☆, Chapter 24 Relationship
"And then, what happened?"
An hour later, everyone in the Gu family gathered in Father Gu and Mother Gu's room to review the previous gossip.
In fact, after hearing Gu Ran's prediction, Gu's father and Gu Ximing had already prepared to go to the third floor to eat melon. However, they were called to Bai Qingyuan's room shortly after the meal.
They waited there for an hour, and missed the opportunity to watch the melons.
When they came out of Bai Qingyuan's room, everyone on the third floor had already dispersed.
The two of them scratched their heads, beat their chests and stamped their feet, and hurried over to find Gu's mother.
Gu Ran and Gu Yan happened to be there too, so the family was finally together. Gu Ximing quickly asked about what had happened before.
Gu Yan briefly told the two of them about the previous Shura field.
She had been waiting near Uncle Gu's room in advance and had not missed a single moment of the melon-eating process. After the incident, she immediately took advantage of the chaos to come out from the corner and squeeze into the crowd. Even Gu Ran didn't notice when she was there.
Gu Yan ate the whole melon without making any sense of existence.
Things were more complicated and exciting than expected. After listening to it, Gu's father and Gu Ximing felt that they had missed out on 100 million.
Father Gu asked, "What happened next? What happened after the third son's wife left? Did everyone leave?"
After such a grand opening, if it ended so quietly, it would be a complete failure.
"After Third Aunt left, everyone was about to disperse, realizing there was nothing more to watch. Unexpectedly, Fourth Uncle and Gu Ciyuan suddenly got angry, pounced on Third Uncle and started beating him up, pinning him to the carpet and giving him a good beating."
Gu Yan found the scene both hilarious and awkward when she talked about it. She covered her mouth and laughed continuously. She only continued talking after she had laughed enough.
"Gu Na rushed over to stop him, but it was useless. Gu Ciyuan was young and strong, and he was really strong. He probably used too much force accidentally, and threw Gu Na back onto the bed. The clothes tied around her waist were thrown off in an instant..."
"Wow, what a revealing sight! Gu Na really has a great figure. She even made Uncle Gu at the door stare at her."
“…”Father Gu and Gu Ximing.
What a wonderful drama!
"So why are they both so excited? A hero saving a damsel in distress?" Father Gu was very puzzled.
Gu Ximing couldn't figure it out either, and complained, "I don't think they're the type to be so aggressive. Maybe they both fell for Gu Na, but Uncle San got there first, and they're just pissed off and angry."
Gu Yan shook her head. She couldn't understand this either.
So everyone turned their heads to Gu Ran who was sitting in front of the bay window.
Gu Ran was also confused at this time, and was muttering to the system in his heart.
"I remember that in the novel, Mr. Gu's family were all villains. Fourth Uncle and Gu Ciyuan didn't look like good people at all. Why are they so kind today and standing up for us?"
"There must be something hidden here. No, no, no, Qiqi, don't investigate yet. Let me guess first and see if my imagination is big enough..."
"I think... maybe Fourth Uncle and Gu Ciyuan also have a crush on Gu Na?"
"Because of their status and seniority, neither of them can openly express their feelings, so they can only hide their feelings in their hearts?"
"At first glance, today's incident seems like an old cow eating young grass. They probably all think that Gu Na was forced by Gu Guofeng, although that's not the case..."
"Gu Na is really good at pretending. She just kept crying and didn't say anything. She put all the blame on Gu Guofeng, so they stood up for Gu Na..."
"Very good, that's very logical. That should be it, right?"
"Okay, Qiqi, you can check it now."
Everyone in the Gu family held their breath, afraid of mishearing the key truth.
The room suddenly became quiet. Gu Ran turned around as if he had sensed something, and his heart skipped a beat when he saw all the Gu family members staring at him.
[What's going on? Why are they all staring at me? Could it be...?]
"Xiao Ran!" Mother Gu spoke quickly before Gu Ran could think any further. "We've been discussing having a midnight snack. Do you want to come downstairs to eat with us? I've been asking you about it, but you haven't said a word. What are you thinking about? You're so lost in thought."
"Yes, Xiaoran, I asked you twice just now but you ignored me." Gu Yan joined in, pretending to be aggrieved.
"I was distracted, sorry." Gu Ran scratched his head, a little embarrassed, "I don't want to eat anymore. It feels like I just finished eating a while ago. I'm not hungry at all."
[Gu Ma and the others have such good appetites! They're hungry again so soon.]
"Then let's go downstairs and eat." Gu Ximing said, "Although it was only two hours after dinner, the dinner was not to our liking and we didn't eat much."
"You guys go ahead. It's time for me to go back to my room." Gu Ran jumped down from the bay window.
Everyone left the room together and went their separate ways.
Gu's mother and her group pretended to walk towards the elevator, all deliberately slowing down their pace.
Until they heard the sound of Gu Ran returning to his room and closing the door behind them, everyone stopped in unison and breathed a sigh of relief.
They were almost discovered by Gu Ran. Everyone looked at each other, feeling relieved, and then...
Moqi returned to Gu's mother's room, closed the door and locked it.
Just separated by a wall, Gu Ran's voice from next door could be heard clearly.
[Oh, Xiaoqi, I was so distracted talking to you just now that I didn't even hear what my elder sister said to me. I guess I'll have to eat watermelon in my own room from now on to enjoy it more.]
[Have you found out? Is the reason the same as I speculated?]
[What? How could this be… This is unbelievable!]
What? What exactly is going on? Why is it so unbelievable? Tell me!
The Gu family next door was extremely anxious.
Gu Ran: [Gu Ciyuan is fine, I think he's just a playboy. Fourth uncle and Gu Na are even older than each other, so how could he...]
What? What is the relationship between Cheng Shan and Gu Na?
The Gu family was so curious that they wanted to scratch the wall.
Gu Ran: [Filthy, vulgar, shameless! How could Fourth Uncle-in-Law be like this?! No wonder he was so excited just now...]
Gu Ran: [The relationships among these wealthy families are truly complicated!]
Gu Ran: [After the divorce is finalized tomorrow, Aunt Gu will probably announce the relationship between Gu Ciqian and Old Master Gu. It will probably be another big drama.]
Gu Ran: [I need to go to bed early to recharge my energy and continue eating melons tomorrow.]
Gu Ran: [I'm going to take a shower. Qiqi, you're almost out of energy.]
Gu Ran: [I know. I will sit next to Bai Yifan at breakfast tomorrow.]
The voice in my heart stopped, and I guessed that Gu Ran went to take a shower.
Next door, separated by a wall, the Gu family members were scratching their heads and were feeling anxious because they had not received a complete answer.
So what Gu Ran meant was that Cheng Shan and Gu Na were also having an affair? Otherwise, how could he use such serious words as obscene and filthy?
But these two people are not only of different generations, but also have nothing in common. How did they get together? And when did they get together?
Is it consensual, or is one party forcing you?
Is there an ulterior motive, or is it a true expression of feelings?
