Best Delinquent Wife’s Order: Rise Again, Hubby Chapter 52

Chapter 52: I am a Righteous Person

Anhao immediately looked up at Zuo Hancheng as she replied, “We are talking about ten million yuan! That is an astronomical figure for me! Do you really think that just because I am the mayor’s daughter, I could really live like the young lady of the Gu family? All that Gu Tianming has ever given me is money to pay for my tuition fee! I had to sign a contract with the Gu family to receive any other sum of money. Yes, that is why I have to earn the ten million yuan using my own methods. I do not want to spend a penny from the Gu family if I can help it. I want to make money with my own hands and I am not doing it by stealing or robbing anyone. I am just trying to make some money based on my own ability.”

Zuo Hancheng pursed his lips and he had a very cold expression on his face. “Do you really think that it would be so easy for you to casually publish news about me? The public relations department of Shengling Group can be compared to the government’s secrecy department. They can purchase all the photos and any news that the media intend to publish in the blink of an eye. Even if you want to make some money, you might not be able to do so.”

Anhao’s body weakened immediately as she leaned against the back of the sofa. As expected, she was really too young and naïve.

How many people would have actually been waiting to take pictures of someone like Zuo Hancheng? As a result, over the past few years, there was only one profile picture of him that had ever made it to the internet. Anyone who put some thought into the matter would have known that the media would never dare to publish any news or photographs of him without his permission.

Although Anhao was very proud of him for wanting to keep a low profile and staying out of the public’s view, she felt that it was a huge waste for him to block her fortune just like that!

However, Anhao could not say anything to refute him at all. At this time, she could only lower her head as she held the pillow tightly in her arms to comfort herself.

“Don’t you know how much money there is in the card that I gave to you?”

Anhao rolled her eyes as soon as she heard his words. “It does not matter to me at all. It is not my money and I do not intend to spend that money anyway.”

“Alright, then.”

“I am a righteous person!”

Zuo Hancheng snorted. “Okay then, keep your righteousness. I want you to go to the study room now and copy your English textbook twenty times.”

Gu Anhao froze in place as soon as she heard the words ‘English textbook’. He wanted her to copy her English textbook twenty times?

She seemed to have heard him mentioning a similar punishment when she was drunk last night, but after she sobered up, she thought that it was only a nightmare. She would never have expected that nightmare to turn into reality in just one day!

Anhao knew that Zuo Hancheng was only punishing her because she was initially planning to secretly take pictures of him so that she could sell those pictures to get the ten million yuan cash reward. He was only punishing her in such an inhumane manner because she provoked him first.

Anhao immediately looked at him with an aggrieved expression on her face as she pleaded, “Can I take back what I just said? I will not try to take any more pictures of you so that I can get any cash rewards, okay? I don’t want to be a righteous person anymore…”

However, it was useless for her to beg for mercy.

Zuo Hancheng completely ignored her, and from time to time, Gu Anhao could feel a gust of cold wind blowing against her. She knew that it was useless to even try and seduce him with her beauty this time.

Besides that, half of her face was still red and swollen like a pig head. How would she be able to seduce him at all?

After a short while, Anhao could only drag herself up on her feet before walking to the study room. After sitting down in front of the desk, Anhao opened her English textbook reluctantly to take a closer look at the textbook that she was supposed to study for this semester.

This was already her third year in high school and this was the first time that she was looking so meticulously at her textbook. She was shocked when she took a closer look at the contents of the textbook.

There were so many words inside! The textbook was so thick! There were just too many sentences and words in the textbook and she actually had to copy it twenty times?

Gu Anhao quietly turned around to steal a glance at Zuo Hancheng who was still seated outside in the living room. After that, she turned around as she tried to secretly tear off some of the pages in the textbook. She was extremely confident that Zuo Hancheng would never know what she did.

“There are ninety eight pages in your English textbook. Don’t try and make a fool out of yourself. If you miss out on even just one page, I want you to copy that same page another ten times. Think carefully before you try to do anything foolish.”

