Gu Ruoyun shrugged her shoulders, "You've already called me a damned girl, why should I show it to you?"
"You..." The old man was so angry that his face turned ashen. He glared at her and said, "What do you want then? Don't forget, I'm your maternal grandfather! So what if you show the jade pendant to your maternal grandfather? "
"Sigh," Gu Ruoyun shook her head and sighed, "I had wanted to persuade maternal grandmother to descend the mountain but I've always been a timid person. I'm so afraid of your yelling and scolding. I can't stay in the Dongfang family any longer or I'll be scared to death by you. I've decided to leave now. As for maternal grandmother... I think you should persuade her to descend the mountain yourself."
The old man's face turned from green to white, then from white to green again.
He could imagine how angry Gu Ruoyun must have been.
After all, in Dongfang City, aside from the one in the back mountain, who doesn't listen to his every word? This damned damned girl had the audacity to threaten me!
And this threat had worked!
"You're probably the only one in this world who would talk to an elder like this," The old man said angrily, "Tell me, what do I have to do for you to help me persuade your maternal grandmother to descend the mountain? She's already been here for over ten years and I can only see her three times a year. God knows how terrible this feeling is. It's already good enough that I haven't been driven crazy. "
"Next time, speak to me in a nicer tone."
"You're not allowed to decide on your uncle's marriage. You can't force him to marry someone he doesn't like and you can't stop him from marrying someone he likes, no matter what kind of person she is."
"I want absolute freedom! In other words, I won't be restricted by the Dongfang family. If my parents are still alive, you must accept my father. If they're really gone, I want them to enter the Dongfang family's ancestral hall. "
"If you can do these things, I'll help you persuade maternal grandmother to descend the mountain." Gu Ruoyun looked at Master Dongfang with a smile on her face.
Master Dongfang fell silent for a moment before he said, "Alright, I'll agree to your conditions. However, I have a request for you as well! Firstly, your maternal grandmother's birthday is in half a month. I hope that she can descend the mountain before then. Secondly, I want to announce that you're the maternal granddaughter of the Dongfang family on her birthday. "
"Alright."
Gu Ruoyun didn't even think about it before responding, "I agree to your request."
The old master was stunned. Previously, this lass refused to acknowledge him as her grandfather no matter what. Why did she agree so readily now?
Actually, if it had not been for Lan Yuge's words and Master Dongfang's obvious favoritism, Gu Ruoyun would not have accepted the Dongfang Family so easily...
"You really agreed?" The old man still couldn't believe it.
This lass had always been crafty. Could she be plotting something?
"It seems that you don't want me to agree." Gu Ruoyun sighed and replied exasperatedly, "Since that's the case, I'll take back my words. Otherwise, people would think that I'm shamelessly sticking to the Dongfang family."
"What? Retract? No way! "
Master Dongfang hurriedly put on a straight face, "Haven't you heard of the saying that a gentleman's word cannot be taken back? I can't go back on my words, so it's decided. Go and help me persuade your grandmother to come down now. I've already used up my chances for this year. I haven't seen her in months, and there's still another five or six months until next year. I really can't wait any longer. I was originally only envious of Ze 'er, and now there's you, you brat. You guys are really going to piss me off! "
PS: I need to eat first. I need to go to the supermarket to buy food for my dog. I'll continue writing later.
