Supreme Heir Son-in-law-Chapter 1182 - 1181: Apology

Still, Xiao Zhen is indeed wealthy, so he doesn’t care how expensive the food his son orders is; he’s even a bit happy about it.

"You’re truly my good son. Since we want to eat, we should eat the best. Alright, today let’s go to Mengxia Pavilion and thoroughly enjoy the crayfish there. I’m sure my son will love it, and if you like it, we can go every day."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Keyu felt even more proud: "Thank you, Dad, but we can’t go every day. You have your own work, and I wouldn’t want to delay you. As long as you can spend time with me, I’m already very happy, and I don’t ask for anything else."

At this moment, Xiao Keyi was angrily walking along the road, with the maid hurriedly following behind her, as she was truly upset.

"Miss, what Master just said was merely a moment’s anger, with no real malice intended. Please don’t take it to heart and risk breaking your relationship with the Chairman, allowing that brat to succeed in his aim. You are the Chairman’s most cherished daughter."

Had the maid not mentioned this, it would have been better, but once she did, Xiao Keyi glanced at her with sarcasm.

Even the maid can see it clearly; it was clearly Xiao Keyu’s fault, yet my father is blindly favoring him. First, he blindly married that woman, and now, he’s blindly believing her son. It’s just ridiculous. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

"Miss, you should wipe your eyes, so when you see the Master later, he won’t be worried. Though you’re angry with him, the Master won’t hold it against you."

When Xiao Keyi reached the old master’s place, his assistant mentioned that Miss had arrived.

The old master was a bit skeptical.

"That little girl seems gentle and timid, but she stays mad for a long time, so don’t joke with me!"

"I’m not sure whether I’m wrong, anyway, the little girl can’t be spoken to lately. I shouldn’t have mentioned her in the first place. Now that I’m old, why talk about her?"

Xiao Keyi overheard this as she entered, gestured for the assistant to keep quiet, and he nodded immediately, which the old master took as agreement, becoming more enthusiastic.

"And indeed, Yiyi has grown up. We shouldn’t control her thoughts anymore. I shouldn’t have spoken at all — she must still be crying. How could I be so impulsive? You didn’t even stop me a bit."

Watching the old master feeling guilty, the assistant didn’t know how to remind him, as Miss was right behind him, and decided to stay silent since Miss had instructed him not to speak.

"What are you doing, old chap, talking to me? Why are you winking all the time? Is there something wrong with your eyes today? You really make this old man angry!"

Upon hearing this, the assistant felt even more wronged. Master, I did this for you, but you not only ignore it, you scold me!

"Grandpa, actually, the granddaughter was at fault too, for confronting you directly and causing you to feel guilty here. I won’t get you angry anymore."

Upon hearing Xiao Keyi’s words, the old master was taken aback and turned around to see his granddaughter smiling behind him, prompting him to kick the assistant’s leg lightly.

"Why didn’t you remind me earlier? You let me keep talking, and now you’re getting out of hand. Do you still want this job?"

At this moment, the old master was like a child, and the assistant could only say grudgingly: "Old master, I reminded you earlier, but you kept scolding me for winking."

Upon hearing this, the old master was utterly speechless. After blaming and shifting blame around, it turned out to be his fault. But now that his granddaughter’s anger had subsided, that was all that mattered.

"It’s okay, as long as Yiyi is happy. Grandfather is fine with anything. I’ve thought it over, and I won’t force you to marry that fiancé anymore. Our Yiyi is excellent and shouldn’t be rejected."

Xiao Keyi’s eyes welled up unexpectedly. Grandpa took such a big step for her out of love.

"Thank you, Grandpa, for understanding me and allowing me to have my own freedom."

The grandfather and granddaughter were indeed having a great time, but at this moment, the maid beside Xiao Keyi was still indignant.

"Old master, earlier the Chairman took Xiao Keyu and directly confronted Miss, and the Chairman said not to acknowledge Miss as his daughter."

Upon hearing the maid mention this now, Xiao Keyi felt a bit angry. Why was this maid so clueless?

However, she understood the maid’s concern and could only glare at her fiercely, then turned back to grin at the old master with embarrassment.

"Actually, Dad was just speaking in anger. You know his personality; whenever he makes a big fuss, it’s nothing. Grandpa, please don’t take it to heart."

After hearing Xiao Keyi’s words, the old master sighed. If only that rebellious son of his listened like his granddaughter, but unfortunately, he seemed less obedient, and that child was really unacceptable.

"Yiyi, rest assured, no matter what happens, Grandpa is by your side. So when you do anything, go ahead with it — no need to worry while I’m here. As for your dad, if he doesn’t recognize you, so be it. A dad like that doesn’t make a difference."

"You’ve grown up now and don’t depend on him anymore. Why bow to him? Yiyi, remember, you’re a proud person; don’t bow to anyone, including your dad."

Originally, Yiyi thought that Grandpa would somewhat discipline her since that person was her dad,

Unexpectedly, Grandpa completely sided with her. Although it hurt to see Dad believe that brat, Dad genuinely broke her heart.

"Grandpa, thank you. I will reconcile with Dad if possible, and as for that child..." Xiao Keyi immediately frowned, "Although I dislike him, I don’t believe I’ve been excessively unfair to him. He’s always provoking me with such scheming, more akin to palace intrigues."

Xiao Keyi’s remarks shocked everyone present except the maid. Typically, those who schemed were little girls, so why was Xiao Keyu so cunning? He had what he needed from Xiao Zhen, so what was he up to?

After Xiao Keyi recounted everything, the old master was particularly furious, wanting to confront Xiao Keyu directly, but Xiao Keyi stopped him.

"Grandpa, didn’t you just tell me to stay calm and not to get caught up with them? Why are you being caught up with them now? Anyway, they lead their lives, we lead ours — there’s no conflict."

Although his granddaughter seemed sensible, the old master knew how much she’d longed for Xiao Zhen after losing her mother. Yet, his son was such a scoundrel, only understanding Xiao Keyu and not his daughter.
