☆, Chapter 18 Family
"You can talk to Sun Jianghe about whether it counts or not." Sun Miao didn't want to talk to her anymore. He said this coldly, went to the sofa, picked up his bag, turned around and left.
"Ximing, go and send it off quickly." Gu's mother reacted and quickly winked at Gu Ximing.
It's not for any other reason, but Sun Miao is different now. If something happens to the Gu family, even if Sun Miao himself accidentally falls, the Gu family is likely to be blamed.
Mother Gu was not afraid of her third uncle coming to blame, but she was afraid of the gossip outside and that others would make up stories and put the blame on the Gu family, so she asked Gu Ximing to protect Sun Miao.
As long as Sun Miao leaves the Gu family, nothing else will have anything to do with them.
Gu Ximing understood what his mother meant, grabbed the car keys on the coffee table, and chased after Sun Miao.
"Cousin, I'll take you there."
"Stop right there, you little bitch! Come back here and explain yourself clearly, or I'll tear your face off!"
Mei Yan continued to yell angrily until the two of them disappeared after leaving the house. Her scolding could no longer reach Sun Miao, and she lost all her energy like a ball.
Her face turned red like a cooked shrimp, and soon she glared at Gu's mother with red eyes.
"Mei Qian, you actually helped outsiders deal with me and asked Gu Ximing to send that little bitch home. You are indeed in cahoots with them. You already knew about the adulterous couple, right? Just wait to see me make a fool of myself!"
His tone was very firm, and the eldest sister stopped screaming.
Mother Gu was too lazy to argue with this ungrateful person. She waved her hand and asked the security guard to drag the man out by force, ignoring Mei Yan's angry scolding.
After dealing with everything, Gu's mother remembered to care about Gu Ran. When she turned around, she saw Gu Ran eating melon with his eyes shining.
He didn't look scared at all.
Mother Gu was immediately relieved, and the slight resentment she had felt at being irritated by her third aunt disappeared. She went over and took Gu Ran's hand, pretending to ask, "Are you not scared, Xiao Ran?"
"No, I'm not afraid as long as my mother and third brother are here." Gu Ran said reservedly and obediently.
Inner Thoughts: [This melon-eating Shura field is obviously super exciting, okay? I'm so excited, how could I be scared? Gu Ma really underestimates me!]
[I used to work every day, so I didn’t even have time to eat melons. How could I have the opportunity to witness Shura Field with my own eyes?]
[Oh, I finally understand why Chinese people love eating melons. From now on, I will definitely be the first to attend such melon-eating events. It's so interesting.]
Mother Gu couldn't help laughing and thought Gu Ran's split look was adorable.
…
After returning to the room, Gu Ran was still excited about eating a big melon, and spoke excitedly to the system.
"I never expected this, Qiqi. My third uncle looked like an honest man, but he was actually such a little devil behind the scenes. I thought she was all-powerful at home, but I didn't expect her to be schemed against to the point of being left with nothing. There's always someone better than you."
"Sizzle... Sizzle... Host... low on energy, Qiqi will be offline soon..."
The familiar sound of electricity was mixed into the mechanical sound of the system.
Gu Ran was surprised. "Didn't you just recharge your energy with that son of destiny? How come you ran out of energy so quickly?"
"The system consumes a huge amount of energy. The host just had a brief contact with the Son of Luck. The system can only obtain very little energy. It is not easy to maintain it until now!" The system said, "The system will be offline in one minute. The countdown begins. Sixty, fifty-nine..."
"Wait, wait, wait..." Gu Ran was anxious now. She still had a lot of questions to ask!
Being so busy that she couldn't think of any key plot points to ask, she just said whatever came to her mind, "When will you be online next time? You won't have to wait until I meet Bai Yifan next time, right? But..."
Gu Ran felt a little embarrassed when he thought about this problem.
If the child of luck is her third brother or eldest sister, the worst that can happen to her is that she spends every day with him/her to recharge her energy.
But the son of destiny is Bai Yifan.
He is the heir of the Bai family. Not to mention that he is very busy, he has little interaction with a little girl like her. She can't just stay with him every day just to recharge.
Those who know her think that she needs energy, while those who don’t think she has ulterior motives!
And the most speechless thing is that it was less than two hours since she and Bai Yifan separated, and he and Bai Yifan had been in the office for about twenty minutes. In other words, after charging for twenty minutes, the system can only be on standby for about two hours.
If you want the system to be on standby for a day and a night, doesn't it mean you have to spend at least two hours with Bai Yifan?
How can there be any chance?
"Is there no way to charge faster?" Gu Ran asked the system before it went offline.
Thirty seconds had already passed the countdown, and the system's response sounded as if it was disconnected.
"According to Qiqi's observation, the closer the host is to the Child of Fortune, the more abundant the energy. If the host and the Child of Fortune could hold hands, the charging speed should be twice as fast. If they are willing to kiss..."
"Wait! Stop it!" Gu Ran was horrified. "What do you mean by kissing? Qiqi, are you running out of energy and talking nonsense? Can you kiss casually?"
But this time the system did not give her an answer. After two crackling sounds, the countdown came to an end. The voice in her head suddenly seemed to be cut off, and everything was silent.
The system is offline.
“…” Gu Ran.
She ignored their last conversation and stopped thinking about recharging her energy for the time being.
Otherwise, strange images will always appear in my mind.
Gu Ran lay down on the bed and simply took out the phone number he had written down before, intending to start making money first.
Although some things are inconvenient without the system, for example, many plot details in the original work that she is not very clear about cannot be verified by the system.
Also, you can’t eat melons.
But this does not affect her money-making career.
She had previously asked the system about the future development of each project and was certain that the projects she chose would be popular dramas with a high return on investment in the future.
This would allow her to act freely.
In the next few days, Gu Ran was busy meeting and negotiating with the leaders of various projects.
I occasionally go to the company to help Gu Ximing look at recent projects, and we discuss and learn from each other. My days are very fulfilling.
A week passed like this.
On Monday, Gu Ran didn't plan any schedule for himself and planned to lie down at home all day.
After breakfast, she found many movies and planned to go to the theater to kill time, but before she could take action, Mother Gu and Father Gu suddenly came back.
Both of them were in a hurry, as if they had something urgent to deal with.
After spending these days together, Gu Ran had completely regarded the Gu family as his own family. Seeing this, he quickly stepped forward and asked, "Mom and Dad, why are you back from the company? Did something happen?"
It's only been less than an hour.
