BXBX NOVEL Chapter 51 - 70: It Can ‘t Be a Success, Can It?
“Tell me, how did Lian Zhenzhen and her daughter get away with being so brazen in the Gu Family for twenty years?” Yao Rong guessed.
“Pft.” Gu Chuyan nearly choked on her water upon hearing this.
“Cough cough, I have no idea.” Gu Chuyan wanted to refute, but it seemed to make sense.
“No ‘buts!’ I guess…” Yao Rong continued.
At that moment, the waitress brought over their dishes, and Gu Chuyan helped her to serve some.
“Alright, enough about them, let’s eat.” Gu Chuyan said. It’s not that she didn’t care, but she just wanted to avoid it. She didn’t dare think further, afraid that Yao Rong’s casual words might be true!
As the two were enjoying their meal, the door was flung open, and all the customers in the small restaurant were cleared out! The two looked surprised at the turn of events.
They saw Mr. Xi wheeling someone in. The man sitting in the wheelchair, wasn’t that Gu Yan?
“Well, speak of the devil and he appears!” Yao Rong looked at him without fear, mocking: “‘ Mr. Gu, what brings you to such a small restaurant?”
Mr. Xi wheeled Gu Yan in. Gu Yan’s face was grim, and he looked much haggard!
It might be due to illness, or perhaps due to the numerous things that have happened recently! They’ve strained him, and drained his wallet, leaving his whole being in a bad state.
“Gu Chuyan, what kind of friend is this you’re keeping?” As Gu Yan was wheeled to the table, he pointed at her, lecturing her.
Gu Chuyan continued eating her rice, not bothering to acknowledge him.
“Smack.” Gu Yan reached out, snatched away her bowl of rice, and tossed it aside!
She looked up at him, a mocking smile on her face: “Does Mr. Gu grace us with his presence just to teach me a lesson? I’m afraid I’m not worthy of it.” “Smack.” Hearing her words, Gu Yan raised his hand, intending to strike Gu Chuyan.
Little did he know that she too had raised her hand, gripping his tightly! His strength was great, causing some pain when he hit her hand! If it were her face, it would probably get swollen again.
“Mr. Gu, this random aggression of yours, it’s time to rein in! Not everyone can be hit by you.” Gu Chuyan chuckled coldly, pushing his hand away.
“Mr. Gu!” Mr. Xi seemed a bit worried about Gu Chuyan.
Having been with Gu Yan for many years, he thought Gu Chuyan was quite a decent kid. However, he didn’t know when, but she began to be distained by the Gu family! It even got to the point where she was kicked out of the house.
“Gu Chuyan, what’s with this attitude?” Gu Yan angrily slammed the table, glaring at Gu Chuyan.
At that, she gave a bitter smile under her breath! The man in front of her was her own biological father, but his motions to hit her were fluid and practiced.
“Did you have someone hit Miaoting just now?” Gu Yan demanded.
Gu Chuyan was taken aback, so Gu Yan’s visit today was to settle the score! It was truly ironic; her own biological father was here to give her trouble on behalf of another woman?
“If I did do it, are you going to arrest me? Or make me pay for her medical bills?” Gu Chuyan responded sarcastically.
Yao Rong stood up, nearly overturning the table.
“Pathetic! Chuyan had someone hit her? What the hell is Miaoting worth? Hitting her would only dirty our hands! Mr. Gu, you don’t even want your own daughter, but you’re helping an outsider’s child. If outsiders didn’t know any better, they might think that woman is your illegitimate child?”
Her words made Gu Yan’s face flush with unmatched embarrassment.
“Miss Yao! Mind your manners.” Mr. Xi spoke out, guardedly defending Gu Yan, given his role as a secretary.
Gu Yan looked at Yao Rong, speaking in a low tone: “If you don’t want anything to happen to the Yao Family, shut your mouth.”
“Are you threatening me? Just who do you think you are?” Yao Rong retorted, pointing at him..
