The Gu Family residence.
Gu Lihuang was lying on the bed with his legs crossed, listening to the radio. He was surprised to see Ye Rong come back so soon. "Weren't you going to help with dinner? How come you're back?"
"Your sister is with your mom right now, bad-mouthing me and plotting how to torment me in the future. Was I supposed to just barge in and expose them?" Ye Rong gave a sarcastic laugh. "From now on, I'll have to live at the mercy of my mother-in-law and sister-in-law. I'm afraid there's plenty of hardship in store for me. If I don't show them some deference, I'll probably end up being the next Zhang Minzhen."
"Uh..."
Gu Lihuang sat up, his face indignant, and started to get out of bed. "That must be Gu Jinhua's bright idea. Just you wait, I'm going to go have a word with them."
"Go where? Just stay put. If you go stand up for me, it will only make your mom and your sister even more certain that I'm the one causing trouble behind the scenes."
