Chapter 146: Your Father Really Deserves It

Gu Qingluan blew out a breath onto her clenched fist, feeling a surge of frustration dissipate. She had harbored a dislike for him for a long time, and finally having the opportunity to give him a beating brought her a sense of relief.
She glanced sideways at him.
She saw a swollen red handprint on his left cheek, a bruised eye, and his already unattractive face looked even worse. With this appearance, where did he get his confidence?
“Beautiful Sister!”
Feng Yuanxi tugged at her sleeve.
Gu Qingluan lowered her head to look at him.
“Can you please stop hitting my father?”
He had never seen his father being hit like this before.
Gu Qingluan’s eyes showed apology. “I’m sorry, Little Yuanxi. I didn’t want to resort to violence, but your father really deserved it.”
Feng Yuanxi fell silent.
Indeed, his father was infuriating, and he shouldn’t have tried to stop Beautiful Sister.
But, after all, he was his father…
Feng Yuanxi lowered his head, feeling at a loss.
Gu Qingluan softened in her heart and loosened her grip. “Alright, alright, I won’t hit him anymore.”
She hadn’t planned on hitting him again anyway.
After all, the bastard was Yuanxi’s father, and he even saved her life. She didn’t intend to kill him.
Teaching him a lesson and venting her pent-up anger proved to be sufficient
If it escalated to the point of a life-and-dcath struggle, they would truly become enemies.
“Beautiful Sister, thank you! You are truly kind-hearted and beautiful!” Feng Yuanxi expressed his gratitude.
Beautiful Sister was really amazing. Even though his father treated her so poorly, she could still forgive him!
“Feng Yuanxi!” Feng Tianlan looked at his son in disbelief. “You still think she’s good after all this?”
Wasn’t he aware that this woman had poisoned him and struck him in the face?
“Dad, Beautiful Sister is kind-hearted. She won’t hold your indecent behavior against you. As a grown man, you shouldn’t keep pestering her.” Feng Yuanxi looked at him helplessly, his gaze as if he were looking at an unreasonable person.
Feng Tianlan’s chest heaved with anger.
His son was more of a nuisance than a help. Was he born to infuriate him?
Seeing Feng Tianlan furious, Gu Qingluan couldn’t help but chuckle.
“It’s good that Little Yuanxi understands.”
She patted the little guy’s head and glanced at Feng Tianlan. “You acted indecently towards me, and I hit you. That should settle the score. From now on, let’s not cross paths again! As for Yuanxi… Whether you like it or not, since I have met him and he calls me Beautiful Sister, I have to say a few words on his behalf.”
Feng Yuanxi nervously watched her.
What would Beautiful Sister say?
Feng Tianlan’s face remained cold, his lips pressed into a hard line.
“I fail to comprehend why you harbor such intense animosity towards women. Regardless of your own experiences, you shouldn’t project your resentment onto Yuanxi. He will have his own life in the future, and as a father, your role should be to guide him rather than instill biased beliefs in him. By isolating him from interactions with women, have you considered the potential consequences of his future? He may adopt your disdain for women, or he might swing to the other extreme, succumbing to the allure of women. Neither outcome aligns with what I believe you would wish to witness.”
Feng Tianlan remained silent, his eyelashes trembling slightly. It was evident that he had taken Gu Qingluan’s words to heart.
“In this world, absolutes of good and evil do not exist. I confess that I am not a virtuous person. When it comes to dealing with the Gu family, I can be merciless, resorting to beatings and killings without hesitation. However, when it concerns my son, I am capable of anything for his sake.”
Gu Qingluan looked deeply into his eyes. “I am aware of my own flaws, just as the world itself is imperfect. The same can be said for you. Your personal biases are your own concern, and it is not my place to pass judgment. However, ever since I met Yuanxi and he started calling me Beautiful Sister, I have developed a strong desire to prevent him from becoming like you.”
Jing Feng, who had always been stoic and expressionless, found himself tempted to applaud as he listened to her words.
His master was perfect in every way, except for his extreme bias against women.
Because he detested women, he didn’t allow any woman to approach the young master. It was indeed too extreme.
However, being his subordinate, he had no authority to intervene.
Despite recognizing the impropriety of his master’s actions, he was powerless to persuade him otherwise.
After Gu Qingluan finished speaking, there was a long silence in the room.
Suddenly, Feng Tianlan said, “You’ve said so much, but it doesn’t change the fact that you’re cunning.”
Gu Qingluan chuckled softly. “What’s wrong with being cunning? Do you prefer foolish and honest people?”
Her remarks left Feng Tianlan unable to retort..
