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

He definitely needs to go to the driving school to take a look.

Because he will turn 18 next month.

He has also put getting his driver's license on his agenda.

However, this process might be much simpler than Su Xiyue's.

In his previous life, as a war correspondent, driving was an essential skill for him.

Even if you haven't touched a steering wheel in over a decade, you can quickly master it with just a little recollection and some practice.

"Then it's settled!"

Su Xiyue smiled, surprised by the unexpected gain.

She was already beautiful, but under the sunlight, she looked even more youthful and radiant.

Gu Qing was somewhat dazzled by the sudden light.

Su Xiyue has grown a lot recently and has become more composed than before.

But this composure did not diminish her vitality; on the contrary, it increased her confidence and courage.

In the past, a beautiful young woman like this, radiating youthful energy and possessing social skills, would likely have been a goddess in many people's eyes.

Even in this world, Su Xiyue would have some suitors.

Amidst the chaotic confessions in the auditorium of No. 2 Middle School, Su Xiyue's name once resounded.

However, because Gu Qing and Su Xiyue were so close, many boys who secretly admired Su Xiyue didn't dare to express their feelings.

Very few people of the same age and gender can maintain their confidence in front of Gu Qing.

The multiple pressures from appearance, knowledge, and temperament always make them feel ashamed and self-deprecating.

The head massage continued until Su Xiyue's hands became sore, at which point she stopped under the pretext of pouring Gu Qing another glass of water.

After drinking a few more sips of water, Gu Qing checked the time and realized it was already five o'clock in the afternoon.

"If you can't come back by yourself tonight, you can call me."

Gu Qing thought for a moment and then said.

Tonight, Su Xiyue will be celebrating her birthday with some of her classmates and friends outside. They might go to a karaoke bar after dinner.

Drinking a little is inevitable, and Gu Qing didn't intend to dissuade him, so she just gave him a reminder.

Su Xiyue had invited him to go with her before, but he declined.

He wasn't familiar with Su Xiyue's classmates and friends, and given his special relationship with Su Xiyue, this birthday party between friends could easily become awkward.

Many things that could be said become unspeakable with him present.

Rather than making the atmosphere awkward, let Su Xiyue have some fun.

An eighteenth birthday is a once-in-a-lifetime event.

However, Gu Qing believes that the time when a person truly comes of age is never determined by their birth year.

It's not about when the parents passed away.

Before leaving, Su Xiyue knocked on Gu Qing's door.

When the door opened, a hint of appreciation flashed in Gu Qing's eyes.

Su Xiyue wore a blue and white striped polo shirt on her upper body and light blue denim shorts on her lower body.

Two shapely, slender legs were exposed, ending in a pair of pure white summer sandals that revealed rounded toes.

Instead of letting her hair down or tying it into a ponytail, she wore two light buns on either side of her head.

Overall, it gives people a sense of energetic and lively beauty.

Gu Qing has always appreciated this kind of vibrant and energetic style of dress.

Moreover, Su Xiyue is already very beautiful, which adds to her charm.

Another noteworthy point is that Su Xiyue wore a jade-green pendant around her neck, the very one Gu Qing had given her.

"How is it? Are you handsome?"

Su Xiyue pretended to be vain in front of Gu Qing.

"Very lively and beautiful!"

Gu Qing looked them over and gave Zhongken's evaluation.

"That's not how you compliment a girl, Gu Qing, you're being way too perfunctory!"

Su Xiyue pouted, feeling resentful.

"My fault."

Gu Qing then realized that she had indeed misspoke, so she reorganized her words and said, "He is very handsome and sunny!"

Gu Qing still felt a little awkward saying those words.

The world's aesthetic standards are always diverse, but everyone's pursuit of beauty is the same.

In the eyes of others, especially girls, Gu Qing is the kind of girl who is beautiful, aloof, and ethereal.

In his own eyes, however, he appeared somewhat thin and frail, with a feminine appearance and lacking masculinity.

As for Su Xiyue, in his eyes she was lively and beautiful, and sometimes a little silly and cute.

When she occasionally stared at him blankly, Gu Qing would only think that this girl was being silly and daydreaming again.

But in other people's eyes, Su Xiyue is a sunny and handsome girl with delicate and soft features and a relatively slender and well-proportioned figure.

Some guys might like this type, while others might prefer women who are tall, strong, and muscular.

As for Su Xiyue's infatuated stare at Gu Qing...

In other people's eyes, that might be considered sleazy.

In conclusion, differences in perspectives and aesthetics often lead to different views of a person.

There is no right or wrong, only like or dislike.

"Then I'll leave first."

Su Xiyue waved at Gu Qing, paused as she turned around, then turned back and said:

"Also, thank you Gu Qing for the gift, I like it very, very much!"

After leaving those words, the girl quickly went downstairs.

Gu Qing watched Su Xiyue's departing figure for a while until she could no longer see it before turning around and returning to her bedroom.

On his desk lay a pile of printed foreign language materials, as well as two books of reportage written by foreign scholars.

Having been a war correspondent in his previous life, he was extremely sensitive to events that could trigger war or bloodshed.

For example, regarding the recent overseas conflicts, he speculated that the matter was unlikely to end in the short term.

This is not just a conflict between two countries, but a power struggle between major nations.

Since the world has been connected by invisible waves, there are no longer any local or regional events.

There is always an invisible hand manipulating things behind the scenes.

In this life, Gu Qing has no intention of returning to his old profession as a war correspondent.

However, he has always paid attention to current events, the situation of various parties, and international competition.

In order to gain a deeper understanding of the factors behind this, he is working hard to fill in the gaps in the history of this world.

When Gu Qing gets to university, she will use these experiences as a foundation to create her own self-media platform.

On the one hand, it can prevent one's knowledge and understanding from one's previous life from becoming rusty, and on the other hand, it can naturally provide financial compensation.

Moreover, Gu Qing herself thoroughly enjoyed the process.

After studying the materials at hand for a while, Gu Qing turned on her computer and logged into a forum.

This is an international forum for political commentary.

The members come from all over the country, and the information is collected and updated very quickly.

Gu Qing has been quietly diving here for a long time.

He logs in here every day to check the latest news.

Today's forum remains focused on the conflict that has garnered global attention.

The side that gained the upper hand forcibly bound a hegemonic power to its war machine, ignoring the mediation of the coalition and continuing to bombard the land with firepower.

This act caused massive civilian casualties and was an act of genocide.

Gu Qing watched for only a short while before feeling a pang of sorrow, which eventually turned into a long sigh.
