Jiang Yi was beaten, and He Gu ended up suffering along with her.
In Jiang Yi's room, He Gu was using a cotton swab to clean and disinfect the bruises on the back of Jiang Yi's hand.
"Are you stupid? If he hits you, can't you run? What happened to the cleverness you had as a child? How did you get dumber as you got older?"
Jiang Yi didn't plan to dodge in the first place; she knew her grandfather was really angry today.
It was she who had caused chaos at home, so it was right for her to bear this beating.
Auntie Cui ultimately didn't leave; standing in the kitchen, she secretly wiped away tears for half the day before she tied on her apron to start cooking.
"Is there really no way to turn this situation around?"
What He Gu referred to was the matter of Jiang Yi returning to the UK to continue her education.
Jiang Yi shook her head.
