Chapter 189 Exposing a Daughter's Body
Gu Wenxiao's voice was low and hoarse, carrying a strong warning tone, and the veins on his forehead throbbed.
Seeing that the situation had escalated successfully, Jiang Yutang not only did not back down, but instead mustered up her courage and moved closer, continuing to poke at his sore spots.
"I heard that Lord Gu is the only son of the Gu family. So this 'impotence' is something he was born with? That's really troublesome. I'm afraid even a god couldn't save him."
"What nonsense are you spouting!"
Gu Wenxiao glared at her fiercely, his eyes looking like he wanted to devour her, and the veins on his hand holding the fan were bulging.
Jiang Yutang, however, pretended to be deep in thought, resting his chin on his hand, and said in a meaningful tone: "Ordinary tonics will definitely not cure your yang deficiency. But if you beg me, I can reluctantly part with a few 'miracle pills' for you to try."
"shut up!"
Gu Wenxiao completely lost it, and shouted angrily: "You've been spouting nonsense from the very beginning! I'm only letting you off the hook because you're a woman, don't push your luck! Angry me will do no good for your Jiang family!"
"What? Did I hit a nerve and you're getting angry?" Jiang Yutang sneered, completely ignoring his warning, her words piercing his heart.
Before he could finish speaking, a muffled thud was heard. Gu Wenxiao could no longer hold back and grabbed Jiang Yutang by the neck, slamming her against the wall.
Jiang Yutang was startled by this sudden action. Her feet left the ground instantly, and she felt a sharp pain in her neck, making it difficult to breathe. All the words she wanted to say were stuck in her throat, and she could only desperately grab his hand and pound it in vain.
Gu Wenxiao's face was very close to hers, his expression so gloomy it was as if he were covered in shadows, his eyes filled with murderous intent, and he warned in a low voice: "I told you, don't provoke me."
Seeing that hitting him was useless and only made him grip the tighter, Jiang Yutang simply gave up struggling and gave him a mocking and contemptuous smile.
His eyes seemed to say, "You really are a man who loses his virility," which deeply hurt Gu Wenxiao's pride.
"court death!"
Gu Wenxiao roared, suddenly let go of Jiang Yutang's hand, and slammed her against the nearby shelf.
"Splash—"
With a loud crash, the shelves collapsed, scattering goods all over the ground. The loud noise startled Dr. Xu in the backyard.
Dr. Xu rushed in and immediately saw the mess on the floor and Jiang Yutang lying on the ground coughing uncontrollably. He shouted angrily, "Stop! How dare you commit violence and assault in broad daylight!"
She quickly stepped forward to help Jiang Yutang up and saw red handprints on the other's neck.
Immediately afterwards, Jiang Sumin rushed in. Seeing Jiang Yutang being bullied, his eyes instantly turned red, and he rushed forward to confront Gu Wenxiao.
"What do you mean? You're assaulting someone in my shop!"
Gu Wenxiao wiped her hands dismissively, as if she had just pinched an ant.
"You should ask her what nonsense she said. She provoked me first, and I was just teaching that arrogant shrew a lesson."
It took Jiang Yutang a while to catch her breath. Still feeling a bit dizzy from lack of oxygen, she waved her hand, signaling the two not to act rashly.
She has obtained the evidence she wanted, and now escalating the conflict is not in their favor.
Jiang Sumin looked at her pale face and gritted his teeth, suppressing his resentment.
Just then, Yun Shi and Jiang Shengan also rushed in upon hearing the noise.
"What's wrong? What was that noise just now?"
Upon entering, Jiang Shengan saw Jiang Yutang sprawled on the floor, shelves overturned and the floor in disarray. Jiang Shengan was so angry that he trembled all over. Without saying a word, he rushed forward and told Gu Wenxiao to fight to the death.
"You bastard! I'll fight you to the death!"
But he was too old to be a match for the young and strong Gu Wenxiao.
Gu Wenxiao kicked him to the ground. Yun was terrified and rushed over to support her husband, crying out in distress, "Old man! How are you?"
"father!"
Jiang Sumin could no longer hold back. He roared and rushed forward, wrestling with Gu Wenxiao.
However, Gu Wenxiao did not come alone. His two attendants immediately stepped forward and pinned Jiang Sumin down on either side.
Gu Wenxiao straightened her disheveled collar, her eyes filled with malice, and kicked Jiang Sumin in the head.
With a muffled thud, Jiang Yutang's eyes widened as she watched blood seep from Jiang Sumin's brows and eyes, sliding down his cheeks.
But Gu Wenxiao was still not satisfied and immediately raised her foot to kick him a second time.
Yun was so frightened that she covered her head and screamed before fainting.
Jiang Yutang shouted, "No!"
In the nick of time, Dr. Xu rushed forward without thinking and grabbed Gu Wenxiao's leg tightly.
Gu Wenxiao was furious and had nowhere to vent her anger. Being stopped only fueled her rage. She grabbed the cloth hat on Doctor Xu's head and threw it away violently.
The cloth hat fell to the ground, and her long, black hair cascaded down, sliding over her shoulders and obscuring Dr. Xu's face!
She fell heavily beside Jiang Sumin, and before she could react, she felt countless eyes on her.
Jiang Sumin, who was standing to the side, was stunned. Forgetting the pain on his face, he stared wide-eyed at Doctor Xu and stammered, "You...you're a woman?"
Dr. Xu belatedly touched his hair, his cheeks instantly turning bright red. Embarrassed, he lowered his head, wishing he could disappear into a crack in the ground.
Gu Wenxiao was also stunned for a moment, then sneered, his eyes even more contemptuous, and he wanted to continue to make a move.
Jiang Yutang struggled to her feet, leaning on the counter, and shouted with all her might, "Enough! This is my shop! You're causing trouble and hitting people here! Is there no law anymore?!"
"The law?"
Gu Wenxiao sneered, his tone extremely arrogant: "In Danzhou, I am the law! Smash it! Smash this lousy shop to pieces!"
Upon receiving the order, the two attendants immediately began to wreak havoc. Shelves were overturned one by one, goods were trampled on at will, and the sounds of shattering porcelain and breaking wooden planks rose and fell.
Gu Wenxiao stood aside, watching coldly until the shop was smashed to pieces. Only then did the anger in his heart subside slightly. He turned around and left with his entourage.
Even though the onlookers couldn't stand it anymore, they didn't dare to step forward to stop them. They were all full of indignation. After the onlookers left, everyone went into the shop to help Jiang Yutang's family pack up their things.
"Gu Wenxiao is too arrogant! He's utterly lawless!"
"The Jiang family is so pitiful. All the men have gone to the northern frontier, and they are bullied like this!"
Amid the murmurs, someone noticed Doctor Xu standing to the side and exclaimed in surprise, "Huh? This Doctor Xu... is actually a woman?"
In an instant, all eyes were focused on Dr. Xu.
She was already embarrassed by her identity being exposed, and being surrounded and talked about by so many people made her even more ashamed. In desperation, she forced back her tears, got up, covered her face, and ran quickly out of the shop towards the military camp.
"Hey! Dr. Xu!"
Jiang Yutang watched her retreating figure, then glanced at the mess on the ground and her injured family members, and the coldness in his eyes grew stronger.
Originally, I only wanted to get evidence of Gu Wenxiao's rampant misbehavior today, but I didn't expect to implicate Doctor Xu.
Jiang Sumin watched Doctor Xu's fleeing figure for a long time before he came to his senses. He immediately turned to Jiang Yutang and asked, "Did you know all along that Doctor Xu was a woman?"
