Ms. Doctor Divine

"I wasn't very nice to you in the past. I have not shown much care to you, since I was too young in the past, and then later was sent to Jiayu Pass. We are half-sibilings, so we need to care and help each other."

"…"

"My mother is a narrow-minded person and she doesn't like you. That is why she has always been saying bad things about you to me. That is why I did not care about you in the past. Mom is reflecting on herself in the wing-yard, and I have also thought through many things."

"…"

"I will definitely be of some help, if you need me," Gu Yunhe said with a look of sincerity.

This was the best time for him to express himself.

As long as Gu Chaoyan could forgive him, he would still be the Elder Brother of the Phoenix Girl and he would be able to just go about in the capital without care.

He turned to Gu Chaoyan with expectation.

Actually, when she was little, she came to ask him why he could treat Ruxue well but not her.

Gu Chaoyan needed an Elder Brother in her heart, he believed.

He came late, but that was fine, wasn't it?

He had expressed himself so clearly. Even if he could not be accepted as her Elder Brother right now. He felt that she should at least acknowledge him as her Elder Brother.

Gu Chaoyan looked at Gu Yunhe and sneered.

How unexpected.

Gu Ruxue's father and Elder Brother deserted her after just one imperial order. And now they were here to beg her.

Things changed fast.

She should have been prepared. However… the speech sounded nice. He blamed his mother for treating her badly?

Gu Chaoyan did not dare to accept an Elder Brother who made his own mother take the blame.

What was more…

Did he think that she had forgotten what he did to her?

Mrs. Gu and Gu Ruxue set her up in secret so she was humiliated, but Gu Yunhe was bullying her right on the surface.

"I asked you why you bullied me all this time when I was six. You made the pageboys hit me, saying that I was a hideous person. I could not walk for ten days."

"…"

"You said that I was a weirdo who could only marry a low-class servant. Then you tried to make your servant rape me, but Qing stopped him and got beaten until she passed out. Then the servant stopped."

"…"

"And I can mention many more things you did when you were younger, but what did you do to Sword One, when she started to serve me? If Sword One were not working for Lord Huai, she would have been hurt." Gu Chaoyan glared at Gu Yunhe.

She could list the sins of this man and talk about this for hours.

This evil man tried to remove his past sins with a nice speech.

He indeed has no shame.

"What rights do you have to be my brother?" Gu Chaoyan continued. "I do have a brother, but he is not someone like you. He is Gu Yunxuan, who is working at the Ministry of Architecture."

"…"

"One family? You don't deserve to be my family."

"…"

"Gu Ruxue is receiving punishment now from someone else, but since you mentioned the past… then it seems that I should give you some punishment too."
