Chapter 1108: Live Up to Tathagata and Live Up to You
"Clown? Zhao Yixuan, that's not what you said before. You're also a complete hypocrite! I'm a clown, and you and your sister are no better. One is a scumbag, and the other is a pimp. I feel so sad and pitiful for Sister Qu Si. She's so beautiful, but she actually fell in love with a scumbag like you and even sacrificed her entire life for it! Zhao Yixuan, you scumbag!"
"Someone, drag her out. From today on, you are not allowed to set foot in the Zhao family again! Even better, take away her surname. She doesn't deserve the surname Zhao!" The old lady was completely furious.
Having said that, Zhao Zhikun and his wife are still here, and they are still a family. No one is sure whether the old lady is serious when she says this, or if it is just an impulsive remark.
The nanny and bodyguards did not really come to drive Zhao Jiaying away immediately.
Zhao Jiaying probably saw this and couldn't help but smile. That look was telling everyone that no one could do anything to her! She also intentionally or unintentionally glanced at Su Xiao with a smug and provocative look.
Su Xiao subconsciously clenched her hands. At this moment, Yun Che suddenly stepped forward and spoke to the old lady, "Grandma, I'm so sorry for what happened at the New Year's Eve dinner. When Hui'er told me that Zhao Jiaying was also attending the party, I actually didn't want to come. I know exactly what kind of person Zhao Jiaying is. She's rotten to the core, and there's no way she can be saved. Even if she spends another twenty years in prison, she won't be able to change. But Hui'er loves you, my grandmother, and doesn't want you to be sad, so I insisted on coming despite knowing what I might face. But I can't just stand by and watch Hui'er get bullied, or I'll be unworthy of being her husband!"
The old lady naturally saw through Yun Che's intentions, and her heart was in turmoil. Then, she said, "Hui'er, my good girl, it was my fault!"
"Grandma!" Su Xiao also rushed to her grandmother and supported her.
The old lady looked at the tears she was trying to hold back and continued, "I really should give up. I have so many grandchildren. Since she's rotten to the core, why should I force her? Yingying, I solemnly declare once again that from today on, you don't have to come to see me again, and don't try to coax or beg me. I gave you a chance, but you didn't cherish it. This is how it has always been in this world. People who do bad things always have to pay the price. This is your price. Get out, get out now!"
This time, the old lady was obviously serious.
The bodyguards finally came out.
"Mom!" Zhao Jiaying's mother Lv Minghui rushed over quickly.
The old lady ignored her and looked directly at her eldest son. She said, "Zhikun, in my mind, you and Zhixun are equal, but you also see that it's not that I didn't give him a chance, but that it's simply not worth giving. You should persuade your wife. At this point, I don't want to say whose fault it is. I just hope that she can be a good mother in the future and know what to do and what not to do. If a child becomes bad, it is the mother's inevitable responsibility!"
Lu Minghui's face changed drastically and he staggered immediately.
Zhao Zhikun was so embarrassed that he felt as if he had lost all his face in this day.
These people are his closest relatives, and they share more or less the same blood as him, but he feels that he is not worthy of being their relatives, just like his mother said, not worthy!
In the end, it was Zhao Zhikun who ordered the attendants and bodyguards to take Zhao Jiaying away, and he and Lu Minghui also left first.
Yun Che continued to apologize to the old lady, but anyone with a discerning eye could see that Yun Che didn't really feel that he had done anything wrong. His real purpose in saying that was to force Zhao Jiaying to leave! Regardless of whether the old lady really wanted Zhao Jiaying to leave or was just putting on a show, the result would be what Yun Che wanted.
Yes, he had never been a soft-hearted and compassionate person. His love for Su Xiao was fully demonstrated today. As for Zhao Jiaying and that Liang Liang, regardless of whether Liang Liang was related to Yun Che or not, Yun Che did not want to acknowledge this child anymore.
After all this turmoil at the joyful New Year's Eve dinner, everyone felt a little cautious. Yun Che, however, broke away from his usual aloofness and raised his glass to toast everyone one by one. Zhao Zhixun, who had been silent the whole time, also came out to greet everyone, and the atmosphere gradually returned to a warm state.
After the meal, everyone dispersed and returned to their own homes to continue celebrating, while Su Xiao stayed to keep her grandmother company.
"Hui'er, I'm sorry. Because of my selfishness, I made you face such an embarrassing situation. I'm really sad!"
"Grandma, don't be like this. No one wants this to happen. I feel guilty when you say this. I think if it weren't for me, you wouldn't have to face this. You are so old, and you still have to encounter such a thing." Su Xiao held her grandmother's arm, also very sad.
The old lady shook her head and patted her hand. "Yingying said I was partial. Yes, Grandma admits that I am partial. Grandma just loves you more, but it's because you deserve it. Just like how Ah Che handled this matter today, it's because he loves you enough."
"Grandma, I'm sorry. I asked him to apologize to you. He was so impulsive because he saw that I was sad and felt sorry for me..." Speaking of this, Su Xiao hurriedly apologized.
The old grandmother suddenly smiled. "Silly boy, I don't blame him. On the contrary, I feel relieved and happy for you. It's really rare for a man to do this for you! There's a saying that goes, 'Don't let down the Tathagata, don't let down your lover.' I'd rather offend the whole world than protect the one I love. Ah Che has done it. By expressing his stance in front of us today, he's forced Yingying into a corner."
"grandmother!"
"Grandma doesn't blame him at all. I'm even glad that he stood up to protect you. With him like this, you won't have to worry about anything in the future. Hui'er, you have to be well and happy, okay? Tonight is New Year's Eve. Grandma wishes you a happy family, happiness and health. My Hui'er, thank you for being my granddaughter."
Su Xiao didn't say anything for a while and held her grandmother tightly. Somehow, she suddenly felt that her grandmother was getting old quickly and it seemed that her grandmother would leave her at any time.
Her heart suddenly ached, and she held her grandmother's thin arms even tighter.
"Hui'er, don't be nervous. Even if something happens to me, I have no regrets. I've earned a lot by living to this age, so don't be sad. I will always watch over you. You have to be happy and joyful, and then I will be relieved. Don't let me worry, okay?"
"No, grandma, please don't say that. You're still upset about this accident tonight. I'm sorry. I'll let Yun Che apologize to you. Or even if you want to forgive Zhao Jiaying, Yun Che and I won't object, grandma..."
"Silly girl, what nonsense are you talking about? Grandma didn't mean that. Didn't I tell you that Yun Che is doing this, it's very good. Grandma is very pleased that he can protect you like this."
"But you..."
"My silly grandson, let's not talk about it anymore. Let's not talk about this anymore. Let it pass. Let's talk about something good, something happy..."
Su Xiao stayed with the old lady until the middle of the night. They went to the ancestral hall to worship their ancestors and pray for blessings. At three o'clock in the morning, the old lady finally fell asleep.
Su Xiao quietly gazed at her grandmother's peaceful face, her heart restless. The feeling that her grandmother would leave her at any time kept lingering in her mind.
Because of this, she couldn't let go of what happened today, and even felt that Yun Che shouldn't be so decisive, even if it was to protect her and help her.
