"Xiao Huo, Hanhan, come out for a moment."
Gu Huaiming knocked on the door, and when Lin Han opened it, she saw Qin Shuman sitting on the sofa crying.
"Aunt Qin, what's wrong?"
Qin Shuman's pent-up grievances from the entire day burst forth the moment she saw Gu Huaiming.
She told Gu Huaiming everything that had happened that day, including Erni's tantrum on the department store floor.
Gu Huaiming grew up in a compound and, to be honest, had never encountered such an unreasonable and shrewish woman.
Seeing his wife crying so pitifully, he became increasingly disappointed in Fang Zhiwu's family.
"Everyone is here. Erni, apologize to your mother and Hanhan in front of everyone."
Erni instantly lost her temper.
"Why should I apologize to them? I didn't do anything wrong."
Erni, with a self-righteous air, pulled Fang Zhiwu to stand in front of her.
“Zhiwu is your own son. How could you not think of your own son and side with outsiders?”
You two are so biased! Zhiwu has suffered so much over the past twenty years, you parents should make it up to him.
"I'm Zhiwu's wife. Hutou and I came to this family to enjoy life, so don't even think about bullying me."
Gu Huaiming was too lazy to argue with Erni, so he turned to look at Fang Zhiwu.
"Zhiwu, what are your thoughts on this? Tell me your opinion: should your wife apologize to your mother and Hanhan?"
Fang Zhiwu was suddenly called out by name. He clenched his fingers nervously and stammered for a long time without being able to utter a single word.
Gu Huaiming glanced at him, lowered his head, and sighed.
How could his son be like this?
Erni pinched Fang Zhiwu, "Why don't you say something? Your wife is being bullied to death, and you just stand here like a block of wood. Why don't you stand up for me?"
I haven't enjoyed a single day of happiness since I married you. Tell me, what good are you?
Fang Zhiwu looked up guiltily at Gu Huaiming and Qin Shuman, then suddenly straightened up after being slapped on the back by Erni.
"Erni didn't do anything wrong, so why don't we just let the apology go? We're all family, why make such a fuss?"
Fang Zhiwu's words utterly disappointed Gu Huaiming and Qin Shuman. Although they hadn't spent as much time with Fang Zhiwu as Erni, they didn't expect him to be on their side.
But he couldn't even distinguish right from wrong, blindly listening to Erni, showing no sense of responsibility as a man.
Erni had a smug look on her face. She relied on the fact that Gu Huaiming and Qin Shuman owed Fang Zhiwu a debt, and believed that if she could control Fang Zhiwu, she could control the old couple.
"So what? Your son has spoken, do you still want me to apologize?"
Qin Shuman was so angry that she couldn't breathe, and Gu Huaiming patted her back to comfort her.
Suddenly a sharp voice rang out.
“You’ve taken advantage of the lack of family ties for over twenty years to bully the leader and his wife, but you can’t bully me.”
I won't interfere in your family matters, but you must apologize to Lin Han for your nonsensical remarks just now.
Huo Qizheng's eyes gleamed with a cold light, as if he could snap Erni's neck with one hand at any moment.
Erni wanted to keep jumping around, but she was frightened by Huo Qizheng's gaze.
"I didn't do it on purpose. Besides, what if she's unfaithful..."
Before she could finish speaking, Huo Qizheng kicked her in the stomach, knocking her to the ground.
