My Hubby Can't Stop Pampering Me - Chapter 417
Chapter 417: Chapter 418 No One Else (1)
Qin Zhiyou suddenly became angry, fell to his knees in an instant, “She is my wife!”
“Do you even remember that she is your wife?” Qin Zhigu also became angry, retorting immediately, “Did you think of her as your wife when you were with other women, when those women were bullying her?”
“You don’t need to meddle in our affairs! You have no right to lecture me, you were the one who betrayed her when she was most in need and helpless. What gives you the right to defend her?”
“Enough!” The old patriarch of the Qin Family got a headache, he shouted loudly, “One of you lusts after his sister-in-law, and the other messes around with women. Do you think it’s something to be proud of? Zhigu!”
He first called out to Qin Zhigu, who bowed his head obediently and answered, “Grandfather.”
“Matters of the heart always require mutual consent. Since you gave her up all those years ago and since Lu Weixi is now your sister-in-law, no matter how much you wish otherwise, you should not raise the issue again. Do you understand?”
Qin Zhigu disagreed, “If she is mistreated in the future, I won’t stand by. Her father is like that, her mother is bedridden from illness, she has no support; I will be her support.”
“You support my ass!” Just as Qin Zhiyou was about to stand up and hit him, he was knocked down again by the old patriarch’s kick, “And you, have you forgotten how your father died?”
This statement was much more serious than the previous ones. Qin Zhiyou immediately stopped all resistance and knelt down in silence.
“I’ll make myself clear, as long as I’m alive, you may argue and fight in private, but you must not let it show in public, nor are you allowed to harm Hanhai’s benefits. Otherwise, even if I donate all of our family’s wealth, I won’t leave a single cent to you,” the old Qin patriarch looked at his two grandsons. One was cynical but shrewd and bold; and the other one was conservative but talented. If these two could cooperate, the Qin Family would stand tall against any storm.
Such a pity.
The old Qin patriarch sighed and after a while said, “Zhigu, you can stand up now.”
As soon as his words fell, the one who stood up was Qin Zhiyou. The old Qin patriarch was so enraged that he kicked him again, “You kneel down and kneel for an hour longer!”
Zhiyou was not happy, “Why should I?”
“Why? Because you’re the older brother, because you were the first to raise your hand, because all of this started with you, and you dare to ask why!”
Unable to win against him, Qin Zhiyou could only submit reluctantly. Qin Zhigu on the other hand, didn’t move an inch, “Grandfather.”
The old Qin patriarch shook his head, “Go back.”
Although Qin Zhigu still had doubts, he certainly wasn’t a masochist. Once he was told he could go back and rest, he began to get up. But he had been kneeling for too long and his legs were numb, so he almost fell back down when he was getting up. In the end, he leaned on a chair to support himself, hobbling back to his room.
Turning his head, the old Qin patriarch looked at his eldest grandson, “You better kneel properly. If you don’t, it won’t be for just an hour, you’ll kneel here all night!”
Strangely enough, Qin Zhiyou, who was grumbling and kneeling crookedly just now, suddenly became extremely sharp and straight without Qin Zhigu by his side. He didn’t even argue anymore. The old Qin patriarch knew that this eldest grandson might seem frivolous, but he was actually the most competitive, ambitious and capable. Compared to the overly honest Qin Zhigu, he indeed had more potential to lead Hanhai. It’s just his temper…
In the end, Qin Zhiyou ended up kneeling for an extra hour. He was afraid of waking up Lu Weixi so he went to the study to shower and change his clothes first.
By the time he returned to the bedroom, it was already two in the morning..
