Su Yan was in a good mood as she started humming. Coincidentally, Chu Tao also pushed open the door and walked over.

She looked into the door and seemed a little surprised that Miss Su Qiao had left so quickly. Usually, when Miss Su Qiao came at this time, she would leave after having lunch.

Miss Su Qiao must have asked for something from Miss Su Yan and didn’t get what she came here for.

Chu Tao could not help but feel angry. She felt sorry for Su Yan and forgot that Su Yan did not like her to say bad things about Su Qiao. She could not help but say,

“Miss, when Miss Su Qiao Comes, please don’t give her anything else. Your jewelry were all specially chosen by the Madam.”

Seeing Chu Tao’s heartache for her, Su Yan felt a warmth in her heart. She knew that Hatsumomo must have misunderstood.

“I didn’t give her anything today.”

Chu Tao regretted the moment she said those words. Miss had already distanced herself from her for the past few days. It would be bad if she offended miss again.

Who knew that miss did not have any intention of blaming her. Instead, she explained to her. Chu Tao felt that her miss was really sensible.

Although she was about the same age as Su Yan, Su Yan had been raised to look innocent since she was young, so there were many things that she could not see clearly. Chu Tao was most worried that miss had been deceived that day.

“That’s good. Chu Tao did not mean anything by it. She was just worried that miss had been deceived by someone with ulterior motives.”

Looking at Chu Tao’s sincere look for her good, Su Yan was both touched and guilty. Regardless of whether Chu Tao’s intentions were good or not, she could not completely trust her now. However, ever since she was young, Chu Tao had really protected her very well.

However, she was not obedient, so she had played a good hand into a bad one. Later on, she had really been deceived miserably.

However, it was still not too late.

Su Yan asked Chu Tao to find out where her grandfather and father were.

When she found out that her grandfather and father had been in the study for the whole morning, Su Yan knew that they were discussing the letter.

Just as she was about to go over, her grandfather sent someone over. He said that he wanted her to go to the study and ask her about something.

This was exactly what Su Yan wanted. She just wanted to hear what her grandfather was going to do. At the same time, she wanted to remind her grandfather that second uncle’s family was not the only ones who wanted to deal with them. There were even more powerful enemies behind them.

Grandfather Su and father Su had been in the study for the entire morning. They had also thought that the Su family’s second branch alone would not be able to come up with such a plan, let alone use this excuse of treason to punish the Su family’s main branch.

It was estimated that the second branch alone would not even be able to get this letter.

When Su Yan arrived at the study, grandfather Su and father su first greeted her warmly. Especially when they found out that Su Qiao had just gone to look for her, they were so worried that their eyeballs almost popped out.

According to their investigation, the second branch and their family had been attacking the Su family for a long time. The more they investigated, the more Old Master Su and the others felt disappointed. For so many years, the Su family had treated them kindly, they did not expect that they would harbor a grudge against the Su family. They wanted to take the lives of everyone in the Su family.

Su Yan wanted her grandfather and father to be on high alert against the second concubine and her family. Of course, she would not hide it. Naturally, she told them everything that Su Qiao had said.

This included the fact that Su Qiao had specially come today to ask her if she had put the book in the study and the fact that she had asked for her hairpin.

Grandpa Su and his father looked at each other and were shocked by Su Qiao’s shamelessness..
