C13 Is It a Man

The Jadewater Orchid Court was one of the two villas of the Golden Orchid, and without a certain status, it wouldn't be able to afford to live in it.

When she was young, she was also a member of this place.

Looking at the still verdant garden, Chu Huaiyu pursed her lips. Her footsteps were heavier than lead.

"Don't worry, isn't it just a meal? Could it be that it is enough to kill us?"

Xiao Chen patted the back of her hand and comforted her with a smile.

Chu Huaiyu, on the other hand, slapped her palm and glared at him. She did not say anything, but the villa was already close.

A middle-aged woman stood at the door of the courtyard and kept looking around on the road.

Seeing the two figures walking over, the woman grinned and hurried over to greet them.

"Yu, you, you are here?"

Anxiety, complicated feelings, and shame filled her eyes. Her raised palm stopped in the air and did not dare to move forward.

Yes, this woman was Chu Huaiyu's mother - Lau Ruman.

Compared to Liu Hongmei, she did not use that much powder. She tried her best to squeeze out a smile but could not hide the traces of time.

Looking at the wrinkles on her face and the white hair on her temples, in an instant, Chu Huaiyu's nose felt a little sour.

She hurriedly turned her face away and subtly brushed the corners of her eyes. Chu Huaiyu did not let her see the crystal clear line of her eyes.

"I am still in a hurry. If you have anything to say, just say it!" With her arms behind her back, Chu Huaiyu tried not to look at her mother's face and said coldly.

Hearing this, Lau Ruman fiercely trembled. A hint of bitterness flashed past but did not reveal it.

"I did not go home for a long time. I made some of your favorite signature dishes and your father is still waiting for you."

Chu Huaiyu's eyes sank when she heard him. Her mind thought of that heartless man and she could not help but clench her fist tightly.

Her expectant gaze landed on Chu Huaiyu's face. After waiting for a long time, Chu Huaiyu finally nodded her head.

It was only at this moment that Lau Ruman's hanging heart finally relaxed a little.

Walking beside her, a pair of eyes never left her daughter's face from beginning to end.

"It has been ten years. You have finally grown up in peace. You have become beautiful and promising."

Other than feeling emotional, there was also that unchanging gratification. Lau Ruman quietly said in her heart.

Noticing her fixed gaze, Xiao Chen rubbed his nose from the forbidden area. It was as if he was redundant here.

With a crack, the door opened. The magnificent hall had changed greatly compared to ten years ago.

A middle-aged man sat at the dining table, looking coldly at the silhouette of the person who had entered. He was also Chu Huaiyu's father, Chu Yunxiang.

"Yu is here." Lau Ruman carefully said and called Chu Huaiyu to the table.

Unfortunately, before his butt could warm up, there was suddenly a clang. Chu Yunxiang threw the chopsticks in his hand onto the table.

"How old are you? You still don't have any sense of time! Also, who asked you to bring these people here? Don't dirty my door!" Chu Yunxiang glared at Xiao Chen with a pair of bull's eyes. He was not polite at all when he spoke.

"It seems that you didn't invite me here today to eat. You want to fight with me, right?"

Chu Huaiyu stared at her father and did not move her chopsticks. Her face was cold but she did not avoid her father's fierce gaze.

"It was not easy for Yu to come once. Can't you..." Lau Ruman could not listen and softly persuaded.

However, before she could finish her sentence, she was interrupted by Chu Yunxiang's glare.

Shrinking and raging, Lau Ruman looked at Chu Huaiyu with a helpless but sorrowful look as if she was begging her to keep her temper in check.

"Alright, it seems that you have not only grown up, your wings have also hardened, right? Don't think that just because you have become the acting heir now, you will be able to do it. Not to mention that you are just an 'acting heir', the old man is really senile and foolish enough to give you the position of the successor. I'm still your father!"

"I don't remember having a father. After so many years, I'm still alive and well by myself!"

"Then the blood that flows in your body is also my, Chu Yunxiang's, blood!"

"If you like it, we will go to the hospital tomorrow. I can give you back all the blood I have left!"

The father and daughter were competing against each other. Neither of them would give in to the other. Only Lau Ruman's face was ashen, and she bitterly wiped away her tears.

Noticing her mother's expression, Chu Huaiyu restrained the anger in her heart, took a deep breath, and stood up with a whoosh.

"Looks like I should not have come in from the beginning. I'm leaving!" Without any hesitation, Chu Huaiyu turned around.

But before she could take two steps, she suddenly heard the crisp sound of a slap behind her.

Lau Ruman covered her face and noticed her gaze. She hurriedly turned her face away and did not look at her daughter's expression for the first time.

"Chu Yunxiang, are you still a man? Other than hitting women, what else do you have?"

"If it wasn't for me, I wouldn't have such an unworthy person like you!"

Chu Yunxiang raised his eyebrows and said coldly. As he spoke, he stretched out a hand and pointed in Lau Ruman's direction. He shouted, "And you!"

"If it wasn't for the fact that you can't give birth to a son, I wouldn't have suffered for decades. Why do I have to look at that bastard Chu Yuntao's face all the time? Why would I still be disobeyed by this rebellious girl? "

After saying that, Chu Yunxiang raised his palm again.

But this time, Chu Huaiyu rushed forward and held her mother in her arms.

"Fine, you dare to glare at me. If I don't teach you a lesson today, others will really think that I relied on you, this unfilial daughter, to get the position!"

Raising his sleeves, Chu Yunxiang threw a slap at Chu Huaiyu's face.

Chu Huaiyu's eyes fiercely shrank, but she forcefully held on and did not dodge. She only roared at herself in her heart.

"Why don't you fight? It also makes me completely stop thinking about you!"

However, after waiting for a long time, the palm didn't fall down. It quietly opened its eyelids and saw Xiao Chen's towering figure.

"For a man to do this, I really feel ashamed for you."

"Who do you think you are!? Since when did a bastard like you behave atrociously in front of me?"

"A bastard is better than a beast. Even pigs and dogs protect their calves. You are better off nodding and bowing outside. When you return home, you only know how to use your wife and daughter to vent your anger. Think about it. Compared to pigs and dogs, what are you better at?"

"You bastard! How dare you scold me!"

"Don't misunderstand. I'm not going to use you to insult the word 'animal'. I'm simply looking down on you!"

" You're just a good-for-nothing who's living off a woman, what right do you have to look down on me? Let me tell you... "

"I don't have your blood flowing on me. Even if I'm living off a woman, Huaiyu was the one who was willing to give it to me. So what if I look down on you?"

"You, you..." Chu Yunxiang was shaking with anger. He turned to Chu Huaiyu and yelled, "Look at the man you picked!"

"Even in the face of a 'trash' like me, you only dare to go and challenge Huaiyu. Just like this, you still have the nerve to call yourself a human? Or a man? Don't you feel embarrassed at all? "
