Transmigrated Into a Book: The Villain I Raised Is Plotting Against Me! - Chapter 31

At that moment, a tiny tug pulled at the corner of her clothes.

Mu Suru turned her head and saw Ren Zai dressed in a cute green dinosaur outfit, making his delicate features even more charming.

However, those unusually large black grape-like eyes were glistening with moisture.

Looking at his full forehead beaded with sweat and his small mouth panting, Mu Suru knew that although the little villain could walk now, he still couldn’t handle high-intensity activity.

So, even though Ren Zai desperately wanted to go, they had previously agreed not to bring him along.

Mu Suru bent down, pinched his soft cheek, and her almond-shaped eyes filled with apology: “Little Zai, I’m sorry… I promise I’ll take you next time.”

Ren Zai pouted adorably, making her feel a little guilty.

Judging from his appearance, he should have followed her all the way.

Mu Suru extended her pinky finger, and in the dim light, his fair, plump face, with eyes sparkling like water, was full of laughter. She assured him, “Little Zai, let’s make a pinky promise, we will always be together~”

Ren Zai, with a vague expression, hooked his pinky with hers, grinning widely and revealing a gap-toothed smile: “Sister, you have to keep your promise!”

Otherwise, Little Zai would hide you in a deserted place, and you’d only belong to me!

His voice was soft and sweet, with a youthful tone.

Mu Suru quickly nodded and then stood up to hold Ren Zai’s little hand.

He happily intertwined his fingers with hers, as if he would never let go.

Then, they happily made their way to the pastry shop.

“Sister, I haven’t seen you for a long time… Let’s go home… Mom and Dad are worried sick!”

Her overly dramatic tone made Mu Suru sniffle, and she pulled Ren Zai to hide behind a door and watch.

A girl dressed simply in a white shirt and tight pants, with a delicate oval face, appeared.

Her expression of concern broke Gu Pei’s calm facade.

“I don’t have a sister like you, a child born to a mistress who successfully replaced the original wife… do you think you deserve to be with me?”

She flirtatiously tossed her wine-red short hair, her raised eyes carrying a hint of disdain.

Gu Huan was nearly unmasked by such taunts.

Let’s see how long you can stay proud!

Her face displayed extreme grievance, as if she had been bullied.

“Sister, even though you’ve tried to frame me many times, I don’t mind… Dad is willing to forgive you.

Just come back… don’t run away from home again… and don’t dress in a way that makes Dad angry…”

There are many meanings revealed in her words, and gradually, those who had just bought pastries began to stop.

Everyone opened their ears, ready for gossip.

“Huh? Did Dad really say that? I think he’d rather I die outside!”

Gu Pei, standing at a height of 1.7 meters, appeared even taller, almost 1.8 meters.

Her wine-red short hair made her already fair skin even more striking, exuding an aura of confidence.

“How can you say that, sister? If it weren’t for your reckless behavior… Dad wouldn’t have been so angry as to kick you out!”

Gu Huan pretended to cover her mouth, her face showing guilt as the crowd began to speculate.

“Tsk, filial piety should come first, you should respect your elders…”

“No matter what, you can’t just run away from home over a disagreement…”

“How willful!”

Gu Pei nonchalantly scratched her ear, her face full of impatience: “Do you only know how to say those few lines, little green tea? If there’s nothing else, I’m leaving!”

Seeing that this didn’t provoke her, Gu Huan had an idea.

“I heard the room on the left side of the study has been vacant for too long, and Dad said he might tear it down to make a dollhouse…”

Just then, a fist sliced through the air with a “bang.”

Gu Huan became startled, the fist that was aimed at her face changed direction and slammed into the wall beside her.

The powerful airflow messed up her hair, and she lost the fairy-like air she had before.

What should have been a gentle wall slam turned deadly.

Gu Huan, a bit frightened, raised her eyes and met Gu Pei’s gaze, which was filled with undisguised murderous intent.

“That’s my mom’s bedroom, let’s see who dares!”

She was so scared that she fell against the white wall.

“Huan-er… what’s wrong…”

Yao Yuan, with his long legs, walked over, holding two steaming cups of milk tea.

He had just come from the milk tea shop across the street and saw Gu Huan in that position.

A slight displeasure arose in his heart, but Yao Yuan concealed it well.

He wore a blue knitted jacket that was both comfortable and high-end.

His lower half was in deep brown casual pants, and a pair of color matching shoes, showcasing his masculine gentleness.

Seeing Yao Yuan’s soft expression made Gu Huan unable to hold back her tears of grievance.

Her beauty, like a rain-soaked pear blossom, attracted much attention, and several people began to criticize Gu Pei.

Yao Yuan, who despised women crying, struggled to suppress his irritation.

He patiently softened his tone to comfort her.

This woman is still useful, at least he can’t mess things up now…

Once he calmed her down, Yao Yuan turned back, but he could only see the girl in the blue dress pulling Gu Pei away in the distance.

A little boy was trying to follow them with slow steps but eventually got lost in the bustling crowd.

It was her…

“Brother Yao Yuan, what’s wrong?”

Gu Huan was puzzled why he kept staring at Gu Pei’s departing figure. Could it be?

She tightly clung to Yao Yuan’s arm, deliberately rubbing her white and plump part of her chest.

Yao Yuan came back to his senses, feeling the soft touch on his arm.

Not only did he not feel the primitive desire, he felt extremely nauseous.

He slowly withdrew his arm and pulled Gu Huan up.

With slender fingers, he gently brushed away the tears on her eyelashes.

His lowered brow was filled with deep affection.

This made Gu Huan’s heart lose its direction, unaware of the cold indifference hidden in his deep gaze.

Mu Suru linked arms with Gu Pei, feeling the hard muscles, and couldn’t help but blink: “Sister Gu, what a coincidence… I didn’t know you liked pastries too!”

Gu Pei felt uncomfortable with the warm temperature, but she had to endure it for this little girl she had liked for half a year.

She looked at the exquisitely packaged pastries in her hand, her expression suddenly dimming.

She didn’t like sweets, she had instinctively bought this brand of pastries because that old man at home loved them…
