The edge of the banquet venue.
Patriarch Su looked at the girl who was surrounded by stars and couldn't help but let out a long sigh: "It's a pity that our family doesn't have a suitable young master, otherwise I would fight for her no matter what."
He couldn't help but glance at his second son beside him, sighed again and shook his head.
He has three sons. The eldest son was weak and mentally retarded since he was born, so he was sent to his hometown to be raised a long time ago.
The second son was originally a pretty good person, but he chose the wrong person and married that stupid woman Lin Ying. Now not only is he divorced, he has also lost the hearts of the elders in the family and has almost been excluded from the possibility of inheriting the family head.
The youngest son Su Jinchuan is suitable.
He was of the right age, had the right looks, and was a senior-senior brother of Xie Xihe, but this son was a troublesome person.
He just suggested once that he get closer to Xie Xihe, and when the time is right, he would go to the Xie family to propose marriage on his behalf. As a result, this brat not only didn't appreciate it, but also asked him if he was crazy?
He was so angry that he picked up a stick and beat the boy up. As a result, the boy ran away from home.
He hasn't come back for several months. We sent people to look for him several times but couldn't catch him. He was as slippery as a loach.
Even if he has the heart, he doesn't have the person!
The more the head of the Su family thought about it, the more he felt like he was having a heart attack. He couldn't help but glare fiercely at Su Jinhe beside him.
Su Jinhe seemed not to notice, staring in a certain direction without blinking, not knowing what he was thinking.
The head of the Su family was instantly furious. He slapped him on the back with his backhand, his eyes wide open, "What are you daydreaming about?!"
Su Jinhe came back to his senses, looked in the same direction again, glanced at Xie Xihe, and suddenly said, "Dad, what do you think of Xie Xihe?"
The head of the Su family was stunned for a moment, and when he realized what he meant, he laughed.
So funny.
"What does it have to do with you? You're a divorced man, and you still want to get her attention?" Patriarch Su said unhappily.
Su Jinhe's expression darkened, but he held back his anger and continued, "What if I say I have a way to take her down?"
Patriarch Su: "You've got to give up."
"You said Lin Ying was good at business and that marrying her might help fill the gaps in our Su family's business and secure our position as one of the four great families. But what happened?"
"There were some results in the first two years, but before the spark could even be lit, she killed herself!"
"Why not just focus on her real estate business? Why did she have to get involved in the pharmaceutical industry and even go against the Xie family!"
"What kind of family is the Xie family? A century-old medical family, and Old Master Xie is the best doctor in Kyoto. How can a newcomer like her shake their status?"
"They still want to recruit Chongli. Is she prettier than others or does she have some special abilities? Why would they choose her over the Xie family?"
Whenever the head of the Su family thought of his second daughter-in-law who felt that her death was not quick enough, he would get filled with anger and would not stop until he had scolded Su Jinhe for a long time.
He continued, "You said Lin Ying could do it, but she played herself to death. You said the Xie family was nothing to be afraid of, but the Xie family just kept getting better and better. You said the Su family could take off, but they were on the verge of falling out of the top four families. Tell me, what have you achieved with all the promises you made over the years?"
"You're still planning on hitting on Xie Xihe?" Patriarch Su chuckled, showing no mercy just because the other person was his son. "Why don't you take a piss and look in the mirror? Are you worthy enough?"
Su Jinhe's cheeks flushed red from being scolded by his own father. He felt so humiliated that he wanted to dig a hole in the ground and crawl into it. But it was precisely because of this that the resentment and anger in his heart burned even more fiercely.
Clench your hands into fists.
The anger that had been suppressed for a long time erupted at this moment. Su Jinhe looked at the old master of the Su family in front of him with bloodshot eyes: "I am not worthy, then who do you think is worthy, Su Jinchuan?"
He sneered: "Whether he is worthy or not is another matter, but do you think he cares about the life and death of the Su family? When the Su family falls out of the position of the four major families in the future, will he help them?!"
"He won't!"
"Ever since he entered Dawnlight despite your and Mom's objections, he has been leaving the Su family. He doesn't want to be the young master of the Su family at all!"
The Su family head's expression darkened. Noticing the inquiring glances from those around him, his expression darkened even further. He pulled the man to a more marginal corner and whispered, "Are you crazy? What kind of occasion is this? The entire Hidden Alliance is here. What are you doing?!"
Su Jinhe gradually calmed down and said in a steady voice, "Dad, are you really unaware of the Su family's current predicament?"
"You have three sons. The eldest brother doesn't need to be considered, and the third brother has no intention of becoming the head of the family. Now even I have been squeezed out of the range of heirs. So who will take the throne when you abdicate in the future?"
"No matter who comes to power, it won't be our turn. When that happens, it will be the end of us. Those tigers, leopards, jackals and wolves in the family will never give us another chance to turn things around!"
"This is just a small matter. From a larger perspective, the Su family's position as one of the four major families in Kyoto is already shaky!"
"If we don't find a solution, it's really over!"
The head of the Su family knew the situation very well. He glanced at him with a rather grim expression and said in a cold voice, "So, your solution is to use Xie Xihe?"
"You also know that the Su family's status is already shaky, and you still dare to provoke Xie Xihe!"
"Have you forgotten what happened to Lin Ying? Is she someone you can afford to offend?!"
The head of the Su family was truly disappointed with his son, but for the sake of the Su family, he had to suppress his temper and said gently, "Jinhe, listen to my advice. If you are truly unwilling to give up and want to make a comeback through marriage, there are many suitable girls in Kyoto."
"I think the eldest daughter of the Song family is quite good. She is very capable and is loved by the old patriarch. I heard that most of the power of the Song family is now under her control. If you can pursue her, you still have a chance."
"But Xie Xihe, really can't." He glanced around, his eyes landing in the direction of the Sheng family, and said, "Not only is she not suitable, I vaguely heard some news from the elders of the Sheng family that she and Sheng Shijing are very likely already married."
He said earnestly: "The support of the Huo family is indeed touching, but the Sheng family is not someone we can afford to offend."
Su Jinhe didn't believe it: "How is it possible? Xie Xihe is only nineteen years old. Even if she is really with Sheng Shijing, they are at most boyfriend and girlfriend or engaged. How can they get married?"
The head of the Su family was so angry that his nose was about to spit out gasps. He was completely furious: "It's impossible that this has nothing to do with you! Su Jinhe! I'm warning you one last time! Don't mess with Xie Xihe!"
"Otherwise, if anything goes wrong, don't blame me, your father, for being cruel! I'll just pretend that I never gave birth to a son like you!"
The head of the Su family was extremely angry. He turned around and left, leaving Su Jinhe standing there alone, his expression constantly changing.
At a certain moment, a sinister look flashed in his eyes, and he turned and walked in a certain direction.
It was exactly the direction he had been looking at.
