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

Gu Jiu's cold attitude was like a bucket of cold water, making Li Minghui instantly realize that it was indeed inappropriate for him to visit at this time.

But the situation was urgent, and he believed that Gu Jiu should be able to understand his difficulties.

So he quickly said sincerely: "Doctor Gu, I am really sorry to bother you so late at night. Please forgive me."

After saying this, he bowed respectfully with an extremely sincere attitude.

"How do you know I live here?" There was a hint of displeasure and confusion in Gu Jiu's voice.

This is the root cause of Gu Jiu's cold attitude.

Gu Jiu has always been low-key. The most ostentatious thing he has done in his life was when he adopted Gu Ranle more than 20 years ago. He held a grand birthday party for her and invited guests from all over the world.

Another thing is the construction of this manor.

In this bustling and noisy city, people are talking about this manor every day and speculating about who the owner of this manor is.

However, only a few people actually know his identity.

But now, Li Minghui actually found his residence accurately.

Did Li Minghui investigate him or Lele? Or was he secretly following them?

No matter which situation it was, it made Gu Jiu feel angry and dissatisfied.

The relationship between them is simple and clear - you give money and I treat the disease.

It's a pure doctor-patient relationship, nothing more than that.

Li Minghui had no reason or right to investigate him, let alone follow him.

This behavior undoubtedly crossed the line between them.

Gu Jiu is a person who attaches great importance to personal privacy and sense of boundaries.

He hates people who intrude into his life without permission and disrupt his peace.

This behavior of crossing the distance made him feel invaded and disturbed.

At this moment, his eyes revealed a hint of displeasure and vigilance, as if he was telling Li Minghui, "We should keep a proper distance between us. You give me money, I treat my illness, and other than that, we have no other connection. Please don't try to cross this line, otherwise, you will bear the consequences at your own risk."

The atmosphere around them became somewhat depressing and tense because of Gu Jiu's coldness and vigilance.

Li Minghui knew that his behavior this time was indeed a bit presumptuous and inappropriate.

Hearing what Gu Jiu said, he was stunned, and then quickly explained: "Doctor Gu, please don't misunderstand, I have never investigated you and Miss Gu, let alone followed you. Yesterday I went to the hospital to visit Xiuneng's grandfather, and inadvertently talked about the benefactor who saved his grandfather. The scene they described was very similar to you and Miss Gu, so I asked a few more questions, and it turned out to be you two. In fact, I had planned to go to your house with the Chen family to thank you that day, but unfortunately I couldn't come because of something unexpected. I'm really sorry for causing you to misunderstand."

Li Minghui apologized sincerely again, his tone full of apology.

After listening to his explanation, Gu Jiu's anger subsided a lot.

"Then why are you here now? Is there something urgent?" Gu Jiu's tone softened a little.

Li Minghui breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his face was not so ugly anymore, and quickly replied, "It's like this, Doctor Gu, Xiuneng has been in good condition since he woke up today. At around four o'clock in the afternoon, when the sun was not too hot, I asked the third child to carry him to the yard to bask in the sun. He fell asleep on the recliner, and slept for about half an hour. Suddenly, he was like having a nightmare, sweating non-stop, and couldn't be woken up. I really didn't know what to do, so I was anxious to ask Miss Gu to come over and take a look."

After a brief pause, he added, "If Miss Gu is not at home, could you please go over to see her? I am really sorry to trouble you. I have no choice but to come to your house in such a presumptuous way. Please forgive me."

Gu Jiu snorted softly, his eyes swept across the herbs drying in the yard, and he said in a light tone: "You go back first, and when she is done, I will ask her to come over."

"Okay, thank you, Doctor Gu. I won't bother you anymore. Please go ahead and do your work."

When Li Minghui heard that Gu Jiu agreed, a look of gratitude appeared on his face. After thanking him repeatedly, he turned around and left in a hurry.

This time, he really came and left in a hurry. He didn't even enter Gu Jiu's house. He just stood in the yard and finished his words.

Looking at Li Minghui's departing back, Gu Jiu sighed softly.

Although he was somewhat dissatisfied with Li Minghui's presumptuous visit, he could also understand his anxiety and helplessness as a father.

Gu Ranle came out of the house at this time, looked at Gu Jiu, and asked with a little confusion: "Old man, why are you so cold to him? Although it is indeed impolite for him to come to your house rashly, you don't have to treat him like this, right? He is so old, and he still humbles himself in front of you. I can't bear to see him."

Gu Jiu was already reflecting in his mind whether he was a little too sensitive just now and it was indeed impolite to give someone a cold shoulder.

But when he heard what Gu Ranle said, he suddenly felt that there was nothing wrong with his previous actions.

This girl has only been in contact with the Li family for a short time, but she's almost been bribed by them.

Thinking of this, Gu Jiu felt very unhappy!

He glared at Gu Ranle fiercely and said unhappily, "If you can't collect all these herbs within an hour, don't have dinner!"

After saying this, Gu Jiu threw down these words coldly, turned around and went into the house.

Gu Ranle looked at Gu Jiu's back and couldn't help but frowned, muttering: "What's wrong with this old man today? It's like he's eaten gunpowder, he's so angry!"

She stood in the yard, looking at the medicinal herbs all over the ground, and sighed helplessly.

However, he immediately started to smile foolishly again.

I thought I couldn't go out tonight. This change came so suddenly.

Collect them quickly, then go to Li’s house for dinner.

She wants to find out tonight whether the real person behind that guy Li Xiuneng is Li Xiuneng or Li Shenzhi.

