"Shut up!" Fang Wei berated. "Hurry up and apologize to Fourth Master and Madam."

"I..." Yan Luo was at a loss.

"Don't you understand human language? I asked you to apologize!"

Fang Wei was pissed off by Yan Luo. If it wasn't for her, he wouldn't have offended Gu Shen. Fang Zhou had been wanting to cooperate with Gu Shen recently. If their relationship got ruined because of what happened today, he might never have the chance to do any business with the Gu family.

Yan Luo suddenly tightened her fists. Though angry, she had to bow down and apologize, "I was too hot-headed just now and made a mistake. We're family, so please don't take it to heart."

"When you were scolding us just now, why didn't you think of us as a family?" Yan Xi walked to Gu Shen's side and said confidently, "Also, I've already cut ties with the Yan family, so technically I am not your family."

"I...never scolded you." Yan Luo pursed her lips. "I was just concerned about you. Didn't I just give you two tickets to the auction?"

After all, Fang Wei had feelings for Yan Luo, so he spoke up for her. "Madam, there might be a misunderstanding between us. Why don't we sit down and talk about it in detail so that we can resolve this misunderstanding."

Yan Xi didn't want to see them at all. She poked Gu Shen with her finger, asking him to quickly get rid of them.

Gu Shen grabbed her hand and looked at Fang Wei and Yan Xi. His gaze was deep and it made people tremble. "I don't want to waste my time with you guys. Gu Yi, call the police."

Yan Luo and Fang Wei froze on the spot with twisted expressions.

Seeing that Gu Yi had already raised his phone, Yan Luo frantically ran over and grabbed his hand, pleading, "You can't call the police! You can't call the police. Gu Shen, I beg of you!"

Others did not know why Yan Luo reacted so strongly, but Yan Xi knew very well.

There were naturally circles among the senior officials in Yan City. Everyone knew each other. If the police found out that Yan Luo was secretly meeting with another man, her husband and father-in-law would break her legs tonight.



Chapter 69: Kowtow

"What's there to be afraid of, cousin? The chief police officer is your husband's uncle. He definitely won't detain you. Isn't it a good thing?"

Yan Xi sighed and said sincerely, "Cousin, I'm trying to help you."

Gu Shen was the only one who saw slyness in her eyes, like that of a fox's. The little fox bluffed and frightened the two of them terribly.

Yan Luo shook her head violently, unable to maintain the smile on her face. "I know you're doing this for my sake, but it's best if this matter isn't brought to the police station. Family scandals can't be made public. And I'm willing to compensate you and Gu Shen, as long as you can forgive me."

Yan Luo would avoid going to the police station at all costs.

"Why should I forgive you?"

All Yan Luo could give her now were a few houses under her name and the yacht that she had gotten from the last man.

She gritted her teeth and said, "I remember that you used to love yachts. I happen to have a yacht. I can give it to you today."

"Just a yacht? My husband can give me the most expensive yacht in the world. I don't see your sincerity at all." Before Yan Luo could speak again, she instructed Gu Yi, "Gu Yi, call the police. It's meaningless to waste time with her."

Before she could finish speaking, Yan Luo was already broken down on the floor. She ran to Yan Xi and sounded like she was crying and pleading. She was no longer arrogant like before.

"I'm begging you, Yan Xi. Can you not call the police? I promise I won't provoke you again!"

"I see." She waited until Yan Luo was extremely anxious before slowly saying, "I can forgive you, but you have to apologize to Gu Shen."

"I already apologized just now."

"But I've never heard you say sorry."

Yan Luo hesitated. She still couldn't bring herself to apologize to the cripple who she always looked down on.

Seeing that she was still hesitating, Fang Wei secretly pinched her from behind, afraid that this woman would implicate him again.

"You don't want to? Then call the police."

Yan Luo shivered. "No, no, no. I will apologize, I will."

She walked to Gu Shen and was about to speak when Yan Xi suddenly sneered. "Cousin, are you joking with me? Gu Shen is sitting there, but you're standing. Is this the sincerity of your apology?"

Yan Luo clenched her fists and suppressed the anger. She forced herself to speak to Yan Xi calmly, "Then tell me, what should I do?"

Yan Xi's lips curled. "Kneel. You just called him cripple a couple of times. Then you should kowtow a couple of times. That's what sincerity is."

Yan Luo's face darkened. "Yan Xi, don't push me!"

"It's just the beginning. What you did to me in the past, I will make you pay a bit at a time." As Yan Xi spoke, she felt a tightness on her chest. The Host's memories kept flashing across her mind, as if she was asking Yan Xi to avenge her.

So this time, she was taking revenge for Gu Shen and the Host.

"Cousin, I told you in the bathroom that I'm not very patient, so I counted to three. Either you kneel down on your own accord, or I'll get them to help you."

As soon as she finished speaking, before Yan Xi could count, Gu Yi took a step forward and kicked her knee under Yan Luo's frightened gaze.

After the scream, she was already kneeling on the ground. Her knees were painful and numb, and she could not help but curl up to relieve the pain.

"Now do it," Yan Xi commanded.

Yan Luo bit her lip and glanced at Gu Yi, who was watching her with full attention. She suppressed her pride and softly kowtowed three times before quickly getting back on her feet.

"Gu Shen, I'm sorry. It was my fault."

Her tone was flat, without any sincerity.

Yan Xi tutted. "If I scattered a handful of rice here, the sound chicken make pecking the rice would be louder than that. Didn't you just have a dinner! Go on, make it louder."

Yan Luo was about to break down. "What else do you want? Do you want me to hit my head until it bleeds?"

"Good idea." Yan Xi smiled. Looking at her, Gu Yi immediately understood.

He walked up to Yan Luo. Before she could react, he grabbed the back of her neck with one hand and smashed her to the ground.
