Chapter 130: 103 Domineering Beat Up Dad
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Not long after Xiao Liulang left, Lord Gu showed up.He came without the Yao Family knowing, primarily concerned about Gu Yan, forever fearing that such a poor and remote place might damage his precious son. He hoped to take Gu Yan back.
Gu Yan was the one who opened the door.
Upon seeing his father, Gu Yan quickly shut the door!
Lord Gu got so angry that he stomped his feet. Despite his yelling, the door remained closed. By the time he managed to get around to the back door, Gu Yan had already bolted himself in his room.
Lord Gu, his teeth chattering in rage: “….”
The chickens hadn’t started their daily activities yet and were quietly kept in the cage.
Lord Gu found Gu Jiao busying herself in the backyard and pointed at the closed door, saying, “You should control him!”
Gu Jiao looked at him blankly, her gaze direct and cold. Ignoring him, she fetched a shiny axe from the firewood room.
Lord Gu took a sharp breath: “You… what are you doing? Are you planning to mur…”
Before he could finish his sentence, a loud clang echoed as Gu Jiao split a piece of wood.
The wood was split evenly right down the middle, a clear sign of expert… umm, firewood chopping skills!
Lord Gu swallowed, and after a while found his voice again, saying, “This place isn’t suitable for Yanyan to live. He has been spoiled and pampered since birth, and his lifestyle is unlike that of ordinary people. His health has only recently improved somewhat. If we’re not careful, he might fall sick again. You’re his sister, don’t harm him. If you two really want to be together, move back to the villa. The villa is big and you can live in whichever courtyard you want. If you don’t like any of the current courtyards, you can even have new ones built.”
He swore that this was the most heartfelt speech he’d ever given to this girl.
He had made such a big concession; surely she would be moved now?
He didn’t yell at her, didn’t hit her, and spoke to her nicely; surely she should be satisfied now?
But who would’ve known, Gu Jiao showed no gratitude, only plainly saying, “He’s living fine here.”
Lord Gu snapped, “Look at this poor place! How can he possibly live well here?”
Gu Jiao, chopping another piece of wood: “Did his complexion improve over these years in the Marquis Residence and the villa, then?”
“I…” Lord Gu was rendered speechless by her retort.
That’s right, over the years, Gu Yan lived in the finest rooms, ate the most exquisite food, had a hoard of servants, but his health was deteriorating day by day. It was only after meeting Huichun Hall that his condition improved.
Lord Gu realized that it was pointless to argue on this. After all, fraternal twins were usually similar in their rebellious nature towards their father.
Lord Gu, hands on his hips, took a few deep breaths before asking, “Then when do you plan to return?”
He would grant their wish to stay temporarily, but there had to be a time limit, right?
Lady Shu was getting impatient at the palace, he had to take them back to the capital by June at the latest. He couldn’t let the siblings do as they pleased forever.
“He’ll go back when he wants to.” Gu Jiao didn’t mention herself, since she had no intention of going back at all.
Lord Gu then fully understood that this girl was stubborn in her defiance.
Well, he would let Mrs. Yao handle this.
Both twins tended to be more receptive when she talked to them.
Remembering his second purpose for coming here, Lord Gu said, “You may not have to go back with me for now, but you must divorce that crippled boy!”
Gu Jiao paused in her chopping.
Lord Gu said, “While you two haven’t consummated your marriage, you’re still an unmarried girl. Once we return to the Capital City, we can simply say you were never married, and I’ll arrange another good marriage for you!”
Thud!
Gu Jiao slammed the axe down onto the wood.
If he was just ranting about her and Gu Yan returning to the capital, she could put up with that. But asking her to divorce Xiao Liulang was too ridiculous.
What kind of father would inquire about whether his daughter has consummated her marriage?
Gu Jiao really misunderstood Lord Gu. He only knew about the chastity mark on her face.
But none of that mattered now.
Gu Jiao was fuming.
While Lord Gu was chattering non-stop, even listing a long lineup of high-ranking young masters from the Capital City, he saw Gu Jiao stand up with a cold expression.
Lord Gu felt a chill run down his spine under Gu Jiao’s death glare.
This girl, how could she have such a terrifying look?
“You, on what grounds do you interfere in my affairs?”
“Because I’m your father!”
