Chapter 267: Disabled people, not very smart
"You must be feeling really bad if you have to come to my house in the middle of the night to find out what you are feeling."
As Gu Jiu spoke, he quickly stepped forward. His movement was clean and neat, and he grabbed Li Xiuneng's wrist.
Li Xiuneng only felt a huge force coming suddenly, as if his bones were about to be crushed, and he almost cried out in pain.
He secretly complained in his heart: Could this old man have practiced martial arts? His hands are so strong, they are like iron clamps!
What kind of granddaughter is there, what kind of grandfather is there!
Gu Ranle probably learned all those kung fu skills from her grandfather.
I didn’t expect that this old man is not only an excellent doctor, but also practices martial arts!
The key point is that the old man was smiling and looked very friendly. Others didn't think he was doing anything dirty at all. They thought he was shaking hands cordially with Li Xiuneng.
And Li Xiuneng, naturally, could not show any pain on his face, otherwise he would appear to be extremely weak.
This would be so embarrassing in front of the woman I like. How could I hold my head up in front of her in the future?
One of them secretly exerted force, trying to grip the other's wrist tighter to show his "strength".
One endured the pain and forced a smile on his face, pretending nothing had happened.
This scene looks quite "harmonious", but it's a pity for Li Xiuneng.
Gu Ranle, who had not been sick for a long time, felt like the frail Lin Daiyu, extremely delicate and fragile when she fell ill.
After standing for a while, she felt her legs as weak as noodles and wanted to find a place to sit down and rest.
She looked around and waved to the bodyguard standing not far away.
The bodyguard trotted over and asked respectfully, "Miss, what do you want?"
"I'm a little tired. Can you help me move the recliner at the door?" Gu Ranle said weakly.
"Okay, Miss!" The bodyguard responded and went to move the chair. His speed was faster than that of a rabbit.
When Gu Jiu heard the voice, he turned his head to look at Gu Ranle, only to see that her forehead was covered with sweat and her face did not look very good, as pale as paper.
He immediately let go of Li Xiuneng's wrist and strode towards Gu Ranle.
He raised his hand and touched Gu Ranle's forehead. He felt that the temperature was normal, but he was still worried.
Then, he took Gu Ranle's wrist and felt her pulse.
After a moment, he frowned and said seriously, "Go back to your room and lie down. I'll make some medicine for you."
"Old man, you are too nervous. I am just a little tired. I just need to take a break." Gu Ranle said with a smile, trying to ease the tense atmosphere.
Gu Jiu stared at her unhappily for half a minute, his eyes seemed to see through her.
Then he went back to his room without saying a word to boil medicine.
Li Xiuneng breathed a sigh of relief when he saw him leave, feeling as if he had walked back from the gates of hell.
He immediately maneuvered his wheelchair to Gu Ranle's side and reached out to touch her forehead, but she was standing while he was sitting, so he couldn't reach her because he was not tall enough.
He tried several times, but failed each time.
He looked like a kid who couldn't reach the candy.
"Baby, do you have a fever?" Li Xiuneng asked with concern.
"No." Gu Ranle denied, but there was a hint of weakness in her voice.
"Then lower your head and let me touch you."
Li Xiuneng kept his hand stretched out and did not put it down, while his other hand was still holding Gu Ranle's hand. The action was intimate and natural.
Her palms were wet with sweat, and he was more and more certain that she had a fever, otherwise the old man would not have said he would make medicine for her.
Seeing that she stood there without moving, Li Xiuneng became a little anxious. He pulled her hand and shook it, "Lower your head and let me touch it."
"What if I touched you?"
Gu Ranle did not follow his wish. She pulled her hand out of his and wiped the sweat from her palms on her trouser legs.
"What are you doing here?" she asked Li Xiuneng.
Li Xiuneng was able to hold Gu Ranle's hand again, and the way she held onto it was so sticky that it was simply unbearable.
"I missed you and couldn't wait to see you tomorrow, so I came here."
Gu Ranle felt as sweet as honey when she heard this, but she was merciless in her words. She rolled her eyes at him and said, "Be careful, my old man might hear you and beat you out with a stick. You'll cry when the time comes."
When Li Xiuneng heard this, he was not afraid, but became even braver.
He immediately stepped forward, put his arms around Gu Ranle's waist, put his face against hers, and rubbed against her like a spoiled cat. An unclear voice came out, "Are you willing to do this?"
Gu Ranle allowed him to go too far and ignored him.
I was still angry with him before going to bed, but after I slept and spent several days in that world, my anger had disappeared.
Besides, I was really not feeling well and didn't have the energy to argue with him.
Li Xiuneng said: "Bao, your manor is really big. Yundingshanju is much inferior to your manor, and Villa No. 5 is not worth mentioning."
He was not exaggerating at all.
"Besides being a doctor, does your old man have a side job? It cost a lot of money to build your manor."
