Chapter 473 Ungrateful Wolves
Chapter 473 Ungrateful Wolves
Qin Yunzhou said without changing his expression, "Then please keep an eye on your son and make sure he doesn't do anything he shouldn't."
"Don't worry, I will never forget the Gu family's kindness in raising me, and I will fulfill all my obligations and responsibilities. But if it goes beyond that, then I'm sorry."
If Gu Shu hadn't done those things back then, he wouldn't have gone to his door to beat him up.
Although he later learned the truth—that Gu Shu had been drugged—Gu Shu, a man who already had a wife, still kept thinking about other men's wives, even openly going to their side and staring at his wife.
Just for this point alone, what normal man could tolerate it?
So that beating wasn't entirely unjust to Gu Shu.
As for the Gu family, his feelings towards them were somewhat complicated. The Gu family had indeed raised him from childhood and had never mistreated him materially.
At that time, the Gu couple were busy with work. In their eyes, work was more important than their child, so they rarely went home to spend time with him.
But to be fair, apart from these things, they hadn't mistreated him in any other way.
One thing at a time, Qin Yunzhou always remembered these things, so when Xu Sui was studying in Beijing with her two children, he didn't deliberately stop them from associating with the Gu family.
She even thought that if they continued to get along like that, it might not be a bad idea to gradually ease the relationship between the two families.
However, the many things that happened afterward made Qin Yunzhou completely realize the Gu family's attitude towards him.
Qin Yunzhou could actually understand, after all, Gu Shu was the biological son.
However, he really couldn't tolerate someone like Xie Yinfang who came to criticize him without distinguishing right from wrong.
Xie Yinfang was furious and slammed the door shut as she left. Before leaving, she glared fiercely at Xu Sui.
"It's all your fault! If it weren't for you, those two brothers wouldn't have ended up like this!"
Xu Sui didn't back down; she glared back without hesitation.
"Director Xie, I'm not taking the blame for this. I'm a victim too."
"If we really have to blame someone, we should blame you for switching them at birth. If you hadn't made that mistake back then, perhaps none of this would have happened today."
"You...you really...lack manners." Xie Yinfang was even angrier, her chest trembling with anger, her face turning red and then green, and she could barely speak.
No wonder he comes from a remote and poor county town. So what if he got into such a good university? So what if he's successful now? He's still so ill-mannered.
Xu Sui shook her head. "It's not me who's ill-mannered, it's you."
"You haven't even figured out the truth of the matter before you come here and start making baseless accusations against others. Are you planning to make things difficult for my husband and me next, and teach us a lesson?"
"Let me guess what your methods are?"
Xu Sui had only said it casually, but upon reflection, it seemed quite possible, so she began to seriously consider it.
"They're not going to find a way to transfer us away from this place to some remote and harsh military region, so that our whole family can never come back in this lifetime, are they?"
Xie Yinfang's eyes widened suddenly as she stared at Xu Sui as if she were looking at a ghost, her face filled with terror, and she couldn't say a word.
Xu Sui: "..."
Seeing Xie Yinfang's expression, her heart skipped a beat, so she decided to stop hiding it and directly ask her the question back.
"I'm not actually right, are you really planning to transfer our whole family, young and old, to one of those remote and harsh military regions?"
"Are you really planning to transfer me away?" Qin Yunzhou also sensed that something was wrong.
He glanced at Xie Yinfang, and suddenly felt a mix of emotions, unsure of what to say.
The military region they are currently in is already considered a remote one. If there were any more remote ones, they would be border regions covered in yellow sand.
That place is arid and water-scarce year-round, and resources are scarce; even supplies have to be transported there by specialized personnel.
He was fine with it; he had been to places with the most difficult conditions when he was on missions. But now they had a large family, with elderly people and children, so it would be very difficult for them to adapt to that kind of place.
Xie Yinfang's expression was somewhat unnatural, but when she thought about how those two people had treated her just now, she hardened her heart and cleared her throat.
"Since you've already guessed it, then I won't hide it from you anymore."
"Anyway, no matter whose son you are, it's a fact that the Gu family raised you. All the days you've lived and all the resources you've enjoyed since you were little should belong to Xiaoshu."
"So whether you admit it or not, you owe Gu Jia and Xiao Shu."
Xie Yinfang felt more and more convinced of her point as she spoke, and her voice gradually grew louder. She even glared at the two of them, her eyes filled with warning.
"I'll remind you one last time: you'd better not covet what isn't yours, and don't forget the favors you owe. Also, if I find out you've laid a hand on the little book again, or if you're up to any ulterior motives..."
"Then don't blame us for being ruthless and transferring your whole family away to build up the frontier corps."
Xu Sui: "..."
Although she had thought about it seriously, it was just a casual remark, and she didn't expect that she would actually guess it correctly.
The Gu family really does have such a plan.
To be honest, the Gu family is now in a high position of power. If someone really had this idea, they could easily get rid of the whole family with just a word.
She had just settled her relatives back home. If she left now, what would happen to them? What would happen to her machinery factory?
What about the elderly and children there? The climate there is harsh; it's not something most people can endure.
Xu Sui subconsciously looked at the man beside her, and suddenly felt a pang of sympathy for him.
What happened last time wasn't really a big deal.
Even Gu Shu himself didn't say anything.
Ultimately, if we really look at it from a critical perspective, Qin Yunzhou didn't do anything wrong.
However, the Gu family was convinced that Qin Yunzhou wanted to suppress and bully Gu Shu, and Xie Yinfang even went so far as to come and warn him about it.
Qin Yunzhou remained silent for a long time, then suddenly felt tired and finally spoke after a long while.
"Don't worry, I will never forget the Gu family's responsibility in raising me, and I will definitely repay them."
"But these things have nothing to do with my wife and children, and have absolutely nothing to do with my family. You shouldn't involve them."
