Chapter 369: Repayment

Shen Yin took her son’s hand and made him sit beside her, ignoring what Lian’e had just said.

She Imew all too well what kind of person Lian’e was. It was obvious that she was incompetent, but she blamed everything on Old Master Lian. She felt that Old Master Lian was biased towards his grandson, Lian Jing, but never took responsibility for her own actions.

It would only be a waste of energy to talk to such a person.

Fu Xiao saw that the atmosphere had become tense. He quickly tried to smooth things over. “But Nian Nian won’t be like that. With Little Jing to personally teach him, he will receive the best education in the Lian family. He will definitely be outstanding in the future.”

Only then did Old Master Lian’s expression soften. He pointed at the sofa opposite and said softly, “Sit.”

“Thank you, Dad.” Fu Xiao nodded and bowed. Then, he pulled Lian’e’s sleeve and sat down with her.

Old Master Lian sized up their hesitant expressions and guessed their purpose for visiting. He denied their request before they could speak. “Did you visit Little Ting today?”

“Yes.” Lian’e looked sad as she wiped her tears pitifully. “Dad, you watched Little Ting grow up. Surely you feel sorry for him.”

Fu Xiao also pretended to hug his wife’s shoulders tightly, tears flowing from his eyes. “Little Ting should be punished for his wrongdoings. But Little Jing is about to get married, and Little Ting can’t attend his cousin’s wedding. It’s really a pity.”

“In the end, Little Ting did something wrong. No one else is to blame.” Lian’e and Fu Xiao echoed each other. Although they did not ask Old Master Lian to help release Little Ting, they were determined to cry until Old Master Lian’s heart softened.

They did not know that Old Master Lian had already made up his mind about this matter.

It had not been easy for the Lian family to reach their current position, so what he was afraid of was someone taking the wrong path and ruining the hard work of several generations.

Although Fu Ting had not done anything that was directly harmful, he had indirectly destroyed countless happy families.

He sighed softly and suppressed the anger in his heart. When he looked up again, his eyes were calm. “Little E, Little Fu, if you are here to plead for Xiao Ting, I advise you not to speak. Otherwise, I will no longer acknowledge you as members of the Lian family.”

“Dad?” Lian’e said uncertainly. She had not expected the Old Master to be so ruthless.

Did he only love Lian Jing and his sister? But she was his daughter and Fu Ting was his grandson. How could he leave them in the lurch!

Thinking about how Old Master Lian had personally handed the family business to Lian Jing back then, Lian’e felt as if a thorn had pierced through her heart.

She choked and held her tears, her face cold. “Dad, if you’re really going to be so heartless, then I will never return to this house again.”

“Little E!” Fu Xiao watched in shock as his wife left the Lian house without looking back. He instantly felt uncomfortable.

If he left now, it would undoubtedly mean that he would have to leave the Lian family like his wife, but he could not relinquish his current wealth.

Without the support of the Lian family, his and Lian’e’s companies would probably be taken back. Then they would not be able to live as well as they did now.

He thought it through very clearly, so he only hesitated for a moment before

Imeeling. He said to Old Master Lian with tears in his eyes, “Dad, don’t mind

Little E. She’s just too worried about Little Ting. You don’t know how thin Little

Ting has become!”

Old Master Lian’s expression was also very ugly. Of course, he knew his own daughter well.

Lian’e’s departure had broken his heart. He did not expect their relationship to become so strained. Suddenly, he felt that his chest tighten. Old Master Lian hurriedly clutched his chest and waved his hand. “Leave. You don’t have to kneel to me. Little Jing handled this matter correctly. You have to learn to distinguish right from wrong and know your limits!”

Fu Xiao’s expression changed slightly. His pale lips trembled as he stood up. “Dad, are you really going to abandon Little Ting?”

Old Master Lian found it difficult to even breathe. He made a weak noise, and he gradually turned pale.

Shen Yin heard Old Master Lian’s breathing and hurriedly put down her phone. She got some pills and fed them to Old Master Lian. Shen Nian quickly poured a glass of warm water and brought it over.

Fortunately, the two of them had noticed it early. Otherwise, the Old Master would have had another heart attack.

This time, Fu Xiao did not dare to say anything to the old man. He sat there awkwardly, waiting for for the Old Master to return to normal before apologizing respectfully and leaving.

By the time Lian Jing returned, Shen Yin had already sent Old Master Lian back to his room to rest.

When the butler told him what had happened, he held Shen Yin’s hand and his eyes filled with gratitude. “You’ve saved Grandpa again. Yin Yin, how should I repay you?”

Shen Yin pretended to think about it seriously, then playfully patted his head. “You must be my slave for the rest of your life.”

“Alright.” Lian Jing agreed very quickly. He even took off his clothes as he spoke. “I’ll serve you now..”
