4707 Never Too Late to Love (114)

Bai Sheng was dumbfounded upon hearing this.

Firstly, she was shocked by how much pocket money Gu Lingge had. Secondly, she was shocked by how pitiful Gu Xinghan was.

"He must be exaggerating?" Bai Sheng gently tugged at Gu Chengze's sleeve and said with some heartache, "Isn't the difference in treatment between your younger brother and younger sister rather scary? Does your family favor girls over boys?"

"Uh huh."

Gu Chengze pouted and said, "When I was young, my father was very violent towards me. Initially, I had thought that he treated everyone like this, but when my sister was born, it was astonishing. As soon as he got home, he would immediately pick up his little princess. It was as though he carried her all the way until she was 10. It was only when she was 10 years old that he was willing to let her walk on her own."

When Bai Sheng heard this, she was extremely shocked. At the same time, she was a little envious.

Actually, her own father did not seem to like daughters very much. Although he doted on her, he'd always said that he wanted a son. Hence, her mother worked hard at an attempt to give him a son.

However, a car accident sent their family into crisis. Even her unborn brother did not have a chance to see this world.

But this matter made no huge impact on Bai Sheng. She grew up with in her aunt's household, wehre her cousin brother was doted on. It was not something she could ever hope for.

Hence, she even thought that the entire world was probably like this, favoring boys over girls.

Habit is a terrible thing.

She seemed to be used to her aunt's "rules of survival", so she naturally thought that was how the rest of the world functioned, that boys were favored over girls.

Given this, Bai Sheng was both surprised at, and envious of Gu Lingge, who had been doted on since she was young.

Gu Chengze noticed the disappointment and fascination in her expression, and felt his heart ache. He could tell that she must be envious of Gu Lingge.

Gu Lingge saw that Bai Sheng was staring at her, but there was a hint of envy in her eyes. For some reason, she felt at a loss.

"Why are you staring at my sister?" Gu Chengze patted Bai Sheng's head. "Why, are you very envious?"

"Of course!" Bai Sheng took a deep breath and was unable to conceal the fervor in her eyes. "I… I lost my father when I was very young, so… I miss him a little."

The memories of her father seemed to be getting blurrier over time. She tried her best to recall, but there was just no deep impression.

She had also tried to imagine what her life would be like if her father were still around. Wealth aside… Presumably, she would be very happy?

Gu Chengze squeezed her palm gently like he was squeezing a cat's paw. "There's nothing to be envious of. She should envy you, on the contrary. Such a wonderful brother has been kidnapped by another woman."

When Gu Lingge heard this, a look of disdain instantly appeared on her face. "Hey, when did I say that? 'Wonderful brother'?"

She snorted coldly and walked to Gu Linxi's side. She put her arms around his and declared, "I only acknowledge this 'wonderful brother'."

"Biased!" Gu Chengze said coldly, "Pestering Linxi is all you know."

"At least Big Brother Linxi never bullies me!"

"Oh?" Gu Chengze said lightly, "Who keeps pestering me to help her with her homework? Are you turning your back on me now?"
