Chapter 29
The two elderly people stood at the door, each holding one of Sheng Yujie’s hands, asking about the well-being of the elders in the family.
Although Sheng Yujie was unhappy, he could only endure it and politely answer their questions.
As the time was almost up, he slowly steered the conversation towards the main topic.
“Elders, I’m getting married.”
Sheng’s grandfather smiled, “Congratulations, we will definitely give you a red packet when the time comes.”
“However, my fiancée is facing some problems now, and I would like to ask Grandpa for help.”
Sure enough, nothing happens without a reason.
The old man, who had been involved in the business world when he was younger, could see through people’s intentions with just one glance.
It had been hundreds of years since their last visit, and now they came with a purpose.
“What’s the matter?”
The old man’s attitude cooled slightly.
Sheng Yujie introduced Luo Minghui and Rui Tianfeng who were standing behind him.
“These are the parents of my fiancée.”
Luo Minghui and Rui Tianfeng quickly stepped forward, bowing respectfully with smiles on their faces.
“My fiancée was set up by her sister while she was at the mall a few days ago and is now in prison. Can Grandpa help to save her?”
The old man’s gaze drifted to a familiar figure in the distance that seemed a bit blurry.
“Since she was set up, just find evidence to get her out.”
“Her opponents have been suppressing us all along, and we’ve tried everything.”
The old man withdrew his gaze and asked, “Although the power of your branch may not be comparable to the main family’s, it should not be underestimated. Is there anyone here who dares to provoke the Sheng family?”
“Her sister grew up in the countryside and only returned to the city recently, but as soon as she came back, she didn’t behave. She hooked up with an older man and framed her own sister into prison.”
“Is there such a vicious person?” The old man sounded a bit angry, his voice full of authority.
“Which woman is so wicked? I would like to have a word with her.”
Seeing the old man’s determination, the three of them showed a proud look on their faces.
“She’s right here.”
Seeing the old man’s response, Rui Tianfeng wanted to pull Luo Wan over.
When she came to Luo Wan’s side, she looked at her triumphantly and whispered, “If you don’t drink the toast, you’ll have to drink the penalty. Sheng’s grandfather used to be decisive and ruthless in his youth. Let’s see how you beg for mercy later.”
After saying this, she saw the look in the other’s eyes as if she were looking at a fool.
“How do you know that Sheng’s grandfather will definitely help you?”
Uncle Wang, who was about the same age as Luo Wan, clicked his tongue and said, “Don’t get too cocky. Let’s see how long this old man can protect you. Surrendering to such a man is really beneath one’s dignity.”
Upon hearing this, Luo Wan had no reaction, but Uncle Wang was visibly startled.
The lady is not someone he can imagine, and besides, they have always treated her like their own daughter. How could they have such thoughts?
“Madam, please speak with some respect.”
“I’ve done it, and I won’t take it back.” Rui Tianfeng remained indifferent, continuing unabated, “Tell us, what does it feel like to sleep with an old man when you’re so young?”
The conversation became increasingly absurd.
Uncle Wang couldn’t bear it anymore and immediately called the security on his phone.
As Uncle Wang had previously served as the steward of the old mansion, he was quite familiar with everything there.
Rui Tianfeng overheard the conversation and frowned in disdain.
“Still putting on airs in front of Mr. Sheng. It’s really ridiculous.”
Luo Wan chuckled coldly.
“Soon you’ll find out who’s really ridiculous.”
After finishing the call, Uncle Wang, after consulting Luo Wan, went straight to Mr. Sheng.
“Mr. Sheng, someone just disrespected the lady. I’ve already called the security.”
At this moment, Rui Tianfeng followed Luo Wan and also walked over.
Seeing this, her eyes widened in surprise.
Madam, which madam?
She clearly only spoke to that woman.
In their confusion, the two elderly people finally saw Luo Wan’s face clearly.
Her originally polite and distant demeanor immediately blossomed into a smile.
“Darling granddaughter-in-law, you’re still here.”
The two elderly people looked at Luo Wan from head to toe, overflowing with affection.
They completely disregarded the shocked expressions of the other three.
The attentive old lady noticed that Luo Wan’s face still showed traces of lingering sadness.
She asked, “What happened, dear? Who bullied you? Grandma will ensure justice for you.”
Mr. Sheng, afraid of appearing weak, also spoke up, “Whoever dares to bully our dear Luo Wan, I won’t let them off lightly.”
No one had ever defended her so unconditionally before, and Luo Wan was deeply moved.
She didn’t want to burden the two elderly people with her troubles, but when she looked at the three people in front of her…
Since these people had caused a scene in front of them, she had nothing to worry about.
So she decided to enjoy the feeling of having her elders supporting her.
So she softly murmured,
He said, “I was about to get into the car just now, but these people stopped me and wouldn’t let me leave. We argued, and then you came out.”
Mr. Sheng was immediately furious.
Thinking about how these people had just slandered his beloved granddaughter-in-law, he was even more enraged.
He questioned, “Was the bad woman you mentioned just now referring to Wanwan?”
Sheng Yujie looked different from what he had expected, dumbfounded.
After a moment, he quickly came up with an excuse.
“Grandfather, this woman is not simple. Don’t let her deceive you.”
“She not only drugged her own sister but also had illicit relationships with other men.”
Luo Minghui chimed in, “Yes, Grandfather. I know my daughter. She has always been worthless and enjoys mingling with people outside. Look.”
Pointing at Uncle Wang, he pretended to be distressed and said, “She even brought men here.”
“I feel ashamed to have such a daughter, but my other daughter is innocent. She was maliciously framed and ended up in jail. Please, Grandfather, help us.”
No matter what Sheng Yujie and Rui Tianfeng said, Luo Wan could disregard it. But seeing her father tarnishing her reputation in front of so many people was truly chilling.
“Shut up.”
Mr. Sheng clenched his fists in anger. Pointing at Uncle Wang, he said to Luo Minghui indignantly, “You said he’s Wanwan’s…”
He couldn’t bring himself to say the last two words.
Luo Minghui nodded, about to continue slandering.
But Mr. Sheng cut in first.
“You should be grateful that you’re Wanwan’s father. Otherwise, based on what you just said, I would have beaten you to a pulp.”
At this point, the security guards arrived. Mr. Sheng immediately ordered,
“Get these two out of here and make sure they never come near again.”
The security guards complied, escorting the two away into the distance.
As he watched them leave, Mr. Sheng muttered, “But just because I didn’t lay a hand on them doesn’t mean someone else won’t.”
Luo Minghui and Rui Tianfeng both looked pale.
Their expensive and neat clothes were now disheveled.
In a place where no one could see her, Luo Wan waved her hand dismissively at Rui Tianfeng.
With a stiff expression, she said, “Goodbye, ignorant Lady Luo.”
And seeing Mr. Sheng defend Luo Wan like that, Sheng Yujie couldn’t help but feel a sense of dread.
Thinking about how Mr. Sheng had just called Luo Wan his granddaughter-in-law, he had a bad feeling in his heart.
