Chapter 397 Humiliation, Slap
Chapter 397 Humiliation, Slap
“You should send someone to follow Yifei. He is inexperienced and acts on impulse, believing that there is always a right and wrong in this world. Also, send someone to keep an eye on Zheng Yunlong to prevent him from causing any accidents.”
"Okay, President!"
However, they were still unable to guard against it. Two days later, as Zheng Yuanxi was detained, news broke on various platforms that the only son of the second-in-command of a certain province had an affair with a married woman. He was so angry for the woman that the provincial governor did not hesitate to use his private power to intervene for his son's sake.
Although these reports do not name names, people in the industry can easily guess who they are.
Therefore, He hope was even more furious, and she went directly to Gu Zhiyao!
Gu Zhiyao only then learned of this incident, and was shocked and at a loss.
"Snapped!"
He Xi slapped Gu Zhiyao hard across the face and angrily cursed, "Gu Zhiyao, I told you before to stay away from him, why did you have to provoke him? Don't you know what kind of person you are? You were A Yi's bed partner and even had two children with him. Don't you feel ashamed to be so shameless as to hook up with Yi Fei like this?"
Gu Zhiyao had experienced He hope's power before, but considering that He hope was Yi Fei's mother, and that He hope had never hit her or said such things when she was angry with her last time, she had never paid much attention to He hope. But now, Gu Zhiyao was really angry!
She felt that He hope looked down on her from the bottom of his heart and gave her a bad reputation without any basis!
The truth is completely different. She never provoked Yifei, nor did she intend to harm him. That's why she repeatedly and clearly rejected Yifei. In the end, He hope turned the truth upside down!
He Xi's anger showed no signs of abating, and she continued to hurl insults at Gu Zhiyao, her words growing increasingly offensive. Gu Zhiyao finally couldn't hold back any longer and said coldly, "Mrs. Tan, I know you love and care about Yifei very much, but what you've done is not what a mother who loves her son should do. If you really cared about Yifei, you wouldn't have said these things. By doing this, you're not only insulting me, but also Yifei, do you understand?"
"Shut up! Who do you think you are, daring to say such things to me? Do you think I'm some kind of man you can use to spread your lies? You didn't stop harming A-Yi, and now you're trying to harm Yi-Fei too. Gu Zhi-Yao, are you a vixen? Why are you harming men like this? Let me tell you, I won't let you succeed!"
A scourge?
Vixen?
Gu Zhiyao snorted coldly.
Perhaps she shouldn't reason with He hope, because He hope is not worthy at all, even though she is Yi Fei's mother!
"Mrs. Tan, no matter what you think of me or how you insult me, I can tell you that I am not what you think, and Yifei is not what you think. As his mother, you don't understand him at all. You don't know what he needs, or what kind of life would bring him the happiest and most joyful. You don't care whether he is happy or not; you only care about what you want. You impose your own vision of life on him, and now you are inexplicably interfering in his relationships, maliciously speculating about him and the person he likes! No wonder he told me that maybe you are not his mother at all, and that you don't deserve to have such an excellent and wonderful son as Yifei!"
"Slap!" Suddenly, another loud slap rang out, accompanied by He hope's angry curses, "Gu Zhiyao, you bitch, shut up!"
Just as she raised her hand to slap Gu Zhiyao for the third time, a tall figure rushed over and stopped her in time.
"Sis, what are you doing? Stop it!"
He hope couldn't help but pause, and said angrily, "Ayi, let go of me right now, I'm going to hit her, I'm going to tear her mouth apart."
He Yi did not loosen his grip, his brows furrowing slightly.
"Ah Yi!" He hope continued to roar, "It's one thing for Yi Fei to be immature and bewitched by her, but why would someone as steady and wise as you be bewitched by her? I've told you before, if you could only choose between her and Zheng Yuanxi, I would rather you choose Zheng Yuanxi. At least Zheng Yuanxi isn't as despicable and disgusting as her, only knowing how to seduce men with her body!"
“Sister!” He Yi’s brows furrowed even more. “No matter what happened, acting impulsively is not the best solution, and you’ve never been that kind of person. Come back with me. What we need to do now is find a way to calm this down.”
"How can I stay calm? Do you know how those people mocked and ridiculed me? They said I'd been waiting day and night for Yifei to finally find a wife, and that there was no need to pressure him to have children because he already had two grandchildren as a bonus. Some even deliberately asked me what the two children should call me in the future—Grandma or Great-Aunt? They said Yifei idolizes his uncle to such an extent that he's taken all the women his uncle has slept with. The two of them, uncle and nephew, really have similar interests!"
Where there are people, there are conflicts and disputes, especially in these upper circles. Everyone is always looking at each other, being polite and warm on the surface, but secretly competing and envying each other.
My older sister has always been aloof and strong-willed, completely different from those other women. They were all jealous of her because she came from a good family, was capable, and married a high-ranking official. Although they weren't particularly loving, her husband had almost no scandals over the years. They had finally caught Yifei being lazy and mocked him for being a good-for-nothing who had repeated the college entrance exam for three years. But as Yifei transformed himself and earned degree after degree from a prestigious university abroad, those women became completely unbalanced.
Seeing this kind of news now, why not slam it down!
"Sister, let me take you home." After a while, He Yiping said calmly.
"I'm not going back!"
"The people who make you unhappy, and the people who want to see you make a fool of yourself, are those groups. You should deal with them, not take it out on Gu Zhiyao. You know perfectly well what's going on between her and Yifei. Sister, how is your treatment of Gu Zhiyao any different from that of those women?" He Yi couldn't help but raise his voice slightly as he spoke.
He hope froze, staring at him in disbelief.
"Come on, I'll take you home." He Yi hugged her, glanced at Gu Zhiyao, and then left.
Gu Zhiyao stood there for a while before gradually recovering. Feeling the burning pain on her face, tears welled up in her eyes, but she quickly held them back and returned to her residence.
She didn't treat her wound; she just sat there blankly.
Until the phone rings.
"Where are you?" It was He Yi's voice.
Without even thinking, Gu Zhiyao cut off the connection.
He Yi kept calling, and Gu Zhiyao blacklisted the number.
Half an hour later, the doorbell rang.
Gu Zhiyao instinctively felt it was He Yi, so she ignored it. But the doorbell rang again, so she went over to check the video outside. The person standing outside was Yi Fei!
