“I, no… how could I…” Old Madam Rong was already scared out of her wits. “Yanyun, this is a misunderstanding… I love you so much, how could I…”

“Ha, it’s really funny. A murderer killing someone and saying that this was a misunderstanding, even saying that she likes the victim and thinking that that could cover the fact that she killed someone?”

Rong Xuelong scoffed.

“What kind of analogy is that? I didn’t kill anyone!” Old Madam Rong struggled desperately.

“Aren’t the two babies in my stomach human lives?” Su Yanyun didn’t give the old woman a chance to breathe and pressed on.

“I…” Old Madam Rong still wanted to argue.

“Okay, stop talking!” Old Master Rong finally exploded.

He looked at Old Madam Rong darkly. “Shuyu, you disappoint me too much.”

“Old Master, I…”

Old Madam Rong wanted to cry.

“Someone, take Old Madam away!” Old Master Rong had already ordered. “From today onwards, without my permission, she is not allowed to take a single step out of her room! She is not allowed to have any contact with the outside world. Eldest daughter-in-law, go and count the properties in Old Madam’s hands and prepare to take over them.”

“Old Master.” Old Madam Rong cried. “How can you treat me like this because of a few juniors’ accusations? Locking me up and even handing over all the properties under my name? We’ve been husband and wife for decades, how can you be so heartless?”

“My punishment for you is already light enough.” The Old Master gritted his teeth. “If it weren’t for our decades of relationship as husband and wife, it wouldn’t even be overboard for me to tear you into pieces! Your actions make you unworthy of being a mother!”

“Old Master…”

“What are you waiting for! Do something!” The Old Master yelled at the bodyguards.

The bodyguards didn’t dare to slack off and hurriedly pulled Old Madam.

Old Madam Rong was in tears. She looked at the Old Master pleadingly and then looked viciously at Su Yanyun and Rong Xuelong.

But in the end, she was dragged out by the bodyguards.

Old Master Rong closed his eyes and took a deep breath. When he opened his eyes again, he seemed to have aged a lot.

But the years in his eyes disappeared. His fierce gaze swept across the crowd and he said again, “Your mother’s matter can be considered a warning to you all. Our Rong family has no reason to fight internally. If I catch you, at best, I will confiscate your property and rights. At worst, I will chase you out of the Rong family and take legal action! Do you hear me?”

These words were clearly meant for the Rong family’s second branch to hear.

Seeing everyone lower their heads and look obedient, Old Master Rong sighed at Su Yanyun. “Yanyun, I apologize for your grandmother’s actions. It’s my fault, for her to do such a thing. I hope you can forgive Grandpa’s negligence on account of my old bones.”

Old Master Rong didn’t let Su Yanyun forgive the Old Madam.

He probably also thought that Old Madam Rong’s behavior was unforgivable.

Thus, Su Yanyun also replied wisely. “Grandpa, why are you talking about forgiveness? If it weren’t for you supporting me and the baby today, I’m afraid I would have already been framed and chased out. Yanyun is grateful to Grandpa, so I will definitely get along well with my family.”

“Okay.” The Old Master smiled again. “Linyi has good taste indeed. Rong Wu.”

He suddenly ordered a serious-looking and sturdy young man beside him. “Go and bring me the pair of emerald locks I prepared!”

“What?” Second Madam Rong was shocked. “Father, didn’t you say that those locks were to be given to our Lirong’s twins?”
