Eric still drove Ellison's car to Gu family, and there was no time for him to return the car.
When he got back to the Gu family, almost all people gathered in the living room. Wayne was sitting in the middle. On his left sat Angela and Richard. On his right were Jade and Simon. And beside them was Frank.
"Angela, you didn't take care of Eric when he was a child. Now he has made such a mess. He embarrassed the Gu family. How can the Gu family gain a reputation in the Guan city in the future?" Jade said sarcastically.
Angela glanced at her, with a hint of displeasure in her eyes, but she didn't show it. "It's my responsibility to not teach Eric well. I'll wait for him..."
"This is my business. My parents don't fail to teach me. It's none of their business." Entering the living room, Eric interrupted and glanced at Jade unhappily. "I have my own thoughts. No matter what I have done is right or wrong, it's all my own business. It has nothing to do with them."
"Eric, you can't say that." Jade said, "This time you are not the only one involved. All the Gu family are involved. How could you say that?"
"Auntie, as you said, Gu family was involved, but you are not surnamed Gu." Eric answered back sarcastically. To be honest, he had never admitted that she was a member of the Gu family.
"You..." Jade blushed and was about to lose her temper. But before she could do that, Wayne shouted, "Enough!"
He glanced at Jade with a straight and then turned to Eric, "Do you know what happened last night had a great influence on Gu family?"
"I know." Standing in front of him, Eric replied in a very calm tone.
"Do you know that AF Company might give up the cooperation with us because of that?" His tone became very serious, and he stared at Eric with fury.
Hearing that, Eric frowned unconsciously. Since Lily told him about AF Company, he had stopped the project that he had received from Wayne, and he hadn't proposed to cooperate with him any more, though he hadn't told Wayne yet.
Besides, it was not the right time to tell him now. He could only wait for Ellison to have the results of investigation.
"I know." His answer was less confident than before.
"How could you do such a thing when you know that?" He was so angry that he banged the table, making the noise of the glass tea set. "Kneel down! I'll teach you a lesson!"
"Father." As soon as Angela heard the family rules, she immediately stood up and said, "It's my fault that I didn't teach Eric well. I..."
"Just sit here." "I will teach him a lesson today. No one can stop me," He interrupted, glaring at her.
Hearing what he said, nobody in the Gu family dared to stop him.
Even though Angela loved and cared about her son, she could do nothing. She turned around and looked at her husband. He seemed not to care about it at all. She didn't know what he was thinking about.
But when she looked at Eric, who was already kneeling in the middle of the living room, her eyes directly turned red. She knew the family rules of the Gu family. She never hit her son, now let him bear the family rules. How could she not be distressed?
At this time, Wayne had stood up from the sofa, holding the prepared soft whip in his hand, and walked towards Eric step by step.
Seeing this, Angela was even more anxious, but she had no choice. She sat down on the sofa and turned her head away.
However, when she turned her head, her sight met with that of Jade exactly. There was a pleased light in her eyes and a smile on her lips.
Ever since she married into the Gu family, Jade didn't like her at all. Instead, she always tried to provoke her relationships with other people in the Gu family and showed off how excellent her son was in front of her. Now that Eric was punished, she felt very happy secretly.
At this moment, Eric, who was kneeling on the ground, was somewhat grateful that he didn't bring Lily with him. Otherwise, her thin body couldn't bear it.
He didn't feel nervous but calm when he saw Wayne standing beside him with a whip.
"This is the third time I use the family rules in my life." "The first time, your father was disobedient when he was a child, and I hit him. The second time, he didn't admit what he had done wrong. And this time, you did something wrong."
"Grandpa, I know I made you unhappy this time. I will take the punishment as you wish. But I don't think I did something wrong." Eric stared at Wayne.
"You... You actually said that you didn't do anything wrong?" Wayne glared at him angrily.
"No, I didn't." Eric was still calm. "Last time when I fell off a cliff, my legs were broken and I was hospitalized, you saw that I had a crush on her. And one day when I kissed her, you also saw me kissing her. But you didn't say anything. Didn't you acquiesce in our relationship?"
He said it on purpose, but it was partly true. Last time when he kissed the wound on Lily's neck, he indeed met it.
Hearing this, Wayne was stunned. That was true. When he went to the hospital with Frank, he opened the door and saw it. He then said, "Did I acquiesce in it? At that time, I was against it!"
"But you didn't say anything afterwards, just let me help you with the company affairs." Said Eric.
"You mean I acquiesce in your relationship with that girl by the condition that you go back to the company?" Wayne asked.
"Isn't it true?"
Slap!
The moment he finished his words, he was whipped on the back. He frowned in pain.
Slap!