Zuo Hancheng did not come over to her but it seemed as though his voice was lingering over her head. Gu Anhao felt as though her heart was sinking into a bottomless pit.

She could only put down the hand that was about to tear the pages off the book before she turned to the first page of the book. After that, she picked up a pen and started to copy the textbook obediently.

After copying the first sentence in the textbook, Gu Anhao felt as though the sun was already about to set. She was even more frustrated when she thought about copying the book twenty times. Gu Anhao picked up the English textbook before slamming it on the table twice to release her anger.

Even though she was making a ruckus in the study room, there was no sound or response from the living room. Zuo Hancheng was clearly ignoring her.

Anhao then yelled in grief and indignation, “Zuo Hancheng, you are really cruel and inhumane! You are trying to kill me!”

Zuo Hancheng replied immediately from the living room in a faint but deep voice, “What is this little punishment compared to your plan of following your husband to the hotel to secretly take pictures in order to sell it to the media for ten million yuan? As your husband, I am suffering from a psychological trauma because of your actions.”

‘Psychological trauma? My as*!’

He was clearly taking advantage of this opportunity to teach her a lesson!

Anhao calmed herself down as she rested her head on the textbook.

She would rather get beaten up by Mrs. Gu and Gu Shishi than copy the English textbook twenty times. Who would be able to save her now?

***

Later that night, Anhao’s eyes were already red because she had been copying the English textbook for almost the entire day. Therefore, she had a pitiful expression on her face, but Zuo Hancheng did not go into the study room to look at her even once.

Anhao was feeling very desperate when her cell phone suddenly rang. She looked at her cell phone immediately and noticed that the name ‘Mobai’ was displayed on the caller ID. She quickly picked up her cell phone and answered the call. Mobai was calling to look for her and not Zuo Hancheng. This was her one and only chance to say that she needed to go out to get something done!

Therefore, she put the phone to her ear happily as she answered, “Hello, Brother Mobai.”

Mobai was Zuo Hancheng’s personal assistant, and Anhao felt that there were goosebumps all over her body because she was receiving a call from him.

Zuo Hancheng, who was sitting outside in the living room, did not react at all. Therefore, Anhao quickly walked out of the study room as she held her cell phone to her ear. Zuo Hancheng was reading the newspaper in the living room and he did not seem to be bothered about the fact that she was on the phone.

Anhao stood by the door as she raised her voice and said, “Brother Mobai, why are you looking for me? Is it anything important? Should we meet up to discuss this matter in person?”

Mobai was surprised at her response because the first time he ever saw this girl next to President Zuo, she was so quiet and calm, and she barely opened her mouth at all.

“Miss Gu, President Zuo asked to find a tutor for you and I have already found the perfect tutor to help you in your studies. I will send his contact information over to you in a short while. The tutor will go over to help you with your studies tomorrow so please make sure to clear your schedule for him.” Anhao felt as though the joy and excitement that she was feeling before was disappearing as her heart sank to the ground.

She had almost forgotten that Zuo Hancheng had arranged for Mobai to find her a tutor. That was the reason why Mobai was calling her.

That was why he could be Zuo Hancheng’s personal assistant. He was a snake, just like him!

As soon as she hung up the phone, Anhao raised her head and stared at Zuo Hancheng who was calmly sitting on the sofa, reading his newspaper.

After thinking for a brief moment, Anhao suddenly asked, “Um… can I go out? Just for a short while. I will be back in one hour. Just give me one hour.”

“Your reason?”

Anhao rolled her eyes as soon as she heard his response. “Well, do you remember that occasion where I took five wine bottles from the bar? I never had the opportunity to pay the owner of the bar for those bottles. I just thought that I could step out for a short while and swipe the card that you gave me at the bar so that I can pay the owner for what I owe him. After all, the owner of the bar has always treated me very well. I can’t possibly owe him money without intending to pay him back…”
