B5SB -Chapter 234 Su Nian Is Beaten

When Gu Yihan rode her bicycle back to the family compound, she saw from afar Su Nian and Zhou Yan struggling with each other at the entrance of the courtyard.

“Smack!”

Unable to hold back her anger, Zhou Yan raised her hand and slapped Su Nian across the face.

Cursing, she shouted, “Who do you think you are, daring to meddle in my marriage?”

Su Nian was stunned by the sudden slap. She stared at Zhou Yan in disbelief.

“You… you hit me?”

Zhou Yan shook her numb hand and looked at Su Nian with contempt.

“So what if I did?”

“If my brother hadn’t married you, the daughter of a capitalist, you’d probably be rotting in some back alley by now!”

Su Nian covered her burning cheek.

Her eyes widened in shock. She had never expected Zhou Yan to think of her this way.

Suddenly, it felt as if her heart had been tightly clenched. All her sacrifices now seemed like a cruel joke.

When Gu Yihan rode up beside her, she happened to hear Zhou Yan’s words and frowned.

She stopped her bicycle and asked worriedly, “Sister Su?”

She didn’t know what the sisters-in-law were fighting about, so she didn’t dare interfere too much.

Hearing her voice, Su Nian lowered her hand.

She looked at Gu Yihan, who was pushing her bicycle, and tears began to fall uncontrollably.

Choking up, she said, “Xiao Han, can I go sit at your place for a while?”

When Gu Yihan saw the redness on Su Nian’s cheek, she froze slightly, then nodded.

“Don’t act like you’ve been bullied,” Zhou Yan’s sharp voice rang out.

“Always wearing that dead face. If you’ve got guts, take the kids too. Don’t dump them at home for me to take care of!”

Gu Yihan was stunned by Zhou Yan’s vicious tone.

There wasn’t a shred of respect for her sister-in-law.

This wasn’t a sister-in-law—this was an ancestor.

Su Nian was so angry that her lips trembled. She didn’t say a word in defense and stormed into the living room.

She picked up Zhou Ni from the wooden baby chair and pulled up Zhou Jianghe, who was sitting on a stool watching TV.

“Mom, what are you doing? I’m still watching TV!” Zhou Jianghe protested.

He had been watching the exciting part and was dragged away. His childish eyes were full of resentment.

At the courtyard entrance,

Zhou Yan looked at Gu Yihan’s delicate, fair face, and a trace of deep malice flashed in her eyes.

Why was it that they were both country girls, yet Gu Yihan could marry so well?

While she could only marry an ordinary soldier, without even the chance to follow the army.

That woman Su Nian had done it on purpose—having her brother introduce her to some lowly rural soldier.

She wanted Zhou Yan to always be beneath her.

No way.

The man she married could never be worse than Lu Huailin.

“Waaah… Mom, I don’t want to go! I want to watch TV!”

Hearing Zhou Jianghe crying, Gu Yihan turned and looked through the crack in the door.

She saw Su Nian holding her daughter with one hand and dragging her son with the other.

Zhou Jianghe cried while hitting Su Nian’s arm.

“Mom, why should I be involved in your war with Auntie?”

“I want to stay home and watch TV!”

“Tsk, isn’t it because your mom is useless?” Zhou Yan sneered smugly.

“She can’t do this, can’t do that. Without me, your whole family would starve!”

She had long figured out that Su Nian, a pampered young lady, couldn’t handle housework and childcare.

That was why she dared bully her so arrogantly.

Gu Yihan watched silently.

This woman was completely unreasonable.

Su Nian forced a weak smile at Gu Yihan.

“Xiao Han… sorry to trouble you.”

Gu Yihan nodded slightly and led them toward her home.

As she pushed open the gate, Zhou Yan’s sarcastic voice came from behind.

“If you’ve got the ability, let Su Nian stay at your place forever.”

“Sister Su, go in first,” Gu Yihan said.

With reddened eyes, Su Nian nodded and dragged Zhou Jianghe inside.

After parking her bicycle, Gu Yihan turned and walked up to Zhou Yan.

She stared coldly at her.

“Put away your filthy thoughts.”

With Lu Huailin’s rising position, any scandal—especially involving men and women—could be fatal.

Zhou Yan glanced around. Seeing no one nearby, she glared viciously at Gu Yihan.

If only she didn’t have that annoying face…

Suddenly, she curved her fingers and lunged at Gu Yihan’s face.

Gu Yihan reacted instantly, leaning back and grabbing her wrist.

Seeing her attack fail, Zhou Yan raised her other hand.

Gu Yihan caught that wrist too and kicked hard at her knee.

With a sharp pain, Zhou Yan dropped to one knee.

Gu Yihan was furious.

She had seen clearly—this woman wanted to ruin her face.

“Smack! Smack! Smack!”

Gu Yihan slapped Zhou Yan several times.

Then she bent down, gripping her face tightly.

Gritting her teeth, she said, “Do you think I’m your sister-in-law, someone you can bully?”

Zhou Yan stared wide-eyed.

“How dare you! I’ll tell Commander Lu you’re a vicious woman!”

Gu Yihan laughed angrily and kicked her legs again.

“Help! Commander Lu’s wife is beating people!” Zhou Yan screamed.

She wanted all the military wives to see Gu Yihan’s “true colors.”

“Stop yelling. It’s lunchtime. Who’s going to hear you?”

Zhang Xia leaned against her door and mocked her.

Seeing her, Zhou Yan immediately played the victim.

“Sister Zhang, please testify. Gu Yihan beat me!”

Gu Yihan smiled and asked, “Comrade Zhang, did you see me bully Comrade Zhou?”

Zhang Xia stood up straight and smiled.

“Sister-in-law, Comrade Zhou fell by herself. You were just helping her up.”

“You… you’re lying!” Zhou Yan cried in disbelief.

Zhang Xia laughed.

“Comrade Zhou, instead of thanking her for helping you, how can you falsely accuse her?”

Hmph.

Zhang Xia had long disliked Zhou Yan.

She and Battalion Commander Wang’s mother often gossiped behind her back, calling her a hen that couldn’t lay eggs.

Zhou Yan trembled with anger.

With no witnesses, she had been beaten for nothing.

Looking at Gu Yihan and Zhang Xia, she finally realized—these military wives stuck together.

Even if she was bullied, she had nowhere to seek justice.
