Chapter 66 Sealed Past
Chapter 66 Sealed Past
Su Yuchen looked at the keys and bank card in Yun Yao's hand and turned his face away.
“That’s Jiang Ting’s villa, worth fifty million, and that bank card has five hundred million in it.” Su Yuchen’s voice fell in the small space, neither too loud nor too soft.
Yun Yao looked at Su Yuchen without saying a word.
After a long while, she let out a sneer.
Su Yuchen was puzzled by her meaning and was about to ask when Yun Yao's voice rang out.
"Su Yuchen, are you trying to fob me off like a beggar?"
A look of disgust flashed across Su Yuchen's eyes. He had never seen such a greedy person in his entire life.
"Name your price." He couldn't wait to get rid of Yun Yao.
Although Yun Yao once said that she would sever all ties with Su Yuchen once the magic was withdrawn, Su Yuchen was no ordinary person. How could he believe Yun Yao's one-sided story? He wanted to eliminate any future troubles!
Yun Yao's eyes rippled with emotion. With a flick of her finger, the bank card in her hand plunged straight into Su Yuchen's leather chair, the card trembling as a testament to the force of the impact.
"I'll give you 50 billion, three gold mines, five silver mines, two mines, and ten islands. What do you say if you submit to me?" Yun Yao's eyes were filled with ruthlessness.
Su Yuchen didn't believe Yun Yao's words, feeling that she was exaggerating on purpose, and even felt a sense of humiliation at being played.
"Yun Yao, let me tell you, the consequences are not something you and the Yun family can afford." Su Yuchen's voice carried a hint of threat.
Yun Yao didn't want to say anything more to Su Yuchen, so she opened the car door and got out, looking down at him.
"Get out before I let you reincarnate prematurely!" Yun Yao slammed the car door shut.
Even though Su Yuchen had anticipated this situation, he still felt inexplicably angry when he truly felt Yun Yao's insatiable greed.
Watching Yun Yao's departing figure, Su Yuchen took out his phone.
"We can begin our plan now." At this moment, Su Yuchen's face was as sinister and terrifying as the Grim Reaper.
Yun Yao stormed off, growing angrier the more she thought about it, and punched a street lamp on the side of the road.
After Yun Yao left, the streetlight dented inward, creating a hole the size of a fist...
Su Yuchen returned to the company, thinking he had finally found a quiet place, but when he saw the person sitting in his office, he frowned slightly.
"Dad, what brings you here?" Su Yuchen asked as he took off his coat.
When Su Weiwen saw Su Yuchen return, he hurriedly got up, his face showing a troubled expression.
"Xiao Yu, where did you go?"
Su Yuchen paused for a moment, but didn't react much, quickly returning to normal.
"There's a client I need to meet with."
Although Su Weiwen found it strange that there was someone in the capital city whom Su Yuchen would personally meet, he didn't think too much about it.
He came here with a mission today.
"Xiao Yu, Dad is here today to discuss something with you," Su Weiwen said, getting straight to the point.
Su Yuchen was used to it; whenever the old man came to visit, it was either to urge him to get married or to ask for something.
"Dad, what's the matter? Just tell me." Su Yuchen was quite straightforward.
Seeing Su Yuchen's somewhat troubled expression, Su Weiwen pondered for a moment before finally speaking up.
"Xiao Yu, your grandma's 80th birthday is coming up soon. She asked me to ask you if you could bring that girl home for dinner?" Su Weiwen said, carefully observing Su Yuchen's expression.
Upon hearing Su Weiwen's words, Su Yuchen froze in place, his eyes momentarily blank before sharpening.
"What, are you going to take her back to be pointed at and gossiped about?" Su Yuchen's tone was slightly somber.
"Xiaoyu, you're overthinking it. Your grandma is just concerned about you." Su Weiwen's explanation sounded rather weak.
Su Yuchen let out a cold snort, his gaze towards Su Weiwen carrying a hint of hostility.
