Chapter 563 Let's do something big...
Chu Xin stepped into the room with a leisurely air, paused for a moment, and then considerately closed the door behind her.
Since she entered, everyone's eyes have followed her every move, an inexplicable tacit understanding and... absurdity.
The stares were too intense, and Chu Xin didn't want to be scrutinized like that. She glanced at Zhou Yichen and saw that he was fine except for some bruises on his face, then turned her gaze to Old Master Gao. "You're just going to watch them fight like that?"
Old Master Gao sighed deeply, puffed out his beard, and glared, saying:
"Do you think either of them will listen to me?"
If it weren't for the last bit of face the Gao family had left, they would have called a small team to hold those two down and beat them up. Even if he were twenty or thirty years younger, he would definitely have stepped in. But none of that is possible!
Grandma Gao, who had been anxiously watching Gao Ziyou being beaten, saw Chu Xin come in and, instead of intervening, start chatting with her husband. She was furious and grabbed Grandpa Gao's arm, yelling, "What's wrong with you? Is this the time to talk? Hurry up and save your grandson! Oh my goodness, look what he's done to him!"
She spoke with such sincerity that Chu Xin was genuinely distracted and glanced at Gao Ziyou, then couldn't help but twitch her lips.
Then, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.
A gaze, like a thorn in her back, was fixed on her back. Chu Xin didn't need to look to know it was that protective old lady, Gao.
She pursed her lips perfunctorily to indicate that she was really trying to control herself, "Sorry, it was just a sudden thing and I couldn't help it."
It's her fault for coming in and immediately thinking about how Zhou Yichen was doing, without carefully looking at Gao Ziyou who was pinned down by him. Who would have thought that Zhou Yichen not only gave him a pair of black eyes, but also made his nose red, swollen and covered in blood.
It had the feel of a terrifying clown from Nightmare on Earth, but Gao Ziyou's frustrated and angry expression added a touch of humor, so it's no wonder she laughed at first glance.
It's just human nature; we should be more understanding.
Grandpa Gao's arm ached from the twisting, and his eyebrows were furrowed in pain. He looked speechlessly at Chu Xin, who seemed to be saying, "I was just smiling and I meant no harm." He could only try to mediate between them.
"Ahem, it's understandable that you lack self-control since you're still a child. Now, could you please try to persuade Comrade Zhou?"
"Let's talk this out. It's not that the Gao family is afraid of resorting to violence, but we don't want to cause any more trouble. If I really take Zhou's forceful actions to heart, I will make sure you don't leave Ning City!"
The old commander got angrier and angrier as he spoke. He now knew how stubborn the Zhou family's kid was. He didn't give him any face at all. It was something that happened so many years ago, and it wasn't even about him or himself. Was it necessary to make such a big deal out of it?
Even though the families of the fallen soldiers are no longer pursuing the matter.
Yesterday, he confessed to his two grandsons about Yu Jing's affair, and then, with Gao Ziyang's consent, he found a way to verify whether he was a descendant of the Gao family.
The original intention was to reduce Gao Ziyou's anger through this incident, and to allow Gao Ziyang to be more obedient during his time in the countryside because of his mother, so that he could also have some respite.
Unexpectedly, when the results came out, one was eager to fight and kill, and the other was racking his brains to save his mother. Neither of them made him feel at ease. And today, Zhou Yichen came to add to his troubles. How could he not have any objections?
Thinking about his decision to have his things packed and send Gao Ziyang away as soon as he had completely given up hope, he also began to wonder if he should find a place where Gao Ziyou could also have his rough edges smoothed out.
It's a pity there isn't one.
Chu Xin seemed not to have heard what Grandpa Gao said. She looked at Zhou Yichen and asked, "Did he go back on his word? Then why were you so lenient? You should have crippled one of his legs first."
The elderly couple from the Gao family stared wide-eyed: What the hell? Say it again!
Gao Ziyou turned to look at Chu Xin, then spat a mouthful of bloody water on the ground in hatred, "Pah!"
Zhou Yichen laughed silently, his cool and handsome face visibly beaming with joy.
Unconditional favoritism is the most addictive.
Since Chu Xin entered, the two of them have not exchanged any words, but they both firmly believe that the other will unconditionally trust and help them.
He could continue to suppress Gao Ziyou, and Chu Xin would take care of any trouble that followed; this was their tacit understanding.
It's a tacit understanding that they've built up little by little from their first meeting to their friendship and deep connection.
With a forceful push, Zhou Yichen shoved Gao Ziyou to the ground. He stood up straight and looked at him coldly, but spoke to Chu Xin instead.
"Not yet, but if some people continue to be stubborn, it's worth a try."
Grandma Gao rushed over to help Gao Ziyou. Hearing the two of them singing in unison almost made her brain burst. Her trembling fingers pointed at Chu Xin, and even Zhou Yichen pointed at her a few times, "Outrageous! Spouting nonsense, they don't respect the Gao family at all! Old man, arrest them all!"
Even in a communist society, where the people are the masters, there's no reason for them to stand idly by when someone comes to attack them!
And then there's Zhou Yichen. Why doesn't he stay in Kyoto? Why does he rush to Ning City to cause trouble for the Gao family? He really doesn't respect them at all. How can anyone tolerate this?!
Grandpa Gao's head was buzzing from the noise. His wife didn't know the inside story, so how could he possibly follow suit? He didn't want to think about anything else right now, he just hoped that Zhou Yichen could leave Ning City as soon as possible and give his family some peace.
"Sigh, young people are often hot-tempered and just say what they mean. You're an elder, so don't make a scene."
After speaking to Old Mrs. Gao, Old Mr. Gao looked at Zhou Yichen and tried to lower his eyebrows to make himself look more kind.
"You know that Ziyou is a bit mentally unstable. What happened back then was so sudden and the result was extremely tragic. It was a miracle that he was the only one left out of the whole team. How could he possibly remember so many things?"
Even if he reached some agreement with you in order to bring down Yu Jing, it doesn't count for anything based on his own circumstances, right?
Even if we take a step back and say that Ziyou told you what you wanted to know, who can guarantee that what he said was true and not something he imagined due to being stimulated?
"Young man of the Zhou family, you're so smart, how could you do something so impulsive? It's not worth it!"
His words sounded quite plausible, and Chu Xin understood exactly what was going on.
Well, so Zhou Yichen impulsively attacked the Gao family, beating Gao Ziyou mercilessly, because he couldn't lay a hand on Old Master Gao!
The old man spoke so righteously, but he just didn't want Gao Ziyou or even the entire Gao family to get involved in trouble, so he forcibly shut Gao Ziyou up and prevented him from speaking.
A person who can command such respect from a former military region commander must be no ordinary individual, especially now that the country, though in turmoil, is generally stable. This person is certainly no longer holding the official position he once held.
She looked at Zhou Yichen with sympathy, and seeing the anger surging in his eyes, she knew he had also thought of it, but he was unwilling to give in.
It seems they'll have to go all out to uncover the truth of what happened back then...
