In her previous life, ever since Ning Anlan had slept with Xiao Wen, he had thoroughly offended the Gu family. The violent Gu Xian'er had been rude to her many times, only now did she remember that the Gu family had an Gu Xian'er.
When Old Master Gu mentioned Gu Xian'er, Wan Xiurou felt her temples throbbing. She had told Gu Xian'er two days ago that the ancient city was coming back, so she had to be there. In the end, she still disappeared early in the morning.
"Dad, Xian'er has a lot of classes in the school recently. She won't be able to come back until later."
Wan Xiu-Ru smiled awkwardly at the ancient city after she finished speaking. She couldn't possibly say that she didn't know where her daughter was.
"Mm, as long as it's serious." Old Man Gu nodded. He didn't really care what Gu Xian'er went to do, but whether she was serious or not, as long as it was serious, everything was fine.
Compared to his granddaughter, he was more concerned about the ancient city, the grandson with high hopes.
After dealing with the situation, Wan Xueruo was relieved. She thought that she would call her daughter later and ask her daughter to come back to her home with an excuse.
"An Lan, what did your family say?" Suddenly called by Old Master Gu, Ning Anlan raised his head, his head already spinning rapidly.
Since Old Man Gu had already promised to postpone the engagement, Ning Anlan naturally wouldn't cause him any trouble. Although he knew Ning Bo definitely wanted the marriage to be finalized as soon as possible, Ning Anlan didn't want it to be as he wished.
"I don't have any thoughts at home, I'll listen to grandpa." Ning Anlan said, making Old Master Gu happy.
He listened to everything and this made him even more satisfied with Ning Anlan. After all, he liked to control everything. Ning Anlan's words were also to his liking, and he was even more satisfied with Ning Anlan.
The ancient city was busy picking up dishes for the old man, looking at Ning Anlan without a trace. She had previously said that she would sign some sort of cooperation agreement, but now she didn't have any more ideas?
What was she planning? The ancient city could not figure it out now, and always felt as if she was shrouded in a layer of mist.
After the meal, Ning Anlan wanted to find an opportunity to hint at the ancient city and bring her away as soon as possible. The old gramps called the ancient city into his study.
Ning Anlan didn't think too much about it. He just sat in the living room and took out his phone. The old gramps must be looking for the ancient city to discuss business, it had nothing to do with him.
These days, her mind was filled with too many things. Unlike in the past, she only needed to admire the flowers and play the piano, allowing her to live a relaxed life every day.
If you carry a lot of things on your back, your mood will become heavy.
She felt like a puppet, led by the nose by some things she had to do.
Ning Anlan understood this very well. If he wanted to obtain something, he would have to lose something. It was because he lived too simply in his previous life that he would end up like this.
Opening up the financial news she hated most, wanting to take over the company as soon as possible, she forced herself to watch for half an hour every day.
The change in Ning Bo's attitude towards her was unclear. She didn't know if it was genuine or fake, but she had to be careful. She couldn't allow Fu Yajing and Fu Yiyi to play around with her in the end.
"Who are you? "Why are you at my house?"
While he was engrossed in the story, Ning Anlan heard a light female voice. He raised his head and saw that it was a familiar face.
He saw Gu Xian'er, dressed in a small dress and holding the latest Chanel bag, looking at her without blinking.
Upstairs in the study.
"Ah Cheng, there are some things I have to remind you of." The old man sat on a chair with his back straight, his expression extremely solemn.
"Grandfather, if you have something to say, then just say it. I'll listen to you." The ancient city sat across from the desk and handed a cup of tea to the old man.
"There was a rumor that you didn't marry because you liked men." The old man couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth, "However, I believe in my grandson. You didn't disappoint me as expected."
The ancient city slightly lowered its head. "Grandpa, what are you doing listening to these rumors?"
"We can ignore it, but we can't stop others from talking about it. If we talk too much, we can also kill people without seeing blood." Pausing for a moment, the old man continued, "The matter between you and An Lan at the hotel last time was a bit too much."
When this matter was brought up, the pressure on Ancient City's head lowered even more. "Grandpa, I will take care of my manners, don't worry."
It had been an accident that time. He didn't want to see Ning Anlan surrounded by those people the next morning, so he had stood up.
Fortunately, the Gu family and the Ning family had an engagement, so this matter didn't affect their reputation.
"Has there been any reaction from An Lan's body during this period of time?"
His sudden words almost made the ancient city spit out a mouthful of tea. He finally understood what the old man meant and his face immediately blushed.
That night, it was an accident. He didn't use any contraception, but seeing Ning Anlan's calm appearance, he shouldn't be pregnant, right?
"Grandfather, you're overthinking it." The ancient city lowered its head, not expecting the old man to suddenly ask such an embarrassing question.
Downstairs.
As soon as Gu Xian'er entered the living room, she was called over by Wan Xiurou.
"Xian'er, this is your cousin's fiancee, Ning Anlan. I've told you before, come quickly and greet your future sister-in-law."
Ning Anlan raised his head calmly. "Hello, Miss Gu." With that, he closed his mouth, not intending to say anything more.
"Oh, it's Elder Sister An Lan. Sorry, sorry. My eyes were dim and I didn't recognize you just now." When Gu Xian'er heard the three words' Ning Anlan ', she was surprised for a moment. She immediately put on a smile, and her little face turned bright and bright.
Ning Anlan smiled politely. She really didn't know Gu Xian'er, so she naturally wouldn't act that intimate.
Seeing Ning Anlan's cold attitude, Gu Xian'er curled her lips. She didn't want to bring ridicule upon herself, so after saying a few words to Wan Xiuran, she turned and went upstairs.
She was in a good mood today, having fun with her best friend, except … Gu Xian'er knitted her brows, stealthily turning her head to glance at Ning Anlan.
"I didn't expect the Old Master to look so satisfied with Miss Ning." The two maids talked together as they cleaned the room.
"That's right, you haven't seen Miss Ning, she's just too beautiful. Her every move is like a fairy and she's also very polite. Her family is fine, who wouldn't like her? Furthermore, she's very compatible with Young Master."
The other maid also agreed. It wasn't that they hadn't seen a lady before, but it was really their first time seeing someone as noble as Ning Anlan, who was like a fairy from a private room.
"Hmm, that's true, but I really didn't expect there to be someone in this world that could match up to the ancient city's young master. It really isn't easy."
The two maids said without saying a word, completely unaware that Gu Xian'er was standing not far away, staring straight at them.
