Chapter 1191 Reprimand, Resolving Conflicts
Seventeen felt uncomfortable listening to her husband's angry scolding.
What she cared about, of course, was that her husband mentioned that her parents had opposed their marriage. It turned out that he had been brooding over it.
Zhou Lan'er burst into tears. "Any of you can point fingers at my feelings, brother. What about you back then? No one wants their affairs to be dictated by others. Why can you lecture me so pompously without even realizing what kind of person you've set?"
Lan'er choked and looked at Kou Quan with tears in her eyes. She reached out to touch Kou Quan's face, then hugged Kou Quan's body.
"This is my own choice. No matter how hard or tiring it is, I will stick with it. Even if I don't have enough food, clothes or shelter in the future, I don't care. I love him. If love could be rational, the word 'love' would no longer exist in this world."
Kou Quan's clothes were soaked with tears and he cried sadly.
She was an adult, about to turn 28, and she had decided to marry this man at this age. Whether it was right or wrong, she would take responsibility for everything in the future. She had to walk her own life, and no one could do it for her.
Seventeen lowered her head, bit her lips and sobbed softly.
Kou Quan took a long breath. His girlfriend's trust and her family's rejection were really tormenting his heart.
He didn't necessarily want to marry a lady from a prominent family. He just wanted to live a simple life with his wife, spending his whole life together and ignoring the complicated society. However, reality repeatedly ran counter to his expectations.
He is trying hard to maintain this relationship, undoubtedly because he doesn't want to let down his girlfriend who trusts him so much.
While the few people were in a stalemate, a lot of people came one after another, all coming for Zhou Lan'er. There were many unexpected faces, which made Zhou Lan'er so moved that she burst into tears.
Both parents came, and the Zhuang family also came. There were more and more people. After the police arrived, they asked everyone to evacuate. The Zhou family came out and politely asked the police to go back. They would coordinate the family affairs privately.
All the youngsters were invited to the Zhuang family hotel for tea. It was Seventeen who called to bring Mr. Zhuang Sanye and his wife to the scene. Lu Jiang and Kou Quan were both Mr. Zhuang Sanye's adopted sons, so it was impossible for him to sit back and watch.
The Zhou couple greeted Mr. Zhuang Sanye and his wife and left with their daughter. Seventeen and Zhou Haoyu stayed there.
Mr. Zhuang San's face was gentle, not angry, and he said earnestly:
"It's not for us elders to meddle in the affairs of our children, but in this case, the most important thing is to consider the Zhou family girl's wishes. How will the Zhou family's parents view you two for fighting like this? How can you expect them to hand over their daughter to a man who is frivolous, youthful, and unstable? One is a business elite, the other a highly respected doctor, yet they have done something so shocking. After seeing this in the newspaper, have you considered how you will face others in the future?"
Lu Jiang and Kou Quan both lowered their heads. This was indeed not a glorious thing. After all, they were almost thirty years old, not just three.
Third Master Zhuang continued, "Everyone wants to avoid embarrassing matters and suppress them at all costs. But you, on the other hand, are so afraid that the world won't know about your brawl. The reports use the names of doctors from a certain hospital and CEOs of the Asia-Pacific region of a certain multinational corporation. The negative impact you've had on society and the public is that how can today's doctors and business elites be so naive? Rude, violent, and uneducated! That's not all. The organizations behind you are also implicated: a certain hospital, a certain company..."
Kou Quan and Lu Jiang lowered their heads lower and lower. A single misstep would lead to eternal regret. They had not expected that their fight was witnessed by so many people.
In order to achieve a brief peace, the two of them usually do so through fighting. This is an inertial rule from childhood to adulthood. They meet in a deserted place and quell each other's anger. Just like an international border that is about to stir, they always have to use war to achieve temporary peace.
No one expected Zhou Lan'er to send a group message, and no one expected the matter to be magnified so many times.
Seventeen felt a little sorry when he saw his brother being scolded.
From childhood to adulthood, it was always her and her brothers who were scolded by their parents, and her brother would plead for mercy, and almost every time he was implicated and scolded. Her brother, who had never made any mistakes, was scolded by their father and was almost thirty years old. How could Seventeen feel good about it?
"Dad, please stop talking about my brother." Seventeen spoke softly, not daring to look up at her father for fear of being scolded.
Her father is always nice, but when he is serious he is really serious, especially when he is teaching Zhuang Shijue a lesson.
When Zhuang Shijue was little, she was very naughty. She always did the opposite of her father and refused to obey. When her father beat her, he would really hit her hard, and there were often times when she was unable to get out of bed for days.
When their father was scolding them, their mother would not say anything, because if she said anything, the children would not listen. Instead, they would think that they were right and their resentment towards their father would deepen. Conversely, when their mother was scolding them, their father would not say anything either.
So many times when my father was playing Zhuang Shijue, my mother would hide in the room and cry because she was heartbroken.
Zhou Haoyu reached out and held his wife's hand tightly, trying to stop her from making any sound. Why should he meddle in something that had nothing to do with him?
Mr. Zhuang San looked at his daughter sharply. Seventeen felt as if sitting on pins and needles, not daring to make a sound.
"You're all grown up now. You have your own ideas and reasons for doing this. If you think I'm wrong, feel free to speak up and we can discuss it."
Discuss? Yeah, so you still think you're so kind and amiable now. Even the King of Hell is scarier than you.
"You have your own lives and your own careers. You must be responsible for everything you do." Master Zhuang San said helplessly when he saw that no one said anything.
There was a long silence at the scene, and Kou Quan finally raised his eyes, "Yes, uncle, I understand. I'm sorry for disturbing you today, and I won't do it again."
"Where is Lu Jiang?" Mr. Zhuang San asked coldly.
"Remember your uncle's teachings!" Lu Jiang said in a deep voice.
Anyone in their twenties or thirties would feel uncomfortable if they were lectured like this.
"As for how to deal with the following matters, I think you can handle it yourselves without me having to say much. Also, regarding matters of love and marriage, I hope you will think carefully about what to do. Do you really like the girl, or are you just fighting for what belongs to her to show off your ability? You are all smart and capable. I don't want to see you do such childish things in the future. Can you do it?" Mr. Zhuang San asked again in a deep voice.
"can!"
"Yes!" Lu Jiang and Kou Quan answered in unison.
Lu Jiang and others left one after another, and Mr. Zhuang Sanye and his wife rested in the lounge.
"What's wrong?" Zhuang Zhoucheng's expression softened and he asked Huo Yan in a low voice. She looked a little unhappy.
