At the Ruan residence…
When Ruan Hao came home, Ruan Xue immediately went over to take his coat and squatted down to give him his slippers.
Ruan Hao put on his slippers impatiently and kicked the woman. He was very hot-tempered and started scolding her the moment he sat down.
“Ruan Xue, you’ve done really well by giving birth to a good daughter who ruined my business. Do you know how embarrassed I felt in front of CEO Ma today?”
Ruan Xue also felt hatred in her heart.
She hated Ruan Qi for defying her and Song Zhou for being unreasonable.
If they hadn’t messed around, Ruan Qi and Ma Baomu would have gotten together and facilitated her husband’s business partnership. When they sealed the deal, she would be able stand tall in front of her man.
“Hubby, have some tea and cool down.”
“How can I cool down? I wanted to grow my business but because of your insensible daughter… Do you know how much damage this has done to the company?”
Ruan Hao was even more annoyed when he saw Ruan Xue hang her head in fear and silence.
“You won’t understand it even if I tell you. I let you stay home with the kids and see how you’ve raised your daughter? How can a university student be so dumb?”
“To think that her life will be better after she found love. She’s just daydreaming!”
“As expected, someone birthed by a stupid woman can’t be any good! I was really blind back then to marry you.”
Ruan Xue felt terrible and extremely aggrieved at his scolding.
“I’ve spent most of my time taking care of our son instead of watching over
Ruan Qi’s every move. How can you blame me?”
Ruan Qi laughed coldly. “If I don’t blame you, should I blame myself? She married a poor man behind her parents’ backs instead of getting together with CEO Ma’s son. Such foolishness!”
Ruan Xue did not dare to speak after the tongue-lashing. She just lowered her head and went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.
When her son came home from school, she rushed over to hug him.
Only by hugging her youngest son could she feel a little comfort.
But her youngest son didn’t appreciate the gesture. He pushed her away in disdain and played games on his tablet.
Ruan Xue felt even more upset when she saw that her son only had eyes for his games instead of his mother.
When it was time for dinner, her son still refused to put down his tablet after being asked multiple times. Ruan Hao became impatient and yelled, ‘You brat. Eat when it’s time to eat. Stop playing your games. If you don’t study well, what can you do with all the games you played?”
Ruan Yi was not afraid of his father at all. He retorted, “What’s the point of studying when I’ll inherit everything from you one day? Education is for the poor.”
Ruan Hao was furious when he heard that. He pointed at his son and roared, “You brat, I’m not dead yet and you are already thinking about your inheritance? Come over here and see if I’ll beat you to death!”
Ruan Yi got scared when he saw his father get the feather duster. He hid behind Ruan Xue, but still refused to put down his tablet.
“Hubby, the boy is still young. Don’t lower yourself to his level. I’ll scold him.”
“He’s almost sixteen. Is that still young?” f reewe bnovel
“Ruan Xue, you are an idiot. Ruan Yi has been taught useless by you. He only knows how to play games all day. He doesn’t study hard in school and only knows how to get into trouble.”
“Didn’t he bully a female classmate two days ago? If I didn’t pay to settle the matter, he would be in so much trouble.”
Ruan Yi shouted back at his father fearlessly, “Well, I’m your only son. You won’t leave me in trouble. If anything happens to me, you, Ruan Hao, will have no descendants!”
Ruan Hao was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood. He had worked hard for so many years just so Ruan Xue could stay home to take care of their children but Ruan Yi turned out to be a useless, spoiled brat.
Ruan Xue saw that her husband was furious and quickly pulled her son back.
“Xiaoyi, how can you say such things to your father? Quickly apologize to your father.”
“Why should I apologize? I’m just speaking the truth. The bigger Ruan Hao’s business gets, the bigger the family fortune I’ll inherit. That makes up for all the time you didn’t spend with me when I was young.”
“I will never have to worry about food or clothing. I can play games all day even if I don’t work in future and women will cozy up to me. Why are you lecturing me?”
“I’m telling you, if you hit me, I’ll sue you for child abuse.”
Ruan Hao’s heart was burning with anger. If he didn’t teach this brat a lesson today, he wouldn’t be able to sleep.
He rushed forward with the feather duster, grabbed Ruan Yi and hit him hard.
Ruan Yi did not expect his father to really cane him. He screamed as his father struck him with the feather duster and cried out for his mother to save him.
