After much persuasion, they finally managed to convince Eldest Gu and Fourth Brother Gu.

After Gu Hui helped Gu Xin wipe Cai Xiaolian and her daughter’s foreheads and applied the medicine, everyone in the old house went back.

Gu Xin timidly tugged at the corner of Gu Shouxin’s shirt and whispered, “Dad, I heard it just now.”

“Huh?”

Gu Shouxin was stunned for a moment.

“Father said that he won’t gamble anymore in the future.”

Gu Xin felt that she was getting bolder and bolder. She actually dared to say that he wouldn’t gamble with her irascible gambler father.

“About that! Hmm, after this matter is settled, Father won’t gamble anymore. Father promised Second hmm, Father promised Xin Xin.”

Gu Shouxin originally wanted to say ‘Second daughter’, but after being a gambler for so many years, he really couldn’t bear to call his daughters first and second.

He felt uncomfortable calling her a ‘second’.

Wasn’t it good to call her by her name?

“Xin Xin?”

Like a frightened little chick, Gu Xin shrunk her neck.

Xin Xin… It sounded so nice.

She knew that her name was Gu Xin, but no one had ever called her Gu Xin or Xin Xin.

It was all ‘second’.

She liked it when her father called her that.

Cai Xiaolian was already awake. She heard the conversation between the two people in the room and compared it to the man in her memories.

Damn, why did this irresponsible dog man seem to have changed into a different person? Could it be that he had also transmigrated?

No, no, no. She could not give herself away. She had to first see what was going on with this dog man.

“En, Xin Xin, you stay here and look after your mother. After a while, you go and see your sister. I’ll go to the kitchen to cook.”

Gu Shouxin looked at his little daughter’s appearance and his heart instantly warmed.

Other than her appearance, she was very much like the daughter he had imagined!

It didn’t matter. His daughter was young and could still be taught. She could be well-fed in the future. She would definitely become the daughter he had imagined.

“Okay, Dad.”

Gu Xin nodded in a daze.

She had never seen her father cook, but she really wanted to eat her father’s cooking.

Gu Shouxin turned to look at Cai Xiaolian, who was still lying on the bed with her eyes closed. He smiled and went out to the kitchen to cook.

Gu Xin ran over and squatted by the bed, she said in a low voice, “Mother, Mother, Father is going to cook for us. Mother, Father isn’t lazy anymore. Mother, Father calls me Xin Xin. Mother, can you call me Xin Xin in the future and smile at me a few more times? It doesn’t matter if you hit me or scold me. Mother, I’m so happy! Mother, Father said that he would never gamble again…”

Cai Xiaolian closed her eyes, feeling a little sad.

This little girl was very pitiful. In the original owner’s memories, this little girl often did not have enough to eat and did a lot of work. She was ignored by her biological father and sister, and scolded by her biological mother. She always looked very cautious.

But listen to this, this girl’s voice was so pleasant to hear. It was so sweet that it reached one’s heart.

When her father cooked a meal for her and her mother smiled at her, she was as happy as a fool.

What a sin!

Cai Xiaolian decided to treat this little girl well in the future. She would let her grow into a normal girl, cheerful and positive.

“Xin Xin.”

Cai Xiaolian opened her eyes and smiled.

Gu Xin was shocked. She thought her mother would wake up in a while.

She was squatting, but she sat down on the ground.

“Oh, I scared you! Get up, it’s cold on the ground! The weather is so cold!”

Cai Xiaolian didn’t expect her sudden awakening to scare the child. She quickly got up and helped the child up.
