Chapter 314: Chapter 314: The Value of a Spare Tire
Gu Jiahui gently patted Mrs. Yang’s hand, "Auntie, don’t worry."
"Mingming hasn’t eaten yet, persuade her to eat something, don’t let her get too hungry." Mrs. Yang quickly reminded.
Gu Jiahui agreed.
He went upstairs and found Yang Mingming throwing a tantrum in the room, making a complete mess, with things smashed all over the place.
As soon as Gu Jiahui walked in, a bottle of lotion was hurled at him, nearly hitting his head.
He quickly dodged.
Yang Mingming heard the door open and was about to scream but saw it was Gu Jiahui.
She was furious.
She stepped forward and pushed Gu Jiahui hard, "Get out of my house! You disgust me, you’ve dirtied my carpet!"
Her face was red with anger.
Gu Jiahui didn’t move, letting her push him, leaning against the door.
When she couldn’t push him, she started hitting him.
She hit Gu Jiahui a few times, and he grabbed her hands, "Stop acting crazy!"
"Who are you calling crazy?" Yang Mingming shouted angrily, "How dare you control me?"
Gu Jiahui’s eyes flickered with anger, seemingly annoyed by her hitting, "I am controlling you, look at what you’ve become!"
He held her down and forcefully pinned her against the wall.
Yang Mingming struggled initially.
Gu Jiahui looked weak but was actually very strong, keeping Yang Mingming immobilized.
After a struggle, Yang Mingming ran out of energy, stopped kicking him, and started crying out of frustration.
She felt humiliated.
People on the forum insinuated she had set Sheng Tang up with a video.
It was true, she had done it meticulously, leaving no solid evidence for others.
But she always saw herself as a princess above all. Being suspected of scheming against Sheng Tang was putting her in the position of a vile character, which she couldn’t tolerate.
This was what infuriated her.
After two failures, she was losing confidence in her own manipulations.
To make matters worse, Gu Jiahui was now being pursued by Sheng Tang. He might turn around and be with Sheng Tang.
This was supposed to be her lackey, how could she let Sheng Tang have him?
She understood that even without Sheng Tang, Gu Shiting would be hard to win over, Sheng Tang’s presence made no difference.
Moreover, she still didn’t understand the relationship between Gu Shiting and Sheng Tang.
All in all, she couldn’t figure out her own emotions, she didn’t know whether to be happy or sad.
If Sheng Tang confessed to someone else, she would have been delighted, so why Gu Jiahui?
How much of Yang Mingming’s territory did that ugly girl want to invade?
She cried her heart out.
Mrs. Yang quickly went upstairs, seeing her daughter subdued, she let out a sigh of relief.
She wanted to comfort Yang Mingming, but Gu Jiahui shook his head, indicating he had it under control.
An hour later, he managed to calm Yang Mingming down.
Under his persuasion, Yang Mingming ate some bird’s nest porridge.
Mrs. Yang was very grateful, repeatedly saying to Gu Jiahui, "Without you, I wouldn’t know what to do."
Gu Jiahui smiled and said it was nothing.
After he left, Mrs. Yang thought, "This child is really good. His father, Gu You, has done very well in business over the past few years. His only flaw is his shallow family background."
Gu Jiahui’s father didn’t come from a high status, achieving today’s success on his own.
In a top-tier family like the Yangs, that was somewhat unsatisfactory.
Gu Jiahui thought to himself, the Yang mother and daughter seemed very grateful on the surface, but deep down they still looked down on him, which he found amusing.
He quietly rubbed his wrist, looking at his hands, thinking that he would eventually have to stain them with blood to truly become strong.
