Back to the 70s: My Childhood Sweetheart Spoils Me Rotten

Chapter 1118 - 1120: In Perfect Harmony

Looking at this troublesome child in front of her, Gong Ruini wished she hadn’t let him be born.

Was it easy being his elder sister? She took care of him with all the good food and drinks, raising him to be chubby and healthy.

When he grew older, she taught him knowledge and the principles of being a good person, and this was the heartbreakingly poor return she got.

"What are you talking about?" Zhao Xuran came in from outside the courtyard, dusty and worn, just to hear his brother-in-law muttering continuously.

Wow, brother-in-law, heaven really favored him a bit. Knowing his thoughts, it actually brought brother-in-law here.

Gong Ruini was absolutely surprised. How come he’s back?

Wasn’t there something he needed to take care of? Was he not going to handle it?

Obviously, she had already told him about it yesterday, and also said that adults would handle it, so why did the grandson rush back?

Who informed him of his return yesterday, was it Zhan Jing?

"Brother-in-law." Gong Ruzhi knew he couldn’t let his older sister take the lead, otherwise brother-in-law would definitely listen to her.

Even if he would later use various reasons to make you feel he agreed with her because it was right, but it’s actually all nonsense.

"Brother-in-law, my sister said Brother Guang Ran forgave Cao Na."

"Do you think that’s possible?"

"Back then, she bullied Brother Guang Ran so excessively, if Gong Ruigang doesn’t retaliate, that’s already good enough, how could he forgive?"

"I just think my sister is definitely talking nonsense."

"Exactly, exactly." Wan Yihui on the side was relentlessly cheering.

Gong Ruini was all kinds of helpless at the back. Someone wanted to speak first, so let them do it. Anyway, she could just directly call Zhao Guangran later.

Didn’t that guy always ignore the time difference, picking up the phone whenever? Well, she had to retaliate once, otherwise, the guy would never learn to consider the time difference.

Gong Ruini talking nonsense? Zhao Xuran really didn’t think Gong Ruini would do such a thing. If she truly wanted to persuade, she would have said it long ago, why wait a year?

Zhao Xuran looked at Gong Ruini, hoping the latter would give him an explanation.

Gong Ruini felt helpless and could only repeat what happened yesterday.

Gong Ruzhi got excited, feeling frustrated and said, "Sister, you’re just too gullible."

"How can you believe what she says is true?"

"If she says Guang Ran called, then it’s him who called."

"Even if it’s Guang Ran who called, would they talk for long?"

Gong Ruzhi felt they shouldn’t even be able to peacefully make that call, worrying the two would end up arguing over the phone.

"Brother Guang Ran hates being deceived, he wouldn’t give the other person a chance."

"Right."

How come this kid says nothing but ’right’, ’exactly’? Gong Ruini really got a headache from Gong Ruzhi and Wan Yihui’s singing in unison.

"You can just call Zhao Guangran directly."

"Do you think Cao Na’s sayings are definite? Guang Ran said he would take her to play the stock market, wouldn’t we verify with Zhao Guangran?"

"If she’s talking nonsense and Zhao Guangran contradicts her, do you think she’d still have the face to see us?" Gong Ruini wasn’t stupid, nothing Cao Na says is naturally true.

\

Indeed, Gong Ruzhi felt embarrassed by Gong Ruini’s words. He truly became as embarrassed as he could be.

"You said Guang Ran called yesterday to ask about my grandpa’s situation?" Zhao Xuran really didn’t expect that this matter even reached Zhao Guangran in the United States, he was truly baffled.

Ni Zi being able to inform him was already good enough, definitely wouldn’t let Zhao Guangran know before there’s a unified stance at home.

As for Gong Ruzhi and Wan Yihui, they wouldn’t notify, it could only be the twins.

"Weren’t they very busy lately?" Zhao Xuran was just about to blame the twins when he suddenly remembered they were indeed very busy.

"They were busy, which is why they came to ask me at midnight yesterday."

"After asking a few questions, they left." Gong Ruzhi is still confused, still trying to figure out why the twins, after asking so many questions, left so abruptly.

Now Gong Ruini knew they must have gone to inform Zhao Guangran, otherwise, he wouldn’t have called them in the middle of the night.

Hmph, the twins are really excessive, knowing they desperately lack sleep yet still not considering the time.

Zhao Xuran understood, looking at Gong Ruzhi.

Gong Ruzhi didn’t want to go and call the twin brothers, knowing that if he disrupted their experiments, the result would be disastrous, and he really didn’t want to experience that.

But Zhao Xuran was waiting right beside him, just looking at him. Helplessly, Gong Ruzhi had to go and notify the twins.

Wan Yihui could not go, but how could he stay alone in the room with just Gong Ruini and Zhao Xuran, that would be really awkward.

Rather than giving them any stimulation, it’s better to go out and exercise.

Wan Yihui helplessly followed them out to run, Gong Ruini just thought their relationship was good, so they followed.

She was just about to ask Zhao Xuran if he was tired, rushing back overnight, must have been quite exhausting, with previous matters to handle, and troubles all the way.

Zhao Xuran was quite content that the two light bulbs left them space.

With a tight embrace, he held Gong Ruini, placing his head on hers.

For this position, Gong Ruini really didn’t like it. It outright indicated she was short, fat, and round.

"Don’t move, Ni Zi, I’m so tired."

"You know when I got my uncle’s call, I was terrified."

What, got a call from uncle? Gong Ruini just remembered that she didn’t see Cai Ming in the morning.

Could it be they haven’t returned yet? Oh gosh, why does it take so long to handle things?

Gong Ruini didn’t understand. The Zhao Family was difficult, but many people were easy to deal with.

Zhao Gang, such a sharp-tongued person, if he can’t easily handle them, it really undermines the reputation he’s made.

"Mr. Zhao’s health isn’t great."

"Sometimes, when he gets a little too excited, his condition worsens."

Ah, Zhao Gang’s father is in poor health? Is he trying to hold his last breath to come to Beijing, hoping Zhao Gang, the eldest son, would take care of his stepmother and several half-siblings?

Gong Ruini really wanted to have a good talk with this so-called Mr. Zhao. If a father doesn’t raise his son, can the son not care for this father in the future, especially when this father isn’t short of money?

Even if life isn’t as glamorous as before, at least he still has the treatment he deserves.

Although she couldn’t see Gong Ruini’s expression, since she hadn’t spoken for a while, Zhao Xuran was sure she must think Mr. Zhao’s health was already failing.

"If possible, I hope this cheap grandfather just passes away, it would be better." Only dead people wouldn’t trouble others.

Unfortunately, Mr. Zhao’s health report shows though his health isn’t very good, he can live another ten years.

Still able to live that long, Gong Ruini suddenly felt all sorts of negativity toward Mr. Zhao.

Since his health isn’t as bad, why does he keep pretending? Does he hope Zhao Gang would let her go seeing his health isn’t good?
