NovelEnglishChapter 437: Fang Zhihan’s Innocent Friendship
Translator: Yunyi Editor: Yunyi
Yu Gangan looked puzzled as she fell into deep thought: “...”
Did Fang Zhihan and Gu Yanyu really run away because they didn’t want Gu Chen to remarry?
Yu Gangan remembered that Fang Zhihan once told her he would never forget Gu Shuling.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSo, Gu Shuling had clearly done something. It was even possible that she and her mother did something to Gu Yanyu just so her mother could marry into the Gu Family.
“After the accident, my brother went to live with his brother and only returned to celebrate the new year.”
Jiang Qi sighed, “All these years, Uncle Gu Chen has blamed my brother. He felt my brother was the cause of Gu Yanyu’s death; if he didn’t run away with Gu Yanyu, then nothing would have happened. But, my brother has still visited him every year.”
Yu Gangan supported her chin on her hand, “How could Fang Zhihan be blamed for this? He should blame himself for not handling his remarriage well, resulting in the two kids running away.”
“Half a year later, Uncle Gu Chen married Gu Shuling’s mother and Gu Shuling became the heiress of the Gu Family. Uncle Gu Chen treated Gu Shuling better than her mother. Everyone said it was a transference of feelings; that he’s simply transferred his love for Gu Yanyu onto Gu Shuling.”
“If Gu Yanyu was still alive, your brother would probably marry her, wouldn’t he?” Yu Gangan asked with slight jealousy.
“That’s not for certain. In my brother’s heart, Gu Yanyu was like a younger sister,” Jiang Qi also sounded a little jealous.
“Speaking of which, I sometimes feel quite jealous of Gu Yanyu because my brother treats her really well. There was a period of time when I was particularly close to Gu Shuling because of this jealousy. During that time, my brother was really cold towards me. He wouldn’t even let me call him ‘Brother’. Uncle Gu Chen transferred his love for Gu Yanyu to Gu Shuling, but my brother’s feelings never changed. Instead, he seemed to act on Gu Yanyu’s behalf: he was filial towards Uncle Gu Chen and he hated Gu Shuling and her mother. He has never been nice to them.”
As Jiang Qi spoke, she laughed awkwardly, “I’m not avoiding Gu Shuling intentionally, but my brother hates her and I only have one brother, so I can’t side with an outsider...”
Feeling a little uncomfortable, she asked, “Sister-in-law, do you think I am too much of a snob?”

Without hesitation, Jiang Qi immediately nodded her head, “Of course. No matter what, my brother is my brother.”
“Doesn’t that answer your question?” Yu Gangan smiled comfortingly. She then asked, “Does Gu Shuling like Fang Zhihan?”
Jiang Qi smiled awkwardly, “She’s liked my brother since she was a child. When she became the heiress of the Gu Family she even declared that she was replacing Gu Yanyu and marrying my brother in her place. No matter how nasty my brother was to her, she continued to pester him. She only became friends with me because she wanted to use me...”
Jiang Qi’s voice weakened and eventually stopped.
But, she suddenly raised her hand and said, “But, my brother has no feelings for her, whatsoever.”
Yu Gangan suddenly felt that her previous jealousy towards Gu Shuling was ridiculous.
She was not going to be blindly jealous again. At most, she was going to be jealous of Gu Yanyu a little because she was so close to Fang Zhihan when they were young. But, apart from that, there would be no other.
Jiang Qi’s expression turned more serious than ever as she asked carefully, “Sister-in-law, you won’t mention this to my brother, right?”
