Chapter 128 - Former Master and Servant
Chapter 128: Former Master and Servant
Coincidently, Jing Yuan’s butler, Uncle Fu, walked with Dr. Li into the living hall then. Before they entered, they saw Su Wan walking out of the house slowly.
When Uncle Fu saw the former little master of Jing Yuan, he was taken aback for a moment. Lots of memories arose in his mind.
Compared to three years ago, Su Wan was more mature now. Her facial features had matured and she looked prettier now. However, her naivety had been replaced with a faint weariness.
Uncle Fu unconsciously opened his mouth to ask Su Wan about her recent situation and if she had been good in the three years she spent in Dong Chen Country…
Before he could speak, he felt a sudden cold wind.
Clang! Tables, plates and a table cloth were all thrown over. Luckily, all of these things hit the door frame and did not harm anyone.
After a while, Uncle Fu heard a hysteric curse from inside. The words were not pleasant to the ears at all and were not words that would be uttered by a noble lady.
Uncle Fu pursed his lips. He knew Shen Wei, a woman who still had princess syndrome, had gone insane.
Uncle Fu was relatively calm but Dr. Li was struck dumb with bewilderment.
He had been to the Su family several times but he remembered the madam and young missy of the Su family to be quite self-disciplined. Sometimes, after consultation, they would give him presents. He had not expected to see such situation today!
Uncle took Dr. Li’s medical kit and smiled awkwardly towards him. “Please excuse me, Madam is not in a good mood today.”
After Dr. Li darted Uncle Fu a glance, he wanted to say it was fine but Uncle Fu had turned and nodded respectfully to a girl in a beige dress.
“Young Missy, are you leaving?”
Su Wan’s eyes moved and glanced at the old man greying at his temples. There was sadness in her heart.
“Yes, Uncle Fu. You must take good care of yourself.”
Upon hearing this, Uncle Fu was moved and felt a sense of pity but very quickly, his eyes were filled with shame.
“Young Missy, I’m sorry. All these years, I could only watch them move in but couldn’t…”
Su Wan saw Uncle Fu’s apologetic look and sensed the reason for his apology. Su Wan quickly shook her head.
“It’s not a problem, Uncle Fu, how could I blame you? I’m going to get the ownership of Jing Yuan back and everything will be back to normal again.”
Uncle Fu had worked with the Su family for many years now. Now that he was old and his children were all studying abroad, it would be difficult for him to find another job at his age if he were to resign because of the Su family dispute.
Su Wan understood how costly things were and how difficult life would be without money. Hence, she understood Uncle Fu’s tormented mood.
Hearing Su Wan’s console, Uncle Fu was so touched, his eyes were wet. Initially, he was afraid Su Wan would be angry with him for remaining in Jing Yuan to attend to the mother and daughter but never had he expected Su Wan, his little missy, to be more open-minded than he was.
“Thank you, Young Missy, for your understanding.”
Su Wan smiled and nodded at Uncle Fu. Then, she walked out of Jing Yuan’s main gate.
Dr. Li who had been neglected saw Su Wan leaving and couldn’t help asking curiously, “Who was that girl?”
Uncle Fu gazed at Su Wan who had gone farther away. Then, he introduced Su Wan proudly to Dr. Li. “That was the second young missy of the Su family, Su Wan. She’s a very good girl.”
Dr. Li nodded, as if thinking of something. He felt he had heard of this name. His eyes moved and he realized something.
“Is she the girl who married the young master, the one who was much talked about today?”
Dr. Li did not normally like to read the newspaper but today’s headline on S City Express Mail had caused quite a sensation. Everywhere he went, he heard people talking about Su Wan.
Uncle Fu nodded but his smile disappeared.
When he thought of the little girl whom he had seen growing up, marrying the legendary arrogant, indifferent and noble man, his worries grew. Rumor said Jiang Xuecheng was not a person who was easy to get along with.
Moreover, Su Wan and Jiang Xuecheng’s marriage was too hasty and they did not have their wedding ceremony. Even the Jiang family kept silent too.
Many people in the upper social society guessed that Su Wan’s and Jiang Xuecheng’s marriage was a fake marriage as Jiang Xuecheng had not shown interest in women in the past.
Uncle Fu and Dr. Li sighed. Then, they heard a sharp female voice from inside.
“Uncle Fu, what nonsense did you tell Dr. Li? Come in quickly…ouch, Yurou, be gentler, my knees hurt.”
Uncle Fu and Dr. Li exchanged glances helplessly and went in together. When they stepped into the living hall, both of them were terrified.
Had a war broken out in there?
They had never once seen Shen Wei in such an unkempt state. Her hands covered her face and she was breathing in pain. There was blood on her face and her knees were bleeding.
Although it was merely surface injury without internal injury after close examination, it was still a scary sight.
Dr. Li raised his brows at Uncle Fu, silently asking if this was Su Wan’s doings.
He couldn’t imagine that the gentle and elegant little girl could be so violent.
Sigh, it was true that there were grudges among the rich. No wonder the girl could marry Jiang Xuecheng. She must be a ruthless person.
When Uncle Fu saw Dr. Li’s expression, he had guessed what Dr. Li was thinking. He shook his head immediately and thought this must be Shen Wei’s own evil doing.
Su Wan was a person who held onto the principle to never attack others unless she was being attacked.
***
Su Wan who was now walking on the hill road did not know her image in Dr. Li’s mind had gone through a big change. Even if she knew, to her, there was no difference.
He was merely a stranger and she would not bother about how he or the others thought of her.
She took out the phone from her handbag and keyed in the numbers she had memorized.
The call went through very quickly. From the other end was the cold and magnetic male voice which was pleasing to the ears.
“Wan Wan, you’re done?”
Hearing the deep but simple voice, Su Wan’s gloominess subsided instantly. She half narrowed her eyes and examined the good weather. A smile appeared on her face.
“It was a start. Xuecheng, please come and pick me up. I’m now at the lower hill road of Cloud Shadow Villa.”
“Sure, please wait for me, I’ll come immediately.”
Jiang Xuecheng then ended the call and draped on his outer coat before walking toward the door. As Jiang Xuecheng had ordered Ah Si earlier on, his car was stopped outside the house.
Jiang Xuecheng opened the door and went into the car. The Koenigsegg Agera R zoomed through the busy streets like a black lightning bolt towards Cloud Shadow Villa.
