Chapter 790: Chapter 794: Do you want to feed you again?
She sighed, “In any case, I’d rather see him punished while he is alive. Once he’s dead, he’ll know nothing-even if dogs were to consume his ashes. Fang Haichuan wouldn’t be aware of it either.”
“He did face retribution when he was alive,” Gu Junzhu stroked her cheek and said: “How do you think he got his heart disease? It was because of all the guilty deeds he’d done, unending worries, always on edge, that’s how he got it. He was only in his sixties and the average lifespan now is in the seventies. If he hadn’t committed so many sins, he could’ve at least lived for another decade. This is as good as his own conscience meting out his death sentence.”
Ye Xingbei smirked, “Did he even have a conscience? I didn’t see it.”
“Maybe just a bit?” Gu Junzhu said, “He raised Ah Yao very responsibly, pampering him even more than Fang Yixian and Fang Mingzhu. Before Ah Yao enlisted, he gave him a large sum of money. If he didn’t have a shred of conscience, Ah Yao wouldn’t have had a chance to grow up; he’d have killed him long ago.”
Ye Xingbei thought about it and nodded, “That’s true.”
She heaved a melancholic sigh, raised her eyes to the ceiling with a dazed gaze: “That’s to say, human nature, it’s too complicated.”
Just like Ye Wuwei, she was the same person, but when she thought she was Jiang Zhengxing’s daughter, he treated her as if she was nothing.
Once he found out that she was his own daughter, he treasured her as if she was a pearl in his palm, looking at her with a flaming passion in his eyes.
It has both a good side and a bad side.
Unless one is a psychopath, relentlessly wicked, there will always be a little soft spot in their heart.
Human nature is just that complicated.
Returning to the villa, as soon as they entered, the Qiao Family’s butler came over to pay his respects to Gu Junzhu: “The young lady is back.”
Ye Xingbei was taken aback.
Tomorrow is the anniversary of Qiao Zui’s parents’ death. Qiao Yi must have rushed back to pay her respects.
Ye Xingbei looked towards Gu Junzhu.
Gu Junzhu casually said, “Put her up in the side building.”
Fifth Lord of Gu perfectly exemplified what it means to steal another’s nest, and he did it so blatantly.
This is clearly the Qiao’s place, and Qiao Yi is the rightful owner, yet the cheeky Fifth Lord of Gu sends the Qiao’s young lady to the side building!
The funny part is, the butler humbly accepted and turned to make arrangements.
Ye Xingbei was dumbfounded.
She tugged on Gu Junzhu’s sleeve: “Hey, isn’t this going a bit too far? Have you forgotten something? This is the Qiao’s house!”
“So what?” Fifth Lord of Gu huffed and strode into the house, “In this world, if you’re in the right, you stand tall. She’s staying in the side house because I say so. Let’s see if she dares to argue with me.”
She felt this saying needed a little tweaking.
It’s not ‘the one who’s right, stands tall’, it should be ‘the one who’s shameless, stands tall’.
After washing her hands, Ye Xingbei sliced up some fruit and handed it to Gu Junzhu: “Stop pushing it, man. Why do you need to hold such a grudge? Qiao Yi has already divorced that jerk and reformed. What more do you want? Aren’t you her real uncle?”
“Exactly because I am her uncle, I arranged for her to stay in the side house,” Gu Junzhu disdainfully pushed the fruit back to Ye Xingbei: “I want it cut into pieces.”
“You’re impossible,” Ye Xingbei slapped him in exasperation, “Do you want me to feed it to you after I cut it up?”
