Chapter 833: Chapter 622: This Family Is Truly Terrifying

Su Xiaomeng held her grandfather as they left Yin Shiqing’s house.

Su Jikang stood outside the red walls of the villa. He slightly raised his head. It was two in the afternoon, and the sun was even fiercer...

The sunlight was so intense that the elderly man couldn’t open his eyes.

"Meng Meng..."

"Hmm?"

"Did you see your grandaunt’s fate?"

"..."

Su Xiaomeng’s heart was stunned. She quickly looked towards Su Jikang. The sun was glaring, and Xiao Meng couldn’t clearly see her grandfather’s face...

"She acquiesced to her daughter breaking up another’s family and let her daughter marry such a man... She must bear the sins she created herself."

Su Jikang spoke in an authentic Chengdu dialect.

Xiao Meng listened and closed her eyes...

She had been struggling with whether to get involved in this case because her thoughts matched what her grandfather was saying now.

Grandaunt must bear the sins she created herself.

Guo Tong is her daughter, and she didn’t pull her back when she began to stray, even indulging in the riches and face her daughter brought.

This undoubtedly pushed Guo Tong into a deep pit of greed and desire...

Looking back, even if one regrets it until their gut turns green, it won’t change the facts.

But...

Xiao Meng looked at the ground beneath her feet and thought about the large villa behind...

She was truly unwilling.

How could there be such wicked people in this world? They are unmoved by the slightest bit by the decline of life.

No wonder grandfather said this mansion feels quite terrifying?

This whole family...

"You... You’re... Su Xiaomeng?!"

Just as Su Xiaomeng was lost in thought, a girl walking towards her exclaimed in surprise, her expression full of excitement and happiness.

Xiao Meng was brought back from her reverie and looked at the girl in front of her, who was as young as herself.

She held a professional guidebook for interpreting in her hands.

Xiao Meng was sure she did not know this girl but hesitated slightly and nodded,

"I am. Who are you?"

"You really are Su Xiaomeng! I’m your fan! My name is Yang Xiaoxue! I’m super worshipful of you! Can you sign for me?"

Yang Xiaoxue’s appearance was very delicate, her skin as white and translucent as snow, indicating she was a girl raised in a good family.

Her eyes weren’t very big, but they were bright and clear, with a classical beauty.

Xiao Meng was startled by this sudden encounter with a "fan." Since when did she have fans?

"Give me a signature, please..."

Yang Xiaoxue, seeing Xiao Meng not respond for quite some time, couldn’t help but feel a bit disappointed, afraid Xiao Meng didn’t want to sign, she pleadingly requested again.

Despite feeling a bit embarrassed, Xiao Meng took the interpreting guidebook from Yang Xiaoxue’s hands,

"Sign on the title page?"

"Yes, yes, that’s fine!"

Yang Xiaoxue was overjoyed, "This year, I’m also going to apply to the University of Bath’s Modern Language College. I was just hoping to meet you before the exams, and I didn’t expect heaven to be so gracious to me!"

"Bath?"

"Yeah, the ’Bathtub’ University! Haha!"

Xiao Meng couldn’t help but curve her lips in a reminiscent arc as she heard "Bathtub." Bath, in English, translates to a "bathtub" in Chinese.

Many Chinese students affectionately refer to the University of Bath as "Bathtub University."

"By the way, why are you here?"

Yang Xiaoxue glanced at the Yin family’s villa, looking suspicious.

"It’s nothing, just visiting relatives."

"Relatives... Yin’s relatives?"

Yang Xiaoxue said in surprise.

Xiao Meng nodded slightly, kind of.

Yang Xiaoxue’s expression showed a complex emotion.

Xiao Meng, having sharp eyes, quickly caught this emotion, "What’s wrong?"

"I... Can I ask you something?"

"What is it?"

"A few days ago, I met an elderly lady in the community, wearing a thick brand-name wool coat in the summer. I later learned that she was Yin’s in-law, and I escorted her to the Yin family."

"..."