Ruan Xue’s heart ached when she saw her son getting caned. She went over to stop her husband but was pushed away by Ruan Hao.
“Ruan Xue, if you stop me today, I’ll divorce you and find another woman to educate my son!”
Ruan Xue was so frightened that she stood rooted to the spot. She watched helplessly as her son curled up on the floor and begged for mercy.
“Do you know your mistake now? Brat, let’s see if you’ll misbehave again!”
“You don’t want to study yet you want your inheritance? Let me tell you. If I beat you to death now, there’ll be plenty of women out there who’ll bear me children. I can have as many sons as I want, but I don’t want you, you b*stard!”
Ruan Hao didn’t show any mercy. Ruan Yi was really in pain. He cried and admitted his mistake.
But he also glared at his mother, Ruan Xue.
Why didn’t she stop her husband?
Everything he said was taught by her. She always told him that she would protect him for the rest of his life.
But just so Ruan Hao didn’t divorce her, she would watch her son get beaten up.
Liar!
A seed of hatred was planted in Ruan Yi’s heart.
She betrayed him today and he would make her pay!
Ruan Hao finally stopped when he heard his son’s admission of guilt. He asked, “Will you study hard from now on?”
“I will. Stop hitting me, Dad. It hurts.”
Ruan Hao’s heart ached too when he saw his son’s pained expression.
For so many years, he only had one son, Ruan Yi, and he really doted on him.
When he got into trouble, he would try his best to help him settle things and not let him suffer any grievances.
“If you know it’s painful, you’ll behave yourself. Don’t be like your mother and sister. Idiots who didn’t know better and failed to perform such a simple task.”
Ruan Yi knew that they wanted Ruan Qi to marry Ma Baomu to facilitate the business partnership between the Ma and Ruan families.
Judging from his father’s tone, Ruan Qi probably refused to play along.
He wasn’t close with Ruan Qi. She was a burden, a burden who lived under the Ruan roof but didn’t do anything for the Ruan Family. She was indeed an idiot!
“Dad, I know. I won’t.”
At this moment, Ruan Hao’s phone rang.
After he picked up the call, his face contorted like he was about to eat someone up.
Ruan Hao was so angry that he smashed his phone after he hung up.
Ruan Xue and Ruan Yi both trembled in fear and kept quiet, afraid that Ruan Hao would hit them.
“Ruan Xue, you jinx, I want to strangle you to death!”
Ruan Xue shrank back in fear. “Hubby, what, what happened?”
“You still have the cheek to ask me what happened? If it isn’t for your daughter’s doing!”
“The Ma family is upset with me now and the bank won’t lend me any money. If I don’t get a bank loan, the company may run out of cash. When the company goes bankrupt, you and I will really feel the squeeze!”
The more Ruan Hao thought about it, the angrier he became. He hated himself for not having a biological daughter. His own daughter would definitely listen to him and help the company by agreeing to a business marriage.
What did Ruan Xue know about these things? She was just an uncouth woman who wanted to live a good life with her pretty face.
“Then, what will you do now?”
“What will I do? Of course, it’s to force your daughter to apologize to the Ma family and hope for their forgiveness. Otherwise, Ruan Xue, I will divorce you and kick you out without a dime so you can go back to the countryside and live with your dirt poor ex-husband!”
Ruan Xue’s face turned pale.
When Ruan Yi heard that his father’s company may go bankrupt, he stood up in shock. “Dad, if our family goes bankrupt, won’t we lose everything?”
Ruan Hao snorted. “Not only will we lose everything, but we might also be burdened with huge debts. Don’t think that it’s easy for your father to start a business. It takes a lot of money to run the business!”
Ruan Yi panicked.
If his family ran out of money, he wouldn’t have the money to top up his games in the future. He’d be laughed at by his brothers for not having good avatar skins and equipment!
No, they absolutely could not go bankrupt!
He glared at his mother, Ruan Xue, and shouted angrily, “Hurry up and tell your daughter to apologize to the Ma family, Mom!”
Ruan Xue also quickly made a call. If their family went bankrupt, her future would be bleak.
The call went through, and she immediately roared, “Ruan Qi, do you know how badly you’ve screwed up? Because you married a piece of trash, our family is going to go bankrupt!”
“If you know what’s good for you, hurry up and apologize to Ma Baomu. Otherwise, I’ll sever our mother and daughter relationship!”
“Sever our mother and daughter relationship? Excellent!”
