Su Xixi was angered by him. She went to the yard and found the porridge in the cage. She picked up a big carrot and stuffed it into the porridge's cage. The porridge was so frightened that it jumped up and down in the corner, trembling.
Su Xixi said angrily, "Stupid rabbit, do you think all males are this stupid? Su Lei, that donkey brain, cut his own wrist to repay Su Quan for his life, and that's fine."
The little mute boy also thought his father was very bad, and that it was related to him!
They must be out of their minds!
As Xifan listened to Su Xixi's rambling, her ruby-like eyes were fixed on the glistening, tempting carrot. She tentatively reached out her paws, wanting to take a bite.
But just as it mustered its courage and was about to finally bite into the carrot...
Susie suddenly pulled out the carrot, clapped her hands, and said, "Forget it, why should I talk to a rabbit-headed person like you? You're even dumber than them!"
Xifan watched helplessly as the carrot that was about to reach her mouth flew away, and then looked at Su Xixi's departing figure. Xifan's ruby rabbit eyes were full of grievance.
In the inner room, Old Madam Qin had already woken up. Looking at the room full of people, she said to Qin Guanlin, "Eldest son, tell them all to leave. Let Gu Chen and Ruan Ruan stay and keep me company."
Su Yiqing frowned slightly. She could understand why Old Madam Qin asked Ruan Ruan to stay with her, but what was the meaning of asking Gu Chen to stay as well?
Although he felt somewhat uncomfortable, he knew that Madam Qin's health was already critical, and he wouldn't go against the old lady's wishes.
Moreover, Xiao Ruanruan and Gu Chen...
His deep gaze fell on Xiao Ruanruan, and he sighed with a touch of melancholy.
Actually, when they returned from the desert and talked to Gu Chen, Gu Chen had already told them everything that happened between him and Xiao Ruanruan in the house in the ancient city ruins in the desert.
This includes all of his conversations with Xiao Ruanruan.
She also knew that Gu Chen had clearly told Xiao Ruanruan how he felt.
But judging from Xiao Ruanruan's recent behavior, she treats Gu Chen the same as always, even a little more intimately than before. Now Xiao Ruanruan will even take the initiative to hold Gu Chen's hand.
The brothers discussed it and decided that if Xiao Ruanruan were to get married when she grew up, Gu Chen would be the best choice.
Since this matter was already unavoidable, they were actually trying to discover Gu Chen's strengths and try to accept him.
However, for some reason, the more they discovered Gu Chen's good points, the more they found him an eyesore.
In particular, they now realize that if Xiao Ruanruan really reaches the age of marriage and starts dating Gu Chen, they can't even find any reason to belittle Gu Chen or stop Xiao Ruanruan from being with Gu Chen!
This made them hate Gu Chen even more. It was bad enough that he came to compete with them for Ruan Ruan, but he also had to come so early!
Other brothers outwit their sisters' boyfriends, at least until the sister reaches puberty before they need to guard against unwanted advances. But these guys, their sister is only four years old, and they're already worried about a wolf cub stealing her away!
It's all because my sister is too outstanding!
Madam Qin leaned back against the cushions, her gentle gaze shifting from the little girl to Gu Chen.
Although her voice was old and hoarse, it was full of love when she spoke, "Gu Chen..."
"Grandma Qin, I'm here," Gu Chen replied politely.
With her cloudy eyes filled with exhaustion, Madam Qin said, "I should be going to join your Grandpa Qin soon. The only person I'm most worried about in this world is Ruan Ruan."
Although I know that Xiaoruanruan's brothers will do everything in their power to protect her for the rest of her life, I am always worried that there may be things they cannot take care of.
I can tell you'll treat Xiaoruanruan very well.
So, please, from now on, take good care of Xiaoruanruan like this. And if the Su family encounters any difficulties in the future, please lend a hand if you can.
"Mm." Gu Chen nodded solemnly. Actually, he didn't need anyone to entrust him with anything; he would protect everything that Xiao Ruanruan cherished!
Madam Qin smiled kindly and nodded, then took Xiao Ruanruan's hand and placed it in Gu Chen's hand. "Gu Chen, I'm entrusting this to you."
After speaking, Madam Qin gave Xiao Ruanruan a deep look, as if she wanted to imprint her in Xiao Ruanruan's mind.
Finally, she said gently, "Little Ruanruan, you and Brother Gu Chen go out. Grandma is tired and wants to sleep a little longer."
Xiao Ruanruan led Gu Chen out of the room, looking back every few steps. Her eyes were sore and swollen, and she could hardly hold back her tears.
Gu Chen squatted down and gently hugged Xiao Ruanruan. "Grandma Qin is just tired and wants to rest. She'll be fine."
"Mmm!" Little Ruanruan nodded emphatically, holding back her tears.
Grandpa Qin's funeral proceeded in an orderly manner. In accordance with Grandpa Qin's last wishes, he wanted to be buried in the same cemetery as Ruan Ruan's mother, but the cemetery was far away from his mother's grave.
They wanted to go to another world so they could watch their daughter from afar, just from a distance, without disturbing her!
Because the old man did not escort the coffin back to the capital, the funeral was not grand. However, given the power and status of the Qin family, there were plenty of people eager to curry favor with them.
Both the people of Chongqing and the wealthy and powerful families in Beijing sent representatives to offer their condolences after hearing the news.
Although Su Yiqing and his siblings did not formally acknowledge the Qin family as relatives, they participated in the entire funeral with the etiquette due to grandchildren in order to fulfill the old man's wish.
They didn't return to the Su family until after burying Old Master Qin's ashes.
The funeral lasted a week, and everyone was exhausted. Xiao Ruanruan, Su Xixi, and even Su Lei and Su Xiaowu fell asleep on the way back to the Su family home.
When the four little ones went home, each of their four older brothers carried one of them back.
After settling the four little ones in, Su Yiqing and the other three were truly exhausted and went back to their room to sleep immediately.
I slept until the next morning. I was planning to get ready and then go back to the capital, since the four little ones should be going to school soon.
Su Xixi and Su Xiaowu are both not doing well in their studies and have fallen behind so much recently, so they must go back to catch up.
But before they could leave, Su Yiqing received a call from Qin Guanlin.
"Old Madam Qin has disappeared?" Su Yiqing frowned, repeating the question with slight surprise.
After Madam Qin managed to accompany them to the burial of Old Master Qin yesterday, her already weak body became even more exhausted, and she was unable to get out of bed.
The Qin family members stayed by the bedside day and night, so how could he suddenly disappear?
