As soon as the study room door closed, Huo Qinyu said, “Since Uncle has something else to discuss, we’ll head out first.”

Xing Siqing blurted, “Mom, I haven’t tried on the dress yet…”

“Take it home and try it there.” Huo Qinyu interrupted her, turning her gaze towards Xing Yuyun, “Yuyun, let’s go.”

Xing Yuyun stood up and silently headed towards the exit.

Su Yanyan wanted to chase after him but was pulled back by Jiang Yi.

“Auntie.” Qiao Zixin finally regained her senses, “I have to go too. This dress fits well, I’ll take it home directly.”

“Alright.”

They all stepped outside, just in time to see a Bentley passing by with Huo Jingshen.

Huo Jingshen’s handsome profile flashed past.

Qiao Zixin looked as if she had lost her soul, her gaze trailing after the car. She didn’t even hear Huo Qinyu’s voice until her wrist was tugged.

“Miss Qiao?”

Qiao Zixin snapped back to reality, “Sorry, I was lost in thought.”

Huo Qinyu glanced at the departing Bentley, smiling,” We’re going back to Dongcheng, do you need a ride?”

A thought crossed Qiao Zixin’s mind, “Sure, thank you, Auntie.”

As soon as she got in the car, Xing Siqing started to complain. “Mom, did you see it? Uncle Su’s face turned pale from the pain. I heard our brother knows martial arts, that’s too much! For a worthless woman, he even dared to strike his father-in-law. It’s just…”

“Say less.” Huo Qinyu interrupted her.

Xing Siqing huffed, turning to look out the window.

The car was quiet.

After a while, Qiao Zixin casually asked, “Wanwan’s marriage hasn’t been long, has it?”

“Indeed!” Xing Siqing immediately started babbling again, “Who knows how that tramp hooked up with our brother? She was making a fuss with my brother just a while ago, I think she is vain and only cares about the prestige of the Huo family. Becoming the daughter-in-law of the Huo family is much more glamorous compared to the Xing family. Our brother is set to inherit Huo Yuan’s fortune. My brother, on the other hand, doesn’t have a background or connections. My grandpa doesn’t value him and my dad….”

“Siqing!” Huo Qinyu sternly cut her off.

Never had she seen a sister belittling her own brother like this.

Xing Yuyun was driving at the time, although he didn’t say a word, it was clear he didn’t take her words lightly.

The car fell silent again and no one dared to speak for the rest of the trip.

But Qiao Zixin was secretly delighted, for she had learned two important pieces of information:

First: Su Wanwan and Huo Jingshen had a whirlwind marriage; their understanding of each other was superficial at best.

Second: Su Wanwan was only interested in Huo Jingshen’s wealth and status, meaning her intentions were impure.

Inside the study, Su Xueqin, leaning on his cane, tremblingly stood up from his wheelchair. With his right hand, he swung a slap.

He put all his strength into it, causing Su Yuntang’s face to turn to one side, instantly leaving a white handprint.

“How many times have I told you! Don’t vent your anger on Wanwan!”

Su Xueqin sat back in his wheelchair, his anger unabated.

Su Yuntang clenched his teeth, replying, “Dad, why do you always defend that wretched daughter? Are you aware that she just threw Yanyan’s clothes and shoes all over the floor and deliberately pushed Jiang Yi down? She is clearly…” “For no reason, why would she do that? Isn’t it because you all went too far? Previously, you wanted to drive her out of the house, and now you want to seize the house entirely!”

Su Yuntang snorted coldly, looking out the window.

The old voice of Su Xueqin rang out once again:

“I know, you think that woman dishonored you and ruined your future prospects.

But she’s been dead for twenty years, and your career is now successful. Why can’t you let go of your grudges and treat Wanwan a bit better?

She is, after all, your flesh and blood. You wanted to slap her in front of everyone. If it weren’t for Huo Jingshen’s intervention, what would outsiders think? What would the Huo family think?

All these years you deliberately sent her to boarding school. Two years ago, you even sent her to Los Angeles. The reason I turned a blind eye was because I didn’t want constant chaos in the house.

But you’ve gone too far now, even giving the groom I carefully selected for her to your other daughter, and now you want to get violent!

I’m old and no longer capable, but I haven’t lost my mind!

I do not want to see a repeat of today’s events!”

Su Xueqin pronounced his ultimatum, ready to leave the study with his wheelchair.

“Dad.”

Su Xueqin turned his head back, “Do you have anything else to say?”

Su Yuntang hesitated.

Finally, he asked, “Is Ya Jin really dead?”
