Tyrannical Tycoon Haunts Me Relentlessly-Chapter 505: Never Able to See Through Him (10)

Gu Beicheng’s temper is puzzling and inscrutable, even the Old Madam isn’t sure she can truly understand him.

So, whether he would really let go of that maid, no one knew.

After being shocked for quite a while, Gu Lingqian finally calmed down: "Grandma, you..."

"Grandma isn’t blind, Seventh and Nian Nian’s relationship isn’t simple, Grandma can certainly see that."

The Old Madam looked into the distance, her expression gloomy, "Actually, I really don’t want to break you apart, but, but Nian Nian, you don’t understand..."

She sighed deeply: "You won’t understand, you can’t be with Beicheng."

"Why?" Xia Yinian wasn’t stubborn about having to be with Gu Beicheng in front of this critically ill old woman.

She just didn’t understand, really didn’t understand! "Is it just because you want me to be with Brother Ling?"

"No, you don’t understand, you and Beicheng cannot be together..."

The Old Madam seemed a bit anxious and started coughing.

Gu Lingqian looked at Xia Yinian, signaling her not to worry, the elderly, especially those who are critically ill, might be stubborn in their thoughts.

In any case, now was not the time to agitate her.

Xia Yinian nodded, "Alright, Grandma, no matter why, I can’t possibly be with Uncle right now."

"Nian Nian..." The Old Madam looked up at her, a look of surprise on her face.

"I’ve fallen for Brother Ling, only Brother Ling is truly suitable for me."

Xia Yinian walked up to her with Gu Lingqian’s arm, both wearing smiles.

"Grandma, you are a woman too, you should understand that Uncle’s temper... I can’t bear it, nor do I want to bear it anymore."

"Brother Ling is different; he’s handsome and wealthy just like Uncle, but most importantly, he is willing to treat me well and is especially gentle to me."

"Actually, at first, I might have been a bit dazzled by Uncle’s appearance, but Grandma, you can’t blame me. In this world, how many girls can withstand Uncle’s charm, don’t you think?"

The Old Madam was stunned for quite a while, really for a long stretch of time.

It was unclear how much time had passed before she finally nodded and smiled, "Yes, that boy’s appearance is indeed daunting, just like his father in his days, no girl could resist being besotted by him."

"But Grandma, because he’s too handsome, it actually makes him unapproachable. In fact, Uncle is too cold, really not suitable for me."

"Brother Ling is great, equally handsome that dazzles people, he’s cold to other girls, but different with me."

Xia Yinian holding her hand, her gaze tender: "If you were me, would you give up such a wonderful Brother Ling, to choose an Uncle who is forever blowing hot and cold, distant yet near?"

Perhaps, this was also her current thought, Uncle... was really too far away, like a mirage on the horizon.

A mirage is attractive, everyone wants to chase it, but in the end, how many people can really catch up to it?

The key point is, she doesn’t choose Gu Beicheng, nor does she want to compromise Gu Lingqian, so, this is just fine.

Perhaps the Old Madam still had some doubts, maybe, some disbelief too, but now at least she had calmed down.

"Nian Nian, I hope you truly think this way, don’t worry, with our family’s Lingqian, you will definitely be very happy."

"In our Gu Family, no one will dare bully you again, Grandma promises you."