Li Minghui returned home and found that his eldest son Li Huaijin and second son Li Zefeng had both returned.

"Dad, didn't Dr. Gu come to our house?" Li Huaijin came forward and asked.

"She's still busy. She won't come over until she's done. How's Xiuneng doing now?" Li Minghui said as he walked upstairs with an anxious look on his face.

Li Jiashu heard the noise and came out of the house, "Dad, hasn't Doctor Gu arrived yet?"

"Well, she is busy and will come over when she is done. How is the fourth brother now?" Li Minghui stopped and looked at Li Jiashu.

Li Jiashu sighed, "He's still sweating. I just wiped his body and changed him into clean clothes."

After hearing this, Li Minghui frowned, walked quickly into the bedroom, looked at his youngest son Xiuneng, and sighed helplessly.

"You watch him first, I'll go prepare dinner." Li Minghui said, turning around and going downstairs.

Seeing this, Li Huaijin quickly said, "Dad, don't be busy. I'll call someone to send some food over."

Li Minghui thought about it and nodded, "Okay, I'm not too hungry. You can order whatever you want to eat."

After saying that, Li Minghui turned around and went to the study to deal with some matters.

Li Huaijin looked at his father's departing back and felt a pang of sadness in his heart.

He knew very well that his father must be feeling extremely heavy at this moment.

Ever since my mother passed away, my father has often been alone, always bearing the worries in his heart silently, unwilling to share his burden with his brothers.

At this time, the second brother, Li Zefeng, spoke softly: "Brother, why don't we invite the family doctor over? We are really unsure just waiting like this."

Li Huaijin was silent for a moment, frowning: "I'll call Dr. Gu to ask about the situation."

He and Gu Ranle had exchanged contact information so that they could communicate about his condition at any time.

"But Dad went to invite her in person, and she didn't come. You called..."

There was a hint of complaint in Li Zefeng's words. Obviously, in his mind, Dr. Gu's behavior was a bit of a big shot.

Li Zefeng paused and continued, "She is indeed talented and knowledgeable. Over the years, many doctors were helpless in treating the fourth child's illness. But she only took such a short time, and the fourth child miraculously woke up. She has the capital to be proud, but she is still too young after all, and she doesn't understand the principle that strength can be easily broken."

Li Huaijin glanced at him and said something unordinary in a calm tone, "Don't judge a person easily before you know the truth."

Li Zefeng opened his mouth, but ultimately chose to remain silent.

Because he knew that if he continued talking, he would inevitably be scolded again.

From childhood to adulthood, he and the third and fourth children lived a carefree life under the supervision of their parents and were rarely blamed.

But the only one who always had a stern face and was as serious as the winter wind was the eldest brother who taught them "political lessons" many times.

Their parents’ way of educating them was more like “herding sheep”, and the eldest brother naturally took over the whip from their parents and became their supervisor on their growth path.

He is more mature and stable than his peers, and his requirements for them are particularly strict and harsh.

At this time, Gu Ranle's cell phone was not on her. She was sitting at the dining table, enjoying a delicious dinner.

"Old man, after dinner, I'll go to the Li family to check on the situation. Don't worry, I'm with my six big bodyguards, so it's safe." Gu Ranle assured Gu Jiu while scooping at the food in the bowl.

Gu Jiu hummed softly and said calmly: "Go early and come back early, be careful."

Gu Ranle glanced at the wall clock and knew clearly in her mind that it was impossible for her to "go early". As for "returning early", that also depended on the situation.

However, if Li Xiu was not seriously injured, she would not stay in the Li family any longer.

Seeing Gu Jiu's worried look, Gu Ranle suddenly thought and suggested, "Master, why don't you come with me?"

Gu Jiu didn't hesitate for a moment and directly uttered the word "OK". It was so fast that it seemed as if he had been waiting for this sentence. The word "OK" almost jumped out of his throat.

Gu Ranle: “…”

She reluctantly stuffed a piece of pancake into her mouth, rolled her eyes, and secretly complained in her heart, but was too lazy to expose this old naughty boy.

After dinner, the grandparents drove to Li's house.

It was almost eight o'clock in the evening when we arrived at Li's house.

"You go in by yourself. I'll wait for you in this car." Gu Jiu said to Gu Ranle as he lazily lay on the flat seat.

Gu Ranle was a little confused: "You won't come in with me?"

Gu Jiu turned over, facing away from her, and said "hmm". He thought to himself: Is it necessary for both of them to come forward for such a small problem? The Li family doesn't have such a big face, and Li Xiuneng is even less qualified!

Gu Ranle naturally couldn't guess what her grandfather was thinking. She just thought he had some social anxiety and pushed the door open and got out of the car.

Li Huaijin had been waiting at the gate for a long time. When he saw Gu Ranle get off the car, he immediately went to greet her with a smile on his face.

"Doctor Gu, I'm so sorry to bother you with coming here so late." Li Huaijin's tone was full of apology and gratitude.

Gu Ranle smiled and waved her hand, "Mr. Li, you are too polite. This is my duty. How is Li Xiuneng doing now?"

"He is unconscious and sweating profusely, so I troubled you to come here so late at night."

Gu Ranle nodded, "I'll go see him first."

The other members of the Li family were all in Li Xiuneng's room. Although the room was large, it still seemed a bit crowded with several grown men standing there.

"Wait outside the door first. I'll check him."

"Thank you for your hard work, Doctor Gu."

Li Minghui turned around and walked out the door first, followed by his three sons. The four of them stood at the door, not saying a word, staring straight into the room.
