My Billionaire Exhusband Grovels Me After Divorce-Chapter 818 - : Shen Yujun’s Momentum
Chapter 818: Chapter 818: Shen Yujun’s Momentum
Gu Guotai was taken aback, “She’s willing to come?”
The housekeeper hurriedly said, “She didn’t come alone, there’s an old lady with her, whom I heard Qiao Yin call Grandmother. The old lady looks very unwell, I fear—fear she may also be here to settle accounts with you.”
Gu Guotai’s eyes sharpened in an instant, and he looked at Hou Jinhua with some annoyance, “This is all your doing! You still have the face to come here and cry to me, you’ve practically thrown away all my dignity! Now the elders are bringing the wronged kid to settle accounts with me!”
Hou Jinhua hadn’t expected Qiao Yin to come, let alone with her grandmother.
However, she wasn’t afraid of Qiao Yin’s coming; as long as Old Madam Lu didn’t show up, she wouldn’t be intimidated!
Let Gu Guotai scold her; all she wanted now was to get her son back from Gu Guotai.
...
“Dad, what’s so important about Qiao Yin? Just let the housekeeper send her away! The important thing is Jing! I beg you to spare the child, he has grown up so cherished that it breaks my heart not to sleep if he even scratches himself. By hitting him like this, you’re hitting my heart!”
Gu Guotai felt it was simply impossible to communicate with his daughter-in-law; if he said one thing, she would respond with something completely different!
Wasn’t he heartbroken to punish his grandson? Did he not control the force of his hand? He just wanted to teach Gu Jing a lesson, not really to hurt him!
Gu Jing really wasn’t hurt, he was just making a fuss there.
The one who was hurt was Qiao Yin!
She could so casually talk about sending Qiao Yin away, without taking his, her father-in-law’s, illness to heart at all!
Gu Guotai’s anger surged, his temper becoming exceptionally violent, “Get out of here at once, don’t annoy me! I haven’t slept all night because of your good-for-nothing son, and now I have to deal with your mess of hitting someone! Sooner or later, you’re going to be the death of me!”
After Gu Guotai had spoken, he instructed the housekeeper to push him downstairs.
He had just gotten downstairs when he saw Qiao Yin helping an old woman’s arm walk in.
Yet, what he didn’t expect was how robust Qiao Yin’s grandmother appeared; her eyes were even bright and spirited, and she walked with a gait that was nothing like an old person’s, light-footed and with a demeanor of ethereal grace.
Then, Gu Guotai saw Qiao Yin’s face.
He couldn’t help but be dumbfounded!
He knew that Qiao Yin had injured her face, but he had never imagined that the injury was so severe!

Half of her face was so swollen it was unrecognizable, five deep claw marks etched across her once delicate and pretty cheek. Due to it being overnight, the scratches had turned to a horrifying purplish color, with the skin split and blood flesh turned outward, marked by obvious traces of blood.
Hou Jinhua, who had scratched her, clearly had done so with lethal intent, aiming to disfigure—her words from last night about it being an accident and not intentional were all lies!
It’s hard enough for a young girl to accept her face being wounded like this, let alone someone as old as Gu Guotai; he too would crumble if his face were injured like this!
If the housekeeper hadn’t mentioned beforehand that it was Qiao Yin coming, he wouldn’t have recognized her at all!
When Qiao Yin saw Gu Guotai looking at her, she spoke softly, “Old Master, my face…”
Shen Yujun interrupted Qiao Yin, her gaze fixed on Gu Guotai, “You are Gu Guotai, right? I’ve wanted to meet you for a long time; it was wrong to delay until today. If I had come earlier, my granddaughter wouldn’t have had to suffer so much!”
Gu Guotai had not expected that, given Old Madam Lu’s already imposing visit last night, the presence of Qiao Yin’s grandmother today would be even more formidable.
He wasn’t as short-sighted as his daughter-in-law; one look at the aura of Qiao Yin’s grandmother told him this old lady was no ordinary person.
Therefore, he lowered his posture and started, “It’s indeed my daughter-in-law’s fault that Qiao Yin has been injured. She has suffered through no fault of her own, and I had already reprimanded her last night. Furthermore, I had already instructed my son last night that he must go and apologize to Old Madam Lu today, and we will also deliver a compensation payment.”
