Chapter 6: Night Before the Divorce the Villainous Family Can Hear My Thoughts!

 

  Chapter 6: The Female Lead Awakens

What did he just hear? Why did he hear Shen Cheng’s voice when she hadn't spoken?

And what was this about Huo Xingjian's death being deserved? Wasn't it unjust?

【This elderly man had always been kind and polite to everyone. But he was the first to die, simply because he had stumbled upon the affair between the male and female leads.】

【At that time, Huo Xingjian had told the old man that Li Qingxue was his girlfriend.】

【And just after reluctantly accepting this granddaughter-in-law whom he didn’t like, he caught his beloved grandson being cuckolded.】

【For someone so old, to die like this—drowned in a cesspit by Li Qingxue.】

What?!

Old Master Wen’s eyes widened in disbelief and fear.

He was drowned in a cesspit by Li Qingxue? And this foolish boy had told him that Li Qingxue was his girlfriend?

If Li Qingxue was his girlfriend, then what happened to Shen Cheng? Was he planning to abandon her?

That couldn’t be allowed! He absolutely wouldn’t permit it!

"Grandpa, how are you feeling?" Shen Cheng suppressed the sadness in her heart and affectionately took hold of Old Master Wen’s arm.

【No, I can’t let Grandpa die in vain! Grandpa is the only one who truly cares for me. Even if I don’t save Huo Xingjian, I can’t leave Grandpa to die.】

【Once I divorce Huo Xingjian and take most of his wealth, I’ll take Grandpa and leave this city. Away from the male and female leads, Grandpa can live a long life!】

【As for Huo Xingjian, let him battle with the male lead for the woman! Whether he lives or dies, it has nothing to do with me!】

"You brat, you must’ve been bullying Xiao Chengzi again!" Old Master Wen patted Shen Cheng’s hand and raised his hand to smack the back of Huo Xingjian’s neck.

"How many times have I told you, Xiao Chengzi is a good child! Treat her better! But you’ve let it go in one ear and out the other!"

Huo Xingjian didn’t dare to resist and could only accept his grandfather’s "affection."

He then started to dodge, retreating toward the front of the yard.

Old Master Wen naturally didn’t let him off easily and chased after him, continuing to smack him.

Shen Cheng stood there, stunned, watching the two of them, not knowing how to react for a moment.

【Hahaha… Huo Xingjian got beaten? After living for thirty years, being pampered since childhood and having no real rivals, Huo Xingjian, on his thirtieth birthday, actually got beaten?】

【Should I record this video? Even if we divorce in the future, this will become my source of amusement!】

【After all, apart from the male lead, Huo Xingjian has never been humiliated by anyone. It’s always been him who left others unable to fight back!】

【Grandpa is still treating me so well! He immediately knew I was being bullied by that dog of a man, Huo Xingjian.】

"Young Madam, come inside," the maid, Wu Ma, said with a smile. "The old master knew you were coming, so he specially made your favorite lotus seed and snow fungus soup."

"It's hot outside, come inside and cool down. Drink a bowl of silver fungus soup to beat the heat. As for the young master, let the old master discipline him!"

Old Master Wen chased Huo Xingjian into the backyard, and once he confirmed that Shen Cheng hadn’t followed, he finally stopped.

"Huo Xingjian, I’m telling you, cut all ties with that Li Qingxue!" Old Master Wen glared at him fiercely, speaking angrily.

"Grandpa, I didn’t…" 

"If you dare let her become your girlfriend, don’t ever call me Grandpa again! I’ll pretend I don’t have you as a grandson! Anyway, I have more than one grandson!" 

"Grandpa, you…" Huo Xingjian looked straight at him, his eyes unblinking. "Can you… hear Shen Cheng’s thoughts too?"

"Also?" Old Master Wen repeated the word, furrowing his brows. "What do you mean? You can hear them too?"

Huo Xingjian nodded.

Then Old Master Wen slapped the back of his neck again, "You brat, why do you get to hear Xiao Chengzi’s thoughts? You don’t care about her, and she’s not even in your heart!"

"Xiao Chengzi is right. Your death is your own doing! If you dare to divorce Xiao Chengzi, you’d better leave with nothing!"

"All your assets should go to her. And you get out of the company! I want to see if, when you’re broke, Li Qingxue will still want you!"

Huo Xingjian reached up to touch the back of his neck. "Grandpa, I’m not planning to divorce her."

"Pah!" Old Master Wen spat at him irritably. "So what, you’re still planning to have both women? Let me tell you, don’t even think about it!"

"I’ll give you two options! First, live well with Xiao Chengzi, and cut ties completely with that Li Qingxue! Second, get out, go live with Li Qingxue, and I’ll recognize Xiao Chengzi as my granddaughter. All my belongings will go to her!"

"Also, Xiao Chengzi is right! I’ll leave this city with her! Whether you live or die, it’s none of my business! If you want to be with that Li Qingxue, then you’re handing over your life to her!"

"I’m absolutely not going to let her drown me in a cesspool!"

"That makes me so angry! So angry!"

He actually let her drown him in a cesspool!

"What’s the deal with that so-called male lead that Xiao Chengzi keeps talking about?" Old Master Wen asked, his voice now calm.

Huo Xingjian shook his head. "I don’t know either. She just keeps talking about him, but never says his name."

Upon hearing this, Old Master Wen shot him an angry glare. "You useless thing! You don’t even understand your own wife! Xiao Chengzi is such a good woman, but you don’t like her and instead fall for that manipulative Li Qingxue!"

"Grandpa, I don’t like Li Qingxue," Huo Xingjian quietly retorted.

Old Master Wen snapped, "You don’t like her? Then why did you pay for her medical bills for three years? Why did you arrange the best hospital rooms for her, hire the best medical team? And you even took care of her sister for three years!"

"I just did it because it was my fault she got into trouble," Huo Xingjian replied quietly.

"Pah!" Old Master Wen spat again. "When your mother gave birth to you, did she only give you a head and forget to put a brain inside?"

"What right does she have to care for you? She knows you’re already married, yet she still approaches you? She knows her place—what’s so good about her?"

"Xiao Chengzi said she’s the female lead. That means her so-called male lead is in on it! Have you never thought that maybe she’s the one the male lead arranged to be by your side as an insider?"

"Where’s your brain? Every time something comes up about Li Qingxue, your brain just shuts off!"

"Grandpa…"

"If I were you, I’d go investigate who that so-called male lead is!" Old Master Wen cut him off, giving him a look of disdain before walking toward the house, muttering "useless" under his breath.

"Xiao Chengzi, is the silver fungus soup good?" Old Master Wen walked over to Shen Cheng with a cheerful expression. "I’ve given that brat a good lesson! He promised me he’ll never have anything to do with the Li sisters again."

Shen Cheng lifted her gaze, just as Huo Xingjian’s phone rang. "Hello? What did you say? Qingxue is awake! I’m coming right now!"
