Zhao Xuran and the others were thinking that since Zhuge Mingshan didn’t succeed last ti, she should co up with a follow-up plan. But to their surprise, they waited and waited with no results, which was really puzzling to them.
Another surprise to them was that now everyone in the family entered and exited through the back door, even conducting business from the back door.
"Hmph." Just as Gong Ruini and the others were discussing what was going on, they heard an unhappy voice from Zhuge Mingshan.
Actually, Zhuge Mingshan wasn’t going to be nice to them, and Gong Ruini and the others weren’t really surprised by this. Given her temper, it would be more problematic if she were nice to them.
Gong Ruini and the others were actually startled by Zhuge Mingshan when she walked by; she had really lost a lot of weight.
Gong Ruini almost said, "Girl, it’s not trendy to be skinny anymore. You look all sorts of out of place like this." But she didn’t dare to say it, fearing she’d hit a sore spot and get another disrespectful retort.
"Oh my, you can’t just pop out like this and scare people." Zhao Guangran was really startled by Zhuge Mingshan, but to him, how could he miss such a great opportunity to be sarcastic?
Scary? Does she look terrifying now? Although Zhuge Mingshan always said she cared about inner beauty and whether there was sothing in her mind, she was very confident about her appearance.
In Zhuge Mingshan’s mind, marrying into a wealthy family through Zhuge Zhi ant having not only a good family background but also good grades and sothing in the brain. However, without a proud appearance, getting into a wealthy family would be very difficult too.
Ordinary people find the na Zhuge quite impressive, but beyond that, it doesn’t trick anyone. Even Zhuge Zhi’s direct granddaughter would have a hard ti entering a wealthy family, let alone her, the grandniece.
"You..." Zhuge Mingshan knew she hadn’t been doing well these past few days, but was it so bad that it was terrifying?
"What about , have you not looked in the mirror?" Zhao Guangran conveyed his arrogance, showing that bullying her was what he intended to do, challenging her to do anything about it.
Zhao Xuran disliked Zhuge Mingshan, but why argue over these things with her? "Alright, let’s go, don’t waste ti."
For him, how Zhuge Mingshan looked had nothing to do with him at all, but upon seeing her current state, Zhao Xuran was pretty satisfied.
Despite Zhao Guangran bragging about knowing many people in Beijing, the people he claid to know were really irrelevant to Zhao Xuran, as he’d also t a group of like-minded people at school and wasn’t entirely ignorant about the situation near the Zhuge family.
While Gong Ruini and the others were busy making money and constantly upgrading Zhuge Mingshan, he noticed that Zhuge Mingshan hadn’t appeared for a long ti. More importantly, he later found out that Ge Yunkui had visited where Zhuge Mingshan and the others lived.
And on that day, Zhuge Zhi was in a bad mood, so Zhao Xuran wouldn’t think Ge Yunkui had gone there to bring good news; it should have been for the strict discipline of Zhuge Mingshan by the Zhuge family.
Although he didn’t know how big families punished younger generations, Zhao Xuran was genuinely delighted to see Zhuge Mingshan looking so spiritless.
So matters don’t get understood until so form of punishnt is imposed to understand the seriousness.
Zhao Xuran knew it was impossible to completely suppress Zhuge Mingshan, and she might retaliate even more fiercely in the future. But Zhao Xuran wasn’t worried, as he feared she’d be quiet rather than create drama.
Gong Ruini was unaware of the situation, but when Cao Na passed by and saw Zhuge Mingshan daring to cast fierce glances at Gong Ruini, she was displeased. Ever since her sister accepted treatnt from Doctor Zhan Jing and her health improved, she genuinely liked Gong Ruini more.
Initially, her closeness to Gong Ruini was to find a chance to stir up trouble between Zhuge Mingshan and Gong Ruini, but now she wouldn’t do that and would stand up when Zhuge Mingshan caused issues instead.
"Haven’t you had enough punishnt, or do you want it to continue?" Cao Na was also startled by Zhuge Mingshan’s current state. She knew Miss Zhuge wasn’t having a good ti, but she didn’t expect her to beco like this.
However, no matter how sympathetic Cao Na was, she had no sympathy for Zhuge Mingshan. "People like you, I think, haven’t been punished enough."
"How can you still think your current status isn’t low enough?" Cao Na hadn’t expected that just because Grandpa Zhuge disliked her and detested her in various ways, the Zhuge family would impose such heavy punishnt on her.
No matter how much Zhuge Mingshan wanted to react, upon hearing Cao Na’s words, even if she was unwilling, she had to retreat quickly. Otherwise, Cao Na would definitely inform the elders about today’s events via her connections.
If the elders found out, who knows what kind of consequences would await, so she couldn’t give Cao Na that chance.
No way! Did she just leave like that? Gong Ruini was genuinely stunned watching Zhuge Mingshan, who seed to flee in disarray.
Previously, even when Cao Na instigated things, Zhuge Mingshan would retaliate sowhat. How co there was no counterattack today? What is going on?
"She, lately her days aren’t good, she’s even been copying the Zhuge family rules."
Cao Na curled her lips, "With her usual conduct, I can’t believe she follows those so-called family rules at all."
"Ah, family rules." Gong Ruini knew that big wealthy households must have so rules, but she didn’t expect an actual set of family rules like this.
"Yes, I heard it’s a thick stack, and copying it once is about ten thousand characters." Cao Na had never seen the thing; it was purely a legendary existence.
"Anyway, each ti you make a mistake, you write it ten tis as a base." Cao Na felt terrified just thinking about it. Luckily her family didn’t have such a thing; if they did, she’d rather choose a beating from her family.
Oh my, Zhao Guangran’s little heart was beating rapidly, ten tis at a base ans a hundred thousand characters! Oh my, Zhao Guangran felt that his brother was actually pretty good to him; look at the harsh punishnts the Zhuge family imposed.
"Looks like I might set such a punishnt for you next ti, Guang Ran." Just when Zhao Guangran felt variously relieved that his brother didn’t punish him like that, Zhao Xuran expressed that the Zhuge family’s punishnt was really to his liking.
Oh no, Zhao Guangran was dumbfounded. What did he do to get involved in this? Sigh, how could sothing clearly about Zhuge Mingshan drag him into it?
Hmph, he knew that girl Zhuge Mingshan was no good; see, even such a casual encounter got him involved. No, after this, he shouldn’t et her again, or he’d really be out of luck.
"Today’s final exam, you have to work hard." Zhao Xuran indicated that they would base the next punishnt on the results of the exam, and if the performance was good, there might not be a punishnt.
