Gu Yuanlei's face darkened even further at the thought of facing his family's expressions when he returned this time.

Hearing the miserable screams coming from the room, Lan Yun asked with some concern, "Father, this kid seems a bit useless. He had barely brought up the topic before he was chased and beaten out of the house."
