Chapter 485 Spilled it out
Where on one side the competition went in full swing between the cousins, the mission to make An Yueqin confess was going on just as fiercely.
"Pretty Aunty!" Chyou's eyes sparkled. "My Dada is back home!"
They were at the park after her school was over just as An Yueqin had promised her. It was a risk coming out like this, but she couldn't help it when her granddaughter's happiness was involved. The more days passed by, the more she saw how Chyou was blatantly ignored as she spent time with her after school.
She chuckled. "I know, I know. You have been telling me this everyday since your father is back. Your mother must be so happy, right?"
"En!" Her small face beamed. "Mama is really happy. Mama and Dada are lovey dovey again!"
"Good, good. Do you still feel lonely at home?"
Chyou remembered what An Guoting and Zizi had said to her.
'Even if Xiaosi is back, you need to continue acting like a pitiful child. Just say this…'
She pursed her lips and lowered her head. "I do, Pretty Aunty. Aunt Zizi said that Dada is back, so I should give more lovey-dovey time to Mama and Dada because Mama and Dada were far for many days!"
She coughed. "I-I see…"
"En. Aunt Zizi said to live with Grandpa for a few days. But Grandpa is busy…" she sadly shifted her weight from one foot to another.
An Yueqin clutched her chest in pain. She felt so furious at An Guoting that she wished to smack him hard.
"Grandpa was coming to pick me up. My friends have left. I am still alone…When will Grandpa come?" She clung to her thighs and raised her head showing her big, watery eyes. "Do I have to go home alone? But I don't know the way…"
"No, no! It's dangerous for a child to go anywhere alone, okay? You will do no such thing. Your Grandpa will surely come. Let's wait for a while more."
Time ticked by, but there was no sign of him.
An Yueqin paced back and forth in impatience.
What is this man doing!?
Chyou expressed, feeling saddened. "Pretty Aunty, I will go back on my own."
"No! I will drop you back," her palms felt itchy, "and have a good talk with your so-called Grandpa."
—
An residence.
They stood at the gate where An Yueqin glared at the guard. "Call your Master right now."
He was dumbfounded.
Who is she to talk like that?
He gulped.
But she seems dangerous…
When An Guoting came out, he noticed Chyou and exclaimed. "Chyou, who brought you here? I was about to come to fetch you!"
An Yueqin's face blackened.
"Oh and when would that be Mr. An?" She sneered. "Perhaps when your granddaughter decides to leave for home by herself because her 'responsible' grandfather is busy doing tons of work?"
He widened his eyes seeing her. He quickly pulled Chyou to his side and indignantly asked, "What are you doing here with Chyou? How dare you be near her?"
He lowered his head and berated Chyou. "Didn't I tell you not to be with this Pretty Aunty? She hurt your friend Siying, and she can hurt you too! How will I face Caihong if something happens to you?"
Chyou bit her lip. "Pretty Aunty is nice…She plays with me. Grandpa doesn't."
"How many times have I told you? Grandpa is a little busy nowadays. But I promised to play with you once I am done! Chyou, you are becoming a bad and disobedient girl."
Her eyes teared up, and her little body trembled. "Chyou is a bad girl…?"
An Yueqin had it. She stepped closer to An Guoting, and he asked, alarmed, "What? Stay away from us."
She suddenly jabbed her foot on his knee, making him yelp in pain. "Ouchhhh!!!" He almost stumbled on the ground. "What the hell are you doing!?"
"SHUT UP!" She roared. "JUST SHUT UP!"
An Guoting froze. When he looked up, he saw her body shaking in anger, and her eyes shooting deadly beams at him.
Ugh…did I go too far? I shouldn't forget that she has an Underworld background…
His forehead broke into a cold sweat. He felt a terrible pain in his knee.
"Now you just listen to me, Guoting!" She pulled Chyou to her side and exclaimed. "I am taking Chyou with me to my house! You don't deserve to be her grandfather! Oh God, you are sick and disgusting! I thought you will dote on Chyou just like how you always doted and loved Caihong! IT WAS THIS REASON THAT I COULD LEAVE CAIHONG AT YOUR SIDE YEARS AGO BECAUSE I KNEW YOU WILL BE A GOOD FATHER!"
He stiffened.
"But now looking at how you treat Chyou, I wonder how really good of a father you were for Caihong!? Tell me! What kind of a father you were to her? Did you ignore her? Did you leave her alone when she was little? Did you ever bother to take care of her? Oh, how would you? I think you were quite busy managing your new marriage with your new wife, weren't you? So much that you began to sideline your blood daughter!"
An Guoting stared at her, stunned.
She sneered. "Or was your new wife couldn't tolerate Caihong's presence and so tried to drive you away from her like how typical stepmothers do? And you fell for it like how typical husbands do? Is that why you are treating Chyou like this? Because of her?"
He was speechless.
How does she know about Meiying but not know that we are separated now?
She clutched Chyou's hand. "Chyou, dear. Pretty Aunty will take you away from here. You don't have to live with someone who doesn't love and respect you."
"Umm-"
"Shut up! You already spewed a lot of nonsense! I cannot tolerate it anymore! Hurting my granddaughter again and again...do you even realize what effect it would have on her mind!?"
An Guoting stared at her and burst into laughter.
"You...You can still laugh at this point? So shameless!"
He shook his head. "I am laughing because you are back. My wife, An Yueqin is back."
