Gu Hua Rong entered the bedroom and gave Wan Xiu Ru a big mouth. He then grabbed her hair and pulled her forward, causing her to immediately kneel on the floor, unable to move.
The cup on the tea table was knocked over and smashed into pieces.
"Ah …" What's wrong with me? "
Wan Xiu Ru didn't know what she did wrong again. She gritted her teeth in pain, but didn't dare to retaliate. Every time Gu Hua Rong was in a bad mood or was angered outside, he would think of her as a punching bag.
Wan Xiu Ru knelt on the ground and used her hands to protect her head, but there was still a slap on her face which stung.
"You still have the nerve to ask me?" Gu Hua Rong was furious. After a few slaps, he still couldn't calm himself down, so he grabbed Wan Xiu Ru's head and knocked it against the tea table, "You bastard. "People, are you purposely looking at me as a joke?!"
"I didn't."
She was only greeting Ning Anlan, so how could he be so irritable?
Thinking about it, he must have been infuriated by the old man in the hall earlier, and now that she had appeared, he must have bumped into her.
She had already suffered greatly after marrying a sickly woman. Now that she was being beaten and scolded every day, Wan Xiuru's silver teeth were about to shatter from gritted teeth.
"I was wrong, I was just being polite. There was no other meaning." As Wan Xiurou said those words of apology, she only wanted Gu Hua Rong to let go of her hand and not to tear off a strand of her hair.
"You are just making fun of me, thinking that I don't know!" Gu Hua Rong's face was sinister. His face had turned pale from years of sickness, and now he looked like a vampire.
Wan Xiuru didn't know why this frail and fragile woman couldn't muster up enough strength to hit her every time.
"I truly know that I was wrong. I shouldn't have said those words. They are all a bunch of despicable people. I shouldn't have given them face. "
Wan Xiu Ru felt wronged. She was just being polite in the beginning, after all, she wanted to put on an act. However, she didn't expect Gu Hua Long's mind to be so twisted. She couldn't even bear with this.
However, vanity would not allow her to divorce, at least in the eyes of outsiders, she was still happy.
"At least you're sensible!"
Gu Hua Rong pressed Wan Xiu Ru a few more times before releasing her hand. It was obvious that Wan Xiu Ru's scolding of the ancient city had given Gu Hua Rong a lot of pleasure.
"Second Master, Second Madam, come down to eat."
A servant's voice came from outside the door. Wan Xiuru held her head and was still recovering.
"Bring the food to the room." Gu Hua was panting heavily. He had used quite a bit of his physical strength to beat Wan Xiu Ru, so with his weak body, it was hard for him to endure. However, he was finally able to vent out the anger in his heart.
Thinking of the smiling faces of the ancient city and Ning Anlan in front of the old man, Gu Hua Rong had no intention of going downstairs. In any case, his movements were not very convenient, and he would often eat in his room, so the servant answered him and left.
Wan Xiu Ru got up from the ground to tidy up the room, but she didn't dare to get close to Gu Hua Long as she went around him.
This was the first time the ancient city had brought a girl home for dinner. If Gu Hua Rong didn't go downstairs, then this Second Aunt couldn't not show her face. At the very least, she had to put on an act on the surface and couldn't anger that old man downstairs again.
"I'll go and take a look first, otherwise Father will be angry." After tidying up the mess on the floor, Wan Xueruo spoke softly, afraid that he would go crazy again.
In this family, the only one that Gu Hua Rong still feared was the old tutor. Gu Hua Rong nodded, looking at her with a warning gaze.
When Wan Xueru arrived at the dining room, her face was covered by a thick layer of powder. It was impossible to tell that she had just experienced a domestic violence.
"Where's number two?" The old man sat at the center seat, and he was a bit displeased that he didn't see Gu Hua Rong.
"Dad, he's not feeling well, so he won't go downstairs. He'll eat in his room." Wan Xiuru smiled as she explained, shrinking her collar, not daring to let the old man see the pinky marks on her neck.
When he saw that her eyes were red and swollen, the old tutor squinted and let out a long sigh, not saying anything more.
"Ah Cheng, what plans do you have for your marriage with An Lan? "Next month's fifth day is a good day, why don't we set the engagement first."
Old Man Gu didn't want the ancient city to say anything. He had already planned everything out for them, and the date was already set!
He wanted to quickly carry his great-grandson. He liked this granddaughter-in-law, but he didn't care about her birth. No matter how good her family background was, it couldn't compare to the Gu family. The Ning Family of the Four Great Families was also decent in name.
The spoon in An Lan's hand trembled and almost spilled out. If they were to get engaged next month, wouldn't they be too anxious?
He hadn't told her that before he came to the city. Furthermore, with the failed marriage from her previous life, she had an instinctive resistance to marriage.
However, she still owed the ancient city money and signed a Godly Horse Ghost Agreement, so she didn't have the time to express any opinions.
"Grandfather, the marriage isn't urgent. The company has been rather busy recently, and An Lan just took over Ning Corporation. We still have to delay it." The calm tone of the ancient city had long seen through Ning Anlan's thoughts.
Old Master Gu was a little disappointed when he heard this, but it was a good thing for the couple to be so ambitious, so he had to encourage them.
In any case, he had taken a fancy to this granddaughter-in-law, so it wasn't at this moment.
"Since that's the case, we'll talk about it in a few days. Right, where's Xian'er? Why isn't she here today?"
Old Man Gu rolled his eyes. He finally realized that there was more than one person missing at the table today.
