Su Xiaong held her grandfather as they left Yin Shiqing’s house.
Su Jikang stood outside the red walls of the villa. He slightly raised his head. It was two in the afternoon, and the sun was even fiercer...
The sunlight was so intense that the elderly man couldn’t open his eyes.
"ng ng..."
"Hmm?"
"Did you see your grandaunt’s fate?"
"..."
Su Xiaong’s heart was stunned. She quickly looked towards Su Jikang. The sun was glaring, and Xiao ng couldn’t clearly see her grandfather’s face...
"She acquiesced to her daughter breaking up another’s family and let her daughter marry such a man... She must bear the sins she created herself."
Su Jikang spoke in an authentic Chengdu dialect.
Xiao ng listened and closed her eyes...
She had been struggling with whether to get involved in this case because her thoughts matched what her grandfather was saying now.
Grandaunt must bear the sins she created herself.
Guo Tong is her daughter, and she didn’t pull her back when she began to stray, even indulging in the riches and face her daughter brought.
This undoubtedly pushed Guo Tong into a deep pit of greed and desire...
Looking back, even if one regrets it until their gut turns green, it won’t change the facts.
But...
Xiao ng looked at the ground beneath her feet and thought about the large villa behind...
She was truly unwilling.
How could there be such wicked people in this world? They are unmoved by the slightest bit by the decline of life.
No wonder grandfather said this mansion feels quite terrifying?
This whole family...
"You... You’re... Su Xiaong?!"
Just as Su Xiaong was lost in thought, a girl walking towards her exclaid in surprise, her expression full of excitent and happiness.
Xiao ng was brought back from her reverie and looked at the girl in front of her, who was as young as herself.
She held a professional guidebook for interpreting in her hands.
Xiao ng was sure she did not know this girl but hesitated slightly and nodded,
"I am. Who are you?"
"You really are Su Xiaong! I’m your fan! My na is Yang Xiaoxue! I’m super worshipful of you! Can you sign for ?"
Yang Xiaoxue’s appearance was very delicate, her skin as white and translucent as snow, indicating she was a girl raised in a good family.
Her eyes weren’t very big, but they were bright and clear, with a classical beauty.
Xiao ng was startled by this sudden encounter with a "fan." Since when did she have fans?
"Give a signature, please..."
Yang Xiaoxue, seeing Xiao ng not respond for quite so ti, couldn’t help but feel a bit disappointed, afraid Xiao ng didn’t want to sign, she pleadingly requested again.
Despite feeling a bit embarrassed, Xiao ng took the interpreting guidebook from Yang Xiaoxue’s hands,
"Sign on the title page?"
"Yes, yes, that’s fine!"
Yang Xiaoxue was overjoyed, "This year, I’m also going to apply to the University of Bath’s Modern Language College. I was just hoping to et you before the exams, and I didn’t expect heaven to be so gracious to !"
"Bath?"
"Yeah, the ’Bathtub’ University! Haha!"
Xiao ng couldn’t help but curve her lips in a reminiscent arc as she heard "Bathtub." Bath, in English, translates to a "bathtub" in Chinese.
Many Chinese students affectionately refer to the University of Bath as "Bathtub University."
"By the way, why are you here?"
Yang Xiaoxue glanced at the Yin family’s villa, looking suspicious.
"It’s nothing, just visiting relatives."
"Relatives... Yin’s relatives?"
Yang Xiaoxue said in surprise.
Xiao ng nodded slightly, kind of.
Yang Xiaoxue’s expression showed a complex emotion.
Xiao ng, having sharp eyes, quickly caught this emotion, "What’s wrong?"
"I... Can I ask you sothing?"
"What is it?"
"A few days ago, I t an elderly lady in the community, wearing a thick brand-na wool coat in the sumr. I later learned that she was Yin’s in-law, and I escorted her to the Yin family."
"..."
Xiao ng tried to suppress the shock in her heart. She hadn’t expected this girl to be the one who brought her grandaunt to Yin Bowen’s place.
