all five outfits were basically the same style and in simple black and white tones.

Actually, this was a habit of Gu Qing's from her previous life.

Men only need two or three sets of clothes for each season.

Too lazy to choose, he often makes repeated purchases once he finds a comfortable and likable style.

Decades of ingrained habits, coupled with an instinctive aversion to "makeup" and "dressing up," have left Gu Qing with absolutely no interest in her own fashion choices.

Clean and tidy is fine!

But the other three clearly didn't think so.

Of course, the beautiful Gu Qing should wear beautiful clothes!

As a result, with Gu Qing in a near-collapse state, he had to add a few more everyday clothes to his wardrobe.

The only thing I've stuck to is that I absolutely refuse to wear super short shorts!

"Qingqing is surprisingly conservative!" Su Changqin commented with a smile.

Gu Qing could only scratch his head, speechless.

He also wanted to go out in shorts and flip-flops, just like in his previous life.

But as soon as he went out dressed like that, the women looked at him with eyes that seemed to want to devour him!

"Being conservative is actually a good thing!" Su Xiyue said with a grin.

Conservative in public, casual at home—is there anything better?

The thought of the school's unattainable beauty cooking for her at home every day, and the sights that only she could enjoy and no one else could see, filled Su Xiyue with joy.

So much so that the smile on his lips was hard to hide.

"What are you so happy about? Don't you usually dislike shopping?"

Su Changqin glanced at her daughter, who was grinning foolishly.

"I don't like shopping with other people, but it's a different story when I'm with my family!"

Su Xiyue spread her hands, feeling quite clever for coming up with a reason that no one could find fault with.

12. Gu Qing, who controls the finances

When we returned to the villa, it was already sunset.

After organizing all the things she bought, Gu Qing took a shower in the bathroom on the second floor.

Although the bathtub in the bathroom looked very tempting, Gu Qing was still a little uneasy about cleaning it herself, so she chose to give it up.

Since they were eating out that evening, Gu Qing changed into a soft, light blue bathrobe.

On her way back to the bedroom, she glanced down at the living room and found only her father, Gu Yuan, lying on the sofa playing on his phone.

Meanwhile, in the study on the first floor, the Su family mother and daughter were talking.

Su Changqin looked at her daughter and asked, "Did you notice Qingqing's actions after she came back?"

"What action?" Su Xiyue asked somewhat guiltily.

In fact, she certainly noticed it.

Or rather, from the very beginning, her gaze rarely strayed from Gu Qing.

Originally, she thought of this aloof school beauty from No. 2 High School as someone who was "to be admired from afar but not to be trifled with."

But now that they're family, a feeling called "possessiveness" is gradually growing.

Therefore, she naturally noticed Gu Qing's actions after he returned.

For example, the tiny feet she wanted to touch when changing shoes in the entryway; the fragrant sweat on her smooth forehead; the pattering sound of water coming from the bathroom upstairs.

Just hearing her voice makes her want to eat three bowls of rice!

—Did Mom find out what I was thinking?

At this moment, Su Xiyue felt a little panicked.

Su Changqin's ability to reach her current position speaks for itself, and her insight is undoubtedly sharp.

However, this keen insight, stemming from her long-standing understanding of her daughter, prevented her from drawing any deeper connections.

Suddenly, a beautiful young woman of the opposite sex, the same age as you, appears in your home, and everyone takes a second look.

As for other thoughts, Su Changqin felt that Su Xiyue wouldn't have them.

Or rather, even if they exist, they are the kind who have the desire and the audacity to indulge in lust.

No one understands Su Xiyue better than her; this is the confidence of Su Changqin as a mother.
