A Strange Man

Wei Xue explained the relationship between Su Meng and Shen Jian with some embellishments. When she spoke, she also emphasized that Su Meng had gone against the Wei family because of that man. Sure enough, after she finished speaking, Father Wei revealed a disgusted expression.

Father Wei thought that he had misunderstood Su Meng. He didn’t expect it to be true. His daughter-in-law was not simple. It seemed that he had been overthinking.

Father Wei sighed. He thought that his father had been coaxed by Su Meng. He had to find a way to let Grandfather Wei see Su Meng’s true colors. Otherwise, Grandfather Wei would keep stopping Wei Ting from divorcing Su Meng.

“Go back, Xiao Xue, but don’t tell anyone about what happened just now. You should know that this is the Wei family’s family scandal. If others find out, the Wei family will be laughed at,” Father Wei instructed.

Wei Xue promised him, “Don’t worry dad, I know what I should say and what I shouldn’t say. I definitely won’t embarrass the Wei family.”

After hearing this, Father Wei finally smiled in relief and praised, “As expected of my daughter, you do things appropriately. If Su Meng’s personality was half as good as yours, we wouldn’t be so angry with her.”

Wei Xue comforted her father shyly, “Although I’m happy that Dad praised me, Sister Su Meng is actually a good person. After all, she and her master have always depended on each other and had no parents to discipline her. It is understandable that she would become like this. Dad, don’t be angry with Sister Su Meng. I’ll talk to her when she’s willing to talk to me nicely.”

Seeing that there were still signs of anger on Father Wei’s face, Wei Xue hugged Father Wei’s arm coquettishly to make him happy. “Dad, you have to know that not everyone is as happy as me, having a pair of parents who dote on me. If it wasn’t for you guys, I might have grown crooked. Don’t you think so, Dad?”

Wei Xue’s mouth was very sweet, and as expected, it made Father Wei laugh. He touched the top of Wei Xue’s head and said with a smile, “Our Xiao Xue has been kind since she was young. Even if your mother and I don’t care about you, you won’t grow crooked. You’re just too kind. You’re still trying to put in a good word for Su Meng, but she doesn’t appreciate it at all.”

Wei Xue stuck out her tongue. “No matter what, even if Sister Su Meng is leaving the Wei family soon, she used to be a member of the Wei family. We’re all a family, so it’s only right that I treat her well.”

Father Wei looked at Wei Xue approvingly. He felt very gratified in his heart, thinking that he had raised a good daughter.

Wei Xue and Father Wei didn’t talk for long. They returned to their seats very quickly. Su Meng had already walked out of the villa and was in the courtyard.

She looked around but didn’t see Grandfather Wei. She couldn’t help but feel worried because Grandfather Wei didn’t look right before he came out.

Su Meng decided to look around and walked to the back of the villa.

The Wei family’s villa was too big, and the yard was even bigger. Luckily, Su Meng was familiar with the place, so it wasn’t difficult for her to find the person.

After searching a few places, Grandfather Wei wasn’t there. Su Meng was about to look elsewhere when she realized that someone was walking toward her.

Su Meng took a few glances and decided to leave.

The man seemed to have noticed Su Meng’s intention to leave. He quickly ran toward Su Meng, but Su Meng pretended not to see him and quickened her pace.

It was a pity that her body had not fully recovered, and her wounds would hurt if she pulled hard, so she could not walk too fast and was still caught up by the man.

“Miss Su, so you’re here. I knew I couldn’t find you in there.” The man stopped in front of Su Meng and smiled at her.

Su Meng didn’t know who he was, but she smiled and nodded politely. “I’m out for some fresh air. What’s the matter?”

“I have something to tell you, but Miss Su, I saw that you seemed to be looking for something. Why don’t you tell me and I’ll help you look for it first?” The man took another two steps forward.

The man was being polite, but he did not hold back as he inched closer to Su Meng. He only stopped when they were almost touching.

The man gave Su Meng a smile that he thought was very handsome. In fact, he was very handsome, but with his narcissistic look, he was a little greasy.

Su Meng thanked him politely and took two steps back. “Thank you, but it’s okay. I’m just here to take a look. If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave. Thank you for your help.”

After that, she turned around to leave, but the man stretched out his arm to stop her.
