Chapter Twenty-Six: Meet the Old Man
Seeing this, Gu Ze closed his eyes: "Try again." ”
After speaking, he walked up to Lin Li again, lowered his head again and slowly approached.
Assembled, he stared at the face with heavy makeup, and this time, Gu Ze rushed out of the classroom directly.
In the end, the result of this rehearsal was naturally that Gu Ze couldn't speak in the end.
Lin Li returned to the dormitory, took off her makeup and took a shower, and turned on the computer leisurely to prepare to surf the Internet.
At this time, the special mobile phone ringtone she set suddenly rang, and it was Gu Yuchen calling.
Seeing this, Lin Li restrained her mind and was busy coping with it.
"Rehearsal finished?"
The voice of the person on the other end of the phone was as low as ever.
"Hmm...... The prince is too ugly...... I almost threw up, I can't describe the acting skills......"
The person on the other end of the phone listened patiently to her complain before asking, "Are you free tomorrow afternoon?"
"Tomorrow afternoon? Should it ...... Nothing, right?"
Feeling her nervousness and rejection, Gu Yuchen's voice seemed to be even colder: "Grandma wants to see you." ”
"Huh, grandma......"
When Lin Li heard this, she was stunned for a moment, and at the same time, she also instantly recalled some things that happened before she was reborn.
In the Gu family, the status of the old lady and the old man is very high, but the original owner has completely offended this old woman.
After all, with Meng Ruoqing as a-stirring stick, the original owner must not offend people, it is completely impossible!
Therefore, Meng Ruoqing taught the original owner how to make the old lady "like her", and the original owner did it one by one at that time, and she also touched the old lady's only reverse scale.
That is Gu Yuchen.
In the past, in order to marry Gu Yuchen and herself, she did all kinds of things, and after the old man who was the only one who favored her also died, the old lady was even more disgusted with her, and later forced Gu Yuchen after marrying Gu Yuchen, Gu Yuchen was irritable and stressed, until finally insomnia and nightmares.
Thinking of this, Lin Li's heart became densely uncomfortable.
There was no response on the other end of the phone for a long time, and Gu Yuchen's tone completely cooled:
"Forget it. ”
Lin Li finally came back to her senses and hurriedly explained:
"Does Grandma want to see me? Of course she's going, I'm just a little nervous, what do I like and hobbies, what clothes should I wear? What gifts do I have to prepare?"
Hearing her suddenly ask such a long list, the other end of the phone fell silent.
Seeing this, Lin Li was anxious: "Hey, hey, are you still there?"
"Hmm. ”
Seeing that Gu Yuchen's voice was a little hoarse, Lin Li couldn't help asking, "You haven't answered my question yet?"
"Don't prepare, I'll pick you up tomorrow afternoon. ”
"That's too casual, so come and pick me up early tomorrow afternoon and go out shopping with me." ”
The old lady is the only person who can manage Gu Yuchen, how can she say that she should have a good relationship with the old lady.
The next day, in the remote alley of the side gate of Haoda, a luxurious Bentley looked out of place with the mottled old walls and tattered concrete road.
The black body looks very low-key, but the interior decoration is luxurious to the extreme, leather seats and expensive velvet blankets, and the automatic humidifier exudes a faint aroma with hypnotic effect, and it is very comfortable everywhere.
At the same time, Gu Yuchen was dressed in a well-tailored black suit, sitting on a chair covered with a snow-white velvet blanket, his face was as indifferent as ever, and his eyes were unfocused, looking at the void outside the window, not knowing what he was thinking.
Subsequently, the faint shadow of long-term insomnia under his eyelids made his whole person look a little gloomy and intimidating.
seems to be connected by the same fate, Zhang Ou in the driver's seat has two heavy dark circles under his eyes, and his face is gloomy.
He never thought that the master would take Lin Li to see the old lady, and after he knew the news, he was anxious.
Isn't the master afraid that the woman will scare the old lady out of the way?
The more Zhang Ou thought about it, the more frightened he became, and he couldn't help but persuade:
"There are some things that you may not like to hear, but your subordinates still have to remind you that the old lady is your most important relative, and with the character of the lady, if her wife offends the old lady, the consequences will be ......."
Before Zhang Ou could continue, there was a cold voice without a trace of temperature from the back seat, wrapped in a huge sense of oppression:
"When do I do something, and it's your turn to question me?"
Zhang Ou was shocked by the sudden coldness, and he didn't dare to say anything more in an instant.
"My subordinates know their mistakes. ”
In the next second, Gu Yuchen's tone became even more indifferent, and his thin lips spit out a few words like ice,
"There is no next time. ”
Just when the atmosphere in the car froze for a while, there was a sound of broken footsteps not far away.
Immediately after, Zhang Ou raised his eyes and looked in the direction where the footsteps came from, only to see a girl in a white dress walking in their direction from the back door.
The girl did not apply powder, carrying a light blue handbag in her hand, black long hair like ink scattered over her shoulders, plus white skin like mutton fat jade, full of girl's vigor and beauty, not like the delicately dressed celebrity daughters he is used to seeing on weekdays, but it is eye-catching, like a clear stream.
After seeing who it was, Zhang Ou stayed there in disbelief.
That...... That's Lin Li ?
Lin Li chose for a long time, but decided to wear this dress, although the old lady is noble, but I think the old people still like the kind of clean, well-behaved and obedient girls.
