The Adonis Next Door: 100 Days of Forced Love Chapter 104

Chapter 104

When a person is beaten up a lot, they become bit numb to violence, and start feeling that domestic violence isn’t such a big deal, nothing worth making a big fuss over.

It came to the point that….. How to say this? Later on, every time he saw his father, if his father didn’t hit him, he’d feel that it was strange.

Seriously thinking back, since seven years old, the only interaction he had with his father seemed to only be his father hitting him, and the only interaction he had with his mother, was watching her cry.

From that point onwards, a perfectly good family became less and less like a family

It was also starting from then, that he started feeling that ‘family’ wasn’t as important as people made it out to be.

If you had to use a word to describe it, it would be inessential. It was only a place where you could go back to sleep the night.

Even though his parents had already lost all affection for each other, they still didn't divorce.

Because their families' interests were entangled together, they were simply not in the position to make the decision.

At that time, he had thought to himself, if this is how marriage is like, then he’d rather not marry.

After all, love would eventually fade, and it wasn’t as if people would die without love. What was the point in trampling in this muddy water, turning himself into something that was less than a human, less than a ghost?

His parent’s tragic marriage, finally came to an end two years ago.

His father shot his mother dead and then committed suicide.

At that time, he was still in the army. When he received the news, he rushed back to Beijing that very night to see their two corpses.

And it was also at that moment, that his original desire of not wanting to get married, and his decision of not wanting to have romantic relations.h.i.+ps, became even more resolute.

His parent’s deaths forced him to have to give up the dream he had since he was young, and come back to take over the Gu Group.

He was truly thinking that it’d be pretty nice spending his entire life alone, at peace with himself, completely relaxed and carefree.

But how was he going to deal with this Liang Dou Kou who had been standing behind him like a tiger stalking her prey?

The reason he had let Liang Dou Kou to move into his villa was because his grandpa had threatened him with death.

Naturally, his grandpa also forced him to go register their marriage…… Register what marriage, he had never once thought of getting married; there was nothing to discuss about.

Liang Dou Kou naturally wasn't willing to let it go just like that. She would go to his grandpa’s house make a light complaint every day and make a big fuss every three days. His grandpa would then follow up after, disturbing him with a small complaint every day, a big fuss every three days. His perfectly good life had simply been messed up till all was lost[1].

However, the him at that time, could still face and deal with Liang Dou Kou really easily.

He thought to himself, if she wants to live in his villa, then fine, come and live there, if worse comes to worse, he just won’t go back there anymore…… If she wants to register, than fine, he’ll spend some money, pull some strings and forge a fake marriage certificate…… Fool her first at any rate, as long as he could finally get some peace and quiet.

The day she moved into his house, she went to visit his grandpa’s mansion. He had something to attend to that day, and happened to be there as well.

She came in as he was leaving and the two met face to face.

To be honest, even after so many years, he had never properly looked at Liang Dou Kou in the face. He didn’t know what had come over him that day, but when they brushed past each other, for some reason, as if he had been possessed by the devil, he swept a glance at her.

To his surprise, this young girl’s guts were extremely big. Her pair of made-up[2] pitch-black clear big eyes were staring intently at him.

He only gave her one glance, and then exited the house. Before he entered the car, he cast a look at the mansion window. Behind the bright gla.s.s, she was still staring at him.
