The old lady was wearing a silky gown of excellent texture and a retro hat on her head.

The old lady was also holding a cup of hot tea. She glanced at the old man slowly, then slowly said, "The reason I came back this time was to find my granddaughter. I don't plan to care about anything else."

After hearing this, the old man couldn't help but sigh. He watched Su Xiyao get into the car and drive away in the distance. Then he walked to the sofa, sat down opposite the old lady, and asked, "Are you so sure that your granddaughter must be in the Su family?"

The old lady's brows raised slightly, and a hint of obvious displeasure flashed in her eyes: "What are you talking about? Don't you understand my own daughter? She was so infatuated with that boy from the Su family back then, could she have been entangled with someone else?"

The old man knew he had said the wrong thing and quickly raised his hand and waved: "Don't be angry, I was just asking casually. Nannan is gone, and it's really not easy to find her daughter now. I really don't want to cause any misunderstandings because of my momentary negligence."

Unexpectedly, this sentence completely angered the old lady.

She suddenly stood up from her chair and stared down at the old man opposite her, her eyes filled with uncontrollable anger. "If you don't want to help at all, then just say it directly. Don't be so secretive! I'll find it myself!"

Before she could finish her words, the old lady suddenly turned around and walked out the door.

Seeing this, the old man beside her immediately reached out and held her: "I never said I wouldn't help you, my dear. Listen to me, I will definitely do my best on this matter."

The old lady stopped involuntarily because her arm was grabbed. She turned around and glanced at the old man standing in front of her who looked a little anxious.

In just this glance, the eyes that were originally full of vicissitudes of life suddenly seemed to reveal the charm that she had many years ago when she was still a young girl.

Facing his wife at this moment, the old man also seemed particularly energetic.

He frowned slightly, sighed softly, and then said, "If I had been able to rush back earlier, you wouldn't have to marry that loser Chen An. So many years have passed. If you hadn't been gritting your teeth and persevering, I'm afraid the Chen family would have fallen apart long ago."

Hearing this, the old lady curled her lips in disdain and waved her hand. "These things are already in the past. Why bring them up again? Now that guy is lying in bed and can't move, the remaining brothers in the Chen family are almost fighting over the family property. They all insist that Chen An and I have no children. As long as I can find Nannan's daughter, they will have nothing to say."

Seeing the lonely look of the person in front of him, the old man sitting there said in a more determined tone: "Don't worry, I will help you find your daughter."

the other side

Su Xiyao returned to her home, the Su family mansion, filled with anger.

As soon as I pushed open the door of the villa and entered the house, the oppressive and heavy atmosphere quickly enveloped the entire space like an invisible shackle.

Su Xiyao slowed down her pace, trying to make her steps appear more steady.

She tried to force a smile, but it was clearly filled with nervousness and uneasiness.

She walked into the living room cautiously, looked around in a relaxed tone, and said, "Uncle, aunt, you are all here."

Zheng Shuying's eyes moved between Su Xiyao and Su Zhenwen, and it was obvious that she was trying her best to hide her inner anxiety.

After seeing Su Xiyao enter, Zheng Shuying stood up from her seat awkwardly and slowly approached Su Xiyao, pretending to be somewhat dissatisfied. "Where have you been? Do you know how long we've been waiting for you here?"

Before she finished speaking, Zheng Shuying had already walked to Su Xiyao.

Taking advantage of this gap, Zheng Shuying calmly and gently held Su Xiyao's wrist, trying to guide or push her upstairs, obviously wanting her to temporarily avoid the current unpleasant situation.

But before they could take a few steps, the atmosphere in the air suddenly became extremely solemn, and then Su Zhenwen's cold command came: "Stop."

Hearing this, Zheng Shuying's heart suddenly tightened. Realizing that the situation might be bad, her brows immediately frowned into a deep "川" shape, and she could only helplessly let go of Su Xiyao's wrist.

Feeling the immense pressure from her elders, Su Xiyao cautiously took a step forward and called out softly, "Uncle..."

At this moment, Su Jin's voice rang out from the side, his tone carrying obvious sarcasm. "Oh, this is truly bizarre! I didn't expect the Xiao family's young lady to be so modest and actually willing to call me uncle. This is truly a great blessing for our family!"

Listening to Su Jin's sarcastic words, Su Xiyao couldn't help but widen her eyes and shoot angry eyes directly at Su Jin, but the other party was not affected at all. Instead, he raised his chin and showed a smug expression.

Ever since Su Xiyao married into the Xiao family and became a member of that family, her attitude towards her former brother Su Jin has changed drastically. She often appears very arrogant and rude, giving people a condescending feeling.

Su Jin has always held a grudge against this and has been looking for an opportunity to teach her a lesson.

Now, he finally seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

"Su Xiyao."

Su Zhenwen slowly turned his head, his eyes icy cold as ice as he looked at the girl in front of him. He said sternly, "Everyone in the city knows about those things now. You were the one who framed your fiancé and your biological sister. I have to admit, it's really embarrassing for someone like you to be so shameless!"

Faced with such accusations, Su Xiyao hurriedly explained: "Uncle, I really didn't expect things to develop into what they are today. I was..."

She was halfway through her words when she seemed to not know how to continue.

"I had hoped that after you established a connection with the Xiao family, you would be able to help revitalize our Su family's business. But since you became the Xiao family's young lady, you have done nothing good except causing trouble for us. I think it's much more stable than when Su Yanqing was in charge."

Su Zhenwen's voice was filled with helplessness and disappointment, and he stared at his once hopeful daughter with a frown.

Hearing this, Su Xiyao, who originally had an apologetic look on her face, immediately looked up, with a cold look in her eyes.

She felt a chill in her heart, as if she had been betrayed by the person closest to her.

She frowned slightly, stared at Su Zhenwen and asked, "Uncle, what do you mean by saying this? If you really think I'm not as good as Su Yanqing, then call her back. But my family was so heartless in order to distance themselves from her. I think even if I go to find Su Yanqing now, she may not come back to help."

There was a hint of sarcasm and helplessness in his tone.
