Chapter 282 I Can’t Beat My Master
After hearing Yan Li's words, Gu Luo and the other two fell silent!
"Go ahead." Yan Li sat down next to them and motioned for them to speak.
"Lier, we just like you." Gu Luo said with a smile.
"I'm not a three-year-old child anymore. You can't fool me with this reason." Yan Li couldn't help but rolled her eyes when she heard that.
Upon hearing this, Patriarch Gu sighed.
He raised his hand and set up a protective barrier in Sigui Pavilion.
"Li'er, do you have a jade pendant engraved with a phoenix?" The head of the Gu family looked at Yan Li.
"Are you talking about this?" Upon hearing this, Yan Li took out the jade pendant left by her mother.
The three members of the Gu family couldn't hide their excitement when they saw this.
"Li'er, drop a drop of blood in and take a look." Old Man Gu said to Yan Li excitedly.
Upon hearing this, Yan Li pierced her finger and a drop of blood fell into the jade pendant.
The three members of the Gu family all looked at the drop of blood nervously, only to see that drop of blood directly merge into the jade pendant.
Then a magical scene appeared. The flying phoenix on the jade pendant came to life and flew out of the jade pendant.
After the phoenix flew out of the jade pendant, it transformed into an exquisite young man.
"I didn't expect that after waiting for tens of thousands of years, I would end up waiting for a little girl." Fenghuang looked at Yan Li and frowned.
"What's wrong with the little girl? Can't the little girl grow up? The little girl is also your master." Yan Li said to Fenghuang.
"That's true." Phoenix smiled when he heard that.
"Then, little master, my name is Qingfeng." Qingfeng looked at Yan Li with a smile.
"Qingfeng, why are you in the jade pendant?" Yan Li looked at Qingfeng curiously.
"I was sealed inside." Qing Feng replied.
"What's going on?" Yan Li looked at the head of the Gu family.
But she remembered that Wan Shizhi said that this jade pendant was a symbol of status for the direct descendants of the Gu family.
"Child, your mother's name is Gu Yanran, she is my only daughter, and I am your biological grandfather." The head of the Gu family looked at Yan Li with red eyes.
"Could it be that my mother gave birth to twins?" Yan Li looked at the head of the Gu family.
"Twins?" Patriarch Gu was completely confused upon hearing this.
"Yes, I remember that Gu Xin also said yesterday that you are her grandfather." Yan Li replied.
Upon hearing this, Patriarch Gu couldn't help but feel ashamed!
I almost forgot about Gu Xin.
"She is not." Patriarch Gu shook his head.
"She is not?" Yan Li was even more confused.
"Li'er, you don't have to doubt it, you are my aunt's only daughter." Gu Luo looked at Yan Li with a smile.
"As for Gu Xin, she is just a substitute to deal with the Su family." Gu Shan said immediately.
"What do you mean?" Yan Li's eyes were full of curiosity.
"At the beginning, my aunt had an engagement with the Su family, but she didn't fulfill it later. The Su family was very angry. After learning that my aunt had given birth to a daughter, they demanded that her daughter must marry into the Su family after she reaches the age of 15." Gu Shan explained.
"Have you agreed?" Yan Li raised her head and looked at the head of the Gu family.
"I didn't agree. It was the ancestor who agreed. Since the ancestor was a close friend of the Su family's ancestor, and Yanran was wrong in this matter, he agreed." The head of the Gu family replied.
"So it seems that the ancestor of the Gu family really deserves a beating." Yan Li muttered.
The three heads of the Gu family who were standing by felt ashamed when they heard Yan Li's muttering.
"So in order to fulfill this agreement with the Su family, you just picked up a girl of my age to raise?" Yan Li looked at the head of the Gu family.
"She wasn't just picked up casually. Gu Xin is the granddaughter of our Gu family's former housekeeper." The head of the Gu family said with a smile.
"So what are you going to do now?" Yan Li looked at them.
Now that I have figured out the situation of the Gu family, I want to slip away.
Anyway, the position that belongs to me is already occupied.
"Li'er, we can't let you go home openly before you reach the age of 15. Therefore, we want you to acknowledge grandpa as your godfather so that you can enjoy the treatment of a young lady of the Gu family openly." Gu Luo looked at Yan Li lovingly.
"What if I have a conflict with Gu Xin?" Yan Li looked at them.
"Just don't beat him to death." Gu Luo answered very straightforwardly.
"What if other members of the Gu family bully me?" Yan Li continued to ask.
"It doesn't matter if the others are beaten to death." Gu Luo spoke again.
"Li'er, you must not let the old ancestor discover your identity, otherwise it will be troublesome if he forces you to marry into the Su family." Patriarch Gu looked at Yan Li intently.
"Can he beat Venerable Gu Cang?" Yan Li looked at the head of the Gu family.
"Venerable Gu Cang? Of course we can't defeat him." The head of the Gu family shook his head.
"That's good." Yan Li spread his hands.
"What do you mean?" After hearing Yan Li's words, the three heads of the Gu family were confused.
"Venerable Gu Cang is my master. If that old man dares to bully me, I will contact my master and beat him up." Yan Li said while clenching her fists.
The three heads of the Gu family: ...
Venerable Gu Cang is Li'er's master?
What a great backer!
In fact, what they don’t know is that Yan Li’s biggest backer is not Venerable Gu Cang, but the entire Yueming.
"Although this is the case, it is better to have less trouble than more. We should try to conceal it as much as possible." The head of the Gu family said with a smile.
"Okay then." Yan Li nodded when she heard that.
"Li'er, can you call me grandpa now?" Patriarch Gu looked at Yan Li expectantly.
"Shouldn't it be grandpa?" Yan Li looked at him with her big eyes blinking.
"You are now my granddaughter, not my granddaughter-in-law, so you should call me grandpa." The head of the Gu family looked at her lovingly.
"Okay, Grandpa." Yan Li called directly.
Just two simple words, and Patriarch Gu's eyes instantly turned red.
"Li'er, I will announce in public tomorrow that I will recognize you as my granddaughter." The head of the Gu family said with a smile.
"Okay." Yan Li nodded.
"Li'er, what about us?" Gu Luo and Gu Shan looked at Yan Li with anticipation.
"Brother Gu Luo, Brother Gu Shan." Yan Li fulfilled their wishes.
When Gu Luo and the others heard the word "brother", they smiled happily.
"By the way, Gu Zhu and Gu Chen are also members of the Gu family, right?" Yan Li suddenly asked.
"Yes, they are also your brothers." The head of the Gu family nodded.
"Brother Gu Zhu is so showy, but Brother Gu Chen is more normal." Yan Li said with a smile.
"Puchi...showoff, hahaha..." Hearing Yan Li's evaluation of Gu Zhu, Gu Shan laughed out loud.
"They are really showy, but they are very nice. They gave me a lot of shiny treasures." Yan Li said with a smile.
"Li'er, we have also prepared a lot of sparkling treasures for you." Gu Luo said as he poured out a bunch of treasures from his space, all of which were sparkling.
The same goes for Gu Shan standing next to him.
Patriarch Gu:...
It seems that these two brats already knew Li'er's preferences very well.
So the head of the Gu family also silently poured out a pile of sparkling treasures.
Looking at the three piles of sparkling treasures in front of her, Yan Li's eyes lit up!
