1162: Found No Reason to Refute

Found No Reason to Refute

Of course, Gu Ranzhi could not refuse his nephew's request for a hug. He crouched down, caught him steadily, and then held him in his arms.1

He extended a finger with great interest and hooked the little boy's chin.

"When did you come?"

Hearing this, the little boy did not feel anything amiss. He grabbed his uncle's finger.

"Well... I've been here for a long time."

"Uncle, what are you doing here?" He asked.

Gu Ranzhi smiled and scratched the little boy's nose at the same time.

"Uncle is here to visit an old friend."

He wasn't lying to the little boy.

However, only a certain little person knew just whether he could understand what 'old friend' meant.

Indeed, he couldn't understand it, but he definitely couldn't admit it. He nodded his little head and didn't show any guilt on his face.

"Oh, I see," he said in a very mature manner.

The members of the Gu family all felt a little awkward at this point. Second Madam Gu was the first to speak.

"Ranzhi is here!" she greeted him.

Gu Ranzhi nodded at her and replied softly, "Yes."

After that, he did not say anything to the others.

Instead, he continued to look at the little nephew in his arms.

"I heard someone talking about me from afar just now? Hmm?"

Hiss ~

The little boy secretly shook his little shoulders twice. From the corner of his eyes, he quietly observed his uncle's expression. Seeing that his uncle appeared to be fine, he cleared his throat.

"I didn't say anything bad about Uncle! Really, really!"

That little boy almost raised his hand to swear.

Seeing this, Gu Ranzhi laughed out loud.

"Alright, then I won't hold it against you."

Instantly, the little boy wrapped his arms around his uncle's neck in a fawning manner. His little face even leaned forward so he was face-to-face with Gu Ranzhi.

Pfft.

This time, not only did Gu Ranzhi laugh out loud, even the Gu family members were amused.

Especially Gu Yichen.

"Tsk tsk, why are you so obsequious in front of my cousin?" A string of words came out of his mouth, betraying his jealousy.

It was always the case, every time this boy was in front of him, he would either be cold and aloof or arrogant. He was so cocky.

Who knew that, when he was in front of his cousin, he would have a completely different style.

This difference in treatment was too unacceptable, right?

Hehe.

You're just his father's brother. How can you be compared to his mother's brother?

You have no self-awareness at all!

Hearing this deliberate teasing, the little boy snorted. His small eyes swept over Gu Yichen, then he slowly said, "Uncle, are you jealous?"

Don't think that I can't tell just because I'm young. Don't you know this skill was passed down from our ancestors?

Gu Yichen didn't admit it.

"Hey, you little brat, what do you have that I should be jealous of you?"

Jealous of your milk bottle?

The little boy rolled his eyes again.

"Hmph, aren't you jealous of my uncle for having such a talented and adorable nephew like me?"

"Uncle, you clearly admitted it yourself earlier!"

As if!

Why didn't I know about it?

"Little brat, nonsense cannot be uttered so casually!"

The little boy had never been afraid of anyone since he was born.

Therefore, he didn't take Gu Yichen's threat seriously at all.

"Uncle clearly said something before. Why is it that Ningning calls you 'father's brother', while she calls Uncle 'mother's brother'?

Doesn't this mean that Uncle is jealous that my Uncle has such a cute little nephew like me?"

Needless to say, Gu Yichen really couldn't find a reason to refute it at that moment!

That was a rough way of saying the truth!

That's exactly the reason!
