Zhou Mu brought Yu Chu to a room at the end of the third floor, turned around and left and went downstairs, leaving Yu Chu standing alone outside the thick black lacquered door.

The passage was very quiet, the door was not closed tightly, and faint conversations could be heard.

"Dad, it's really not my permission. That kid Li Wei is full of lust. I've been waiting downstairs all the time. I didn't know he wanted to do such a thing."

When Yu Chu heard this sentence, his eyes flickered in the darkness, he bent over his upper body lightly, and put his ear to the gap in the door.

A majestic and deep voice sounded: "Yu Feng, you know exactly what happened to Li Wei tonight, you know as well as I do. Did you send someone to lure Zhou Mu away? Did Li Wei get your permission? Didn't someone send medicine to Yu Chu's water?"

"Dad, I really—"

"Usually you have some small actions, I think it's harmless, and it's fine if you don't cause major troubles, but this time you want to destroy Yu Chu and our Yu family's reputation!"

The voice suddenly increased in volume, making it even more solemn and cold, and the other person in the room suddenly stopped making a sound.

"Yu Chu will not fight for what belongs to you, and you will not lose any points, including the entire Yu family in the future. Why are you targeting him like this? Yu Chu's surname is Yu, and it belongs to me. Son, your younger brother, Li Wei only gave up a third of the interest, and you sold him, do you still have me as a father in your eyes, do you have the Yu family?"

There was a slap on the table in the room, the tinkling of teacups, and something fell to the floor and broke.Yu Chu still held his breath and listened quietly outside the door.

"Do you think this is just Yu Chu's business? Fortunately, it didn't cause any impact tonight, otherwise, the Yu family will become the butt of others' jokes, and we will never even think about raising our heads for the rest of our lives! You will still be in charge of the Yu family in the future, A person who can sell his younger brother for a three-point profit, will those partners continue to trust you? The Yu family's foundation will not be ruined in your hands?"

After a few seconds of silence, there was a crisp slap on the face, followed by a thumping kneeling sound: "Dad, I was wrong, I was narrow-minded and short-sighted, I was really wrong..."

"I'm so busy every day, and I have to take care of these bad things. You mother and son should calm down in the future. Yu Chu's mother is gone, and she has never entered Yu's house. He can't be a thorn in your side."

"Dad, I know I was wrong, and I don't dare to do it anymore..."

"You must be punished for this matter tonight. After you spend a month in the castle, you are not allowed to leave the castle and leave the island. Your mother will be sent abroad, and you will not be allowed to return to the country for half a year. If there is another time, you will never be lightly forgiven."

"Dad, this is my own idea, it's none of my mother's business—"

"One more thing, she is not allowed to return to China within a year." That voice interrupted him coldly.

"……Yes."

The two stopped talking, and there were footsteps walking towards the door.As soon as Yu Chu stood up straight, the door was opened, and he met a tall and thin young man wearing gold-rimmed glasses.

This young man was the one who started to see off the guests at the entrance of the hall. He was tall and thin, with narrow eyes and a red mark on the left side of his face. He was in a state of distress. He seemed to be Yu Feng, the eldest son of the Yu family.

Yu Feng was obviously taken aback when he saw Yu Chu, and then guessed that he had heard that he had just been slapped, and his face flushed immediately, even the slap marks were not so obvious.

He wanted to go out, but Yu Chu stood at the door without moving, blocking the way out.

According to Yu Feng's usual temper, he would definitely push the person aside roughly and teach him a few words.But Yu Shiqing was in the room, and he could feel the two stern gazes behind him, so he could only swallow a few words through his teeth: "Brother, let me go."

This sentence sounded peaceful, but there were two vicious eyes behind the glasses.

He waited for Yu Chu to murmur that it was okay, and then he bowed his head and stepped aside dully.

——This lowly illegitimate child has always looked stupid, and he doesn't even have the courage to look up at him.

But what he didn't expect was that Yu Chu didn't respond when he heard this sentence, and didn't step aside to make way, but still stood at the door and looked at him.

Is this being frightened?

He was half a head taller than Yu Chu, so he blocked the light in the room and Yu Shiqing's eyes, and shrouded Yu Chu's thin figure in the shadow.Just when he suppressed his impatience and was about to speak again, he saw Yu Chu's lips curled up very slowly.

——It was a treacherous smile, malice spread from the corners of the slightly turned mouth, and when it reached the bottom of the eyes, it shone colder than ice thorns.

