Thinking of Gu Qiancheng's rejection in the afternoon, the old man didn't want to see her at this time, and wanted to show off to Gu Qiancheng at least once, but...
What if he screwed Gu Qiancheng tonight and Gu Qiancheng used this as an excuse to not come to greet him in the future?
"Please come in, Miss." The old man sighed secretly, both for himself and for Chengzhi.
Chengzhi was really unlucky. He had just gone to look for Qiancheng when someone from Qiancheng came. If he had known about it, he would have let Chengzhi stay a little longer. It would be good for the two siblings to meet each other.
It's a pity that it's hard to buy a thousand pounds. I already knew it.
Gu Qiancheng came in, and through the light in the study, he saw that the old man was getting better and better. The smile on his face did not change, and he respectfully and politely said, "Grandpa."
"Qiancheng is here, hurry up, come forward and show your grandfather." The old man looked happy and squinted his eyes slightly. He looked like a kind grandfather next door, but it was this kind grandfather who sold his own granddaughter in the face of profit.
.
Gu Qiancheng didn't believe that the old man didn't know how dangerous it would be for her to leak the information about "Yi Guo Zhi" to the old emperor and the Changsheng Sect.
Gu Qiancheng really looked down on the old man's snobbery, but he was too lazy to break up with the old man.
She was not afraid of falling out with the Gu family, but she was afraid that if the matter was revealed, the old man would turn around and sell her again, letting both the Eternal Life Sect and the old emperor know that she was on guard.
Suppressing the disgust in his heart, he walked forward slowly and stood in front of the old man across the desk. Before he could speak, the old man said excitedly: "You have lost weight and become darker. You have suffered this time. Wait for that kid Cheng Huan."
When you come back, make sure he kowtows to you to say thank you. You saved his little life. If you hadn't risked his life to go to the northwest, he doesn't know what would have happened."
The old man's words were a double entendre. Although the implication in his words was not obvious, Gu Qiancheng understood it clearly.
However, if the old man didn't point it out, Gu Qiancheng wouldn't say much. He stood there quietly, like a demure girl who is not good at words, but God knows that Gu Qiancheng and the word "demure" have never gone hand in hand.
Gu Qiancheng's lack of cooperation made the old man secretly annoyed by her lack of expression. However, Gu Qiancheng was wronged during the day and the old man couldn't say anything. He could only pull Gu Qiancheng and ask her if she was used to it in the northwest and how Chenghuan was doing in the army.
?
If Qin Jiyan were here, he would have discovered that apart from asking about Cheng Huan, what Mr. Gu asked Qiancheng was exactly the same as what the old emperor asked him; and Gu Qiancheng's obedient and perfunctory response was exactly the same as his.
If there is any difference, it is that Qin Jiyan has always been indifferent, and his cold and arrogant response is a matter of course in the eyes of others, and no one will think twice about it. As for Gu Qiancheng, who should be obedient, it is obvious that he is fooling
.
Singing a one-man show is a very tiring thing. The old man asked all the questions he could and finally couldn't speak anymore. Seeing that the smile on Gu Qiancheng's face was still faint, the old man guessed that it must be related to what happened during the day.
The old man wanted to expose it, but now that he was looking at Qiancheng, the old man had to take the initiative to mention it, "Qiancheng, don't take what happened during the day to your heart. Your father is confused and he doesn't mean any harm."
In this matter, the old man did not dare to fool Qiancheng anymore. So if Gu Qiancheng believed the reason why the servant made a mistake, he would not be unhappy.
"Grandpa, I don't care." Gu Qiancheng answered without any reluctance, because she really didn't care.
"It's okay if you don't care, it's okay if you don't care." I was full of comforting words, but I couldn't say the last sentence.
There was a moment of dead silence in the study. The grandfather and grandson seemed to be unable to find a topic to talk about. Gu Qiancheng stood calmly, but the old man felt a little embarrassed. After thinking about it, he said: "By the way Qiancheng, Chengzhi just left my place.
, said he wanted to see you, did you meet him when you came in? "
"Really? What a coincidence, I didn't meet him when I came here." In fact, Gu Qiancheng saw the person but was too lazy to say hello.
"That's really unfortunate. During your absence, that child has been thinking about you. He calls Sister Qiancheng long and Sister Qiancheng short all day long. My ears are calloused by him." The old man said.
With a cheerful look on his face, he took the initiative to help Gu Chengzhi gain favor.
When Gu Qiancheng heard this, he lowered his head and said nothing...
What do you want her to say?
She is an angry and vindictive person. She still remembers the humiliation that Mrs. Gu, mother and son had inflicted on the original owner and her.
Not to mention that she couldn't like Gu Chengzhi's character. No matter how good Gu Chengzhi's character was, she would not associate with Gu Chengzhi. At most, she would treat him as a stranger and not remember what his mother had done to him.
The old man didn't seem to notice Gu Qiancheng's alienation and continued: "Qiancheng, Chengzhi's child will inherit the family business in the future. No matter you get married or do whatever you do in the future, you will not be able to do without the support of your family brothers. Chengzhi's child has always been
I admire you, teach him more when you have time, your brother and sister will have a better relationship, and it will be a good thing to support each other in the future."
The old man was thinking about Gu Qiancheng inside and out. He clearly wanted Gu Qiancheng to support Gu Chengzhi, but when the words came out of his mouth, it became that Gu Qiancheng had to beg Gu Chengzhi.
What a joke!
Gu Qiancheng originally didn't bother to argue with the old man, but the old man's words really pissed her off.
"Grandpa... your old lady thinks highly of me. Not to mention that I don't have the ability to support Chengzhi. Even if I have that ability, I don't have that magnanimity. Chengzhi and my half-siblings are truly related to each other.
We are relatives, but thinking about what his mother did, I was kind by not suppressing him. Want me to support him? Dream on!"
"You...how can you be so heartless? Chengzhi is your brother, and it will be good for you to help him." The old man covered his heart, looking furious.
If it were in the past, Gu Qiancheng would definitely step forward to help the old man, and no matter what happened, he would not be angry with the old man again, but...
Gu Qiancheng seemed to have seen nothing today and continued: "Grandpa, you underestimated me before and thought of sacrificing me if something happened. Now, you think too highly of me. Although I have to protect myself,
I have the ability, but I don’t have the ability to help the Gu family. I won’t care about Chengzhi’s affairs.”
"Chengzhi is just a child. What does the previous generation's affairs have to do with him?" The old man knew that Gu Qiancheng was targeting Chengzhi. If she really didn't care about the Gu family, she would not cultivate Chenghuan and Chengyi.
"What happened to the previous generation has nothing to do with him, does it have to do with me? Grandfather, don't you know what life was like for me in those early years? A child? I was also a child at that time, but who said I was innocent?"
Gu Qiancheng was unmoved. Seeing that the old man still refused to give up, Gu Qiancheng said again: "Grandpa, if you want to blame him, it's because he was unlucky and was reborn in that woman's belly. If he was the son of the third aunt or the second aunt,
Fortunately, I will give you a hand. Now... you have to be happy that I still have the Gu family in my heart and have not ruined the Gu family's heir."
"You, you..." Unlike just pretending, the old man was really angry this time.
Gu Qiancheng still ignored him. After saying this, Yingying bowed: "Grandpa, it's getting late, so I won't disturb your rest."
After saying that, he turned around and walked out, ignoring the old man's shouts.
However, as soon as the door opened, Gu Qiancheng saw...
