Jiang Sun was surprised. This woman had been in the house for less than a day, yet she could already tell that they were a bunch of black-hearted schemers?
“Then tell me, what do you think their goal is?”
“Think about it yourself. After they arrived, they said they wanted justice—but first they talked about how well they’d treated you, then complained about your heartlessness. They lifted themselves high into the position of victims, yet never mentioned the key point. Why do you think that is?”
Jiang Sun scoffed. “Because the reason Jiang Mingguang got beaten isn’t important to them. They just want to play the victims and get Grandpa to beat me up.”
Xu Suyu smiled faintly. “Would Grandpa beating you really mean anything? I’ve only just met you, and even I can tell you wouldn’t change or apologize. Do you really think they came just to make a scene for nothing?”
Jiang Sun let out a short laugh. Of course they hadn’t come for nothing.
If he refused to apologize, the old man would take the initiative to make amends on his behalf, give that family some benefits to appease them. Wasn’t Jiang Mingguang’s university placement obtained that very way?
The old master was no fool. He had figured it out by now. But could his second son’s wife really be the kind of woman who would return home, slander Jiang Sun’s reputation, and scheme against him just to achieve her goal?
Thinking back, if Xu Suyu hadn’t stopped him earlier, he would have almost beaten the innocent Jiang Sun because of a few words from that mother and son.
He looked at Jiang Sun, his expression grave.
Jiang Sun leaned back slightly, wary. “Hey, old man, why are you looking at me like that? You’re giving me goosebumps.”
“You little bastard,” the old master scolded, though his voice was no longer thunderous. “Didn’t you use your brain? Suyu just arrived today. Why aren’t you taking her to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy a few outfits and daily necessities? Do you have to be kicked before you move?”
“Alright, alright,” Jiang Sun said helplessly as he stood up.
“You look so delicate and fragile, and yet you actually…”
Xu Suyu calmly cut him off. “Are you going or not?”
“Going!”
“Then stop talking nonsense. Let’s head out separately. After it’s done, meet me at the entrance of the supply and marketing cooperative.”
Jiang Sun stared at her retreating figure and let out a roguish chuckle.
So, this was a dainty little fox with sharp teeth.
Life from now on suddenly seemed like it was going to get interesting.
