Chen Peng immediately knelt and kowtowed. âIt was my mistake before, and I didnât stop Mrs. Zhao from doing what she did. Please forgive me. From now on, I will definitely turn over a new leaf and treat the two children well!â
The patriarch immediately kicked him in the chest and spat, âYou didnât stop her, but you must have been involved, no? Donât think I donât know that you instigated the refugees to cause trouble in Dongyang.
âLord Sun still has the confessions of those people from back then. Should I go and look through them?â
After Chen Peng fell to the ground, a trace of ruthlessness flashed across his eyes. He did not expect them to know so much. So, heâ¦
This time, the patriarch did not give him a chance to speak. âLet me guess why did you lower yourself to visit us this time?
âBecause the Zhao Family canât help you anymore, right?
âBecause someone is investigating you, right?
âYou want the three of them back now because you want Chengrui to help you get through this calamity on their account, right?
âIâve seen many shameless people in my life, but itâs rare to see someone as shameless and self-righteous as you.
âAre you still worthy of being a man?
âBack then, the Gu Family sponsored you to take the imperial examination and later helped you in your career. Didnât they do their best?
âOnce something happened to the Gu Family, your attitude changed faster than flipping a page in a book.
âYes, weâve become sinners. Youâre afraid of being implicated, and we understand that. So, we wonât make things difficult for you.
âEven when you divorced Ziyi, we didnât say anything.
âHowever, the only thing you should have never done was allow Mrs. Zhao and your shameless mother to humiliate and endanger them.
âDo you even think with your brain?
âNow that you need them and want them to help you, do you only want to reconcile? Iâm telling you, no way.â
âYou should leave. Otherwise, donât blame us for taking action.â Gu Chengen opened the door at this moment.
âGet lost.â Mrs. Wang got up and wanted to drag him out.
When the patriarch saw this, he immediately stopped her because he knew that Chen Peng was a person who cared greatly about his reputation. Moreover, he was cold-blooded, heartless, and ruthless.
If they really dragged him out and made him lose his dignity, Chen Peng would bite them before he died. It wasnât worth it.
He ordered Chen Peng, âLeave. Weâre not stupid. We wonât let you use us again and again.
âDonât come back again. The Gu Family will no longer acknowledge you as a relative.â
Seeing that there was no room for redemption, Chen Peng did not stand on ceremony. He stood up and patted the dust off his clothes before walking out.
At the same time, he was thinking about how to repay their humiliation today.
âLook at his heartless behavior! Now that thereâs no hope, he just leaves without saying a word!
âI canât believe I was that blind back then to actually let Ziyi marry him! Ziyi is now scarred for the rest of her life!â Mrs. Wang roared and started crying.
âAlright, itâs already in the past. Ziyi has already walked out of her trauma, and thereâs no need to think about those unhappy things anymore.
âGo over later and ask Ziyi to stay at home for a while. Weâll talk more after he leaves.â The patriarch suggested.
âYes, yes, that bastard is cunning. We have to be on guard.â After Mrs. Wang wiped her tears, she ran out.
However, she did not go directly to Gu Ziyiâs house. Instead, she went to the foot of the mountain to buy some incense and candles. She then entered the Mother God Temple and lit three incense sticks to pray for Gu Ziyi and her two childrenâs safety.
Before she left, she even donated a tael of silver.
âSigh, the Gu Family really doesnât have a good eye for choosing a son-in-law.
âEvery one of them is more ruthless than the other. Third Aunt even lost her life.â Gu Chengen sighed..
