Every ti I thought about her being able to do that thing with you and then putting on airs with , fury, fueled by alcohol, would take over, and I ended up raising my hand...
Can you even say that?!
Gao Shen inwardly groaned and then glared fiercely at Bai Yuqiu.
He was warning her not to speak out of turn, but Bai Yuqiu, now feeling supported, imdiately erupted.
"Who are you trying to scare? Gao Shen, am I supposed to be afraid of you now? Co on, let's sort this out right in front of Han Lie and my sister!"
"Fuck! Are you fucking crazy?"
Gao Shen imdiately broke into a cold sweat, jumped up, and pointed at Bai Yuqiu, cursing.
"You have no sha, but I fucking do!"
The mont he heard that, Han Lie imdiately understood—It was definitely about that matter, the one still eating Gao Shen up inside!
Han Lie then shot Bai Yuxue a look, signaling her to console Bai Yuqiu.
anwhile, he gazed at Gao Shen with a mocking smile and said casually, "Bro Gao, what's going on? I'm here, and you're not even giving face? Do you have a problem with ?"
"No, no!"
Gao Shen felt absolutely miserable, but he had to force a smile, terrified of angering Han Lie.
"I just have a loose tongue. How could I possibly disrespect you?"
The gap between people really is huge.
So would rather lose money than their dignity, seeking only a clear conscience and peace of mind.
Others are already so rich they couldn't spend it all in a lifeti, yet they still cherish money as if it were their life, caring nothing for face or dignity.
And when dealing with soone like Gao Shen, the right move was to keep up the pressure.
If he can vent his anger on Bai Yuqiu, then he can surely vent it on the instigator, Gao Diaomao.
Han Lie fixed his gaze on him and slowly said, "So things have been annoying too, but considering our impending cooperation, I'd prefer not to bring them up.
Bro Gao, if you're always holding sothing back, then this friendship of ours is aningless.
Let's do this: your family matters are your own. I can't and don't want to interfere. As for any irrational behavior from Yuxue, I'll apologize to you on her behalf.
We'll be leaving soon, but to put her mind at ease, I'll call Old Gao to co and help diate for you, okay?"
Fuck! Are you a dog?!
Gao Shen felt his soul practically leave his body and quickly stopped him. "Don't! It was just a montary impulse! You just stay, this has nothing to do with you, really!"
Gao Shen feared many things, and his father topped the list.
Especially with today's events, he truly dared not let his father find out.
Old Gao had repeatedly told him to treat Bai Yuqiu better recently and be mindful of her feelings. Once Bai Yuxue and Han Lie were truly together, there would still be many uses for Bai Yuqiu.
Yet he had managed to ss things up instantly. If his father found out, Gao Shen couldn't imagine the scolding he would receive.
In a panic, he darted over, grabbed Han Lie's arm, and, with a fawning smile, began pulling him towards the dining room.
"Co on, Bro Han, have a few more drinks with . Let ramble a bit, vent so of my frustrations... Yuxue, comfort your sister. Don't leave today; stay and sleep with her... Tomorrow, I'll take you both shopping for bags as an apology!"
This solution was actually quite level-headed and would normally have sufficed to de-escalate the situation.
But the problem was... what were Han Lie and Bai Yuxue here for?
To pick a fight!
Once the two n had disappeared, Bai Yuxue imdiately whispered instructions to Bai Yuqiu, "Han Lie will lay the groundwork for you. After we leave, find a chance to provoke Gao Shen again. If he dares to raise his hand again, call the police imdiately, get a lawyer, and file for divorce..."
Bai Yuqiu touched the corner of her mouth, a hint of ruthlessness flickering in her eyes.
"Is he ready on his end?"
Yuxue nodded. "He should have things mostly set up, right? Anyway, he's the one who ordered it."
"Good! I've been wanting to have a major showdown with the Gao Family for a long ti..."
Bai Yuqiu clenched her teeth, her hatred bone-deep.
A smart man would never wound a woman too deeply, because once a woman becos truly ruthless, n are completely out of the picture.
anwhile, "Dog Lie" was busy disentangling himself from the affair.
"Bro Gao, however you two fight or reconcile, that's your family's business. If it weren't for Yuxue, I wouldn't even want to be here.
So don't bla for ddling—
While we're here, just give us so face. Once Yuxue leaves, you're still the man of the house, the one who calls all the shots... Is my aning clear?"
"I get it, I get it!"
Facing such an understanding Han Lie, who was showing him such consideration, Gao Shen even felt a surge of gratitude.
Look at how clear-headed he is?! He's not taking advantage of his dominant position in our cooperation to boss around, nor is he treating my wife as if she were his after... that thing. Han Lie, this guy, is easy to get along with!
"Alright, I won't bore you with my troubles. Let's drink!"
Gao Shen gulped down half a glass of red wine and, for so reason, suddenly felt a bit tipsy.
As the drunkenness washed over him and his mind grew hazy, he couldn't help but feel aggrieved.
"How have I mistreated her? Huh?! She did that disgusting thing, and I didn't even hold it against her. But she turns around and says *I'm* the dirty one... Fuck!"
He rambled on, basically saying it was all Bai Yuqiu's fault—that she was ungrateful and didn't uphold wifely virtues.
He conveniently forgot that if it weren't for years of suppression under the Gao Family's constant criticism, and her husband's move to transfer assets which had utterly broken her heart, Bai Yuqiu had actually been enduring as much as she possibly could.
For a woman with strong desires, who received neither satisfaction nor care, she had already reached the utmost limit of her fidelity.
Han Lie listened with a sneer as Gao Shen rambled on, trying to shift all bla from himself, his patience gradually wearing thin.
Such a man doesn't even deserve pity if he's out picking trash on the streets...
Don't worry. Your whole family... your ti is almost up!
