Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
At five o’clock in the afternoon, Gu Shiyan canceled his business dinner and got off work on ti to go back to Lingyue Manor.
When he entered, he saw Gu Ziheng sitting in the living room with a nervous expression.
Gu Jinxi, on the other hand, widened his eyes in anger. He crossed his arms and sat opposite him aggressively.
It was as if he wanted to kill him with his gaze.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, the two of them looked in the direction of the door at the sa ti.
Seeing that it was him and not Lu Miao, Gu Jinxi pursed his lips and retreated back onto the sofa in disappointnt.
Gu Ziheng heaved a sigh of relief.
After knowing that Lu Miao had used her own blood as a dicinal ingredient for him, he was completely won over by her.
He wanted to see Lu Miao and apologize to her imdiately, but he was afraid of seeing her. He did not know how to apologize in a way that she would accept.
Shen Qinghe poked her head out of the kitchen to take a look. She greeted him and went back to the kitchen.
Gu Shiyan walked around the two on the sofa and went straight upstairs.
No wonder Gu Jinxi would let Gu Ziheng in. It turned out that he had co with Shen Qinghe.
Baili had already sent his clothes and supplies over as instructed.
He went upstairs to change his clothes before going down.
Gu Ziheng was already sitting there uncomfortably.
When he saw that he had finally co over, he called out softly,” Second
Brother. ”
Gu Shiyan humd.
He didn’t say a single word, nor did he reprimand him.
But this made Gu Ziheng feel even more uneasy and uncomfortable.
He looked up at Gu Shiyan and took a deep breath. He mustered his courage and said,” Second Brother, I’m sorry. I know I was wrong. I shouldn’t have allowed Xingyu to treat Lu Miao like that. I really didn’t an to throw a tantrum at her yesterday. I just wanted to calm Xingyu down for the ti being and then slowly explain to her. I didn’t want to hurt her.”
“I’m not the one you should be apologizing to.”
Gu Shiyan’s voice was warm and cold. “Your fault is not whether you threw a tantrum at her or whether you used any delaying tactics. It lies in not personally understanding a person or a situation and choosing to blindly believe others’ words. This shows a complete lack of responsibility, both towards yourself and others. Two years ago, you trusted the people around you and drank that poisoned water, causing your throat to go bad. I thought you would learn your lesson. It has been two years, but you didn’t learn at all.
You’ve made the sa mistake again.”
Gu Ziheng’s body stiffened instantly, unable to believe what he was hearing. He stuttered, “Second Brother, are you… are you saying that the poison… was given to by my manager?”
Shortly after the incident, his manager terminated their contract and moved to another popular actor’s agency.
He had occasionally doubted and suspected it in his heart, but ultimately chose to believe otherwise.
Later, that manager was exposed in a scandal with the ntioned artist, and both of them were forced to leave the industry. He didn’t think much of it at the ti.
Now that he thought about it, it was actually Second Brother who was avenging him.
It turned out that he had been the one who had been naiVe all along.
“Second brother, I…”
“By trusting others, indulging Xingyu, and hurting Miao Miao, you will be punished with twenty strikes of the disciplinary ruler in the ancestral hall. Reflect for a week. Do you have any objections?” Gu Shiyan looked at him indifferently.
“No, I don’t.”
Gu Ziheng shook his head. Whether it was trusting soone around him and being hard two years ago or trusting Gu Xingyu and hurting Lu Miao two years later, he truly deserved the punishnt.
He stood up, about to leave and accept his punishnt.
“Also, Miaomiao is your second sister-in-law and your elder. It’s disrespectful for a junior to call an elder by her na. You will receive an additional punishnt of ten strikes of the disciplinary ruler.”
Gu Shiyan paused for a mont.” She has already given you a chance. In the future, unless she is willing, you can never ntion the dicine to her.”
Gu Ziheng nodded with a pale face.” I understand, Second Brother.”
Compared to receiving the disciplinary strikes and reflecting on his mistakes in the ancestral hall, this final punishnt was the heaviest for him.
Even though he desperately wanted to treat his throat, his second brother was right.
His second Sister-in-law had already given him a chance, but he did not cherish it. Now that Second Brother was punishing him like this, even if his voice could not recover for the rest of his life, he deserved it.
“You should go back first and co back after receiving your punishnt.”Gu Shiyan spoke.
Gu Ziheng left in a daze.
Back when his throat was damaged, he had also experienced breakdowns and suffered in agony, drinking alcohol and getting drunk every day.
Now, suddenly discovering that he had been betrayed and manipulated by the person he once trusted the most, it would be false to say that he wasn’t feeling any sadness.
Shen Qinghe washed her hands and ca out of the kitchen. She had heard everything Gu Shiyan had just said.
She had no objections to Gu Ziheng’s punishnt.
She simply reminded him, “I had Auntie Xiu prepare so nourishing food for Miao Miao. When she cos back from school, make sure she eats it. This child just can’t seem to gain weight, and you two are here, so try not to rely on takeout all the ti. If necessary, I’ll have Auntie Xiu co over.”
“Got it. I’m already looking for a nanny.” Gu Shiyan replied.
Shen Qinghe repeatedly reminded him. Before she went out, she poked Gu Shiyan’s arm.
She raised her hand to cover her mouth and whispered, “Miao Miao is the daughter-in-law I’ve chosen. If you can’t settle this, then stay single for the rest of your life.”
Gu Shiyan was speechless.
When Lu Miao returned ho from school, Shen Qinghe had already left with Gu Ziheng.
She did not know that Gu Shiyan had punished Gu Ziheng for her.
However, during dinner, she felt that this dish was a little familiar. She thn1Wht for a mont and said ” Thank Allntie Shen for I’m fine here Tell
her not to worry.”
Gu Shiyan raised his hand and used his fingers to wipe away the slight grease on the corner of her lips.
He raised his eyebrows.” I helped you clean up and take care of your food and drink every day. Why don’t you thank ?”
“You can go back and not take care of ,” Lu Miao replied rcilessly.
Gu Shiyan…
As expected, she was still as heartless as ever.
It was rare for Gu Jinxi to see his second brother being defeated, so he laughed gloatingly at his misfortune.
Lu Miao turned to look at him.” I’m fine living alone.”
She had finally found an excuse to move out. Now, these two people were clinging to her side. What was going on?
Gu Jinxi shut up decisively and pretended not to hear anything. He obediently reached out and picked up a fresh bamboo shoot with his chopsticks and placed it in Lu Miao’s bowl.
After dinner, Lu Miao greeted Gu Shiyan and the others before returning to her room, leaving the task of washing the dishes to the two young masters.
The order of the first elimination round was arranged according to the registration ti,
The order of the first round of elimination races was arranged according to the ti of registration.
Lu Miao’s race was scheduled for the afternoon.
She attended classes in the morning, and after school, she asked for leave from her horoom teacher.
Seeing that she was about to leave, Su MO quickly said, “Boss.”
Lu Miao looked up at her as she packed her things.” What’s the matter?”
Su MO hesitated for a mont, her words swirling in her mouth, but in the end, she simply said, “It’s nothing, I just wanted to ask about Shen Muhan’s situation.”
“He will be fine,” Lu Miao reassured her.
Su MO nodded heavily, “Okay, I believe you.”
If Boss said it would be fine, then it would definitely be fine.
After Lu Miao left the school, she found a place to change her clothes and put on her makeup before heading to the competition venue..
