Chapter 213 Too many men means trouble
Cui Shao was sitting diagonally opposite Qi Yan. Seeing him constantly raising his neck towards him, he felt a rush of heat, his vision went dark, and he almost flipped the table over and stood up.
This kid... did it on purpose!
He stared at the teeth marks and kiss marks on Qi Yan's chin, and could almost imagine the circumstances under which they left these marks last night.
Ambiguous, passionate, and emotional to the point of trance.
Qi Yan was showing off to him and fighting back against him.
Cui Shao gritted his teeth, his face as black as the bottom of a pot.
He wanted to denounce Qi Yan's meanness, but he had no right to do so. He could only clench his fists under the table, gripping the chopsticks so hard that they squeaked, a harsh and abrupt sound.
Cui Ruo noticed something was wrong with her brother and couldn't help but look sideways, but when she saw the anger and forbearance growing wildly in Cui Shao's eyes, she couldn't help but be shocked.
Except for the time when he was naughty and got beaten but refused to admit defeat during his school days, Cui Shao had not shown such intense emotions for many years.
A ridiculous idea suddenly popped up in my mind.
Cui Ruo turned to look at Qi Yan, but found that the pride and provocation in his eyes were no less than Cui Shao's, and even had a hint of viciousness.
They were competing, waging a war full of smoke at the sleepy and silent breakfast table.
It goes without saying that the only person who could make them compete on this matter was Gu Nan.
Cui Ruo pursed her lips, feeling a little solemn for a moment.
The old tree finally bloomed, but the flowers ended up blooming on other branches.
She glanced at the old lady sitting at the top, who was drinking porridge. She seemed to notice her gaze and looked in her direction.
A glance that was neither salty nor bland, but full of warning.
The old lady knew it a long time ago.
Cui Ruo suddenly remembered that some time ago, someone had said that it was the old lady who helped Cui Shao get the land in the west of the city. At that time, she didn't quite believe it because the old lady never easily interfered in the affairs of the younger generation.
I didn't expect it to be true, so I just waited here.
Cui Ruo still didn't understand something, and her heart sank immediately. She looked away and picked up a shrimp dumpling from Cui Shao's plate.
He whispered, "Eat."
Seeing that Cui Shao didn't move, she grabbed his hand under the table and pulled it hard, her voice lower and deeper, "Don't look."
Cui Shao was so angry that he didn't leave immediately. Even if he had great patience, how could he eat it?
He picked up the shrimp dumplings from the plate but couldn't bring them to his mouth.
After a long while, he raised his eyes to look at Gu Nan. She still had her head down, drinking the porridge in the bowl in small sips, calm and lazy, as if it had nothing to do with her.
"Buzz——".
The ringing in his head started again, and the frustration that had nowhere to vent rushed in and out, knocking him out of all reason.
He didn't dare to imagine how crazy Gu Nan would be to abandon his gentle appearance and rudely create those extremely glaring red marks.
Or maybe, there are two on the chin alone, so are there more and denser ones in other invisible places?
I can’t think about it. If I do, I’ll feel anxious and anxious.
Gu Nan: “…”
Shuanq, it’s not that it’s none of my business, but I don’t dare to look up.
With such a big pot on my head, no matter what I say now, it will only make the matter more obvious and embarrassing.
Moreover, Cui Shao's eyes were so intense that even if I didn't look at them, I would break out in sweat on my back. If I looked at them, I would probably feel even more uncomfortable and uneasy.
Scary, these men are scary.
Too many men means trouble.
I just want to run away quickly.
I finally managed to finish a tasteless breakfast.
The old lady said, "Qi Yan, come to my study."
The others knew that the old lady was going to teach her grandson, so they got used to it and dispersed.
Qi Yan had expected this to happen and calmly responded with a "OK".
Then he shook Gu Nan's hand in a flattering manner, "Anan, can you please go upstairs first? I'll come to you soon."
Gu Nan knew what he was thinking.
The thief was afraid that Cui Shao would say a word to her and take advantage of her.
However, Gu Nan didn't want to talk to Cui Shao at this time, it would be too embarrassing, so he went upstairs without saying anything.
Qi Yan watched Gu Nan return to his room, closed the door, and then walked to the old lady's study.
As soon as he entered, he saw the old lady sitting behind the desk with a stern face and an unhappy expression.
"I know you did it on purpose this morning," the old lady scolded, "It's unbecoming for brothers to make things so ugly."
Qi Yan lowered his head and said sincerely, "Grandma, I know I was wrong."
He doesn't like to call her grandma, he always calls her grandma.
"Do you know you're wrong?" The old lady sneered, "You did it on purpose!"
Qi Yan was not stupid and knew the consequences of doing so, but he insisted on doing it just to make Cui Shao unhappy.
After spending a few days together, the old lady got to know her little grandson's temperament. Although he was young, he was full of thorns and would prick people where it hurts, which made him look like he would take revenge.
He grew up in the slums, so she didn't comment on his behavior for the time being. She even welcomed it when he was trying to protect her. But she was a little unhappy when he used his tricks on her brother just because of a few inappropriate words.
"He won't have many opportunities to interact with Gu Nan, so a few words won't amount to anything. I'll keep an eye on him for you, but I hope you won't do something like this again." The old lady said in a deep voice, "If you do it again, I won't let you off easily."
Qi Yan naturally agreed, paused, and then said, "Grandma, can you help me persuade Anan to get engaged first?"
The old lady frowned and said, "This is your private matter. I don't care. Whether you can capture her heart depends on your own ability."
Qi Yan felt a little disappointed. "She seems to have some concerns, but I don't know what they are."
The old lady didn't say anything, but she felt a little pessimistic in her heart.
But it’s not that I don’t have a good impression of Gu Nan, but I don’t have a good impression of Qi Yan. This grandson can’t control a girl like Gu Nan.
She chased Qi Yan out and called Cui Shao in, scolding him: "I told you not to get close to Gu Nan, but you ignored my words, didn't you? If you act like a troublemaker again, don't come back!"
Cui Shao was scolded severely and was in a daze when he was kicked out of the study.
He walked stiffly to the window and stared at the heavy snow outside in a daze.
Cui Ruo walked over, stood shoulder to shoulder with him, and suggested, "Listen to your sister, give yourself a vacation, go out and have some fun, meet some new friends, and maybe you'll meet someone you like more and who's more suitable."
Cui Shao blinked in confusion, "I've met many people, but I only liked her."
"That's because you haven't met enough people." Cui Ruo said firmly, "Go abroad and see for yourself. Different cultures cultivate different people. You're too tired and need a rest."
Cui Shao was stunned and didn't know what to say.
The old lady suppressed him repeatedly, Gu Nan deliberately distanced himself from him, Qi Yan was on high alert, and coupled with the shock this morning, he suddenly felt a little discouraged.
The doorbell rang.
Cui Yue, who was walking in the room with Qin Nian, opened the door and smiled when he saw the person coming. "Mingqian, I knew it was you."
