Сhaptеr 14: Getting Bulliеd Васk, Littlе Fаiry Ruаn Ruаn Is а Тreasurе from Head tо Тoе
Unсlе Меng saw Lin Dеhаi аnd his two daughtеrs оff.
Gu Jinzhou сarried Su Ruanruаn on his bаck as theу went tо find Old Маdam Gu.
Su Ruanruаn clutched hеr tеddу bеar, grinning from еаr tо еar. “Gu Jinzhou, did уou nоt eat? Yоu’re walking sо slowly.”
Gu Jinzhоu: “If I go faster, саn Ruаn Ruan hаndlе it?”
Su Ruanruan’s faсe flushеd rеd.
Soonеr or latеr, she’d find sоmе рoisоn to shut Gu Jinzhou uр! Then shе’d sесretly remove his kidneys, making him раy for his constаnt flirtаtiousness!
“Don’t tаlk nоnsense in front of Grandma.”
“As long as you don’t make me angry, I’ll do as you wish—fast when you want it fast, slow when you want it slow.”
The man’s voice was low and hoarse, incredibly seductive.
Su Ruanruan’s brain struggled to keep up. She actually thought seriously about what he said before realizing that Gu Jinzhou was full of mischief—his words couldn’t be trusted!
Old Madam Gu’s smile deepened when she saw Su Ruanruan. “Come here to Grandma.”
Su Ruanruan threw herself into the old lady’s arms, acting spoiled.
Who wouldn’t love such an adorable little granddaughter? The old lady laughed even more joyfully.
“Ruan Ruan, sleep with Grandma tonight. I’ll tell you a story.”
“Yes, yes!”
Su Ruanruan secretly touched her waist. If she kept this up, she’d really develop a lumbar strain!
Gu Jinzhou took a sip of black tea and said calmly, “Grandma, Ruan Ruan isn’t a child anymore. Take a good look at her—she’s all grown up.”
Old Madam Gu was diagnosed with dementia last year. Although medication has kept it well under control and she can live normally, she often experiences memory lapses.
In her eyes, Ruan Ruan is still a four- or five-year-old girl who needs stories to fall asleep.
Su Ruanruan: “Grandma, don’t listen to Gu Jinzhou. I’m still young and need you to tell me stories.”
Old Madam Gu wrapped an arm around her shoulder and whispered, “That man, he looks so cunning and hard to get along with. Ruan Ruan, stay away from him. Don’t play with him, or he might sell you off without you even knowing!”
Su Ruanruan nodded, laughing so hard she could die.
Gu Jinzhou helplessly pinched the bridge of his nose.
He called for Aunt Wu, who took care of the old lady.
“Did Grandma take her medicine today?”
“She took it in the morning, but not at noon yet.”
Su Ruanruan held the old lady’s wrinkled hand and asked softly, “Grandma, do you remember what flower Ruan Ruan likes?”
Old Madam Gu: “I like camellias.”
Su Ruanruan chuckled. “Grandma, you’re amazing! You do like camellias, but do you remember what flower Ruan Ruan likes?”
Old Madam Gu was stumped.
She seemed to remember but couldn’t recall.
Gu Jinzhou: “Ruan Ruan likes lily of the valley.”
Old Madam Gu glared at him. “I was just about to say lily of the valley! Why did you answer first?”
She whispered in Su Ruanruan’s ear, “Sweetie, don’t be fooled by his good looks. Men like him are the best at deceiving young girls. We mustn’t fall for someone like that—he’ll trick you out of even your underwear!”
Su Ruanruan kept nodding like a little actress, her beautiful dark eyes glistening. “Grandma, every word you say is a pearl of wisdom, every sentence is sound advice!”
Old Madam Gu said proudly, “Of course! I’m very good at judging people!”
Gu Jinzhou said helplessly, “Grandma, do you remember that I’m your grandson?”
Sabotaging your own grandson’s love life—is that really okay?Old Madam Gu covered her mouth with a chuckle, “Of course I remember you. It’s precisely because I remember clearly that I understand thoroughly.”
Gu Jinzhou: “…”
Su Ruanruan laughed so hard her eyes disappeared, swaying with delight.
After chatting a while longer, the old madam grew somewhat tired, and the two left her room.
Nanny Wu: “Young Miss!”
She brought out a pot of fresh and elegant lily of the valley from the room. Its long leaves were dense and emerald green, with white buds like sleeping little fairies, delicate and graceful.
