Su Lingzhi was quite experienced in dealing with Gu Zhen. It was almost a conditioned reaction for her to act coquettishly. Every time she acted coquettishly, Gu Zhen couldn't stand it and gave in without any bottom line.

"Mr. Gu, tell me what you like to hear and I'll tell you." Su Lingzhi also put on an attitude that said, "I want to have a heart-to-heart talk with you." Gu Zhen lowered his eyes, and began to keep silent, pretending to be dead.

"Well, since you don't want to talk, we'll talk when you want to." Su Lingzhi took out a Grimm's Fairy Tales and started reading. This fairy tale book was given to her by Jian Yuxing as a birthday gift. At first, she had no memory of it and was very surprised why Jian Yuxing gave her a Grimm's Fairy Tales. Now that she has memory, she knows that the person who accompanied her that day was Wen Han, and the gift was also given to her by Wen Han.

At that time on the Death Island, she told Wen Han that she actually liked fairy tale books very much.

When she was little, she was a child who remembered food but not beatings. No matter how much Chen Chunhua beat her or abused her, she was still a little girl who stuck to Chen Chunhua. Chen Chunhua didn't just abuse her. When she was in a good mood, she would buy her ice cream. When she made money one day, she would also buy her a beautiful little skirt. Because her mother treated her badly since she was a child, Su Lingzhi would remember every little bit of goodness for a long, long time.

Children are naturally attached to their mothers when they are young, and Su Lingzhi is no exception. When she was in kindergarten, there was a little girl in her class who loved to be beautiful and dressed like a princess every day. Su Lingzhi liked her pretty little skirt, beautiful little crown, and beautiful crystal shoes very much. The little girl boasted that she was Snow White.

Her skirt was a princess skirt. At that time, Su Lingzhi didn't know what a princess skirt was, and she had never read a fairy tale book, so the little girl brought her Grimm's Fairy Tales from home.

At that time, Su Lingzhi could not read many words and only knew how to look at pictures. She liked the illustrations in fairy tales very much. That was the image of the princess in her heart. She knew that fairy tale books were very expensive. A hard-bound Grimm's Fairy Tales with illustrations cost more than 100 yuan. Her pocket money was only 50 cents a day, so it took her a very long time to save up for it.

So on her birthday, she asked Chen Chunhua if she could buy her a fairy tale book as a gift.

Chen Chunhua was in a bad mood that day. She was always in a bad mood on her birthday, but she would celebrate her birthday every year by just buying her a very small piece of cake and saying "Happy Birthday, daughter".

No gifts.

She didn't expect any gifts. Su Lingzhi was already very satisfied to have a piece of cake on her birthday that she couldn't eat on weekdays.

That was the first time she asked for a fairy tale book as a birthday present, but she was beaten by Chen Chunhua. Su Lingzhi was five years old that year, and was old enough to remember things. She still remembered the scolding Chen Chunhua used at her. It was very ugly. She said that she was born to be a lowly person and should struggle in the mud with her and should not think about being a princess.

She was beaten all over and was very scared. She hasn't asked for any birthday presents since then.

At that time, she and Wen Han hid in the tree to avoid the enemy and talked about the most unforgettable things in their childhood. What she remembered most... was not being beaten for asking for gifts on her birthday, but the fairy tale book that was very beautiful in her memory. It was her most beautiful dream when she was young.

Until her adult birthday, the birthday present she had been looking forward to for more than ten years was finally handed to her. She still couldn't put it down as she did in her childhood, even though she had not read many fairy tales.

If others saw her as an adult still reading fairy tales, they would probably laugh at her.

Gu Zhen never spoiled her fun and never teased her about why she was still reading such a childish fairy tale. Gu Zhen asked, "You have read this book many times. Do you like it?"

"I like it very much." Su Lingzhi said, "I like every story. Did you read fairy tales when you were a child?"

"No."

"Neither do I." Su Lingzhi said with a smile, "Does this count as making up for the loss of my childhood?"

"As long as you like it." Gu Zhen felt a little distressed. He had never read fairy tales. His childhood was a mess. He mistook a thief for his father and his mother was crazy. He had a worse life than Su Lingzhi, but he felt sorry for Su Lingzhi's childhood.

If only I had met her earlier.

But even if they knew each other in childhood, what would that matter? How could he protect Su Lingzhi when he couldn't even protect himself?

"When I was little, I always thought that when I grew up, I would buy a lot of beautiful dresses and jewelry and dress up beautifully, just like the princess in the illustrations. Even after I lost my memory, I kept this original intention." Su Lingzhi was in a very peaceful mood, "Gu Zhen, you know my past self from the investigation report. What you know is the me after I lost my memory. In fact... that is really not me."

Gu Zhen got angry, "If I had known, I wouldn't have chatted. There's nothing I like to hear from you."

Su Lingzhi laughed and closed the book. "Let's chat for a while. I have something to tell you."

Gu Zhen had a cold face, as if to say, "You say it, it's up to me whether you listen or not." Su Lingzhi said, "In fact, I have never been a very likable child since I was a child. Chen Chunhua doesn't like me. In addition to the fact that Su Wan and I were switched, which is her concern, it is more or less related to my personality."
