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

But she always appeared somewhat reserved and even a little nervous in his presence.

She didn't even have the courage to look him in the eye for a second or two, her gaze constantly wandering.

"Just call me Gu Qing, no need to be so polite."

After thinking it over, Gu Qing decided to take the initiative so that Gu Yuan could have a better life in the future.

This proactive step clearly made Su Xiyue very happy.

Even his tone of voice rose a little.

"Then...then you can call me by my name, or you can call me Xiyue like my mom and Uncle Gu do!"

Su Xiyue seemed somewhat excited.

Where is the cool and aloof school beauty?

He's so considerate and proactive, isn't he?

Unaware that his image in Su Xiyue's eyes had already crumbled, Gu Qing looked at the pink decorations in the room with a conflicted expression, and after hesitating for a moment, finally spoke:

"Could you please do me a small favor, Su... Xiyue?"

As he spoke, Gu Qing glanced at Su Xiyue.

Her alluring peach blossom eyes were paired with a pair of watery eyes that made it impossible for anyone to resist her.

"Leave it to me!"

Gu Qing's initiative seemed to ease Su Xiyue's tension, revealing some of her true nature.

Unfortunately, no matter how much the two flat surfaces are battered, they will never create peaks.

Su Xiyue is good-looking. At 1.7 meters tall, she is a head taller than Gu Qing, which gives her a pair of long legs.

Unfortunately, her flat figure made it difficult for Gu Qing to have any unusual thoughts.

"I don't need those toys on the bedside table. You can put them in another room."

"And take down all the stickers and posters on the wall, I don't like them."

"Also, I brought my own curtains. If it's alright, could you please take down these pink curtains as well?"

Gu Qing didn't stand on ceremony.

Since they intend to start getting to know each other, the Su family mother and daughter will eventually find out his true preferences.

Therefore, there's no need to hide anything; just say it directly.

Upon hearing Gu Qing's request, Su Xiyue felt that Gu Qing's aloof and cold school beauty persona had been rebuilt once again.

She truly is the unattainable beauty and ethereal fairy of No. 2 Middle School.

The cute things that other boys like have absolutely no effect on Gu Qing.

Even the celebrity posters on the wall, which were very popular among students, showed undisguised disdain and contempt to Gu Qing.

No wonder she's the top beauty in the grade; her taste alone is so much better than the other boys'—she's on a completely different level!

While busy, Su Xiyue was mentally constructing an image of Gu Qing.

Gu Qing herself opened her suitcase, took out her three-piece bedding set, and replaced all the pink ones with her favorite blue ones.

Then, to Su Xiyue's astonishment, Gu Qing neatly placed a Tang sword, along with its stand, on the desk.

"This is……"

Su Xiyue looked at the Tang sword, and for a moment she couldn't think of anything to say.

Gu Qing took the Tang sword in his hand, pulled open a section of the scabbard, and revealed the gleaming blade to Su Xiyue.

With a sweet smile on her face, she explained:

"After all, the father and son lived alone before, so it's inevitable that they would be a little wary."

Although the smile was sweet, Su Xiyue couldn't help but feel a chill run down her spine when Gu Qing drew his sword.

A defensive mentality?

Who are we guarding against? Her?

Strange, why would I think that?

Su Xiyue's thoughts once again fell into a state of confusion.

Just thinking about the scene of me breaking into Gu Qing's room one day and being torn apart by this Tang sword fills me with fear.

To everyone's surprise, the inside of the aloof school beauty was black after being cut open!

Meanwhile, Su Changqin, who had finished her work downstairs, entered Gu Qing's bedroom.

After glancing at the room that had been cleaned, he showed no particular expression.

He paused for a moment, then looked on with understanding after seeing the Tang sword lying across the sword rack on the desk.

Su Changqin gently stroked Gu Qing's smooth black hair with a hint of tenderness and said to him, "Qingqing, you've really had a hard time before."

"Don't worry, from now on, Xiyue and I will protect you and your father. Leave it to us!"

"That's right!"

Su Xiyue quickly echoed her sentiment.

At the same time, dispel the image in your mind of Gu Qing dismembering her with a knife.

"Then I'll have to trouble Aunt Su and Xiyue."

Gu Qing's "sweet" smile—how much of it was genuine and how much was fake—only he himself knew the truth.

It took Gu Qing more than an hour to finish tidying up her bedroom.

Frequently used items are arranged according to habit, and daily toiletries are placed in the bathroom on the second floor.

Once everything was almost ready, Gu Qing and Su Xiyue went downstairs together, accompanied by Gu Yuan's call.

After sitting down in one corner of the L-shaped sofa, Gu Qing heard Su Changqin say:

"We are now one family, and we should look after each other."

"Qingqing, Xiyue and I don't have your prestige yet. Let's add each other now and then create a family group."

Gu Qing nodded, took out his phone, which had been used for two years and had some scratches on the edges, opened his WeChat account, and displayed his QR code.

After adding the Su family mother and daughter, Gu Qing added a note.

There were no special notes, just my real name.

Su Xiyue's WeChat profile picture is quite interesting; it's a silver-white mecha, but I wonder where it comes from.

"It really reflects the characteristics of girls in this world..."

"Sigh..." Looking at Su Xiyue's profile picture, Gu Qing couldn't help but sigh inwardly again.

Mecha, that's clearly a man's romance!

9. Your dream guy is cooking for me.

Is this the prestige of Gu, the school beauty?

Su Xiyue stared at the profile picture on her phone, a strange and inexplicable emotion welling up inside her.

Gu Qing's WeChat profile picture is similar to his personal style; it's not the kind of beautified selfie that most boys use, nor is it an anime character or a cute pet.

Instead, the landscape paintings tend to appeal to middle-aged and elderly viewers.

A white cloud drifts across the azure sky.

Putting everything else aside, this style does bear some resemblance to Su Changqin's portrait of "High Mountains and Flowing Water".

The WeChat name is nothing fancy, just the simple two characters "Gu Qing".

Su Xiyue thought for a moment, then clicked on Gu Qing's profile picture and opened her Moments.

Although she had expected it, the blank space still made her shake her head.

Afterwards, Su Changqin created a WeChat group called "We Are a Loving Family" and added several people to it.

"It's almost noon. I've already made a reservation at the restaurant. Let's go eat!" Su Changqin said.

Upon hearing this, Su Xiyue instinctively prepared to stand up.

But just then, Gu Qing rested her head on her cheek with one hand, tilting her head slightly, and spoke in a clear voice:

"Aunt Su, I think it would be better to eat this meal at home."

Gu Qing's expression was very serious, with an emotion that Su Xiyue couldn't understand.

Gu Yuan nodded in sudden realization.

Su Changqin, the head of the family, had a glimmer of hope in her eyes.
