Chapter 126 Making Trouble (Second Update)

Chapter 126: 126 Making Trouble (Second Update)Listening to Wu Ershun’s words, Su Xiaofeng felt the gloom that had been in her heart dissipate unexpectedly. Wu Ershun was just Wu Ershun, straightforward and simple, without the usual worldly manners. She merely said lightly, "If it’s not too much trouble, you should come to my house less often in the future to avoid any misunderstandings." Wu Ershun raised his eyebrows, "What misunderstandings? Your family’s food is delicious, and everyone is so nice; I like coming over. Let people talk if they want." Su Xiaofeng: ... Why did she feel like she was talking to a wall? "I appreciate your high regard for me," Su Xiaofeng spoke again; "But my reputation isn’t good to begin with, and you, coming from a prominent family, getting close to me, it won’t do your reputation any good." "What’s reputation? Can you eat it?" Wu Ershun was indifferent. "I’m telling you, Su Xiaofeng, you usually act boldly, so what’s with you today, hesitating and mumbling. Ultimately, in life, who doesn’t have a few friends, right? Don’t worry, I have no designs on you." He had initially made contact with Su Xiaofeng because of Ye Cheng, and after a few interactions with Su Xiaofeng, he naturally became friends with her. "I have no designs on you either," Su Xiaofeng responded. Wu Ershun laughed heartily, "That settles it then, I have no designs on you, and you have none on me. But honestly, when my brother gets better, I’m thinking of introducing you to him." "Please don’t," Su Xiaofeng’s brow twitched. "Forget about it. If you’re going to think like that, I’ll be sure to keep my distance from you in the future." Watching her reaction, Wu Ershun found it amusing, and it was rare to see someone not want to marry his brother. He Ximei cooked quite a few dishes, and they looked delicious. "Ye Cheng, Ershun, would you guys like some wine?" There was plenty of homemade rice wine brought down from home. "I’ll have some," Wu Ershun picked up his bowl, then remembered something important, "Actually, let’s not drink now. After dinner, I have to take Ye Cheng to a follow-up appointment for my brother." Just the food would be fine, they could talk about drinking another time. Hearing the Wu family name, Xiaofeng’s lips curled slightly; the Wu family had decided she was chasing after Ershun, and this issue wasn’t going to blow over easily. After dinner, as she watched Ye Cheng and Wu Ershun leave, He Ximei felt in high spirits, "Xiaofeng, I think Doctor Ye is quite a good man. Have you found out where he’s from?" Doctor Ye only lived with a grandfather and didn’t seem to have any parents. "I don’t know, why should I inquire about him?" Xiaofeng was drafting a contract, as the factory was supposed to transfer ownership in a few days, and some clauses certainly needed prior consideration. He Ximei opened her mouth but ultimately held back her words. The young have their own plans, and if Ye Cheng was interested in Xiaofeng, he would have expressed it by now; if not, it would be awkward for Xiaofeng if she pointed it out now. — Seeing Ye Cheng entering, Grandma Wu’s face was filled with a warm and kind smile. He had excellent medical skills and methods to cure her eldest grandson’s illness, she had to treat him like she would treat a deity. "Doctor Ye, the medicine prescribed by your grandfather is really effective. Yifan felt much better after taking it. I wonder when he could spare the time to see Yifan again?" The young man before her was also quite skilled, but obviously not as experienced as his grandfather. Ye Cheng, standing at the staircase, looked cold and chic, raised his eyebrows slightly, put on his gloves and mask, leaving only his eyes visible, and went upstairs without a word. As she watched him go upstairs, Grandma Wu glanced at Wu Ershun, irritated, "Ershun, Granny asks you, where were you at noon?" "Granny, I went to have lunch at a friend’s place." "Did you go to Su Xiaofeng’s house?" Grandma Wu, with a furious expression, pressed on, "Tell Granny, is that girl Su Xiaofeng trying to latch onto you?" Wu Ershun blinked repeatedly, confused, "Mom, I did go to Su Xiaofeng’s for lunch, but it’s not what you’re thinking." "What do you mean by this and that? Luo Yuzhu herself told me that you and Su Xiaofeng are dating, and because of it, she even severed the mother-daughter relationship with her. I’m telling you, don’t be so naive as to be deceived by someone." Su Xiaofeng, that kind of woman, she understood her all too well, just like her own mother, nothing more than wanting to break away from their poor life, hoping to make it big. Ershun had never even had a girlfriend and was inevitably attracted to beauty. Upon hearing this, Wu Ershun stood up abruptly, "How could Luo Yuzhu do this? Xiaofeng is her daughter, and she thinks so lowly of her own child. To me, it’s better off not having such a mother." Just because he stood with Su Xiaofeng for a while