Chapter 305: We Must’ve Been A Family In The Previous Life
The cosmic alliance exam was a major event in one’s life.
Ever since the resumption of administering entrance examinations in the late 1970s, many students who desired to change their destiny chose to walk this path. Of course, given the low admission rate of the First Empire Academy, most youths were displaced from the tracks.
Family members paid a great deal of attention to this matter too. Later on, it became a tradition for students to take the test inside while their parents waited outside.
Naturally, Gu Yan didn’t expect her own family to accompany her when she finally decided to take the cosmic alliance exam.
Even Lu Ye wasn’t certain whether he could finish his mission before the day of the examination. He might not be able to rush back in time.
She had mentally prepared herself to face it alone. But now that Xie Luan suddenly offered to go with her, her heart was touched.
Being escorted by a family member was not a luxury she had in her previous life.
Whatever she had to do prior to her rebirth, she had to do it alone. She had been seasoned to become strong on her own.
Otherwise, her life would have stopped at Jialuo!
Gu Yan coughed gently to cover up her shock and said, “Would that be… too troublesome for you?”
“What do you mean by trouble? You’re my goddaughter. We’re a family.” Xie Luan smiled gently and said, “Xiao Yan, ever since I met you for the first time, I felt quite close to you. I believe we must have been a family in the previous life.”
Gu Yan’s smile froze. A sour and bitter yet sweet feeling spread across her heart.
‘We are a family…’
She opened her mouth. It was trembling a little, but the sentence just then became stuck in her throat.
‘Mom, mom, I am Xiao Yan. I am your daughter. It is me…’
‘But would you believe it if I said it?’
‘Would you believe that the daughter you raised for 19 years isn’t your own daughter?’
‘Would you believe that the daughter before you is the real one?’
Her emotions were in turmoil as they collided with her rationality.
After Xie Luan spoke, she went to grab the heated water bottle. However, her eyes remained fixed on Gu Yan’s face.
Overall, Gu Yan’s expression didn’t appear to change much. She was still smiling but… she paused for a moment.
Xie Luan’s heart skipped a beat. She recalled what Boss Liu said.
Gu Yan also found her voice again. “Godmother, do you really believe in a past life?”
“Some things, if you believe in them, then they exist. If you don’t believe them, then they don’t exist. But you know that I write novels. There are a lot of things in it that aren’t logical. At first glance, it doesn’t appear plausible at all, but I want to convince the readers to believe it. I firmly believe that sometimes, life is more interesting and has more twists and turns than novels.”
This was indeed something an author would say. Gu Yan remembered reading one book that Xie Luan wrote prior to her rebirth. It was about past lives.
Unfortunately, she couldn’t recall when the book was written. Hence, she couldn’t just carelessly mention it. Otherwise, what would happen if Xie Luan was supposed to write the book at a later date?
But then, Xie Luan suddenly slapped her leg and said, “Ah, Xiao Yan, you gave me some inspiration. I’ll write about past life in my next book. Two lifetimes of relationship. It can be about family or love. This is great!
Upon seeing Xie Luan rushing to take out a pen and paper so as to organize her thoughts, Gu Yan didn’t know how to react.
She didn’t know where Xie Luan got her inspiration for the same subject prior to her rebirth, but in this life… the book would still be written, but the inspiration originated from her?!
