Looking at Jiang Xiaoxiao’s big round eyes, Gu Yu was swearing in his heart. He didn’t expect Mother Jiang to tell Jiang Xiaoxiao, or maybe he forgot that Jiang Rongye had a sister. As Mother Gu did not specifically tell Gu Liang about this matter, he thought they would conceal it from all family members, but Mother Jiang actually told Jiang Xiaoxiao.

Seeing the other party’s inquiring look, Gu Yu turned away, not knowing how to answer.

Should he tell Jiang Xiaoxiao what he told to Gu Liang about he and Jiang Rongye are fake? Gu Yu knew that Gu Liang wouldn’t tell his mother, but he couldn’t be careless with Jiang Xiaoxiao. He couldn’t ignore women’s nature that likes to gossip. What if Jiang Xiaoxiao told Mother Jiang about this? Wouldn’t it ruin them?

Also…

Gu Yu glanced at Jiang Xiaoxiao, who was smiling at him. What’s wrong with her? She still could smile even though his brother is bent. Generally speaking, shouldn’t she be like facing an enemy? Jiang Xiaoxiao’s excited and eager look was abnormal.

“Then Brother Gu, should I call you sister-in-law from now on? Hahahahahahaha!” Jiang Xiaoxiao didn’t wait for a reply and directly accepted that her brother found her a ‘male sister-in-law’. Seeing that she was very excited, Gu Yu got goosebumps all over his body when he was called sister-in-law.

“I’m not your sister-in-law. It makes me feel nauseated.” Gu Yu stepped back a few steps away from Jiang Xiaoxiao. The other party was not annoyed and me forward with eyes sparkling.

“Rest assured, sister-in-law! Don’t worry! There is my mother, Aunt Gu, and I will help you!” She also made a v sign with her hand, “I thought you and my brother were a match. I didn’t expect you to really have an affair. It’s too unethical for you not to tell me, I misjudge you two!”

Gu Yu was stunned by her speech. He saw the look in Jiang Xiaoxiao’s eyes gradually became strange. Why does this girl behaving so weird? Is current society’s acceptance towards it this high? Could it be that he is out of date?

When Gu Yu was still thinking about whether he was abandoned by the society and shot dead on the beach, he was unaware that Jiang Xiaoxiao walked to his computer, holding the mouse in one hand and staring at the screen intently.

“Sister-in-law, you also read ‘Xutiji’*!”

*T/L Note : I’m not sure what is the right translation for this, and I suck at translating title or name. It is written as 虚体际 in raw, so if anyone knows what it means, please tell me at the comment!! Thank you!

“Sister-in-law, your sister! I wrote it.”

“Aiya, don’t be shy, sister-in-law. I am also following ‘Xutiji’. But why haven’t I read the chapter on your computer?”

“That’s what I was going to upload today. Of course, you haven’t read it. Stop calling me sister-in-law, I’m not your sister-in-law!!”

“…Eh? Wait… You wrote it?!! Fuck!! Brother Gu, you are the Remainder??!!!”

Jiang Xiaoxiao finally realized what Gu Yu said to her just now. Looking at Gu Yu with a dull face, she was so surprised that she didn’t address him as ‘sister-in-law’ but changed back to the former ‘Brother Gu’.

It’s no wonder that Jiang Xiaoxiao was so surprised. After all, “Xutiji”, his current serialized novel, is rising and popular on the Internet. Jiang Xiaoxiao has also started reading it after the completion of Gu Yu’s last book. She didn’t know that Gu Yu was the author, so when she first saw the novel on the computer, she thought she met a friend with the same taste. She never expected that Gu Yu wrote the popular web-novel “Xutiji”. In other words, Gu Yu is one of the great authors on the website-The Remainder.

Gu Yu never publicize the fact that he was ‘The Remainder’. Their families knew that he wrote the novel and published it, but they didn’t know exactly his pen name. It’s not surprising that Jiang Xiaoxiao didn’t know about it. After all, he and Jiang Xiaoxiao never talk about his work. In the past, most of their friendships were just fooling around. It’s the same as how Gu Yu knew that Jiang Rongye had started a company with others, but he didn’t know the scale and reputation. He didn’t even know the name of the company.

