Chapter 139: Chapter 139 Gu Yan, Are You a Pig!
Mrs. Gu’s eyes were already red, and she didn’t even glance at Gu’s father, nor did she see him collapse in pain on the ground, as she relentlessly hit Gu Yan.
Gu Yan was struck once, feeling intense pain, with no spare thought to dodge. Mrs. Gu swung again, this time hitting her left arm. Gu Yan instinctively wanted to touch it, but it tugged on the wound on her right hand, and the pain in her right shoulder also surged.
She took another hit on the back, and the pain was beyond words.
Though getting beaten was routine, in recent years Gu Yan had been working outside and hadn’t returned home much, so naturally, Mrs. Gu hadn’t had the chance to hit her. Now it seemed she wanted to make up for all the years she missed.
Mrs. Gu wanted to swing the stick heavily again, but it froze mid-air, unable to move.
Gu Yan’s whole strength leaned against the wall. The stick didn’t fall for a good while, and she heard a man’s restrained, angry voice, "Gu Yan, are you a pig! Standing there letting people hit you!"
Surprised, she looked up and saw Tang Yuxiu’s gloomy, indifferent face.
"You..."
Tang Yuxiu turned his eyes and coldly looked at Mrs. Gu, forcefully pushing the hand holding the stick, causing Mrs. Gu to stagger back several steps. If not for a hospital bed in the way, she would have fallen to the ground.
Mrs. Gu widened her eyes at the suddenly appearing man, and Gu’s father was also puzzled.
This man’s aura was so strong they couldn’t look directly at him, not daring to even breathe.
Gu Yan was the first to react, and without considering how Tang Yuxiu got in, she hurriedly staggered to Gu’s father’s side, crouching down despite her pain, supporting Gu’s father’s upper body, "Dad, how are you? Did you hurt your wound?"
Gu’s father finally came to his senses, the pain in his leg causing him to knit his brows tightly, a faint pain emerging from his heart.
Seeing Gu’s father’s painful expression, Gu Yan knew it had aggravated his injuries.
"Dad, can you speak? Where does it hurt?"
Gu’s father stiffened his body, gritting his teeth, with cold sweat instantly seeping from his forehead, his voice trembling, "Leg... heart..."
Both were triggered!
At this time, Mrs. Gu also noticed Gu’s father lying on the ground in excruciating pain, suddenly sobering up, rushing to Gu’s father’s side, and pushing Gu Yan away violently.
Gu Yan was unprepared, nearly crashing into the wall when pushed away, and without Gu Yan’s hand to support him, Gu’s father’s upper body fell to the ground again. He let out a muffled groan, feeling pain all over.
Mrs. Gu screamed, "Old Gu, how are you, please don’t have any problems, if something happens, wouldn’t it benefit this brute!"
At this moment, Gu Yan didn’t care about what Mrs. Gu was saying, hurriedly getting up from the ground to find a doctor.
Tang Yuxiu forcefully pulled her back, sternly saying, "Press the button."
Only then did Gu Yan remember she could press the emergency button to call the doctor, turning back to press it repeatedly.
She turned to Tang Yuxiu and said, "Can you help me lift my dad back onto the bed?"
She didn’t care about whether he had a phobia now; she didn’t have that much strength, and Mrs. Gu was even less capable. It was only Tang Yuxiu, as a man, who had the strength to lift Gu’s father up without causing more severe injuries to him.
Tang Yuxiu furrowed his brows slightly, seeing Gu Yan’s pleading eyes, struggling inside for a moment before compromising and walking towards Gu’s father.
Mrs. Gu was still crying hysterically, and Tang Yuxiu unceremoniously said, "Shut up! Move aside!"
Towards Mrs. Gu, he had already clearly heard outside how she treated Gu Yan, only feeling a wave of disgust.
