Zhao Gongzi said that he wants to go back home and have a chat with Master Zhao Si.
I told him to not trick me, his ‘chats’ were just him arguing with me, throwing a fit, and smashing things.
Zhao Gongzi smashed the phone on the spot. “Who the hell is tricking who here?!”
He coldly looked at me and said, “Laozi doesn’t want to see you right now, get lost.”
I couldn’t leave through the front door. If Zhao Gongzi went to find Master Zhao Si, he may actually never see me again, because I’ll be buried alive by Master Zhao Si.
I speedily double-locked the door, then threw the key out of the window. After all, he had already smashed the phone, so he can’t call anyone to come get the key.
Zhao Gongzi coldly stared at me for a while, then turned around and started climbing out the window.
The ancients were careless and lost Jing Zhou, I was careless and lost my breath.
I watched as he climbed out of the window right in front of me, then jumped down to the first floor in a few moves. Back then I should have chosen an apartment on the sixth floor instead of the second floor, at least then it would make him more afraid.
I also went and climbed out of the window, in any case, I couldn’t let him go find Master Zhao Si.
He turned to look at me and hollered, “Go back! Laozi came out to get the key!”
“When you come back I’ll go back,” I replied.
He knew that it was embarrassing now, so he looked around, picked up the key then came back in a flash.
“Get down from there!”
I came down from the window and said, “I was drunk last night.”
Zhao Gongzi sat on the sofa and coldly laughed as he said, “Alcohol loosens lips.”
This is the reason why I don’t like going to dance parties with him, I’m afraid of getting drunk and being unable to control myself from wanting to do him in. Back then, when I was 18, I also drank too much.
“I apologize, it won’t happen again.”
“I’ll go and talk it over with my dad, and get you to scram, as if I like you that much, Laozi can have whatever Laozi wants, would Laozi treasure you always going ‘here hurts’ or ‘there hurts’?”
“I’ll be buried alive.”

He coldly looked at me. “Do you think that all my family does is force people against their will?”

Me and Zhao Gongzi were completely unaware of what he was talking about.
Thirteenth Madame touched her flat stomach and smiled a smile filled with a mother’s love. “A mother and her son are connected by heart, one time when Xiao Long was out of town and got sick I had a dream about it.”
Oh, Thirteenth Madame is pregnant.
Zhao Gongzi said, “I just found out too.”
My blood turned cold.
Master Zhao Si asked, “Then why did you two come here looking like that? I’ve already told you so many times, he’s so big now, our Zhao family needs to uphold our reputation. Yixin ah, you’re more mature than him. Don’t always spoil him, you’ve got to control him too, how come you’re horsing around along with him?”
Zhao Gongzi’s brows furrowed. “Like hell he can control me!”
Thirteenth Madame scolded him, “Is that how you speak to your dad?”
Zhao Gongzi held it in, then said, “I have something to speak with dad about. Alone.”
I anxiously looked at him.
Master Zhao Si glanced at me. “Yixin, you send her back to rest. Come over to the study later.”
I only had a tiny, little amount of time left to live, after I finished accompanying Thirteenth Madame back I would have to give over my life.
I came to the door of the bookroom, opened the door, then saw Zhao Gongzi sitting with his back to me.
Master Zhao Si asked me, “Do you know what the matter is?”
I kept silent, because every word I said from here on out would become a confession or evidence against me.
Zhao Gongzi impatiently said, “I don’t want to sleep with him anymore, he isn’t willing to leave.”
Master Zhao Si looked at me.
Zhao Gongzi’s temper exploded, “He’s just someone that the family picked up, does he really think he’s my wife? If I don’t want to play anymore, can I not kick him aside? Dad, what are you doing looking at him? If I want to ditch him, do I actually need his approval?”
Master Zhao Si asked me, “You guys are fighting? Why?”
“I don’t know,” I said.
Zhao Gongzi shouted, “Fuck! You don’t know? It’s not as if I didn’t tell you, I’m sick of you, so take the money and piss off, okay?” Then he turned and said to Master Zhao Si, “He even hit Jin Xian’er!”
Master Zhao Si lectured him, “Back then it was you that——”
“I’m sick of playing.” Zhao Gongzi coldly said, “He’s old now, so give him some money and get him to leave.”
Master Zhao Si knew Zhao Gongzi’s personality, thought that he would definitely regret it later, and so didn’t let me really leave. He just said that we should both calm down, well, it was mostly Zhao Gongzi who needed to calm down.
Master Zhao Si got me to stay behind alone. For a long while, he didn’t say anything and waited for me to speak.
If I speak then it’s death, so it’s better to say nothing, I’ll definitely not talk first.
Finally, Master Zhao Si said, “Being a person, we have to be grateful for fortunate happenings, your fortune is pretty good.”
I silently nodded.
Then Master Zhao Si said, “Have we ever not given you enough to eat or wear?”
“No.”
Master Zhao Si said, “Then don’t take on so many jobs. Xiao Long likes to have a person with him; you’re always not there.”
“I understand.”
Master Zhao Si said, “He’s still in the midst of his anger, don’t annoy him for now.”
“I understand.”
Zhao Gongzi doesn’t like the main mansion, so he still went back to the apartment.
He asked me, “What are you coming here for?”
“To pack my luggage.”
He looked at me coldly.
I didn’t have much luggage and prepared to leave after picking up Hamm.
Zhao Gongzi coldly said, “That’s Laozi’s dog, put him down.”
“Hamm was picked up by me.”
“And you were fucking picked up by Laozi, put down Laozi’s dog!”
I put Hamm down and didn’t know what other luggage I could pack.
Zhao Gongzi wrote a cheque. “Take it and scram.”
Perhaps saying so makes me seem pretentious, but I didn’t want to scram right now. I don’t know where I could go, this apartment was rented by me, the dog was picked up by me, the water and electricity bills were paid by Jin Xian’er at my behest… this is my home.
Zhao Gongzi cursed at me, “Fuck, don’t you want to go every day? Hurry up and scram! You like this one and that one, fuck them, piss off!!”
Thirteenth Madame is pregnant, in the future Zhao Gongzi won’t be the youngest anymore, he’s even jealous of Wu Ge, so he may even want to strangle his little brother or little sister of the same father and same mother, and become a tragic story of the masses.
I really wanted to say that I wasn’t going anymore, but in the end, I couldn’t say it.
I want freedom and independence, I long for respect and equality, I don’t like Zhao Gongzi, he’s always so annoying.
I suddenly remembered, during that marathon, he was far ahead, yet stopped before the finish line and looked back at me. He asked if I wanted to be number one and said that if I wanted it, he would let me pass first. I had been running to the point of passing out, yet he said it in such an irrelevant manner, he didn’t care about it at all.
The things I want, he always gets with no real effort (other than his test scores, grades and other things that need a brain) and that’s why he doesn’t cherish them.
I hate Zhao Gongzi.
