The Female Assassin Pretends to Be a Lamb in the Campus
Chapter 149: Two lives on your next knee
Chapter 149
The next day, the entire Su Family mobilized.
Hearing the doorbell ring, someone from the villa responded and ran to open the door. When the door opened, the people inside and outside the door were stunned as they looked at each other.
Huo Chengdong thought it was the food delivery he had ordered. Still holding his game controller and not even having put on his shoes, he had run over to open the door. But what greeted him was an old lady whose eyes were full of grief and excitement.
Su Family's second son, Su Zhen, spoke up in surprise, "Young Master Huo?"
Did they go to the wrong place?
Su Qingyu: "Huo Chengdong? What are you doing here?"
Huo Chengdong was tall. Seeing Su Qingyu behind Su Zhan's backside, he impatiently responded, "Why can't I be here?"
Su Qingyu silently thought to herself: What a sycophant.
"Chairman Su? Is your family here to... pay a visit to the neighbors after moving in?" Huo Chengdong asked.
Su Zhan: "We're looking for Qiao Ying."
"You guys are looking for my sister Ying? Oh I know, it's about what happened at the birthday banquet that day?" He glanced at the reluctant Su Lingwei.
Were they unable to swallow their pride and had brought the entire family to settle scores with sister Ying? Or were they unable to withstand the coercion of the Qin family's Lord of Hell, so they came to apologize?
"We have an important matter with her. Is she at home? We'd trouble Young Master Huo to help inform her." Su Zhan said sincerely.
Hearing his tone, it didn't seem like they were here to settle scores.
"Wait a moment, let me ask if she's at home."
Huo Chengdong looked at the quite refined Su brothers, then looked at the old lady by the door who had an expectant look on her face.
He didn't want to make the elderly wait at the door like that. Seeing that they seemed quite sincere, he invited them in.
"Chairman Su, please come in and sit for a while."
Su Zhan: "Thank you, Young Master Huo. Mother, go slowly."
Mother? Huo Chengdong turned to look at the old lady at the very front whose gaze had been strange the entire time. Was this the Su family's old madam?
Wasn't she said to stay at home all day chanting scriptures and prayers, never setting foot out her door?
How did she come looking for sister Ying?
As Su Zhan watched Huo Chengdong head upstairs, it seemed like he realized something. "Is this Young Master Huo... in a relationship with little Ying?"
Su Qingyu cut in, "No, he's the one chasing after her."
The Su brothers suddenly understood. So he was a suitor.
"This child has suffered a lot outside. She's always been abused by her stepmother. Fortunately, she is quite capable herself." Su Zhan sympathized with Qiao Ying as he looked around the living room.
Soon, Huo Chengdong came back downstairs.
The Su family's gazes all gathered onto him.
"Sister Ying said she's not home and told you guys to never come again." Otherwise she won't be polite.
Huo Chengdong didn't relay this last sentence.
He thought to himself: How many times have they come?
"Country bumpkins really have no manners. Grandma has come personally yet she won't even come downstairs." Su Lingwei said with a stinky face.
Su Zhen scolded his daughter. Su Old Madam also joined in lecturing her.
"Oh how well-mannered you city folks are. At President Zhang's birthday banquet, you bullied others relying on your power and caused such a huge embarrassment. If I were you, I wouldn't even have the face to step out the door." Huo Chengdong directly retorted, "Coming to someone else's home and speaking badly of the host. What kind of thing are you? Some famed young lady of the capital?"
Su Lingwei blurted, "You—"
Su Zhen cut in, "That's enough, Lingwei. I've told you countless times at home that this isn't the time for you to throw a tantrum."
He turned to Huo Chengdong with an apology.
Su Zhan said, "It's fine. We'll wait here for her to come down."
Crap! Huo Chengdong realized he had done something stupid.
"It's easy to invite a god but hard to send him away. Chairman Su, I don't think this is good... You're making things difficult for me. I'll have to get kicked out with you guys later too." Huo Chengdong directly said, "It was hard for me to even get in."
"We truly have an extremely important matter. As you can see, our entire family has come." Su Zhan sincerely and earnestly said.
Now that they had entered the door, how could the Su family be willing to just turn back.
"You guys probably don't understand my sister Ying's temper. With your persistent pestering like this, no matter what the matter is, there's no chance."
Su Zhen sighed. "We have no other choice either."
The food delivery arrived.
Huo Chengdong brought a cup of coffee upstairs to Qiao Ying but didn't dare say that the people hadn't left.
Afterwards, he ate the sumptuous delivery feast while watching the Su family young and old, thinking to himself: What on earth was going on?
After finishing the food and cleaning up, seeing that they still showed no intention of leaving, Huo Chengdong could only message Qiao Ying.
Standing in high heels, Su Lingwei's feet were sore. She watched Huo Chengdong eat his fill and play games with great enjoyment and thought to herself: He doesn't even know to entertain guests.
