MTL - The Reborn Scholar Wants To Counterattack

Chapter 29 Throw it out

The corners of Gu Weimian's mouth twitched. Gu Xinguo was indeed as... upright as she remembered.

She lowered her eyes slightly, and when she raised her head again, her amber eyes had regained their composure: "Grandpa, I am willing, I am serious."

 Compared to Ao Qijun, the result of getting engaged to Huo Yan is already much better.

Although Huo Yan was...as annoying as ever, it was enough for Gu Weimian to know that this man would not harm her like Ao Qijun did.

Mr. Gu looked at Gu Weimian silently. How could he not know who his own granddaughter liked in his heart?

 What was the reason that made her suddenly change her mind and decide to get engaged to Huo Yan?

Other than him, he didn’t know who else Gu Weimian could compromise for!

 This is his granddaughter! What I love most is my granddaughter who can’t wait to hold the whole world in front of her! But because of him, he made the greatest sacrifice a girl could make.

Gu Xinguo sighed deeply: "Why...why bother!"

 …

The night is getting darker, and the moon is hiding behind layers of clouds, and not a trace of light can shine through.

 The old house of the Gu family seems to have fallen into sleep, standing quietly by the Ningshui Lake.

 A "click" sound.

The door to the bedroom on the first floor opened, and Leng Rui pushed Huo Yan into the room.

 It was late at night and the hair of both of them was wet.

The wind blew, and the floor-to-ceiling curtains on the window sill were blown up. The silver moonlight took the opportunity to leak in, bringing some light to the dark bedroom.

Huo Yan frowned slightly and raised his hand to ask Leng Rui to stop.

　　His eyes slowly moved to the single sofa in front of the window sill.

On the black European-style single sofa, a thin figure was curled up, with his feet folded up and placed on the sofa, with his head lowered and buried in her arms.

 Slender body, like a lazy cat.

Leng Rui's face darkened, and he quickly took a step forward to protect Huo Yan: "Who is there? Come out!"

Since Huo Yan's legs were unable to walk unexpectedly, Leng Rui's protection against Huo Yan has reached a state of turmoil.

 “Silence!” Huo Yan shouted in a low voice.

Before Leng Rui could react, Huo Yan had already passed him and slid his wheelchair in front of the single sofa.

The dark phoenix eyes stared tightly at the figure in front of him, and there were unknown emotions surging deep in his eyes.

 The cold moonlight poured on the woman's body, making her figure even more frail and helpless.

Leng Rui gasped when he saw the person's face clearly.

 It turned out to be Gu Weimian!

 He almost didn’t recognize her without makeup at first.

 The way she curled up and slept quietly, like a little angel.

After Leng Rui discovered that the visitor was Gu Weimian, his face became even colder, and he did not feel moved at all by the scene in front of him.

"Master, leave it to me. I'll throw her into the living room. Or, throw her directly out the door!"

How dare Gu Weimian dislike the young master!

 What a proud young master the young master is, and who is she?

In the past, a woman of Gu Weimian's level would probably never have the chance to interact with the young master.

 Even now, the young master is no worse than anyone else!

"I told you to be silent!" Huo Yan's gaze was cold. When it passed across Leng Rui's face, Leng Rui even felt a tingling sensation on his skin.

His mouth moved, and in Huo Yan's sight, he took a step back and hid himself in the darkness, feeling resentful in his heart.
