Chapter 842: Cleaning Up Shi Yuke's Mess

~8 min read 1,517 words

As it turned out, the video only played for a dozen seconds before Shi Youxuan's expression turned very ugly.

She scolded, "Turn it off. I don't want to watch this, and I don't want to see you either. Don't ever come in front of me again in the future."

"Why, Cousin Xuan? I did all this to help you get revenge. Did you forget how Shi Yuke bullied you back then?" She was very confused; she truly did not understand why things were like this.

"Ha!"

Shi Youxuan smiled and reminded her, "It seems your memory is truly poor. Shi Yuke did bully me back then, but you forgot that she wasn't the only one—you were the same!"

"When I was weak back then, you followed Shi Yuke to bully me together. Now that she is ill, you think you can represent me to bully her back, is that it?"

"If I wanted to take revenge, it would be as easy as turning over my hand, but I have already forgiven her. She is already very miserable now and has paid the price for what she once did. Is there any point in you relentlessly pursuing revenge?"

"Only knowing how to bully the weak—what difference is there between you and the old Shi Yuke?"

Actually, there was still a difference, which was that Jiang Siwei was not as clever as the old Shi Yuke; what she did was something one could see through at a glance.

Jiang Siwei was given a good scolding.

Not only was she not angry, but she was instead filled with admiration for Cousin Xuan.

"I was wrong, I truly know I was wrong. Second Cousin, you are truly too kind. I really hate myself—why didn't I play with you sooner..."

She slapped herself in frustration.

Jiang Siwei was stupid and simple-minded; Shi Youxuan really had no way to deal with such a person.

"I will go apologize to Xi Fu immediately and beg him not to be angry with me." Jiang Siwei was quick to correct her mistakes; she didn't need others to save face for her, nor did she feel embarrassed.

"Don't go, and don't go in the future either. I will go talk about this matter for you; don't make things worse by trying to fix them."

This woman's good intentions didn't necessarily lead to good results; her creativity might not be amazing, but her destructive power was certainly astonishing!

Shi Youxuan thought to herself that she was just destined for a life of toil; she couldn't even find peace of mind to nurture her pregnancy.

She was worried and wanted to go to her maiden home to take a look; she had to handle this matter herself.

If her husband knew, he definitely wouldn't let her leave the hospital, so she slipped out quietly.

The Shi Family.

After taking his medicine, Shi Yucheng's blood pressure was at least under control, and he sat in his room sighing and lamenting.

Shi Liu advised her, "Godfather, don't worry. I don't think Brother-in-law is a heartless person; he shouldn't despise Sister Yuke just because of this matter."

"Shi Liu, you are still young, you don't understand!"

Shi Yucheng continued to sigh and lament.

The rotten things his daughter had done in the past had been mentioned by Jiang Siwei, and he had chased her away before she could even say it all.

Even so, his son-in-law's expression had been very ugly. It wasn't hard to imagine the consequences if he knew about everything in his eldest daughter's past.

In fact, he was quite satisfied with his son-in-law, Gu Zhihao.

The man was steady, honest, and had no devious thoughts; he was filial to him and good to Yuke. He usually had no bad habits, and the only thing he liked to do was tinker with delicious food in the kitchen.

He couldn't be more satisfied. How wonderful it would be if such a life could continue forever, but unfortunately, the good days had just begun before they were broken by Jiang Siwei.

If it were before, he wouldn't say anything, and his son-in-law wouldn't think too much about it.

But now his son-in-law was already suspicious; how much longer could this kind of thing be hidden?

Gu Zhihao didn't cook today; he wasn't in the mood.

He handed the vegetable basket to the servant and returned to the room, staring at his wife for a long time!

"Husband, why are you looking at me like that? Is it because I'm very pretty?"

His wife was innocent and naive now, incredibly cute.

"Could she really be like what that woman said—a vain, wicked bad woman?" Gu Zhihao's mind was in chaos.

One moment he felt there was no need to care, and the next he desperately wanted to know everything about his wife's past.

Just at this moment, Shi Youxuan arrived.

"You aren't staying properly in the hospital, why did you run here?" Shi Yucheng was very surprised to see his second daughter.

"Jiang Siwei came, didn't she?"

Shi Yucheng gave a bitter smile: "Yes, nothing can be hidden from you. She came to expose Yuke's past, and I chased her away after she said just a couple of things."

Since his second daughter had come, he recounted everything. In truth, even if he didn't say it, Shi Youxuan could have guessed most of it.

Shi Yucheng: "Xuanxuan, I shouldn't be telling you these things at a time like this, but Dad really has no other way."

"Zhihao asked me about Yuke's past, and I don't know how I should talk to him."

Shi Youxuan: "Tell the truth."

"No, no, that definitely won't do. No man can handle this. If Zhihao finds out everything Yuke once did, he will definitely divorce Yuke."

"He won't." Shi Youxuan was certain: "If you trust me, I will go tell him."

This kind of thing cannot be hidden if one wants to hide it; as long as he wants to know, he will find out sooner or later, but it depends on whose mouth the words come from.

If the second daughter goes to say it, perhaps there is still a glimmer of hope.

But if it comes out of someone else's mouth, then there really won't be any room for reconciliation.

He was just about to agree, but looking at his second daughter's large belly, he hesitated again: "Who did you bring with you? Let the bodyguard and Shi Liu stay by your side to protect you." He was afraid his son-in-law might get agitated and hurt his second daughter.

The Shi Family already owed Xuanxuan too much; he could not have any new regrets.

"No need."

Shi Youxuan refused: "It's not convenient to have others present for this kind of thing; I will go talk to Brother-in-law alone."

Gu Zhihao was Shi Yuke's husband, and they were one; talking about Shi Yuke's ugly past in front of her husband, she feared Gu Zhihao wouldn't be able to save face.

"Then I will accompany you."

"It's fine, I will chat with him alone, there won't be any problems, Dad, don't worry."

This matter had to be said sooner or later; it couldn't be hidden.

If she didn't say it herself, he would sooner or later find out from the neighbors' mouths.

Rather than hearing it from someone else's mouth, it is better to just say it myself.

A family should be honest; if there are secrets between them, it will be an issue sooner or later.

Study.

Gu Zhihao sat upright on the sofa, hugging his knees, feeling uneasy and as nervous as a prisoner waiting for a verdict.

Shi Youxuan spoke up: "Brother-in-law, you really want to know about my sister's past, don't you?"

"Yes."

"Alright, since you want to know, I will tell you; if you want a divorce after hearing it, we won't have any objections."

"But there is one thing: if you consider it and decide to accept her past, you cannot bring it up in your future life, and you are strictly forbidden from using this matter as leverage to attack my sister."

"Of course."

He agreed again.

Gu Zhihao was a man of his word; Shi Youxuan had already seen this from the things he had done before.

Shi Youxuan thought for a moment, then began to tell the story starting from their childhood.

The story was very long, and Gu Zhihao's expression was very grim.

He had thought that Yuke was not a good person before she lost her memory, but he had not expected her to be despicable to that extent!

He could not accept it, but he was reluctant to give up the marriage now.

"Think about it carefully; after all, this is no small matter. Don't make a decision lightly, so as to avoid regretting it later."

"I need to think about it carefully; yes, I really do need to think about it carefully."

Shi Youxuan came out of the Study and told her father that she needed to give her brother-in-law time to accept it.
