Chapter 1462: Vile person

“Such frivolous behavior from Su Qingyue! Even Chuan’er says nothing; it’s simply a disgrace to men everywhere!” Xiao Chonghuan raged unabated.

“Exactly, not to mention our Chuan’er is the legitimate son of a first-class family – even an ordinary man, upon seeing his wife act so shamefully, would at least rush up and slap her a few times, publicly chastise her, and divorce her on the spot.” Shen Yun was also furious. “If it continues like this, then the Xiao Family will eventually fall under Su Qingyue’s control, even after Chuan’er’s formal return to the clan.”

“This menace must be eliminated!” A bloodthirsty light flashed in the aged eyes of Xiao Chonghuan.

Seeing her husband’s intent to kill, Shen Yun’s heart flickered with a sinister smile, wishing for Su Qingyue’s immediate death, “Master, why not have a killer directly dispose of Su Qingyue.”

“Let’s wait a bit more.”

“But…”

“Lady, you do not understand. Chuan’er is utterly tender towards Su Qingyue. When Qingyue fell off the cliff, our Chuan’er actually jumped down after her. I fear that with the depth of Chuan’er’s feelings for Su Qingyue now, if she dies, Chuan’er might lose his will to live too.”

Shen Yun was astonished, “Is that so?”

Xiao Chonghuan picked up the tea cup in his hand, “I sent someone to bring Xiao Yishan over this morning; he confirmed the story firsthand. It can’t be fake.”

Shen Yun, too, was afraid of losing her son, “In this case, we should let Chuan’er’s affection for Su Qingyue fade before we take her life.”

“There is no other way. Does Lady have any clever plan?”

“Master, I believe that if Su Qingyue can be so vile, her parents are certainly no better.” Disdain flickered in Shen Yun’s slightly yellowed eyeballs, “Before our arrival in Longwan Town, Su Qingyue’s biological parents reached out to us. Su Qingyue, unfilial and rebellious, wouldn’t even acknowledge her own parents. Our Chuan’er also did not recognize Su Dashui and his wife as his in-laws, presumably despising the conduct of the Su Family couple. I’ve inquired, and they are selfish, greedy people.”

“What does Lady suggest?”

“We should bring the Su Family couple here. Whatever misdeeds the Su Family couple have committed, Su Qingyue, as their biological daughter, must take care of the aftermath. Chuan’er, out of consideration for Su Qingyue’s feelings, won’t ignore it. Tell me, if their wrongdoings escalate, can Chuan’er remain patient with Su Qingyue?”

“Good idea.” Xiao Chonghuan stroked his beard, “Once Chuan’er’s feelings for Su Qingyue fade, we hit them with a final forceful move.”

“I will send for Su Dashui and his wife right away.”

…

The next day, early in the morning, just as Su Qingyue got out of bed, Maid Yinzhu hurriedly ran in, “Young Lady, something’s wrong?”

“What’s wrong?” asked Xiao Yuchuan, who had just finished dressing.

Yinzhu bowed and said, “Son-in-law, your in-laws have come; they are currently having breakfast in the hall.”

Su Qingyue raised an eyebrow, “Who cooked for them? Why have they come?”

“To answer the Young Lady, they were brought here by Lady Xiao, and are now being treated as distinguished guests of the Mansion.” Yinzhu replied uncertainly, “Master Su and Lady Su not only came themselves but also brought along their niece. They arrived with big bags and small bags; it looks like they intend to stay long-term.”

“I’ll take a look.” Xiao Yuchuan went to the hall and saw Master Xiao Chonghuan and his wife sitting around a table with Su Dashui and his wife and an unfamiliar young lady, chatting and laughing.

His facial expression immediately darkened, “Who allowed you to bring the Su Family couple here?”

This ‘you’ naturally pointed to Xiao Chonghuan and his wife.

Master Su immediately stood up eagerly, “Son-in-law, you’re here; come join us for breakfast. We’ve kept seats for you and Yue’er.”
