Chapter 16 An Eye for an Eye

```

"Ahhh——"

Gu Beihuai looked at his sister's scream, having the urge to knock someone out.

Clearly, he's the one injured, he's the one bitten, so why is Gu Nanzhi the one screaming?

"Shut up!"

Gu Beihuai really couldn't stand it, feeling his ears being tortured, so he yelled at Gu Nanzhi.

Gu Nanzhi was like a chick being choked by the neck, instantly quiet, and looked pitifully at Tang Chuxia.

Tang Chuxia also leisurely let go of her mouth from Gu Beihuai's neck.

A clear bite mark emerged, even with a hint of blood.

The nerves of Gu Beihuai, tense from the pain, couldn't help but twitch, making the bite mark shake as well.

The handsome, resolute man, with a bite mark clearly left by a woman, just happened to be by the Adam's apple, so when it moved, so did the pain, reminding him of what he'd been through.

His fingers went to press on the wound, but Tang Chuxia reminded him: "Even though I think it's nothing, your fingers might have lots of bacteria, if it gets infected, it won't go away!"

With a bit of schadenfreude, Tang Chuxia felt no guilt at all.

She even seemed to be enjoying the show.

Gu Nanzhi gave a thumbs-up to Tang Chuxia.

This is exactly Tang Chuxia, a woman who could match Gu Beihuai evenly in a fight.

Just that before, their quarrels were fierce, but never escalated to the point of leaving marks.

Gu Beihuai's fingers coldly laughed, the fingers landed on the bite mark without care, as if it wasn't his skin, but Tang Chuxia's, rubbing it hard.

The blood stained his fingertips, he saw his own blood, then looked at Tang Chuxia, in the shocked gazes of Tang Chuxia and Gu Nanzhi, he put it into his mouth and sucked on it.

Gu Nanzhi: (⊙o⊙)...

Tang Chuxia's face finally changed, she held her throat and squeezed out a sentence from between her teeth: "Gu Beihuai, you shameless!"

Gu Beihuai spat out a mouthful of saliva mixed with blood, pushed aside Gu Nanzhi blocking in front of Tang Chuxia, grabbed Tang Chuxia's chin and jerked it to the side.

Amid Gu Nanzhi's screams again, he bit her earlobe.

A pair of clear bite marks appeared on her jade-like earlobe, like a new style of earrings, red with blood, quite striking.

Tang Chuxia's tears fell.

It really damn hurts!

Turns out when she heard elders say that piercing ears could be deadly painful, she didn't believe it, but now she does.

She felt her earlobe must have been pierced through.

Gu Beihuai showed Tang Chuxia the blood thread on his teeth.

"An eye for an eye! Do you like it?"

Tang Chuxia gritted her teeth, this time with an actual sobbing tone, "I like it, I love it to death, is Brother Beihuai deciding to be my sweetheart?"

Gu Beihuai's eyes dodged, then quickly met hers again, angrily shouted: "Can you have some shame?"

This time Gu Beihuai strode away.

Couldn't stay any longer.

After he left, Gu Nanzhi grabbed Tang Chuxia's hands and excitedly squealed: "You're so brave!"

She didn't actually believe Tang Chuxia had feelings for her brother, if she could have, she would have long ago; otherwise, why would there be anything like the Hu Mingcheng affair?

Gu Nanzhi thought Tang Chuxia was now opposing her brother, probably for her own sake.

No idea where her confidence came from.

Tang Chuxia pointed at her earlobe: "Is it swollen? Is it bleeding?"

Gu Nanzhi leaned in closely to check.

"My brother does have good teeth, no wonder he dared to bite!"

With Tang Chuxia's skin, swelling was inevitable.

Despite disliking her brother and always figuring out ways to oppose him, she's still from the same mother, so Gu Nanzhi couldn't not help, applying medicine and bandaging, feeling guilty towards Tang Chuxia.

"I'll go tell my mom, can't believe my brother dared to lay hands on a woman, he's finished!"

The more Gu Nanzhi thought about it, the angrier she got, and after bidding farewell to Tang Chuxia, she ran to the courtyard to wait for her mother, ready to complain.

Madam Tang came over upon hearing the commotion, naturally saw Tang Chuxia's injured earlobe, felt heartbroken, and wanted to demand an explanation from the Gu Family, but Tang Chuxia said she was the one who bit first, both were in the wrong.

Madam Tang poked Tang Chuxia's forehead: "You're already so grown up, why still can't get along with that Gu boy? Luckily, you've let go of the obsession with that Hu boy, otherwise, if the Hu Family knew, who knows how they'd twist the story!"

Tang Chuxia clung to Madam Tang's arm: "Mom, I want to break the engagement soon, today Hu Mingcheng even called me shameless, even though he took his little sister to the party, my classmates looked at me with such sympathy!"

Madam Tang was furious: "Sure enough, he's an ungrateful ingrate, your dad and grandparents shielded her so much, don't spare her any face in the future!"

It was clear Madam Tang really disliked Tang Wanqiu.

Tang Chuxia seized the chance to ask: "Wanqiu isn't my real sister, right?"

Madam Tang nodded, "I didn't intend to tell you, but since that little brat dared to lay hands on you, I won't keep it from you anymore, better than letting you be used by her schemes!"

From Madam Tang's account, it was clear Tang Wanqiu wasn't Madam Tang's biological child, although she did have twins back then, which many people knew, she even had it checked in the hospital.

But during delivery, they found out one was naturally weak, after being born, didn't last a few days. Madam Tang was deeply saddened, just then, Tang Wanqiu's mother also just gave birth to her and had to hide the child due to some reasons.

Since Father Tang had a good relationship with Tang Wanqiu's biological parents and only they, the couple and grandparents, knew about the twin's death, the grandmother decided to let Tang Wanqiu live as the twin.

But as the two children didn't resemble each other, Madam Tang's grandparents decided to take Tang Wanqiu to the old residence, her biological parents also agreed since it was an enormous favor just to let her survive.

Originally, they got news that Tang Wanqiu's parents might get rehabilitated, and planned to send her back, unexpectedly, the old couple passed away quickly due to illness, so they had to bring her back.

Tang Chuxia was still puzzled, because after the original owner died, the sister didn't acknowledge her ancestry or change her surname, still being a Tang daughter.

Could it be there were more variables involved?

She couldn't figure it out at the moment, so she didn't ponder further.

Instead, she asked Madam Tang: "So are we going to keep her at home now?"

Madam Tang sighed: "For now, we can't disclose her identity, knowing back then the matter was kept hidden from many, if her parents didn't return and she was kicked out, it might draw suspicion and wouldn't be good for our family!"

Tang Chuxia agreed, understanding Tang Father and Madam Tang, the original owner in her past life was too selfish, ruined her own reputation, forcing her parents to send her away, but she unfortunately couldn't cope and died.

"My dad won't reveal Tang Wanqiu's lineage to her, will he?" Tang Chuxia urgently asked!
