At this time, the smile on the old lady's face dimmed.

How can she feel at ease when she is innocent?

There is no hope for men and women if they are innocent!

Noticing the change in the old lady's smile, Gu Jinlan thought she didn't believe him, so he explained:

"Really! I really don't like him, and I have absolutely no intentions towards him! The main reason we are so close now is because of Ranran."

Seeing that Gu Jinlan was so anxious to cut off ties with Shi Ye, the smile on Old Madam Shi's face could no longer be maintained.

That boy is all show and no substance!

It's been so long, but Gu Jinlan still hasn't fallen in love with him.

Not even as good as his four-year-old son!

At this time, the old lady took a sip of tea gloomily.

But she was so worried.

Seeing that Gu Jinlan was still standing, she forced a smile and said, "Sit down. Don't be nervous. I'm just chatting with you casually."

Gu Jinlan sat down, feeling confused.

Judging from the old lady's expression, it doesn't look like she wants to just chat with her casually.

Weird.

The old lady was quite happy after she explained it last time.

But he looks depressed today. Doesn't he believe that she has no intentions towards Shi Ye?

Gu Jinlan was observing Old Madam Shi, trying to figure out what she was thinking.

Suddenly the old lady looked at her, "Lanlan, I want to ask you, why don't you like my Xiaoye? What's wrong with him?"

Gu Jinlan was stunned.

You see, she has to explain the reason so that the old lady will believe that she has no thoughts about her precious grandson.

But if she was suddenly asked to say why she didn't like him, she really couldn't think of it.

On the contrary, Shi Ye is very good and the best man she has ever met.

At work, he is capable and decisive. Although he is only 29 years old this year, he has already become the helmsman of the Shi family's business empire.

In life, he is a good and responsible father.

Although he is serious and looks aloof, he actually has a gentle and delicate heart.

He is such a perfect man, there is nothing wrong with him.

If I really have to find fault with him, it's that he's too handsome and too rich, and so many women will target him.

There are too many beautiful temptations, and being his partner would be very stressful.

Seeing that Gu Jinlan had been silent, Old Madam Shi gradually felt uneasy, thinking that Gu Jinlan was counting Shi Ye's shortcomings in her mind.

"Lanlan, are there many things about my Xiaoye that you are not satisfied with? Do you need to think about it for so long?"

Gu Jinlan bit her lower lip, "He... does have problems in many aspects, so it's impossible for us to be together."

Madam Shi frowned and said, "Then tell me in detail."

Gu Jinlan seemed to want to say something but stopped.

This is really embarrassing.

She smiled awkwardly, "Old lady, it's not appropriate to say bad things about people behind their backs..."

Madam Shi was a little anxious: "There's nothing inappropriate, just say it. People need to know their shortcomings so that they can correct them and become better people."

This means that after she said it, the old lady will have to tell Shi Ye?

Wouldn’t Ye want to kill her then?

It seems that the old lady wants to destroy their friendship.

He really took great pains to prevent her from being with Shi Ye.

Madam Shi urged, "Tell me quickly, what's wrong with him? What makes you dissatisfied?"

Gu Jinlan was helpless. It seemed that if she didn't complain about Shi Ye today, the old lady would not believe that she had no intentions towards Shi Ye.

She racked her brains and thought, "He is... too dull, doesn't like to laugh, and is very boring. Sometimes... his mood swings are unpredictable, and he is scary when he gets angry."

Hearing this, Madam Shi's voice sank, "Did that boy get angry at you?"

Gu Jinlan nodded.

It was that night in the wine cellar, he had just discovered that she was the woman who was in the hotel that night and thought she was planning to get close to him.

At that time, his sinister eyes looked like a bloodthirsty demon.

He also pinched her neck.

At that time, the old lady asked, "Anything else?"

Gu Jinlan shook his head.

She couldn't think of anything else. This was the only fault she could find in him.

In fact, she didn't take to heart what happened in the wine cellar that night, and she could understand how he felt at the time.

If Old Madam Shi hadn't forced her to find fault with Shi Ye, she wouldn't have thought of this matter.

"Are you sure it's gone?" Shi Ye's voice suddenly came from behind.

Gu Jinlan's back stiffened and he felt like a thorn in his back.

When did he come?

Gu Jinlan looked at Old Madam Shi who was sitting opposite her, and saw that the old lady looked as if she knew Shi Ye would come.

Good man, he asked her to tell him Shi Ye’s problem just so he could hear it?

It's really not necessary...

Shi Ye asked again: "Didn't you say that I have many problems? Go on."

Gu Jinlan didn't dare to look back at Shi Ye: "No...no more."

Madam Shi: "Xiao Ye, you scared Lan Lan. Correct your attitude. You should face your shortcomings. The problems Lan Lan just mentioned are indeed your problems. You need to change them in the future."

Gu Jinlan pulled the corner of his lips stiffly.

The old lady added fuel to her fire when she was suspicious.

As expected of the mistress of a wealthy family, she is as shrewd as an old fox and can easily alienate the relationship between her and Shi Ye.

Shi Ye walked over and sat down next to Old Madam Shi.

He raised his eyelids and looked at Gu Jinlan with his dark eyes. He couldn't tell whether he was angry or not, "Did I scare you?"

Gu Jinlan quickly shook her head and was too embarrassed to look at Shi Ye.

Oh, I knew you shouldn’t say bad things about people behind their backs.

Shi Ye: "Then keep talking, I will write it down and correct it."

Gu Jinlan raised her eyes in surprise and met his gaze.

He was just looking at him leisurely, with an ambiguous expression in his eyes.

Gu Jinlan was helpless: "It's really gone, I just said it..."

Madam Shi warned, "Xiaoye, don't get angry at Lan Lan again. If you do, I will be the first one to not forgive you."

"it is good."

"Smile more in front of Lan Lan in the future. Don't always have a stern face. It makes you look boring."

"Okay." Shi Ye nodded, his attitude looking very correct.

“……”Gu Jinlan was confused.

What on earth are these grandmother and granddaughter doing?

Madam Shi put down the teacup in her hand, took out a jade bracelet and handed it to Gu Jinlan, "Lanlan, this bracelet is for you."

Gu Jinlan was stunned.

The jade bracelet in Madam Shi's hand was of pure color, without any impurities, and it was crystal clear. It was obviously a very expensive top-grade product, and it must be worth at least eight figures.

Why did you give her such a valuable thing?

Is this an attempt to use material things to lure out her true colors?

"Thank you, old lady. I cannot accept such an expensive gift."

Gu Jinlan refused without hesitation.

At that moment, the old lady stood up, sat next to her, took her hand, and put the jade bracelet directly on her wrist.

Gu Jinlan was caught off guard and felt a sudden warm coolness on her wrist. The jade bracelet had already been put on.

I thought it was a test for her.

Is this for real?

"I really can't accept it. I appreciate your kindness." Gu Jinlan said as he was about to take off the jade bracelet.

Shi Ye said, "Grandma likes you, so she wants to give you something, so just accept it."
