The villain is too crazy, the little ancestor is not going to do it anymore - Chapter 291 Choice
Gu Ranle couldn't be sure whether Song Yan was still alive.
However, there was one thing she was clear about: Ci Nian had passed away when she was born twenty-five years ago.
Thinking of this, her mood became a little complicated.
"Have a good sleep tonight, and I'll take you to meet them tomorrow morning." Gu Jiu looked at her and said calmly.
"..."
Gu Ranle opened her mouth. She actually really wanted to go right away. She couldn't keep things to herself. Once she had a question, she wanted to find it out right away.
But then I thought again, it was indeed too late now.
It's no big deal for her to stay up all night, but her old man can't stand it.
The old man stayed up all night yesterday. Although he slept all afternoon, his temper was as hot as a powder keg when he got up and he could explode at any time.
If I stay up all night longer, my body will not be able to take it and my temper will explode. It will be bad if innocent people are harmed.
After all, staying up late can easily make people irritable and restless.
After thinking about it, Gu Ranle felt that it would be better not to stay up late.
She nodded slightly and replied, "Okay."
That night, Gu Ranle slept particularly soundly.
The next morning, Gu Ranle got up early to exercise as usual. After a night of rest, she was not so eager to know the answer.
After the exercise, she had breakfast and went out with Gu Jiu.
As soon as Li Xiuneng heard that they were going out, he immediately expressed his desire to go with them.
But Gu Jiu had no intention of letting him go, and he found an excuse to get rid of him: "You have lived in my house for so many days, it's time for you to go home and see your father."
After saying that, without caring whether Li Xiuneng was willing or not, he waved his hand and asked the bodyguards to pack up Li Xiuneng's things and send him back to the Li family.
In the car, Gu Ranle couldn't help it anymore, so he turned his head and looked at Gu Jiu, saying, "Master, can't you be nicer to Li Xiuneng? Think about it, from another perspective, if I were in the Li family now and was treated like you by Li Xiuneng's family, how aggrieved and uncomfortable I would feel."
Gu Jiu glared at her unhappily after hearing this, with a hint of rebuke in his voice: "Hey, girl, you haven't even gotten married yet, and you're already turning your elbows outward? If you really get married, will you even abandon an old man like me?"
"How is this possible!" Gu Ranle's eyes widened immediately after hearing this, his face full of seriousness, "You are my grandfather! In this world, I can do without anyone except you. You are the most important to me, no one can compare to you."
Gu Jiu's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a barely perceptible smile on his face, but he still deliberately kept a straight face and asked, "Really?"
"How could this be false?" Gu Ranle was anxious, and quickly raised three fingers and said seriously, "I swear to God! If I tell even a single lie, then..."
Gu Jiu interrupted her with a smile: "Alright, alright, who asked you to swear?"
He thought for a moment, then asked, "What if I ask you to choose between me and Li Xiuneng? You can only choose one, who will you choose?"
"Master, are you serious?" Gu Ranle was stunned for a moment and looked at Gu Jiu with confusion in his eyes.
Gu Jiu nodded, looking serious.
Gu Ranle said without hesitation, "Then I will definitely choose you. There is no need to think about it. You are the person closest to me. You have raised me since I was a child. No one can compare to this feeling."
"Don't you like him very much?" Gu Jiu asked again, with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.
"I like him, but if I like him I have to give up you, then I can choose not to like him." Gu Ranle said seriously, "In my heart, you will always be the first, and no one can replace you. If being with him means I have to make you sad, then I would rather not like him."
Her words made Gu Jiu feel a little at a loss.
He originally just wanted to tease this girl and see who was more important in her heart, but he didn't expect her to give such a firm answer.
Although he had always looked down on Li Xiuneng and felt that the boy was not worthy of his precious granddaughter, he had never thought of forcing her to break up with Li Xiuneng. He asked her this today purely out of jealousy.
When I think about the possibility that my granddaughter might start a family with another man in the future, I feel sad, as if my baby is being taken away by someone else.
He also felt that he was ridiculous. He was jealous of a child at his age. If this got out, people would laugh their heads off.
But how can the feeling in my heart be so easy to control?
Ugh!
He sighed in his heart, raised his hand, and gently rubbed Gu Ranle's head, with a hint of helplessness in his voice: "Silly girl, don't you think that grandpa's request is unreasonable? I just feel a little uncomfortable, so I asked you this."
Gu Ranle thought seriously for a moment, then shook his head and said with understanding: "I can understand. We have been dependent on each other for twenty-five years. During these twenty-five years, we have accompanied each other and relied on each other. This feeling cannot be replaced by anyone. Now I have grown up and have a man I like. If nothing unexpected happens, I will marry him and have children. This will take away more than half of the 100% love I have for you in the past twenty-five years, or even more. If I were you, I would also be anxious, uneasy, jealous, and dislike Li Xiuneng in various ways. This is human nature. You don't need to feel burdened, let alone blame yourself. If I were you, I might have forced you to break up with Li Xiuneng a long time ago."
"Who can break up with Li Xiu?" After hearing this, Gu Jiu suddenly slapped her on the back of the head. The force was not strong, but it still scared Gu Ranle.
"I was just giving you an example. Why did you hit me so hard?" Gu Ranle rubbed his head with a grimace, looking aggrieved.
Gu Jiu stared at Gu Ranle closely, his expression instantly becoming extremely serious. He spoke each word with great emphasis, "If you have really made up your mind and are determined to be with Li Xiuneng, then get engaged first. After that, I will go to your great-grandfather and ask him to calculate an auspicious date to see when it is suitable to get married, and quickly get you two married. You are not young anymore, it is time for you to start a family and live your own life. As for me, I don't ask you to come home every day after you get married. I will be satisfied if you can come home to see me once a week."
After these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the car suddenly became a little sad, as if a faint layer of melancholy was spreading in the air.
Gu Ranle frowned as he listened, looking unhappy. He retorted, "Didn't we agree to let Li Xiu be the son-in-law? Why, now you don't want me to live at home?"
Gu Jiu sighed helplessly and said, "Of course I hope you can live at home forever, but I don't have the final say on this matter. Will the Li family agree? Will Li Xiu agree himself? This is no small matter."
Gu Ranle crossed her arms over her chest, her face full of self-righteousness: "Before we officially started dating, I told him clearly that I would only be with him if he agreed to be a live-in son-in-law. If he didn't agree from the beginning, then none of this would have happened. Even if he really didn't agree, then we should just break up. I still don't believe that I can't find a man who is willing to be a live-in son-in-law in this world? It's hard to find a three-legged toad, but isn't it hard to find a two-legged man?"
Gu Jiu looked at Gu Ranle's stubborn look, feeling both angry and amused, but he also knew in his heart that once this girl made up her mind, no one could pull her back.
"You should discuss this matter with him."
"I'll call him now."
