Chapter 1046: Can’t Compare to My Sister

Editor: Henyee Translations

“Bai Yueshuang?”

Gu Yang was taken aback and quickly realized that Bai Yueshuang was likely the name Shen Qin had used for her.

With a hint of bitterness, she murmured, “Bai Yueshuang—she might as well be called Bai Yueguang.”

Xiao Yize gently rubbed Gu Yang’s head, his voice warm and filled with affection. “My sister is like the bright moon in the sky. Whether it’s the moonlight or the frost on the ground, nothing can compare to you.”

Gu Yang blinked, her gaze shifting to her brother-in-law who was also her brother. “Your words are quite nice.”

She had always heard that Xiao Yize had a sharp tongue, but she didn’t expect him to be so kind and reassuring.

Why had it taken him so long to woo her sister? Could it be that he was shy around her?

Unaware of her internal musings, Xiao Yize continued, trying to offer her comfort. “Think about it, Sister. You’re an SSS-level hypnotist. How many people in the world can claim that?”

He paused for a moment, then added, “Right now, you’re the only one officially recognized. And besides you, who else in the entire country has a perfume that sells for 200 million yuan?”

“How many people could score full marks on the College Entrance Examination like you and study multiple subjects at once?”

“Think about it. Do you really believe your sister-in-law and boyfriend are so blind they can’t recognize someone as extraordinary as you?”

Gu Yang listened to Xiao Yize listing her unique qualities, her eyes growing misty.

When she heard him imply that they were blind, she shot him a fierce look. “Don’t criticize them!”

Xiao Yize quickly reassured her. “Okay, okay. I didn’t mean to criticize. Look, Sister, even you know it’s not possible. You’re so exceptional—there’s no one who could replace you, let alone be a substitute for you.”

Gu Yang huffed but felt her mood lift.

Deep down, she knew that neither Big Shot Sister nor Little Blood Bank would treat her as a substitute. It was more about her own insecurities and the absence of shared memories that made her anxious.

Xiao Yize looked at her with sincerity. “Yangyang, you’re unique in our eyes. You’re also my one-of-a-kind sister.”

Suddenly, Gu Yang wanted to see her sister and Feng Jue. “Where are they now?”

Xiao Yize gently touched her hair and smiled. “They’re at the hospital. I’ll take you there.”

Having calmed his sister, he knew Gu Jin would be thrilled to see her.

Gu Yang nodded. “Yes.”

Today was the day Shen Ran was to be discharged, and Gu Jin, Feng Jue, and Cao Cuo went to the hospital to see him.

Although Shen Qin had provided an explanation for Shen Ran’s confinement, Gu Jin and the others were skeptical and did not trust Shen Qin’s one-sided account.

In the VIP ward of the capital’s First Hospital, Shen Ran sat alone on the hospital bed. His face was still pale, and the stitches on his left wrist were an ugly reminder of his injuries. He looked as though he were a ferocious centipede.

He sat in silence, his eyes dark and vacant.

A familiar mocking voice broke the silence. “Cutting your wrist? Shen Ran, it’s been years since we last met, and you’re really something.”

Shen Ran looked up, stunned, and saw Feng Jue entering. The young man, though still recognizable, had grown and become even more strikingly handsome.

Behind him were Gu Jin, exuding cold beauty, and Cao Cuo, with his melancholic yet handsome demeanor.

“You guys…” Shen Ran’s voice faltered as he recognized his old comrades. He was momentarily disoriented, feeling as if time had stood still and that everything from the past had returned.
