Chapter 514 - 514 514 A Carrot and Stick Approach

Chapter 514: Chapter 514: A Carrot and Stick Approach Chapter 514: Chapter 514: A Carrot and Stick Approach Ning Wanru spoke softly, “Yalan is such a stubborn child. After you spoke to me, I told her about it, and who would have thought, she took it to heart. She’s actually quite fond of Luo Fan and told me there’s no one else in her heart but him…”

Although that sounds somewhat unreasonable, there’s nothing I can do, ah, we’ve been young once too, we should understand, shouldn’t we…”

Grandma Luo smiled somewhat awkwardly, “Yalan is a good kid.”

“Right, Yalan is a good child, and Luo Fan is too. Those two being together would certainly be a match made in heaven,” Ning Wanru said with shining eyes.

Grandma Luo wasn’t very clear about other matters concerning the Gu Family.

But her husband had told her to limit her interactions with Ning Wanru, as she had a mysterious background and many issues surrounding her.

Without going into details, she had a fair understanding of what he meant.

So Grandma Luo felt somewhat uneasy.

After all, her Luo Family didn’t have to have Gu Yalan at all costs.

And she had never heard her grandson Luo Fan mention Gu Yalan.

“I need to ask Luo Fan about this,” said the old lady after a long struggle to find words.

Ning Wanru’s complexion darkened a bit.

In just over half a year, their attitude had changed so much.

Was it really a case of kicking someone when they’re down?

But she quickly masked her gloomy emotions with a smile.

Forming a marital alliance with the Luo Family would be an excellent move now.

It was like a lifesaver; she couldn’t give up even the slightest chance.

The Luo Family and the Gu Family had good relations, and she wanted to use this to disgust Gu Qingfeng.

Moreover, it was Grandma Luo who had initially brought it up.

Why should she agree when she wants to and back out when she pleases?

Things in this world are not so easy.

While sneering internally, Ning Wanru knew that she couldn’t sway her with mere words now.

If everything depended on the children’s wishes, then this matter had no chance of success.

Because she knew that Luo Fan wasn’t at all interested in Gu Yalan.

But now, the decision was out of her hands.

Ning Wanru suddenly began to sigh and lament, her voice filled with sorrow, “I really had no choice. I know it’s only right when there’s mutual affection to form a marriage alliance, but Yalan is deeply in love already. If I hadn’t told her what you said initially, she would have had a boyfriend by now, you know there are quite a few boys who pursued her in university, this is all my fault.”

Grandma Luo still smiled awkwardly.

But she couldn’t deny that Gu Yalan was very beautiful and gentle in temperament.

Although she didn’t know her well inside, on the surface, she seemed like an outstanding girl.

For one woman desired by many, it’s quite normal to have suitors.

At this moment, she somewhat resented herself for speaking too hastily.

Grandma Luo quickly tried to console her, “Wanru, don’t be sad, it’s also my fault. Rest assured, I’ll take this matter to heart.”

“Big sister, just keeping it in your heart isn’t enough, you must take it seriously and act on it.”

“But this has to be agreed upon by Luo Fan, you know that child, he might seem jolly all the time, but when it really comes down to serious matters, he doesn’t listen to anyone,” the old lady said, visibly troubled.

“Big sister, I don’t know about other things, but I do know that Luo Fan respects you. As long as you speak up, he will definitely agree. Moreover, before I die, this is the only thing I ask of you, big sister,” Ning Wanru said with a hint of sadness.
