Looking at Xu Tong's face full of tears, Gu Li looked at her with some distrust. He was doubting the truth of Xu Tong's words. Because he had a criminal record, he didn't believe Xu Tong's words.
It seems that he saw Gu Li's doubt. Xu Tong immediately said, "Gu Li, we have known each other for so many years. How did I treat you? Can't you feel it? What's more, I was spoiled since childhood. Even if it was really done by my mother, she was just wronged because she couldn't see me. Do you want to teach my mother a lesson because of this?"
After all, she is her mother. Xu Tong will certainly protect some. Although she thinks her mother's technique is too childish, since everything has happened, she must find a way to stop it and try not to make things worse.
"Xu Tong, I said we were about to get engaged. Whether it has anything to do with you or not, I want to remind you again. If you continue to do this, don't blame me for canceling the engagement. I married you just because I don't want to see Grandpa sad, but if I really don't marry you, my grandpa won't say anything."
"So think it over for yourself and don't do anything wrong. My patience has limits“
Gu Li's face was cold. This was his last reminder to Xu Tong. If there were another time, he would not worry so much.
Standing not far away, Xu Tong listened to Gu Li's words clearly. He was both happy and sad. Happily, Gu Li was not investigating the matter, and they would still listen to the engagement; but it was sad that although they would be engaged, Gu Li still didn't love her.
Now it's more straightforward to say that he agreed to get engaged because his grandfather had no relationship with her, which is undoubtedly a great blow to a proud woman like Xu Tong.
Struggling to bear the pain in his heart, Xu Tong looked at Gu Li, "Gu Li, I really don't know what's better about that Qiao Nuan than me? She's married and even has children. Why can't you forget her?"
"You can never compare with her!"
Leaving such a sentence, Gu Li turned and left Gu's house. The original quiet old house became more silent because of Gu Li's departure.
Xu Tong stood alone in the living room for a long time, and then left with a smile. But the laughter made people feel sad, and more unwilling.
After returning to Xu's house, Mrs. Xu immediately came up, "Xiao Tong, what are you doing at home so late? You and Gu Li..."
"That's enough! I'm tired. I want to sleep."
Without waiting for her mother's reaction, she walked straight in front of her and went back to the room, leaving Mrs. Xu alone in a daze. She didn't know what had happened to her daughter?
……
In the next few days, Joe felt a lot more peaceful when he was warm. No one bothered her anymore. Even Gu Li didn't appear in front of her. She thought that the two people should be busy with their engagement.
In fact, on that day, she handed over those people to Gu Li and asked him to deal with the matter. It didn't mean to blame him. She just wanted him to make it clear with Xu Tong and let her not trouble herself. Later, Qiao Nuan heard that those people were sent to prison by Gu Li, and everyone was sentenced to several years, which helped Qiao warm up.
But Qiao Nuan was not so happy. Although it was time to be punished, she was still a little uncomfortable. She couldn't tell what was the specific reason.
He shook his head, threw away all those superfluous ideas, looked at the computer and smiled at the corners of his mouth.
For several days in a row, the comments on her novels on the Internet have become better and better, and more and more people have read them. Many people comment at the bottom every day.
"How abusive! When will the male and female masters be happy together?"
"The female Lord is so poor. How can the male Lord be so cruel?"
“……”
There are countless comments like this.
But everyone only thought it was a novel, and never thought it was adapted from Qiao Nuan's own personal experience. If you knew, it would surprise all readers.
When he was looking hard, the door of the office knocked. Qiao Nuan subconsciously closed the web page, looked up and said, "what's the matter?"
"Mr. Gu said he wanted to see you. He's downstairs." Xi Yuan opened his mouth. Although he was a little surprised at Mr. Gu's intention, he still informed Qiao Nuan. As for whether to see or not, it was Qiao Nuan's choice.
For Mr. Gu, Qiao Nuan is still very fond of him, "bring him up quickly."
Xi Yuan turned out of the office and soon brought Mr. Gu into the office. Then he helped the two close the door and turned away.
Seeing Gu's son, Qiao Nuan hurried up. "Sit down, old man." he asked him to sit down and poured him a glass of water.
"Xiao Nuan, don't be so polite between us. I always treat you as my granddaughter. If you don't dislike it, you can call me Grandpa." in fact, at the beginning, he always treated Qiao Nuan as his granddaughter-in-law.
