On the bustling street, Dongfang Shaoze gently waved his fan. His gentle, watery eyes fell upon the young girl next to him as he sighed helplessly, "Actually, I really want to reveal your identity. As a descendant of the Dongfang Family, how could you allow yourself to be bullied by a subordinate? But I think that even if you don't want to acknowledge the Dongfang Family right now, you probably won't want to acknowledge this identity either. "
Gu Ruoyun blinked and smiled, "I don't recognize the Dongfang family but I recognize you as my uncle!"
"Little girl," Dongfang Shaoze paused in his steps, "I will wait, wait for the day when you are willing to acknowledge the Dongfang Family. When that time comes, I will tell the entire world that you, Gu Ruoyun, are my, Dongfang Shaoze's, niece. You are also the pride of the Dongfang Family."
Gu Ruoyun's brows twitched but she did not say anything.
In the past, the Dongfang Family had not helped her parents. This was a hurdle in her heart that she could not get over. Perhaps, in this lifetime, she would never acknowledge the Dongfang Family...
"Alright, little girl, I know that you have many misunderstandings towards the Dongfang Family. But that's alright, I have plenty of time to wait. Right now, your maternal grandfather wants to see you, I'll take you to him first."
Hearing this, Gu Ruoyun fell silent for a moment. In the end, she nodded gently, "Alright."
…
Dongfang Family.
It didn't have the prosperity and splendor of the secular world, but it had a rich ancient charm. There were all kinds of medicinal herbs that could help people increase their strength in the garden, and even the houses were built with the extremely expensive fragrant wood.
At this moment, in the study of the Dongfang Family, the atmosphere was heavy and oppressive. An old man with a head full of hair sat in front of his desk, staring sternly at the girl in green before him. As he spoke, a faint coercion seeped out.
"You're Gu Ruoyun? Yu 'er's daughter? My granddaughter? "
Gu Ruoyun laughed icily when she sensed the coercion and replied without batting an eyelid, "I am indeed Gu Ruoyun and Dongfang Yu's daughter. However, I'm not your maternal granddaughter."
"Yun 'er!"
Hearing this, Dongfang Shaoze's expression changed. He hurriedly shot a few glances at Gu Ruoyun and stared worriedly at the old man's gradually sinking expression.
"Hmph!" Master Dongfang snorted coldly and said in a stern tone, "Little girl, is this how you treat your elders? No matter what, I'm your grandfather. This is an unchangeable fact! "
"Grandfather?" Gu Ruoyun sneered, "My maternal grandfather isn't the kind of person who would watch his daughter die without doing anything! My grandfather wasn't a coward who couldn't even protect his own daughter! I don't blame you for not having the ability to protect Niangqin, but when Niangqin was killed, you still swallowed the insult and humiliation. Are you a father? "
After Gu Ruoyun had spoken, she could clearly feel the atmosphere in the study growing heavier and heavier. It was so oppressive that it was hard to breathe...
Dongfang Shaoze couldn't help but worry. His father's temper wasn't very good, and Yun 'er wasn't someone who would back down. If the two sides were to fight, no amount of advice from him would be of any use …
At this moment, Master Dongfang's expression was an ugly sight to behold. Even Gu Ruoyun thought that the old man would fly into a rage at her. However, for some reason, he did not lose his temper in the end. He only replied coldly, "Ze'er, take her away. I don't want to see her for the time being."
"Yes, Father."
Dongfang Shaoze wiped the sweat from his forehead and led Gu Ruoyun out of the study. When the cold wind blew past, he suddenly realized that he was drenched in cold sweat. He then laughed bitterly.
"Yun 'er, are you trying to scare your uncle to death? My father's temper isn't very good but he doesn't have a bad heart. There was a reason behind what happened that year. "
