At this time, Liu Chen was sitting leisurely in the villa, closing his eyes and relaxing.
It's been a lot of exertion on him lately, and he hasn't been able to get a good rest.
And the reason why I have been closing my eyes to rest my mind is because I am about to face unknown troubles, which is quite a headache.
It is not yet certain whether the Shangguan royal family are enemies or friends.
It is even very possible that this will be a Hongmen Banquet.
At this moment, the old housekeeper of the Gu family walked in: "Master, Ma Xingyan would like to see you."
Hearing this person's name, Gu Qiqi frowned immediately.
She really doesn't like Ma Xingyan, but she is engaged to this annoying person.
"Grandpa, when can we dissolve our engagement with the Ma family? I really don't like Ma Xingyan, he is so annoying."
Gu Qiqi frowned with undisguised disgust.
Although Gu Jun felt sorry for his granddaughter, his family interests did not allow him to do something he shouldn't have done.
"You also know that the Ma family and the Shangguan royal family are very close, and our Gu family does not want to offend the Ma family."
Gu Jun sighed and said: "Not to mention such a big event as dissolving the marriage, it will definitely anger the Ma family."
It is precisely because of this that even though he loves his granddaughter very much, he cannot let Gu Qiqi have his way.
Not to mention that if Gu Qiqi didn't like Ma Xingyan, he would have to break off the engagement.
At least, not now.
Gu Qiqi said sadly: "Our Gu family does not have half-step god realm experts now, and the power of the Ma family cannot be said to be on the same level as them."
"I just...have to get married?"
Ma Xingyan is not a good person at all, even if he seems to be so infatuated with her on the surface, he threatens her not to marry him.
But being with such a chauvinistic person will not only lead to no freedom, but also no happiness.
Although, Gu Qiqi knew very well that as a woman from a big family, she had no right to choose.
Especially when it comes to the important matter of marriage.
Gu Jun looked bitter and felt very sorry for his granddaughter, but he had to say: "Why does grandpa want you to marry her? It's just that the current situation does not allow grandpa to do this."
Seeing her grandfather's eyes red, Gu Qiqi could only nod her head and say nothing more.
"Let that boy come in!"
Gu Jun calmed down his granddaughter before speaking to the housekeeper.
Not long after, Ma Xingyan was brought in by the housekeeper.
"Xingyan has met Grandpa Gu!"
Ma Xingyan's attitude towards Gu Jun was still extremely respectful.
After all, Gu Jun is the head of the Gu family, so he still needs to have this etiquette.
"How is your grandpa?"
Gu Jun asked politely.
"Grandpa comes here and is at peace. Please take care of me."
Ma Xingyan said: "I am coming back from outside today and happened to stop by to visit you!"
"Okay, then come and sit."
Gu Jun asked him to come over and sit down.
Ma Xingyan nodded, walked over, looked at Gu Qiqi, and said with a smile: "Qiqi, we meet again!"
Gu Qiqi didn't have a good look towards him. She rolled her eyes at him and ignored him.
"Grandpa, besides coming to visit you today, there is one more thing I want to discuss with you."
Ma Xingyan suddenly said: "It's my grandfather's birthday. I hope to get married to Qi Qi before my grandfather's birthday."
As soon as these words came out, Gu Jun still didn't respond, and Gu Qiqi suddenly became anxious.
She originally wanted to break off her engagement with Ma Xingyan, but she was just waiting for an opportunity. How could she expect to get married to Ma Xingyan in advance.
