Chapter 819 - Each Bearing Ulterior Motives (6)

At this moment, while he was being beaten up in front of the younger generation, he was so angry inwardly but he still did not dare to speak or retaliate. Who knew what was wrong with him? He clearly knew that the Old Master cared so much about this new little b*stard, yet he still promised his wife to give her that bracelet.

His wife had said that with Auntie Su’s personality, she would not come and cause them trouble. She would definitely keep the peace. However, no one had expected that the usual soft-tempered old woman would actually take the lead to demand an answer.

Cao Yunxian had expected everything, but not for the Old Master to care so much about this granddaughter. Upon hearing Huo Ci cheer the old man on from the side, she was so furious that her liver hurt. When she saw her husband get beaten, she hurriedly ran over to dissuade him. “Father, don’t hit him anymore. It’s all my fault. If you want to punish someone, come at me. If I had come to get the box myself, this wouldn’t have happened.”

Huo Xiao would not hit his daughter-in-law or scold her, but he could hit his own son and scold him however he wanted. “You took the wrong box. As your father, did I cause you to become a blind man? Let me see if you’re blind.”

Huo Pei’s face had already contorted in pain. He was different from Huo Ci. When the Old Master hit him, he did not dodge. He just stood there. “Father, it’s my fault. It’s all my fault. I’m blind. I’ll apologize to Sheng Sheng right now. I’ll wear it myself, alright?”

Cao Yunxian knew the Old Master’s temper. Average people could not persuade him. She looked at Su Xiyin pleadingly. “Mother, quickly, help me to dissuade him. Father is going to beat Huo Pei to death. It’s all my fault. After all, I just had to like that kind of box. In the future, I won’t use a rosewood box no matter what I buy.”

Now, she finally knew that this new little b*stard was the Old Master’s favorite. No one could touch him. It seemed like she had to be more careful in the future.

Exactly what kind of drug had this little b*stard fed the Old Master? Why was the Old Master so biased toward her? Even if everyone in the family was combined, they would probably not compare to her!

“Sheng Sheng, Sheng Sheng, your aunt is begging you. Please say something for Fifth Aunt. I really didn’t do it on purpose. Aunt can’t even like you enough. Why would I bear such vicious intentions and give you that kind of thing?” After begging Su Xiyin, Cao Yunxian looked for Ling Sheng. “Otherwise, why don’t Aunt kneel down to you?”

Ling Sheng thought, then, why don’t you kneel? You’re all talk. Why aren’t you kneeling? On the surface, she was polite and humble, “What are you talking about, Fifth Aunt?”

However, Huo Ci was very straight to the point. He gave Cao Yunxian a sideways look. “Kneel! What are you waiting for?”

Cao Yunxian gritted her teeth in anger. Sixth Brother had always been a reckless person who had no respect for everyone. She steeled her heart and made a show of kneeling. She thought that, as a junior, Ling Sheng would definitely not let an elder kneel before her.

Hence, Ling Sheng pretended that she was going to help her, but her hand slipped.

Cao Yunxian had made up her mind and felt that Ling Sheng would definitely stop her. She had not expected the little b*stard in front of her to simply brush against her arm. There was a sudden pain in her knees, and she knelt down right in front of her instantly. Amidst her anger, her vision darkened.

“Fifth Aunt, what are you doing? Are you trying to shorten my life? I can’t accept this. Get up quickly.” Ling Sheng presented a frightened appearance and bent down hurriedly to help her up.

Out of the corner of her eye, she clearly saw a jade bead roll all the way from her feet to her father’s side. Xiaoqi picked it up nimbly and hid it to destroy the evidence.
