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

In the afternoon, Gu Ranle was immersed in the tranquility of the study, concentrating on reading the book in his hands.

At this moment, Gu Jiu pushed the door open and interrupted her thoughts.

"What day is your high school reunion next week?" Gu Jiu asked directly, with a hint of anticipation in his tone.

Gu Ranle was stunned for a moment, and the page in her hand trembled slightly. Then she reacted and smiled, "Oh, I haven't asked yet. I'll ask later."

Gu Jiu did not leave, but walked straight to her, with an unquestionable firmness in his eyes, "Ask now."

Gu Ranle closed the book helplessly, raised her head and looked at Gu Jiu, with a hint of mischief in her eyes.

"Old man, you don't want to go to the class reunion with me, do you?"

In fact, she just mentioned it casually when she came back in the afternoon and had no intention of actually attending the class reunion.

But unexpectedly, her grandfather actually took it seriously.

Gu Jiu glared at her and pretended to be angry and said, "Why would I go to your young people's party? I'm here to prepare gifts for your classmates."

"Ah? Do I need to prepare gifts for everyone at a class reunion?"

Gu Ranle opened her mouth in surprise. She knew almost nothing about social circles and had never attended a class reunion. Naturally, she knew nothing about such rules.

In fact, it is usually not necessary to prepare gifts for everyone when attending a class reunion.

But Gu Jiu wanted to take this opportunity to help Gu Ranle make more friends, so he planned to prepare a gift for everyone.

Gu Ranle was completely unaware of this.

She foolishly thought that this was a necessary procedure for attending a class reunion, and she couldn't help feeling a little nervous.

"Hurry up and ask when the class reunion is next week and how many people there are so I can prepare gifts." Gu Jiu urged, with a hint of urgency in his tone.

Gu Ranle sighed and said helplessly: "Grandpa, I just said it casually at that time. I didn't plan to attend the class reunion."

Hearing this, Gu Jiu's brows knitted into knots, "Why not join? You can't stay at home all day at such a young age! You should go out more often and socialize with more people."

"Master..."

"Stop doing this!"

Just as Gu Ranle was about to act coquettishly, she was abruptly interrupted by Gu Jiu.

The corners of her mouth twitched, and she secretly regretted in her heart: It was my fault for speaking too quickly at that time. Now I am in a dilemma.

"Ask quickly!"

Gu Jiu had a stern face and his tone was filled with irresistible majesty.

Gu Ranle had no choice but to pick up the book again, pretending to read, and said perfunctorily: "My phone is charging, I'll ask you in the evening."

As for whether she would ask at night and what the result would be, it all depended on how she responded.

Anyway, she won't go to the class reunion.

Think about those unfamiliar faces, and she has to give gifts to each of them. What if they don’t accept her gifts?

Just thinking about it made her scalp tingle.

She'd better not get herself into trouble.

Gu Ranle secretly made up his mind, but didn't dare to show it on his face.

Gu Jiu's sharp eyes swept over Gu Ranle, obviously having seen through her little thoughts.

He pointed to the phone on the sofa and said with a hint of teasing, "Is the phone charging?"

Gu Ranle's mouth twitched slightly, and he secretly said in his heart that it was not good, but he still said calmly: "There is no Liang Can's phone number on this phone, sir, don't worry. I said I would ask in the evening, and I will definitely ask in the evening."

Gu Jiu looked at her with a warning in his eyes, "You'd better not give me a perfunctory answer, or I will deliver the gift directly to your classmates' reunion that day."

Upon hearing this, Gu Ranle was choked up and secretly groaned in his heart.

She knew her grandfather's temper too well.

If he really wants to do something, he will definitely do what he says, and he will do everything he can.

She knew that he did this for her own good.

I want her to go out more, make more friends, and even hope to use this opportunity to find a suitable boyfriend for her.

This way, if he is gone one day, she won't feel too lonely.

He didn't want her to be alone and helpless after losing him.

She understood this deep love and care.

Gu Ranle felt mixed emotions, and she really wanted to tell him that all these were actually useless.

No one in this world can replace his place in her heart.

If he really left, her heart would feel like a big piece had been dug out, and that kind of loss could never be filled by anyone.

That is a permanent and irreparable regret.

But she didn't say these words in the end.

She said seriously: "Don't worry, I won't treat you lightly."

Gu Jiu snorted lightly, then turned around and strode out of the room.

Gu Ranle watched him leave, and the interest in reading in her heart had long since disappeared.

She picked up the phone, slid her fingertips across the screen, and after hesitating for a moment, she finally dialed Liang Can's number.

"Hello, is this Liang Can? I'm Gu Ranle." There was a hint of uncertainty in her voice.

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a few seconds, and then Liang Can's trembling voice came, "It's me, Gu Ranle. I'm so happy. Please call me."

