Chapter 34: This Is Just the Beginning

~10 min read 1,957 words

When Zihan and Yu Ke finished eating and were about to secretly pay, they found out that Liuli had already paid.

"I'm wondering how Abo can manage by himself." Yu Ke said, resting her head on her hands. "You and Zihan went back, and Abo let us go back too, and wouldn't let us help anymore."

Liuli was silent after hearing it. If she were as rich as Gù Die, she wouldn't let Abo keep the shop open; she would let him retire in peace.

"Let us help, although it's a bit tiring, it's also very happy." Yu Ke continued. "I've never had so many friends before, and the most important thing is that I can see Bai Xu when I go to help."

"Bai Xu? You're interested in that guy?"

Zihan asked as soon as she heard it. Yu Ke didn't know why she said whatever was on her mind.

"Me? Just joking!"

"Saying one thing and meaning another."

Liuli directly exposed Yu Ke.

"What's there to be embarrassed about? Everyone is friends. Besides, I even confessed to Cheng Li in person."

"Your skin is thick, I can't learn that!"

"Su Yu Ke!"

"Alright, you two."

"Liuli, she's scolding me!"

Zihan complained to Liuli.

"You two are really childish."

Liuli took her phone and went out, and Zihan and Yu Ke hurriedly followed.

"Liuli, where are we going now?"

Yu Ke asked.

"I want to go to Abo's place to take a look first."

"That's fine."

Yu Ke laughed.

"You're going to see Abo, not to see Bai Xu, why are you happy?"

Zihan retorted.

"You can't see Cheng Li, so you're in a bad mood? And you're retorting me everywhere?"

Yu Ke and Zihan argued.

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

"If you two argue again, I'll throw you both out."

As soon as Liuli spoke, both of them shut their mouths.

When they arrived at the barbecue shop, they saw a mess.

"What's going on?"

Yu Ke asked when she saw the barbecue shop in this state.

When they entered, they saw Abo lying on the rocking chair.

"Abo, what happened?"

Zihan asked.

"You're here? Nothing, just a group of people came to find trouble."

Abo stood up when he saw them coming.

"Are you okay?"

Yu Ke asked. Liuli scanned Abo from top to bottom, and only felt relieved when she saw he was fine.

She wasn't worried about Abo's skills at all. After all, Abo was a retired soldier, and hooligans had come to find trouble before, but Abo had beaten them away in a few moves. No one in the neighborhood who knew Abo dared to come and provoke him.

But who had come to provoke him?

"Abo, did you offend anyone?"

Zihan asked.

"I'm already at such an old age, where would I have the energy to offend others!" Abo laughed.

"Did you call the police?"

Yu Ke said.

"I called the police, but they don't know who they are, and the police don't care."

Abo said with some helplessness.

"Isn't this bullying people?"

Yu Ke stood up for Abo.

Since the matter had already happened, asking more questions was useless.

Liuli turned around to clean up outside, looking at the broken tables and chairs, not knowing what to feel inside.

Fortunately, Abo wasn't hurt.

Zihan and Yu Ke also went to help Liuli when they saw it.

"These bastards, I won't let them off!"

Yu Ke scolded while cleaning up.

Liuli's phone vibrated; someone sent her a message, so she opened her phone to look.

"This is just the beginning."

The sender was Feng Wei.

She finally understood that Feng Wei had done all of this.

Was she forcing her to leave Gù Die?

Liuli felt a burst of discomfort inside; how come Abo was also dragged into this?

Seeing Liuli's worried look, Zihan and Yu Ke didn't dare to go over and talk to her; her whole body was radiating cold air.

After finally finishing the work, most of the tables and chairs were broken, and new ones had to be purchased.

Yu Ke made a phone call, and after a while, someone brought new tables and chairs.

Liuli didn't know how to thank her.

When they left, Abo stuffed money into Yu Ke's hand, but Yu Ke didn't want it, saying she would just let Abo treat her to a few barbecues next time.

Liuli also secretly put the money she had on her back into the drawer where Abo kept his money.

What could the money she had do?

Whenever there was extra money, Abo knew it was Liuli who gave it.

Every time Abo saw extra money, even if it was five or ten yuan, he would be teary-eyed.

That was Liuli's heart. When she was little, she had even secretly stuffed one or two yuan to Abo. She only felt that if Abo had money, he wouldn't have to work so hard to earn money.

While driving, Liuli was still thinking about Feng Wei's matter.

She also wanted a divorce, but she couldn't, and she didn't know what Feng Wei would do next.

"Liuli, what's wrong?"

Yu Ke couldn't help but ask, and Zihan was also waiting for her answer.

"Nothing."

"How can it be nothing? You've been worried since you came out of the barbecue shop."

Zihan said.

"Do you know who went to the barbecue shop to find trouble?"

Yu Ke guessed it instantly.

"It was Feng Wei."

Liuli answered. Since she had guessed it, she didn't need to hide anything from them.

"Feng Wei? She wasn't like this before, was she?"

Zihan was puzzled. Although Feng Wei had a young miss's temper, she wouldn't go as far as doing such things.

