Chapter 63 Shan Yurou was born to Shan Mingyuan and another woman!
As soon as he finished speaking, Shanxi stood up abruptly, exuding a cold aura: "It's none of your business to point fingers and criticize what kind of people my friends are."
"Instead of wasting your time on this, you should worry about your own mess first," Shanxi said coldly, her eyes devoid of any warmth.
As she spoke, Shanxi looked directly at Xiaohuanghua and ordered, "Take her away. I have no interest in catching up with her."
Old Master Shan's body trembled.
Although he was old, he wasn't stupid, so he naturally knew that his great-grandmother was unhappy.
It's all his fault. He didn't expect Shan Rou to come back at this time. If he had known, he would have made arrangements in advance.
"Rou'er, let's go!" Old Master Shan lowered his voice and forcefully pulled on Shan Rou's sleeve.
However, Shanrou was full of resentment. She suddenly pushed away Old Master Shan's hand, glared at Shanxi with wide eyes, and shouted angrily, "What kind of attitude is this?"
"No wonder your father and sister had so many complaints about you. Now it seems they were absolutely right!"
"And you, Father! I told you to properly educate Shanxi, and this is how you spoil her?"
"Supporting a good-for-nothing like her as the head of the family is utterly absurd!"
Shan Rou was furious at this moment, and even lost her temper with Old Master Shan for the first time.
Old Master Shan never expected that his beloved daughter would be so aggressive, completely disregarding family ties and the family's reputation.
"Rou'er, you...you must stop fooling around!" Old Master Shan finally managed to utter these words, his voice even carrying a hint of pleading.
"I'm being ridiculous? I think you're the ones being ridiculous!" Shan Rou looked at Old Master Shan with a questioning expression, her eyes filled with disdain and anger. "She's a useless person who can't cultivate, how could you hand over the position of family head to her?"
She could understand passing it on to Yu Rou, after all, Yu Rou was the emperor's beloved daughter, and had been exceptionally talented since childhood. But how could her father pass it on to a useless person who couldn't cultivate?
"She is your daughter, your own daughter. If I don't give her to her, should I give her to an outsider?" Old Master Shan retorted sternly, his voice carrying an unquestionable authority.
He thought that Shanrou was probably crazy and had lost her mind!
After learning about the mess Shan Mingyuan had made, instead of blaming Shan Mingyuan or scolding Shan Yurou, he came to Shan Xi to vent his anger.
Does she know that Shanxi has already...?
Shan Rou knew that the outsider Shan the old master was referring to was Shan Yu Rou, but she still couldn't help but explain for Shan Yu Rou: "Father, Yu Rou is outstanding!"
"She brings honor to our Shan family!"
"Haven't you always wanted to carry forward the family's legacy and bring glory to your ancestors? Do you really expect a good-for-nothing to do that?"
When Old Master Shan heard Shan Rou calling him "useless" over and over again, and then looked at Shan Mingyuan and Shan Yurou standing outside the courtyard, not daring to come in at all, what else did he not understand?
What a talent Shan Mingyuan has! His ability to distort the truth and turn black into white is truly remarkable!
He managed to turn black into white, completely fooling Shan Rou and making him underestimate him!
He thought that Rou'er would be angry with Shan Mingyuan after she learned the truth, but he was not paying attention and did not know what kind of spell Shan Mingyuan had cast on Rou'er, which made Rou'er blame Shanxi!
"Shanrou, you are too short-sighted." Old Master Shan looked at Shanrou's face with deep eyes, but in the end he couldn't bring himself to scold her harshly.
He sighed deeply, looked at Shanxi with admiration in his eyes, "Although Shanxi cannot cultivate, she is intelligent, resourceful, and courageous."
“Since she took over as head of the family, the Shan family has made progress in many aspects.”
"You only see that she cannot cultivate, but you don't see the efforts she has made for the good family."
Upon hearing this, Shanrou's disdain intensified, and she sneered, "Effort? What effort can she possibly put in? She's just secretly using petty tricks and schemes."
"Father, if you insist on letting her become the head of the family, sooner or later you will lead the Shan family to ruin, and you will be abandoned by everyone!"
Just then, Shanxi, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke, her voice cold: "You keep saying I'm a good-for-nothing, that I can't bring honor to the Shan family. Then I'd like to ask you, what have you done for the Shan family all these years? Besides enjoying the wealth and luxury brought to you by the Shan family's daughter, what else have you done for the Shan family?"
Shanrou was speechless for a moment when Shanxi asked her a question, and her face turned bright red.
She opened her mouth, but couldn't utter a single word.
"I don't want to hold this against you, but if you dare to be so insolent again, don't blame me for disregarding family ties and expelling you from the Shan family." Shanxi's voice was as cold as ice, carrying the unquestionable authority and imposing presence of the head of the family.
Shan Rou's pupils widened in shock, as if she couldn't believe her ears.
She never expected that Shanxi would be so tough, daring to threaten her in public and even wanting to expel her from the Shanxi family.
"You unfilial daughter..." Shan Rou was about to burst into a tirade of curses when she was instantly interrupted by Old Master Shan's angry shout: "Enough! Shan Rou, if you continue to be so unreasonable and make trouble, don't even think about stepping into the Shan family again!"
Upon hearing this, Shan Rou's eyes widened in disbelief as she stared intently at Old Master Shan before her.
If she didn't know her own father well enough, she would have suspected that the old man in front of her was an imposter!
However, when did her father ever say a harsh word to her?
But now, her father is actually yelling at her for the sake of such a good-for-nothing as Shanxi?
Seeing that Old Master Shan was truly angry, Shan Yurou was unwilling, but she knew that it was not appropriate to confront Shanxi and Old Master Shan directly at this time. So she quickly stepped forward and acted as a peacemaker: "Grandpa, don't be angry. Mother didn't mean to make you angry."
“Mother, Grandpa is getting old and his body can’t take this kind of abuse. He can’t keep getting angry, otherwise it will be bad for his health.” Shan Yurou said softly, while gently shaking her head at Shan Rou, signaling her not to continue to anger the old man.
Seeing how considerate and sensible Shan Yurou was, and how much she cared about Old Master Shan's health, Shan Rou looked at Shanxi beside her and felt that Shanxi was simply a heartless and ungrateful wretch.
It's a shame that Shanxi is the old master's own granddaughter, yet she doesn't care about the old master's health at all!
With her looks, how dare she expect the old man to protect her in every way?
For her sake, the old master spared no effort in using all kinds of connections and networks, just so that she could firmly sit in the position of head of the family!
But what about Shan Xi? He's utterly ungrateful and heartless!
Seeing that Shan Rou didn't reject Shan Yu Rou, but instead seemed to enjoy her closeness, Old Master Shan frowned in confusion and couldn't help but remind her, "Rou'er, do you know that Yu Rou is the daughter of Shan Mingyuan and another woman?"
