Chapter 128: Come at Me

Ji Churan did not say a word.

After being seen by Jiang Yu, witnessing her twisted family, Ji Churan felt extremely ashamed.

Jiang Yu stood in front of Ji Churan.

She was concerned that the other party was pregnant, so she suppressed her anger and said, “Despite being a woman, you became an accomplice to a man’s domestic violence. Don’t you feel ashamed when your daughter asks you for help?”

“I’ll say it again. This is a family matter. You have no right to tell us what to do!”

Tong Manyun held her stomach and said, “Ran Ran, how did you make such friends? Why did you bring such a person home? You’re getting more and more disobedient as you get older. Are you deliberately trying to anger us?”

“What’s the benefit of offending your father? We, mother and daughter, as well as your unborn brother in my stomach, will have to rely on your father to support us in the future. You even made your father angry. You’re deliberately making it difficult for your brother and me to live on, aren’t you?”

Ji Churan opened her mouth.

She wanted to say the phrase “I can earn money to support you and baby brother” that she has said many times, but she couldn’t say it because it would be useless. Tong Manyun would not listen.

She had a deep-rooted idea that men were strong and women were weak. She felt that women relied on men to survive. She did not believe that she herself had any ability. If she stepped into society, she would be eaten clean by this complicated society, not even bones would be left behind.

At that time, Tong Manyun had just graduated and joined the workforce. She was just a lowly employee. Ji Guomin was already a supervisor.

Tong Manyun was young and beautiful, many male employees in the company chased her. She did not bother them, she rejected all her male colleagues and was labeled a snob.

It was Ji Guomin who investigated the truth of the matter and had restored Tong Manyun’s good name. Tong Manyun fell in love with him because of that and the two of them got together.

Later, Tong Manyun got knocked up by Ji Guomin’s flowery words. The two of them got married and Ji Guomin said that he would take care of her. Tong Manyun simply quit her job and stayed home to become a housewife.

The two of them were blissful together, but when Tong Manyun gave birth to a daughter, Ji Guomin’s attitude changed.

He said more than once, “If I had known that Ji Churan was a daughter, I wouldn’t have had her in the first place.” Tong Manyun didn’t feel good about this at first, but as time went on, she became numb and instead focused on giving birth to a boy to live up to Ji Guomin’s expectations.

However, every time Tong Manyun got pregnant, Ji Guomin insisted on taking her to test the gender of the child. Tong Manyun was extremely unlucky. Every time she got pregnant, it would always be a girl, and she would listen to Ji Guomin’s words and abort the fetus.

Due to having done this over and over, her body was weak and she relied on medicine to boost her strength. However, she still desperately wanted to give birth to a boy.

This time, she was finally pregnant again. The test had also said that the gender of the fetus was a boy. Tong Manyun treasured this son very much. She was afraid that something would happen to him, so every few days, she would go out to pay her respects and pray to the gods that she would have a smooth pregnancy.

In the past, when Tong Manyun was not pregnant, Ji Guomin would always beat up the mother and daughter whenever he was drunk or in a bad mood.

Now that Tong Manyun was pregnant with a son, Ji Guomin would not make a move against her. All the firepower was focused on Ji Churan now. Tong Manyun had once wanted to leave with Ji Churan but now she did not want to anymore.

She only wanted this family to be harmonious and beautiful. After all, she was finally pregnant with a son. Her good days were finally coming.

“Dad!”

Jiang Yu whipped the belt across the ground, making a crisp sound.

She raised her chin and said, “I was the one who hit you. Come at me. Don’t just point your finger at me and run your mouth. You’re so noisy.”
