Chapter 429: Chapter 439: Learned Bad Habits in Just a Few Days
When he first found out he had a granddaughter, he had braced himself for the worst. Thankfully, his wifeâs protection had kept his precious granddaughter safe and sound. Otherwise, he would have been too ashamed to meet his wife after closing his eyes.
âDespite the fact that the Qin Family lived off Qin Youminâs support, they still treated him so cruelly in the end.â Su Huaiâan was indignant, the more he learned about his cousinâs ordeal, the more he wanted to treat his cousin better.
Moreover, he had always been fond of his cousin, and ever since he learned about Sheng Ningâs identity, Su Huaiâan had promptly included her in his protective scope.
âNow that Xiao Hai has already dealt out appropriate punishment, you all should stop harping on it.â Mr. Su was more magnanimous, and Su Jiang was more like him in that regard.
Su Haiâs personality, on the other hand, resembled Grandma Suâs, the old Shanghai tycoonâs daughter who managed to make her mark in high society in Scotland at a young ageânot without a considerable amount of skill.
Su Hai stroked his chin, âThe most detestable in the Qin Family is Second Aunt Qin, but as for Qin Youde, for the sake of Qin Youmin, Iâve let him go.â
However, his future in the village wouldnât be easy! What Su Hai didnât say was that he hadnât released Qin Youde for Qin Youminâs sake at all, but merely to comfort the old man. His main reason was that Qin Youde hadnât gone as mad as Second Aunt Qin, and hadnât tried to snatch their Su family heirloom when they lost Ningning.
This showed that Qin Youde still had a conscience; after all, he had sneakily placed the bracelet on the child.
âGood! You did the right thing,â the old man nodded in approval. âIâve told you many times to leave some leeway in your actions but you never listen. I didnât expect you to actually show me through your actions.â
Su Huaiâan laughed to himself, he didnât believe his uncle would make any real gestures, nor did he believe that his uncle had let Qin Youde go for anyoneâs sake.
Not even for the sake of the heavens above.
âDad, how can you say that? How could I dare not listen to your words?â Su Hai shamelessly admitted.
âHave you properly thanked the Sheng family?â Mr. Su was full of gratitude towards the Sheng family.
âThanks canât simply express it! And the Sheng family has a big opinion of us, especially about my sister.â Su Hai now got a headache every time he mentioned Su Yun; the moment they got off the train, Su Yun had fallen ill.
It was true she was unwell, but it wasnât to the extent of collapsing. He also knew that she was psychologically distressed. But for once he hadnât planned to comfort her or coax her, as she had been spoiled for too many years.
One has to bear the consequences of their own actions; no one can shoulder the blame for others forever.
âTell me the specifics!â
Su Hai then recounted in detail his visit to the Sheng family, including his promise to Sheng Laosan not to reveal the matter concerning Qin Youmin to Sheng Ning.
After he finished speaking, the old man gave him a beating.
âLook at you, you canât even handle a small matter; what use are you to me? Couldnât you beg Daddy Sheng for forgiveness? Are you brainless? I think you are brainless indeed.â Mr. Suâs mood had been fluctuating greatly recently, and his health had declined a lot from before.
He was supposed to be resting in bed, but when he heard that Su Hai had returned, he felt like flying up from his bed.
And the disobedient son had brought such sad news, truly useless.
âGrandpa, itâs okay to scold Uncle, but please, donât get angry,â Su Huaiâan quickly tried to console.
Su Hai glared at him; the kid had gone bad in just a few days, daring to undermine him to his face.
