Forced into a romantic relationship.

Trying to change the past is tantamount to becoming the enemy of the past. Having lost his "passionate youth," Han Zhou is unsure whether his luck will be good or bad going forward.

Meanwhile, in a hotel room in the Wushan Scenic Area.

"Guzheng, it's raining so hard now, you'd better not go out."

Gu Lang looked at his daughter who was putting on her coat, his expression somewhat helpless.

With the high school entrance exam approaching, he was naturally quite at ease with his daughter, who consistently ranked first in her grade, but he was also worried that she was under too much pressure, so he took her out to relax during the May Day holiday.

I thought that Guzheng, who was focused on her studies, would be less interested, but to my surprise, she kept asking to go out and play shortly after arriving at Wushan Scenic Area, even though it was raining heavily outside.

If that were all, it wouldn't be so bad, but Guzheng wouldn't let them come along, clearly trying to keep it from them. How could he possibly feel at ease?

Gu Zheng didn't answer, but asked while putting on her shoes, "Dad, do you think I'll meet someone I like in the future?"

Upon hearing this, not only Gu Lang but also Miao Yan'er beside him were stunned for a moment, and then asked with a smile, "Hey Xiao Zheng, you wouldn't happen to be in an online relationship, would you?"

Yes, online dating! That explains it!

Gu Lang suddenly realized what was going on, and then sneered inwardly. What kind of rascal is this? He's trying to scam my daughter with an online romance. If I catch him, I'll break his legs!

“It’s not an online romance. Do I look like I have time for an online romance?” Gu Zheng rolled her eyes at her mother.

“Uh…” Gu Lang’s face immediately fell. “Then why don’t you try online dating…”

These days, Guzheng is completely focused on her studies and has almost no time to rest. Since falling out with her best friend, she has even stopped socializing. Rather than continue like this, she might as well try online dating to relax.

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

Miao Yan'er patted her husband on the shoulder and smiled at her daughter, who had put on her shoes and stood up: "Xiao Zheng, why are you suddenly concerned about this?"

"I was just asking casually."

Gu Zheng went into the bathroom to wash her hands, took off the hair tie from her wrist, and tied up her long hair. "Do you think there will ever be someone in the future who likes me a lot, and I like him a lot too?"

Long hair is such a hassle. I'll cut it short after the high school entrance exam... The girl thought to herself as she looked in the mirror.

"Of course."

Gu Lang chuckled and said, "You're so outstanding, the people who like you would line up all the way to Lincheng. But if you find a guy you like, you have to bring him home to meet me and your mom first, so we can give you our opinion. Also, while you may like him, you absolutely can't love him more than you love your dad..."

"Get out of here." Miao Yan'er was speechless.

Gu Zheng laughed, her eyes curving into beautiful crescents: "Then tell me, if there really is such a person, should I be nice to him?"

"Of course."

Miao Yan'er covered her husband's mouth and said with a smile, "You treat him well, and he treats you well in return. You give without expecting anything in return. That's what mutual affection is."

"I see..."

Gu Zheng thought for a moment, then scooped up a handful of water and splashed it on her face. "One last question: If I have someone I like, should I try my best to become number one in their heart?"

Miao Yan'er and her husband exchanged a glance, and smiles appeared on their faces simultaneously.

"Is that even a question?"

They never hesitated to support their daughter in becoming number one.

"I understand."

When Guzheng looked in the mirror again, she saw the determination in her own eyes.

"I'm going out, I'll be back later."

Gu Zheng walked out of the hotel room and gently closed the door.

The rain outside sounded even heavier than inside the hotel. Large raindrops pounded against the umbrella, making a dull pattering sound, as if someone was shouting in her ear, urging her not to do anything foolish.

She took a deep breath and suddenly realized that she seemed to have much less courage than she had in the hotel. She had been so determined just a moment ago, but now she was starting to hesitate again.

In the end, she walked into the rain, recalling the phone call she had received not long ago.

The voice on the phone was that of an unfamiliar girl. At first, she thought she had dialed the wrong number, but the other party quickly gave her name, age, current location, and even some little secrets that only she knew.

So she had no choice but to believe what the other person said for the time being, and listen to the rest of the story in front of her parents.

This was what shocked her the most: during the subsequent call, the stranger didn't speak again, and she heard her own voice on the phone.

According to the girl, it was actually a recording from the future. Guzheng scoffed at this, but after listening to the entire recording, she felt that it might be real.

Voices may be faked, but tone and habits cannot. She knows herself, and her future self obviously knows herself too, which is why she speaks in this tone and uses those little secrets to prove her identity.

Maybe it's not a scam... she thought.

Even if all of this is true, why should she risk her life to save someone she doesn't even know now, just because of a few words from her future self?

Even if that person is someone I like in the future.

Gu Zheng had no idea what liking was, which is why she asked her parents those questions, but even so, she still didn't have much of a clue.

Perhaps you can only understand that feeling when you truly fall in love with someone.

But why did I still come out?

