Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations
After Ruan Xueling was discharged from the hospital, Tong Wan and Xiao Yize began preparations to return to the capital.
Before departing, Xiao Yize requested Gu Jin to meet him at the Qingya Residence.
Considering their acquaintance and Xiao Yizeâs friendship, Gu Jin agreed to see him off.
Raising his glass, Xiao Yize smiled, âMiss Gu, Iâll be waiting for you in the capital.â
Gu Jin reciprocated the gesture, meeting his expectant gaze. âHave a safe trip.â
Though just a simple farewell, it left Xiao Yize in high spirits for the rest of the day.
As the summer wore on, the cicadasâ chorus grew louder with each passing day. Unbeknownst to them, late June had already arrived.
Under Gu Jinâs skilled care as a Godly Doctor, Ruan Xuelingâs recovery progressed smoothly.
Following her discharge, Gu Zhaoming escorted Ruan Xueling and their children to the Ruan familyâs ancestral residence to visit Old Master Ruan. Subsequently, father and son-in-law engaged in a lengthy discussion in the study.
Old Master Ruan expressed his endorsement of Gu Zhaomingâs plan to return to the capital and reclaim their influence.
June 21st, the summer solstice, marked the 18th birthday of the Little Blood Bank.
The previous year, Gu Yang had promised Feng Jue that she would date him once he reached adulthood. She had secretly noted down his birthday at that time.
However, as Feng Jueâs flirtatious nature got the better of him, Gu Yang couldnât resist agreeing to be with him earlier than planned.
Before he became involved with Gu Yang, Feng Jue had eagerly anticipated his 18th birthday. But after starting his relationship with her, his birthday lost its significance.
Having grown up in an orphanage, his birthday held a different meaning for Feng Jueâit was the day he was adopted by the orphanage, as well as the day he was abandoned.
Thus, on this particular day, Feng Jue completely forgot about his own birthday.
Observing his oversight, Gu Yang chose not to remind him. Instead, she simply invited him out to spend time together.
With the college entrance exams behind them, Feng Jue had been preoccupied with the Dream Seeking Group. Gu Yang, on the other hand, had been frequenting the hospital to visit Ruan Xueling and care for Tong Wan. As a result, they hadnât been on a proper date in a while.
Now that Gu Yang initiated their outing, Feng Jue readily set aside his other commitments and followed Gu Yangâs lead.
âSister, where are we headed?â he inquired.
âAh Jue, would you like to go shopping with me at the mall?â
âOkay, Sister,â Feng Jue acquiesced.
Gu Yang escorted Feng Jue to Jin Cityâs preeminent shopping destination, Jin Chang Mall, which happened to be one of her sisterâs enterprises.
Preferring to keep her expenditures within the family, Gu Yang decided to patronize her sisterâs business for their shopping excursion.
Amidst a spree of purchases, Gu Yang selected an array of luxury brand clothing and footwear, all in matching couple styles.
When Gu Yang informed the shop assistant of her intention to procure couple outfits, Feng Jueâs eyes sparkled with excitement. Their clandestine relationship had yet to afford them the opportunity to wear matching attire.
Observing Feng Jueâs eager anticipation, he appeared hopeful as he addressed Gu Yang, âSister, are you considering publicly acknowledging our relationship?â
Longing for their bond to be openly acknowledged, Feng Jue yearned for the day when their relationship would be openly recognized.
Gu Yang blinked, momentarily hesitating to shatter Feng Jueâs misconception, but ultimately refrained from correcting him.
Gu Yang felt that now wasnât the right time. At least, not today.
She feared that publicly revealing their relationship might turn their planned birthday celebration into a melodramatic showdown between the father and son of a wealthy family.
Knowing Gu Zhaomingâs temperament, Gu Yang surmised that if Feng Jue were to cross him, Gu Zhaoming would likely retaliate harshly, perhaps even resorting to violence.
Suppressing her concerns, Gu Yang feigned a stern glare at Feng Jue. âSo, if we donât make our relationship public, you wonât wear couple outfits with me?â
Feng Jueâs mind raced with a flurry of thoughts, each one expressing his fondness for his sister. âDamn, my sister is so adorable,â he internally exclaimed.
With a keen sense of self-preservation, he swiftly shook his head vigorously and replied in a gentle, obedient tone, âIâm already thrilled to wear couple outfits with you. As for the rest, Iâll defer to your judgment.â
