“Mrs. Su, isn’t that a strange thing to say?” Mo Weiyi raised her delicate brows, “Wanwan was so upset she left home and stayed at mine for the whole night. Yet there was no call from you to inquire about her.”

Jiang Yi replied without losing her smile, “Isn’t it normal for a parent and child to have a little disagreement? Anyway, we all know that Wanwan has a great friend like Miss Mo in Nancheng. Yuntang also specifically asked me to bring Yanyan to visit her father today, predicting Wanwan would certainly come to see her grandfather today. Seeing that Wanwan is alright, I feel at ease now.”

Jiang Yi’s witty remarks ascribed the reason for Su Wanwan’s leaving to father-daughter conflict, absolving herself and praising Mo Weiyi, without mentioning Xing Yuyun at all…

What a crafty move.

Mo Weiyi had no retort and was left gnashing her teeth in anger.

“Wanwan, after visiting your grandfather, please return home. It’s not good to impose on Miss Mo all the time. Aunt Yang has already prepared your favorite dishes for lunch,” said Jiang Yi in a mother-like tone.

“No need,” Su Wanwan declined, “I’ll leave those dishes for your future son-in-law.”

“What nonsense are you spouting, Su Wanwan? When did Yuyun become my son-in-law?” Su Yanyan was instantly angered by her words.

“Hasn’t he moved in?” Su Wanwan tilted her face, her voice innocent yet mischievous, “He’s been coming to our house every day, even sleeping in your bedroom. It made me think… that I had returned to the Xing Family instead.”

“Su Wanwan, you…”

“Yanyan,” Jiang Yi pulled her daughter back suddenly.

Because the door of the sickroom opened, someone was coming out.

Caught up in the moment, Su Wanwan went up to him, “Uncle Zhou.”

“Miss?” Zhou Teng was surprised, “When did you return to China?”

“Last night,” Su Wanwan, not wanting to elaborate, asked, “Uncle Zhou, how is my grandfather?”

“Oh, the previous operation was successful, and his health has been improving. His spirit is very good today. If he knew that you’ve come back from overseas specifically for him, he will be very happy. He may even recover and leave the hospital soon!”

Concluding his words, Zhou Teng’s smile vanished as he shifted his gaze toward Jiang Yi, “The old man says he’s feeling unwell and doesn’t wish to see anyone. Madam, please go back and come visit another time.”

His attitude before and after was dramatically different.

Even with Jiang Yi’s supreme body language skills, she failed to keep her face color from changing.

Su Yanyan stamped her feet in rage, “Why does grandfather always do this? We’ve come so many times but he refuses to see us. I bet he’s just doing it deliberately to annoy us!”

Mo Weiyi could not help but laugh, “Your Grandfather became hospitalized due to anger caused by you, isn’t it normal for him not to see you guys? You dare have the audacity to visit him after what you’ve done? And you’re upset that he doesn’t want to see you? Such thick skin.”

“What did I do, what do you mean by that…”

“Never mind,” Jiang Yi jerked her daughter to a stop, her tone still gentle and affectionate, “If Dad doesn’t wish to see us, then we’ll just leave.”

After saying this, she led Su Yanyan away.

Once inside the elevator, Jiang Yi began to lecture, “Yanyan, remember that you are Su Family’s daughter. You must watch your behavior and words whenever you are in front of others. Think twice before you act impulsively.”

“It’s just Mo Weiyi, what’s so great about her? Mom, what are you so afraid of?” Su Yanyan was dissatisfied.

All these years, because of Su Xueqin’s pampering, that wretched Su Wanwan was acting arrogant and dismissive of everyone!

Despite being the illegitimate child of a mere mistress, she enjoyed more privilege than she, the legitimate daughter of the Su family.

And Mo Weiyi, who always ignored her at parties, had a haughty aura of a princess. No matter how many times she tried to please or flatter her, it didn’t work.

Su Yanyan felt it was all because of Su Wanwan’s behind-the-scene scheming!

If only she had been wary of this illegitimate sister earlier…

“It’s not a matter of fear,” Jiang Yi was having a headache.

No matter what, Su Wanwan carries the blood of the Su Family in her veins.

Even if she resented it, despised it, or had even personally gone to the hospital for a DNA test, these were undeniable facts.

She just didn’t understand why Su Xueqin was so protective of a child borne by a mistress?

Moreover, he ordered her to keep the incident confidential.

“So what if she’s close to Mo family’s daughter? Wasn’t she also dumped by Yuyun? She’s just a woman scorned. What’s there for her to be proud of?” Su Yanyan’s mood suddenly improved when Xing Yuyun was mentioned, “Mom, since grandpa doesn’t want to see us, let’s go to the bridal shop. I want to pick out a few more dresses.”

Even if Xing Yuyun was mad last night, it would not change anything.

At the engagement party, she would let everyone in Nancheng know that she, Su Yanyan, was the true daughter of Su Family!

And Xing Yuyun, was her man!

On the day of engagement, she would be the most beautiful woman present, forcing Su Wanwan to feel ashamed and retreat!
