Chapter 288 Will You Sacrifice Everything for Jue?
Hearing that, the Elderly Mr. Si suddenly looked up at Gu Nian. "You?"
Gu Nian nodded. "Yes. I know I do have a terrible past. But I've figured that I love Jue, so I can change for the better for him. I'll try to be a better woman to be worthy of Jue."
Her words touched Si Yejue deeply. He looked at her, saying, "Nian, you're good enough, and I like the way you are."
The Elderly Mr. Si was speechless and even wanted to pour cold water on his idea.
Gu Nian looked up at Si Yejue, chuckling, "I'm willing to be a better woman to be worthy of you so that no other women can get any chance to disdain our relationship. I'll be the best to overshadow my rivals in love, and then they'll know they don't even deserve to compete for your love with me!"
Gu Nian's voice was a mixture of coldness and sweetness, but the Elderly Mr. Si could feel the firmness and decisiveness in her voice.
The Elderly Mr. Si looked at Gu Nian up and down again and sensed the sudden change in her air. This wasn't the first time that the Elderly Mr. Si had seen Gu Nian, so he knew what she used to be like.
At that time, she was very ugly and always impressed others with her diffidence and sluggishness. But now, she had changed from a timid girl into a charming one. So the Elderly Mr. Si thought he could settle for the idea of Jue marrying her if she could always be so disposing.
Thinking of this, the Elderly Mr. Si grunted, waiting anxiously for Gu Nian to give him an out instead of exchanging amorous glances with Si Yejue.
Gu Nian looked up and asked the Elderly Mr. Si, "Grandpa Si, what should I do to get your approval?"
The Elderly Mr. Si immediately replied, "Are you willing to do anything for Jue?"
"Grandpa!"
Gu Nian nodded. "Yes." She believed that the Elderly Mr. Si wouldn't make things too difficult for her.
But Butler Cao interrupted them hurriedly, "Elderly Mr. Si, you can't believe her. She..."
Gu Nian turned to look at Butler Cao coldly. "Who allows a guard dog to interrupt while your masters are talking?"
"Nian, don't call him a guard dog. It is an insult to me," the dog said helplessly on the ground. Dogs hated it when people always described bad guys as dogs, which was just an insult to dogs who were kinder than those bad guys.
Gu Nian smiled helplessly. "Well, I won't call him that again."
The Elderly Mr. Si was confused about her words, asking, "What did you say?"
Smiling, Gu Nian hurriedly said, "I meant that if I can call you grandpa like Jue after I do as you say?"
Gu Nian knew the Elderly Mr. Si hated her for stealing the confidential information of the Si Corporation and bothering Si Yejue. Besides, rumors about her life in the countryside even deepened such a situation. So the only way she could please the Elderly Mr. Si was to show her best side to him.
"Nian..."
Gu Nian squinted up at Si Yejue with a smile. "Just believe me. I'll make it. Besides, isn't it touching to watch your beloved woman do something romantic for you?"
After being silent for quite a while, the Elderly Mr. Si said, "As long as you run Phantom Company well without Jue's help, I won't hate you, and you can call me grandpa."
