Destiny Koi, I'm cheating after rebirth

For some reason today he took the less traveled side. As he was hurrying down the mountain, he vaguely heard someone calling for help. He remembered that there seemed to be an abandoned trap in that direction. Could someone have accidentally fallen in?

As he approached, he heard a familiar voice. No way, the little girl from the Gu family wouldn't run up the mountain, would she? Thinking of this, he quickened his pace, and then he saw a scene that frightened him. A young lady was sitting in the middle of several spikes, crying pitifully. Who else could that pretty girl be but Gu Qingzhi?

Hearing the voice, the young lady raised her head and called out "Brother Gu Yan" with tears in her eyes. She looked so pitiful that Gu Yan's heart couldn't help but soften.

Perhaps she was too scared and she fainted.

Now, Gu Yan became anxious.

He looked around anxiously and found a big tree nearby with a large patch of vines entangled around it.

So he took a few quick steps forward and pulled down a few vines. He weighed them and found they were quite long, enough to put into the trap.

He quickly flipped his hands and in a few seconds he had woven a thick rope. He tied one end to a big tree and set a trap along the other end of the rope.

When he took great pains to carry Gu Qingzhi out of the trap, she was still not awake. He became even more anxious and ran down the mountain with her on his back. He ran so fast that he fell several times. In order to protect the little girl on his back, he didn't even notice that his feet were cut by branches and bleeding.

He didn't think too much at that time. He just wanted to carry her back home to see a doctor. Who knew that he did carry her back, but was locked in the woodshed before he could say a word.

He also vaguely heard words like "jinx" and "disaster".

The hand that was about to knock on the door to explain moved, but finally drooped down. Forget it, he turned around and sat down on the firewood pile, only to find that his heel was aching. He lifted up his torn trouser leg and saw several bloody wounds from his heel to his calf, deep enough to see the bone.

It looks very scary.

But the boy seemed not to see the wounds, and even thought with some pleasure, "It hurts, it hurts, only by experiencing severe pain can I wake up."

Otherwise, how could he have saved the person on impulse? Wasn't the lesson from the drowning a few years ago enough?

Gu Yan bent his knees and hugged them, thinking absentmindedly.

After Dad passed away five years ago, Mom disappeared soon after, leaving the three siblings to depend on each other. But at least they had their grandparents to take care of them and their second uncle to help them from time to time.

But after his grandfather passed away three years ago, the sayings of "jinx" and "unlucky star" have been firmly attached to him since then. Second aunt dislikes him even more, and Second uncle can only do it secretly if he wants to help. The two cousins ​​are also controlled by Second aunt and are not allowed to get close to him.

The most outrageous thing is the little princess of the Gu family. Even if she falls on the road, as long as he is nearby, it can be related to him.

This time she fell into a trap and got hurt, how could they let him go so easily! He thought to himself with self-mockery.

Haven't you gotten used to it? The boy buried his head between his knees, his tender brows stained with deep fatigue and weakness, and his dark eyes were gray.

It’s not that I haven’t fought, but what can I do?

In order to make his younger brother and sister feel better, he silently swallowed the pain.

He didn't know how much time had passed, but it seemed like not much time had passed when the door of the woodshed opened and his second aunt actually spoke to him for the first time. He thought he was hallucinating until she repeated it impatiently. Then he realized that she asked him to go back into the house and said that she had asked Doctor Li to check his wound.

Gu Yan returned to his room in a daze, still somewhat unable to believe it.

Doctor Li came to his house not long after. He carefully examined his wound, cleaned it, and applied medicine on it. He also told him not to go out for the next few days and to wait until his wound healed before going out, otherwise he might suffer from sequelae that would make him incapable of walking.

Even when he was lying on the bed, Gu Yan still felt like he was dreaming. This time, he was not beaten or scolded, nor was he fasted? He was just locked up in a woodshed and a doctor was called in to treat his injuries? He suddenly felt like he had a beautiful dream. If this was a dream, then let him stay in the dream and don't wake up...

Gu Yan seemed to hear a knock on the door while he was in a trance, and then a familiar voice came again, "Brother Gu Yan, Brother Gu Yan, I'm coming in."

Then the door creaked open, and cheerful and light footsteps came closer and closer. He felt as if there was someone standing beside the bed. He opened his heavy eyelids and saw a blurry small figure. It looked very familiar. His drowsy mind was blankly thinking, who is it?

Jiaojiao's soft voice was close at hand, "Brother Gu Yan, are you feeling better? I brought you some steamed buns and porridge. You must be hungry, so fill your stomach first."

The figure beside the bed whispered to himself. Seeing that the person on the bed didn't seem to react or get annoyed, he continued to chatter, "I'll put the things here first. You can use them as a cushion when you wake up. Mother has prepared a sumptuous dinner. I'll call you when it's time for dinner."

As she spoke, she gently placed the tray in her hand on the low cabinet beside the bed, then moved closer to take a closer look at Gu Yan's face, and then at his wounds that had obviously been treated, she breathed a sigh of relief. In this way, Brother Gu Yan should have survived this catastrophe, right?

From now on, he probably won't be bothered by foot injuries for more than ten years.

The footsteps gradually faded away.

Gu Yan only felt a faint fragrance coming from the tip of his nose, which then faded away after a moment.

He opened his eyes with difficulty, turned his head to look in the direction where the fragrance left, and saw a familiar figure looming in the distance.

With the creaking of the door, the room fell silent again.

Gu Yan turned around and found that there was indeed a wooden tray on the low cabinet beside the bed. On the plate were a bowl of porridge and two white steamed buns, which were emitting a faint wheat aroma. Someone really had been here just now. Was this not a dream?

Only then did I feel how hungry I was.

When he went out in the morning, he took two multi-grain steamed buns with him. These were all he ate in a day. For a boy like him who was still growing up, it was far from enough. Moreover, after calculating the time, he estimated that it was already the afternoon.

Gu Yan supported himself with his hands and slowly sat up, leaning against the head of the bed. He reached out and picked up a steamed bun and chewed it slowly. He thought about the soft and familiar voice he had just heard. It seemed like the voice of the little princess of the Gu family?

But, didn't she usually feel disgusted even by looking at him? Why did she still care about him today, send him food specially, and call him "Brother Gu Yan" all the time?

The sun rises from the west, or is he still dreaming?

After eating two big steamed buns and a bowl of white porridge, he felt unprecedentedly satisfied.

He had never eaten such soft and delicious white flour buns since his father-in-law passed away.
