“We are your elders. How can we kneel to you!”
“Not in the future.” Yan Xi seemed to have this thought long ago.
She said lightly, “Today, I will cut myself off from the family.”
As if trying to make Yan Dong angrier, she continued, “This is my
birthday present for you. Are you surprised?”
Everyone was stunned by this news, and the noisy room fell silent.
Even Gu Shen was stunned.
However, Yan Xi was firm and did not seem to waver.
“I’m just informing you guys. I’m not asking for your opinion. I’ll give
up the Yan family’s right of inheritance, and I’ll slowly repay the child
support fees over the years. From now on, we’ll have nothing to do
with each other anymore.”
“So.” Yan Xi smiled. Her aura was similar to Gu Shen’s. “Kneel.”
Hearing that, people were all shocked.
Yan Dong’s expression was a little twisted, unable to come to terms
with the fact that she wanted to cut ties with him.
He would not let her go now because she was finally of some use to
him.
“Xi, what did I do to you that made you feel aggrieved? We’ve
raised you for more than ten years. How can you leave us just like
that? I’ll kneel before you. Please forgive me.”
With that, he bent his knees and pretended to kneel.Luo Yun held him up and took over the stage.
“Yan Xi, you heartless ingrate! The Yan family has raised you for so
many years. Now that you have a rich husband and you want to cut
ties with the family? Let me tell you, no way!”
By raising her, they meant a bed and three meals a day, nothing
else.
Over the past ten years, she had been hit and scolded countless
times. She would only get things that were either useless or had
been used. What was worse was that when the host was in her
second year of college, they arranged for her to drop out of school
and marry Gu Shen.
They had not fulfilled their parents’ responsibility in a single day, but
now, they were here talking to her about raising her.
Yan Xi only felt ridiculed. She placed her hand on the wheelchair.
“Hubby, I hate them. Help me.”
…
Yan Xi’s legs had been kicked several times by them. It was still
alright, if she sat still, but when she stood up, it hurt like a drill. She
forced herself to take a few steps before swaying and falling to the
ground.
She was still a little confused and looked sad.
Gu Shen said to her, “Don’t force yourself if you can’t walk.”
“It’s too painful. Those bodyguards were too ruthless,” Yan Xi
mumbled. However, those bodyguards did not end up happy either.Not only were they fired, but they also had to pay for Yan Xi’s
medical fees.
According to the rules of upper-class society, they would probably
have to bid farewell to the bodyguard profession forever.
“Can you still walk?” Gu Shen suddenly asked.
Yan Xi shook her head. “It hurts, Hubby.”
“You poor girl.” This was the first time Gu Shen had met such a
person. She was like a fragile porcelain doll that could not be
touched and could only be placed carefully.
He instructed Gu Er, “Call the chauffeur and ask him to drive the car
in.”
“Yes.”
Yan Xi sat for a while before she stood up, trembling. She wanted to
hold the wheelchair for Gu Shen, but she was afraid of causing
misunderstandings. She only dared to place a few fingers on it and
carefully observe his expression.
“If you want to hold it, then hold it.”
Yan Xi was very sweet. “Thank you, Hubby. Hubby is the best.”
Gu Shen, “Mm.”
Yan Xi stood beside Gu Shen and kept asking questions.
“How did you know that I was detained by the Yan family?”
“You called the driver.” Gu Shen paused and said, “You’re brave, but
you’re too stupid.”Even though she knew that she was no match for the family, she
still insisted on challenging them.
If he had not gone in time, many whip marks would have appeared
on Yan Xi’s body, and she would be suffering more pains than now.
Thinking of that scene, Gu Shen frowned unconsciously, irritated
and unhappy.
