The villain is too crazy, the little ancestor is not going to do it anymore

It's already noon.

The sun was as hot as molten gold, pouring down mercilessly and baking the earth.

On the street, although the tall camphor trees have lush branches and leaves and are full of greenery, they can hardly withstand the invasion of the scorching sun. They hang their heads helplessly, and the treetops are motionless in the heat wave. Not even a breeze is willing to visit this dull space.

There was a depressing and stuffy atmosphere in the air, as if even breathing had become difficult.

Gu Ranle stood under the shade of a tree, beads of sweat already oozing from her forehead. She sighed helplessly, her eyes falling on the man in the wheelchair beside her.

His face was calm and determined, and one hand was tightly pulling at her trouser leg, as if that was his only support at the moment.

Due to the difference in sitting posture and height, he had to look up to talk to her.

"Li Shenzhi, it's over between us."

There was a hint of fatigue and determination in Gu Ranle's voice. She was trying to convince this man, and at the same time, she was also trying to convince herself.

Hearing this, Li Shenzhi smiled faintly, with a hint of self-mockery and persistence in his smile, "You said that our relationship never really began, so how can it ever end?"

Gu Ranle took a deep breath and tried to calm her inner turmoil. She really wanted to knock out this stubborn man in front of her with a palm, but reason told her not to do that.

She suppressed her temper and asked again: "What else do you want?"

Li Shenzhi's eyes became unusually honest, "I want to marry you."

Last night, he stayed awake all night, replaying every moment with Gu Ranle in his mind.

That night, he seemed to have experienced a spiritual baptism, and finally understood a fact -

He didn't want to lose her, and he didn't want it to end like this.

Gu Ranle pursed her lips and tried to move back to break free of the hand that was holding her trouser leg.

However, Li Shenzhi's hands were like iron clamps, holding on tightly.

No matter how hard she tried, she was worried that her pants would be torn off.

"Let go." There was a hint of helplessness in her tone.

Li Shenzhi shook his head firmly, "No, as soon as I let go, you will leave me."

Gu Ranle chuckled, "Do you think you can keep me like this?"

Li Shenzhi has a clear understanding of his situation, "I know I can't stop you, but I want to at least let you know my feelings."

Gu Ranle felt weak, as if his fist had hit soft cotton, and all his efforts turned into nothing.

She asked helplessly: "How much money do you need?"

Li Shenzhi's eyes darkened and he shook his head, "My marriage to you has nothing to do with money."

Gu Ranle couldn't help but sneer when he heard this, and there was a hint of sharp doubt and a touch of sarcasm in his laughter.

"Is that related to feelings? Don't tell me that you suddenly found yourself deeply in love with me last night."

Although the words were full of sarcasm, Gu Ranle felt an indescribable bitterness in his heart.

She didn't know where this emotion came from, but she felt as if an invisible stone was pressing on her chest, making it difficult for her to breathe.

Li Shenzhi's gaze remained firm.

He spoke slowly: "Relationships can be cultivated slowly. We can get married first and then fall in love."

He paused for a moment, then continued, "Last night, I stayed up all night, thinking over and over again about our relationship. I came to the conclusion that I may never meet a woman who can make my heart beat 30% again in this life. I don't want to and cannot lose you, otherwise, I will definitely end up alone."

His tone was calm and serious, as if he was talking about something extremely important.

However, to Gu Ranle, this sounded more like an absurd joke.

She really admired his way of thinking, he could come up with such a ridiculous reason to keep her.

She was so angry that she laughed, "What does your lonely life have to do with me? You want to marry me, but I have never thought about marrying you."

Li Shenzhi seemed to have anticipated her reaction. He was not discouraged, but continued to ask: "So you fell in love with another man?"

Gu Ranle shook her head and answered very frankly: "No."

He then asked, "Then you met a second man who completely met your aesthetic standards?"

Gu Ranle shook her head again and told him honestly, "Neither."

Li Shenzhi seemed to see hope. He unconsciously increased the strength of his grip on Gu Ranle's trouser legs, as if he was afraid that she would disappear from his sight the next moment.

He asked anxiously: "Since you don't have any, why don't you want to marry me?"

Gu Ranle frowned and replied impatiently: "This has nothing to do with whether I want to marry you or not."

Upon hearing this, Li Shenzhi lowered his head and sighed heavily.

His eyes dimmed a little, but then perked up again.

But this time he didn't look up at her, instead he lowered his head and murmured, "Okay, I'll be honest with you. I must have fallen in love with you. Although it's not to the point where I can't extricate myself, it's to the point where I can't lose you."

