Chapter 510: Chapter 510: Empathy. Chapter 510: Chapter 510: Empathy. “Deserved it!” An Cheng muttered, but his tone wasn’t as harsh.
Wei Shufen breathed a sigh of relief. That was good; it seed this approach still worked on An Cheng.
“Who can say otherwise! Xiaomin brought it upon herself. You know, although she has harbored deep feelings for Ayuan over the years, Ayuan is now married. At the very least, she should’ve offered sincere wishes. But just because soone said sothing unpleasant to her face, she flew into a rage. That girl was like a lunatic, wielding a knife, trying to fight Bai Xiao to the death.
Ah! Ayuan is also fiercely protective of his wife. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have gotten stabbed for nothing. Now look at the ss. Bai Xiao is unscathed, while Xiaomin had major surgery. When I left, she was still not awake from the anesthesia.”
The way she phrased it shifted the focus onto Bai Xiao, moving the point of contention to him. This would make An Cheng less irritated.
An Cheng frowned, “No matter what, you can’t just pull a knife on soone. Isn’t it right for Ayuan to protect his wife? If he didn’t stand up for his wife, I would have scolded him for being incompetent.” He wasn’t foolish; it was just that Wei Shufen had always managed things well both at ho and outside, which moved him. He knew full well the difficulties of being a stepmother, so he had made so concessions on many issues.
But that didn’t an he wasn’t aware of what Wei Shufen was trying to do.
“Yes! Xiaomin has already learned a huge lesson. She’s so weak after such a major surgery and even wanted to apologize to Ayuan and Bai Xiao. If I hadn’t stopped her, she would have tried to crawl here. I’ve told her that Ayuan won’t hold it against her; we’re all family. After this incident, she will definitely rein in her temper,” Wei Shufen said, seeing that An Cheng did not respond with the placating words she had hoped for, and had to smooth things over herself.
An Cheng shook his head, “What you and I say doesn’t matter. What does Ayuan think? It’s his business.” He clearly did not want to intervene.
For the first ti, Wei Shufen was anxious. “Old An, I know Xiaomin was wrong this ti, but no matter her many faults, she’s my niece. Ayuan, if you really send her to the police, it would ruin her life as a girl. Besides, I have had no children of my own in this life. I have always treated Xiaomin as my own. Old An, please just talk to Ayuan for once, spare Xiaomin this ti. I guarantee she will turn over a new leaf and will never trouble Ayuan and his family again.”
Nothing could be more effective than An Cheng’s intervention. Wei Shufen certainly knew her own influence; if she dared to speak, it would probably make An Zhiyuan even more resolute in his actions.
An Cheng shook his head, “Stop it. Xiaomin, the child, I also watched her grow up. Do you think I don’t feel for her? But no matter how much I care, doing wrong ans facing punishnt. And with her temperant, maybe getting educated in there is for the better, preventing future trouble. I’ve always said that you can’t spoil this child. Her temper has always been rather haughty.
You always told it was nothing serious. Now that there’s been an incident, she should accept the punishnt. Anyway, don’t co to about this. Ayuan is my son too. Put yourself in my shoes and think about this; if your own child was involved, would you let it go? I’m afraid in your heart, you still haven’t truly considered Ayuan as your own son.”
An Cheng got up and walked upstairs, his hands behind his back.
Wei Shufen wanted to say sothing but closed her mouth, feeling powerless.
Right now, An Cheng probably didn’t want to hear anything she had to say.
