Chapter 234: Give an inch and they’ll take a mile. Chapter 234: Give an inch and they’ll take a mile. Su Hongde nced at her and saw the eagerness on Su Xinyan’s face, smiled gently, and then returned his gaze to the tablet.
“He just signed with a newpany, but it seems it’s not very famous; the inte is already in an uproar.”
“Isn’t he just ruining his own brand? Signing with some unknown littlepany, isn’t he afraid he’s not fading away fast enough?” Tan Lirong said disdainfully.
“Not necessarily, now thatpany is known by the wholework, isn’t it?”
Wen Peipei’s elderly eyes flickered with a shrewd glint.
The smile on Su Xinyan’s face suddenly froze.
“Whichpany is it?”
“It’s called something like Zisu… What’s wrong?”
Su Hongde keenly noticed the change in Su Xinyan’s expression.
Su Xinyan tugged at her stiff smile, looking very unwell.
Zisu.
Wen Peipei and the others might not know, but how could she not know Zisu was Ye Zhichen’spany.
That bitch Su Ran!
She was determined to oppose her!
Moreover, with the Xu Family’s news and the signing newsing out, it had effectively suppressed the scandal surrounding her!
That bitch had yed a good hand.
Su Xinyan was very unwilling!
“With these news storiesing out, it has indeed overshadowed the scandal around Xiao Ran, which is quite good,”
Tan Lirong offered understandingly, presenting herself like a kind and benevolent stepmother.
In reality, she wished the people online would tear Su Ran apart. Yaosang Qianyue’s daughter should be condemned by thousands, she thought.
Thinking of Yaosang Qianyue, Tan Lirong felt her teeth itch with hatred. That cheap woman was just like her daughter, always carrying a cold, aloof, and arrogant demeanor.
They never regarded her and her daughter with any consideration, equally detestable.
“From now on, don’t mention that beast at home, act as if she’s dead; the Su family has no such person anymore.”
At the mention of Su Ran, Wen Peipei’s old face immediately fell, and herplexion became even more somber.
Su Xinyan curled her lips.
“Who did you say is dead?”
Right then, an old and weighty voice traveled from the staircase.
Su Xinyan stiffened at the sound and, looking toward its source, she saw Su Zhongyuan, who seldom joined them for meals, suddenly appearing, her eyes lighting up a bit.
“Grandfather,”
she said joyfully.
Wen Peipei’s face slightly stiffened and darkened further.
“I’m asking you, who did you say is dead!”
Seeing the situation turning sour, Su Hongde immediately intervened to smooth things over.
“Dad, Mom didn’t mean that. It’s just that, recently… Xiao Ran has been too much, that’s why Mom…”
“Shut your mouth!”
The harsh low roar scared Su Hongde into immobility.
“Why are you yelling at Hongde? What, can’t I even speak badly of her? Look at all the terrible things that wretch has done. She’s intentionally opposing me. She wants to cut ties with the family, right? I’ll make it easy for her!”
“Make it easy for her? Her own sister stole her boyfriend, her real father is worse than her stepfather, and her own grandmother pushed her into the fire pit–is that how you ‘make it easy’ for her?”
The faces of everyone present changed at once!
Su Zhongyuan walked over slowly, his expression dark.
“When you’re questioning what Xiao Ran has done, you should also ask yourself what you’ve all done, pushing your own granddaughter to a man with a terrible reputation and expecting her to repay you with kindness, utterly overreaching!”
Wen Peipei suddenly looked up, anger in on her aged face.
“What do you mean I’m overreaching? She’s not an innocent person anyway, what right does she have to despise anyone? It’s her fortune that the Xu Family would consider her. Instead of feeling grateful, she opposes me at every turn. If she’s not a beast, what is she?”