At that moment, Yu Feng felt chills all over his body, and his heart trembled violently. The picture of the poisonous snake spitting out a letter suddenly flashed in his mind, and he forgot what he wanted to say for a moment.

But that smile quickly disappeared from Yu Chu's face, as fast as his illusion.The person in front of him still had those big moist eyes open, with the stupidity of not understanding anything, and the timidity of being timid.

Yu Feng's heart was still beating wildly, and he suddenly realized that he was frightened by him. He was angry and annoyed, and his volume couldn't help but increase: "I told you to get out of the way, didn't you hear?"

"How did you talk to your brother?" Yu Shiqing in the house also snapped.

Yu Chu lowered his head and stepped aside to make way for him. After Yu Feng paused for two seconds, he finally didn't dare to say anything, just brushed past him and left bitterly.

"Yu Chu, come in." Yu Shiqing said.

Yu Chu obediently entered the room.

"Close the door."

Yu Chu closed the door again.

Yu Shiqing was over fifty years old, and looked very similar to Yu Feng, with a thin face and narrow eyes, but his face was more rigid, with two severe deep grooves between his brows.At this time, he was sitting behind the large mahogany desk, watching Yu Chu slowly walk to the middle of the room with complicated emotions, and slowly looked up at himself.

This son looks just like his dead mother. Although the woman's appearance is not clear anymore, he still remembers those big eyes that are always timid.The temperament is also similar, always silent, and does not know what is thinking.

Maybe there was nothing in that mind.

"Yu Chu, Dad knows everything about tonight." After a moment of silence, Yu Shiqing said.

Yu Chu looked at him quietly and didn't speak.

"Father has already dealt with Yu Feng in order to vent your anger on you, and he will make it difficult for that Li Wei." Yu Shiqing picked up the tea on the table, lifted the lid of the cup, and gently skimmed the tea foam on it.

He was waiting for Yu Chu to show a flattered expression before saying something touching, but Yu Chu still looked at him like that, with no emotion on his face.It's just that a mocking smile flashed across his eyes, but when he looked intently, he saw nothing but ignorance.

"It's a good thing you didn't suffer any substantial harm, and your brother didn't make a big mistake. He has already been punished as he should, so don't take this matter to heart in the future, and remember to hate your brother from now on." Yu Shi Qing continued.

After he finished speaking, he observed Yu Chu calmly, trying to find out if there was any dissatisfaction on his face.However, Yu Chu still didn't show any expression, just looked at him with his eyes open.

Yu Shiqing put down his teacup and sighed silently, feeling disappointed or relaxed in his heart.He unbuttoned the top button of his shirt, and a delicate gold chain slipped out of the shirt.

At the end of the gold chain is a small cross and a small gold hollow ball.The ball is very delicate, and the gold chain is pierced through the middle, but the cross looks very clumsy, it is carved out of wood, the upper end and the lower end are different in thickness, and it is a little distorted.

Seeing Yu Chu staring at his chest, Yu Shiqing took the two pendants with his hands and said, "Do you remember? This is a gift from you and Xiaofeng on my 40th birthday. Xiaofeng made it When you make a wish ball, you carve a wood carving. Dad cherishes it very much, and wears it on his body at all times, and has never taken it off for more than ten years."

"En." Yu Chu answered vaguely.

Yu Shiqing stared at the pendant, as if lost in memory, and there was a little more warmth in his eyes.After a while, he said: "Our family is doing a serious business, but the tree is so big that many people stare at it, so you two brothers have to get along well and support each other. That's it, you are tired today, go back and rest early."

Yu Chu nodded to him, turned around and walked towards the door. As soon as he opened the door, he heard Yu Shiqing say behind his back: "Do you have anything you want? Or do you have any requests? Dad agrees to you."

Yu Chu's back stopped, he pressed his tongue against his cheek, and smiled at the door for the first time in this room.

He turned around maintaining this expression, and said in a cheerful tone: "I want to leave the island and go play somewhere else."

When Yu Shiqing heard this, the warmth on his face suddenly flew away, and a deep haze enveloped him.He stared at Yu Chu closely, and his tone became cold and cold: "How many times do I have to repeat? You can't leave the island, so just stay on the island obediently and don't go anywhere. Don't think that Dad is too strict with you, it's all for Hello. Remember, if you bring up the island in the future, you won’t even have the chance to leave the castle and go to the beach.”

Yu Chu heard clearly just now that he punished Yu Feng for not leaving the castle to leave the island for a month, that is to say, if Yu Feng was not punished, he could usually leave the island.

