The villain is too crazy, the little ancestor is not going to do it anymore
Chapter 101 No oil or salt
The next morning, after Gu Ranle finished her exercise, she took a refreshing shower. As she was drying her wet hair, she suddenly heard a bustling noise coming from the yard downstairs.
She walked to the window curiously and looked downstairs.
There were about ten people standing in the yard, both men and women. They stood in a circle and seemed to be saying something to Fu Hanting in the middle.
Due to the distance, she could only barely catch some vague sounds and could not hear the specific content.
But the lively atmosphere made her curious, and she secretly wondered if something big had happened.
However, her eyes quickly locked onto the "Fourth Uncle" whom she had met last night.
And standing next to my fourth uncle was a woman. Judging from her age and the intimacy between the two, she was most likely my "fourth aunt."
Gu Ranle secretly guessed in his heart that these people were probably members of the Jiang family.
At the lunch yesterday, she had almost no impression of the faces of the other members of the Jiang family except Jiang Jingxing and Jiang Wanruo. She just glanced at them quickly, which took about a second.
Therefore, she had almost no idea about the appearances of her uncles, aunts, uncles, and cousins.
She couldn't help but smile bitterly. As the niece of the Jiang family, she was really derelict in her duty.
She continued to speculate that the sudden gathering of these people here was probably related to the 20 million compensation mentioned last night.
After all, this is not a small amount of money. Even if the Jiang family is rich and the fourth uncle is rich, it is still painful to take out 20 million at once.
At this moment, her fourth uncle downstairs seemed to notice her gaze and looked in her direction.
Gu Ranle pretended not to see it and quickly turned back to the room.
The 20 million is what Fu Hanting wants, so just leave it to him.
As soon as I returned to the room, my cell phone rang. It was Song Yu calling.
"Little girl, guess whether Zhang Junyi and Feng Hanlin are father and son?"
On the other end of the phone, Song Yu's voice was full of gossip.
Gu Ranle actually already knew the answer from Gu Xiaohei, but she pretended to be ignorant and said, "That shouldn't be the case. If they were father and son, then during the months when Old Man Feng and his first love were married, his first love would definitely have told him the truth."
Song Yu laughed when he heard this, "Haha, you guessed wrong this time! They really are father and son!"
"Is this true? Did they do a paternity test?" Gu Ranle asked in surprise.
"No, it was Zhang Junyi's wife Toni who said that. Toni said that her mother-in-law told Zhang Junyi before she died that his biological father was Feng Hanlin. She also said that if they have the chance to meet in the future, he should let Zhang Junyi tell Feng Hanlin about it. If they can't meet, there's no need to go out of his way to find Feng Hanlin." Song Yu explained.
After listening to this, Gu Ranle felt mixed emotions and didn't know what to say.
She could only sigh that Old Man Feng must have done something to let down his first love when he was young, so that his first love refused to tell him until her death that his stepson was actually his biological son.
Alas, people, the debts they owe must be repaid sooner or later.
Moreover, this matter also involves Zhang Junyi and Feng Hanlin. I really don’t know how they will deal with this sudden "father-son" relationship.
After chatting with Song Yu for a while, Gu Ranle picked up the hair dryer, dried her hair, and walked out of the room.
Luo Jiangdu leaned against the outer wall of Mr. Luo's room next door, his posture seemed somewhat casual yet alert.
His eyes glanced towards the door from time to time, as if he was waiting for something.
Finally, when Gu Ranle's figure appeared at the door, he immediately stood up straight and greeted her with a concerned look on his face.
"Gu Ranle, I heard from my elder brother that you were robbed last night? Are you okay?"
Luo Jiangdu's tone was filled with obvious nervousness and worry, and he walked towards her with big strides, as if he wanted to confirm her safety immediately.
Gu Ranle nodded gently, with a faint smile on her face, "Well, I'm fine. I just went to the police station, explained everything clearly, and came back."
"I'm glad you're okay." Luo Jiangdu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that, and a look of relief appeared on his tense face.
He continued, "The fourth son of the Jiang family came here early in the morning with his father-in-law. I don't know what they are doing. My eldest brother didn't let me go downstairs. He told me to stay here to prevent grandpa from waking up and no one is around."
