Chapter Ninety-Five: Xiao Hong's Punishment (2/2)

Yu Changnian trembled, quickly stood up, and said with his head bowed, "Father, I... I was indeed negligent. These past years, I've devoted myself to my work and paid too little attention to family matters. I never imagined Xiao Hong would do something so heinous. I'm sorry to you, and I'm sorry to Zhenzhen and Jin'er. I'm even more sorry to Xiaoqi and Xiaohao."

Grandpa Yu snorted coldly, "Hmph, can a single oversight make up for all the suffering Jin'er has endured over the years? Can it make up for the pain Xiaoqi and Xiaohao lost their parents when they were young? As the head of the family, you can't even discipline your own wife, letting her do such a disgraceful thing to the family. You should really reflect on this!"

Hearing her grandfather so harshly reprimand her father, Yu Wan couldn't help but step forward and say, "Grandpa, you can't blame my mother entirely for what happened to my second uncle and aunt. She didn't do it on purpose. My mother has already been punished over the years, so please don't blame Dad anymore. Besides, Lin Jin is back now, and she still has her mother to love her. You value her so much too. She has everything. But what about me? My mother is in prison, and I don't know what I'll do in the future..." As she spoke, she began to sob again.

Grandpa Yu glanced at Yu Wan, his eyes filled with both disappointment and pity. "Wan, your mother made a mistake and has to bear the consequences. You need to understand that she has only herself to blame. As for you, you need to correct your temper in the future and stop targeting Jin. We are all family and should support each other."

Although Yu Wan was unwilling, she could only nod silently under her grandfather's authority. At this moment, Yu Qi finally spoke up, "Grandpa, Wanwan is still young and may not be able to accept this fact for a while, so please don't blame her too much. However, Wanwan, you really need to change your temperament and stop making trouble. Our family has finally returned to peace."

Yu Wan glared at Yu Qi and muttered under her breath, "Of course you'd say that, it didn't happen to you!"

Grandpa Yu coughed heavily, interrupting Yu Wan, "Alright, that's enough. From today onwards, everyone must treat Jin'er well and not let her suffer any more grievances. Anyone who dares to interfere again, don't blame me for being impolite!" Everyone nodded in agreement.

Just then, Yu Zhenzhen came downstairs. Seeing the heavy atmosphere in the living room, she roughly understood what was going on. She walked to Grandpa Yu's side and said softly, "Father, please don't be angry. It's not worth ruining your health. Xiaojin is a sensible child and won't hold it against Wanwan."

Grandpa Yu nodded slightly, his expression softening. "Zhenzhen, Jin is a good girl. She's suffered so much these past years. You must make it up to her and let her feel the warmth of home."

Yu Zhenzhen's eyes were slightly red, but she said firmly, "Father, don't worry, I will definitely do it."

Grandpa Yu looked at everyone again and said slowly, "Today is the day Jin'er comes home, which should be a happy occasion, but it has turned into this. I hope that our Yu family can live in harmony from now on and that there will be no more trouble." After saying that, he stood up and, with the help of everyone, slowly walked towards the room.

Yu Wan watched her grandfather's departing figure, her resentment undiminished. She secretly vowed to find a way to make Lin Jin unable to stay in the Yu family and to reclaim everything that was rightfully hers…
