Now that Su Shen had returned, Gu Zi thought it best to let him make the decision regarding the bracelet.

Su Shen’s gaze rested on the bracelet before him. A rare smile graced his lips, and he remarked to Su Jing, “Thank goodness you still have it. You didn’t sell it for gambling.

Indeed, Su Shen immediately recognized the bracelet—it was a pair, once part of his mother’s dowry.

Before she departed, she had secretly entrusted it to his unreliable little sister, Su Jing. In a private moment, their mother had confided in him that the bracelet was a test meant to temper Su Jing’s character.

He knew that his mother was biased towards his little sister and would always spend a lot of effort on her. Even on her deathbed, Su Jing was the one she missed the most.

However, he felt that there was nothing to be jealous of. He did not even think that there was anything abnormal about it.

Su Jing looked at him in surprise. “Don’t tell me you knew I had this bracelet all along?” she asked.

Because she could see that Su Shen was not surprised at all why the bracelet was in her hand. It was obvious that he had known about it long ago.

With a sharp gleam in his eyes, Su Shen replied, “Of course, I knew, but I was waiting for you to take it out yourself. Gu Zi, this belongs to you now.”

Su Shen carefully picked up the bracelet and placed it onto Gu Zi’s wrist. As their eyes met, they both blushed, and Gu Zi uttered her gratitude, saying to Su Jing, “Thank you for safeguarding it all these years.”

Su Jing was still processing the shock; she had always believed that her mother had entrusted the bracelet to her secretly, without anyone else’s knowledge. It was a revelation that Su Shen had known all along, yet he had never asked her to reveal it.

A warm surge of emotion welled up within Su Jing, eventually manifesting as tears that welled up in her eyes. She threw herself into Gu Zits embrace, crying, and lamented to Su Shen, “Why didn’t you tell me sooner? If I had known, I wouldn’t have made such grievous mistakes!”

She regretted her choices, particularly her involvement with someone as terrible as Tian Hai. Su Jing couldn’t help but berate herself for it.

Seeing her in such disarray, her face flushed with tears and snot, Su Shen couldn’t help but feel a sense of disgust. She had soiled his wife.

Su Le couldn’t sit still when she saw Su Jing crying while hugging her mother.

She crawled over from the other side of the sofa and pulled Su Jing away.

Asserting her dominance, she declared, “Mom! Lele’s mom!”

Su Jing had no choice but to stand up. She playfully pinched Su Lets cheeks. “You little thing, I’m your aunt!”

Undeterred, Su Le crawled into Gu Zi’s embrace, hugging her tightly while ignoring Su Jing. “Mommy, mommy. Lele’s mommy.”

Su Jing, with a mixture of amusement and frustration, smiled through her tears. Gu Zi encouraged Su Jing to spend time with Su Le to strengthen their bond.

Su Shen and Gu Zi headed to the kitchen to prepare lunch. They made five dishes and a soup for Su Jing to enjoy.

Gu Zi could sense that Su Shen was delighted by Su Jing’s current state. Nonetheless, Su Shen’s demeanor remained composed and enigmatic, making it challenging to discern his emotions. It was no wonder that Su Jing sought affection elsewhere.

Human beings were creatures that yearned for emotional warmth. Unfortunately, if a person was not wealthy enough, seeking a relationship solely for material gain might lead to unfavorable consequences. Regrettably, many failed to grasp this principle.

Initially, Gu Zi had also been ignorant of this fact. Lacking the life experience of her previous incarnation, she might have fallen into the same misunderstanding as the original owner and Su Jing.

After lunch, Su Shen returned to the pig farm, and Su Jing departed for the city.

Gu Zi took a nap with Su Le.

In her free time that afternoon, she crafted two beautiful gift boxes from colorful cardboard and folded numerous paper stars to adorn them. Gu Zi displayed remarkable dexterity, swiftly producing two beautifully adorned starry gift boxes that sat neatly on the table.

After school, Su Bing and Su Li walked much faster than usual.

Upon reaching the bicycle shed, the siblings swiftly located their bikes and rode away.

Su Li was eager to catch up with his brother, but in his haste, he fell just outside the school gate, scraping his knee.

Despite the minor injury, he was excited about the gifts their mother would give them.

Su Li dusted himself off, picked up his bicycle, and continued his journey..
