Chapter 242: Grandfather (Part 3)

Zhulang saw the old man throwing the scroll at him, so he picked it up and held it in his hand. Then he shook his hand, and the scroll broke into pieces and fell to the ground.

"You...you..." The old man was so angry that he was shaking all over, but he could do nothing.

For more than ten years, their family has been imprisoned in this dark room. They can do nothing but maintain their last bit of stubbornness. Even the lives of his wife and son are in the hands of these evil people.

"Uncle!" Su Chengwei smiled complacently, "I advise you not to be so stubborn, otherwise your aunt and cousin will suffer more. When the time comes, don't blame me, your nephew, for not reminding you!"

The old man gritted his teeth and said, "What exactly are you doing here today?"

"Tsk tsk tsk!" Su Chengwei laughed, "Uncle, if you weren't so gnashing your teeth, I think our chat would be more pleasant."

"Hmph!" The old man turned his head away and refused to look at Su Chengwei again.

"Well, forget it. I respect the old and love the young, so I won't bother with you, uncle!" Su Chengwei smiled and brushed off the non-existent dust on the hem of his clothes. "Uncle, besides me, your nephew, do you have any other relatives? Oh, yes, except my cousin."

The old man turned his head abruptly upon hearing this and said, "If you dare to touch Yun'er, I will crash into the ground and die right here. You will never get those things in your lifetime."

Su Chengwei's face suddenly darkened: "Old man, don't push your luck."

"If you don't believe me, just try it!" The old man's face showed a hint of cruelty, and he stared at Su Chengwei viciously.

Su Chengwei just stared at the old man, neither of them spoke, and they were in a stalemate.

After a while, Su Chengwei sneered: "Okay, uncle, if you don't want to talk about it, then don't talk about it. At worst, I can check it myself. I don't believe it. I can't find it out, but..."

Su Chengwei stared at the old man fiercely and said, "Let me be frank. If there ever comes a day in the future when that thing can be opened without the blood of your family, I will not be polite. I think, since you are so smart, you will definitely know what the consequences will be."

"Hmph, believe it or not, if you have the guts, you can kill our entire family now. Let's see if you can still get those things!" said the old man without any fear.

"Okay, old man, you're amazing!" Su Chengwei sneered, "In a few months, it will be the day we agreed on. If you still don't tell me by then, I won't be as easy to talk to as I am now!"

"Hmph!" The old man just snorted and said nothing more.

"Let's go!" Su Chengwei stood up and said to Zhulang.

After saying this, he flicked his sleeves and was about to leave the dark room.

Yuan Ziyou watched from the side while explaining the situation outside to Huo Xifei. When he learned that Su Chengwei was leaving, Huo Xifei said, "You'er, let's leave with Su Chengwei first and find a chance to come back in later!"

"Brother Xi, that's my grandfather, really my grandfather, and my uncle too. I just don't know where my grandmother is." Yuan Ziyu was a little excited, especially the old man's words protecting Liu just now, which made Yuan Ziyu even more moved. She could see that her grandfather must love her mother very much, otherwise he would not threaten Su Chengwei with death.

"I know, but it's not the right time yet. Let's find some time to come in later, okay?" Huo Xifei said.

Yuan Ziyu naturally understood. Not to mention that he still hadn't figured out how to get out, it was not appropriate to show up now. Otherwise, how could he explain to his grandfather how he and Huo Xifei suddenly appeared.

Yuan Ziyu glanced at the old man again, then followed Su Chengwei out, returned to the study, and figured out the location of all the mechanisms in the dark room.

"Zhulang, send someone to investigate the origins of the group of people who investigated the incident more than ten years ago." Su Chengwei paced back and forth in the study and ordered Zhulang.

"yes!"

"Also, go check on Yuan Qifeng and see if he has done anything abnormal recently!" Su Chengwei squinted his eyes and thought for a while, then instructed again.

"Master, do you suspect that Miss Su knows what happened back then?" Zhulang asked.

"It's hard to say. After thinking about it, I realized that Old Man Su doesn't have any other relatives. Otherwise, how could no relative come to visit him in all these years?" Su Chengwei said with narrowed eyes.

"Master, do you think it could be the Liu family..." Zhulang asked after thinking for a while.

"Impossible!" Su Chengwei said, "Back then, because of Su Zhiyun's marriage, the Liu and Su families had a huge quarrel. Later, in order to avoid implicating the Liu family, that old man Su deliberately came to the Liu family and caused a big commotion, and cut off all ties with the Liu family. The Liu family is already full of hatred for the Su family, so why would they come to help old man Su?"

"Then..." Zhulang frowned and thought for a while, but couldn't think of anything, so he said, "Master, I'll start checking right away."

"Well, go ahead and investigate thoroughly. The matter is almost over, and we can't allow any mistakes to occur at this time!"

"Yes, Master, rest assured. I will definitely find those people and will not delay your work!"

"Well, you are a good one!" Su Chengwei nodded: "You have worked hard over the years. When this matter is settled, the master and I will ask for a reward for you!"

Zhu Lang was overjoyed when he heard this: "Thank you very much for your support, Master!"

"Okay, let's go back!"

Watching Su Chengwei and Zhulang leave the study, Yuan Ziyou frowned and asked Huo Xifei, "Brother Xi, who is the young master Su Chengwei is talking about?"

"I don't know!" Huo Xifei said with a serious face, "But now we know that Su Chengwei does have a master behind him, and his master wants to seize the Su family's ancestral items, but we don't know why. Perhaps the Su family's ancestral items are very important to the master behind Su Chengwei."

"Why don't we go ask our grandfather?" Yuan Ziyou said, "Anyway, I know how to get in and out of the dark room now. Let's go to the dark room after everyone is asleep."

"OK!"

After midnight, the entire Su Mansion fell into a deep sleep.

Yuan Ziyu listened carefully to the movements outside the study, and after confirming that there was no one outside, he left the Qiongjiang Pavilion, quietly opened the mechanism of the Duobao Pavilion, and entered the secret room.

Following the previous route, Yuan Ziyu came to the door of the dark room.

Yuan Ziyu brought Huo Xifei out of the Qiongjiang Pavilion. The two looked at each other and then opened the door of the dark room.

The old man had not rested yet, but was sitting there in a daze, his face full of sorrow.

Hearing the noise at the door, the old man thought it was Su Chengwei who had returned, so he snorted coldly without turning his head: "You just left, why are you here again? I won't say anything now!"

"Grandfather!"

When the old man heard the sound, his body shook violently!
