Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: End less Fantasy Translation
Xing Guozhi and Huo Qinyu were both visibly shocked.
Even the usually calm Jiang Yi was startled. She looked at her daughter, only to find Su Yanyan sitting there dazedly, her face almost as white as paper.
“Yuyun, such words should not be spoken lightly, Yanyan she…”
“Auntie.” Xing Yuyun interrupted, “I’ve already spoken to Yanyan about this, she’s aware of it. The reason I came here today is to clear things up with all of you elders.”
“Nonsense!” Su Yuntang couldn’t bear it, filled with immense anger, he pointed at Xing Yuyun and scolded, “What do you see Yanyan as? What do you see our Su Family as? Hurting one of my granddaughters wasn’t enough, now you want to break off the engagement too?”
Jiang Yi also said, “Yuyun, my daughter is still young, she doesn’t understand, she doesn’t know to be considerate…”
“This has nothing to do with that.” Xing Yuyun interrupted coldly again, “I simply feel that we’re not suitable for each other.”
“Then who are you suitable for? Su Wanwan!” Su Yanyan blurted out.
Xing Yuyun kept his face cold, not answering, not even looking at her.
Truth be told, ever since he stepped into the Su Family home today, he never truly looked at her.
At this, Su Yanyan’s anger was instantly ignited, she looked at Su Wanwan, “It’s you, it’s all you, you’re doing it on purpose, aren’t you? You clearly know that Brother Yuyun doesn’t like you, he’s just feeling guilty and doesn’t want to hurt you, why do you still cling to him? Mouthing off about rejection while being sneaky behind our backs, do you have no shame!”
“Su Yanyan, aren’t you being ironic by saying this?” Su Wanwan’s tone was cool and mocking, “It’s you who stole my fiance, I kindly didn’t argue with you, yet you dare to accuse me first and play the victim? There really is a saying that’s right, a lowly person is always melodramatic.”
“Lowly? Can I be as lowly as you? Can you dare to say where you were out messing about last night?”
“None of your damn business.” Su Wanwan couldn’t be bothered to argue with her, “Your future in-laws are present, can you watch your manners?”
She thought that, at this moment, Su Yanyan was like a rabid dog, biting anyone she could catch.
Earlier, she had somewhat restrained herself in the face of the elders, it seems now that she’s about to be dumped by Xing Yuyun, she can’t keep up the pretense.
Su Yanyan stood there, anger causing her entire body to tremble slightly.
Jiang Yi tried to hold her, but was swatted away. She stormed up to the coffee table, feverishly flipping open the newspaper that lay there.
Under everyone’s watchful eyes, she pointed at the opened newspaper and said, “You’ve made it to the papers with your exploits with men, now the entire Nancheng knows about your scandal! Su Wanwan, this time you’ve truly shamed our Su Family to the ends of the earth!”
“Yanyan, what nonsense are you spouting!” Su Xueqin was shocked.
“I’m not spouting nonsense, she went to a club to have an affair with a man last night, all the pictures were taken and printed in the newspaper, if you don’t believe me, look for yourselves!”
Su Wanwan was the first to pick up the newspaper.
In glaring red letters, the headline read: “Shocking! Nancheng’s Premier Entertainment Club Suspected of Engaging in Prostitution!”
Below that, thick layers of reportage, interspersed with several pictures of police inspections and suspects being arrested, one of which showed her with the attendant in the elevator.
“What does this prove?” Su Wanwan flung the newspaper back, “Last night, I went to the mansion with Weiyi to watch a movie. I had a bit too much to drink and we just rested in the VIP room upstairs for the night. There’s no evidence, just a picture from a lift? I think it’s your brain that’s been crushed, you’re in the late stages of retardation, aren’t you? You wish I was in some scandal, don’t you?”
“Flies won’t land on an un-cracked egg, if you didn’t do it, how could there be a picture?” Su Yanyan seized this point and wouldn’t let go.
Su Wanwan found her anger steadily rising, she clenched her fists, trying to maintain her composure, “Last night, I was with Weiyi the whole time…”
“Mo Weiyi is your best friend, of course she’d side with you!”
The living room fell into absolute silence.
No one had expected events to unfold this way.
Su Yuntang’s face was dark as could be.
It’s a familial misfortune!
What’s even more embarrassing…it happened in front of the Xing Family.
He stared fiercely at Su Wanwan, his face pale, lips tight, even his nostrils were trembling…
Back then, he should have fought tooth and nail against Su Xueqin, not allowing this troublemaker to remain in the Su Family!
For twenty years, she had been like a thorn in his side, piercing his eyes every time he saw her, reminding him of the foolish past!
He should have had the heart to strangle her to death, bringing it all to an end…
“…Sir.” Auntie Yang’s voice suddenly sounded weakly, “A guest has arrived.”
She was afraid, not daring to raise her head and behind her, stood a tall and straight man..