Gu Ranle raised an eyebrow, "A side job is to make money. My grandfather's ideal used to be a doctor who could help the world, but since he raised me, a money-eating beast, his hobby has become making money, lots of money."
"If I marry you, how much will the bride price be? Give me a rough idea so I can prepare in advance, in case I can't get enough money and can't get married."
Gu Ranle rolled her eyes and said, "I guess there's no chance of marrying you."
"what?"
Li Xiuneng immediately raised his head, "Don't tell me you're already engaged? I don't care, I want to snatch you away! Even if I have to bear the stigma of being a mistress, I will still get you."
Gu Ranle slapped him on the head and said, "I don't care if you want to be a mistress, but I won't cheat."
"No, you're mine."
He tightened his arms tightly, secretly hating himself for not being able to stand up at the moment. He didn't feel safe sitting and hugging her like this.
Being hugged so tightly by him, Gu Ranle simply leaned against him, raised her hand to rub his head, and said in a low voice, "Li Shenzhi, grandpa passed away."
"..."
Li Xiuneng trembled all over, as if he was struck by lightning, and it took him a while to slowly raise his face.
He was already an acquaintance of Grandpa Jiang. At first, the old man disliked him, mainly because he felt that he was not worthy of his outstanding granddaughter.
During this period, she also talked to him several times behind Gu Ranle's back, telling him explicitly and implicitly to leave Gu Ranle.
The old man didn't like him, but he still respected him very much. After all, he was Gu Ranle's grandfather.
If it were him, with a nearly perfect granddaughter, he would not agree to her marrying a disabled person.
Although he had always known that the old man was in poor health and didn't have much time left, he was still very surprised and felt a little sad when he suddenly heard the news of his death.
He hugged Gu Ranle tightly, as if this could give her some strength, "Don't be too sad, Grandpa doesn't want to see you like this."
The two of them just hugged each other quietly, no one spoke, but their hearts were closely pressed together, as if they could feel each other's heartbeat and warmth.
After a long time, Gu Ranle slowly raised his head, looked at the dark night sky, and sighed softly.
"So, Li Shenzhi, if you want to marry me, you can only be a live-in son-in-law. But don't worry, my family's betrothal gift will definitely not be small, and you can give as much dowry as you want. I won't let your family suffer any loss."
When Li Xiuneng heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and it took him a while to react.
"So... you are not engaged?"
"However, if you want to marry me, you have to get past my old man first." Gu Ranle added, with a hint of helplessness in her tone.
"Then tell me what your old man likes, so that I can cater to his tastes and try to get his approval as soon as possible." Li Xiuneng asked hurriedly.
As soon as he finished speaking, the security captain rode over again on his electric donkey and shouted, "Miss, there's a man named Liang Can at the door looking for you!"
When Gu Ranle heard this, he was stunned.
She suddenly remembered that Liang Can had asked her to go to a concert tonight, but she had slept so well that she had forgotten about it.
Li Xiuneng looked at her, frowning slightly, "Bao, Liang Can sounds like a man."
After hearing this, the security captain raised his eyebrows and muttered to himself: Baoer?
What is the relationship between this Li guy and the eldest lady?
Why are you calling me so intimately?
Wait, why are you hugging me?!
Where is the old man?
Where did the old man go?
Don’t you care about anything?
"I'll go to the door with you." Gu Ranle said.
When Li Xiuneng heard this, he immediately grabbed Gu Ranle's hand and held it tightly.
"Bao, I'll go with you."
Gu Ranle glanced at him, shook his head helplessly, then got on the security captain's electric scooter and turned to warn Li Xiuneng: "You'd better sit here, don't run around, and don't make trouble, otherwise my grandfather will beat you out with a stick. Don't say I didn't save you."
She knew very well that with Li Shenzhi's personality, he might say something shocking when he met Liang Can, and the situation would definitely be extremely awkward.
In order to avoid such an embarrassing situation, it is better not to let the two meet.
The electric scooter was moving slowly, the night breeze was blowing gently, and Gu Ranle sat in the back, feeling the coziness and comfort.
"Miss, are you in love with that Mr. Li?" The security captain couldn't help gossiping while riding his bike.
Gu Ranle said softly, "Hmm," with a hint of helplessness in her tone, "But my grandfather hasn't agreed yet."
The security captain muttered to himself, he was really brave to come and hug you without your consent.
He smiled and said, "Haha, Mr. Li is really brave to come directly to you, Miss."
Gu Ranle sighed, "He's a disabled person, and his brain doesn't work very well sometimes. If my grandfather asks you to throw him out later, remember to tell the others to be gentle and not to hurt him."
After hearing this, the security captain was speechless.
Disabled person, your brain isn't working very well?
My dear rich girl, you can have any other boyfriend, why do you have to find someone like this?
He thought silently in his heart that if the old man ordered them to throw the man out, they would have to do it right away to prevent that guy from harming the eldest lady again in the future.