Upon hearing this, Gu Ranle pushed open the door of Mr. Luo's room and said casually as he walked in, "I guess they are discussing compensation."
"What compensation?" Luo Jiangdu followed behind and asked with a puzzled look on his face.
"Little girl, you're here." The familiar and kind voice of Grandpa Luo came from the bedroom.
Gu Ranle did not answer Luo Jiangdu's question, but walked straight into the inner room.
Mr. Luo was sitting on the bed. He looked healthy and energetic.
When he saw Gu Ranle coming in, a warm smile appeared on his face.
"Why did you wake up so early today?" Gu Ranle asked with concern.
"I woke up naturally after getting enough sleep." Mr. Luo sat up and stretched, looking full of energy. "I feel like I have endless energy now, as if I have returned to my youth."
"Really? Then go downstairs and eat by yourself later." Gu Ranle said with a smile.
"No problem!" Mr. Luo agreed cheerfully, "I can still go to the toilet and wash myself!"
As he said this, as if to prove that what he said was true, he lifted the thin blanket on his body and got out of bed.
This action frightened Luo Jiangdu, "Grandpa, you'd better not be so stubborn. It would be bad if you bump into something and fall."
He hurried forward to support Mr. Luo, but he was pushed away by him.
"Get out of the way! I'm fine, old man!" Old Master Luo glared at Luo Jiangdu, stood up and slapped him in the face, "You little bastard, if you dare to curse me again, I'll beat you to death!"
Luo Jiangdu rubbed the back of his head and said with a wronged look on his face: "Grandpa, I'm not cursing you. I'm clearly worried about your safety."
"I told you, I'm fine!"
Mr. Luo lifted his legs and felt full of energy, as if he could live another ten years.
"Gu Ranle..." Luo Jiangdu had no choice but to ask Gu Ranle for help.
Seeing this, Gu Ranle smiled and said, "He's been lying down for two days, let him move around. Just follow him and don't let him fall. Old man, although you feel full of energy, you still can't be careless. Let Luo Jiangdu accompany you. He is right. It will be troublesome if he bumps into something and falls."
Mr. Luo smiled and nodded, "Okay, I'll listen to you, little girl."
After saying that, he went to the bathroom with Luo Jiangdu, and did not forget to argue with Luo Jiangdu along the way.
Gu Ranle waited for them to enter the bathroom, then turned and left the room.
She decided to go downstairs and join in the fun, maybe that would put her in a better mood for the whole day.
"Lele!"
As soon as Gu Ranle came out of the house, Fourth Uncle saw her at the first sight.
There was a hint of urgency and joy in his voice, as if they were relatives who had been reunited after a long separation and were eager to get closer to each other.
However, Gu Ranle looked at this suddenly appearing relative with an expressionless face, without any ripple in his heart.
Fourth uncle strode towards her with big steps, the smile on his face like the warm spring sun, trying to dispel the chill in Gu Ranle's heart.
The fourth aunt followed closely behind and said with a smile: "Le Le, you get up."
Her voice was as gentle as a spring breeze, but Gu Ranle just looked at the two of them indifferently, with a barely perceptible hint of alienation and indifference in her eyes.
"Is there anything wrong?" Gu Ranle asked, with a hint of impatience in his tone.
She didn't like this sudden intimacy, and she didn't like having her morning tranquility disturbed, especially when facing these two relatives who had just met yesterday and were almost strangers.
What's more, their purpose of coming here was not to get close to her.
Seeing that Gu Ranle did not give the expected enthusiastic response, the fourth aunt was a little embarrassed, and a not very natural smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. She quickly added: "Lele, I am the fourth aunt. We met at your grandfather's house for dinner yesterday. Remember?"
As she spoke, she seemed to want to use this as an excuse to reach out and pull Gu Ranle's hand, attempting to use physical contact to make up for the lack of words.
However, Gu Ranle dodged quickly and said in a cold tone: "If you have something to say, just say it. Don't make a move."
These words, like an invisible wall, instantly made the atmosphere subtle.
Fourth aunt's hand stopped awkwardly in mid-air, her face changed slightly, but she soon returned to smiling, only this time it was more forced.
"Le Le...your fourth uncle and I came here today, actually..."
Fourth aunt suddenly paused and turned to look at her husband beside her, as if seeking some support or courage.
