Su Xi knew that Su Yu held grudges, but he didn’t expect him to be so vengeful. He reached out and gave Su Yu a pat, shaking his head with a wry smile, “You, this child.”
Before long, Yang Shanshan was brought over, accompanied by Su Qin.
“Father-in-law, did you ask Shanshan over for something?” Su Qin asked as he looked at Yang Zhenwei and the others.
Shanshan still had injuries on her body, and calling her over seemed a bit excessive.
Yang Zhenwei looked at Su Qin, amusement in his eyes, “Su Qin, are you really naive, or pretending to be? Don’t you know what Yang Shanshan has done?”
“Shanshan didn’t do anything while recovering in the restaurant,” Su Qin frowned.
“Is that so with Yang Shanshan? It seems you’re doing disgusting things without letting Su Qin know. Quite unexpected,” Yang Zhenwei didn’t expect Yang Shanshan to keep everything from Su Qin this time, which surprised him.
Yang Shanshan looked calm as she gazed at Yang Zhenwei, knowing the purpose of bringing her here.
“Just sending some women to your son, nothing to make a fuss about,” Yang Shanshan said nonchalantly.
“Oh? Then I’d like to ask where you found these women?” Yang Zhenwei looked at Yang Shanshan with a sharp gaze.
Yang Shanshan didn’t continue speaking. Seeing her expression, where would Yang Zhenwei not understand? She just didn’t want to talk about it.
Su Qin felt a chill as he looked at Yang Shanshan, “Father-in-law, what do you mean by this?”
She actually kept something from him and didn’t tell him what she had done?
“Father-in-law, where did these girls come from?” Su Qin asked with a trembling voice.
“Where did they come from? They’re from a brothel.”
Su Qin’s last hope in his heart vanished. He couldn’t believe what he was hearing. For the first time, he got angry with Yang Shanshan, “Yang Shanshan, are you out of your mind? Why would you do this to Xiao Yu?”
He could understand her intention of arranging women for their son, but finding women from a brothel to give to their son—was Yang Shanshan insane?
Did she ever think about what people would say about Su Yu if he accepted those women and it became known in the capital? How would outsiders mock Su Yu?
Su Qin asked with a trembling voice, “Yang Shanshan, have you considered Su Yu’s reputation?”
“This is the price for not obeying,” Yang Shanshan said confidently, looking at Su Qin.
She wouldn’t allow Su Yu to escape from her control. Su Yu had to be held firmly in her hands.
With a loud slap, Su Qin couldn’t bear her indifferent attitude any longer and struck her across the face.
Shaking with anger, Su Qin said, “I thought I told you so much, and you absorbed none of it. Yet, you still choose to humiliate Su Yu like this? Yang Shanshan, you are really something.”
Yang Shanshan, turned aside by the slap, had a faint taste of blood in her mouth. She licked the corner of her mouth and turned to look at Su Qin, “You actually dared to hit me? Su Qin, you have indeed changed, becoming one of them.”
Su Qin looked at Yang Shanshan with a bitter smile. It turned out that in Yang Shanshan’s mind, anyone who didn’t do things according to her wishes was considered against her.
“Do you think what you did, Yang Shanshan, is right?” Su Xi suddenly spoke up.
He had been somewhat against what Su Yu did before, but now, seeing Yang Shanshan’s unrepentant attitude, he had no regrets.
Although Yang Shanshan didn’t say anything, her eyes when looking at Su Xi spoke volumes.
“Alright, since you put it that way, then it’s settled. This is Shi Xuan, a noble concubine I’ve prepared for Su Qin. I will take care of everything that needs to be done with the authorities,” Su Xi said coldly.
Once, regardless of what Yang Shanshan did, Su Xi never thought to interfere in their marital affairs. However, Yang Shanshan’s actions towards Su Yu this time had completely infuriated Su Xi.
“Don’t even think about it. Don’t forget the ancestral teachings of the Su family,” Yang Shanshan gritted her teeth.
Su Xi’s words made everyone’s expressions extremely strange.
“Yang Shanshan, everyone present can say this, except you. Do you now remember the ancestral teachings of the Su family?” Now she remembered to mention the Su family’s ancestral teachings?
“When you brought these people here, did you ever think about the ancestral teachings of the Su family? You didn’t think about it yourself, and yet you want others to follow it. Things that you haven’t considered, you want others to implement. Today, I’ll say it here; your opposition is useless. Even if Su Qin opposes, it’s useless,” Su Xi looked at Yang Shanshan, giving her no room for retort.
Yang Shanshan didn’t listen to Su Xi but instead looked at Su Qin, “Are you also planning to take over this woman?”
“I…”
“Su Qin, you said there would only be me. What is this now?” Not giving Su Qin a chance to speak, Yang Shanshan began angrily accusing.
Su Qin swallowed the words that were about to come out. Since when did he not even have the opportunity to speak?
“Shanshan, both of us need to calm down. If you think everything you did to Su Yu is justified, and you haven’t done anything wrong, then there’s nothing for us to talk about,” Su Qin didn’t refute Yang Shanshan’s words. He didn’t admit or explain.
Su Qin knew that his opposition wouldn’t matter. Since Su Xi had made a decision, no matter how he argued, this woman would still end up in his backyard.
Why waste words on this?
“I know you’ve been tired of it for a long time. No need to say these grandiose words,” Yang Shanshan couldn’t listen to anything now. She only knew that Su Qin had betrayed her and their past agreements.
“Think whatever you want.”
Wang Jinhe looked at Su Qin in surprise. This person was Su Yu’s father. What was his situation now? Did he realize his mistake? Did he want to reconcile with Su Yu and the others?
Turning his head to look at Su Yu, he saw him silently watching the drama unfold. Wang Jinhe understood that no matter what Su Qin did now to make amends, Su Yu would not trust or forgive this man.
Some things, once they happened, talking about other things later was of no use.
Belated favor might not be needed by others.
Su Qin finished speaking and turned to look at Su Yu, “Xiao Yu, I’m sorry for these years.”
Su Yu didn’t say anything. He pulled Wang Jinhe and turned away, not looking at Su Qin even once throughout the whole process.
