Chapter 17: Brother Combing Her Hair

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The sound of footsteps was heard. Gu Yu ran up, panting.

Gu Su’s face immediately changed. “Didn’t I ask you to take care of your sister? Where did you run off to?”

Gu Yu swallowed hard and did not dare to explain. “I’m sorry, Big Brother. I was wrong.”

Zhizhi looked at her insufferably venomous-tongued Youngest Elder Brother in shock. He actually knew how to apologize? He actually did not get angry and actually knew how to speak properly!

Gu Su’s expression softened when he saw his brother admit his mistake. He glared at him and said, “Get Sister Qi, who’s always by mother’s side, to take care of Zhizhi. Her servant is not up to standard, so I just fired her.”

“Oh.” Gu Yu quickly agreed and ran off.

Gu Su touched Zhizhi’s bare feet and carried her back to the room. He placed her on the bed and covered her with a blanket. “I’ll get someone to help you put on your clothes later.”

Zhizhi shook her head and nimbly jumped down from the bed. “Big Brother, I can put on my own clothes.”

She opened the wardrobe and looked up, but she was in a dilemma. Which one should she wear?

Gu Su chuckled and handed her a set of beige sports clothes. “Wear this. It should look good.”

Zhizhi took it and looked at it. Then, she looked at her brother’s clothes. They were of the same color scheme. She smiled. “Alright!”

She quickly ran to the bathroom to change her clothes.

By the time Sister Qi came in, Zhizhi had already dressed up and walked out of the bathroom.

Gu Su raised his eyebrows.

“Miss, you’re wearing it yourself?” Sister Qi asked in surprise.

Zhizhi nodded and thought to herself, ‘Is this a difficult task?’

“Sister Qi,” Gu Su said, “pick someone capable to take care of Zhizhi. She’s still too young. She can’t be on her own.”

Sister Qi quickly nodded. “Yes, First Young Master. I’ll go and get the Butler to choose someone.”

After Sister Qi left, Gu Su sat on the chair in front of the dressing table and waved at Zhizhi. “Come here and comb your hair.”

Zhizhi obediently walked over and whispered, “I can do it myself.”

Gu Su did not give her the comb, but let her stand in front of him. They were both facing the mirror. Gu Su asked while combing her hair, “Zhizhi is so capable. Did your sister teach you that?”

Zhizhi looked at Gu Su in the mirror, pursed her lips, and said softly, “Yes, Sister said that I’ve grown up and I need to be able to take care of myself.”

The corners of Gu Su’s lips lifted slightly, and it was hard to tell if he was smiling or not. “Does Big Sister treat you well?”

“Yes!” Zhizhi hurriedly nodded.

This nod tugged at her hair, “Aiyo –”

Gu Su rubbed her head and smiled at her in the mirror, “I’m friends with Qin Huai. She was going to send you home, but something happened and I couldn’t contact her. Sigh…”

Gu Su sighed softly, “I never thought that she would…”

Zhizhi’s tears immediately gushed out. This was the first time someone had asked about her sister since she returned home.

She turned around and looked at Gu Su with tears in her eyes. “Sister is very, very sick. She said that when she recovers, she will bring me home. It will be my home. She said that she is not my biological sister, but she will be my sister for the rest of my life.”

Zhizhi’s big eyes blinked, and tears immediately fell out of control.

However, she was very patient and did not cry out loud. This made people feel even more pitiful. Gu Su carried Zhizhi onto her lap and gently patted her, “Be good, Zhizhi. Don’t cry, don’t cry.”

Zhizhi cried for a while and stopped crying. She said to Gu Su, “Sister said that she’ll be the first star that appears every night. She’ll always look at me. If I’m sad, she’ll be sad too. So, I have to always be happy.”

Zhizhi’s tears fell again, and she reached out to wipe them.

Gu Su’s heart ached. He took out a tissue and wiped her tears. “Big Sister is right. Our Zhizhi is a good child, an especially obedient child.”

Zhizhi nodded heavily.

Gu Su put her down and continued to comb her hair. He asked, “Did Zhizhi live alone in Peppermint Alley after Sister left?”

Zhizhi looked at Gu Su. He was not looking at her, so she said softly, “Yes, Sister asked the uncles and aunties in Peppermint Lane to take care of me. She said that I would repay them when I grew up. Big brother, when I grew up, I have to repay them!”

Gu Su smiled and patted her head. “Yes, they are Zhizhi’s benefactors. They are the benefactors of the Gu family. You don’t have to wait until Zhizhi grows up to repay them. I will definitely repay them on your behalf!”

“I’ll repay you when I grow up, Big Brother!” Zhizhi nodded.
