Hospital ward.

“Old man, look who’s here.”

The elderly man who was reading a newspaper on his bed looks up, adjusting his reading glasses, carefully identifying the person in front of him.

Su Wanwan’s voice choked up, “Grandpa, it’s me.”

Having not seeing each other for two years, Su Xueqin seemed to have aged by more than a decade. His temples were greying, his cheeks hollow, and his hospital gown made his sickly appearance even more pronounced.

“…Wanwan?” Su Xueqin was surprised, “Is that you, Wanwan?”

Su Wanwan at 18 was going through a teenage rebel phase two years ago.

She had short, granny-gray hair, wore heavy make-up every day, sporting bizarre outfits or unrecognizable cosplay ensembles. The only thing she refrained from was facial piercings or tattoos.

Today, in order to spare her grandfather any worry, Su Wanwan carefully dressed herself, covering the handprint on her face and borrowed a ladylike dress from Mo Weiyi.

She was naturally beautiful, with a petite face, delicate features, and the pink dress enhanced her fair skin, bright and appealing allure.

So, it was no surprise that Su Xueqin couldn’t recognize her. The current Su Wanwan, whether it was her facial features, her figure, or her overall appearance, was totally different from two years ago. It was an absolute transformation.

“Sir,” Zhou Teng grinned, “Miss Su came back to visit you specifically.”

Mo Weiyi also chimed in sweetly, “Yes, Grandpa Su, all these health supplements are gifts from Wanwan.”

“No need for gifts, just your presence alone is enough,” Su Xueqin grumbled but he couldn’t hide his broad smile.

Su Wanwan cut straight to the chase, “Grandpa, were you sick because that mother and daughter upset you?”

“Bang!”

The teacup on the bedside table was knocked over, shattering on the floor.

“That bastard from the Xing family! I will not forgive him this time!” Su Xueqin burst out, unable to control his rage.

Xing Yuyun had been his carefully selected pick for a grandson-in-law in Nancheng. Two years ago, Su Wanwan and Xing Yuyun had been betrothed under the arrangement of both families.

Who could have known this bastard had snuck off with his niece and worse, had shameful photos of it snapped by the paparazzi!

If it hadn’t been for his connections squashing the news, who knows what bigger scandal this would have turned into!

Su Wanwan was taken aback and quickly tried to soothe him, “Grandpa, don’t be angry, I actually don’t like Xing Yuyun.”

Su Xueqin’s brows furrowed deeply in silence.

He clearly didn’t believe her.

“I wouldn’t have gotten engaged to him in the first place if it wasn’t for you liking him.”

Su Xueqin was startled.

“It’s true.” Su Wanwan confirmed, “I couldn’t bear to disappoint you, so I went along with it.”

Su Xueqin looked at his granddaughter for a moment, and sighed long and sadly, “I thought he was a promising young man, and I’ve known the Xing family for many years. I didn’t think… Ay! Don’t worry, Wanwan. I’ll find you a man who is much better than Xing Yuyun!”

“There’s no need, Grandpa.” Su Wanwan quickly refused, “I’m only 20 years old. I don’t want to get married so early.”

“What’s wrong with marrying early? If you marry well, then I can rest assured.” Then Su Xueqin pointed to the pretty Mo Weiyi, “Look at Miss Mo. She got married at 18. Now she and her husband have a great life. The head of the Mo family no longer needs to manage the company, he’s enjoying his life. I suppose before long they’ll start having grandchildren.”

Mo Weiyi pursed her lips slightly.

Grandchildren?

Err…

“Anyway, I don’t want to get married.” Su Wanwan quickly changed the subject after she finished her sentence, “Grandpa, you concentrate on getting better first. I’ll come to visit you every day from now on, and I’m not leaving Nancheng anymore.”

If she were to return to Los Angeles for another two years, she doubted she would have a place in the Su family anymore.

Su Xueqin, who never wanted Wanwan to study so far away, immediately agreed, “Good, then don’t ever leave. Stay by grandpa’s side. I’ll find you a better husband.”

Su Wanwan: “…”

Why are we back to the same topic?

At seven o’clock in the evening, Su family villa.

In the dining room on the first floor, a white tablecloth-layed dinner table was set with a splendid array of dishes. The “family” was having dinner.

When they saw Su Wanwan walk in, the laughter and chatter instantly stopped. Everyone at the table had varying expressions, some surprised, some angry, while Xing Yuyun scowled.

From the moment Su Wanwan suddenly appeared at the Su residence in a state of disarray yesterday, disappearing for a whole day and unreachable by phone…

Although Xing Yuyun seemed calm on the surface, his guilty conscience made him a bit anxious.

However, what he didn’t expect was that when they met again at this moment, Su Wanwan had entirely lost the fury she displayed the night before. In fact, there was no trace of any emotion on her face.

Logically, a woman who had suffered from heartbreak should either be gloomy or furious like yesterday.

But the Su Wanwan standing in front of him now.

She was wearing a pink chiffon dress that reached her ankles, with the latest popular delicate makeup. Her features were exquisite, her figure graceful, and even her smile was pleasing and appropriate.

Especially her fluffy, perfectly curled long hair that casually draped over her shoulders, conveying a lazy and intense feminine aura.

In short, she was radiant!

“Miss, let me get you some cutlery.”

“Thank you, Aunt Yan.” Su Wanwan gave a slight smile and took a seat at one end of the table.

As she wiped her hands with a wet wipe, she casually said, “I’ve run out of living expenses.”

“Bang!” Su Yuntang slammed down his chopsticks, “Did you come back to this house just to ask me for money?”

“Yeah.”

Su Wanwan answered nonchalantly, causing Su Yuntang’s face to darken instantly.

It was a sign that he was about to get angry.

“Dad!” Su Yanyan immediately started adding fuel to the fire, “Look at her attitude!”

Jiang Yi gave her daughter a warning look, then spoke in a soft and gentle voice, “Wanwan, are you out of living expenses? How much do you need? Tell me, and I’ll transfer it to you later.”

Su Wanwan spared her a glance, her lips opening slightly to say, “170,000.”

Jiang Yi was taken aback.

170,000?

What for?

“What do you need so much money for?” Su Yuntang demanded in a stern voice.

Su Wanwan picked up the red wine in front of her, took a small sip, her beautiful eyes closing into slits, and said lazily, “I need to move out. Rent, furniture, all need money. But I can’t help it. I don’t want to live here in the future. Every day in this house, I would have to watch my former fiancé being all lovey-dovey with my dear sister. Besides, this house is old and the sound insulation isn’t good. My room is right next to hers. I can hear every little noise and she’s so…loud…”

“Cough, cough, cough!” Su Yanyan was so angry she choked on her soup.

Jiang Yi looked awkward.

Su Yuntang slammed the table and stood up, “You ungrateful little…!”
