Xiao Ran's sudden apology left Wen Lu somewhat confused. What happened to the plan to get revenge on the scumbag and the bitch? How did it turn out like this? The scumbag has already apologized to her, so can she still continue with the revenge?

The answer is, of course, revenge is necessary. The original owner is dead, and she can no longer hear apologies. Why should the bad guys be let off the hook?

"that……"

"Little Lulu, come in. Grandma has been waiting for you here for a long time. I thought you didn't know that Grandma was celebrating her birthday here today. I was afraid you wouldn't be able to find her, so I had the housekeeper wait for you outside early this morning."

Madam Xiao looked at Wen Lu with loving eyes and a big smile on her face. Her anger towards Xiao Ran had completely disappeared, and you couldn't tell that the old lady had just lost her temper.

Wen Lu saw that Old Madam Xiao was looking at her expectantly. She smiled faintly at Xiao Ran, said nothing, and walked directly past Xiao Ran towards the old lady. When she reached the old lady's side, she sweetly called out "Grandma" to Old Madam Xiao.

Hearing Wen Lu's sweet and soft voice, Xiao Ran felt a sudden pain in his heart. He didn't know why he felt this way, but he felt very uncomfortable.

Xiao Ran didn't want to look at Wen Lu anymore, and he didn't want to see Wen Lu getting along well with Old Madam Xiao. He strode towards the door.

As they left the lounge, he thoughtfully closed the door behind them.

Grandma Xiao looked at the closed door and sighed softly. She took Wen Lu's fair hand in her aged hand and gently squeezed it.

"Lulu, I'm sorry, Grandma didn't raise Xiao Ran well. But don't worry, Grandma will definitely find you a good man to take care of you. Grandma has many grandsons, and they will all be here in a little while. You can choose whichever one you like. Don't worry, Grandma will definitely make the decision for you."

When Grandma Xiao looked at Wen Lu, her bright eyes were filled with doting light, as if she would agree to anything Wen Lu asked for.

Looking at the expectant look in Grandma Xiao's eyes, Wen Lu smiled faintly, then shook her head and said with some helplessness.

"Grandma, I'm still young. I'm only eighteen and still in school. I'm planning to go back to school in a couple of days. We can talk about these things when I'm older. Don't worry, if I can't get married in the future, I'll definitely ask you to arrange a boyfriend for me."

Wen Lu looked at the old lady and joked, "Someone like her is destined to be alone. How could she possibly get married?"

Moreover, the Xiao family consists of only a bunch of idiots, and she really doesn't think much of any of them.

Seeing that Wen Lu was serious about refusing, Old Mrs. Xiao did not continue the topic and directly changed the subject.

"I heard from the housekeeper that you left the Wen family? What happened? Wen Zhengnan actually kicked you out of the Wen family?"

“It wasn’t him who kicked me out, it was my own choice to leave. I… sigh, Grandma, please don’t ask anymore. I’m just an adopted daughter. Now that their biological daughter has come back, I should have left.”

As she spoke, Wen Lu lowered her head, and a tear fell from her eye, landing directly on the back of Old Madam Xiao's hand.

When Madam Xiao saw the tear on the back of her hand, she was immediately shocked. It was as if that tear was hot water, directly scalding the old lady's heart.

“My darling, why are you crying? It’s okay. If the Wen family can’t tolerate you, there’s still the Xiao family. From now on, you’ll live in the Xiao family. With Grandma there, I’d like to see who dares to treat you badly.”

Grandma Xiao looked at Wen Lu with heartache. She was at a loss because of Wen Lu's tears. This was the first time she had seen Wen Lu cry since she grew up, and it really broke Grandma Xiao's heart.

"Don't cry, don't cry. You still have Grandma. Today you will go back to the Xiao family with Grandma. Don't worry, with Grandma here, no one can bully you."

"No need, Grandma. I already have a place to stay. I don't want to go to the Xiao family with you. And don't worry about me, Grandma. I'll be fine."

As she spoke, Wen Lu wiped away her tears of bravery with a pitiful look on her face and reached out to hug Grandma Xiao tightly.

"Grandma Xiao, you are the best person to me in this world. You must take good care of your health. With you here, I have someone to rely on."

Hearing Wen Lu's words, Old Mrs. Xiao felt even more tender. She felt that Wen Lu was really too pitiful. How dare Wen Zhengnan and Chu Qin bully Wen Lu like this? She would definitely make them suffer.

"Don't worry, Grandma will definitely not let them get away with this. Grandma knows how to make them suffer even more."

Madam Xiao was already very dissatisfied with Su Yu's seduction of Xiao Ran. Now, seeing Wen Lu in such a pitiful state, her hatred intensified. She was determined to make the Wen family suffer a great deal in order to quell her anger.

Just then, there was a knock on the door. Wen Lu released Madam Xiao, wiped away her tears, stood up, walked to the door, and opened the door to the lounge.

The butler stood outside the door and greeted Wen Lu respectfully. Seeing Wen Lu's red eyes, he frowned, wanted to say something, but swallowed it back. Finally, he walked into the lounge with a gloomy expression.

"Madam, the banquet outside has already begun. The master asked me to come and invite you over."

"Alright, let's all go together then." With that, the old lady stood up, leaning on her cane. She reached out to Wen Lu, who was standing to the side, "Lu Lu, come and help Grandma, and come with Grandma."

Upon hearing Madam Xiao's words, Wen Lu understood what she meant, but she refused without hesitation. She had her own things to do and did not want to get involved in the affairs of the Wen and Xiao families; she was not interested in either of them.

"Grandma, it's not appropriate for me to stand by your side today. I have no connection with the Wen family anymore. I just want to quietly celebrate your birthday."

Wen Lu's refusal was quite obvious. The old lady looked at Wen Lu and felt even more sorry for her, which increased her resentment towards Wen Zhengnan.

How could they be so cruel to such a cute and pitiful little girl? It's absolutely outrageous!

"In that case, Grandma will respect your decision. Grandma will go over there now, please come over quickly!"

After speaking, the old lady left the lounge with the help of the butler. She turned to the side, seemingly talking to the butler about something.

Wen Lu followed behind the two, walking out leisurely and unhurriedly.

At this moment, all the pitiful helplessness in Wen Lu's eyes disappeared, replaced by an expression of watching the show.

Seeing Wen Lu come out, Wang Xiuli also emerged from the corner and followed behind her, teasingly saying, "I didn't expect Miss Wen to be engaged at such a young age!"
