Chapter 135
Chapter 135: 0135 Toasting Chapter 135: 0135 Toasting Upon hearing this, Wen Peipei’s body stiffened, and her face showed some embarrassment. She looked at Su Ran with some annoyance.
“You clearly know about Xinyan and Gu Heng… Don’t tell me you still have your eye on Gu Heng p>
Her astute eyes suddenly filled with caution, looking at her with some defense.
After all, Xinyan was her most beloved granddaughter, how could she marry into the Xu Family?
The people of the Xu Family were no simple characters.
“I know you’re still angry about Xinyan and Gu Heng, but Gu Heng’s heart isn’t with you. A melon forced off its vine is not sweet. Why not just let them be.
Moreover, I’ve put a lot of effort into the Xu Family, they have a big family business, a match for you is more than adequate, so… no matter how angry you are today, you must hold it back. If there is any more trouble p>
As she spoke, her eyes narrowed, full of warning in her shrewd gaze.
“The Eldest Young Master of the Xu Family will come in a moment. You two should meet first, if it feels right, then set the marriage. Your sister and Gu Heng will also be quick about it, and then we can celebrate double happiness p>
Her granddaughter with her extravagant habits and bad conduct, probably only someone from the Xu Family could discipline her.
However, this matter still had to be settled quickly, to prevent any complications.
Su Ran laughed.
Her laugh was full of sarcasm.
Was it because she usually acted too meek? That’s why these people used her as a shield time and again.
Double happiness?
Perhaps it’s so that Su Xinyan could more rightfully be with Gu Heng?
Quite the audacity.
“This must be Miss Ran, right p>
At this moment, a male voice carrying a smile came through.
Turned to the source of the sound, Su Ran saw a man standing behind Wen Peipei, who seemed rather fair, but his eyes hid desolation and chill.
Just one look and Su Ran was certain, this man had blood on his hands.
Wen Peipei immediately took the opportunity to introduce him.
“Young Master Xu, this is my granddaughter Su Ran, Xiao Ran, this is the Eldest Young Master Xu Jie of the Xu Family, hurry up and greet Young Master Xu p>
Xu Jie was holding a glass of wine, his dark eyes gleaming with light as he unabashedly scrutinized Su Ran, and then he smiled in satisfaction.
“Miss Ran is indeed as beautiful as the rumors say, I am very pleased with you p>
Wen Peipei’s eyes instantly brightened, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
She observed Xu Jie’s reaction and a smile of success flashed in her eyes.
“Xiao Ran, come quickly and offer a toast to Young Master Xu p>
Seeing that Su Ran stood still without responding, Wen Peipei’s face collapsed immediately, she scolded sternly, her eyes filled with warning as she looked at her.
Su Ran’s limpid eyes suddenly met Wen Peipei’s, her wicked and strange look made Wen Peipei’s scalp tingle.
She saw Xu Jie’s unrestrained gaze and suddenly smiled sweetly.
“A toast, is it? Very well p>
Su Ran’s sudden beaming smile made Xu Jie’s eyes widen, his lusty gaze eager and faintly excited.
“Miss Su, why be so polite? After all, we will be family soon p>
He couldn’t resist moving closer to Su Ran, a sickly hand slowly reaching for Su Ran’s slender waist…
Su Ran’s eyes turned cold, a sharp chill flashed at the bottom of her eyes, and she suddenly grabbed his presumptuous hand, gripping it tighter.
Xu Jie’s face turned somewhat pale. He hadn’t expected a woman to possess such strength, especially upon meeting her unfathomable gaze, an eerie chill spread throughout his body.
