Chapter 353 - 353: Asking for a Kiss



“You’re too cruel! We’ve been married for decades, and this is how you treat me!” Mrs. Gu howled in grief, grabbing Gu Guoliang by the front of his shirt.

“If you don’t know how to teach our daughter to be a sensible woman, then don’t bother teaching her at all. Look at how much damage she’s caused under your care.” Gu Guoliang seethed.

“Enough!” Gu Zhichuan stubbed out his cigarette in frustration. “Now is not the time to be fighting among ourselves.”

Gu Guoliang’s chest heaved up and down. He steadied his breathing, his words unable to hide his anger, “Shuyue, don’t even think about remaining in C City. Go abroad; I don’t care where you decide to stay. But know this: I’m not going to support you. You’ll have to get a job and earn a wage like everyone else. You’re on your own.”

“Dad! Are you trying to kill me?” Gu Shuyue shrieked.

“Death? If death were so easy, you’d take that nosedive right night!” Gu Guoliang pointed at the windowsill, his glare intensifying. “You and your mother have ruined my life’s work!”

“What does that have to do with me? Why is it that only our family and company are in trouble? If you don’t have the ability, just say so; don’t you dare blame it all on me!” Gu Shuyue shouted. “What? Did you offend someone? Is that it? Are we in this mess because of something you did? Hah! Now you’re looking to drag me into the mess you started?”

Everything was going well on her end. How was it that someone suddenly decided to take an interest in her and her affairs? Wasn’t it too much of a coincidence? She would have had to be a fool not to connect the dots.

Gu Zhichuan lit another cigarette. “You were the one who offended someone before. You only got out unscathed by using Lin Gantang as a shield.”

Gu Shuyue froze, her arrogance squashed.

Gu Zhichuan’s eyebrows were tightly knitted together, even as he inhaled a long drag, exhaling a large cloud of smoke.

Gu Guoliang exchanged glances with him.

“Heh, then the truth is even clearer. I don’t know if you’ve heard about Brother’s feelings for Lin Gantang, Dad. He’s been trying to get together with her for the longest time. If anything, it’s probably Wen Yanqing who is looking for trouble with him!” Gu Shuyue did not give Gu Zhichun any face. “If he is the culprit, I’d just get someone to calm him down. What about you, huh? You’re the culprit!”

When she learned this juicy gossip, Mrs. Gu added her pennies’ worth and began chiding Gu Zhichuan. “You see, you see! What’s so good about Lin Gantang? Now she’s even targeting your sister!”

Even now, Mrs. Gu continues to protect GU Shuyue resolutely. Gu Zhichuaan arrived at a decision. “I’ll talk to Wen Yanqing. As for you, Gu Shuyue, I’ll pick a flight for you tomorrow.”

Gu Shuyue knew that Gu Zhichuan was serious, and her face turned pale.

“My poor daughter… How can your father and brother be so cruel? If you have no living expenses, you’ll starve to death!” Mrs. Gu cried.

“If you can’t bear the thought, you’re welcome to accompany her,” Gu Guoliang snarked.

Mrs. Gu’s mouth snapped shut in resentment.

Gu Shuyue was not academically inclined; she was never one for school. After she graduated, she refused to work, coasting on the family’s wealth to live a carefree life.

How could she survive in a foreign country without money? Gu Shuyue felt her legs tingle, growing weak from numbness. “Dad, don’t send me away! I’ll be good. I’ll stay home and won’t cause you any more trouble.”

Gu Guoliang hardened his heart.

Gu Zhichuan discovered where Wen Yanqing was staying and drove towards the Yuanshui River.

He stopped downstairs and waited for Wen Yanqing to return.

He waited till the sky turned dark and night descended. By then, he had finished a pack of cigarettes, idling away the hours, when he saw Wen Yanqing.

The man was wearing a sweater and a pair of form-fitting slacks. He was hugging Lin Gantang, who wore a plain dress.

When Wen Yanqing saw him, he stopped and whispered a few words into Lin Gantang’s ear. He kissed her without hesitation. Almost expectantly, he waited for her to return the kiss.

Lin Gantang had also noticed Gu Zhichuan, but she only spared him a glance. She followed his lead, their lips kissing, before heading upstairs.

Gu Zhichuan’s expression darkened. He took a deep puff of his cigarette and threw it on the ground, crushing it underfoot..
