Chapter 114: The Fox Spirit
An Junxi initially thought that her father and mother would soon reconcile; after all, they had been together for decades, so how could there be an overnight grudge?
It turned out she was wrong.
The house remained tense. Gu Kuangyong and Liang Huiyun never appeared at the same dining table; if one was in the living room, the other would be in the garden. They wouldn’t even glance at each other when meeting on the stairs.
Seventh Uncle was so angry that he called the family doctor for two consecutive days. He summoned the two to the study for a lecture: "You’re both in your fifties. What issue can’t be resolved with a proper conversation? Must you make a spectacle for everyone, becoming the laughingstock of the younger generation?"
Liang Huiyun did not back down. She said, "Seventh Uncle, you know how he has treated me all these years. I’ve put up with him, but bringing that vixen Zhang Miaoyan back, I can’t tolerate it..."
Gu Kuangyong’s forehead veins popped: "Who are you calling a vixen? I’ve told you she’s a student I’m sponsoring. Can you stop being unreasonable?"
"Unreasonable? I know she’s the daughter of your old flame. Didn’t get the woman, now going after her daughter..."
Gu Kuangyong pointed at her nose and scolded: "Liang Huiyun, how filthy can your thoughts be? Insult them again, and I’ll divorce you!"
Liang Huiyun smashed a tea set and, with trembling lips, said, "Dream on! Gu Kuangyong, you’ll never get rid of me in this life! That woman was just a servant, and I can’t scold her? You dare compare her to me? Zhang Miaoyan is the daughter of a vixen, so she is a vixen too! Bringing her in and out all day, what are you up to?"
Gu Kuangyong couldn’t say another word. He took two heart pills, felt a little better, and slammed the door on his way out, ignoring the presence of the Seventh Uncle.