at the Lin Family’s place yesterday, he was viewed as her boyfriend by the Lin Family. How ridiculous was that? "Just because she is Su Xiaofeng’s mother, of course, she knew her daughter and you are impossible. Ershun, I’m telling you, you mustn’t associate with her anymore. What good intentions could a woman like that have towards you? At first, she declined to marry your elder brother and then turned her attention to you. She is the most disgusting woman I have ever seen, utterly shameless." To have her marry the eldest, she refused. Now, she’s clinging to the younger brother, such a woman if not scheming, what is she? Wu Ershun, listening to his grandmother’s words, got angry, "Grandma, I’m an adult now, I know who I should associate with and who I shouldn’t." Grandma Wu, seeing Wu Ershun’s unyielding demeanor, was infuriated, "You are still defending her, still no feelings? You are really infuriating me to death." Wu Ershun fired back, "Grandma, not everyone is as unbearable as you think they are. Yes, I feel sympathy for Su Xiaofeng, so I will help her out if she’s in trouble, but we are just ordinary friends." Grandma Wu was about to say something when she saw Ye Cheng descending the stairs, so she quickly shut her mouth, "We’ll settle this matter later." After Ye Cheng left and saw Wu Ershun about to go out, Grandma Wu, with a grim face, stood there, "These days, aside from staying at home, you are not to go anywhere else. Ershun, you are a person of status, you can’t just want any woman, not to mention that Su Xiaofeng is pregnant. Think about how people will see you, what they will think of you." They never should have brought Su Xiaofeng into the house in the first place, the nerve of her. "Grandma, you all always think of things in the worst way possible." Wu Ershun was speechless, "Let me tell you, Xiaofeng’s father is also one of Doctor Liu’s patients; I’ve seen her several times at Doctor Liu’s, so that’s how we know each other. Besides, she’s actually a nice person, not as despicable as you imagine." Why must their thoughts be so complex? Wouldn’t it be better to keep things simple? Grandma Wu wanted to say more, but Zhang Jiaojiao hurried in from outside, flustered, "Mom, Mom, something big has happened." Seeing her flustered look, Grandma Wu was displeased, "Did the sky fall down?" "Mom." Zhang Jiaojiao, clutching her purse and not noticing Wu Ershun on the side, spoke with urgency, "Mom, didn’t we send three people to trouble Su Xiaofeng at noon? They somehow got bitten by something poisonous, all three are adamant it happened while they were doing our bidding, and now they are demanding compensation." "They want compensation for a few bug bites?" Grandma Wu’s displeasure deepened upon hearing this. "Their lips are rotting away, oozing pus and blood, it looks horrifying. The doctors also don’t know what the poison is, and they said their lips might not be salvageable." She initially thought it was a minor injury, but after people went to see them, she was shocked. "Is it that serious?" Grandma Wu glanced at Zhang Jiaojiao, "So how did they manage the job they were sent to do?" If the job wasn’t done properly and they still expected compensation, that was certainly not possible. "They said Su Xiaofeng was too strong, they were no match for her, they intended to teach Su Xiaofeng a lesson but ended up being taught a lesson themselves..." Zhang Jiaojiao hadn’t finished speaking when Wu Ershun, his face turning the color of liver, interjected, "Grandma, Mom, how could you do this? Sending people to teach her a lesson without knowing the facts, what are you turning me into?" He had thought Grandma was only verbally expressing her concerns, considering the elderly often think a lot and think ahead; he could understand that. But now, their actions were beyond his comprehension. No wonder Su Xiaofeng had asked him not to visit her anymore during lunch; it turned out this was the reason. "Ershun." Zhang Jiaojiao just noticed her son, but what experience did the boy have in such matters? "Yesterday Luo Yuzhu came over and said you are dating her daughter, and of course, we were upset when we heard that. You’re young and you don’t understand, a woman like Su Xiaofeng is overly ambitious, she needs a lesson, or she won’t know her place." Wu Ershun was so infuriated he was fuming, "You are truly unreasonable." "Where are you going?" Zhang Jiaojiao asked as he headed for the door, a bad feeling in her heart. "Do I have to report everywhere I go to you?" Wu Ershun couldn’t believe Su Xiaofeng was saddled with a mother like Luo Yuzhu. Blaming his interactions with her daughter on seduction was just ridiculous. seaʀᴄh thё nôvel_Fire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Look, enchanted by a femme fatale." Grandma Wu watched his retreating figure, pain gripping her heart. "Jiaojiao, Su Xiaofeng must leave here, otherwise our Ershun will be ruined by her hands." Such misfortune, truly such misfortune.
