After living on a desert island, they all plotted evil against me.

This is what her mother said when she was still ignorant.

And clearly stated.

If it happens, then they will be unhappy.

Section 29 # Volume [-] A stable food source is the first step in development: Chapter [-] A spring that is pressed to the end will collapse sooner or later.

It wasn't just Gu Qingrou who was unhappy.

But Gu Qingrou and her mother, whom she relied on most at the time, would both be unhappy.

This made Gu Qingrou, who was only seven years old, extremely scared.

From then on, she dared not approach any boy for fear of touching him and making her mother unhappy.

It wasn't until her aunt came for the first time when she was 14 that Gu's mother began to have new gender education.

Even some under-the-bed knowledge like "how to serve your future husband" began to be crammed into her like a duck.

It’s not the kind of joking education that Anya’s mother wears a hula skirt and belly dances.

In Gu's mother's education, Gu Qingrou needed to sacrifice her own happiness in some aspects to make her husband happy.

Staying clean before marriage and not letting any man touch your private parts is a top priority in education.

That night, Gu Qingrou was so weak due to gastroenteritis that she could only ask Zhang Liu to help wipe it.

The "clean" belief she had always adhered to was physically tortured to the point of collapse.

That's why Gu Qingrou had the desperate thought the next day that "no one wants her, only Zhang Liu".

Later, he was slowly soothed by Zhang Liu's gentleness.

But now, she is actively violating her mother's words.

It’s not the previous behavior of secretly registering an online name to write novels, draw comics, and read love stories that are not allowed at home.

Instead, speak directly and use body language to start violating!

Gu Qingrou is doing this now because of two reasons.

First, in Gu Qingrou's mind, Zhang Liu has become the perfect male protagonist who appears whenever the woman encounters difficulties in those love stories.

She has been suffocated by the rules at home since she was a child, like a spring that will rebound when pushed to the limit.

Originally, in order to continue to suppress this spring, Gu's mother placed a maid who had been brainwashed since childhood beside Gu Qingrou, and forcibly turned her into a flight attendant who was traveling with her on the plane.

But now, this maid with the function of a suppressor has died in the plane crash.

The spring that hit the bottom has begun to rebound slowly under the last pressure of "the clean body disappears".

The second point is that Gu Qingrou, who has already doubted her mother's words, wants to confirm one thing.

If you do this, will you really be unhappy?

At this moment, he kept gargling liquid in his mouth.

When she did something illegal, she only had the shyness of a girl and the joy of being shy, without any feeling of unhappiness.

So... maybe the mother was wrong?

Gu Qingrou suddenly had such an idea in her heart.

After rinsing her mouth, she used the tip of her tongue to feel the refreshing feeling that her teeth had not experienced for a long time. She looked at Zhang Liu who was putting thick wood into the fire next to her.

"Well... we have to take turns sleeping tonight." Zhang Liu did not feel the emotional changes of the girls around him. He coughed slightly and then said: "I forgot to ask for your opinion just now..."

Embarrassingly enough, he was so busy that he forgot to ask Gu Qingrou.

I don’t know if the other person is willing to sleep in the same place as me.

Zhang Liu's plan was that Gu Qingrou would keep watch while he slept.

Then when the other person really wants to sleep, he wakes himself up to keep watch and replace him.

"Well, you don't need to ask my opinion about sleeping together."

While watching Zhang Liu build a shelter.

Gu Qingrou didn't realize that she could take turns sleeping with him.

I just subconsciously decided that two people would have to squeeze in tonight.

So as soon as Zhang Liu opened his mouth, she immediately agreed.

Immediately, Gu Qingrou also realized the order of Zhang Liu's words.

What the other party said seemed to be...

Taking turns sleeping?

After directly agreeing, her face turned red instantly.

Zhang Liu was a little confused by Gu Qingrou's answer.

At the same time, he subconsciously turned his head to look at the shelter he had built.

The entrance of this shelter is about one meter long, which is enough for two people to lie down without physical contact. However, it is getting narrower and narrower at the back, so the two people may need to touch their feet together.

"Zhang Liu." Putting away other distracting thoughts in her heart, Gu Qingrou looked at the boy in front of her and said softly: "I hope you don't treat me as an ordinary girl!"

"Ah?" Zhang Liu was confused by Gu Qingrou's words for a moment.

What does it mean to hope that you don't treat the other person as an ordinary girl.

Also, did the other party agree to two people sleeping together just now?

"I hope you will treat me as...a female best friend." Gu Qingrou wanted to say the word "girlfriend", but in the end she replaced it with female best friend.

Then she continued: "It's just a level of contact like sleeping together, and I don't have any objection at all!"

The last sentence was the true words that Gu Qingrou wanted to express.

After she finished speaking, she gasped and stopped making any further remarks.

Zhang Liu was stunned on the spot.

He even couldn't figure out what Gu Qingrou wanted to explain now.

After a long silence, Zhang Liu cleared his throat and said, "Well, don't say anything else. To avoid embarrassment, you should go to sleep first."

He decided to spend the night next to the fire.

But right now, the two people's topics are obviously not on the same topic.

"You should go first, so as to avoid embarrassment." Gu Qingrou said decisively: "Otherwise, when you lie down behind me, you will touch my chest!"

The spring that began to rebound was full of aggression at this moment.

"I still have to keep vigil!" Zhang Liu's tone was quite embarrassing, and then he said: "Also, you must have misunderstood me just now. I wanted to say that we slept separately, but now, I will I won’t go in, after all, there are differences between men and women.”