It's just a pity that she finally married Lu Beiye and had no fate with her grandson.
Suddenly hearing what Gu said, Qiao Nuan must be a little shocked. He didn't react until a moment later, "how can I dislike you, grandpa!"
"Ah!" cried Qiao Nuan, and he agreed. They looked at each other and smiled.
"Grandpa, why do you want to come and see me today? I thought..." at this point, Qiao Nuan didn't go on. She thought that Grandpa Gu was not so close to her because she didn't have a relationship with Gu Li.
Now it seems that she thinks too much.
Qiao Nuan didn't finish his words, but the old man could guess some, "Xiao Nuan, grandpa came today to invite you to my grandson's engagement dinner on Sunday."
Then the old man took out an invitation from him. Qiao Nuan took it. It was different from Xu Tong's. it said that her identity was the man's family member and participated as Gu Li's sister. It was obviously more satisfactory to her than Xu Tong's.
"I thought you weren't going to invite me, Grandpa."
Qiao Nuan couldn't help joking. Almost the whole city of Los Angeles knew about the engagement banquet between Gu and Xu. If Gu Li or Gu didn't send her an invitation today, she would certainly not attend. After all, she and Xu Tong were really unfamiliar. She couldn't accept participating as a woman's family member.
But now, she has nothing to worry about.
When Grandpa Gu heard Qiao Nuan say this, he couldn't help laughing and stared at Qiao Nuan, "grandpa can't invite you. It's just that Gu's home and abroad are very busy these days, but it's a little late, which makes you think so much. It's also grandpa's fault."
In fact, he was going to ask Gu Li to send an invitation to Qiao Nuan, but he thought that Xu Tong had decided to come by himself because of their relationship.
He is old and really doesn't want to see two people quarrel.
"Grandpa, I'm joking with you. I knew you wouldn't forget me." Qiao Nuan smiled, and the atmosphere was very good.
After laughing for a while, Gu's face became serious, as if he thought of something unhappy, "Xiao Nuan, although Gu Li is about to get engaged, grandpa is unhappy!"
"Grandpa, why?" seeing Gu's unhappy appearance, Qiao Nuan couldn't help asking. Isn't this Gu's wish all the time? How can you be unhappy?
Mr. Gu sighed, "in fact, I know that Gu Li agreed to be engaged to Xu Tong because of me. He didn't want to see me disappointed, so he agreed to be engaged. I thought it was for his good, but now... I began to doubt whether it was right to do so?"
After feeling that there was no hope for Qiao Nuan and Gu Li, he began to introduce his girlfriend to his grandson, but he could see that his grandson only liked Qiao Nuan. Now he was engaged to Xu Tong, but he was not happy.
So he is now struggling. Should he make his grandson happy or continue to let him start a family? This is a problem, and it is a very serious problem.
"This..." I didn't expect that Gu Laozi was unhappy because of this. Qiao Nuan didn't know what to say for a while. More importantly, she felt that nothing she said was appropriate! Now she and Gu Li are at most ordinary friends. She still can't talk nonsense.
Qiao Nuan didn't say it, but Gu knew what she was worried about. "Xiao Nuan, since you call me Grandpa, it's Gu Li's sister. Just say what you want to say. Just talk as a family. I won't think much."
Qiao Nuan will have concerns. Mr. Gu knows that after all, her identity is really embarrassing.
But now he really looks like looking for a person to discuss. There is no other candidate. He can only come to Qiao Nuan.
It's not because of anything else, just because he believes that Qiao Nuan also wants Gu Li to be happy. Moreover, by contrast, Qiao Nuan also knows Gu Li, and it's most appropriate to find her.
"Grandpa, since you have said so, wouldn't I disappoint you if I didn't say something." Qiao Nuan smiled bitterly. In fact, she really didn't want to say anything. After all, it's the business of Gu Li and Xu Tong. As an outsider, she seems to say nothing.
However, seeing the old man like this, it's estimated that it's hard to feel in my heart. Otherwise, how can I come to chat with myself? Still talking about Gu Li, I guess I hesitated at home for a long time.
After thinking for a while, Qiao Wencai said, "Grandpa, do you think it's important for Gu Li to be happy or for him to get married?"
