CHAPTER 581: CHAPTER 583: TURNING HOSTILE

"It’s not much, I’m not drunk yet, I can still drink." Gu Junhe was confused, still mumbling that he could drink.

Ji Shuyuan: "..."

Those who are drunk usually insist that they are not drunk. He helped Gu Junhe up and said, "Where is your home? Let me take you home first."

"No, not going home." Gu Junhe shook his head and, using Ji Shuyuan’s support to stand up, pulled him and walked, saying, "Let’s go drink, go drink."

"Let’s go home and drink."

Ji Shuyuan watched him wobble and almost fall, quickly saying, "There’s also alcohol at your house, I want to go to your house to drink."

"That’s fine." Gu Junhe was concerned about appearances, hearing Ji Shuyuan’s words, he immediately grinned and said, "My home has plenty of good alcohol, let’s go, I’ll take you to drink."

Gu Junhe, reeking of alcohol, talked about the fine drinks at his home, appearing eager to entertain well.

Ji Shuyuan got the directions, took Gu Junhe on a tricycle, and arrived at the entrance of Gu Junhe’s two-story house. Ji Shuyuan had no time to admire how beautiful and luxurious the house was, as he struggled to help Gu Junhe get home.

"Knock, knock, knock." Ji Shuyuan knocked on the door, seeing the light inside, he figured there must be someone home.

"Did you bring the keys?" Ji Shuyuan asked.

Gu Junhe patted his pockets, searching for the keys. Before he found them, the door opened.

Zou Yaru saw the blurred, drunken Gu Junhe being helped inside, her face cold, she turned and walked into the house.

Ji Shuyuan’s ’sister-in-law’ had not yet been uttered when Zou Yaru had already walked into the house.

Gu Junhe frowned, staggering as he followed Zou Yaru and said, "Yaru, this is my lifesaver, how can you not even greet, greet him."

"You’re drunk." Zou Yaru said coldly.

Ji Shuyuan hurriedly stepped forward to prevent Gu Junhe from falling, vaguely feeling that their marital relationship wasn’t good, but as an outsider, it wasn’t his place to interfere. He awkwardly smiled and explained, "I ran into him on the road and brought him back."

"You brought him to the wrong place." Zou Yaru didn’t want to deal with Gu Junhe, turned around, and walked upstairs. Since learning the truth, the relationship between Zou Yaru and Gu Junhe had turned ice-cold, especially after Gu Junhe got drunk and hit her last time. Now when Zou Yaru looked at Gu Junhe, her expression was full of disdain.

"Ah..." Ji Shuyuan thought that it was just a couple’s quarrel, and hurriedly advised, "Sister-in-law, they say couples quarrel at the head of the bed and reconcile at the foot, whatever the issue is, you should talk it out together."

"Our marital issues are none of your business, and you wouldn’t understand." Zou Yaru said coldly, feeling a chill in her heart at Ji Shuyuan’s words, knowing some things can never be truly understood by others.

"Zou Yaru."

Although Gu Junhe was drunk, he wasn’t confused. Zou Yaru giving him no respect, and the most face-conscious Gu Junhe, fueled by alcohol, stumbled forward, grabbed Zou Yaru’s hand, and fiercely slapped her on the face.

The loud slap sound caused Zou Yaru to lose balance, and the slap threw her straight to the ground.

Ji Shuyuan’s eyes widened at the scene, completely unexpected. He had just kindly brought him home, how did it devolve into a fight between the couple?

"Sister-in-law, Gu Junhe is drunk." Ji Shuyuan didn’t dare help Zou Yaru but awkwardly made excuses for Gu Junhe at the side.