Then why can't I?

Yu Chu had a lot of doubts in her heart, but she knew that she couldn't pursue it any further, so she turned around and left the door silently.

Back in his room on the second floor, he took a shower, closed his eyes and soaked in the bathtub, relaxed a little, and began to think about what happened today.It wasn't until the water was getting cold that I got up and put on a bathrobe, tied it loosely. While wiping my hair with a towel, I went to the bedroom and turned on the TV.

In the background sound of the female news anchor, he opened the curtains, and the summer night wind carried the salty sea water, driving away some of the depression in his heart.The lights in the room were not turned on, and he was sitting on the window sill with a sullen face while touching the deformed little knuckle in the bright and dim light of the TV.

He didn't know what the outside world was like, but he didn't want to stay on the island like this.Everything is unclear now, so I can't act rashly, and wait until I get familiar with this place before trying to leave.

At that time, whoever blocks him will be killed.

As he was thinking to himself, he heard movement from a corner of the garden downstairs, someone talking and muffled crackling noises.He was very familiar with this sound, it was the sound of the whip whipping the wind, and falling heavily on the flesh.

He looked there, and found a few figures standing in a small open space. Through the dim streetlights, he felt that the tallest of them was Zhou Mu.To make sure, he turned off the TV, making the room completely dark, and the faces of the people in the garden suddenly became clear.

One of them was Zhou Mu. He was bare-chested and only wearing a pair of black trousers, facing Yu Chu's direction.The short-sleeved T-shirt was draped over the flower branch next to it, revealing the hard and firm muscles of the chest and abdomen.

There were two people standing on each side of him, and one person was a few meters away behind him, holding a long leather whip in his hand.

Snapped!

The whip was raised and lowered, and Yu Chu saw Zhou Mu frowned at that moment, and his muscles tensed even more, but he still kept his eyes half-downcast and said nothing.

Yu Chu knew the pain of being whipped with a whip, it was a nightmare he couldn't get rid of.

After being beaten, she would always stay out of bed for three or two days, and would be unconscious with a high fever.After a group of children escaped from that place collectively, they did not experience the torture of whipping again, but the invisible whip marks seemed to be branded deep in the skin, and as soon as they heard the crackling sound, the heart-piercing pain emerged. out.

The leather whip that whipped Zhou Mu was thicker and stronger, the body of the whip was shiny, and every stroke resounded throughout the garden.But he only looked paler, and his body would tremble slightly with the whipping of the whip, other than that, he didn't see much reaction.

At this moment, Zhou Mu suddenly raised his head and looked sharply at the window on the second floor.

Yu Chu was sitting behind the window, and his first reaction was that he saw him, and he had to hide back reflexively.As soon as his upper body leaned back, he realized that the lights in the room were turned off and it was pitch black. He should not be able to see anything, so he restrained himself from continuing to lean back.

After the five whips passed, the people behind Zhou Mu stopped their hands and looked towards the door out of breath. Only then did Yu Chu notice that there was a person standing there. He was short with a kind face. With a smile.

But the words that came out of his mouth were not as kind as his appearance.

"Zhou Mu, the second young master was almost in danger today, and the main responsibility lies in your dereliction of duty. The eldest young master and sir are kind-hearted, and for the sake of your usual loyalty, they only punished you with five lashes. Do you accept this punishment?"

Yu Chu saw Zhou Mu slowly open his lips and said hoarsely, "Thank you, Mr. Eldest Young Master and Uncle Wu, I recognize it."

He lowered his head halfway, his eyebrows blocked the light, and the upper part of his face was hidden in the shadows, only his tightly pursed lips and sharp jawline could be seen.

Uncle Wu smiled kindly, and said to the two people beside him: "Why don't you help Brother Mu go back to rest?"

Those two people responded, and rushed left and right to hold Zhou Mu's arms, but he avoided them sideways.

He picked up the T-shirt on the flower branch and walked in the other direction alone. When he turned around, Yu Chu saw several criss-crossed and ferocious whip marks on his back.

All the people in the garden dispersed, and the surroundings became quiet again. The lights on the pier by the coast were extraordinarily bright. There were people patrolling the gate of Yujiabao. Occasionally, red dots could be seen flashing, which were the light dots when the walkie-talkie was pressed.

Yu Chu retreated into the room, closed the curtains, and turned on the lights in several rooms in the suite, including the bathroom and living room.In the bright light, I got into the quilt on the bed and fell asleep.
