Everyone turned to look at Grandpa Li when they heard him say this.
Everyone else was shocked, including Su Qingsang. She also felt a bit sad and helpless.
She knew that Grandpa Li had gone back to the village to recuperate when she was getting married. In addition, she wasnât the official daughter of the Su family, so Grandpa Li didnât have any reason to show up.
She had had no idea that these people didnât even notify Grandpa Li of her marriage. So be it. She wasnât part of the Li family, so what was the use of notifying Grandpa Li now?
Grandpa Li saw that she was keeping quiet and furrowed his brows. âWhat? Youâre unwilling?â
The old man was confused. Although the son of the old friend had some problems, he still had some benefits.
His family had agreed to gift fifty percent of their companyâs stocks to the family if the Li family agreed to a marriage with them.
âFather.â Li Qianxue seemed to only just realize that she had never told her father about Su QIngsangâs marriage. âSheâs already married.â
âWhat?â
âYes, grandfather.â Su Peizhen had never thought that Grandpa Li would ever think to arrange a marriage for Su Qingsang. âSheâs already married. Half a month ago.â
Grandfather Liâs face grew dark. âHow come no one told me about such a big event?â
He had already been very upset with Su Chenghui when he cheated as soon as he got married. He had been even more upset when Su Qingsang was born.
He had even asked Su Chenghui to take Su Qingsang to the orphanage. It was Su Chenghui who begged him and promised that Su Qingsang would never threaten Su Peizhenâs position in the family.
He reluctantly agreed and allowed Su QIngsang to be raised in the Su family.
Su Peizhen had gotten engaged to Qiu Yanbo. The two were a good match and were childhood sweethearts.
Grandpa Li had thought it all out already. They raised an illegitimate daughter for so long, they should get something back from it.
It wasnât because he was heartless. His only daughter married Su Chenghui, but Su Chenghui didnât know how to appreciate her and had had an illegitimate daughter.
Since that was the situation, he didnât need to be courteous with Su Chenghui. In addition, the family that he had chosen had it pretty good. It was Su Qingsang who was claiming ties with people in a higher position.
âWhat family is the boy from?â
Su Qingsang watched, acting like she wasnât part of the situation.
Su Peizhen excitedly told her grandfather what she knew. Grandpa Li was silent while he listened the whole time. No one knew what he was thinking.
âHuo?â Was there a family of high status in Lin City with that surname?
Grandfather Li turned around to look at Li Qianxue.
Li Qianxue took a quick glance at her âdaughter,â then turned back around to look at Grandpa Li.
âFather, itâs rare for you to come to events like this. There are so many people here and you must be tired from standing for so long. Why donât you go rest?â
She didnât like Su Qingsang, but she wouldnât stoop so low as to make an illegitimate daughter look bad. As for Su Peizhen, sometimes she was too angry and liked to tease her, so she let her be.
âSince Su Qingsang is already married, reject the marriage. Our Li family doesnât need to accomplish anything from marriage right now anyway.â
The Li family had married into the Qiu family because it was a good match and because Su Peizhen liked Qiu Yanbo. How else could they have arranged it?
As for Su Qingsang, as long as she wasnât a threat to Su Peizhen, she wouldnât pick on her.
And for the things and inheritances that Su Chenghui had given Su Qingsang, how would Su Qingsang have obtained them if she hadnât agreed?
Grandfather Li was about to listen to his daughter and go back and rest when some news drifted in from the entrance.
It was the Qiu familyâs banquet today and everyone was focused on them. Still, they saw the slender figure appear at the entrance and start walking towards them one step at a time.