Gu Ranle smiled and said, "I want to ask, when is the class reunion next week? If I sign up now, can I still make it?"

"Are you going to the class reunion?"

"Well, I changed my mind. I want to join in the fun."

"Come join in the fun! It's next Saturday, so of course you can make it!"

“By the way, how many people will participate? How many boys and girls?” she asked.

"The number is still uncertain, but it shouldn't be too small. What's wrong?"

Gu Ranle was a little embarrassed. "I'm thinking of preparing a gift for everyone at the class reunion, so I have to ask the number of people."

Liang Can couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, "Ah? No need to be so troublesome, right? We have never accepted gifts at our previous gatherings."

Gu Ranle was stunned. "Is that so? I thought I needed to prepare gifts for everyone."

Liang Can comforted him, "Don't worry, it's really not necessary. It's most important for us to be together and have fun."

"Okay then, see you next Saturday."

After ending the call, Gu Ranle stood up, left the study, and walked downstairs briskly.

The "bang bang" sounds coming from the kitchen made her curious.

When she walked into the kitchen, she saw Grandpa Gu Jiu holding a sharp kitchen knife in each hand, chopping meat vigorously.

"Grandpa, what delicious food are you going to make?" Gu Ranle asked with a smile.

Gu Jiu didn't even raise his head and replied, "Fry some meatballs and have meatball soup tonight."

Meatballs!

Just hearing the name makes one drool.

Gu Ranle swallowed helplessly.

"Master, I asked. There will be a party next Saturday night. The number of people is not yet determined, but Liang Can said we don't need to prepare gifts for everyone." As she spoke, she walked to Gu Jiu.

Hearing this, Gu Jiu's mouth twitched and he stopped chopping meat. "The more gifts, the less blame. It would be nice if you could bring some gifts."

Gu Ranle nodded, "Oh, then will this make me look wealthy? Will it cause dissatisfaction among classmates who didn't prepare gifts?"

Gu Jiu was stunned by the question. He had never thought about this.

If his granddaughter really went there with great wealth and power, it might really cause dissatisfaction among some people.

After all, we are all adults in our twenties. We have been working in society for several years and our minds have become much more complicated.

Especially some people who don’t have a good life themselves and can’t stand to see others doing well.

Gu Jiu thought about it and decided not to be too high-profile.

"Well, let me prepare ten gifts for you. You can put them in the car. After the party is over, if you think you might have some contact with someone in the future, you can give them to them. If you don't think you will have much in common, then don't give them any."

Upon hearing this, Gu Ranle thought it was a good idea.

She thought about it, nodded and said, "Well, this is good. It can express my feelings without being too ostentatious."

Seeing that she agreed, Gu Jiu continued chopping the meat.

The sound of "dong dong dong" was heard in the kitchen again, and Gu Ranle stood aside, watching his grandfather busying around, his heart filled with warmth and expectation.

On the other side, Liang Can had just stepped out of the Chen family's door when his cell phone rang suddenly. Gu Ranle's name flashed on the screen. His heartbeat instantly accelerated and his excitement was beyond words.

What was even more unexpected to him was that Gu Ranle made a 180-degree turn on the phone and took the initiative to ask to attend the upcoming class reunion.

This news was like a breeze in the summer, which instantly brought Liang Can's mood to its peak. He was so excited that he could not express it in words.

This joy even exceeded the secret information about Chengdong Manor that he learned from his good friend Chen Nian.

Chen Nian told him that the owner of the East City Manor was named Gu, an elderly man who had a granddaughter, but her name was unknown.

Before revealing this information, Chen Nian specifically asked Liang Can to solemnly guarantee that this information would never be leaked to a third party.

This was a special reminder from Chen Nian's father, Chen Feng, because the owner of the manor is low-key, and they cannot spread other people's privacy just because the other party has helped them before.

The owner of the manor's surname is Gu, and Gu Ranle's surname also happens to be Gu, but this does not mean that Gu Ranle is the granddaughter of the owner of the manor.

Liang Can prayed silently in his heart, hoping that this was just a coincidence and that Gu Ranle must not be the granddaughter of the manor owner.

After all, since ancient times, marriages between wealthy families have always been about equal status.

Although the Liang family is considered a well-known family in Gucheng, compared with the owner of the East City Manor, they are nothing but a dwarf and are not even on the same level.

Liang Can thought secretly that if Gu Ranle was really the granddaughter of the owner of the manor, then the secret love he had hidden in his heart all these years would probably disappear completely in the darkness like an extinguished candle before it could even see the light of day.

He was unwilling to accept such a result no matter what.

At this moment, he could only pray silently, hoping that all this was just his imagination, and Gu Ranle just lived in the manor and was not the granddaughter of the manor owner.
