"You're still not up? How long are you going to keep pretending to be asleep for?" Guan Jingyi rubbed the hair on Xu Anran's forehead.
Xu Anran extended her hand, but did not open her eyes, randomly pushed, and just happened to touch Guan Jingyi's chin, which was a little stiff. It was also a clear indication of the difference between the two.
To Guan Jingyi, the early morning clash was like a fire.
"Can't I close my eyes and rest? It's very important to a girl. " Xu Anran was embarrassed, she randomly searched for an excuse.
Guan Jingyi's gaze, however, was fixated on a large piece of smooth and unconcealed skin in front of her chest. She was wearing a sleeveless nightgown of the conservative kind, but because she was restless at night, one of the straps slipped off, revealing half of his bare shoulders and half of his flabby breasts with their undulating curves.
"What are you looking at?" Xu Anran rubbed her hair, confused. After all, it was hard to find someone like Guan Jingyi who was in a daze.
Guan Jingyi used all of his self-restraint and turned his head to the side. He stood up somewhat embarrassedly, and paid attention to the topic: "About that, quickly go wash up, I'll bring you over there in a while."
"Ugh." Xu Anran took a robe and put it on, and without noticing that sshe had left, he walked unsteadily into the bathroom. Xu Anran woke up too early today, so she was a little out of sleep.
"Sleep for a while if you're tired. We're almost there, I'll call you." Guan Jingyi said to Xu Anran who was seated in the back row. Guan Jingyi had only noticed today that he had been sitting at the back of the car the entire time. Even these few times, it was always Guan Jingyi who drove. Today, he temporarily thought that she was tired and wanted to go to the back to rest. But the previous few times, when he thought of it like this, Guan Jingyi habitually frowned. This little girl always had wild thoughts.
Xu Anran acknowledged her presence, and nodded her head. She then shrank down, placed both of her hands on her chest and fell asleep.
Guan Jingyi looked at her sleeping posture through the front mirror and smiled. What kind of sleeping posture was this?
"To think that our Fourth Master would still have the ability to come to my place." Guan Jingyi entered the room carrying the gift box as he followed behind him. The old woman sitting on the sofa spoke with a reserved manner.
Guan Jingyi raised his eyebrows and laughed: "My wife came here specifically to visit you." Saying that, Guan Jingyi handed the box over to the servant behind him.
Anyone with a discerning eye would be able to tell that Cui Yun was causing trouble for no reason.
"This time, I came to pick up Guan Lifeng." Guan Jingyi continued.
"Why did you pick him up? Old Fourth, don't go too far, you have beaten up Li Feng Ren, and smashed the bar, I have already told the old man about this, I still haven't said that I would punish you for your crimes, yet you still refuse to forgive me. " Hearing that this matter was related to Guan Lifeng, Cui Yun could no longer sit still. If it was before, she might have been able to say it quickly, but now, she was truly angry, and pointed at Guan Jingyi, trembling uncontrollably.
"Then from what you're saying, the person isn't willing to hand it over, even if I'm following the old man's orders?"
After Cui Yun heard this, she slumped onto the sofa.
Guan Jingyi continued to speak: "You don't have to worry too much, I'm just bringing you to the army to train for a few years."
It was fine that Guan Jingyi did not say anything, but how would Cui Yun be willing to do that? How could her darling grandson endure the hardships of the army, and was even taken away by Guan Jingyi, a person with a cold face, if she were to hand her big grandson over to him, would she be able to see him in front of his in his lifetime?
Cui Yun swept the teacups on the table away, and said with hatred: "I won't allow it, even if I have to make Li Feng join the army, I still don't agree, and will be escorted by you."
Guan Jingyi gave a cold snort, "Heh heh, this is not up to you."
After saying that, a few bodyguards in black uniforms jumped out of the door and rushed to the second floor.
However, even after quite a long time had passed, there was still no movement on the second floor.
Guan Jingyi turned around to look at Xu Anran, and said: "I'll go take a look."
Xu Anran acknowledged twice, then nodded towards Guan Jingyi.
After Guan Jingyi went up, only Xu Anran and Cui Yun were left in the living room.
He only heard Cui Yun say: "There really is a mother and there is no son. Look, her mother passed away after giving birth to him for three years. Those years in the orphanage, no one had any education at all! "
When Cui Yun said these words, Xu Anran immediately became furious: "Cui — — Aunt Cui, how can you say that about Brother Yi?"
Xu Anran had always thought that Guan Jingyi was born in a wealthy family and was not worried about food or clothing since he was young. Seeing how doted his grandfather was on him, she had always thought that he was a young master who was pampered and lost in thought. Unexpectedly, this was not the case.
One could tell from Cui Yun's attitude towards him and his young mother that he had been looked down upon and ignored by her countless times when she was young. She was even sent to an orphanage!
How could Xu Anran not feel pain in her heart?
"Why can't I say anything about him, having a mother and not a son!" Cui Yun continued.
"No matter what you say, you are still an elder of the Brother Yi. If I didn't hear you say these things myself, I absolutely cannot believe it. Guan Jingyi is the Fourth Young Master of the Guan Family, this is something that Grandfather admitted personally. Similarly, he is also our Xu Family's legitimate son-in-law, anyone who dares to speak ill of him, our Xu Family will be the first to reject! "
These were the hardest words that Xu Anran had ever said, in order to protect Guan Jingyi.
When Guan Jingyi went downstairs, he saw that Xu Anran's eyes were filled with tears.
It was the first time Guan Jingyi was protected by a woman, and the feeling was not bad.
