Chapter 12: Gu Family Members; Discovering Destiny Taken

"Gu Family? Where?" Tang Yichen followed Lu Haichuan's gaze.

In the midst of their conversation, the three of them had already arrived at the hospital's first-floor lobby.

The direction in which Lu Haichuan was looking was precisely the payment counter in the first-floor lobby.

"The payment counter, the one you can see at a glance."

The Gu family had good genes; as far as Lu Haichuan knew, from the grandparents' generation, there had never been an unattractive one.

In this generation, each was better-looking than the last, especially Gu Zhiqi, who was famously beautiful in Haicheng... oh, forgot, Gu Zhiqi was no longer a member of the Gu Family.

"The Gu Family? Gu Xiaoxi's family... her former family members?"

"Yeah, Gu Huaijin, the eldest son of the Gu's second branch." After all, the Gu Family was a prominent household in Haicheng, so Lu Haichuan knew a bit about them.

"What a coincidence?" Tang Yichen lifted his hand and stroked his chin, "Then... isn't it very easy for her to run into Gu Xiaoxi?"

Thinking of this, Tang Yichen actually felt somewhat expectant.

"Who's that woman beside him?" Seeing Gu Huaijin turn his head to speak with a woman, Tang Yichen asked again.

It was only then that Lu Haichuan noticed a woman standing beside Gu Huaijin.

The woman was plainly dressed, with ordinary attire, a yellowish complexion, but her features were quite delicate.

"Not sure, probably a nanny or something."

Although, she didn't quite look the part based on her clothes.

Upon hearing this, Tang Yichen didn't ask further; the three continued walking out of the hospital. As they walked out, through the glass door, Tang Yichen saw Gu Huaijin handing something to the woman.

It looked like, a card?

Ward 107.

The washroom.

Gu Zhiqi stood in front of the washbasin, staring at the mirror embedded above it for quite a while, a hint of playfulness in her eyes.

From the memories of her original self, she knew that this face looked a lot like her own.

Now, looking closely, it indeed shared a resemblance of about sixty percent.

But what was interesting was that this face shouldn't look like this.

Previously, from the memories, Gu Zhiqi hadn't noticed anything amiss, but now she could clearly see the problem through the mirror.

The original owner's facial features were strange, a sign of appearance change caused by destiny being siphoned away.

After carefully sorting through the original owner's memories, she found no useful information.

She couldn't determine when exactly the original owner's destiny had started being siphoned away, but she did uncover that the original owner had experienced memory loss two years ago.

So, now, she only had the memories of the original owner from the past two years.

The original owner's destiny had been siphoned away at least since two years ago.

"Gu Zhiqi?" Suddenly a voice rang by her ear.

It sounded familiar, like Tang Yun's voice.

Opening the door of the washroom, she saw an additional person in the ward, "Is there something else?"

Gu Zhiqi leaned lazily against the door of the washroom, looking at Tang Yun with a touch of inquiry in her languid eyes.

Seeing Gu Zhiqi, Tang Yun couldn't help but think of the morning's events and felt somewhat intimidated.

She gently clasped the hem of her clothes in front of her and started to speak reluctantly, "Your mother refuses to take care of you, so you'll return with me."

The Gu Family had come to her in person, leaving her no choice but to take care of Gu Zhiqi.

However, thankfully, it wouldn't be for free.

Hearing this, Gu Zhiqi raised an eyebrow.

She didn't quite understand why Tang Yun had suddenly changed her mind.

"I've taken care of your discharge procedures, so pack up and come back with me to Yueqi Village, the train is at nine tonight," said Tang Yun, without looking at Gu Zhiqi again but instead started to clean up the bedding on the hospital bed with her back to her.

Gu Zhiqi was silent for a moment.

A few seconds later, she pulled out the clothes she wore yesterday and went to the washroom to change.

Yueqi Village?

In the novel, Yueqi Village was a remarkable place with outstanding people and a beautiful environment.

It would be a pity not to use it for retirement.
