Chapter 57 - 57 Breaking Through
57 Breaking Through
Seeing that Grandpa Le’s face had darkened, Le Yan quickly broke free from Fu Sui’s arms and explained,
“Grandpa, we’re not what you think we are.”
Le Yan only felt that she was too unlucky today. Because of a necklace, she fought with Le An. Not only was she scratched a few times, but she even pulled out a lot of her hair. In the end, she was punished to stand until her waist and legs were sore. She had thought that after this incident, she would be able to relax a little, but she didn’t expect Fu Sui to arrive early.
These days, she felt that something was wrong with Fu Sui. He was no longer the same as before, accommodating her in everything. He had also become more eccentric and aggressive, and his words and actions towards her had become frivolous. Also, according to the information she had gathered, Fu Sui had actually agreed to go on a date with another girl.
Le Yan didn’t know if this was Fu Sui’s nature, but he always made her feel scared and unable to fight back. So recently, she had been making all kinds of excuses to avoid meeting him. She didn’t expect to be stopped by Fu Sui on her birthday.
Because they had been living under the same roof, her relationship with the two elders had become much closer. For this reason, her grandfather held a birthday party for her and publicly acknowledged her identity as the second miss of the Le family.
That was why Le Yan didn’t want to break this situation. Fu Sui’s identity was too sensitive. He had just canceled his engagement with Le Wan, and the two old men were dissatisfied with him. If they knew that she was the one who had gotten involved with him, they would be very disappointed in her. She couldn’t let the two old men see her with Fu Sui; so in a moment of desperation, she pulled him into the greenhouse.
However, in the enclosed space of the greenhouse, it was even easier for Fu Sui to do things. He directly kissed and touched her, and Le Yan couldn’t push him away at all.
Le Yan wanted to say that she was wronged, but the remaining lust on her face and her slightly messy dress made her words completely unconvincing. Now, no matter how she explained, Grandpa Le would not believe her anymore.
Grandpa Le was very angry, but he did not lose his cool to scold his child in front of outsiders. He controlled his voice and said,
“Since you know that today is your big day, why don’t you go out and prepare?”
His voice was not loud, but Le Yan was still scared by the anger in his words and broke out in a cold sweat. She quickly ran out of the greenhouse with a pale face.
Grandpa Le’s eyes fell on Fu Sui. Fu Sui had already put away his frivolous appearance and tidied up his clothes when Grandpa Le’s attention was on Le Yan, so he looked as obedient and polite as he usually was.
Old Master Le was particularly dissatisfied with his fickle behavior, especially when the person he was provoking was his own child. His face was not as warm as usual. He said with a tense expression,
“Young master Fu, the guest room is in the main hall, not the greenhouse. Please move out.”
“I’m sorry, Grandpa.”
Fu Sui was quite polite to his elders. He bowed and went out.
Seeing that there were no outsiders, the anger in Elder Le’s heart was completely revealed on his face. When he turned around and saw Le An bending over to avoid him, he stopped her.
“Did you know that the two of them were together from the beginning?”
That was why Le Wan wanted to break off the engagement. The news of the two sisters fighting over the same husband was too unpleasant to hear. If it were to spread, it would only make people look down on the Le family and the three sisters!
Le An saw that the old man’s face had turned pale from anger and quickly dodged the question.
“This is a matter between second sister and eldest sister. I’m not very clear about it.”
Old Master Le had lived for so many years, so he could guess that Le An must have led him here on purpose to find out about Le Yan and Fu Sui. He glared at her.
“I’ll deal with you later.”
After being rattled by his two restless granddaughters, grandfather Le was no longer in the mood to pick flowers. He staggered out of the greenhouse and met Le Wan, who was smiling and talking. He finally felt a little happier. Fortunately, he still had a well-behaved and sensible granddaughter.
“Grandpa, are you okay?” Seeing that his lips had turned pale, Le Wan went up to help him up nervously.
Grandpa Le patted her hand.
“I’m sorry.”
Le Wan was stunned for a moment before she realized what he was talking about. She smiled and said,
“This isn’t a big deal. I should be happy that we can stop our losses in time.”