Gu Zheng couldn't understand it at first, but as she watched the rain get heavier, she finally understood.

She didn't go out to save anyone this time; she just wanted to respond to her future self.

That somewhat silly version of myself, who had lost my competitive spirit, seemed to have become what's known as being obsessed with love.

She still remembers the last words her future self said on the phone—

"There is no sun today, would you like to be his sun?"

That's absolutely stupid.

But since it is her future self's wish, then it is naturally her wish as well.

In addition, she also wanted to see in advance what kind of person she would fall in love with in the future.

Chapter 719 Clouds and Flowers

No wonder the future senior was so afraid of heavy rain; it's hard not to be scared in such terrible weather...

Han Zhou ran wildly on the mountain road. Although the "Crossing Mountains and Ridges to See You" feature automatically avoids obstacles, the mountain road was too rugged. In the extremely low visibility, his cheeks were still scratched by tree branches in several places, and his raincoat was tattered.

Although it wasn't serious, the fact that he got injured before even arriving at his destination shows that he was really unlucky.

[Estimated time remaining: thirteen minutes]

Looking at the prompt in front of him, Han Zhou wished he could run faster, but his speed was not affected by his will. He could only stuff strength pills into his mouth from time to time to recover the little strength he had used to "cross mountains and rivers to see you".

He had only one thought in his mind right now—hopefully it wasn't too late.

Besides that, he only hoped that the current Guzheng would not be bewitched by the future Guzheng. Logically speaking, she is already in the third year of junior high school, so she shouldn't be so easy to fool, right?

No... Guzheng is different from Yixia. She doesn't see her present self and her future self as two different people. She's probably already set off.

Thinking of this, Han Zhou felt a headache coming on. He took out his magic telescope and checked the location of Gu Zheng. He found that she was indeed sitting in a private car. The driver was a stranger, and he didn't know how she got into the car.

Meanwhile, Zhong Yin and his family were chatting and laughing, completely unaware of the impending danger.

"Xiaoling, don't press your face against the glass."

Ye Xiaorou handed a bag of sliced ​​apples to her two daughters in the back seat and gently reminded her younger daughter, who was wearing an earphone and looking at her phone.

"Ah."

Zhong Ling felt a little embarrassed, so she quickly sat up straight, took the apple, and turned to look out the car window.

In the rain, the mountains and trees were blurred into dark shadows, and visibility was extremely low. Not far ahead, a dark cave entrance could be vaguely seen at the foot of the mountain, where several figures in raincoats were busy.

"Mom, what do those people do?" she asked curiously.

"not sure."

Ye Xiaorou peeked out and smiled faintly, "It should be the construction team."

"Do you still have to work in such heavy rain?"

“After all, he’s an adult now,” Zhong Chengguang, who was driving, replied with a smile.

"Adults don't necessarily have to work very hard."

Ye Xiaorou glanced at her husband, "It just started raining, we'll probably have to wrap up work soon."

As she spoke, she suddenly noticed that her eldest daughter seemed a little absent-minded, and asked with concern, "Xiaoyin, what's wrong? Is something on your mind?"

Zhong Yin shook his head: "It's nothing, I just suddenly remembered some things from the past."

If Zhong Yin from the future came here, she would find that the past had already begun to change. She hadn't even had a chance to say those words when her younger sister interrupted her.

"You mean Wukong?" Ye Xiaorou asked with a smile.

Zhong Yin's expression changed slightly. She took a big bite of the apple but did not answer.

"Wukong...it seems like the last time I saw him and Xiaoya was five years ago, right?"

Zhong Chengguang looked nostalgic and chuckled, "Time flies so fast. It feels like just yesterday. I still remember him saying he would take responsibility for you all..."

“Dad!” Zhong Yin interrupted him, her face flushed.

"Okay, okay, I won't say anything more."

Zhong Chengguang smiled, looking ahead as the windshield wipers swung back and forth, clearing the rain from the glass. "I won't get involved in your young people's affairs, but I have a feeling you'll meet again someday."

"Why?" Zhong Ling asked curiously as she ate an apple.

"Because Dad had a dream last night."

Zhong Chengguang smiled mysteriously, "Xiaoling married Brother Wukong when she grew up."

Zhong Ling was stunned, her face flushed, and she lowered her head: "Shouldn't...shouldn't I be marrying my sister...?"

"Little Bell!" Zhong Yin pretended to be angry and quickly reached out to pinch his sister's cheek, making the latter giggle.

"Haha, yeah, I was wondering the same thing. Why did I dream that Xiaoling and Wukong got married? So I asked Wukong in my dream, and guess what he said?"

Before his two daughters could answer, Zhong Chengguang burst into laughter and gave his own answer: "He said, 'Dad, can you marry both of your daughters to me?'"

Zhong Yin rolled her eyes: "Mom, you should talk to Dad. He's been joking about this kind of thing a lot lately."

"Your dad isn't joking."

Ye Xiaorou said with a smile, "I had the same dream last night too."
