Chapter 266: Shui Family

"Father‑in‑law, they are asking that the child's IQ not follow Yan Ranran."

Yan Ranran's actions, in their eyes, are truly very stupid. They fear the child's IQ will follow the mother, and later they won't be able to make the Shui Family flourish!

No matter how many times Ji Tianlin hears the words "Father‑in‑law," the corner of his mouth twitches involuntarily.

His family seems to have stabbed some childhood‑misfortune nest. He and his wife are fine. His parents, though biased, were normal at first. Until he achieved success, his older brother and second brother became jealous, the parents were incited, the father began to despise him, and the mother still performed superficial duties. His wife's worst part is that during her childhood she barely saw her parents, being raised by Qin Zhenzhong and his wife.

If it weren't for this relationship, Ji Tianlin would want to harshly deal with Qin Yuanjun to avenge his daughter.

They finally managed to have a daughter, but the daughter was taken away, and she lived a miserable life from childhood, which made him feel deeply guilty. And the son‑in‑law that the daughter married is even worse!

Stepfather and stepmother both show up, targeting an environment where having parents is equivalent to having none. Normally calling "Dad" feels awkward; that experience makes Ji Tianlin feel a bit pained, and he decides to trouble that son‑in‑law less.

When it comes to his pitiful granddaughter, she goes straight into hell mode; she is terribly unlucky, robbed, and encounters two wolves! One treats the child as a bragging tool, caring only about the outside and ignoring the inside; the other vents on the child, causing severe psychological trauma.

"It would be best if she were like Yan Ranran!"

Ji Tianlin despises the Shui Family and hopes the Shui Family will become extinct!

After they finish all matters, it is already night. Ji Tianlin returns to the Xu family, and Su Yi and Su Xi return to the Su family.

Su Yu, who has been crouching at the villa entrance waiting, is somewhat eager, "Uncle, Dad, you're back? The butler uncle left a night snack for you!"

【Finally back, Wulongcha, thanks for your hard work!】

During the banquet, there wasn't much going on around Su Yu, so she let Wulongcha assist Su Xi, whose workload was larger, always ready to Draw card and give cards. She didn't expect that after the banquet, when she returned home, they hadn't gone home.

She finished dinner, and they still hadn't gone home!

After she finished showering, drowsy at the doorway, about to collapse on the spot, they finally returned!

"Hmm, go to sleep quickly!"

"Good night, big uncle! Good night, Dad!"

【No, I'm too sleepy, Wulongcha, you also rest well.】

Su Yu staggered step by step, and in the end she was carried back to the room by Ji Yan.

Su Xi and Su Yi finished the night snack and began analyzing what happened today.

……

The next morning, after waking up well fed and hydrated, Su Yu crossed her legs, a big cherry in her mouth, listening to Wulongcha recount yesterday's events.

Zhu Xueheng and Liang Lijiang's wedding appeared smooth on the surface, but behind the scenes two factions were scheming. The first faction was sent by Yan Ranran. She truly hates Zhu Xueheng. If he hadn't blocked her at the time and produced those videos, she wouldn't have fallen to the point of not even having a wedding. She completely lost face in front of everyone. When mentioned, people's first reaction is that she's a scheming woman who cheats and wants to bring a child to give others a green hat.

The second faction is Ji Xiaoling, driven by the Shui Family. Ji Xiaoling despises the Su Clan, and she must, according to the Shui Family's orders, target Zhu Xueheng, so the two work together. She bribed the hotel staff, and with the Shui Family's influence, she almost turned the entire wedding into a sieve!

【Is that so?】

Su Yu really can't understand their mindset. Shouldn't they keep such matters tightly sealed, rarely come out to cause trouble, and let others gradually forget them?!

【How does my big uncle plan to deal with them?】

If the handling goes poorly, Su Yu wants to Draw card to deal with people!

The Shui Family is so disgusting!

【I suggest your big uncle hold fire, wait for the right moment before striking.】

Su Yu doesn't understand, "Why? Not retaliating makes it seem like we're afraid of them, they don't know how many small moves they'll make!"

This circle won't let you off the hook just because you choose to back down. Su Yu has seen some business data: when a family shows signs of fatigue, whether ally, partner, or enemy, the first reaction is to devour.

Su Yu doesn't want to retreat; once you step back, you may keep retreating.

【Yan Ranran's child is about to be lost; your family shouldn't become a scapegoat.】

【Huh?】

Su Yu didn't expect, "How could her child not be saved? The Shui Family is also quite wealthy, right?"

The Shui Family married a daughter to the Jiang Family not because the daughter and son‑in‑law were true love. The main point is that the Jiang Family regularly sends money to the Shui Family. Therefore, the Shui family's father and son appear outwardly respectable, seeming never corrupt, even crying poverty to the higher‑ups. In reality, their mansion staff enjoy all kinds of luxuries, living as beautifully as possible.

In such an environment, would Yan Ranran's child still be unsavable?

【Indeed unsavable. Yan Ranran quarreled with her mother‑in‑law. After the argument, she returned to her natal home. The natal home, seeing her pregnancy, dared not do anything to her, only gave cold treatment.】

【But a boy from the Yan family visited the house as a guest, gave Yan Ranran a push. Yan Ranran was taken to the hospital; the doctor publicly said she was saved, but in fact, the child was fundamentally unsavable!】

Wulongcha checked the report; the miscarriage probability is indeed too high! Now that it's close, the Shui Family and Yan Ranran will definitely throw the blame onto the Su family.

Su Yu decisively ran to big uncle's study, "Big uncle, about yesterday's matter, should we intervene?"

【Definitely don't intervene, Yan Ranran's child is about to be lost! If we intervene we'll take the blame. But if our family doesn't, the Liang Family will definitely intervene, worrying us!】

"Don't intervene!"

"Ah, great!"

Su Yu was delighted!

The happiness lasted only a short while; she soon became unhappy again.

"If we don't intervene, what about Huo Huo? What about uncle and aunt?"

【They are friendly! Mom's projects are still managed by Liang Lijiang!】

Thinking that the Liang Family might be hit with a big black pot makes Su Yu feel uneasy!

"They won't intervene either."

Su Xi has already sent the news to Zhu Xueheng. He knows Zhu Xueheng well; he knows this news won't make him act rashly!

"Really? That's sabotaging the wedding!"

【Can Zhu Xueheng just let such a serious matter slide?】

Not storming the Shui Family on the spot to scold them, Su Yu already thinks Zhu Xueheng is abnormal!

"The wedding was fine; can't find a suitable excuse, a outburst also needs evidence."

The evidence they have is too flimsy to prove anything! Now they can only step back, waiting for the enemy to slip up. It's also fine; if Yan Ranran's child truly can't be saved, there will be material online!

"Alright!"

【Great, we don't have to be the scapegoat any more】

Su Yu felt happy inside, and thought of her other little companion.

"What about Can Can? Uncle Ren seems to be injured; we don't have to go visit?"

Good night, darlings~

Add monthly tickets and extra updates when I'm feeling a bit better, okay~