"Concerned? Ha, concerned about what? Concerned about her family background? Concerned about whether she's a socialite? Concerned about whether she's worthy of the Su family?" Su Yuchen's angry voice rang out.
Su Weiwen sighed, somewhat unwilling, and continued to persuade him: "Xiaoyu, you are still her grandson. Even if she made mistakes back then, she is still your grandmother!"
This is the sentence that Su Yuchen has heard the most since he was a child.
He sat in the chair, his eyes filled with detachment.
"Chen Dong, see the guest out."
Chen Dong, who was waiting at the door, had already anticipated this situation. He hurriedly pushed open the door and nodded slightly to Su Weiwen.
"Sir, the master might not be in a good mood today. Let me take you home," Chen Dong said hurriedly.
Chen Dong secretly glanced at Su Yuchen and saw that his face was full of turbulent emotions, as if he would uncontrollably attack everyone present at any moment.
No one wants to be disobeyed by their son, and Su Weiwen's expression was also very displeased, his tone commanding.
"Su Yuchen, let me tell you, if you don't bring that woman back to your grandmother's birthday banquet in a week, I will sever our father-son relationship!" Su Weiwen said sternly.
After saying that, Su Weiwen stormed off, and Chen Dong followed behind, closing the door behind him.
When Su Yuchen was left alone in the office, he was surrounded by two emotions: anger and loneliness.
Su Yuchen recalled Su Weiwen's words about severing ties, and memories that had been sealed away for nearly twenty years surged back into his mind.
……
When he was five years old, he learned that his mother, Xiao Yun, was not his father's first wife.
When Su Yuchen and his mother were brought back to the Su family's old house, they were met with disdain from everyone. They all called Xiao Yun a mistress, and there was constant ridicule and even physical abuse.
Xiao Yun was an extremely virtuous and gentle woman. No matter how wronged she was, she would always tell Su Yuchen with a smile that they were not bad people who destroyed other people's families, and that Su Yuchen was not the bastard they were talking about.
Su Yuchen knew that Su Weiwen met Xiao Yun after his first wife passed away, but at the time he was called a "bastard," so any explanation he gave seemed rather weak.
Xiao Yun's smile was as gentle as a spring breeze. She always held Su Yuchen's hand and told him that no matter how much malice the world held towards us, we would eventually find our salvation.
She said that Su Weiwen was her salvation, and things would get better.
However, what awaited them and their child was an abyss of hell.
An elderly woman with a few silver strands at her temples suddenly barged into their world. She smiled and hugged Su Yuchen, making him watch as Xiao Yun was bullied by the servants.
She told Su Yuchen that Xiao Yun's status was lowly and she was not worthy of Su Weiwen. If she wanted to enter the Su family, she had to abide by the Su family's rules. They were teaching Xiao Yun manners and etiquette.
Su Yuchen only remembered that he cried until he lost his voice that day, his fingers digging into his palm, leaving a bloody mess.
He crawled to Xiao Yun's side, covered in wounds, and looked at her helplessly.
He said, "Mother, we don't want this wealth and glory anymore, nor do we want the halo and honor of being a member of the Su family. Let's go home, let's go back to our home."
He thought this was the end, but little did he know that it was just the beginning.
The old woman not only forced Xiao Yun to do things she didn't want to do, but even set her sights on Su Yuchen. She said that there were no useless members of the Su family, and if he wanted to save Xiao Yun from this predicament, he had to listen to her.
Su Yuchen didn't want to see his mother suffer such a calamity again, so he agreed to be her puppet grandson.
However, the good times did not last long.
Su Weiwen's return made the old woman even more ruthless. She couldn't stand Su Weiwen treating Xiao Yun even the slightest bit well. If Su Weiwen said a good word for Xiao Yun, she would choose a day to beat Xiao Yun until she was covered in bruises.
I don't know how long this period of time lasted...
