Chapter 289 Heartless



When the prison guards saw the two men wrestling, they immediately stepped forward and separated them.

"I'm warning you! If you cause any more trouble, your visiting time will be cut off immediately!"

Li Yaxian then slightly loosened her grip on Qiao Xiyan's throat.

The two disliked each other and just glared at each other...

After a while, the two finally stopped fighting amidst the angry shouts of the prison guards.

Why did you do this to me?

Qiao Xiyan gave a mocking smile, "Because you're stupid... Is that reason enough?"

"You... after all I've done for you... this is how you treat me?"

Qiao Xiyan tidied her hair, which Li Yaxian had just messed up. "Don't make yourself sound so great. You know why you're always running around here whenever you have free time."

"Don't you just like being flattered and hearing nice things? I'm happy to say them, and you're happy to listen. We're a perfect match, which is great."

"Have I been bad to you?"

"You know in your heart whether it's good or bad. In the entire Gu family, apart from your husband who always puts you first and is willing to fawn over you, there probably isn't anyone else who would want to pay attention to you."

"If you can't feel a sense of presence, just keep getting close to me and say a few nice words, and you'll be at my beck and call. Why not?"

"At your age, you still live such a childish life. When you do something wrong, you never think about apologizing or making amends. You come to me every day to complain."

"If you weren't somewhat useful, who would bother with you?"

"Why are you acting like a resentful woman? Who would genuinely like someone as selfish as you?"

"To tell you the truth... actually, letting you adopt my son was just the trigger. I never thought you would actually fall for it and really fall out of love with your son and husband for a child you have no connection with."

"Useless thing... I thought you were so capable, but it turns out you're completely useless."

Li Yaxian was so angry that her veins bulged. It was all her fault. Under the instigation of this vicious woman, she hadn't seen what her grandson looked like for three years.

I can only see the photos.

"Then...then...was what you told me about giving Su Ying a hard time also a lie?"

Qiao Xiyan pursed her lips and looked at her with an expression that said she was an idiot.

What do you mean by that?

"Don't you understand what I mean? I'm making sure your Gu family has no peace. I never imagined I could make your Gu family have no peace without lifting a finger, and I'm so happy about it."

"You don't naively think that after your son treated me like this, I would still continue to offer you advice so that you can live a happy life while I suffer in prison, do you?"

Li Yaxian was struggling to breathe and couldn't utter a single word as she pointed at the venomous woman in front of her.

"You...you..."

Now that we've already torn off all pretense, there's no need to keep pretending; it's exhausting...

"If there's nothing else, please leave... I'm tired... I don't have time to deal with you."

Seeing the person stand up and walk into the prison, Li Yaxian angrily grabbed her, saying, "You vicious woman, you're the one who caused my current predicament, and you still want to just walk away?"

"You wish... I'll beat you to death, you vicious woman... I'll beat you to death..."

A new round of hair-pulling...pinching with fingertips...it's started again...

The prison guards went to great lengths to separate the two.

One person was taken to prison, and the other was driven out.

Three days later.

Li Yaxian's punishment has been announced: she has been sentenced to two years of reform through labor at a farm in Northwest China.

Fortunately, there were no casualties, otherwise the penalty would have been much heavier.

Gu Yuanhong escorted her to the train station. Li Yaxian looked at Gu Sishi and Gu Yuanhong with teary eyes.

"Yuan Hong...you really won't come with me? The environment in the Northwest is so harsh, I can't survive without you. Can you ask our son to use his connections to get me sent back to Willow Tree Village?"

“Our eldest daughter, Siqing, is there and can take good care of me. I’m completely unfamiliar with the Northwest; I’d be in big trouble there.”

Even if Li Yaxian hadn't said it, he had thought about it before. After all, he couldn't bear to see the person who had spent half his life with him suffer.

But the son was determined and had no intention of getting involved in the matter.

"Dad... please stop protecting her... have you forgotten how many wrong things she's done?"

"It's just a two-year reform program on the farm. I'll be back soon. It's good that I've gotten rid of some of my bad habits."

"She clearly knew that Qiao Xiyan had ill intentions, but she was still willing to get close to her. Haven't you ever thought about why?"

“My father-in-law gave a strict order… no matter what the verdict is this time, you cannot use my name to pull strings. The higher-ups have already cast suspicious eyes on me.”

“I’d like to give you some advice, Dad… Don’t think about arranging a better place for her or feeding her better food. These are not advisable… Once you start making connections, whether our whole family should continue to be reformed is not something I can decide on my own.”

Upon hearing this, Gu Yuanhong visibly clenched his fists even tighter.

"I see."

"Dad... don't feel bad... it's good that she went to the Northwest to reform... it's a good thing for our family, otherwise being targeted in Beijing is not a good thing."

"If you do something wrong, you should take responsibility."

"I know what to do."

After hanging up the phone, Gu Yuanhong smoked out the whole pack of Hero brand cigarettes in Zhongshan's pocket...

I was already feeling down because I hadn't slept all night, and the pain was intense. After taking the person to the train station, I heard all this nonsense.

He was in a terrible mood and snapped a sentence at the top of his lungs.

"Once you get there, you'll undergo proper reformation... I'll find a way to bring you back after your service is over."
