Chapter 75 – Chu Qiao fought for herself (2)
Thinking of the miserable life in her previous life, Chu Qiao’s anger rushed upward. She picked up a teacup from the chest of drawers and threw it to the ground.
By chance, that location she threw was in front of Gu Jianshe. The porcelain pieces splashed all over the floor, and several pieces were splashed on Gu Jianshe’s trousers. The sharp porcelain pieces cut through the thin cloth and scratched his skin. Gu Jianshe quickly retracted his feet, he was angry and frightened.
Chu Qiao was an unreasonable woman. She still despised him. Even if he and Xu Bilian had some relationship, so what about it?
He was a man who did great things. As long as he guaranteed the position of the legal wife, it was normal for him to have some private life outside. In ancient times, an official could have three wives and four concubines. The current era is monogamous, one husband and one wife. But there was no restriction on men to not be able to have some fun in private. A smart and magnanimous woman would turn a blind eye to that, it would not be like Chu Qiao. She still hadn’t gotten married to him, but she already made a big fuss. She really didn’t have a little bit of manners and self-restraint.
It was very vulgar to actually smash things. The only good thing about her was her appearance which was really nice to look at.
Although Gu Jianshe was angry, he still couldn’t bear to part with Chu Qiao’s beauty. As long as he married her, he had plenty of ways to subdue this woman and make her obedient.
“Chu Qiao, Chu Peng, you really misunderstood me. I really have nothing to do with Xu Bilian. She is my little aunt now. How can I do such a thing?” Gu Jianshe tried to defend himself.
“That’s right, anyone with a bit of humanity will never mess with his aunt, but there are many people in this world who are not even as good as the beasts.”
Chu Qiao stared at him with disgust, just like looking at a garbage, and then she said coldly to He Jihong: “Don’t try to think of those bad ideas that will ruin my reputation. If you really ruin my reputation, I won’t do as you wished. At worst, we can die together. And before you die, don’t ever think to have a good life. Everyone in Shanghai will know that you, He Jihong, forced the stepdaughter to the death. Then you will spend the rest of your life being pointed at and blamed by others!”
“You… you… Chu Yuanzhi, look, your daughter is very rude now that she even dared to talk back to me. She even called me by my name and surname. Chu Yuanzhi, you are so dead!”
He Jihong was so angry that her face turned blue. She could not help trembling when she pointed at Chu Qiao. She (He Jihong) didn’t scold her (Chu Qiao) for a long time, and she poured all her anger on Chu Yuanzhi.
Chu Yuanzhi had a headache that was going to explode. His daughter scolded him, his wife scolded him, and his son also glared at him. He felt like he was no longer a human being here.
“Jihong, don’t be angry. Anger will hurt your body. Calm down. Since Chu Qiao doesn’t want to marry, then don’t force her. She is now 21, not 31. Why are you in a hurry?”
The way Chu Yuanzhi spoke showed that he complained a little more, he just didn’t understand why his wife was so anxious to let Chu Qiao get married. As it just made the family become a mess. Not only that, she even wanted Chu Qiao to marry such a thing as Gu Jianshe, who was full of tricks.
If Gu Jianshe and Xu Bilian really had an affair, then if Qiao Qiao really got married to him, could she still be able to have a good life?
He Jihong heard her husband’s complaints. Her heart ached, her throat felt a little fishy, and she almost vomited blood because of the anger. “Okay then, I have done my best to take care of your daughter’s marriage, but as a result, you’re not thankful for my effort. In the future, I won’t care anymore. You can do whatever you want!”
“You have to do what you say. Please don’t arrange for a widower who has many wives died for them, or maybe an old man who has several children. By all means, please don’t worry about me. Even if I die at the door of the house, don’t ever reach out. Please, really please!”
Chu Qiao answered immediately, and it made He Jihong become so angry that she wanted to vomit blood again. Her eyes turned white. This time, she really fainted and fell into Chu Peng’s arms. Chu Yuanzhi hurriedly checked her pulse and it was because of the extreme anger that made her pass out. Fortunately it was not a big deal.