As for makeup, she deliberately put on two masks last night, and she didn't wear makeup at all except for basic care.
Zhang Ou took a long time to react, stumbled out of the car and opened the back seat door.
Madame is dressed so normally today?
After Lin Li got into the car, he sat next to Gu Yuchen.
Lin Li took out a list and said softly:
"First go to Wanchun Hall to buy some medicinal supplements, and then go to the mall to buy a few sets of clothes or scarves or something, when you tell my grandmother, also, I am poor, I will pick gifts, but you have to pay ......"
Lin Li was talking, when she suddenly felt that her chin was lifted, her clear breathing approached little by little, and the man's handsome and trance-like face gradually enlarged in her eyes, and then there was a pain in her lips.
Lin Li was confused, what's wrong with this guy? Obviously he didn't do anything, right?
Is it because of her outfit?
"Don't you like me dressed like this? I thought that Madame might not like girls with heavy makeup, so I didn't wear makeup, so I had to grieve you a little. ”
Hearing that Gu Yuchen could dress like this for his grandmother's sake, Gu Yuchen's expression was suddenly stunned.
After that, his gaze flashed over Lin Li's cheeks, and then over her chin, neck, waist wrapped in a slender skirt, and slender and well-proportioned legs......
The cold eyes exuded the same heat, and the next second they kissed again, different from the dragonfly just now, and even a little rude.
Lin Li was startled, hurriedly pushed him away, and turned his head to look out the window in confusion.
So does he like it or not?
Zhang Ou, who was driving, turned red when he saw the picture behind him, and quickly raised the blind.
What's the situation?
How can this kind of scene inexplicably have a sense of déjà vu that his young master is committing a crime?
After arriving at the mall, Lin Li first took Gu Yuchen to Wanchun Hall, and then went to the luxury mall in the city center for a walk.
Medicinal herbs and supplements are easier to choose, just let the boss help her pick some good quality, and other things are checked by Gu Yuchen, so naturally there will be no mistakes.
In fact, it doesn't matter what you buy, after all, materially, the old lady doesn't lack anything, she just needs to be courteous.
After picking the gifts, the car slowly drove in the direction of the Gu family's old house.
After about an hour, Lin Li saw the other courtyard in his memory.
The annex is a Chinese-style manor, the style is simple and atmospheric, and the car entered the carved gate and drove for more than ten minutes to the main house.
There was already an old housekeeper wearing a straight uniform and gold-wire glasses waiting at the door of the main house, and when he saw Gu Yuchen's car arrive, the old housekeeper immediately respectfully stepped forward, bent down and said:
"The young master is back. ”
"Hmm. ”
Gu Yuchen responded without any expression as always.
As he spoke, the housekeeper glanced at Lin Li beside Gu Yuchen with his eyes silent.
The young master was withdrawn, indifferent and moody, and he hated this woman touching him very much, and when he saw the woman next to the young master taking the initiative to hold the young master's deliberate arm, the old housekeeper's expression was very surprised.
Seeing the simple and delicate appearance of this young grandmother, the old housekeeper had some doubts in his heart, he thought that what could make the young master like it must be a dignified and atmospheric woman like Meng Ruoqing.
After all, Lin Li was the one brought back by the young master personally, and the old housekeeper's attitude was still very respectful, and he immediately bowed his head and said:
"Hello ma'am. ”
"Hello, housekeeper. ”
Lin Li greeted politely and didn't say much.
The impression was not good before, but now it is always right to be a little more reserved.
Thinking of this, the old housekeeper saw Lin Li standing beside Gu Yuchen obediently, reserved and shy, and the good feeling in his heart was a little more than before.
"Come into the house, the old lady has been waiting for a long time. ”
It's time to step in here again, Lin Li's pupils shrank suddenly, and he subconsciously clenched his palms, and bad memories surfaced uncontrollably.
Isn't this the Hongmen Banquet?
Can she really make a difference to the old lady?
At the same time, when Gu Yuchen and the others had just arrived at the gate, the old lady had already received a notice from the servant, and was pacing around the living room uneasily at this time.
She had already learned something about Lin Li from Zhang Ou before, and when she heard that Lin Li was completely different from before, the old lady felt a lot more at ease, but she still didn't believe it.
Hearing footsteps at the entrance, the old lady immediately looked towards the door.
I saw the housekeeper walking in front, followed by two people, his grandson as always with a straight face like an ice sculpture, followed by a beautiful girl, the girl's plain and clean face was full of gentleness and well-behaved, which made people can't help but feel pity when they see it.
Seeing this, the old lady was overjoyed, that girl was really Lin Li.
What's even more surprising is that the two of them actually came in with their arms.
According to Gu Yuchen's previous character, it was impossible for Lin Li to touch him, but now, he didn't refuse in anger, which was simply unprecedented.
Just when the old lady was overjoyed, Gu Yuchen led Lin Li to the old lady.
Seeing this, Lin Li took a deep breath, and then shouted sweetly,
"Grandma. ”
Hearing this, the old lady's eyes stared at Lin Li for a moment, and slowly showed a loving smile, and said in a flat tone:
"Lin Li, come here, let me take a good look at you. ”
Hearing this, Lin Li glanced at Gu Yuchen, and then walked obediently towards the old lady.
