"But her belly is already so big..."
"Her child hasn’t been born yet, but that Yin Junjie, you all saw him, that child is almost ten years old, and because of Cousin, he beca a single-parent child!"
Yin Shixiu stood aside, watching the old couple with calm eyes.
It was clear that the old couple didn’t have any bad intentions. They spoke for Guo Tong just because all parents have the sa heart.
He didn’t know if Su Xiaong, facing such a situation, could still insist on having Guo Tong roll back to Shanghai.
After all... Su Xiaong was much softer-hearted compared to him.
Even though she had a strong sense of right and wrong, her heart was heavy with compassion.
She valued emotions, not only her own but also the feelings of her grandparents, parents, and relatives.
To Su Jifang, she might not be so indecisive, but behind Su Jifang was her own grandfather.
Back when they held the wedding in Bali Island, Grandpa Su t Su Jifang, who was traveling there at that ti, and was even more excited than attending his granddaughter’s wedding.
This was sothing both he and Su Xiaong saw clearly at the ti.
"Xiao ng... Auntie wants to say a few words to you. Listen, and if you think Auntie is being unreasonable, just consider it the ramblings of an old person, okay?"
"Auntie, just say whatever you want."
Su Xiaong took a deep breath, only to feel her ankle hurt more than before.
Su Jifang took a deep breath, then slowly exhaled, saying, "Auntie and your Uncle don’t have children. Although Guo Tong was adopted from your Uncle’s brother, she is still our only support in our old age..."
Su Xiaong pressed her lips tightly.
"No matter how bad she is, in the future, we rely on her to take care of us in our old age."
"I’ll say sothing selfish, if it wasn’t for the fear that one of us might pass away first, leaving the other one lonely and helpless, it wouldn’t matter if we were a DINK (dual inco, no kids) family."
"Raising children to support old age, although Xiao Tong is not a son, she is filial to your uncle and ."
"What Xiao Tong did was indeed outrageous, but if she really ends up in jail, what would your Uncle and I do?"
As Su Jifang spoke, tears couldn’t stop falling.
Guo Jianping beside her also had reddened eyes.
"I never said I wanted her to go to jail, Auntie, I only want to teach her a lesson. There are so things in this world that can be done, and so things that absolutely cannot be done!"
"Yes, I know you are kind, you won’t send her to jail, but she is pregnant, and you want Yin Bowen to abandon her..."
"Auntie, if Yin Bowen can do such a despicable thing to his own wife, will Cousin have a good life in the future?"
Su Xiaong really couldn’t understand what Guo Tong and Su Jifang were thinking?
Have they watched too many TV dramas, thinking that everything in the world revolves around them?
Do they think they are the most unique? That mistakes can be forgiven, and interfering in others’ marriages can lead to true love?
"Xiao ng, how about this, why don’t you call and tell your grandfather about this, if he supports your decision, Auntie will accept it, if—"
"Auntie!"
At this mont, Su Xiaong couldn’t see the kind and peaceful heart of Auntie, couldn’t see her being at peace with the world.
She only saw an old lady who couldn’t distinguish right from wrong, making unreasonable trouble, being blindly stubborn.
"There’s no need to involve my grandfather in this, right?"
"Xiao ng, don’t be agitated, I..."
"Auntie, my grandfather’s health isn’t good either, please don’t bother him with your family matters!"
Yin Shixiu knew that Su Jifang’s words had just struck the nerve that was keeping Xiaong tense, fearing that Xiaong sitting here listening to Auntie talk was already for the sake of her own grandfather.
Now Auntie even brought up her grandfather on her own.
How could Su Xiaong not be furious?
Su Jifang reached out to cover her face and started crying...
Su Xiaong finally understood why Guo Tong could cry so much.
"Auntie, Uncle, it’s not that I want to break them up, do you think it’s that easy to enter the Yin Family?"
"But weren’t you able to enter as well?"
Guo Jianping suddenly interjected.
Su Xiaong’s eyes widened, even Yin Shixiu beside her couldn’t help but turn his head.
"Yes, Xiao ng... you see, you didn’t have any problems, Xiao Tong won’t have problems either..."
"Xiao ng, Auntie promises you that once Xiao Tong and Yin Bowen get married, she will never cause any trouble again, she will live peacefully without any bad thoughts, okay?"
Su Xiaong clenched her fist.
"Xiao ng, look, you were also pregnant before marriage, right? You should be able to understand Xiao Tong’s predicant now, you should—"
"I cannot understand it!"
"ng ng... calm down."
Yin Shixiu had already heard the aning in the words of the old couple.
Pity for parents’ hearts was not wrong, but if the parents themselves are fools, then there’s nothing worth pitying.
Su Xiaong’s ankle hurt severely, and she couldn’t help but frown. Yin Shixiu saw this, didn’t think much, and bent down to pick her up again.
"Hiss..."
Su Xiaong quickly inhaled sharply.
"Does it hurt?"
"...Just a little."
Yin Shixiu kept a straight face, glanced at the elderly couple, and then walked out.
"Xiao ng, you..."
