Chapter 862: Regret

Even though the boss was holding her, Grandma Yao was still very emotional.

She never expected to see Su Changsheng again in her lifetime, her family’s son-in-law, the person she respected the most back then.

But as she thought about the events of that year, Grandma Yao trembled with anger—if it weren’t for him, she wouldn’t have... if it weren’t for him, the young lady wouldn’t have been separated from her for so many years.

If it weren’t for him, how could her Rumei have married Gu Chunhai and then lost her life so early?

All because of this person in front of her!

"Haha..." Grandma Yao laughed bitterly, her eyes filled with sarcasm as she looked at Su Changsheng. "Judging by your appearance, you’ve had a good life over the years, haven’t you?"

"Ah, Su Ziqiao’s grandfather," before Su Changsheng could speak, Grandma Yao continued to mock him, "Having such a good grandson, your days must have been wonderful."

"Little Qiao..." Su Changsheng called her hesitantly.

"Don’t call my name." Grandma Yao said coldly, "You don’t deserve to call our names, you don’t deserve it."

Tears flowed as she shook her head.

Back then, how much she respected their family’s son-in-law, and now, how disappointed she was.

So many nights, when Grandma Yao woke up from nightmares, she often wondered, if she ever saw Su Changsheng again, what would she do?

She once thought she would hate him enough to kill him.

To avenge her own dirty past and for the young lady of their family whose whereabouts were unknown.

But now that this person was standing right in front of her, she found herself unable to make a move.

Even though he was the son-in-law, he had always been a tall, brother-like presence.

"Su? Haha, no wonder." Grandma Yao laughed and shook her head.

No wonder she and Yao Zhenjiang had searched for so many years without any news.

Even when seeing Su Ziqiao, feeling he resembled him, they never thought in that direction, "So you married the young lady without using your real name."

"Su Changsheng, how many things have you deceived us about?" Grandma Yao sneered as she stepped back two steps.

Yao Zhenjiang, feeling sorry for her, supported her, and she shook her head at him, "I’m fine, he isn’t dead yet, how could I be in trouble?"

"I... I had no choice back then." Su Changsheng said with a bitter smile.

"Oh, such a nice ’no choice.’" Grandma Yao said sarcastically, "I regret it so much, I shouldn’t have been that Cui Yingying. If our young lady hadn’t met you, we wouldn’t have..."

That year, she was only thirteen, at an age curious about the world outside. That day, she went out with the young lady, saw some delicious candied hawthorn and wanted to eat it, and the young lady, who always spoiled her like a sister, indulged her.

This often aroused jealousy from Little Butterfly, who was a few years older than her.

That day, Little Butterfly was supposed to go out with the young lady, but she had a stomachache at the last minute, so the young lady took her out instead, never expecting that she would get lost because of a string of candied hawthorn.

And because someone happened to request aid, she lost the young lady as well.

Later, it was Su Changsheng who rescued the young lady and brought her to find her.

At the moment she saw the young lady, Grandma Yao felt reborn, eternally grateful to Su Changsheng, who was not only the young lady’s lifesaver but also hers.

Later, every time the young lady went shopping, she would take her along, sneaking to meet Su Changsheng, of course.

If, if she had known all the things that would happen afterward, she would have risked her life to stop the young lady from seeing Su Changsheng.

She certainly wouldn’t have let the young lady fall for him and marry him.