She knew that what she said next might make the atmosphere even more tense.
"I'm here to apologize to you." Fourth uncle took over the conversation at the right time. He took a step forward with a sincere look on his face, and suddenly bowed deeply to Gu Ranle, "Le Le, Fourth uncle was wrong. It was all Fourth uncle's fault last night. Fourth uncle apologizes to you."
This action obviously caught everyone by surprise, even my fourth aunt looked surprised.
She didn't expect that her husband would apologize to Gu Ranle so sincerely.
But think about it, if bowing can save you from paying 20 million, it is a good deal.
Seeing this, Fourth Aunt quickly took out an exquisite gift box from her handbag and handed it to Gu Ranle, with a more flattering smile on her face.
"Le Le, this is a gift that your fourth aunt prepared for you. I hope you like it."
She tried to use this gift to ease the atmosphere and let Gu Ranle feel their sincerity.
However, Gu Ranle just glanced at the box coldly and did not reach out to take it.
"I accept the apology, but please take the gift back. I don't want it."
There was a hint of unquestionable determination in her tone, which instantly made Fourth Aunt's face look a little embarrassed.
She didn't expect that Gu Ranle would be so resolute.
"Le Le, this gift is a token of our appreciation, please accept it."
Fourth aunt forced a smile and tried to persuade again.
However, Gu Ranle chuckled, with a sharp and cold look in his eyes.
"What? Are you trying to use this gift to pay off the 20 million in compensation? Is this gift worth 20 million? What is it? Come, let me see."
As she said this, she was about to reach out to take it, but her fourth aunt took it back.
How could this gift be worth 20 million?
If it was really worth 20 million, they wouldn't have come here this morning to apologize and give gifts.
Fourth Uncle seemed a little embarrassed and helpless. He rubbed his hands and tried to ease the atmosphere.
"Le Le, Fourth Uncle really knows he was wrong. What happened last night was all his fault. I hope you can give him a chance to correct it."
There was a hint of pleading in his voice, as if he really realized his mistake.
However, his plea seemed so pale and powerless to Gu Ranle.
She chuckled, and her eyes became even sharper and colder.
"Excuse me, if I hadn't subdued the driver with a knife last night, what would you have done to me? You'd better think carefully before answering this question."
There was a hint of unquestionable majesty and anger in her tone, which made Fourth Uncle lower his head guiltily.
He was indeed wrong about what happened last night. He shouldn't have acted rashly without doing any investigation. Now he has ended up losing more than he gained.
Facing Gu Ranle's relentless pressure, he stammered, "I..."
"Why? Is this question difficult to answer?"
There was a hint of sarcasm in Gu Ranle's words, which made Fourth Uncle even more ashamed.
Fourth Uncle lowered his head even lower. He sighed, his voice sounding a bit heavy, as if he was making his final struggle.
"Le Le, I know my behavior last night was excessive, but I really didn't mean to hurt you, I just wanted to scare you. If Fourth Uncle really knows he was wrong, can you forgive him?"
Gu Ranle chuckled, his eyes cold and sharp.
"Why do you think I should forgive you? Just because of your superficial apology? Or because of this worthless gift in your hand? Do you think these can make up for the psychological shock you caused me last night? I had a nightmare last night. I dreamed that someone was chasing me with a knife and slashing me all night long."
Fourth uncle: “…”
He was sure that what Gu Ranle said about having a nightmare was nonsense.
Looking at how energetic she looks, how could she not have gotten enough rest last night?
However, he knew very well that this was not the time to argue with her about these details. He came to solve the problem rather than intensify the conflict.
He took a deep breath, trying to make his tone sound more sincere.
"Le Le, I know that whatever I say now may seem pale and powerless. My behavior last night was indeed excessive and brought you unnecessary shock. Although this gift in my hand is not valuable, it is a small token of my sincere apology. I know it cannot make up for the fear you felt last night, but I hope you can give me a chance to prove with practical actions that I really know I am wrong."
But Gu Ranle was completely unmoved.
She smiled and said, "No matter how much you ask, it's useless. 20 million is not a penny less. I believe you can come up with this amount of money. If you really can't, then I'll go ask grandpa for it. I think grandpa should be able to come up with this amount of money."
