C23 Im Getting Old and Muddled (1/2)
Gu Rui Zhe looked Gu Nan Yin up and down a few times, ”Grandfather wants to send someone to pick you up in two days, did that stinking brat Yun Xiao Mo bully you again?”
”Nope.” Gu Nanyin immediately said, ”Grandfather, I saw Rong Jin`er in A City. I've seen her working for the Yun clan, and I'm sure she has some ulterior motives. We have to prepare well so that the Rong family won't be able to obtain her.”
”Yeah, I heard about that too.” Gu Rui Zhe patted the back of Gu Nan Yin's hand, ”Since you're back, then I'll help Grandfather with some company matters. Your father has been missing for so many years, and your sister is still married and gone overseas.” If anything happens to grandpa, our family will depend on you. ”
”Grandfather, don't talk nonsense. Your body is strong and healthy, living for a few more decades won't be a problem.” I'm still waiting to see you buy the Rong family! ”
For some reason, the thought of her identity brought tears to the corners of Gu Nan Yin's eyes. She resisted the urge to let her grandfather see her like this.
Five years ago, she had been a nurse, not the daughter of the Gu family. If she had thoroughly investigated her background, she didn't know if she could still continue being the Gu family's second young miss.
Gu Ruoyun sighed, ”People die eventually, so Grandpa isn't afraid of dying. It's a pity that after working hard for half his life, he couldn't even see his own son.”
The old man sighed towards the sky and looked at Gu Nan Yin. Now, he didn't know whether what he had done all those years ago was right or wrong.
”Grandfather, I have something to ask you. You keep saying that five years ago, I had a fever and lost my memory, but I always dream of the same scene. I was lying in a pool of blood, and a woman in red pointed a gun at my head. Do you know what's going on?”
Gu Rui Zhe froze for a moment, and then said, ”Child, you must have been burnt silly. What woman in red? I never knew of such a person. Oh, right, the Zhou family's daughter returned home today.”
Knowing that her grandfather was purposefully changing the topic, Gu Nan Yin didn't pursue the topic.
Then, she smiled. ”Sister Wan is back? Where is she now? ”
”I've already sent someone to the airport, so it should be soon. Your Uncle Zhou handed the business to Mu Wan's eldest brother, Zhou Lingfeng. Mu Wan was much more idle now, so she decided to return to the country to take a look. ”You should go rest after dinner. I'll arrange for her to stay at our place when Mu Wan comes. You'll be able to see her when you wake up tomorrow morning.”
”Living with us? That's great. ” Gu Nan Yin looked mischievously at Gu Ruoyun, ”Eh? Grandfather, how do you know I haven't eaten dinner? ”
”The car that brought you back was arranged by Yun Xiao, right? He had a little conscience. Lexus is good, he'll be there in four and a half hours. By the looks of it, you left at five-thirty in the afternoon, you probably haven't had dinner yet, and you don't like to eat in the car, so you must still be hungry. ”
Gu Nan Yin's mouth was wide open, ”Wow, grandpa, you're amazing! But I'm already hungry today, so there's no need for the kitchen to gather people. I just need a bowl of porridge. ”
Gu Rui Zhe was stunned, ”Normally, you don't want to be wronged by your food, what's going on with you coming back from A City?” Yun Xiao didn't treat you badly when it came to food, right? ”
Gu Nan Yin waved her hands and pouted. ”No, grandfather. He's the CEO, why would he be lacking me a bite to eat? I was just about to compliment you on your agility, but now I take it back. ”
”Alright, alright, alright. I'll do as you say.” Gu Ruoyun turned around and said to the butler, ”Go to the kitchen and prepare some side dishes for Second Miss and some seafood congee. Remember to use fresh scallops and bring them to Second Miss's room after you make them.”
”Yes, sir.”
”Grandfather, I'll go upstairs first. You should rest early.”
”Alright, go ahead.”
