"Hey, mom."
"Zixi, do you still have any extra money now?"
"Where did I get the money from? Didn't I give all my money to you guys?"
"Sigh, your younger brother again..."
"What trouble has he caused again?!"
"He got into a fight and blinded someone in one eye. They're asking for 300,000 for medical expenses."
"I have no money."
"Our family is poor, have you forgotten how you grew up when you were young..."
Even though I was very determined to get into key universities and then found a good job after graduation, I still can't escape the burden of my dysfunctional family. My biased parents and troublemaking younger brother are a pain I can never shake off.
["Enough said, this is the last time. I will send you the money as soon as possible."]
"Good good...
Blood is thicker than water, soft-hearted, valuing family ties, and loyal. These are all the shackles I've bound myself with, can't blame others."
I found a note left by Gu Mujin in my bag, and then I found a new evening gown in the wardrobe. Since he wants to see me, I'll just go.

Gu Mujin said he sent a driver to pick me up, but it was actually Gou Shangxian.
I dressed up to look like a socialite.
[Oh, it seems you still can't forget Gu Mujin, why did you block him back then?]
"Hmph, do we really need to report to you about anything?"
I snorted coldly, showing no favor to this sycophantic dog.
"Put on a show, I've seen plenty of your type trying to climb the social ladder, Pseudoprincess, acting all high and mighty."
"Yeah, I do want to climb the social ladder, it's better than being someone's lapdog."
"Who are you calling a dog? If it weren't for the fact that you're a woman, I would have punched you already, believe it or not."
"I believe you, of course I believe you. After all, how could I forget being bitten by a dog?"
I lifted the hair at my temple, revealing the scar on my forehead from years ago.
Gou Shangxian pursed his lips and fell silent.
I look at the bustling city night scene outside the car window, where every light represents a desire.
My evening gown shines in the night, and I have become the person I used to hate the most.
【Zixi, you're here.】
After the car came to a stop, Gu Mujin opened the car door for me.
He looked smart and handsome in a high-end suit, despite not having seen him for many years, he still had such charm.
After taking a seat, a series of exquisite dishes were presented before me one after another.
【How is it, Zixi, do you like it?】
This was the question Gu Mujin asked me the most at that time.
About two hours later, the last dessert was taken off the table, and Gu Mujin poured me a glass of red wine.
【Zixi, I'm sorry. No matter where I hurt you before, I sincerely ask for your forgiveness now.】
I didn't want to listen to him, but when I thought about how desperately I needed that damn 300,000, I could only take a sip of red wine and try to gradually lower my own posture.
[Gu Mujin, that night in the study room, I heard you talking to Bai Keqing, and I can't understand why you would treat me like this. ]
"Sure enough, you found out. But don't worry, I have no more contact with Bai Keqing, I swear."
"Are you willing to start over with me? I can compensate you with whatever you want."
I remained silent and raised my glass with Gu Mujin. We each took a sip of the wine, then almost simultaneously spoke: "I want three hundred thousand."
"Will you marry me?"
What?！

"What nonsense are you talking about? Are you trying to fool me again?"
"I'm serious."
Gu Mujin said, then took out a diamond ring from his pocket and knelt down on one knee.
