Then why did you even mention Asia in the first place?
The only time she had seen cracks in his armor was the night of their consummation. His desire then had been raw, overwhelming—enough to burn through her defenses and leave her clinging to him in a haze of hope. That one night had given her something precious.

Also, what you said about Eastern cultures can't be applied as a general statement. Japan literally has a culture where it's normal for married men to sleep with prostitutes. Furthermore, Asia is known for being rife with domestic violence, not helping victims of DC and not recognising s3xual assault in marriages. Go read more about Asia.

I was being sarcastic. This guy clearly doesn't like her, but she keeps pushing and hoping like her hopes can make someone like her. Choosing to be with someone who doesn't like you means accepting I'll treatment from them and she doesn't seem to get that.

Gu Rahai needs to die.
But Gu Ruhai had changed a lot, he seemed to talk less.

He always says this nonsense only to repeat it.
"Here's 10,000 yuan. Take it. From now on, you are no longer my brother, and don't come to me for anything. I have no brother who angered our father to death."

Finally!!!
Mr. Gu had passed away.

I knew it. We're at chapter 216, author. You need to be more creative with your plot. You can't keep recycling the same things.
Gu Ruhai nodded. (To be continued. If you enjoyed this work, feel free to vote on Qidian (qidian.com), your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com to read.)

Gu Ruhai is still a punk who gets taken advantage of
If Gu Ruhai refused to step in, then their family was truly doomed.

I want to add that the plot is very repetitive. More than 200 chapters in and it's still the same story being told, except it's new circumstances that arise. Essentially, it's a story about parents who let their family walk all over them even if it means starving their own kids. They eventually get a backbone only to wind up forgiving their family and giving them their house and money when their lives improve. The lesson is - cowardice never leaves a person. I maintain the stance that the girl should've killed Gu Ruhai the second she was reborn. Men like that don't deserve an offpring; much less a life.
What's she talking about? She was left to die on a farm. They treated her worse and she still remained loyal to them.
She even felt that if her own parents treated her like this, she might have broken off relations with them long ago.