Su Lingwei's feet couldn't take it anymore and she wanted to secretly sit for a bit. But before her butt touched the sofa,
Huo Chengdong lazily said while gaming, "Which well-mannered one casually sits on someone else's sofa?"
Su Lingwei was a little embarrassed. "Who said I wanted to sit."
She looked back and saw her family members looking at her with dissatisfied expressions. Su Lingwei felt even more irritated inside.
They just kept waiting like that until nighttime when Qiao Ying finally came downstairs.
Upon seeing her, Su Old Madam excitedly took a step forward.
Looking at Qiao Ying's face that was identical to the woman in the photo, she emotionally said, "She's your brother's child. She's your brother's child!"
"Look at her eyes, her eyebrows. She looks exactly the same as your eldest brother!" Su Old Madam's emotions were extremely agitated and tears started flowing out. "Child, I'm your grandma!"
Su Zhen supported Old Madam. "Mom, don't get agitated first."
Grandma? Whose grandma? Huo Chengdong looked at the old lady who kept trying to walk forward, then looked upstairs at Qiao Ying.
Hey! This old lady is taking advantage of his sister Ying!
Su Zhan looked at Qiao Ying affectionately. "Child, this is all your family. This is your aunt. You've met her before." He held his daughter Su Qingyu's shoulders. "Call her sister."
Su Zhan urged, "Quick, call sister."
"I..." Su Qingyu looked at the expressionless Qiao Ying, feeling extremely awkward inside and unable to call out.
She had already learned last night that Eldest Uncle was in a free love relationship with that woman. Eldest Uncle had died from depression and no one was to blame. Grandma had admitted responsibility and Father had also lectured her a lot.
But for now, Su Qingyu still found it hard to accept.
Su Zhen said, "Child, I'm your second uncle. We met at President Zhang's birthday banquet. This is Lingwei, your cousin."
"I'm your auntie. We met that day at Lin Yu Xuan Restaurant, do you still remember? You suffered a lot outside all these years." Su Lingwei's mother gently said.
Except for Su Lingwei, the entire family came up one after another to introduce themselves.
What the hell kind of play was this that they were putting on, a parent recognition scene?
Huo Chengdong looked back and forth between them, turning his neck until it was sore. He wanted to find some melon seeds to crack open.
With her hands in her pant pockets, Qiao Ying stood at the top of the stairs, completely cold and indifferent. "Illegally trespassing a private residence. Are you waiting for the police to come or leaving by yourselves?"
"Child, we know this family has wronged you. We don't know how we can earn your forgiveness." Su Zhan said, "Our entire family has come just so you can see these family members and know that we all care deeply about you. We hope to bring you home together."
Except for Su Lingwei, the Su family spoke eagerly.
"Family?" Qiao Ying scanned the people below. "One has verbally abused me before. One drove my birth parents to their deaths. And one..." Her gaze swept past Su Lingwei as Qiao Ying smiled mockingly. "Heh—"
She was too lazy to even say.
"Child, it's Grandma who wronged you, who wronged your parents. Grandma will kneel and apologize to you, okay? Grandma will repent to you." As Su Old Madam spoke, she prepared to kneel to the floor.
"Mom—" Su Zhen quickly grabbed ahold of his mother.
"What are you doing, Grandma?" Su Lingwei couldn't stand it anymore and glared fiercely at Qiao Ying.
The Su family, both young and old, were all worried about Old Madam's health. But Qiao Ying watched as if it were all just a show. "Is that all the sincerity?"
"Isn't it enough that I apologize to you?" Seeing the elderly grandma do this, Su Qingyu couldn't bear to watch. She stood out and loudly said, "I'm sorry. I didn't know before that you were Eldest Uncle's daughter. If you resent me, go ahead and curse back at me."
"Lingwei, apologize to your sister." Su Lingwei's mother pulled her daughter forward. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝓮𝓌𝑒𝒷𝘯ℴ𝑣𝓮𝓁.𝒸ℴ𝘮
Watching this scene unfold, Qiao Ying mocked, "Fortunate there aren't any reporters here. Otherwise, people might think I was the one bullying the old lady and that I was some murderer."
The word "murderer" pierced deep into the Su family members' hearts.
Su Lingwei said, "How can you say things like that?"
Su Zhen shouted, "Lingwei!"
Qiao Ying calmly said, "Alright, stop obstructing my vision here."
She continued speaking to Su Zhan, "I've said it before. Don't disturb my life. If you're truly so free you have nothing to do, I don't mind finding some things at the Su Group for you to take care of."
Looking towards the old madam, she said, "Even if you kneel here and offer your life to me, I won't even blink an eye. I won't possibly recognize this so-called 'kinship'."
"You think kneeling here can make up for two lives just like that? You're dreaming."
To be precise, it was three lives.
Qiao Ying's death can ultimately be traced back as the Su family's responsibility as well.
"Leave, don't make me lay a hand on you."
