On the day I was caught, the heir of a wealthy family took me to get the certificate.

"I know," Li Yu raised his hand quickly and explained proudly, "This is where his father lives. He is not used to living in a nursing home, so he lives here to recuperate. Our hospital will send people to check on him regularly. I have been here too."

"Your grandfather not only wants to attack you alone, but also wants to join forces with your father to attack you?" Shen Manzi asked.

Gu Mingchen's eyes were deep, and he said in a low voice: "Maybe it's not a crusade, but another purpose."

Shen Manzi raised her eyebrows.

Soon, she patted her chest and promised, "Don't worry, I will spare no effort to belittle you and make your grandfather and your father think that your life is over. Only Su Su can want you, otherwise no one would want you if you were thrown on the street, so they won't object."

Li Yu couldn't help but twitch his lips and asked speechlessly: "Are you sure you are helping him?"

"What else?" Shen Manzi said, "Rare goods are valuable. There is a market for them only if they are in demand. If they realize that there is no market, they will naturally stop being picky."

"There won't be a market for this kind of thing?" Li Yu looked up and down at Gu Mingchen, who was handsome and elegant, and shook his head and said, "Who would believe you if you told them?"

"Then let's give it a try. With my eloquent tongue, I will definitely make them feel that he has no market." Shen Manzi said proudly.

Gu Mingchen was so angry at the two of them that he rolled his eyes. He now seriously suspected that the two of them were taking this opportunity to take revenge.

However, I am too lazy to argue with them now. I will just give it a try and let them say whatever they say.

"Susu, come with me and don't say anything. Just listen to me. If you don't want to listen, you can turn around and leave immediately without worrying about anyone's feelings."

"Yes, men are meant to protect you from wind and rain, not to bring them. If you don't like to hear it, you can leave at any time. Don't put yourself in a difficult position." Shen Manzi also said to her.

Li Yu disagreed and said, "What you said is not right. Love is a matter between two people, but marriage is not. Miss Su, the old man is not a bad person. You should be more patient and coax him. If he recognizes you, everyone will be happy. Why do you have to be unhappy?"

"It's not Susu's fault. He just didn't want to." Shen Manzi defended Su Jinchu.

Li Yu wanted to argue with her again, but the person in charge of taking care of the old man came over to remind them: "The old man asked you to go in."

The two of them had no choice but to shut up and follow him in.

Sure enough, Gu Hongze was there too.

He wore a custom-made mask on half of his face, hiding the destroyed half of his face.

Too much time has passed, and it is not easy to restore his face now. Moreover, his physical condition does not allow him to undergo such a time-consuming operation.

So just cover it up and don't scare others.

The remaining half of his face has improved a lot after careful care during this period, and has regained its former gentle and jade-like appearance. Looking at only half of his face, he is an approachable and handsome uncle.

"uncle."

Shen Manzi greets Gu Hongze.

Gu Hongze asked in surprise: "Is it Manman? You are so big now."

Shen Manzi nodded.

But Mr. Gu snorted coldly and said, "She has grown up. I overestimated her ability. I thought she could really keep an eye on Chen, but she turns out to know nothing."

"Ahem," Shen Manzi coughed lightly and replied to Mr. Gu with a smile, "Grandpa, you are wrong. It's not that I know nothing. I have always known that they are still together."

"You knew this and you didn't tell me, and you deliberately hid it from me?" Mr. Gu asked angrily.

Shen Manzi said, "Gu Mingchen and I have been deceiving you since the beginning. He gave me a lot of benefits, so I reluctantly agreed to pretend to be a couple with him to deceive you. So, how could I tell you the truth? If I tell you, won't my way of making money be cut off?"

"You...didn't you like Achen before?"

"You also said that, that was in the past. I was young and ignorant at that time, but later when I grew up, I realized that a man like Gu Mingchen who was picky, petty, treacherous, and didn't know how to be gentle with women, and what's more terrifying was that his family had complicated interpersonal relationships and there were elders who were not easy to take care of. I'm not stupid, how could I continue to like him? Don't talk about me, anyone who gets to know him will lose interest in him."

"You are talking nonsense. You are maliciously slandering me." Mr. Gu said angrily.

His precious grandson, whom he treasured like a jewel, was the best among men in his eyes. How could he be despised by others?

Shen Manzi sneered and said, "Old man, I know that hedgehogs praise children for their brightness and weasels praise children for their fragrance. In your eyes, Gu Mingchen is of course the best, but your opinion does not represent everyone's opinion. As a woman who has dated him, I think I have more say than you."

"She's going to piss me off to death. Send her away right away." Old Master Gu said angrily.

Gu Mingchen and a few others were so amused by her two-part allegorical sayings that they almost died from trying to hold back their laughter.

Hearing Grandpa Gu chasing people away, she immediately coughed and held back a laugh and said, "You look down on me, but I look down on you even more. You are so old but you don't know how to respect the old and love the young. How can you compare with our Su Su? Go away now. I won't forgive you if you make my grandfather angry."

"Tsk, you make it sound like I'm willing to mind your business."

Shen Manzi rolled her eyes and turned away.

But before leaving, he took Li Yu away with him.

Li Yu yelled, "Just go ahead, why are you pulling me along?"

"Don't you have any sense? Don't you see that the family is talking behind closed doors? What are we two outsiders doing here?"

"Grandpa, she's been chased away. Calm down and don't bother with her." Gu Mingchen immediately patted the old man's chest to calm him down.

He gave Su Jinchu a look and asked Su Jinchu to pour tea for the old man.

Su Jinchu immediately understood and quickly poured a cup of tea and brought it to Mr. Gu.

Old Master Gu looked at her docile appearance, and then thought about Shen Manzi's performance just now. The two people were really very different.

Having a grandson is enough to make him angry. If he really gets together with Shen Manzi, wouldn’t the two of them be enough to piss him off to death?

"I know you are a good child with a good temper and gentle personality. Most importantly, Achen also likes you." Old Master Gu spoke slowly.

But before he could finish, he was interrupted by Gu Mingchen: "Since you know all these good things, why do you want to break us up? Aren't you just looking for trouble?"

"I haven't finished speaking yet," Mr. Gu raised his voice.

Gu Mingchen shrugged and continued to help him calm down.

Old Master Gu looked at Su Jinchu again and said, "But, as I told you last time, the reason why I want you to break up with him is because I think you don't love him enough. Don't refute me first, you do love him, but not enough. In the choice, you have given up on him once, and this is the evidence. In addition, he loves you too much, so I am more worried that he will do irrational things for you in the future. You have to understand me, no elder wants his children to be lovesick."

"Dad, Achen has grown up. He knows what he wants and what to do." Gu Hongze, who had been silent all the time, finally couldn't help but speak up to persuade him.
