Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Su Wanwan did not want to go back home, but she had not choice but to return because of Su Xueqin.

That night, she called for a taxi. After getting out of the car at the entrance, she did not notice another car behind her.

“Isn’t that Wanwan?”

Old Master Xing who was initially resting immediately opened his eyes.

“Why did she take a taxi here?” Huo Qinyu muttered, sounding perplexed. “Hasn’t she already gotten married to Ah Shen? Why didn’t he arrange for a driver to send her here?”

The two black Audis slowly drove into the compound, passed Su Wanwan, and finally entered the garage.

Su Wanwan glanced at the cars before she stepped into the villa.

Su Xueqin was sitting in his wheelchair, reading a book. He was wearing formal clothes today, making his complexion look even better.

“Grandpa.”

Su Xueqin smiled happily when he saw his granddaughter. “Wanwan, you’re here.”

The door of the study room opened, and the family of three walked out.

As soon as he saw Su Wanwan, Su Yuntang’s expression changed. His tone was impatient as he sneered, “Why did you come back so suddenly?”

Su Wanwan sighed and said, “Grandpa, I told you that someone will not welcome me in this house. I think it would be better for me not to come back here next time.”

Su Yuntang’s face instantly turned red. “What are you saying, you bastard?!”

Slam!

Su Xueqin threw his book to the floor viciously. “This is my house! I was the one who asked Wanwan to come home, so whoever disagrees can get out of my house now!”

Su Xueqin’s words were harsh, and both Jiang Yi and Su Yanyan looked very unhappy. However, Su Wanwan was smiling brightly as she sat down beside Su Xueqin to watch the show.

Su Yuntang glared at her before saying lowly, “Dad, the second elder of the Xing family is going to be here soon-”

“If you think this is embarrassing, then you can get lost!”

“Dad…”

Su Yuntang wanted to continue speaking, but the maid suddenly said, “Old Master Su, the Xing family has arrived.”

“Go and bring the guests in,” Su Xueqin ordered, and Su Yuntang had no choice but to comply.

As soon as he left, Su Xueqin whispered, “Don’t say anything later. Grandpa will gain some justice on your behalf.”

Su Wanwan smiled gratefully at her grandfather.

Su Yanyan could only clench her fists in anger.

Soon, Old Master Xing entered the living room. He was wearing a black shirt and leaning on his walking stick which had a dragon’s head carved on the handle. Although he was nearly eighty, he had a straight back, keen eyes, and sharp features.

Old Mistress Xing, Xing Guozhi, and Huo Qinyu were directly behind him, with Xing Yuyun walking behind all of them.

Su Wanwan glanced at Xing Yuyun and she saw that there was a bandage and blood stains on his face, as though someone had just beaten him up.

As soon as their eyes met, Su Wanwan looked away.

Turns out this scumbag was the type of person who would casually have sex with celebrities too. He even shared the same bed partner as his good friend!

Hahaha! Men really were scoundrels!

After greeting each other, Old Master Xing got straight to the point: “The reason I came here today is to make amends. I have been living in the suburbs all this while, so I did not know about all the horrible things that this unfilial grandson of mine has done. He has hurt our in-laws, and brought shame to the Xing family.”

Old Master Xing looked at Xing Yuyun and asked, “Yuyun, do you know what you did wrong now?”

Xing Yuyun did not speak.

Old Master Xing’s expression turned ugly. He raised his walking stick and started hitting Xing Yuyun’s back with it.

Everything happened so suddenly that even Su Wanwan was shocked.

Huo Qinyu’s heart broke when she saw her son getting hit and she could not help but say, “Dad, you already taught Yuyun a lesson in the afternoon-”

“I was simply implementing our family rules then. Now, I am teaching him how to be a man!” Old Master Xing had a stern expression on his face. He looked at Xing Yuyun and growled, “Do you now know what you did wrong?”

Xing Yuyun still refused to speak. He gritted his teeth, sweating from the pain.

Su Wanwan had not had much contact with the Xing family before this, but she knew that Old Master Xing was a veteran General who had retired from the army. He did not show any mercy or leniency at all when he hit Xing Yuyun, and most people would not have been able to endure it.

She glanced at Su Xueqin and realized that her grandfather was completely indifferent to it.

Slam!

Old Master Xing hit Xing Yuyun again.

There were varying expressions on everyone’s faces, but no one dared to stop him. Xing Yuyun got hit about a dozen times, until a voice called out, “That’s enough.”

Old Mistress Xing stared at her husband evenly. “He might die if you continue hitting him.”

“Pfft.” Su Xueqin snorted and said coldly, “He is a young man. Do you really think he will die from getting hit twenty times with a stick?”

Su Wanwan was silent.

Old Master Xing withdrew his walking stick and took a deep breath before saying, “The reason I am here today is because I want to give my in-laws an explanation and an apology on behalf of the Xing family.”

At that moment, Xing Guozhi handed a document to Su Wanwan under everyone’s watchful gaze.

“This is one of our properties in Sello Park. We would like to offer this to Wanwan as compensation.”

Su Wanwan was taken aback.

Everyone else was also surprised. Earlier that day, Xing Yuyun had told Old Master Xing that he wanted to dissolve his marriage contract with Su Yanyan. Old Master Xing had lost his temper and flung a teapot at Xing Yuyun’s face, seriously injuring him.

Wasn’t Old Master Xing here tonight because of Su Yanyan’s matter?

Just as Su Yanyan thought she would not be able to remain quiet anymore, Old Master Xing spoke up again: “The Xing family will hold a wedding ceremony for Yuyun and Yanyan on the 20th. From now on, Yanyan will be the granddaughter-in-law of the Xing family.”

He had injured his own grandson to win the approval of his enemy, and since Xing Yuyun had suffered considerably, it would prove Old Master Xing’s sincerity. Su Xueqin raised his brows and did not say anything else.

While they waited for Huo Qinyu to finish tending to her son’s injuries in the guest room, Jiang Yi discussed the details of the wedding with Old Mistress Xing. Everyone in the living room was in total harmony, as though nothing had happened earlier.

Five minutes later, Su Wanwan found a reason to excuse herself and went upstairs.

***

Her bedroom had been completely cleaned out by the maid.

Su Wanwan sat on the sofa as she scrolled through her cell phone. Suddenly, she received a call from an unknown number.

“Hello?”

“Hello, is this Wanwan? This is Grandma on the line.”

It was Old Mistress Huo who was calling her!

“Hello, Grandma!” Su Wanwan hurriedly greeted her.

Old Mistress Huo chuckled warmly and asked, “Wanwan, are you free tomorrow?”

“Is there anything you need, Grandma?”

“I just called Ah Shen and he told me that he will only be back in a few days as he has some matters to settle. The villa at Tianquan Imperial Court is so big, so I was worried about you living there alone.”

Finally, Old Mistress Huo got straight to the point: “Can you come over here to eat with me tomorrow?”

“Okay-”

“Perfect! I will send the driver there to pick you up tomorrow morning. By the way, you can add me on WeChat later. This is my cell phone number.”

“Okay.” Su Wanwan felt that this old lady was really very fashionable and trendy. She was even using WeChat!

After ending the call, Su Wanwan saved the phone number before adding it as a contact on WeChat.

Su Wanwan was stunned. Old Mistress Huo’s WeChat username was ‘A Woman Who Will Never Admit Defeat’!

“Su Wanwan.” A sudden voice made Su Wanwan’s good mood disappear instantly.

She raised her head and said coldly, “I realize that some people are quite thick-skinned, but didn’t your mother ever tell you that you should knock on the door before entering other people’s rooms?”
