Hu Zhonglian already didn't want to waste another word on Ji Meishu.
He turned his head and prepared to go upstairs.
Before climbing the stairs, he didn't forget to look back, "Also, take this damned nanny away with you, our Hu family doesn't keep housemaids who bite the hand that feeds them."
Ji Meishu was in tears but refused to let go.
She clung desperately to Hu Zhonglian's suit jacket, saying, "I won't leave, Zhonglian, listen to me..."
Feeling annoyed, Hu Zhonglian tried to push her away, but couldn't shake her off.
During the scuffle, Bai Xiujuan, who had been silent for a while, suddenly turned and went to the storage room.
Soon after, Ji Meishu was kicked away by Hu Zhonglian.
Ji Meishu half-collapsed on the ground, was about to get up when she suddenly screamed.
Then a loud "thud" was heard, and she watched as Hu Zhonglian fell to the floor.
Hu Zhonglian lay back, falling right by the stairs, hitting the back of his neck heavily against the stair's edge.
