"I heard the first grandson even bears the Su surna. Mr. Jiu must have quite the influence."
The one who said this was Mr. Wang, the elder who had previously had so unpleasant conflicts with Lu Qing.
Old Sir Lu was present as well, but in his eyes, this seed to have turned into Mr. Su’s stage. He had already been suppressing so anger deep inside.
With soone provoking him like this, the anger instantly flared up––his Lu Family’s eldest grandson had beco one of the Su Family’s.
If word got out, it wouldn’t sound good, no matter how you put it.
Mr. Jiu cast a casual glance at Mr. Wang:
"It seems like you don’t plan on ever stepping into my Su Family’s doors again."
Mr. Wang’s face darkened as he heard this.
"Mr. Jiu, what’s that supposed to an?"
"Exactly what it sounds like. Matters of the Su Family have no place for your opinions."
Mr. Wang shot out of his seat in anger: "I call you Mr. Jiu out of respect, not out of fear of you. Did I say anything wrong? You stole soone else’s eldest grandson to make him your heir. You, Mr. Su, have no son or grandson, so you want to snatch other people’s grandsons—and now you can’t even tolerate anyone comnting on it?"
Mr. Jiu looked at him, chuckled, and said:
"Indeed, the older you’ve gotten, the clearer your mind. If the Wang Family doesn’t want the entire clan to be implicated, you’d better drag this man away imdiately. From now on, wherever I am, I don’t want to see anyone from the Wang Family."
"Mr. Su! Don’t push people too far! Old Sir Lu is here as well. Old Sir Lu, let ask you just one thing: Your Lu Family has always been a distinguished na—are you really going to hand over your grandson just like that?"
At this mont, Lu Qing stepped forward, his face dark as thunder.
"The matters between the Su and Lu Families have nothing to do with your Wang Family! Mr. Wang, out of respect for you being an elder, I won’t stoop to your level. But I advise you to leave imdiately, or this may escalate to more than just a loss of face."
Wang Ye saw the situation worsening and quickly stepped forward to diate:
"My father’s had too much to drink. I’ll help him leave first. Apologies for the trouble."
At that mont, Mr. Wang’s stubborn streak flared up. He pushed Wang Ye away, snorted coldly, and said:
"Everyone fears your Su and Lu Families—I, however, do not! What nonsense is this? If you have the guts, take this old man’s life! Lu Qing, aren’t you just selling your son for glory? And now you don’t even allow others to talk about it? Enough—I don’t want to stay another minute in this lousy place! Mr. Jiu, if you have guts, finish off; I, Wang Chuan, am waiting!"
After shouting this, Mr. Wang truly stord off, slamming the door behind him, leaving the other guests exchanging uneasy looks.
Does this an the Wang Family and the Su Family have officially fallen out?
However, the Wang Family had been under heavy pressure recently. To be fair, the family is now falling apart—Wang Ye aligns himself with Lu Qing, while Mr. Wang and so others have made it clear they intend to go head-to-head against Lu Qing.
Everyone had thought today would be an opportunity for reconciliation, but instead, it escalated into such a ss.
After apologizing to Lu Qing, Wang Ye quickly chased after his father. Heaven knew who had instigated the old man, making him act so irrationally.
Truly, it felt as though his brain had been kicked by a mule!
The banquet continued, but Old Sir Lu left early, clearly having heard Mr. Wang’s remarks loud and clear.
Though everything had been agreed upon before, he couldn’t help but feel uneasy deep down.
Three kids—all from the Lu Family—why should one be given to Mr. Su?
And be given the Su surna?
This was why he also harbored so resentnt toward Qin Miaomiao.
Originally, Lu Qing had been entirely obedient to him, but now, he wouldn’t even listen to a single word.
Wasn’t this all Qin Miaomiao’s sche?