Seeing Gu Qingrou's suddenly sad expression, he continued to add: "I remember that when I was in school, the maid sister named Gu Xixi told me in advance that you must marry cleanly in the future. You cannot Physical contact with other boys!”

"Zhang Liu, can you please stop talking about this?" Gu Qingrou was silent for a few seconds, and then said, "I want to chat with you."

Zhang Liu stopped talking about continuing to persuade, and said, "Um, what's wrong?"

"If possible, I want to live my true self, so can you help me?" Looking at the boy in front of her, Gu Qingrou mustered up the courage to say, "Please!"

"Huh?" Zhang Liu looked at the girl in front of him, and then he didn't make any promises or rejections, but asked: "Can you tell me what's going on with you?"

"Do you still remember what I suddenly wanted to hold you responsible for?" Gu Qingrou sat next to the fire, and then said miserably: "That's because my mother told me..."

Section 30 # Volume [-] A stable food source is the first step in development: Chapter [-] The troubles of the rich and the despair of the poor.

The moon slowly slid from the edge of the sky to the center of the sky.

Zhang Liu had already put several pieces of wood into the fire to stabilize the fire.

And Gu Qingrou's last words of complaint were finally finished.

He silently looked at the girl next to him who was saying from beginning to end that her family kept forcing her but she couldn't resist, and then asked: "Classmate Gu Qingrou, do you mind if I express my opinion?"

After hearing Zhang Liu's words, Gu Qingrou nodded immediately, and then she couldn't help but yawn.

After this narration, Gu Qingrou already felt a little sleepy.

Sighing slightly, Zhang Liu felt very complicated at the moment.

Then he said slowly: "Although you have been treated like this by your family since you were a child, as if they were oppressing you, it is undeniable that the conditions given to you by your family are extremely generous. Even for an ordinary person like me, in this life You can’t even enjoy it.”

As he said this, Zhang Liu couldn't help but smile bitterly.

The joys and sorrows between people are not connected.

He never expected that Gu Qingrou would regard things like "her mother wouldn't give her another bite of vegetables and forced her to eat fish liver" as oppression at home.

Zhang Liu remembered that after his mother passed away, his family had no money to buy groceries. He found a one-dollar coin that had been dropped in a corner, and then shamelessly went to buy a dollar of pork.

As for vegetables, during the most difficult times, he always stole them from the fields in villages in the city or picked them up at wet markets dozens of kilometers away.

Zhang Liu would not dare to feed his sisters anything that came from graveyards or crossroads. Eating too much of it would probably deduct merit.

It doesn't matter whether he is a human being or not in his next life.

But Zhang Liu still hopes that the two sisters, who failed to be reincarnated in their previous lives, will be reborn well in their next lives.

As for face, it was not worth mentioning at all for him who desperately wanted to make his two sisters live a comfortable life.

If several neighbors hadn't started talking directly about their dislike, Zhang Liu wouldn't have minded eating a meal and packing it up to take home.

In fact, he somewhat understood this after arriving at the aristocratic girls' school.

The expensive Wagyu beef sold outside by the gram has become Zhang Liu's dream meat. He has only seen it in short videos, and then fantasized about its taste that "melts in the mouth, just like lard."

But in the girls' school lunch, the Wagyu beef that Anjia provides by the ton every month is completely ordinary and is considered too greasy in taste.

On the contrary, some dishes that have been transformed into magical dishes through the chef's methods will be recognized by the eldest ladies of these wealthy families.

For example, there is a stir-fried vegetable dish in which all the outer leaves of fresh green vegetables are removed, leaving only a little bit of the heart and chicken breast.

He just thought it was delicious, but these young ladies lamented that the taste of vegetables irrigated with skimmed milk was different...

"Classmate Gu Qingrou, regarding what you just said, I will still pretend that I didn't hear it." Zhang Liu cleared his throat and said, "Go to bed first. I'm very happy that you are willing to tell me this. It means that your body has recovered a lot, and the journey will take longer tomorrow, so you need to maintain your energy."

Gu Qingrou blinked.

As a girl, she could tell that some of the words spoken by the boys in front of her were sincere and some were perfunctory.

Just can't tell.

Thinking of Anya and his sister who Zhang Liu often talked about.

There is nothing we can do about the former, but the latter...

Thinking of this, Gu Qingrou's heart skipped a beat, and she simply shouted: "Brother!"

After shouting, Gu Qingrou's little heart was beating non-stop.

She never imagined that she would do such a bold thing!

Call someone brother!

Zhang Liu, who was lowering his head to prepare the fire, jumped up and looked around like a nervous reflex. Then he realized that Gu Qingrou was talking next to him.

"Uh? Are you, classmate Gu Qingrou?" Zhang Liu was at a loss for a moment.

"From now on, I will be your sister and call you brother every day, and then you have to protect me!" Gu Qingrou said "brother" sharply as she spoke.

At the same time, there was a naughty smile on the corner of his mouth.

This was the first time in her life that she interacted with a boy like this.

This behavior of thinking that they had grasped the opponent's lifeline also made Gu Qingrou, who was rebounding from the bottom, a little complacent.

"Stop shouting, you brother makes me scared!" Zhang Liu frowned, showing dissatisfaction to a girl for the first time, and then said with a straight face: "Classmate Gu Qingrou, there are limits to joking! "

Seeing Zhang Liu's angry expression, the smile on Gu Qingrou's face gradually disappeared, and her eyes became silently sad.

Silent for a long time.

In the end, she just bit her lower lip and silently slipped into the shelter.

There was no more sound.
