Gu Yin felt the sting on her behind and tears began to dampen her eyes.
But in the next moment, she found herself in an embrace, one that was warm and carried a faint, soothing fragrance. In this embrace, the pain seemed to vanish, leaving Gu Yin stunned into silence.
Gu Dai cradled Gu Yin to the couch, her voice a gentle whisper, “Yinyin, are you hurt anywhere?”
Gu Yin, still in a daze, shook her head slightly and replied softly, “No, I’m fine.”
Gu Dai spoke softly with a tinge of regret, “I’m sorry, I should have stopped you from pouring water earlier.”
Gu Dai had been preoccupied with how to handle the matter of Gu Yin offering her poisoned water, momentarily forgetting the dangers a child could face in such an act.
Looking up at Gu Dai, Gu Yin whispered, “It’s my fault. 1 wanted to pour the water. Cousin Gu Dai, 1’11 be fine after 1 rest a little.”
After she inspected Gu Yin and found no injuries, she finally let herself relax and responded, “Alright.”
As Gu Yin observed the care Gu Dai showed, a warm flush crept up to her eyes, and she covertly wiped away her tears.
Never before had Gu Yin felt cared for by anyone, and Gu Dai was the first.
With this realization, Gu Yin’s heart firmed with a decision. She looked at Gu Dai with a resolute gaze, intending to divulge the task Gu Zhi had assigned her.
But when Gu Dai saw Gu Yin’s expression, she knew what was about to happen. She lifted a finger to her lips, signaling silence.
Gu Yin, puzzled, complied with obedient silence.
Gu Dai’s gaze then fell upon the teddy bear necklace around Gu Yin’s neck. She pressed a bulge on the necklace, opening it to reveal and switch off a small, red-glowing orb.
Upon seeing this, Gu Yin’s eyes were filled with confusion as she asked, “What is this?”
“It’s a miniature camera,” Gu Dai revealed.
Gu Yin gasped in shock, “What!”
Though young, Gu Yin had heard of such devices in dramas. Now, to her astonishment, one was in her very possession.
Realizing its significance, Gu Yin hastily explained, “Cousin Gu Zhi gave this to me this morning. I had no idea there was a camera inside.”
Gu Dai nodded and suggested, “Let’s go upstairs to talk.”
Upon entering Gu Dai’s room, Gu Yin couldn’t help but exclaim in wonder, “Cousin Daidai, your room is so beautiful! It’s nothing like what Cousin Gu Zhi told me.”
Sitting on the couch, Gu Dai inquired, “What did Gu Zhi say?”
Gu Yin answered, “Cousin Gu Zhi said your room was filled with tools to torture children.”
Gu Dai expected Gu Zhi to smear her reputation but not to the extent of scaring a child, which she found utterly immoral.
“Why did you come with me if she told you my room was dangerous?” Gu Dai asked.
A genuine smile broke on Gu Yin’s face as she cheerfully said, “Because my intuition told me that Cousin Daidai is a good person, not at all like what Cousin Gu Zhi described.”
Gu Yin continued, “Cousin Daidai, I was actually trying to slip you a sleeping pill earlier. I’m sorry…”
Her voice trailed off to a whisper.
Gu Dai patted her head softly and spoke quietly, “1 know. But what you were giving me was not sleeping pills, it was poison.”
Gu Yin froze, her disbelief audible, “How could that be? But Cousin Gu Zhi clearly…”
As she spoke, understanding dawned on her. Although she often appeared naive, her challenging upbringing had made her wiser than her peers.
With a mother who abandoned her and a father given to drunken violence, not to mention a brother of similar age but a different mother, Gu Yin’s life was far from easy.
Yet, it was precisely because of her yearning for affection that she seldom doubted Gu Zhi’s words.
“That’s right, Gu Zhi lied to you,” Gu Dai stated.
Gu Dai sighed softly, her gaze meeting Gu Yin’s as she spoke gently, “Yinyin, the most important thing in life is to improve oneself. There is no need to please or yield to others, as they may not reciprocate kindness and might even take advantage of you.”
Gu Yin nodded and whispered in understanding, “Cousin Daidai, 1 get it now..”
