Facing his grandson’s questioning, Gu Hai’s face became very ugly.
"Bastard! Is this how you speak to your elder?!"
Gu Yixuan sneered, "If you don’t meddle in my affairs, perhaps I would remember that you are an elder. But if you interfere, I don’t care who you are!"
Gao Meiru lowered her eyes, hiding the laughter in them. The more strained the relationship between Gu Yixuan and Gu Hai became, the more it benefited her.
Gao Zhenzhen stood up, frowning slightly, "Xuan, how can you speak to Grandpa like that. No matter what, he’s still your elder. Actually, we invited Miss Mo over just as a guest, with no other intentions. Grandpa just wanted to see what kind of woman you like."
Mo Ran’s lips curled slightly, revealing a hint of a cold smile.
She sure knew how to lie with her eyes wide open; they had just tried to kill her, and now they claimed they had merely invited her as a guest, with no other intentions.
Naturally, Gu Yixuan didn’t believe Gao Zhenzhen’s words. How could he not know what kind of people Gu Hai and Gao Meiru were?
Her lies in defense of them only increased his aversion.
Glancing at her dismissively, he scoffed, "What kind of people they are, do I not know? Perhaps, you’re the same kind of person as them."
"Xuan, how could you think of me like that?!" Gao Zhenzhen’s complexion changed, her finger pointing at Mo Ran, "Everything I’ve done, I’ve done for your sake. Do you really want to fall out with Grandpa over her?"
"Spare me these words. Just because you see him as Grandpa doesn’t mean I do." The word ’Grandpa’ tasted ironic as he spoke it.
"Bastard, you’re really a bastard!" Gu Hai was fuming, "You dare speak to me this way because of a woman. If I don’t get rid of her today, there will be endless troubles! Come, take them both down!"
"Who dares!" Gu Yixuan bellowed, a cold fierceness flashing in his eyes.
The bodyguards were too scared to step forward; after all, they were well aware of Young Master Xuan’s fearsome reputation, and none wanted to provoke him if it could be helped.
"Take him down!" Gu Hai refused to believe he couldn’t handle this rebellious brat.
A bodyguard rushed forward and was flipped to the ground with one hand. The gun at his waist was quickly drawn by Gu Yixuan and aimed at another onrushing man.
"Anyone who advances, I’ll shoot!" Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on novelꜰire.net
Somebody disregarded his threat and took two steps forward.
"Bang—" Gu Yixuan shot him in the right leg, not even blinking an eye.