Under Gu Yu’s strong demand, Jiang Xiaoxiao finally stopped calling him the name that made Gu Yu get goosebumps all over. However, he didn’t know why she had to add a ‘little’ character in the middle and called him ‘Gu Xiaoge’ (Little older brother Gu). It sounded strange, but it was better than ‘sister-in-law’, not to mention he and Jiang Rongye were faking it. If Jiang Rongye or Xu Nan were to hear it later, it would be too embarrassing.

“Wait, sister-in-law, do you know Silent Night Thought?”

Gu Yu frowned when he heard Jiang Xiaoxiao’s address, and refuted, “Silent Night Thought is my neighbor, what’s the matter?” Then Gu Yu saw Jiang Xiaoxiao with a tangled expression on her face. Her beautifully drawn eyebrows were all wrinkled.

“So you are neighbors… Then isn’t my brother’s position dangerous?” Jiang Xiaoxiao looked tangled. Gu Yu couldn’t touch her head when he heard her words, and then she said, “I’m shipping Jingyu… I also drew with my fellow shipper… Jingyu is my destiny anyway …”

Gu Yu: “…”

Looking at Jiang Xiaoxiao’s worried look with her head down, Gu Yu finally understood.

It turned out that it was not that he was out of date, but Jiang Xiaoxiao was what people called Fujoshi on the Internet, so even though she was surprised that he and Jiang Rongye came out, there was no opposition or dissuasion. Rather, she was very excited about it.

Gu Yu looked at Jiang Xiaoxiao with a desperate look. Listening to her talking about Jingyu, her destiny, and what is CP, she was full of thoughts that this little girl unexpectedly paired him with that bitch Li Baishi!

“I don’t have anything to do with him! Don’t be close with that foolish group there, okay!” Gu Yu pulled the corner of his mouth to express his innocence to Jiang Xiaoxiao. He had long been annoyed by those messy fans that like to matched people on the Internet, but to think that Jiang Xiaoxiao was one of them. After hearing Gu Yu’s explanation, she was relieved at first and then looked sad again. In any case, it was the CP who she had been like for so long. Although she knew he had always been YY, she still felt quite lost when it was utterly denied by the person involved. Although that person is her brother’s partner, so he is her sister-in-law now.

Jiang Xiaoxiao took her mobile phone and started sending out her entanglements and problems on Weibo.

After uploading the story to the website, Gu Yu turned off the computer and was ready to go home. He had packed everything, but Jiang Xiaoxiao stopped him from leaving, asking why it’s not good to live in his boyfriend’s house and so on. Gu Yu refuted, but he realized that the other person was fluent in speech and his communication skill was completely invincible. Thus, he was dragged by her to accompany her to go shopping.

Gu Yu originally wanted to refuse, but this girl suddenly used a bitter trick and changed her face. She said with a sad face that she rarely visited them. They abandoned her like this when they rarely saw her and squeezed out two tears with great force. Gu Yu, who looked at her, almost thought how scumbag he was.

On the way to shopping, Gu Yu was pushed into a men’s clothing store by Jiang Xiaoxiao and was forced into the changing room to change his clothes. Gu Yu didn’t understand what Jiang Xiaoxiao was thinking, but fortunately he brought his card when he went out. Xiaoxiao originally wanted to pay for him, but Gu Yu is a conscientious person. Jiang Xiaoxiao can be regarded as his half-sister. How can he let his sister pay for his clothes?

Her vision is much better than that of Gu Yu. After changing from his original way of dressing like an otaku, with his handsome face, it can be regarded as a human found from a dog. After going out, Jiang Xiaoxiao smiled and grabbed his arm. She murmured that she had to look after her sister-in-law for her brother. Gu Yu frowned, silently retorted in his mind, your sister-in-law is someone else.

Gu Yu is not familiar with this side, but Jiang Xiaoxiao has been here many times. In the end, it was Jiang Xiaoxiao who took Gu Yu around. He didn’t go out often, and he was not familiar with the outside places. The big square with people came and went brought him the past in a daze. He hadn’t started staying at home at that time, and he often went out to play with friends.

Unknowingly, the two came under a tall building.

“Brother!!”

