C292 As Fresh and Refined as Always
Brother-in-law?
The malicious intent in Qiyun's heart spread like vines. That was his brother. Unfortunately, someone wasn't willing to be his brother. He wasn't that despicable. He was in a hurry and still wanted to acknowledge a brother-in-law.
That person even disdained to be his brother-in-law.
Only Yu Xiaowen, this fool!
He cursed Yu Xiaowen's stupidity in his heart, but there was another kind of bitter feeling that wanted to climb up. His instincts were not right, so he immediately suppressed that strange feeling. Pretending to be puzzled, he asked, "Is it such a coincidence? If I remember correctly, the Su's Group should be in the city center, right? Recently, the Welfare Institute is not on his way home anymore?"
"This. . . " Yu Xiaowen did not know how to reply.
"Actually, it's nothing much? I was just casually asking. " Qiyun laughed and obviously changed the topic. He said, "Sister, what's your name again? When will I have the chance to take a look? "
If he could trick Yu Xiaowen out and become the godfather of the little girl again, he could imagine how ugly Su Qiyang's face would be.
Yu Xiaowen's mind was distracted, but a knot was planted in her heart.
"Qing'an!" She said.
"Qing'an?" Qiyun's voice was deliberately lengthened, and it sounded very exaggerated. "Why is she also called Qing'an?"
Yu Xiaowen did not understand and continued to ask, "What's wrong with calling Qing'an? Is there anyone else who is called Qing'an?"
The butler who was playing by the side heard these words and his expression changed. Who did Madam call? What was the purpose of that person mentioning this?
On the other side of the earpiece, Qiyun's tone was unclear. He stammered, "Ah? No, no. No one's name is Qing'an. You heard it wrong. I was just curious and felt that this name was very nice!"
How was this an explanation? It clearly made Yu Xiaowen's doubt deepen.
And what he said next proved this point even more. He stuttered and said, "Ah, Big Sister, I remember. I still have a lot of things to do. I'll contact you another day!"
After he finished speaking, he hung up in a hurry. He did not even get a chance for Yu Xiaowen to respond.
Du du. . .
Yu Xiaowen stared at the phone that had been hung up, her face full of confusion.
From the corner of her eye, she noticed that the butler seemed to be secretly looking at her. Her grayish-brown eyes looked over and she asked, "Why are you looking at me?"
"No, nothing?" The butler quickly retracted his gaze.
The way he avoided his gaze indicated that something must have happened. Yu Xiaowen could not follow the phone to find Qiyun and question him. She could not even ask the butler, whom she had been with for a long time.
She put on a stern face and said, "Did Su Qiyang ask you to hide something from me again?"
"No, no!" The butler shook like a rattle drum.
What a joke!
His mouth was very tight. If Madam wanted to pry out some information, then she really found the wrong person.
Just like how the butler was praising in his heart, Yu Xiaowen had been pestering him for a long time and did not get a single useful word from him. She was so angry that she could only choose to question the true self who might hide it from him.
She called Su Qiyang, but after two rings, she was directly pressed down!
Yu Xiaowen was very unhappy that he did not answer her phone. Just as she was about to call him again, her phone rang. She received a message from Su Qiyang.
He said, "I'm sorry, my dear. I have something very important to do now. Wait for me to call you back!"
A message calmed Yu Xiaowen's mood.
Forget it!
If he was busy with work, then he would not disturb him anymore!
Yu Xiaowen replied, "Okay!" Then, she threw herself back into taking care of Qing'an.
Su Qiyang was actually not busy with work at this time. He was currently sitting in the Su family villa in the Water Controlling Bay. His grandmother was sitting opposite him, and his younger brother, Su Lyi, was sitting diagonally opposite him.
His black eyes were as sharp as knives as they swept towards Su Lyi, carrying a temperature that could freeze people to death.
Su Lyi wished he could swear to the heavens, and said, "Big Brother, you can't blame me for this. It wasn't me who told Grandma about this. I also don't know how he found out!"
The old lady of Su family had a solemn expression on her old face, and said in a deep voice, "You don't need to blame your younger brother. I found out about this from the Lu family!"
She paused and patted her chest. She said, "I really raised a good grandson. He moved out before he became an adult. I refused to come back to see me without begging, and now it's even more amazing. He got married and gave birth to a child. . . You actually hid it from me! Yang Yang doesn't need me to worry about such a good grandson. Where can I find him?! Cough, cough, cough. . . "
How could Su Qiyang not know that he was lying? After so many years, his grandmother's moves against him were still as fresh and refined as ever!
After all, she was an old man who pampered him as he grew up. She knew his hatred towards this old residence. Unless it was necessary, she was not willing to take half a step into this place. She would try her best to satisfy it, and she would also try her best to choose from the outside when it came to family gatherings.
Hearing that she seemed to be really coughing, Mo Ran's sword-like eyebrows were filled with worry.
