When Gu Hai arrived home, it was already past 10 o'clock at night. The lights inside were on, and the door was suspiciously unlocked. Gu Hai tentatively pushed the door open and saw an unexpected person on the sofa.
Gu Wei Ting's expression was austere and frigid. His entire body emanated a powerful, strong, and imposing aura. His eyes calmly followed Gu Hai's every movement, his lips pressed tightly together. It was as if he was waiting for Gu Hai to speak first.
On the other hand, Gu Hai acted like he didn't see Gu Wei Ting. He calmly put down his backpack and took off his shoes. He then walked into his room to change his clothes, only to find the wardrobe empty.
"Where are my clothes?"
Gu Wei Ting's heart sank. He hasn't seen Gu Hai for almost a month. If it weren't for the phone call from the school principal, he would still be at the army base right now. He came with anger, but also with longing for his son. Before they talk about the trouble Gu Hai caused, he just wanted to hear Gu Hai call him "Dad," yet Gu Hai's first words to him were actually to ask about his things.
Not receiving any reply, Gu Hai's eyes moved away from Gu Wei Ting's face and quickly discovered the suitcase on the floor.
Gu Wei Ting didn't beat around the bush, "I already helped you pack up your things. Come home with me immediately. I won't ask about the fight anymore. Tomorrow, I'll send someone to take care of the school transferring procedures. You'll go back to the school you went to before. Jiang Yuan will also bring her son over, so you guys can go to the same school. You need to try to accept this brother of yours."
The light from outside the window slowly spread over Gu Hai's face.
"Don't count on me ever going back, it's impossible!"
Gu Hai went to drag the suitcase back into his room, but it was firmly pressed down by Gu Wei Ting's foot, and the suitcase didn't move at all.
"You are going home today, whether you want to or not. This is an order."
Gu Hai's eyes clearly expressed his hatred, "You are not my commander, you can't order me! Even if you kill me right now, I would still not choose to live together with that family. Brother? What fucking brother? I'll just say this, wherever that family is, don't expect me to take even one step inside."
Gu Wei Ting abruptly stood up and gripped Gu Hai's throat, strangling him. Then he dragged him to the window. They are on the eighth floor. If Gu Wei Ting exerts the tiniest bit of strength, Gu Hai would be sent flying outside the window.
"Fine, so you rather die than go back? Then, I'll just kill you today. Don't make a sound if you're so brave. I'll just pretend I don't have a son like you."
Gu Hai clenched his jaw. His body was tense and rigid, and his dark eyes seemed to be one with the night sky.
Both sides refused to back down. Then Gu Wei Ting extended his hand, and Gu Hai's body went outside right with it. When Gu Wei Ting saw that Gu Hai wasn't struggling, he retracted his hand and brought Gu Hai back inside. After all this in-and-out, nothing really happened to Gu Hai, but Gu Wei Ting started sweating all over.
"Are you satisfied now?" Gu Hai looked back at Gu Wei Ting, "Please go back! I need to shower and then go to sleep. I still have school tomorrow."
"You think without me providing you with everything, you'll still be able to live so comfortably here? That you would still be able to rent an apartment that's bigger than 100 square meters? I'm telling you, if I cut off your allowance, in less than a month, you would be licking my feet and begging me to take you back!"
"If that would achieve your purpose, then why are you here wasting your time and effort? Just cut off my allowance, do it right now. Go home and wait! See within a month, if I will actually be licking your feet and begging to enter your house!"
"You think I wouldn't dare?"
"I never believed there is anything you wouldn't dare to do."
Gu Wei Ting clenched his fists, his entire body radiating a violent and tyrannical aura. If this happened when he was younger, he would have long put a bullet in his unfilial son's head. But he's older now and also lost a wife. At 40 years old, he finally started to understand the meaning of family, but this family has already fallen apart.
"I don't have a son like you."
After he spits out those words, Gu Wei Ting left with a dark look on his face.
Gu Hai sat on the sofa in a daze for a long while. After taking a few soft breaths, he realized that he isn't that upset. In the past, when he fought with Gu Wei Ting, he would appear joyous on the outside, but will actually be sullen on the inside for quite some time. But this time, after the fight, he is happy on the outside and the inside. His heart actually feels a faint sense of joy.
No allowance?
So that means, in the future, he is also a poor person?
Which means that the barrier between him and Bai Luo Yin is torn down once again?
Is there anything that can make him more excited than this?
Gu Hai acted like he was possessed. He packed up all the things he can take with him and then called the landlord in the middle of the night, telling him that he is moving out immediately. Gu Hai plans to rent a one-story house near Bai Luo Yin's house, the more worn down the better.
He even decided to sell all of the valuable things he owns, especially his globally limited edition phone. Gu Hai wants to change it for a second-hand old phone. He also wants to switch out the luxury brand shoes he wears for the counterfeit shoes they sell on the side of the road. Lastly, he took the luxury watch off of his wrist. If he really needs a watch, he can always draw it on with a ball-point pen...