Jiang Xiaoxiao, who was beside him, suddenly yelled, surprising Gu Yu. When he looked up, he saw Jiang Rongye, who was standing not far away, looking over. The other person wore a straight suit, his appearance was meticulous, and his facial features were still handsome. He walked against the light, so orange light scattered on his side face. Looking from a distance, that appearance made Gu Yu’s little heart accelerated unconsciously.

“Why are you two here? Xiaoxiao, how come you’re here and not at school?” As he said that, he glanced at Gu Yu.

Jiang Xiaoxiao let go of Gu Yu’s arm and looked at her brother, frowning as if she was preaching to him. After she was done, she patted Jiang Rongye’s shoulder very seriously. “Brother, good job!”

“What?” Jiang Rongye didn’t understand what his sister, who always thinks about messy things, talked about.

“Find me a sister-in-law. You’re quick enough!”

While listening, Gu Yu twitched the corner of his mouth. He covered his face and didn’t know what to say. As a result, he saw Xu Nan running from behind and was dumbfounded. Are these two colleagues?

After some exchanges, he knew Xu Nan and Jiang Rongye were colleagues, but not at the same company. There was cooperation recently, and it happened that Xu Nan’s company sent him to talk about it. Under Jiang Rongye’s threat, Jiang Xiaoxiao finally said why she is suddenly not going to school. One was that she was annoyed to deal with her pursuers, and the other was that she seemed to have come to meet some friends.

Due to Jiang Xiaoxiao’s arrival, Jiang Rongye left early from the company and drove the two people back. When they got in the car, Jiang Xiaoxiao insisted on stuffing Gu Yu into the passenger seat. Gu Yu rolled his eyes and sat in, and then staring outside the window all the way. Jiang Xiaoxiao asked him one sentence, and he answered one sentence, clearly not wanting to talk with Jiang Rongye.

What happened yesterday hasn’t been settled yet!

Gu Yu returned to the room after arriving and was about to leave, but Jiang Xiaoxiao stopped him again.

“Leave after dinner. Why are you in such a hurry!”

Gu Yu looked at Jiang Xiaoxiao helplessly and had to compromise. However, he would leave after eating a meal. Then, Gu Yu went to the kitchen and cooked for the two siblings. Gu Yu, who was cutting the eggplant, regarded the eggplant as Jiang Rongye and gripped it fiercely. With each cut, he was filled with joy. Jiang Rongye, who was talking to his sister outside, suddenly felt someplace tightened for an unknown reason.

During the meal, Gu Yu pinched his chopsticks listening to Jiang Xiaoxiao talking about understanding in every bite, and almost threw his chopsticks and left. When he finished eating and was about to leave, Gu Yu was stopped by Jiang Xiaoxiao for the third time today.

“There are only two rooms here!” The implication was that there is no place to sleep if he stayed for the night.

“Isn’t it just right? One room for me, and one room for you and my brother! It’s just right!”

“…” ‘Just right’ your sister! Thinking of waking up in the morning and seeing Jiang Rongye inexplicably, he didn’t feel right. He couldn’t endure it if he had to stay tonight.

Gu Yu insisted on going back, and Jiang Xiaoxiao was also at her wit’s end. Finally, Jiang Rongye, who was silent the whole time, offered to send him off. Gu Yu glanced at the man. He didn’t speak and went out with his backpack.

Speaking of it, since he saw Jiang Rongye outside, this person didn’t take the initiative to say a word to him. Up to now, Jiang Xiaoxiao was the one that tried to talk to them, and Gu Yu was in the mood to speak with Jiang Rongye. He still remembered the bathroom incident last night and Xu Nan’s misunderstanding in the morning. But he didn’t see any different expressions when he saw Xu Nan in the afternoon. It should’ve been explained to Xu Nan clearly.

If Gu Yu didn’t say a word, he could help Jiang Rongye come out, but it didn’t mean he could replace Xu Nan. He likes Jiang Rongye, and he may be cheap in this matter, but he is not a shameless fool. If someone doen’t like him and treats him as a substitute, he wouldn’t be willing to keep abused himself.

Why does he like this person? Gu Yu depressedly thought.

T/N : I’m so sorry for the very late update! I was so busy with school that I forgot to continue translating new chapters. I’ll try to compensate for it these days by uploading chapters as much as I can. Thank you for everyone that was waiting after all this time!
