Wang Meili, in a fit of rage, tried to close the door, but since it had already been slammed broken by the chubby aunt, how could it possibly close?

"This early in the morning... Young people really have no self-respect." One of the slightly older ones shook her head and walked out of the room.

Gu Qingqing had long been pulling the curious Gu Lingling along with her as they entered too.

"Hehe... having babies... a girl who can have babies..."

She was taken aback as soon as she entered and saw the scene in the room.

Gu Juan, clothes in disarray, was hiding in the corner beneath the edge of the kang, while a foolish man sat on the kang.

The boy was clearly an idiot, around seventeen or eighteen years old, grinning stupidly at Gu Juan and repeatedly calling out 'little bride'.

And as for this boy, although his lower body was under the quilt, it seemed he wasn't wearing any clothes—his back wasn't visible—but his chest bore several scratch marks.

Even though Wang Meili had wrapped Gu Juan in clothes, the marks left on her exposed neck proved that the situation had been quite brutal at the time.

"You heartless wretch," Old Mrs. Gu reacted, trying to hit the boy on the kang, but she was stopped by the woman who rushed in from behind.

"Don't hit my son."

Wang Xintao had been hiding on Old Mrs. Gu's kang since she made a noise earlier; it was prearranged with Wang Meili to stay hidden until she took care of things.

But who knew she had waited in the room for so long without Wang Meili calling her?

Listening to the chaotic sounds outside, Wang Xintao couldn't help but climb off the kang and sneak a look out, just in time to see Gu Lingling walking straight from the yard into the house.

And who was the person in that room?

Wang Xintao rarely saw Gu Juan, so naturally, she couldn't tell it was Gu Juan from the sound.

When she followed into the room, she discovered her silly son wasn't wearing clothes and was sitting on the kang, while Old Mrs. Gu seemed about to hit him.

This was unacceptable.

Even though her son was an idiot, she had never allowed anyone to touch him since he was a child.

"I'll kill this beast." Old Mrs. Gu grabbed the broom used for sweeping the kang and swung it at Lv Guoqing, who, despite being an idiot, understood to dodge when being hit.

He stood up and crawled deeper onto the kang, his bare back scratched and bloodied, looking quite frightening.

An idiot truly remains an idiot, even being scratched like this, he didn't know to scream in pain and could only say 'little bride'.

"I'll damn well fight you." Wang Xintao's eyes went red upon seeing the wounds on her son's back.

She had initially seen the scratches on his chest but hadn't expected the wounds on his back to be even worse.

"Oh, my old waist." Old Mrs. Gu was yanked by Wang Xintao and almost fell off the kang; however, her waist collided with the already peeling paint kang cabinet, causing her to cry out in pain.

"Wang Meili, you shameless wretch, how did you promise me?" Wang Xintao angrily pointed at Wang Meili on the ground and said furiously, "How did it end up like her!"

Why it turned out to be Gu Juan, even Wang Meili was puzzled.

Not only Wang Meili and Wang Xintao were puzzled, even Gu Lingling didn't know how Gu Juan ended up in her room.

But this situation was the best.

Haha, serves her right!

Who asked Wang Meili to maliciously try to harm her, now she was facing retribution!

If the occasion were not inappropriate, Gu Lingling would have loved to clap her hands and cheer.

This bizarre commotion was simply delightful.

"What happened?"

Gu Chunhai's voice came from behind.
