The fish pond connects the past and present, and the tyrants of the fallen country seek fame every d

Even though no one chose to leave this awkward situation with them, their attitude towards the host was obviously no longer as positive and enthusiastic, and the whole atmosphere instantly became a little stiff.

Due to frequent accidents, the celebration of Mrs. Wu’s 60th birthday, which was supposed to be full of laughter and joy, ended in a hurry and dullness, and did not achieve the expected effect at all.

When night fell, the only person left in the huge villa was the girl who gave everyone a headache, Guo Yingying, besides the Wu family members who were still reluctant to leave.

Mr. Wu, however, pretended not to notice Guo Yingying standing trembling in the corner. He walked straight towards his son and sternly ordered in an unquestionable voice: "Kneel down!"

Faced with the sudden accusation, Wu Fan was naturally unwilling to accept it, but the habits he developed from his father's strict teaching for a long time made him finally bow his head and succumb to this irresistible force.

Unwillingly, he asked, "Dad, what mistake have I made this time? Please tell me clearly."

Mr. Wu responded coldly, "Do you remember how you confidently promised that you could persuade Su Yuan to change her mind and support you? What's the result now?"

Hearing such a direct and cruel question from the elder, the thought of retorting and defending myself suddenly vanished, replaced by helplessness and deep frustration.

In order to find an excuse to relieve himself of some psychological burden, Wu Fan said weakly: "It was just an accident... I don't know why Su Yuan would use counterfeit goods against us!"

After hearing his son's explanation of putting all the blame on others, Mr. Wu's anger, which was about to flare up, miraculously subsided, and he looked even more exhausted than before.

"Your fault is not here, but because you took in this useless woman!"

Mr. Wu bluntly pointed out that Guo Yingying had become a useless burden and had made no contribution to the entire family.

Guo Yingying was so shocked by these words that she suddenly raised her head, her eyes full of disbelief and fear. She looked at Mrs. Wu for help, hoping to get some comfort and support from her.

However, Mrs. Wu just glanced at her coldly and said nothing.

Mrs. Wu walked forward and patted Mr. Wu on the back, trying to comfort him and tell him not to be angry anymore.

"There's no need to get angry over those insignificant people. My son will definitely be able to capture Su Yuan, and then those precious antiques will be ours!"

There was a hint of hope and determination in Mrs. Wu's words.

Mr. Wu's ears were almost blistered after hearing this, but he still suppressed his impatience and said, "Okay, don't mention this anymore. How has my work been in the past few months?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he seemed tired of continuing to discuss this topic.

When Wu Fan heard his father say this, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that he had finally passed this hurdle with his father.

To please Mr. Wu, he hurriedly bent down, with a humble and submissive smile on his face, praising the achievements he had made since taking over the family business. "Dad, you see, since I took over, our family business has been thriving."

"In addition, I have also won over a branch of the Yu family. I will definitely force Su Yuan to step aside in the future!"

Wu Fan said this with full confidence, which surprised his father who always treated him like trash.

Obviously, he didn't expect his son to have such ability.

Mr. Wu immediately smiled and patted Wu Fan on the shoulder. "Then you have to maintain this relationship well. By the way, is the money on your card enough? If not, I can transfer some more to you."

His tone was full of love and support.

Wu Fan nodded happily, "That's enough. Thank you for your support, Dad!"

At this moment, Guo Yingying looked at the loving father and smiling son in front of her, and suddenly felt like a superfluous person who could not find her place in this family.

A strong sense of loss surged in her heart, making her feel overwhelmed. She just wanted to leave this painful place as soon as possible.

So Guo Yingying took a taxi and hurried back to her residence.

She couldn't wait to tell Zhuang Zhenyan everything that happened today, her voice filled with helplessness and grievance.

Zhuang Zhenyan was heartbroken upon hearing this. She hugged Guo Yingying tightly and tried to comfort her, but the resentment in her heart kept surging like a tide. "Su Yuan, you actually humiliated my daughter in front of so many people. No matter what, I will make you pay the price for this!"

In the villa.

Su Yuan, who had been nervous all night, finally relaxed.

This night seemed to her like a long century.

The sound of her heartbeat echoed in the silent room, and every breath she took seemed to regulate her emotions and relieve herself from the tension.

She exhaled deeply. "I finally got it back. This jade bracelet is of great significance. Next time I visit my grandmother, I can give it to her so that she can feel my care."

Yang Sheng handed over a glass of water, his movements gentle and cautious, his tone full of doubt.

"You didn't call the police after all this. Aren't you worried? I feel a little worried watching this. After all, this is a big deal."

Su Yuan seemed to have discovered a new world. There was a flash of surprise in her eyes. She stared at Yang Sheng as if she was seeing him for the first time.

"Oh, so you're curious about this, too. I thought you were just watching quietly from the sidelines, but I didn't expect you to react so strongly."

In an instant, Yang Sheng returned to his usual calm expression.

There was a barely perceptible calmness in his eyes, as if nothing could move him.

"It seems I still don't know you well enough."

Su Yuan said with some regret: "Calling the police won't give us any evidence against Guo Yingying, and I don't like protracted battles. Sometimes, a direct solution is the best solution."

Her eyes revealed determination and resoluteness, as if she had made up her mind.

A glimmer of understanding flashed in Yang Sheng's eyes.

Indeed, it is not easy to deal with only a confession without other physical or witness evidence. It would be more appropriate to let her completely withdraw from the social circle.

Such punishment may be more painful than going to the police station.

Perhaps this is exactly the result she wanted, to solve the problem in the most direct way.

Not caring what Yang Sheng was thinking, Su Yuan held the bracelet in her hand and looked at it carefully.

This is a piece of jade with warm color and crystal clearness, which seems to be able to reflect people's hearts.

Its beauty is breathtaking and captivating at first sight.

"This jade is really beautiful. No wonder Guo Yingying fell in love with it at first sight. It's really a good thing."

Thanks to Xiao Yanheng's help, otherwise I would have to swallow my anger and deal with Wu Fan's tricky demands.

That guy always causes trouble for me at critical moments and sometimes even threatens my safety.
