After Being Betrayed I Married the Glamorous CEO-Chapter 199, You woman, are you a bit brain-damaged?!

Chapter 199: Chapter 199, You woman, are you a bit brain-damaged?!

Shen Fanyun sat backward in his chair, his arms resting on the backrest. A mirthless smile played on his lips as he stared at Chen Su, who was twisting in indecision, struggling to make up her mind.

This woman was certainly interesting. Her life was on the line, yet she was still so concerned about her assets? Besides, this was all ill-gotten wealth, earned through scams and deceit.

"I... I’ll return five million at most," Chen Su said seriously, gritting her teeth.

She was genuinely trying to negotiate, acting as if she were being incredibly righteous and magnanimous?!

"Heh, you won’t be taking a single cent of my family’s property," Zhao Jian scoffed.

Shen Fanyun paced over to Chen Su and lifted her chin, examining her closely. "Return how much?"

"Five... five million."

SLAP!

Shen Fanyun struck her hard across the face. "How much will you return?" he asked again, his tone devoid of any emotion.

Caught off guard, Chen Su’s head snapped back. Five deep, red fingerprints instantly appeared on her beautiful face, the skin nearly broken.

The bodyguards didn’t dare to move. In their eyes, Shen Fanyun was far more terrifying than their boss, Chen Su. The man’s power was unfathomable. Most importantly, he clearly had no qualms about hitting a woman.

"Do you have any idea who my family is? How dare you hit me?" The slap had driven Chen Su into a rage, and she yelled at Shen Fanyun. After all, the Chen Family was a major power in Hangcheng City.

This was exactly what Shen Fanyun had been waiting for.

"Contact your elders right now. I’m curious to see what kind of family could raise such a shameless descendant."

"Fine! You’ll regret this." Trembling, Chen Su took out her phone and quickly dialed Old Master Chen’s number.

The moment the call connected, she didn’t say a word, simply bursting into hysterical sobs. Once she had cried her fill, she finally whimpered, "Grandpa! Grandpa, save me!"

Far away at the Chen residence, Old Master Chen shot to his feet, his face grim. Does this person think the Chen Family is defunct? How dare they bully my own granddaughter? He had never seen Chen Su cry so hard she sounded like she was on the verge of death. What kind of torment could she possibly be enduring? Just yesterday, Chen Su had been happily meeting with him. How could something have happened in just one night?

"Where are you?" Old Master Chen inquired.

"I’m at Hangcheng City Hospital," Chen Su rushed to answer.

"I’ll be there immediately."

Chen Su hung up, her confidence suddenly restored. "My grandfather is coming," she announced. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Shen Fanyun nodded. He reached for a cigarette before remembering he was in a hospital and stopping himself.

Chen Su looked over Shen Fanyun curiously. He really is an unparalleled madman. No wonder even Han Long got no respect from him. She wasn’t sure if calling her grandfather was a good or bad thing for the Chen Family. Could it end up implicating them?

About twenty minutes passed before a series of heavy footsteps echoed from the corridor. Chen Su’s face lit up with relief, her earlier panic subsiding.

Evidently, her grandfather was taking this very seriously. He had brought a large number of subordinates; from the sound of it, there were at least twenty or thirty men. In that case, no matter how terrifying or skilled Shen Fanyun was, he couldn’t possibly fight so many people at once. As long as her grandfather rescued her, she would find a chance to settle this score with Shen Fanyun later.

First he offended Han Long, and now the Chen Family. Chen Su refused to believe Shen Fanyun could survive in Hangcheng City after making enemies everywhere.

After a quick analysis, she concluded the advantage was hers.

"Su Su, where are you?" It was the old master’s anxious voice.

"Grandfather, over here!"

Amidst a clatter of footsteps, a crowd of men rushed over. Leading them was Old Master Chen, a white-bearded man in a traditional jacket. His expression was cold, and his cheekbones were high and prominent.

"Su Su?" Old Master Chen’s eyes landed on the distraught Chen Su, whose pupils were dilated.

In an instant, a surge of anger and heartache filled his chest.

"Grandpa, it hurts so much!" Chen Su sobbed, finally breaking down completely as tears streamed down her cheeks. "Grandpa, look at me! Look what’s happened to my face!"

"Who in the world are you? I don’t believe the Chen Family has offended you in any way, have we?" Old Master Chen demanded. He had never seen Shen Fanyun before, so the young man’s face was completely unfamiliar.

As her grandfather approached, Chen Su threw her arms around him. "Grandpa!"

Shen Fanyun spoke up first. "Now that the one in charge is here, let’s discuss how to resolve this."

"Resolve this? I’m afraid it won’t be that simple." Old Master Chen tenderly examined Chen Su’s cheek. His own granddaughter had been beaten into this state. If he didn’t demand a proper explanation, the Chen Family would become a laughingstock. How could they call themselves a prominent family if they couldn’t even protect their own?

"Your granddaughter drove a person to the brink of death over ill-gotten wealth. Giving her a couple of slaps to teach her a lesson is perfectly reasonable."

"Look over there," Shen Fanyun said, gesturing to the other bed. "The person lying there is also the handiwork of your precious granddaughter."

"Just yesterday, she paid a personal visit to ask the bedridden Aunt Yu when she planned on dying."

"I have to wonder, is your granddaughter completely lacking in morals and basic decency?"

"After committing such a heinous and utterly depraved act, she still has the gall to come here and act high and mighty. Did she really think no one could touch her?"

Old Master Chen was stunned by Shen Fanyun’s words and paused, trying to gauge their truthfulness. Still, he retorted indignantly, "Even if my granddaughter did something wrong, it is not your place to discipline her! I will handle it myself, impartially."

"If you were capable of handling it, my Aunt Yu wouldn’t have been lying in this hospital for half a month. Impartially? Are you just going to talk her back to health?" Shen Fanyun raised an eyebrow, his gaze fixed on Old Master Chen.

"I was unaware of this before now. If I had known, I would have definitely dealt with it fairly," Old Master Chen explained.

Besides, the Chen Family was prominent and had never known what it meant to lack money. Why would Chen Su go to such lengths for so-called ill-gotten gains? It didn’t add up. Old Master Chen didn’t believe Shen Fanyun’s words; he refused to think his granddaughter could be so wicked.

Shen Fanyun shook his head and chuckled. "You don’t even know your own granddaughter’s true nature. Some elder you are. She’s committed heinous deeds and is utterly devoid of conscience, yet you, her grandfather, are completely clueless about her character. Hmph."

Old Master Chen was speechless.

"Su Su, what really happened?" Old Master Chen finally turned to ask his granddaughter.

Chen Su flatly denied it. "Nothing like that happened! It was all a gift from Zhao Jian! I swear on my life, every cent I received was clean. There was no scam or fraud!"

Zhao Jian? Old Master Chen knew the name. The boy was dating his granddaughter, but since it hadn’t reached the point of discussing marriage, the two families’ elders had never met. How did things escalate to this point?
