Chapter 1186: Extra Chapter: Gu Pei and Qing Shuling 2
Editor: Henyee Translations
In the past, he might have easily pursued whichever girl he liked and wanted to date.
But Qin Shuling was different. She was his close friend’s sister.
If Lingling only had a fleeting crush on him and things ended badly, wouldn’t Qin Xian beat him to death?
Qin Shuling looked up at him with a serious expression. “Yes, Brother Gu Pei, I’m serious. I really like you. Can we try this together?”
Gu Pei stared at her, conflicted. But when he met her bright, earnest gaze, he couldn’t bring himself to say no. After a long pause, he finally replied, “Okay.”
...
Qin Shuling broke into a joyful smile and suddenly leapt up to hug him.
She was over the moon—Brother Gu Pei had agreed to be with her!
Caught off guard by her hug, Gu Pei quickly put his arms around her to steady her, feeling the warmth of her embrace through his shirt. His face heated up, even to his ears.
For a moment, he was taken aback.
So this was what it felt like to truly be in love? It was different from the impulsive crushes of high school; this was a young man’s genuine, long-held affection.
Qin Shuling was obviously thrilled, her voice bright. “Brother Gu Pei, you agreed so quickly! You must like me a little, right?”

Using the darkness to hide the blush spreading across his cheeks, Gu Pei raised an eyebrow and smiled. “Sister Lingling, you’re amazing. Of course I like you.”
Qin Shuling beamed proudly. “Brother Gu Pei, you’ve got good taste.”
She fell for him at first sight. He was good-looking, as striking as his two sisters in the young doctor’s office. Plus, he fit her ideal type perfectly.
She even thought, with that face alone, he could make anyone want an extra helping at dinner.
Later, she leveraged her brother’s connection to get close to Gu Pei over time. Only then did she realize that beneath his confident exterior was a young man both bold and ambitious, with a sincerity as bright as the sun.
As the Qin family’s daughter, she had always been exceptionally talented. From a young age, she was groomed as the successor to her family’s darker dealings, managing sensitive matters with composure. She was someone who had merged seamlessly with the shadows.
Most young heirs and heiresses in the capital feared her and regarded her with suspicion, but he didn’t.
Whether she played innocent or bared her fangs and claws, Gu Pei always treated her with the same sincere respect.
Hand in hand, Gu Pei and Qin Shuling walked back into the living room.
In the brightly lit room, everyone’s eyes turned to them, watching as if under a spotlight.
Without the cover of night, bathed in the light and under so many familiar gazes, Qin Shuling felt her cheeks unexpectedly grow warm.
Gu Yang had long noticed that Qin Shuling harbored feelings for her silly brother. Earlier, she had seen Gu Pei pulling Qin Shuling aside, and now, seeing them return hand in hand, a slight smile played on her lips.
“Brother, what’s going on?” Gu Yang asked with a knowing look.
Gu Pei, still holding Qin Shuling’s hand, announced confidently, “Sis, I’m dating Lingling. She’s my girlfriend now.”
Gu Yang smiled warmly. “Congratulations.”
Qin Shuling beamed. “Thank you, Sister.”
The others quickly joined in to congratulate them.
Qin Xian looked momentarily surprised—he hadn’t expected his sister to win over Pei so quickly.
Blushing, Gu Pei led Qin Shuling over to Qin Xian. “Brother Xian, I didn’t mean to steal your ‘cabbage,’ but… I couldn’t help myself.”
Qin Xian glanced from his mischievous sister to his good friend, Pei, and patted Gu Pei’s shoulder with a mix of emotions. “I understand.”
After all, his sister had been the one to set her sights on him first.
Faced with his sister’s slightly intimidating smile, Qin Xian abandoned any thoughts of acting high and mighty as her brother-in-law. He simply cleared his throat and said to Gu Pei, “Take good care of my sister.”
‘Or else.’
Gu Pei nodded earnestly. “Don’t worry, Brother Xian!”
Later, at home, Qin Xian noticed how unusually cheerful Qin Shuling seemed. Studying her carefully, he asked, “So, Lingling… is Pei really dating you?”
Qin Shuling was nearly humming with pride. “Yes.”
Qin Xian raised an eyebrow. “You didn’t, uh, use any special tactics, did you?”
Like hypnosis?
Qin Shuling narrowed her eyes, giving him a knowing smile. “Brother, let’s keep our thoughts to ourselves.”
Qin Xian chuckled nervously. “Of course, of course. Wishing you a blissful union.”
Qin Shuling huffed. “With a top-notch hypnotist like Sister Gu Yang around, do you really think I could hypnotize Brother Gu Pei?”
Qin Xian quickly agreed, “Yes, yes. My sister is absolutely one-of-a-kind. Any guy who isn’t blind would be lucky to have you.”
Qin Shuling frowned. “Don’t talk about my boyfriend like that.”
Qin Xian was left speechless.
Somehow, he couldn’t shake a slight pang of jealousy.
