CHAPTER 103: CHAPTER 103 THE JEALOUSY OF WOMEN

An Lingling trembled with anger, "Where did this woman come from, who are you calling a bitch? Do you believe me if I said I could crush you with the money in my house?"

Gong Xiaoyu got addicted to arguing, "If you have so much money, think about compensating the government first, then hire a good lawyer for your dad and see if he can get a few years off his sentence?"

An Zhikun, the eldest in the family, finally perceived the severity of the situation and asked Wu Fen, "What exactly happened?"

Wu Fen cried painfully, "Today, leaders from the city came for an inspection. All our farms, homestays, and restaurants are to cease operations, and we need to pay for water quality remediation. Your dad might even end up in jail..."

An Zhikun and An Zhicheng stood there, dumbfounded.

They had just borrowed money to invest in a new farm. Now, with all the funds put in, a shutdown order at this time meant all the money would be wasted, right?

It was an enormous sum that even selling land and houses wouldn’t cover!

An Lingling couldn’t believe it, "Didn’t uncle give us a heads-up?"

Wu Fen cried even harder, "Your uncle probably can’t even save himself. It’s all because of that bitch An Junxi!"

An Zhicheng still had some rationality and asked, "How could Jun Xi have such power?"

"Her... her boyfriend..." Wu Fen couldn’t continue.

An Lingling asked anxiously, "Who’s her boyfriend?" She looked at An Junxi with disdain, thinking what good catch could she possibly have?

Probably just a bald, lecherous old man!

Since childhood, An Junxi and An Lingling never got along. She had already said all she needed to Wu Fen, and now she didn’t want to say anything more to An Lingling.

Seeing Gu Yikun and the others coming out, she walked up to him and asked, "All done talking?"

"Yes, we can finish things in the next two days, and then the day after tomorrow, we can go back to Yan City."

"Okay."

An Junxi and Gu Yikun together sent a few secretaries and directors off. They didn’t dare let President Gu see them off, saying many polite words before getting in the car.

An Junxi watched the cars leave and said, "Let’s go inside." She hadn’t had a good look at home yet.

"Alright." Gu Yikun held her hand and went inside.

As soon as Gu Yikun came out, An Lingling’s eyes stuck to him. She rubbed her eyes, thinking she was seeing things. Wasn’t this person President Gu of the Gu Family?

She did watch the news, so she knew this was the heir to the Gu Family!

An Lingling walked up, "Jun Xi, is this your boyfriend?" She couldn’t believe it and felt a surge of jealousy. How could An Junxi be so lucky to snag President Gu?

President Gu could have any woman he wanted, why would he choose An Junxi? It must be just a fling!

Thinking this made An Lingling feel a bit better.

An Junxi didn’t want to bother with her and said briefly to Gu Yikun, "She’s my cousin."

An Lingling, full of charm, flipped her long hair to her back and gently extended her hand to Gu Yikun, "I didn’t expect to see Mr. Gu here, what an honor."

Gu Yikun didn’t extend his hand. He coldly said, "I just put your dad in jail, and you feel honored?"

An Lingling’s hand froze in mid-air.

An Junxi turned her head, hiding behind Gu Yikun and giggled.

Gu Yikun added, "I advise you all to stay away from my girlfriend’s family. Otherwise, I have plenty of ways to teach you a lesson."

An Lingling’s mouth twitched, "Mr. Gu, our families share the same grandfather, we are relatives. Any misunderstandings can be cleared up, no need for..."

Gu Yikun couldn’t be bothered to look at her again, leading An Junxi inside.

Gong Xiaoyu and Yu Zheng followed behind. As Gong Xiaoyu passed An Lingling, she couldn’t resist rubbing it in, "A mountain chicken thinking it could turn into a phoenix, it’s hilarious."

An Lingling raised her hand in anger, but Gong Xiaoyu immediately jumped behind Yu Zheng, clutching his clothes, "Quick, close the door, close the door."

Yu Zheng felt helpless. Just now, she was so smug, but at the sight of conflict, she became an instant coward.

He closed the courtyard gate, shutting out the shrew’s cursing.

An Junxi saw the house was in chaos, her heart ached, "I really don’t know how much my parents suffered while I was away."

She walked into her room, thankfully it was still tidy.

Gu Yikun carefully examined every corner. So this was where his wife grew up. He said, "When we have time, I’ll take you to my teacher’s farm. It’s similar to your home here. I think you’ll like it."

An Junxi was looking for something on the bookshelf. She asked, "Is it Mr. Yu’s farm? Does that mean, is Yu Zheng your teacher’s son?"

Gu Yikun pinched her cheek, "Mrs. Gu, why are you so interested in my assistant?"

An Junxi was speechless, "I was just asking."

"You guessed right."

"Yu Zheng’s family has a farm too, nice, nice. Does he have a girlfriend?"

Gu Yikun narrowed his eyes dangerously, "An Junxi, if you mention another man again, I’ll make sure you can’t get out of bed tomorrow!"

An Junxi’s face turned bright red. She gave Gu Yikun a shove, "They’re still outside, don’t say it so loudly!"

Her shy look made Gu Yikun’s heart flutter. He couldn’t help but hold her, "Honey, why don’t we try it in your room?"

An Junxi playfully hit his chest, "If you say it again, I won’t speak to you!"

In front of others, Gu Yikun always appeared cold and abstinent. Only she knew that this wasn’t the case at all!

But only she got to see this side of him, and it made her feel sweet and happy.

An Junxi couldn’t help but smile.

Gu Yikun lowered his head, "Honey, did I tell you? You were really great last night. I was very satisfied, and tonight your husband will teach you some new moves."

An Junxi’s face turned so red you could fry an egg on it. She turned away, "I think you should sleep in the corridor tonight!"

Gu Yikun saw that his wife was really upset, so he quickly coaxed, "Okay, I won’t say it anymore."

An Junxi couldn’t break free from his embrace, so she let him hold her.

After a while, she found her photo albums, "Great, I want to take all these with me." She thought she wouldn’t come back often in the future.

This thought made An Junxi feel a bit melancholic.

Gu Yikun sensed her mood and said, "Whenever you want to come back, I can come with you."

An Junxi nodded in his arms, "Yikun, thank you."

Gu Yikun habitually rubbed her head a few times.

An Junxi gathered some items with special memories for her, which fit into a small box. She looked around the house for a long time and then said to Gu Yikun, "Let’s go."

On the way back to the hotel, An Junxi asked Gu Yikun, "How many years will my uncle be sentenced?"

Gu Yikun said, "Intentional injury, illegal operation, tax evasion, bribing officials... he should be able to spend his old age in prison."

A lifetime would pass just like that.

An Junxi quickly stopped thinking about it. He made his own mistakes, and he should bear the corresponding consequences. No one else could be blamed.

Since Gu Yikun’s company still had matters to deal with and her parents were recovering quickly, An Junxi decided to return to Yan City with Gu Yikun first. She said to her parents, "Mom and Dad, after you’re discharged, we’ll bring you to Yan City."

Her parents told her not to worry and to quickly go back to handle work, which was more important.

The next day, they set off for Yan City. Before they arrived, Liang Huiyun called An Junxi, "All the elders in the family have returned from abroad. Do you remember what I reminded you about?"

An Junxi started to get nervous and said reluctantly, "Yes, mother, don’t worry."