Xiao Meng tried to suppress the shock in her heart. She hadn’t expected this girl to be the one who brought her grandaunt to Yin Bowen’s place.

"But unexpectedly that night, the elderly lady passed away..."

"..."

"This matter hasn’t spread, but my home is across from the Yin family. That night the police came and quietly settled the issue..."

"Yes."

Su Xiaomeng answered.

"I just want to know... how did that elderly lady die... After all, I took her there. She seemed so pitiful... so..."

"You’re Yang Xiaoxue, right?"

"Yes."

"Do you have some time later?"

"Ah?"

Su Xiaomeng smiled slightly at her, "I’ll buy you a coffee."

Yang Xiaoxue’s eyes suddenly lit up, clearly surprised!

————

At this time, the Yin household was not just occupied by Yin Bowen; Yin Shiqing was also at home. However... he did not come forward.

Perhaps for matters like this, he did not need to come forward to explain anything.

He was in the study working, looking at documents, not caring when Xiao Meng arrived or left downstairs.

However, Yin Bowen had spoken with Su Xiaomeng face-to-face briefly, yet, after they left, his mood could not calm down for a long time.

"You think calling the police will make everything okay?"

"The legal clause of ’self-defense,’ do you think it’s that simple? Grandaunt wasn’t entirely in control of herself; she had a mental illness. Moreover, the autopsy showed that before grandaunt died, her chest was heavily hit, with a foot."

When Su Xiaomeng said this, her gaze instinctively fell on Yin Bowen’s feet, her lips curled slightly,

"The ’self-defense’ immunity was found well, but have you understood the limits and measures of ’self-defense’ stipulated by law? Hmph."

Yin Bowen never expected this woman would go to check the autopsy results.

It’s not hard to deduce from Su Xiaomeng’s words that she had done legal consultations on this matter...

Yin Bowen also went to understand the criteria for determining "self-defense," which made him a little guilty, but he is Yin’s son; who dares to hassle him?

Does Guo Jianping dare?

Or does that yellow-haired kid Guo Shuai dare?

But Su Xiaomeng...

This reckless woman probably really dares...

Shi Haiyan returned from outside, just missing Su Xiaomeng and her grandfather who had left not long ago.

Upon returning she saw her son sitting on the sofa, absentmindedly biting his fingers,

"What are you thinking about?"

"Mom... I think I need to find a way to warn Su Xiaomeng... This woman is becoming increasingly arrogant; if left unchecked..."

When Shi Haiyan heard her son say this, she dismissively said,

"Are you really afraid of Su Xiaomeng? All she’s said and done is just a pretense; you think she’s truly that powerful? She’s just a paper tiger..."

Yin Bowen couldn’t agree with his mother’s rash conclusion and shook his head seriously,

"No... When Uncle was around, she might have been a paper tiger, but now... she’s become a real tiger, and many have paid a heavy price for underestimating her."

"..."

Shi Haiyan frowned even deeper.

"This can’t go on. These Su Family people are all the same. That old man who came with Su Xiaomeng today, he looks like a countryman, yet he looked at me with that kind of gaze..."

"..."

"Su Jifang was asking for death! Even if I hadn’t kicked her down the stairs to die, I would eventually have to get rid of her, she was just an eyesore..."

"Bowen! Don’t ever say that again."

"Humph!"

Yin Bowen snorted, "Annoying, all of them!"

Shi Haiyan furrowed her brows and walked over to Yin Bowen, softly advising,

"The servants in the house have their ears open, what if your words get out?"

"I want to see who dares!"

Yin Bowen said angrily.

At the corner of the stairs on the second floor, a short boy leaned against the wall, his dark eyes carrying thoughts unreadable to others, showing a mournful expression far beyond his age.

In his hand was his younger brother Yin Junfan’s milk bottle...

"Really... this house is terrifying."

The doorbell rang again, the servant went to open the door, then turned to Yin Bowen and Shi Haiyan saying, "Madam, young master, Minister Wu is here."

Yin Bowen squinted slightly, quickly telling his mother, "Please inform father that Uncle Wu is here."
