This slap stunned Tang Xiaoran.
This was the first time she had ever seen her father so angry.
"Dad, you..."
"Shut up!" Professor Tang roared. "If you continue to be so stubborn, believe me, I'll fire you from the aerospace institute! How could you be so confused? You've only known Jingya for a few days, and you're already gossiping about her? Do you think that just because you've been Xiao Gu's superior for a few days, you understand him and have become his mentor? Foolish, ignorant!"
Professor Tang's every word was like a steel knife, stabbing into Tang Xiaoran's heart.
Tang Xiaoran covered her burning face, biting her lip, on the verge of tears.
"Do you know what kind of relationship Xiao Gu and Jing Ya have? Jing Ya was with Xiao Gu when he was a sent-down youth! They progressed together and were admitted to the Imperial University of Beijing together. Jing Ya was even the top liberal arts student that year! Choosing to go into business is their freedom. Do you think that just because you have a doctorate, your moral character is superior to Jing Ya's? Jing Ya is more sensible than you! Look at what you're doing now. How is that any different from being a mistress? You're utterly shameful!"
Tang Xiaoran was so scolded that she didn't dare to utter a sound.
“If you dare to criticize Jingya again for any reason, or try to get close to Xiao Gu, don’t blame me for being ruthless as her father! Jingya is Professor Xu’s granddaughter, and Professor Xu and I have been friends for decades. If you keep acting like this, the truth will come out. If Professor Xu finds out that I have such a shameless daughter, he will definitely break off all ties with me! I can’t afford to lose face like that!”
After delivering this stern warning, Professor Tang, filled with anger, went home alone.

This warning had some effect; Tang Xiaoran quieted down considerably and didn't dare to make any excuses to see Gu Zhiyun for the time being.
I dare not make any phone calls.
Gu Zhiyun has been focusing all his energy on studying lately and has been going out much less often.
That day, Gu Zhiyun was reading and taking notes in his study when there was a sudden banging on the door.
It wasn't knocking, it was smashing hard.
Gu Zhiyun walked out of the study, and at the same time, his neighbor Cui Yanan's shouts echoed in the hallway.
"It's you again, you brat! You're addicted to kicking doors, aren't you? You're so old, and you still have no manners. Are your parents dead?"
Cui Yanan has a fiery personality and is ruthless when he curses.
Gu Zhiyun opened the door and saw Wangwang making faces at Cui Yanan.
It's been more than two years since I last saw Wangwang, and he's grown quite a bit taller.

Yang Xuechang was not particularly welcoming of Want Want.
Just now, Wangwang snatched Tiantian's pencil case. When Tiantian refused to give it back, he got angry and smashed the pencil case, scattering pencils and erasers all over the floor.
Under his stern reprimand, Wangwang reluctantly picked it up.
It was clearly Wangwang's fault, and the punishment was appropriate, but Yang's mother was unhappy for a long time and is still sitting on the sofa nagging.
Before anyone could see, Wangwang ran out and kicked down the doors of both neighbors' homes.
Cui Yanan had a good relationship with the Yang family. Although her family was not highly educated, they knew that Yang Xuechang and Duan Meishan were intellectuals and treated the couple with great respect.
"Xiao Yang, your nephew is too naughty. You need to discipline him properly."
Wangwang shrank back and hid inside the house, but Yang Xuechang grabbed him by the collar.
"Go to the kitchen and get a rag. Wipe all the footprints you left on the door clean, then apologize to Aunt Cui and Uncle Gu."
Hearing the commotion, Yang's mother came out.

She craned her neck to look at the series of footprints on the doors of the two neighbors, then grabbed a rag with a dark expression.
"I'll wipe it, I'll wipe it! What are you doing ordering around a child like that!"
Yang Xuechang stopped his mother: "Mom, Wangwang is already eight years old. He can do this kind of work. He caused this trouble, so he should clean it up."
"How can you let a little kid wipe the door!" Yang's mother's face was very unpleasant. "Wangwang is still a boy, he's young, what does he know about causing trouble!"
Upon hearing this, Cui Yanan retorted blatantly, "So that's why this child has been spoiled like this. Turns out he has a muddle-headed parent."
Yang's mother was furious and wanted to argue with Cui Yanan, but Yang Xuechang stopped her.
“Mom, Wangwang is in my house now. I am Wangwang’s uncle, and I have the right to discipline him. If you are so protective of him just because he is a boy, then please take Wangwang and move out. You can spoil him as much as you want when I can’t see you, but in my house, I will not tolerate any dissent from your son, and I will never allow him to ruin the neighborly relationship between me and Sister Cui!”
Cui Yanan clapped her hands and cheered for Yang Xuechang: "They say that family members don't enter two households, and I've seen it for myself today. Little Yang is a wise man. No wonder everyone loves Tian Tian, while everyone hates your eldest grandson!"
Yang's mother was so angry she almost tripped and fell.
Yang Xuechang stuffed the rag into Wangwang's hand.
"Go, wipe the door, and apologize!"
Seeing that even his grandmother couldn't protect him, Wangwang could only hang his head and admit defeat.
Under Yang Xuechang's supervision, Wangwang cleaned both doors and apologized.
"Wangwang, remember this: don't think that just because you're a boy you have special privileges that others can't enjoy. You have to take responsibility for the trouble you cause. You can hide behind Grandma now, but you'll grow up. When you grow up and cause trouble again, Grandma won't be able to protect you anymore! The last thing this society needs is a coward who has no responsibility!"
Yang Xuechang gave Wangwang a stern lecture.
An eight-year-old child is already sensible and can understand human speech.
"Okay, Uncle."
Yang Xuechang then let Wangwang into the house.
"Xuechang, you're exaggerating. Wangwang is just a child. What does he know about taking responsibility?"
Yang's mother was dissatisfied with Yang Xuechang's strict parenting style.

"Mom, Wangwang is not a child anymore. He is a human being and can understand human speech. If he continues to be so lawless, he will not only fail to become a successful person in the future, but may also become a scourge on society!"
"Exactly! If you don't educate your children properly when they're young, they'll grow up to be street thugs!"
Cui Yanan muttered a complaint and closed the door.
Gu Zhiyun nodded to Yang Xuechang and closed the door.
Shen Jingyan held Rui Rui, who had just woken up from her afternoon nap, and ate fruit with her.
"Brother Yun, what was all that noise outside just now?"
"Yang's nephew is here again. He's being naughty and got disciplined by Yang."
