Zhu Baoguo reached out to catch the pillow. s.h.i.+ Qing jumped out of the bed and punched Zhu Baoguo in the stomach. She then pushed him at his shoulder and slammed the door on him.
s.h.i.+ Qing put her hand on her waist, looking like a big teapot. “Do you know your manners? How can you kick the door to a girl’s bedroom? You are not only foolish but an idiot. It is not that you have a low IQ. You are simply not using your brains at all.”
If Brother Zhai found out about what happened tonight, Zhu Baoguo would not be able to bear the consequences.
Furthermore, there were other people in the house apart from the Zhu family.
If this was known to others, how was Qiao Nan supposed to face others?
Public clamor could obscure the actual truth, and rumors could kill a person.
Those who spread the gossip would definitely not be telling the truth. They would not say that she was in the room. They might spread tales that Qiao Nan had a rendezvous with her high school cla.s.smate on her wedding’s eve. In that case, Qiao Nan would be unable to clear her name.
Zhu Chengqi, who heard the commotion, saw that there was a pillow on his son’s head and he was pushed out of the room by a young lady. He stopped himself from helping his son and said calmly, “Foolish.”
Zhu Chengqi directed his gaze toward w.a.n.g Yang.
w.a.n.g Yang stiffened. He was reminded that the w.a.n.g family had been going downhill recently. He took a deep breath and smiled at Zhu Chengqi. He then went back to his room and shut the door.
w.a.n.g Yang eased slightly after escaping from Zhu Chengqi’s piercing gaze.
w.a.n.g Yang knew very well from his uncle’s piercing gaze that if whatever happened tonight was known to other people and Qiao Nan’s reputation was ruined, the w.a.n.g family would not escape unscathed.
Zhu Chengqi did not care if w.a.n.g Yang spread the rumor or not, and neither would he investigate the matter. Nevertheless, the w.a.n.g family would have to bear all the responsibilities.
In this way, w.a.n.g Yang could not spread the rumor and make use of this gossip such that the w.a.n.g family and he could benefit from it. He had to make sure that n.o.body spoke of what happened tonight.
If someone found out about the incident, w.a.n.g Yang must shut the person up right away.
Otherwise, if Qiao Nan’s reputation was affected, it would be at the expense of w.a.n.g Yang’s prospects.
After knowing w.a.n.g Yang’s personality, even if his sister was married to the w.a.n.g family and was their daughter-in-law, Zhu Chengqi no longer treated the w.a.n.g family like how he used to in the past. He would not help his brother-in-law either.
Now that the w.a.n.g family was without Zhu Chengqi’s protection, they had a more difficult path ahead of them.
If Zhu Chengqi did anything right now, it would be aggravating their situation.
Since Zhu Chengqi knew w.a.n.g Yang’s weakness, he was able to have him under his thumb. There was no need for him to say anything. A glance from him and w.a.n.g Yang stopped thinking of ways to scheme against Qiao Nan. He pretended as if nothing happened today.
Since he had no way to defeat Zhu Chengqi, he had no other choice but to submit to him.
After giving w.a.n.g Yang a warning look, Zhu Chengqi turned to look at Zhu Baoguo. “It’s late. Why aren’t you sleeping? Since you are so energized, wake up at five in the morning to run a few more laps.”
Seeing that Zhu Baoguo was easily sent out of the room by a young lady, Zhu Chengqi was not worried that his son would not be able to find a wife and start a family. Instead, he was worried that his son would be bullied by his wife.