"But unexpectedly that night, the elderly lady passed away..."
"..."
"This matter hasn’t spread, but my ho is across from the Yin family. That night the police ca and quietly settled the issue..."
"Yes."
Su Xiaong answered.
"I just want to know... how did that elderly lady die... After all, I took her there. She seed so pitiful... so..."
"You’re Yang Xiaoxue, right?"
"Yes."
"Do you have so ti later?"
"Ah?"
Su Xiaong smiled slightly at her, "I’ll buy you a coffee."
Yang Xiaoxue’s eyes suddenly lit up, clearly surprised!
————
At this ti, the Yin household was not just occupied by Yin Bowen; Yin Shiqing was also at ho. However... he did not co forward.
Perhaps for matters like this, he did not need to co forward to explain anything.
He was in the study working, looking at docunts, not caring when Xiao ng arrived or left downstairs.
However, Yin Bowen had spoken with Su Xiaong face-to-face briefly, yet, after they left, his mood could not calm down for a long ti.
"You think calling the police will make everything okay?"
"The legal clause of ’self-defense,’ do you think it’s that simple? Grandaunt wasn’t entirely in control of herself; she had a ntal illness. Moreover, the autopsy showed that before grandaunt died, her chest was heavily hit, with a foot."
When Su Xiaong said this, her gaze instinctively fell on Yin Bowen’s feet, her lips curled slightly,
"The ’self-defense’ immunity was found well, but have you understood the limits and asures of ’self-defense’ stipulated by law? Hmph."
Yin Bowen never expected this woman would go to check the autopsy results.
It’s not hard to deduce from Su Xiaong’s words that she had done legal consultations on this matter...
Yin Bowen also went to understand the criteria for determining "self-defense," which made him a little guilty, but he is Yin’s son; who dares to hassle him?
Does Guo Jianping dare?
Or does that yellow-haired kid Guo Shuai dare?
But Su Xiaong...
This reckless woman probably really dares...
Shi Haiyan returned from outside, just missing Su Xiaong and her grandfather who had left not long ago.
Upon returning she saw her son sitting on the sofa, absentmindedly biting his fingers,
"What are you thinking about?"
"Mom... I think I need to find a way to warn Su Xiaong... This woman is becoming increasingly arrogant; if left unchecked..."
When Shi Haiyan heard her son say this, she dismissively said,
"Are you really afraid of Su Xiaong? All she’s said and done is just a pretense; you think she’s truly that powerful? She’s just a paper tiger..."
Yin Bowen couldn’t agree with his mother’s rash conclusion and shook his head seriously,
"No... When Uncle was around, she might have been a paper tiger, but now... she’s beco a real tiger, and many have paid a heavy price for underestimating her."
"..."
Shi Haiyan frowned even deeper.
"This can’t go on. These Su Family people are all the sa. That old man who ca with Su Xiaong today, he looks like a countryman, yet he looked at with that kind of gaze..."
"..."
"Su Jifang was asking for death! Even if I hadn’t kicked her down the stairs to die, I would eventually have to get rid of her, she was just an eyesore..."
"Bowen! Don’t ever say that again."
"Humph!"
Yin Bowen snorted, "Annoying, all of them!"
Shi Haiyan furrowed her brows and walked over to Yin Bowen, softly advising,
"The servants in the house have their ears open, what if your words get out?"
"I want to see who dares!"
Yin Bowen said angrily.
At the corner of the stairs on the second floor, a short boy leaned against the wall, his dark eyes carrying thoughts unreadable to others, showing a mournful expression far beyond his age.
In his hand was his younger brother Yin Junfan’s milk bottle...
"Really... this house is terrifying."
The doorbell rang again, the servant went to open the door, then turned to Yin Bowen and Shi Haiyan saying, "Madam, young master, Minister Wu is here."
Yin Bowen squinted slightly, quickly telling his mother, "Please inform father that Uncle Wu is here."