"Grandma, do you want me to call a doctor to take a look at you?"
"No need!" Old Madame Su waved her hand angrily and said, "Isn't this what you all have been waiting for? If I die earlier, no one will bother you!"
Su Lyi quickly spoke up for his brother. "Grandma, why would we look forward to this? My brother and I have always wanted you to live a long life!"
"Live a long life?" Old Madame Su said sarcastically, "I am old, but I am not muddle-headed. Do you really think I do not know that you are saying good things to coax me? The heavens have treated me well, allowing me to live until today? I am already very satisfied and there is nothing worth it. Cough, cough, cough, cough. . . "
Another round of violent coughs!
It was as if he was going to cough out his heart and lungs.
Su Qiyang was not only worried when he heard that, but he also felt guilty. However, he did not show it on his face despite his joy and anger. So everyone just looked at his face and did not dig deeper into what he was thinking. No one knew what he was thinking.
He ordered Su Lyi to say, "You called the family doctor. "
"Oh, okay!" Su Lyi answered. He took out his phone and dialed the number as he walked out.
Su Qiyang got up and walked to Old Madame Su's side. He squatted by her legs and observed her expression. He questioned the old butler, Mr. Zhang, who was standing beside Old Madame Su.
"Mr. Zhang, what is going on? Didn't you have a physical examination before? Didn't you say that grandma's physical fitness is very healthy? Is it rare to see her in the same age group?"
Mr. Zhang had been working in the Su family since Su Qiyang's father's generation. All these years, he had been the one to arrange all the big and small matters in the Su family.
When Su Qiyang's parents died in a car accident, the Su family was in chaos. The two children were still young. Old Madame Su was so sad that she could not bear it. People outside were waiting to see the Su family make a fool of themselves, and those uncles in the family only wanted to fight for the family property.
Only Mr. Zhang remained calm. His honest words made sense to Su Qiyang and made him take the responsibility of the Su family. For a long time, he was the one who helped Su Qiyang take over the Su family and Su's bit by bit.
Therefore, although Su Qiyang was interrogating him, his attitude was still very respectful to him.
"Cough cough!"
Mr. Zhang coughed twice and looked at Su Qiyang with sympathy. He did not want to cooperate with the old lady to force him to submit, but he also watched little master grow up. He was also very curious about what kind of woman little master would fall in love with.
He was also curious about the young little master. He was curious if he had inherited the good looks and temperament of a man from the Su family.
So, I'm sorry, young master!
He said, "These few days, the weather has been cold. Some typhoid and cold are inevitable. Moreover, Madam's health is indeed not as good as before!"
Su Qiyang trusted him, so naturally he believed him. If there were still thirty percent suspicions that this was his grandmother's trick, these suspicions would have been thrown to the back of his mind.
He looked at Old Madame Su from the bottom and felt that there were more wrinkles on her face. Previously, he could still see that she had black hair, but now it was almost impossible to find her.
The reality of refusing to admit it was right in front of him. Su Qiyang's eyes were a little hot.
When the old lady of Su family saw this, she knew that she had achieved her goal of softening his heart. Taking advantage of the situation, she chased after him and said, "Grandma knows how you feel, but it has been so many years. You are still brooding over this matter. Grandma also feels heartache when she sees this. I won't force you, but my days are really one day short. I don't have any big requests. I just want to be buried before I do. In a few years, my children and grandchildren will feel that such a small request. . . Can't you agree to grandma's request? "
This move was called retreating in order to advance!
Su Qiyang had already raised the white flag in his heart.
His eyes were slightly red as he said, "It's not that I don't want to introduce her to you earlier, but the relationship between me and her is really a little complicated. Furthermore, the things between us have never stopped. I keep feeling that God is teasing the relationship between me and her. Otherwise, why would there be so many twists and turns between us?"
Old Madame Su caught the pain in his eyes when he said those words. She was shocked. If it wasn't for that old man from the Lu family coming to her place to discipline her own grandson, she really wouldn't have known that she already had a granddaughter-in-law, a grandson, and a granddaughter.
After she found out, she asked Mr. Zhang to investigate, but this kid had protected her wife and child too well. She didn't find any substantial information.
The only thing she knew was that Old Lu said that his grandson sent his granddaughter to prison for a crazy woman.
In front of outsiders, no matter if she had seen her or not, she would always protect her own family.
That Old Lu was naturally chased away by her scolding. But now, it seemed that Old Lu was not lying. His grandson had taken a crazy woman.
Then she more or less understood why Su Qiyang wanted to hide it from her.
Because she would never let this kind of woman enter the Su family. But now, it seemed like the matter wasn't as simple as it seemed. Could it be that this woman went crazy later on?
Then why did she go crazy?
Old Madame Su's stomach was full of questions, waiting for Su Qiyang to answer her.
