The villain is too crazy, the little ancestor is not going to do it anymore

"Master, it's so late, why haven't you slept yet? Elderly people shouldn't stay up late. Don't you know the harm of staying up late? Go back to sleep quickly and stop messing around here, lest you ruin your body!"

Without giving Gu Jiu a chance to speak, Gu Ranle took the initiative, with a hint of guilty ridicule in her tone.

Gu Jiu didn't say anything, but his eyes, like sharp blades flashing coldly in the cold night, stared at her coldly as if he contained a knife, as if he wanted to see through the secrets deep in her heart.

That gaze was as real as a substance, causing Gu Ranle to feel uneasy for no reason.

Gu Ranle opened his mouth, wanting to talk some more, and pretended to be calm, "You old man, I'm talking to you, why are you pretending to be deaf and dumb? Staying up late at night is very bad for someone your age!"

Gu Jiu suddenly became furious, like a volcano about to erupt. He suddenly reached into the car window and grabbed her ear with such force that it seemed as if he wanted to pull her ear off.

He gnashed his teeth and roared, "You little bastard, if I don't punish you for three days, you'll tear the tiles off the roof, right? Where have you been today? What have you been doing? If you don't tell me everything, I'll beat you to pieces!"

The sound echoed in the night sky like thunder, shaking the surrounding leaves.

"Hiss—it hurts, it hurts!" Gu Ranle yelled with his teeth bared, flapping his hands like a frightened little animal. "Old man, it hurts! My ear is going to fall off! Be gentle!"

"Old man..."

The bodyguard following Gu Ranle also got out of the car at this time, and came to Gu Jiu tremblingly, with his head lowered, not daring to breathe, as if every breath would bring about an even more violent storm.

Gu Jiu turned around and shouted at them, "You guys wait here too! I told you to watch her, but where did you get her to? If you can't even watch over a person, what's the point of having you here? Are you all just here to eat and eat for free?"

The angry roar made the bodyguards tremble even more violently. Their foreheads were covered with cold sweat, which kept dripping down their cheeks.

The more Gu Jiu thought about it, the angrier he became. His chest heaved violently, as if a ball of fire was burning in his chest.

He released the hand that was pulling Gu Ranle's ear, but slammed the car window again, "Get out of the car!"

That voice carried unquestionable majesty.

Gu Ranle frowned and said pitifully, "It'll take a long time to walk back. I'm so tired. Grandpa, how about you get in the car and I'll take you to the door?"

"You still feel tired? I see you are full of energy every day! You just run outside all day long, never resting! Get out of the car!" Gu Jiu's eyes widened with anger, and his voice became a few degrees higher.

Gu Ranle curled her lips, not daring to disobey her grandfather's order, and got out of the car obediently.

The main reason was that I had done something wrong today. I ran away secretly without reporting to him. I felt very guilty and lacked confidence at the moment, so I didn't dare to confront him.

She knew in her heart that if she talked back again, she would be beaten.

After getting out of the car, she immediately took Gu Jiu's arm and tried to change the subject with a flattering smile on her face: "Master, did the engagement go smoothly today? How was it? Is the Li family sincere enough? If not, let them come again."

As she spoke, she secretly observed Gu Jiu's expression, praying in her heart that her grandfather could be distracted and stop harping on the fact that she went out today.

"You still know you're getting engaged today?" Gu Jiu's eyes widened with anger, a sneer hanging on the corner of his mouth, that sneer full of ridicule and anger, "This is the first time I've heard of only one party being present at an engagement!"

Gu Ranle curled her lips, her eyes rolling around, and she quickly approached with a playful smile: "Grandpa, look at what you're saying. Aren't you here too? You're my grandpa, the head of our family. When you sit there, that aura, that weight, represents our family, and also represents me. How can you say that only one party is present? By the way, Grandpa, has the wedding date been set? When can Li Xiuneng come to visit? Otherwise, tomorrow he and I will go get the marriage certificate, make a quick decision, have the wedding night early, and try to give you a great-grandson to play with, so that you can enjoy the joy of family life."

After saying that, he blinked and looked at Gu Jiu expectantly.

"Snapped!"

A crisp and loud sound exploded in the silent atmosphere, and in response to Gu Ranle's ridiculous words, Gu Jiu slapped him hard.

This slap, delivered with such fury, caused a burning pain on the back of Gu Ranle's head.

"Quick and decisive! Do you think marriage is a child's game? Marriage is such a big deal, how can you treat it like a joke!" Gu Jiu was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, his chest heaving violently, and he looked as if he wanted to eat Gu Ranle alive.

Gu Ranle pouted in grievance, tears welling up in her eyes as she sobbed, "If it's not true, then it's not true. Why did you hit me so hard? If you hit me again, I'll be stupid."

"You—" Gu Jiu raised his hand again, his eyes burning with anger. However, looking at Gu Ranle's pitiful appearance, he gritted his teeth and slowly lowered it. "Tomorrow, you and I will go to the Li family to apologize in person! We must let the Li family see our sincerity!"

"Oh." Gu Ranle hung her head, but she was worried. Could it be that because she wasn't home today, the engagement had fallen through? What should she do? Did Li Xiuneng think she didn't want to marry him? He mustn't let his imagination run wild.

"Master, can Li Xiu come to our house tonight?" Gu Ranle asked cautiously, his eyes full of anticipation mixed with a hint of uneasiness.

"He's not here!" Gu Jiu responded unhappily, frowning, obviously still angry about what happened during the day.

"Oh." Gu Ranle hung his head, thinking to himself: The engagement probably really isn't going on, otherwise the old man wouldn't be so angry.

Alas, it’s all my fault. I completely forgot about the important matter of engagement.

Moreover, Li Xiuneng didn't call her once throughout the day, which was very abnormal.

With his usual clingy personality, he would contact her the first time at the slightest sign of trouble. It seemed that he was really angry this time.

Gu Ranle was also feeling panicked at this moment.

"Master, the sooner the better. Why don't we go to the Li family and apologize now? I've caused such a big disaster. I won't be able to sleep tonight if I don't apologize." Gu Ranle said anxiously, his eyes full of sincerity.

Gu Jiu ignored her, but coldly ordered the security captain to drive her back, and then let Gu Ranle walk back by herself to reflect on her mistakes.

After Gu Jiu left, Gu Ranle quickly took out his cell phone and prepared to call Li Xiuneng.

Only then did I realize that my phone had run out of battery and turned off at some point.

She was extremely anxious and quickly borrowed a power bank from the bodyguard.

After turning on the phone, many text message notifications popped up on the screen, as well as reminders of missed calls, a total of dozens.

She flipped through the messages one by one. The most recent one was from Li Xiuneng five minutes ago: [Baoer, why are you ignoring me? We just got engaged today and you're already ignoring me. You don't love me anymore, right? It's true, you don't cherish what you've got!]
