At the same time, the summer night in Yunmo Village was quiet and peaceful.
Gu Bin and Chen Shuxuan put on their shoes and coats with grim faces.
After trying to contact Gu Jianian all night without success, they finally confirmed that their daughter had blocked all their contact information and had not returned home yet.
Chen Shuxuan found the phone number of the writer's studio on the Internet, but no one answered when she called.
The couple discussed for a while, took their cell phones and ID cards, and prepared to go to Zhushan to arrest the man.
Just as he stood up, Meng Yiqing walked out of the room with a cane, his face as gloomy as water.
"Where are you going so late at night?"
Chen Shuxuan was in a hurry and had no time to deal with the old lady, and she didn't even notice that there was something wrong with her tone.
He just said a few perfunctorily: "Go to Zhushan and find Gu Jianian. Your granddaughter has grown strong now and dared to elope like others. I don't know what happened in the past two years. She has become more and more worrying."
"What are you going to do after you find her?"
Chen Shuxuan frowned, not knowing what the old lady was nagging about. She was in a hurry to catch the bus.
She first said to her husband, "First check if there are any tickets for the bus to Zhushan tonight, and then ask my second brother if he can drive us to town."
Then he turned around and responded: "Then you must bring it back first, and then-"
"What?"
But the old lady interrupted her, walked up to her step by step with her crutches, and stood in front of the door quietly.
"Another slap?"
Chen Shuxuan was a little speechless: "Mom, you just spoil her too much. Look at what she has become now. She used to smoke and skip classes when she was in Lin High School. Later, she repeated a grade and didn't go home for a whole year. She also had a premature love affair with a crappy writer who was several years older than her. Now she ran to find him as soon as the scores came out, and she even ignored the invitation from Beilin University."
"She also said she won't go to Beilin University. Do you think she's been brainwashed? Such a good opportunity. It's hard to find a job after graduating from the Chinese Department. If she has the name of Beilin University, it will be easier to settle down in Beilin—"
Chen Shuxuan didn't have time to finish her words.
There was a sudden sharp pain behind the knee.
She staggered a few steps instinctively and almost fell to her knees.
Then he turned around and looked at the old lady in disbelief: "Mom, are you crazy?"
But the old lady didn't laugh, nor did she go crazy. Instead, with trembling hands, she raised her crutch again and hit the girl's calf hard at the right spot.
Chen Shuxuan couldn't bear the force and screamed in pain. Finally, she couldn't stand and knelt on the ground.
The old lady, who had been gentle and docile all her life, hit her smart and strong-willed daughter with her two crutches for the first time.
She released her strength and couldn't help but gasp for breath several times. Her hand holding the crutch was shaking and her eyes were red.
But there was still a sneer on his face.
"You want to teach your daughter a lesson, right? You also want to tear off her entire face to feed your vanity?"
Chen Shuxuan's face turned pale and blue, she couldn't believe that the old lady could get so angry. She rubbed her knees and turned her head to find her husband also standing there in shock.
It took Gu Bin a long time to react. He quickly walked over and grabbed the old lady: "Mom, what are you doing?"
