After Guan Meiyi was beaten, she ran out of the VIP room. But He Zhenxuan was not letting it go and chased her out. Therefore, the two of them got into an altercation outside of Gu Zhiqian’s room.
If it wasn’t the scream of He Zhenxuan that disturbed Gu Zhiqian, which led to Gu Zhiqian being unhappy and teaching him a lesson, who knew how long Guan Meiyi would have been beaten in public.
Hearing what Guan Meiyi had said about He Zhenxuan beating her because of entertaining his guests, Guan Jianlin’s face changed. But the first thing that came out of his mouth was still a complaint about her. “Aren’t women supposed to entertain guests of their men? He asked you to have a few drinks, couldn’t you just drink? The most important thing for a man in public is his reputation. You caused Zhenxuan to lose face, of course he would hit you.”
Guan Meiyi was shocked and in disbelief. “Are you still my father? How can you say such a thing?”
Guan Jianlin’s face got serious, “Just because I am your father, I have to give you this lecture. If you don’t change your sh*tty temperament, you will get a lot more beatings in the future!”
“In the future?” Guan Meiyi’s voice trembled. “I want to divorce him!”
“No!” Unsurprisingly, Guan Jianlin shouted at Guan Meiyi. “I’m telling you, you can forget about this idea. You go back to the He Family and continue your life with He Zhengxuan. Don’t even think about such a thing as divorce. I will never allow it!”
Then Guan Jianlin stood up and went to pull on Guan Meiyi. “Get up, I am sending you back to the He Family. Apologize nicely and ask them to forgive you.”
“Forgive me! I am the one who got beaten!” Guan Meiyi broke free of the hand of Jianlin. “I am not going back!”
She really didn’t want to face those devils of the He Family. She would rather die than go back.
Guan Jianlin saw the despair in Guan Meiyi’s eyes and said in a cold voice, “I’m telling you, Guan Meiyi, forget about those useless thoughts that you have. If you want to die, go die in the He Family and be a ghost in the He Family in the future!”
Guan Jianlin grabbed Guan Meiyi and walked towards the door.
Right then the door of the first-floor study door opened and a scantily-dressed woman emerged from the study and called Guan Jianlin in a clingy voice, “Jianlin, are you going out? What do I do?”
Seeing the woman in the study, Guan Meiyi looked back at Guan Jianlin with eyes full of confusion and accusation.
He didn’t want Guan Meiyi to see this woman, but now that she’d seen her, Guan Jianlin didn’t feel guilty anymore. “Go to bed. I’ll be back soon.”
The woman pouted, “No, I am waiting for you in the room! I can’t sleep without you!”
Guan Jianlin nodded. “Okay, wait for me.”
Guan Meiyi watched all this with a dead expression. She was not mad that Guan Jianlin found a lover. This was nothing out of the ordinary.
What she did care about was Guan Jianlin’s attitude. At the same time, his father was so gentle to that woman but so indifferent when kicking her out and so adamant in pushing her back into the fire.
Guan Meiyi pushed Guan Jianlin away. “I can walk myself!”
That night, Guan Jianlin took Guan Meiyi back to the He residence. The first thing they did when they entered the door was apologize to the family for what had happened that evening.
The He Family was about to punish Guan Meiyi that night, but they didn’t expect to see Guan Jianlin with her. Because of Guan Jianlin’s presence and the fact that he also apologized, the He Family did not say anything. But the whole time they never once gave Guan Meiyi a nice look.
