Rejected by Blood, Embraced by Love: All-Round Star Goes Viral

Gu Zhi: "..."

She replied with two words: "It's fine."

After all, this matter didn't affect her much; she wasn't the one who liked it.

Moreover, the other person naturally attracted attention, and a small gesture could bring her a lot of exposure.

Qi Hanyu sent two more messages, cautiously:

QHY: "I'll be more careful in the future."

QHY: "The dance was really nice."

Gu Zhi paused for a moment, smiled lightly, and replied with a thank you, using the excuse of needing a rest to end the conversation.

She dealt with some work-related messages and put down her phone.

Netizens wanted to come to the live stream to find some sweet moments and see Gu Zhi's reaction to this matter, but they saw she just glanced at her phone before heading to rest, leaving them wanting more.

Such a big event happened, doesn't she have anything to say about it?

As the live stream reached the time to go offline, Father Qin turned off the lights, and the entire earthen house fell into darkness.

The next day, the program group still started the broadcast on time, reaching the conclusion of this episode.

The guests packed their luggage after staying for a few days in the simple and dim earthen house, each experiencing something different.

For Jiang Xiangwan and Sun Chaohua, there wasn't much of a difference from their lavishly decorated houses. However, Gu Yiyi was highly uncomfortable; she felt like she was covered in dust, and even the luggage she packed in the end was dust-laden.

Nauseating!

She had never lived in such a house her whole life.

It was even worse than the environment in the Qin Family's old home back then!

On the contrary, the cave dwelling where Gu Zhi and others stayed was clearly smaller than theirs, yet it was much cleaner, brighter, and warmer.

No matter what it was, Father Qin and Mrs. Qin kept everything tidy for Gu Zhi, even cleaning her shoes and hat so meticulously that no trace of dust was visible. They dried them in the courtyard and then helped her put them away.

However, Gu Mu did nothing for her; even washing a cup required calling her over.

They were always used to a life of luxury, when did they ever do anything themselves?

Mrs. Qin was different. As long as she could do it, she would do it for Gu Zhi.

For the first time, Gu Yiyi felt that being a daughter of the Qin Family might not be so bad. Father Qin, Mrs. Qin, and those brothers all spoiled Gu Zhi thoroughly.

Although her brothers treated her well, they never went to such lengths for her.

Moreover, now the Gu Group was in a precarious state, with the industry chain exploding with various issues. If they couldn't be solved, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Compared to the Qin Family, she saw a financial news yesterday that Qin Ji was once again featured in the Financial Times. His newly registered investment company was officially launched, and their first project was a major collaboration with Chairman Yang's ITI, highly regarded within the industry.

If the company established by Qin Ji surpassed the Gu Family...

Thinking of this, Gu Yiyi felt an inexplicable panic.

No, impossible, the Gu Group is a century-old enterprise, with deep roots, impossible to be easily shaken.

Even if Qin Ji worked hard for a hundred years, it's impossible to surpass.

Gu Yiyi lifted her gaze, looking at the three walking out of the earthen house, Father Qin, Mrs. Qin, and Gu Zhi, with complex eyes.

But Father Qin and Mrs. Qin didn't notice her, their attention focused on Gu Zhi, saying, "This is the porridge I made for you this morning, put it in the thermos, it'll be just right for drinking later."

Gu Zhi took the thermos and her luggage with a faint smile, "Thanks, Mom."

"I'll carry it, I'll carry it, there's still a bit of a walk down, can't have you carrying everything." Mrs. Qin said as they walked.

Looking at their backs, Gu Yiyi's face darkened.

But before she could think further, Gu Mu came out from inside, handing her a suitcase, saying, "Let's go, hurry, we'll be late soon, and miss the meal."

Looking at the several suitcases on the ground, Gu Yiyi had a headache; the two of them had brought quite a lot of stuff, making it impossible to carry everything.

Frowning, Gu Mu complained, "The program group is really stingy, not even arranging someone to help with the luggage."

Just as she finished speaking, they bumped into the Han Family trio coming from the other side. Seeing Han Liheng, she hurriedly said, "Han, you have less luggage, help us with ours, we have too much and can't carry it."

Hearing this, Han Liheng frowned, Father Han and Han Mu weren't pleased either, but out of courtesy, Han Liheng still stepped forward to help with a suitcase.

[... Oh my, Han Bao is so unlucky, just got out and became a porter, thankfully the Qin Family ran away quickly.]

[Seriously, if you can't carry it, don't bring so much; I'm really curious what they packed in four suitcases for just a three-day stay. Asking others for help—is that even reasonable?]

[Gu Mu and Yiyi are always used to a lavish lifestyle, bringing more things is normal, but the program group is indeed too stingy, not helping with their luggage.]

[The Gu Group's financial situation is so critical, yet still acting all high and mighty? Better spend that money fixing the company's holes.]

...

Upon reaching the meeting point, after everyone gathered, the program team came out, handing each of them a letter and a card, and then said:

"As of today, our 'Dear Family' has recorded six episodes. During this time, we've experienced rivalry, teamwork, hardships, and journeyed across the beautiful country, all with the companionship of family. I believe these six episodes might be the first time you spent so much time with family after starting work, surely providing many different insights.

Now each person has a letter and a card, and you can write a message to your parents or children on the card or in the letter. The card, like in the first episode, will be read aloud by the program team. The letter will be sent to the post office by the team, and they will help deliver the letter to each of you. Consider it a summary of your time together or your insights. Leaving beautiful memories with each other."

The crowd, hearing this, took the envelopes with some surprise.

Han Liheng scratched his head, frowned, and said, "Another reflection? You really love reflecting."

The director's team: "..."

[Hahaha, Han Liheng never disappoints, always so blunt.]

[Why 'another'? Is he still thinking about that 5000-word reflection?]

[Suddenly emotional, does this mean the season is really ending at this point? Ties back to the first season.]

[Ah? No, I haven't had enough yet, didn't hear any word about conclusion.]

[According to the episode count, probably about right—don't want to watch now, I can't bear to part with Zhi Zhi.]

The comments suddenly filled with reluctance, and the guests seemed to sense it too. Han Mu, easily moved to tears, started tearing up even before the program team said anything. She wiped her eyes, urging, "Hurry and write, finish it and wrap up the recording."

Everyone recorded so many episodes together; although it only seemed like two months looking back, they got used to each other's presence. It's truly a bit hard to accept suddenly bringing it to an end.