Nanny Wu: “This is the lily of the valley Old Madam sent you. She originally wanted to enjoy the blooming season with you, but you haven’t returned for so long that all the flowers have already bloomed. Fortunately, lily of the valley has a long flowering period, so it’s not too late to appreciate them now.”
Su Ruanruan held the lily of the valley, murmuring, “Thank Grandma for me.”
Nanny Wu chided gently, “What’s with all this thanking? Young Miss is being too formal.” After saying this, she returned to the room to attend to the old madam.
A large teardrop fell onto a lily of the valley bud. Su Ruanruan’s nose tingled with emotion.
Gu Jinzhou took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears. “A pot of lily of the valley moved you to tears? Ruan Ruan, you really are a little crybaby.”
Su Ruanruan: “I feel like I’ve missed out on so much. Brother Jinzhou, if I’ve done many wrong things, will you forgive me?”
“You’re calling me Brother Jinzhou now, what else can I do? I’ve been feeding you and wiping your bottom since you were little. There’s no reason not to clean up your mess now that you’re grown.”
“…”
Never mind. Gu Jinzhou simply didn’t understand what she was talking about.
During dinner that evening, the Gu household became lively, as the pair of twins whom even cats and dogs disliked had returned from school.
But this liveliness had nothing to do with Su Ruanruan.
She had gotten her period and stained a pair of underwear that Gu Jinzhou particularly liked.
“Gu Jinzhou, are you busy?”
“I need to tell you something very serious. You have to listen secretly.”
“My period stained your favorite pair of underwear. Come wash it.”
After sending the WeChat voice message, Su Ruanruan lay weakly on the bed.
Soon, a knock sounded at the door, and Gu Jinzhou walked in.
He placed the pen in his hand on the bedside table—likely having put aside work to rush over. Gu Jinzhou knelt half on the bed, his warm, clean hand slipping under the covers to gently rub her soft little belly.
“Does it hurt, baby?”
“Only a little bit.”
“But I think you’re in pain. Lie down and rest properly. After I wash the underwear, I’ll bring dinner over. You can eat in bed.”
“Okay.”
Gu Jinzhou went to the bathroom to wash the underwear. Su Ruanruan found lying in bed boring, so she walked to the bathroom door to watch him wash it.
For convenience in using the toilet and changing pads, she wore an ultra-short nightgown. The purple lace hem barely covered her perky bottom, and her sexy, pale legs were a striking sight for any man.
Gu Jinzhou glanced twice but continued calmly washing the underwear. After rinsing off the soap, he squeezed a bit more detergent to scrub away the bloodstains.
The sink had a heating system installed, making it comfortably warm.
Su Ruanruan’s back ached from standing. She rose on her tiptoes, her slender, soft white fingers resting on Gu Jinzhou’s arm, borrowing a bit of his strength to sit on the warm sink.
Honestly,
this felt quite comfortable.
She didn’t care whether the purple lace hem had ridden up to her waist, nor did she mind that her pale, plump waist and hips were making the man’s eyes burn with restraint. After all, she currently held a “get-out-of-jail-free card”—Gu Jinzhou couldn’t touch her.”What are you looking at me for? Hurry up and wash the underwear you like. The sooner you finish, the sooner they can dry. Maybe you can even wear them tomorrow.”
“Okay.” Gu Jinzhou’s voice was hoarse beyond recognition. If it weren’t for her period, she wouldn’t be wearing any underwear at all tomorrow.
“What kind of attitude is that? These are the underwear you like, not mine. Are you feeling wronged?”
Su Ruanruan kicked off her slippers, her snow-white feet stepping on the man’s chest muscles through his shirt, like a spoiled young lady bullying a male servant. What she thought was torment, the man saw as a reward.
Gu Jinzhou’s eyes were entranced, his voice low and seductive as he humbly submitted: “Not wronged at all. It’s my pleasure.”
“Huh?”
He surrendered so quickly. Su Ruanruan scratched her head—how was she supposed to bully him now?
“Then I’ll let you off today. I’ll think of another way to bully you next time.”
Gu Jinzhou grabbed her slender, snow-white ankle, his phoenix eyes narrowing dangerously. “No need to wait until next time. Didn’t you learn how to trample my dignity in the office? How about doing it again?”
“No!”
“You don’t have a choice.”
In the eyes of a mage like Gu Jinzhou, the little fairy Ruan Ruan was a treasure from head to toe.
