Why…
Gu Yu looked at the face that was very similar to Xu Weilai’s. His deep and dark eyes were in a trance for a moment. But, within a few seconds, all the emotions were gone. Gu Yu moved his thin lips. His voice was exceptionally indifferent. “You shouldn’t be the one asking this question.”
“Hmph.”
Xu Zhanwang sneered and suddenly moved his hand. He landed a heavy blow on the corner of Gu Yu’s lips. Streaks of blood appeared instantly. He even took the chance to grab Gu Yu’s shirt and pull him to the side. Then, he made use of the residual force to get up and pressed a knee down on Gu Yu’s body.
“Gu Yu, in the past, I respected you very much. You were the brother-in-law I recognized in my heart. But now, you don’t have the right anymore!”
Xu Zhanwang looked at Gu Yu’s cold face and wished that he could punch him twice again. His eyes were filled with anger as he glared at Gu Yu. He gritted his teeth as he continued, “No matter what mistakes my sister made in the past, since you had already decided to marry her, you should treat her well. But, what did you do? From the moment you married her, you make her suffer. You make her unhappy, you refused to admit her status, and you even have rumors with other dubious women outside. You embarrassed her so much that she can’t even hold her head high in front of anyone!”
Gu Yu laid on the ground quietly and didn’t resist. He didn’t refute either.
The more Xu Zhanwang vented his anger, the more furious he got. “I’m not that little brat three years ago who couldn’t even get close to you anymore. I’ve grown up. I can protect my sister. If you don’t treat her well, I’ll take her away. I will not let you find her. Don’t even think about bullying her again!”

When Mrs. Xu and Xu Weilai came out of the kitchen carrying the plates of fruit, they only saw Mr. Xu sitting on the sofa in the living room. Mrs. Xu was puzzled. “Where’s Yu and Zhanwang?”
Mr. Xu, who was watching the live news broadcast, raised his head and glanced at her. He replied, “The young people couldn’t sit still so they went out to exercise.”
“This…” Mrs. Xu frowned. “Zhanwang is very hostile towards Yu. If they are left alone together, Zhanwang might say something atrocious and provoke Yu. How could you let them stay together without worrying?”
After she finished muttering, Mrs. Xu turned to speak to Xu Weilai, “Hurry up and find them. I’m not scolding you but as an older sister, you should persuade your younger brother more. He will have to rely on Yu in the future. If Yu has any grudges against him, it will be bad for him.”
As she spoke, she couldn’t help but complain, “You can’t control the women your husband has outside and your womb isn’t working hard either. In that case, you should think about your man and your younger brother more! My teachings have all gone to waste!”
Although she lowered her voice, Xu Weilai still heard her mother clearly.
She tightened her grip around the plate of fruit and lowered her eyelids. Half a second later, she gave a calm smile and said indifferently, “I’ll go and look for them.”
She placed the plate down and turned to walk out.
Behind her, Mr. Xu scolded Mrs. Xu, “Are you making your old mistake again? Can you talk lesser? Our child rarely comes home.”
Mrs. Xu didn’t give in. “Yes, yes, yes. I’m the bad person. If it isn’t for our Xu family and our son, do I have to worry so much? Why are you blaming me? Why don’t you blame yourself for being useless? You can’t even support the family!”
Xu Weilai took a turn. She only raised her head when she couldn’t hear her parents’ voices anymore. She sniffed her nose forcefully before trying her best to force a smile on her face. Then, she picked up the pace and walked towards the sports arena.
When she pushed open the door and saw the scene in front of her, she was shocked——
