Seeing her grandfather laughing heartily, Liu Ruyan knew perfectly well that the old man was teasing her. Annoyed, she lightly punched him and scolded him playfully:

"Grandpa, you're teasing me again!"

The old man smiled, held his granddaughter's hand, and gave her some instructions.

"Alright, alright, I won't tease you anymore. The Luo family has indeed broken off the engagement, but Ruyan, Grandpa still wants to remind you that you must think twice before acting, especially in public."

"Ruyan understands."

Liu Ruyan nodded emphatically.

After this experience, she was truly terrified.

I almost ruined my entire life in a muddle. How could I not be afraid?

"It's good that you admit your mistakes and can correct them."

Liu Wenshan said with relief, and then, holding her hand, asked about Ye Shu.

"Ruyan, Grandpa is very curious about something. Since you know it was your fault and you know that Ye Shu was not actually targeting you, why didn't you invite him back and let him leave?"

"Of course, Grandpa knows you hate him."

"Grandpa just wants to know why you hate him?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Ruyan was not surprised at all.

Grandpa is always like this; his eyes are only on Ye Shu, Ye Shu.

The first thing I did when I got home was ask where Ye Shu had gone.

She would only eat when he arrived.

If she hadn't just confessed, the first thing her grandfather would have asked her would definitely have been about Ye Shu!

She is clearly his biological granddaughter!

But no matter what that guy did, whether it was eating the snacks she had eaten or wearing the slippers she had used, Grandpa always sided with him.

It made her even suspect that Ye Shu was her grandfather's illegitimate grandson!

"grandfather."

Liu Ruyan took a deep breath and decided to tell the truth.

"I just hate him. I hate his self-righteousness, I hate his lazy and idle attitude, I hate that even though he has nothing, he exudes an air of contempt and superiority. What right does he have to look down on me? I hate him!"

The old man nodded thoughtfully.

He glanced at his granddaughter and said incisively:

"But these are not the main reasons."

"Otherwise, why would you have tolerated it until now? There must be some deeper reason that made you decide to fire him, instead of letting him continue to hang around you like before, even if you were furious, right?"

Liu Ruyan suddenly froze on the spot.

She clearly hadn't expected her grandfather to be able to see right through her.

Yes, if that's all there is to it.

Of course, she can coexist peacefully with Ye Shu.

Just treat it like having a dog at home!

No, it can't be a dog, because even if she likes dogs, she wouldn't like him.

Everything reflects Luo Chen's innermost thoughts.

From Luo Chen's inner thoughts, she heard about the future of the Liu family following Ye Shu.

But the problem is, how do I tell Grandpa?

Liu Ruyan was somewhat troubled.

I can't just tell Grandpa directly that because I can hear Luo Chen's thoughts, our Liu family will be destroyed in the future due to Ye Shu's enemies' revenge, right?

Grandpa would definitely think she's an idiot.

Liu Wenshan remained silent, waiting for her to speak.

After a moment, Liu Ruyan carefully considered her words.

"If that were all, I could certainly continue to get along with him like this, and maybe we could even be friends. But the night before last, I suddenly had a dream."

Although the dream is absurd, the older generation believes in it the most.

This was the best excuse Liu Ruyan could think of.

"Oh? What dream? Tell me about it."

Sure enough, the old man asked with some curiosity.

"I dreamt that in the future, I became husband and wife with that guy Ye Shu..." Liu Ruyan's face was a little red, but she still continued, "In the dream, he was very powerful, and then... then one day he suddenly left. After he left, his former enemies came back with a vengeance. Unable to find him, they vented all their anger on the Liu family... The Liu family couldn't survive..."

After saying that, Liu Ruyan cautiously looked at the old man's expression.

It was different from what she had imagined.

The old man was neither furious nor found it absurd.

He simply sat there, his gaze calm, seemingly deep in thought about the future she described in her dream.

After a long while, Liu Wenshan slowly spoke.

"Ruyan...did you see in your dream why he left?"

Liu Ruyan was taken aback.

She seemed surprised that her grandfather's focus was on this.

Rather than the destruction of the Liu family.

Is the fate of the Liu family less important than Ye Shu's whereabouts?

"Why else would he leave? After becoming the number one in the world, his power and connections reached their peak. He felt this world was meaningless, so he left to live a carefree life in another world, leaving me here to fend for myself!"

Liu Ruyan said this in a fit of pique.

Upon hearing this, the old man burst into laughter, tears streaming down his face. "You mean to say that Ye Shu will become an unparalleled figure in the world, and then, after he's had his fill, he'll leave, leaving the whole world to our Liu family?"

? ? ? ?

Liu Ruyan was filled with questions and asked anxiously:

"Grandpa, have you even grasped the important point? The important point is that our Liu family will be wiped out by his enemies!"

"Of course I understand the key points."

The old man's smile faded, and his expression turned serious.

"Ruyan, are you blaming Ye Shu?"

"He caused the downfall of our Liu family, shouldn't we blame him?"

Liu Ruyan countered with a question.

"Of course not." The old man's eyes were piercing.

"You can't just enjoy the benefits others bring without taking on the corresponding responsibilities."

"There has never been such a logic throughout history. Looking back at the Qin Dynasty, the Qin Dynasty only lasted for two generations. How many people blamed the Qin Emperor for dying young? People only lamented that the son was not like his father and was an incompetent ruler."

"If he had left behind such a vast fortune, granting the Liu family such high positions and protection, yet the Liu family still couldn't establish itself, and even perished because of his departure..."

"That only proves that we are not worthy."

"Not that he was wrong."
