âItâs just a couple of words on the street, no big deal,â Guan Danian said, releasing his grip as he entered the door, âDonât be too strict, or the son will resent itâŠâ
Guan Tongshi raised her eyebrows, but said nothing more.
She didnât enter the house either, just leaned against the yard door, listening to the noises outside.
Guan Danian didnât say anything else, which was as good as an agreement.
âYang Dani.â After her parents had left, Guan Qingshu took a few steps towards Yang Ruxin and glanced at Xiaofeng.
He knew there was no way to get him to leave, but it didnât matter since he was young, âHow could you have changed like this?â
Yang Ruxin frowned.
What way was that?
âYou used to be gentle and kindâŠâ
Yang Ruxin chuckled twice.
âGentle?
Kind?
Guan Qingshu, you mean to say I was foolish, right?â
Guan Qingshu frowned.
âDani, can we not be like this?
Letâs talk nicely.
Iâm saying this for your own goodâŠâ
Yang Ruxin nodded.
âThen speak.â
âI know youâre mad at me, but even if youâre mad, you canât get so close to someone whoâs both blind and lame, after allâŠâ
âGet lost!â Yang Ruxin didnât wait for Guan Qingshu to finish before she kicked him in the shin, âGuan Qingshu, youâre just asking for a beating.â
âYouâŠâ Guan Qingshu grimaced in pain.
âI warned you last time, and now Iâll say it one last time.
The Yang Dani who only had eyes for you, who always thought of you, is dead.
Dead, get it?
Gone for good.â Yang Ruxin glared icily at Guan Qingshu.
âThe one standing before you now is Yang Ruxin, and Yang Ruxin doesnât like Guan Qingshu, she even hates Guan Qingshu.
Iâm making myself clear, right?â
Guan Qingshu was incredulous.
âAlso, donât let me hear you calling Gu Qingheng a âcrippleâ or âblindâ again.
He may be crippled and blind, but his heart isnât.
Heâs ten times, a hundred times stronger than a blind man like you.â Yang Ruxin sneered.
âAnd for a âscholarâ like you to demean others like that, would your master approve?â
âYou like him now?â Guan Qingshu felt a void suddenly emerge in some corner of his heart.
He didnât understand whyâan individual he had despised so much before now seemed impossible to let go.
âYes, Yang Ruxin likes Gu Qingheng.â Yang Ruxin enunciated each word.
âFrom now on, Yang Ruxin will treat Gu Qingheng well, will always care for and look after him, and as long as he doesnât tire of it, she will continue to do soâŠâ Having said that, she straightened up, turned around, and took Xiaofeng by the hand and left.
âWhy?â Guan Qingshu asked, frowning.
Unfortunately, Yang Ruxin didnât bother turning back, but she did raise her hand and flash her middle finger.
Guan Qingshu frowned and extended his middle finger too, not understanding its significance, and could only watch helplessly as Yang Ruxin walked away, eventually getting up, crestfallen.
However, after just a couple of steps, a rock came flying from somewhere, hitting him right behind the knee, and as a result, the illustrious scholar Guan faced a humiliating face-plant.
In the shadows, Gu Yao smirked with satisfaction.
To think heâd dare covet his sister-in-law.
Tripping him was getting off light.
Work him up and he might not even make it to the examination hall, hmph!
Why was Gu Yao here, you ask?
Because Gu Qingheng had expressed concernsâseveral individuals from the Yang Familyâs main house had malicious intents, and fearing for the siblings, he had Gu Yao follow them into the village.
And sure enough, theyâd encountered someone asking for trouble.