Gu Ranle stood quietly. The midday sun was like a golden flame, hot and intense, baking the earth hot.

She narrowed her eyes slightly and looked towards the distant and blurry sky, feeling mixed emotions, angry and amused.

In both worlds, her combined age has already exceeded half a century.

However, love is still a mysterious area that she has never set foot in, like an unopened book full of unknowns.

She had also imagined what love would look like in her mind many times, imagining those gentle love words, affectionate gazes, and the warmth that belonged only to the two of them.

However, imagination is imagination after all, and there is always an insurmountable gap between it and reality.

She had no experience and didn't know if falling in love with someone was really as hard to talk about as it was with him.

In her opinion, love should be frank and passionate, and it is the most sincere emotional exchange between two hearts.

When you fall in love with someone, the joy and impulse should be uncontrollable. You want to let the other person know immediately so that you can immerse yourself in this sweetness together.

But then again, what does it feel like to fall in love with someone?

Somewhat curious.

But this curiosity was not enough to make her want to have a serious relationship.

She was more accustomed to devoting her energy to medical research, and for the time being, she did not have a strong desire to possess something as intangible as love.

At this moment, she lowered her head and her eyes fell on Li Shenzhi who was sitting in a wheelchair.

The sunlight shone on him through the gaps in the leaves, adding a touch of softness and warmth to him.

There seemed to be some secret hidden in his eyes, and he never dared to look her in the eye.

She smiled silently and said, "Li Shenzhi, why don't you dare look me in the eyes and say that you are in love with me?"

Without waiting for Li Shenzhi to answer, she asked herself, "You feel guilty, right? Because even you don't know what it means to fall in love with someone."

Li Shenzhi did not refute her. He still lowered his head. After a moment of silence, he slowly said, "I know."

Gu Ranle was slightly stunned, and asked in confusion: "What?"

Li Shenzhi took a deep breath, and even though it was so hot and stuffy around him, his voice was unusually clear and firm.

"I always think of her in my heart. I feel very happy when I see her and I want to be with her all the time."

"???"

This sentence suddenly popped up without any context, it's so confusing.

Gu Ranle frowned slightly, "What are you talking about?"

Li Shenzhi finally raised his head, locked his eyes with hers, and spoke word by word: "I know what it means to fall in love with someone. This feeling is as hot and real as the sun at this moment. I can't ignore its existence."

Gu Ranle was stunned. She looked at Li Shenzhi's determined eyes and a complex emotion surged in her heart.

She never thought that she would hear someone say they loved her at such a moment and in such a way.

She was a little dazed and couldn't tell whether it was true or false.

After a while, she asked blankly, "Are you confessing to me?"

Li Shenzhi nodded gently, with a gentle smile on his face: "Yes, so do you accept my confession? There are no flowers, no rings, and no romantic confession scene for you."

Gu Ranle did not hesitate at all and answered straightforwardly: "I don't accept it!"

Li Shenzhi's eyes widened, his face full of confusion, "Why?"

Gu Ranle spread her hands and raised a teasing smile: "You don't give anything, but you want to seduce girls? You are not innocent, you are simply a typical daydreamer! Come on, sister, let me give you a friendly reminder, you should go home and take a shower and go to bed. There are all kinds of girls in your dreams, maybe you can even form a harem!"

After saying that, she patted Li Shenzhi's shoulder, swiftly freed her trouser leg from his hand, jumped into the car, stepped on the accelerator, and sped away, leaving Li Shenzhi alone in the wind.

Humph, a mere 30% of heartbeat value, 30% of love, who cares!

[Woman, have you really decided to give up? ]

Gu Xiaohei's voice sounded faintly in Gu Ranle's mind.

Gu Ranle snorted, "Could it be true? From the beginning, you and I both knew that completing the strategy mission was simply impossible, but we didn't give up. Now we have tried hard and proved that it is indeed the case. Instead of wasting time and energy on such a hopeless task, I might as well do something truly meaningful."

【for example? 】

"For example, go to Mr. Luo's place and enjoy a feast of delicious food."

[Woman, do you need me to remind you how many days you have left? ]

"No, there's no need. Just erase him. Do whatever you want."

As soon as Gu Ranle finished speaking, there was a crisp "ding dong" sound.

【Favorability +20】

[Host's current favorability 50%]

"Ah!"

Gu Ranle chuckled, "You bastard, tell me the truth, can you manipulate this favorability in the background?"