"Think about it carefully, Feng Wei was originally Young Master Gu's fiancée, and suddenly Young Master Gu and Liuli got married. Do you think she can not hate Liuli?"

Yu Ke said to Zihan.

"Then why did she do this?"

Zihan still couldn't understand the reason why Feng Wei did this.

"You are really stupid! Of course, she is jealous of Liuli and wants to take revenge on her?!"

Zihan understood after thinking about it. Feng Wei even hit Liuli today.

Fortunately, when she picked up Yu Ke, Liuli's face was no longer swollen, otherwise, Yu Ke would have gone to find Feng Wei again.

"She actually did something like this!"

Zihan became even angrier when she thought of Abo's helpless expression. Could Feng Wei just bully people because of her family background? She couldn't swallow this breath.

"I'm going to tell cousin and let him teach Feng Wei a lesson."

"What's the use of telling him?"

Liuli retorted.

"Someone is bullying you, and he won't manage it?"

"He won't manage it."

Yu Ke understood what Liuli meant instantly.

"Young Master Gu even kissed Feng Wei in front of Liuli and everyone at school last time, how could he do anything to Feng Wei? You're asking for trouble!"

Yu Ke whispered to Zihan, but it was still heard by Liuli.

"Then what should we do? Who else can give her a lesson besides cousin? I don't understand why uncle would betroth such a person to cousin."

Gu Qing just felt that he didn't have much time left and just wanted to find a wife for Gù Die in advance, otherwise, he couldn't leave in peace.

And Feng Wei had liked Gù Die since she was a child, and they knew each other well, so it couldn't be more suitable for him to be with Feng Wei.

Zihan also knew Feng Wei liked Gù Die, but as long as Gù Die had Liuli in his heart, he wouldn't ignore this matter. The only person who could make Feng Wei retreat in the face of difficulties was Gù Die; no matter what others did, it would be useless.

But she didn't know that Gù Die had also kissed Feng Wei in public. At this point, Zihan didn't know if Gù Die had Liuli in his heart or not.

"You don't need to manage it, I have a way for this matter."

"What way?"

Zihan asked.

Liuli just smiled and didn't speak.

"Don't mess around! You're not going to die together with her, are you?!"

Yu Ke felt that things weren't that simple when she saw Liuli smile.

"What are you thinking!"

Liuli gave Yu Ke a speechless look.

"That's good, your smile is quite scary."

"Is it that exaggerated?"

"Of course, you've had a 'strangers stay away' look since you got on the car, and now you're suddenly smiling, who can stand it? Right, Zihan!"

"No, you're overthinking it!"

Zihan replied.

"Forget it, you don't understand!"

"We're home, get out of the car."

Liuli stopped the car.

"We're here so fast, okay, goodbye!"

Yu Ke didn't want to get out of the car yet.

"Liuli, are you really not planning to tell Gù Die?"

Zihan still couldn't help but ask.

"No."

"Then what if Feng Wei finds trouble with you again?"

"It's fine if she finds trouble with me, but it's not okay if she finds trouble with the people around me."

"She wants you two to divorce?"

"You could say that."

"What did you mean just now when you said you had a way?"

"This, I don't need to find Gù Die, I can also find Mr. Gu. Feng Wei treats me like this because of Gù Die. Gù Die can't protect me, but Mr. Gu won't ignore it."

"Your way is to find uncle for help? But he's even harder to talk to than cousin!"

Zihan thought Liuli had some good way! It wasn't even certain if she could see Mr. Gu, let alone ask him for help.

"Uncle is much easier to talk to than Gù Die, okay?"

"Chu Liuli, is your brain different from others?"

Zihan hadn't talked much to Gu Qing since she grew up.

But Liuli didn't think Gu Qing was very strict, nor did she think Gu Qing was very indifferent.

He even said at the company last time that he wanted those people to take care of her more.

She joked with him, and he didn't get angry either.

"Does everyone's brain have to be the same?"

Liuli laughed.

"Forget it, you'll know!"

Zihan didn't believe Gu Qing could help her. He didn't even help his own son, let alone her?

From childhood to adulthood, Gu Qing was as cold as a stone to Gù Die; he wouldn't care about him, and he wouldn't help him when he encountered things.

That's why Gù Die was so independent now, doing everything without relying on the Gu Family's reputation and status.

Returning to the Gu Family, they saw a car parked outside.

Liuli was just wondering if Gu Qing had come, and as soon as she entered, it was just as she expected.

He came just at the right time.

Gù Die and Gu Qing were still sitting on the sofa with cold faces, neither of them speaking.

Zihan wasn't surprised to see this scene; she had seen it many times.

It was good that they didn't quarrel.

Gù Die always felt that Gu Qing had been coming a bit too frequently these days.

In the past, he wouldn't come unless there was something major, and he lived in a house as big as the Gu Family's by himself.

Gù Die hadn't lived with him since he could remember.

"Uncle!"

Zihan shouted.

"Zihan? When did you return to the country?"

Gu Qing asked.

"I came back a few days ago, I haven't found a chance to see you."

"Stay for a few more days since you're back."

"Okay."

"Hello, uncle."

Liuli greeted. ===== CHAPTER 35 =====
