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

It was late at night and everything was silent. Gu Ranle pressed the dial button and called Li Xiuneng.

On the other end of the phone, a connection tone sounded almost instantly, as if the other party had been waiting by the phone, ready to connect with her at any time.

Gu Ranle couldn't help but smile gently in her heart. She could imagine that if she hadn't made this call tonight, Li Xiuneng would probably be holding the phone, tossing and turning, and gradually falling asleep.

"It's so late, why haven't you rested yet?" Gu Ranle's voice was filled with a hint of tenderness mixed with concern and blame.

"Of course I'm waiting for your call." Li Xiuneng's answer was simple and direct, but revealed endless dependence and expectation.

His voice was a little dull, as if hiding some subtle grievance, "You ignored me all day, do you... do you not love me anymore?"

Hearing this, Gu Ranle curled up the corners of her mouth with a mischievous smile, and deliberately teased him, "Well, you guessed right, I have fallen in love with someone else, a man who is even more handsome than you."

There was a sudden silence on the other end of the phone, as if even the air had frozen.

Gu Ranle raised an eyebrow, secretly amused, but couldn't help asking, "What's wrong? Are you too sad to speak?"

After a long while, Li Xiuneng's voice, choked with sobs, slowly came out: "I feel bad, I'm crying!"

Gu Ranle frowned slightly, her concern evident in her words: "Why do you sound like you have a cold? Why is your voice so nasal?"

There was a sniffling sound from the other end of the phone, followed by Li Xiuneng's slightly angry words: "Can't I be crying because I'm sad?"

Hearing this, Gu Ranle's heart softened, and she quickly apologized, "Okay, okay, it's my fault. I've been so busy all day that I didn't even have time to call you or send you a message. It's all my fault. I'm so sorry for letting Aunt Li feel left out. Aunt Li, please be magnanimous and forgive me this time. Don't hold it against me. If you cry, I'll feel even more guilty and remorseful."

Li Xiuneng hummed softly on the other end of the phone, seemingly satisfied with Gu Ranle's apology, but then made a new request: "Then you have to say that you love me, and only me in this life."

Hearing this, Gu Ranle's lips curled up into a sly smile. "That's unrealistic. I still have my grandfather, and we will have children in the future. How could I possibly love only you? You can't be too selfish. You have to learn to share and tolerate, understand?"

Li Xiuneng thought for a moment, then compromised and said, "Then tell me, the person you love the most is me."

Gu Ranle smiled and said, "Okay, you're the one I love the most. That's fine, right?"

I thought these sweet words would satisfy Li Xiu, but he immediately made a new request: "Come pick me up tomorrow morning. We'll be engaged, and then I can live with you openly."

The tone was full of anticipation, as if they couldn't wait to start living together.

Gu Ranle sighed helplessly and patiently persuaded him, "With your current physical condition, even if you live together, there are many things you can't do. Don't keep thinking about those things. It's not too late to talk about these things when you are fully recovered."

Li Xiuneng's anger instantly flared up when he heard this. He raised his voice and said, "Who are you looking down on? I just can't move my legs for the time being. There's nothing wrong with me anywhere else! Do you dare to try now?"

The eager and somewhat childish rebuttal made Gu Ranle angry and amused.

She quickly comforted him, "I'm a coward. I don't dare, and I can't do it. Just focus on recuperating first. When you're well, we have plenty of time. I'll do whatever you want then."

These words finally calmed down Li Xiuneng, who was furious on the other end of the phone.

The two chatted for a long time before reluctantly ending the call.

All the experiences of this day were like a tangled mess, entangled in Gu Ranle's heart, making her feel extremely exhausted.

After she took a comfortable hot bath and lay lazily on the soft bed, she thought she would fall asleep quickly, but her thoughts were like a wild horse that could not be stopped.

The scene in the mysterious well kept appearing in her mind, and questions came flooding in like a tide.

Who created everything in the well?

What was the purpose of the builders in creating such a mysterious place?

During her time in the well, she didn't encounter any living creatures, but that didn't mean there wasn't life there.

Perhaps, there are some mysterious existences hiding quietly in the dark, but she has never been lucky enough to see them.

What puzzled her even more was that when she and her bodyguard went downstairs, the metal door was clearly closed.

However, when they finally reached the pool, they found that Zhou Xiaoliu's drone had been "waiting for a long time" at the bottom of the pool.

Where did this drone come from?

Her attention had been drawn to other things before, and she had completely overlooked this key detail.

Now that I think about it carefully, there are really too many puzzling things.

And there is Gu Xiaohei, who is like a mysterious ghost, suddenly disappearing without a trace, and then suddenly appearing at some unexpected moment.

All of this was like a thick fog, shrouding Gu Ranle's heart, making her toss and turn, unable to fall asleep.

She was extremely anxious and wanted to call Zhou Xiaoliu immediately to resolve all the doubts in her heart.

However, reason quickly brought her back to reality - it was already late at night, Zhou Xiaoliu must have fallen asleep long ago, and it would be inappropriate to disturb him at this time.

But if she didn't get to the bottom of it, those mysteries would gnaw at her heart like little bugs, making it impossible for her to fall asleep.

She tossed and turned in bed like a pancake, and two hours passed in vain. She no longer felt sleepy, but her irritability grew.

Helpless, Gu Ranle simply stood up and walked straight to the study.

She knew very well that when she was upset, the only way to calm down was to immerse herself in the world of books.

She picked up a medical notebook, curled up in the soft sofa, and read it carefully word by word.

The words in the book seemed to have a magical power that gradually calmed the waves in her heart.

Time slips away quietly between the turning pages of books. Before we know it, the sky in the east is already turning pale and a new day is quietly approaching.

She gently closed the book in her hand, stood up, stretched her body, and stretched comfortably.

Just then, the sound of Grandpa Gu Jiu getting up and going downstairs was heard outside.

"Master, when are we going to the Li family?" She leaned out of the study and asked Gu Jiu downstairs.

Gu Jiu turned around when he heard the voice, his eyes fell on her, and his brows knitted instantly, "You didn't sleep all night?"

The old man knew her too well, and she couldn't hide her little thoughts from him at all.

Seeing that she couldn't hide it, Gu Ranle nodded honestly, "I tossed and turned in bed for more than two hours. I couldn't fall asleep, so I got up and read a book."

Gu Jiu snorted coldly, "Come downstairs and tell me what happened yesterday!"
