âYes, Dad, youâre forcing Han City to leave. Since Han Cheng came back, he must have brought his granddaughter-in-law back to see you, but youâ¦â Xu Yuan looked at Chengxin who was beside the old man and stopped talking.
Everyone could clearly see Zuo Hanchengâs protective attitude. The old man was furious, but he could only frown as he looked at the two of them holding hands. Then, he turned to look at Chengxin, who was aggrieved and silent.
After about ten seconds, the old man suddenly sighed.â Sigh, what a sin. Hancheng, donât blame Grandpa for making things difficult for Gu Anhao. Look at you, Chengxin was fine and didnât want to get married. She would rather leave home for five years than marry into the Cheng family. In the end, she just casually married Gu Anhao. What are you thinkingâ¦
Anhao did not pay attention to the old manâs words. She turned to look at Zuo Hancheng and whispered,ââAlthough this Zuo family is big, it is not warm at all.
Although Anhaoâs voice was not loud, it could still be heard by everyone here. The old man immediately looked at her coldly.
Zuo Hancheng said coldly before the old man could speak,ââindeed, even after we got married, there were still people who tried to occupy the magpieâs nest. Anhao, Iâve made you suffer.â
Zuo Hanchengâs voice was neither too loud nor too soft. It was a doting tone. It was as if he could only see Anhao in his eyes, and his tone was casual.
However, such a light sentence had an extremely powerful killing power.
Cheng Xinâs face was so pale that she could not say a word. She only raised her head and looked at his back, her eyes filled with hurt.
The old man was about to say something, but seeing that Zuo Hancheng was really going to leave with Anhao, he hesitated for a moment and actually chose to take a step back.âââ Fine, fine, fine. Hancheng, stay for dinner. I finally got you back, so letâs not talk about Chengxin for now. But even if you donât think about anything else, you should consider that Chengxin is your grandfatherâs granddaughter. You should at least give her some face. You canât always say such hurtful words.
Zuo Hancheng curled his lips coldly. Before he could say anything, Zuo Yue rushed up and said, ââGrandpa, it was Chengxin who hurt her first, right? She was the one who framed Sister-in-law first yesterday. Initially, my brother just didnât accept Chengxin and didnât have any intention of targeting her. However, Chengxin lied yesterday and caused Sister-in-law to not sleep well last night. All of this is on her. Why are you pushing the blame to my brother and Sister-in-law?!â
âShut up!â The old man could not be angry at Zuo Hancheng now. He did not expect Zuo Yue to dare to stand up and criticize him. He immediately glared at Zuo Yue.
Zuo Yueâs shoulders trembled. She was frightened by the old manâs imposing manner. She rolled her eyes at Chengxin who was beside him and turned back to the sofa to continue cutting her nails.
âGrandpaâ¦â Cheng Xin suddenly spoke,â Since even Zuo Yue misunderstood me like this, it seems that my presence here has really made everyone unhappy. Iâd better leave.â
With that, Chengxin turned around with red eyes and secretly wiped her tears.
Grandpa Sheng turned around and looked at Cheng Xinâs back. He thought for a moment and suddenly looked in the direction of Zuo Hancheng and Gu Anhao.â Donât leave. Weâll have a peaceful lunch today. Hancheng and Gu Anhao will stay. Chengxin, donât leave either. Youâve been coming to the Zuo family since you were young, so youâre basically a member of the Zuo family. Even if Hancheng doesnât accept you, youâre still the precious granddaughter of me and your grandfather. No one can bully you.ââ
Although the old man was still defending Chengxin, his words were already a big concession for the time being. Chengxin turned around and said obediently, âAlright, in order to not disappoint Grandpa, Iâll have a good lunch with Grandpa and leave in the afternoon.â
The old man didnât object this time. Chengxinâs situation here was not very good, and the more she went on like this, the more Hancheng would hate her. This was contrary to his original thoughts and plans. Seeing that the old man had really compromised, Anhao stole a glance at Zuo Hancheng and saw that he had no intention of leaving.
When he held her hand and turned her around, she was even more certain that Zuo Hancheng was clearly trying to intimidate the old master.
This was retreating in order to advance.
This man was always in control of everything without batting an eyelid. Tsk tsk, even she, who had been standing beside him all this time, did not notice it. Only now did she finally realize it.
Seeing that the old man had already led the way to the dining room, it was obvious that he was still angry. It was also obvious that he knew Zuo Hanchengâs goal, but he still held back his anger.
Anhao raised her hand and gave Zuo Hancheng a thumbs up.ââl thought the old man was your nemesis. So youâre the old manâs nemesis.â
Zuo Hancheng chuckled and pulled her to the dining room.
For a moment, she felt as if she could be held by his hand forever.
After the meal, Anhao took the opportunity to ask Zuo Yue for a colorful rubber band to tie her hair up while Old Master Zuo and Father Zuo were talking.
It had been many years since she tied her hair with a rubber band. Although she could only tie a short tail behind her head, she felt more feminine all of a sudden.
Zuo Yue even thoughtfully found a pair of cute colorful diamond earrings for Anhao to put on. Anhao noticed that the label of the pair of colorful diamond earrings had not been removed, so it must be her new purchase. Just as she was about to refuse, Zuo Yue pulled her to sit in front of the mirror and stubbornly put the earrings on.
âThen, look, how beautiful.â Zuo Yue stood behind her in satisfaction. She looked at Anhao in the mirror and chuckled.ââl didnât buy these earrings recently. When I went shopping with my friends in New York at the beginning of the year, I passed by a jewelry store. I thought they looked good, so I bought a few pairs, but I only wore one pair.â
As she spoke, Zuo Yue turned around and rummaged through his cabinet like a treasure.ââSister-in-law, I still have a lot of jewelry and gadgets that I bought but havenât opened yet. Do you want them? Iâll give you some.â
âNo need. I donât usually have the habit of wearing these things. The pair you gave me is enough.âAnhao said happily as she looked at the mirror and touched her ears and the small earrings with colorful diamonds.
âHow can that do? Thereâs nothing to get used to. I have a lot of them here anyway. I donât wear them myself. Itâs a waste to keep them. The most important thing was that Chengxin didnât look like she was exaggerating, but her hair clip, earrings, diamond necklace, and even a small bag all revealed a
lot of knowledge. She was a scheming b * tch. Every single one of them revealed the style of a socialite. She wanted to outshine you..â
