"Okay, then you’ll help out at the Imperial Group in the future." Gu Beicheng lowered his gaze to look at the girl beneath him.
He ntioned the Imperial Group, not the Hengshi Costics Group, because he didn’t intend to let her stay in Yaoshan for long.
"I an, after I’ve acquired so skills, not now," Xia Yinian corrected.
"I don’t want to rely on others, nor do I want to take shortcuts. I’m only in the first year of college, and I have four more years to go."
"If I do well in this Alchemy Competition, I can earn money with my own abilities."
"By then, I can support my own studies like Yuan Yaying and help the kids at the orphanage."
The girl blinked as if envisioning her future.
"Uncle, what do you think of this plan?"
"Not good." Gu Beicheng’s thin lips moved slightly.
Hearing that she had no place for him in her future, he felt uneasy.
The little girl’s thoughts were too simple because she didn’t know her own identity.
If one day her identity is revealed to the world, living a peaceful life might beco difficult for her.
Xia Yinian t Gu Beicheng’s gaze and frowned slightly.
"Why not? If I’m not capable, I won’t go to the Imperial Group. Uncle, don’t worry."
Perhaps she was a little overconfident now, but even if she didn’t succeed this ti, she could try again in three years.
No matter what, she wouldn’t give up.
Alchemy might be a path she would walk for a lifeti.
Gu Beicheng’s eyes narrowed, and he picked up the girl, turning around to sit with her on the sofa.
Xia Yinian looked down at where the two of them were pressed together, and her face turned from white to red to black in an instant.
"Uncle, let go of !"
He had actually let her straddle his legs, this... how could he?
"I’d advise you not to move. My body is particularly sensitive to you!" Gu Beicheng frowned, tightened his long arms, and held the girl in his arms.
"I... I just want to have a good chat with Nian Nian for now. If you have other thoughts, you can tell right away."
"You know well, that whenever possible, I’ll satisfy you, right?"
The man’s gaze was wicked, and only Xia Yinian knew how much.
Four eyes t, and in an instant, the girl who was being held quieted down.
She didn’t want him to satisfy her. Didn’t she just say that she didn’t want this kind of thing right now?
Xia Yinian pouted slightly and shifted her gaze.
Gu Beicheng took the opportunity to tuck her head into his embrace.
"If I’m not mistaken, Nian Nian isn’t part of the Xia Family. Haven’t you thought about finding your biological parents?"
"How did you know?" Xia Yinian broke free from his grasp and looked up at Gu Beicheng.
But she quickly realized that it wasn’t hard for Uncle to find out.
"Uncle wants to help find my biological parents?" Xia Yinian’s eyes widened.
Finding them was sothing she definitely wanted, no matter why they had abandoned her, she dread of eting them.
At the very least, she’d like to know how they’re doing now.
It was for this reason that Xia Yinian wanted to beco stronger; once she had money, she could do many things, including finding her biological parents.
"No." Gu Beicheng said calmly.
Once again, he pressed her head into his embrace, leaned back on the sofa, and closed his eyes.
"Stay with for a nap."
The life she wanted, he could give her, so why let her be caught up in this whirlpool?
The Feng Family is too complicated, the girl truly isn’t suited to stay here.