Entering the main hall from the side room, several pairs of eyes focused on them.
Yin Shixiu said, "Bowen, whether to marry Guo Tong or not, that’s your decision. But if you’re not afraid of this woman causing your downfall, then go ahead and marry her."
"The few demands Xiao ng ntioned just now, you must fulfill all of them. As for whether Jun Jie stays with Zhu Lan or you, let Jun Jie decide for himself."
"Additionally, if you insist on marrying Guo Tong, fine, then be prepared to treat your Little Aunt like a Bodhisattva."
"Everything that happened here today is clearly recorded on both mine and your Little Aunt’s phones. If any of you wish to challenge my authority, feel free to try."
Su Xiaong clutched onto Yin Shixiu’s clothes tightly.
Yin Shixiu opened the door, carrying Su Xiaong as they left Yin Bowen’s house.
After they left, a huge argunt erupted at Yin Bowen’s ho.
The car had already been parked at Yin Bowen’s doorstep for quite a while.
Yin Shixiu got into the car, holding Su Xiaong, and instructed the driver to head to the hospital.
Her ankle was a bit red and swollen...
Yin Shixiu frowned as he looked at it, lifting his eyes to et Su Xiaong’s misty gaze.
He reached out to tweak her nose and said, "You’ve already sought justice for Zhu Lan. Whether Yin Bowen marries Guo Tong doesn’t concern you anymore."
"If your grandaunt makes a fuss and reports this to your grandpa again..."
"I know."
Su Xiaong pressed her lips together.
"They’re not family if they don’t walk through the sa door. You’ve done well today, much better than I expected."
Yin Shixiu embraced her waist, holding her in his arms, "But ng ng... don’t say things that hurt my heart anymore, okay?"
Su Xiaong felt apologetic, and her eyes reddened again, leaning on his shoulder, "I’m sorry, really sorry... When Zhu Lan told about what Yin Bowen and Guo Tong did, I thought it was despicable. The mont you ca back, I hurried to tell you..."
"I know I’m pretty useless, so I just wanted you to help . I knew if you stepped in, you’d definitely be effective..."
"But before I could even finish my own calculations, you rejected , and in such a cold manner..."
"I felt really sad at the ti, indescribably so..."
Yin Shixiu patted her back, "Alright, alright, I was also at fault. I should’ve been more patient with you... hmm?"
Su Xiaong pouted and nodded.
After a mont, she mumbled, "What if Yin Bowen really insists on marrying Guo Tong... what then?"
"If he’s really that foolish, what could we possibly do?"
"Anyway, you’ve got their weaknesses in your hands. If they try to cause trouble in the future, you just have to say the word, and their true colors will be exposed."
Yin Shixiu said with a hint of a smile.
Su Xiaong glanced up at him briefly, thinking to herself that it was true. Her abilities were limited, but at least she had achieved the goals she set before coming here.
After a short silence, she couldn’t help but speak somberly, "Uncle... why do you think my grandaunt could say such things about ..."
Yin Shixiu hugged her tightly.
"Uncle, do you think it’s all your fault?"
Yin Shixiu looked down at her and stole a kiss, "Yeah, it’s my fault."
"Why do you admit it so... readily? It makes embarrassed to really bla you..."
"Xiao ng..."
"Hmm?"
Yin Shixiu leaned close to her ear, rubbing her earlobe, murmuring, "I’m really... madly in love with you."
Listening to Yin Shixiu whisper those words in her ear, no matter how many tis, hearing him say "love" always made her heart race.
The car reached the hospital entrance, and Yin Shixiu carried her into orthopedics, taking an X-ray to check the severity of her sprain.
"It’s okay, no damage to the bones. Apply ointnt for two weeks, and it should be fine."
After the doctor told this to Yin Shixiu, only then did Su Xiaong see his face relax.
She herself also let out a small sigh of relief.
"But... Mrs. Yin, with your big belly, you really need to be careful when walking. Twisting your ankle is one thing, but if you fall and hurt the baby... right?"
The breath Su Xiaong just released sucked right back in. She glanced at Yin Shixiu, eting his slightly reproachful eyes.
Without dodging, she imdiately saluted Yin Shixiu playfully, "Chief, Su Xiaong admits her mistakes and promises not to repeat them. Until Yin Xiaobao is born, everything prioritizes Xiaobao’s safety, and I won’t ddle again! I hope for leniency!"
"Pfft..."
Su Xiaong chose the wrong place for jokes, given they were still in the doctor’s consultation room.
Yin Shixiu kept a stern face, while the doctor burst into laughter.
"Mrs. Yin is really adorable. I think Mr. Yin shouldn’t be too upset anymore."
Yin Shixiu sighed with a slight sarcastic tone, "Upset? Would I dare..."
"Uncle..."
Seeing her about to start acting spoiled, Yin Shixiu quickly picked up her shoe and carried her out of the clinic.
Su Xiaong lay on his back, turning her head to say, "Didn’t you just say you were madly in love with ? Now you’re angry again?"
"Not angry. Just a little scared."
