Reborn : Space Intelligent Woman

Chapter 2178: Chapter 2178: What Is Bucongʼs Familyʼs Decision?

Bucong Shuye was not closer to Zhao Shuling because she was not his biological mother. His biological mother had died when he was 3 years old. One year later, his father brought Zhao Shuling and married her. So, she had been his mother for the last 20 years.

At first, after Zhao Shuling gave birth to Bucong Jian and Bucong Nanyi, she tried to uproot Bucong Shuyeʼs position as the heir to Bucong Family. However, she was not successful. Bucong Shuye was stronger than her sons. Bucong Guang was someone who prioritized strength. If Bucong Jian and Bucong Nanyi were as strong as Bucong Shuye, they might be able to take Bucong Shuyeʼs position.

It was not like Zhao Shuling never schemed against Bucong Shuye but she never succeeded. The last thing, she schemed against Bucong Shuye, her Zhao Family almost lost their lives. After that incident, the Zhao Family never helped Zhao Shulingʼs scheme against Bucong Shuye anymore. Zhao Shuling quieted down after giving birth to Bucong Jiye.

After Bucong Jiye grew up a little bit, Zhao Shuling wanted to use Bucong Jiye to smooth Bucong Shuyeʼs heart, wanting Bucong Shuye to spoil Bucong Jiye as his sister but Bucong Shuye did not care about Bucong Jiye at all. She was like other family members who he did not think worth getting closer to.

Zhao Shuling went to complain to Bucong Guang about her daughter. She was crying her heart out when she told Bucong Guang about her daughter. If someone did not pay attention to her words, people might think that Bucong Jiye was already a corpse.

”What? She is injured?” Bucong Guang was startled to hear this.

”Yes.” Zhao Shuling nodded.

Bucong Guang was someone who loved his daughter very much despite his favouritism. Of course, he would be startled hearing this matter.

”What happened?” Bucong Guang asked.

”Shuye stated it was caused by someone from the Dian Family. Her name is Tang Yu Qi. Do you know who this woman is? Shuye said she is someone that we can not afford to offend.” Zhao Shuling wanted to know.

Bucong Guangʼs expression changed after hearing the name. That woman was indeed someone who they could not afford to offend. Not because she was from the Dian Family but because of her unusual relationship with the Ancestor. The ancestor seemed to put her under his protection. If they wanted to touch that woman, they might need to consider the consequences. The Ancestor might destroy them.

”How is Jiye? Have you contacted the physician to treat Jiyeʼs injury?” Bucong Guang changed the topic.

”Yes.” Bucong Guang said.

”Good. Letʼs go and see Jiye first.” Bucong Guang said.

He wanted to hear from Bucong Shuye first about Bucong Jiye. After hearing the story from Bucong Shuye, he would decide what to do with this. Bucong Shuye might know the reason why Yu Qi made her move on Bucong Jiye.

The physician just finished checking on Bucong Jiye. He stood up and greeted Bucong Guang and Zhao Shuling.

”Patriarch Bucong, Madam Bucong.” The physician saluted at the couple.

”How is my daughterʼs injury?” Zhao Shuling asked.

”Miss Bucong has an internal injury. I suspect several of the ribs had broken due to some force. She needs months to recuperate to fully heal.” The physician stated Bucong Jiyeʼs condition.

Zhao Shuling started to cry. ”My daughter... My poor daughter... How can I be happy seeing you like this?”

The physician was feeling awkward. Madam Bucong acted like her daughter had already died. However, he did not dare to comment on this in front of Zhao Shuling and Bucong Guang. If he did that, he might lose his life right there.

”Take care of her.” Bucong Guang said.

After that, Bucong Guang left. He really needed to talk to Bucong Shuye. Bucong Shuye had just finished taking his bath when the servant announced that his father wanted to see him. He nodded putting some clothes and walked out to see his father.

”Father.” Bucong Shuye bowed his head as he saw Bucong Guang.

”What exactly happened to Jiye?” Bucong Guang asked.

Bucong Shuye explained everything that he knew to his father without hiding any details. Bucong Guang clicked his tongue as Bucong Shuye finished talking.

”So, what is the opinion about this matter?” Bucong Guang asked.

”I donʼt think we should go and find Miss Tang. What Jiye has done is really wrong.” Bucong Shuye stated.

”But she might think our family is weak if we donʼt confront her about his matter?” Bucong Guang stated.

”Do you think your family can win against the Ancestor?” Bucong Shuye asked meaningfully. ”If Jiyeʼs scheme succeeds, Miss Tang will face backlash due to her contract with her contracted beast, do you think the Ancestor will stay silent?” He asked again.

Seeing his father stay silent, Bucong Shuye added more. ”Jiye should be happy that she is alive. Judging from Miss Tangʼs strength, I can tell that she is holding back when she attacks Jiye.”

”You can tell?” Bucong Guang asked.

”She is stronger than me. She is also really good at controlling her strength. Maybe it is because of the Ancestor.” Bucong Shuye said.

Bucong Shuye was envied of Yu Qi. The Ancestor really regarded her highly. She even could stay at the mountain where the Ancestorʼs residence was.

Bucong Guang indeed loved his daughter but he could not sacrifice the family for his daughterʼs sake.
