Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Now, the outside world was full of rumors. There was even news of Su Yan and Yue Chuang’s marriage. At first, he didn’t really believe it, but later, he accidentally eavesdropped on the small talk of the hospital’s nurse. He didn’t know when Su Yan had an engagement with the Yue family, but he clearly remembered that Yue Chuang was already married. Later, he got someone to investigate further and found out that Yue Chuang had just divorced his first wife two months ago. In addition, Su Yan was like a granddaughter-in-law who went to the hospital every day to serve Old Madam Yue. This made him feel that he was going to lose Su Yan, and for good.
This realization made him feel a chill all over his body. It was as if he had fallen into an ice lake. The bone-chilling feeling made him feel as if he couldn’t breathe. It was as if he couldn’t breathe without Su Yan. Wei Zhou’s eyes darkened as he watched Su Yan get into Yue Chuang’s car. He stumbled a few steps and his back slammed against a jujube tree. He watched as the luxury car drove off into the distance. He felt as if his heart was about to explode.
Wei Zhou suddenly remembered that Su Yan had told him more than once that everyone had to take responsibility for their own actions. He also had to take responsibility for his three years of mistakes. Perhaps this feeling of suffocation and heartache was the greatest punishment Su Yan could give him.
After Su Yan attended Old Madam Yue’s funeral, the rumors between him and Yue Chuang spread more and more widely on the internet. Yue Chuang was the sole legal heir of the three generations of the Yue family. Although his marriage had failed, as a divorced man, he was still the noble that many girls wanted to cling to. Not to mention one divorce, even if he was divorced eight or nine times, it would still be the same. However, what disappointed all the socialites in Xiang City was that ever since the divorce, Yue Chuang lived in seclusion every day. Other than working, he stayed at home. The only event he attended was Xia Jiang’s birthday banquet. He didn’t give socialites like them any chance to get close to him.
Now that Su Yan and Yue Chuang were so close to each other, they would naturally attract attention. Moreover, being able to go to the Yue family’s ancestral grave was already special treatment. No one would believe that she didn’t have any special relationship with Yue Chuang. After all, not everyone could go to the ancestral grave. Even the daughters of the family were generally not allowed to enter, let alone an outsider like Su Yan.
The news about Su Yan and Yue Chuang was also spread like wildfire. It was only yesterday that Lan Jian finally forced Li Rong to reveal Wei Zhou’s whereabouts. Only then did he know that Wei Zhou had gone to Xiang City. As for Li Rong saying that Wei Zhou was going to discuss business, Lan Jian didn’t believe it at all. He had originally planned to go to Xiang City to join in the fun, but before he could take action, Wei Zhou had actually returned to Jiang Du.
However, what caught Lan Jian and secretary Li Rong by surprise was that the first thing Wei Zhou did when he returned to Jiang Du was to personally go to the Wei family’s villa and chase Mrs. Wei and the other three out of the villa. That day, Wei Zhou had already given them multiple ultimatums and asked them to apologize to Su Yan, but not only did they not do it, Zhong Cuiping even went to cause trouble for Su Yan the next day. At that time, Wei Zhou had given her a “Death sentence”from the bottom of his heart.
During the period when Wei Zhou was on a business trip, Zhong Cuiping and her three wives were also feeling uneasy. Thinking of Wei Zhou’s expression that day, they knew that Wei Zhou wasn’t just saying that. They had lived in the Wei family’s villa for so many years, and now they were suddenly asked to move out. This wasn’t something they could bear, but now, the entire Wei family was under Wei Zhou’s control. As for the collateral relatives of the Wei family, they weren’t worth mentioning in Wei Zhou’s eyes. They all had to listen to Wei Zhou, so they couldn’t count on them at all.
Before Old Master Wei passed away, he had already made a will, giving 95% of the Wei family’s property to Wei Zhou. Wei Zhou’s father, Wei Ming, wasn’t as powerful as Wei Zhou, the eldest grandson. Later on, Wei Ming also passed away due to an accident. As Wei Zhou’s mother, Zhong Cuiping’s status in the Wei family naturally rose. However, everyone in the Wei family knew very well that Wei Zhou’s attitude towards Zhong Cuiping, his biological mother, had never been very good. Now that she had angered Wei Zhou and was driven out of the Wei family’s villa, one could imagine the miserable life she would lead in the future. The so-called rich and powerful families didn’t have an upright life. It was hard to tell if the terrible things that happened in the Wei family in the past were real or fake. It had spread outside the Wei family since the moment Wei Zhou was born.
The people in the upper class were snobby. Without Wei Zhou’s help, Zhong Cuiping, as Wei Ming’s second wife, as well as Wei Yanbing and Wei Shani, would naturally be driven out of the Wei family. Zhong Cuiping had thought that Wei Zhou said so in a fit of anger, and as long as the three of them performed well, it would be over. However, Wei Zhou was serious. When he came back, he chased them away.
