Chapter 14

Su Chenghua felt a lump in his throat. He was so angry that his blood wasn’t circulating well. “Su Qian, you still dare to come back!”

Su Qian put down her teacup. She looked like a lazy cat, completely different from her previous timid self. “Why wouldn’t I dare?”

“Six years have passed, and there’s been no news from you. Now, you still dare to bring your child to see me. That’s bold of you.” Su Chenghua sat down with a cold expression and said, “Su Qian, you’ve really disappointed me. You got pregnant before marriage and embarrassed the Su family. You’re not worthy of being a member of the Su family!”

Su Chenghua’s words were harsh. If the old Su Qian was sitting here, she would have been scared out of her wits.

However, today was different from the past. Su Qian looked at Su Chenghua quietly.

She knew the head of the Su family too well. He only cared about benefits. Even if she was unclean, in Su Chenghua’s eyes, she was still the daughter of the Su family. He would not stop until he squeezed out all the value she had left.

Just as Su Qian had expected, Su Chenghua suddenly changed the topic. “However, since you’re back now, as your father, I can give you a chance to turn over a new leaf. As long as you go to the ancestral hall and beg for the forgiveness of the ancestors, I will allow you to return to the Su family.”

His tone was full of pity as if Su Qian should kneel down and thank him for his forgiveness.

However, the scene that Su Chenghua had imagined didn’t happen. Su Qian merely raised her phoenix-like eyes, and there was a cold sneer in her deep eyes.

“Kneel and beg for forgiveness from our ancestors?” Su Qian laughed. Her smile was as beautiful as a peach blossom, and her eyes were full of flirtatiousness and mockery.

Su Chenghua was very satisfied with her face and didn’t notice the murderous intent hidden in Su Qian’s words. He said matter-of-factly, “Yes, as long as you can get your ancestor’s forgiveness, you can return to the Su family. Your marriage with the Ninth Prince didn’t happen in the end, and I’ve been worried about it. You’re bringing your child, so it’s not convenient for you to get married. It just so happens that the general’s wife died of illness last month, and I’ll speak on your behalf to help you to become the general’s concubine. Otherwise, you won’t have a place to stay.”

These words sounded like a piece of well-meaning advice.

Su Ye sat beside Su Qian and stared at Su Chenghua coldly with his deep and narrow eyes. He was so angry that he wanted to rip Su Chenghua’s face apart right now.

They had only been in the imperial capital for a few days, and they had all heard of the general. It was said that he was more than 70 years old this year. In terms of age, he could be his mother’s grandfather. However, that old man liked young and beautiful girls. Every time he married a wife, she would be tortured to death within three months. Did Su Chenghua not want to live anymore? How dare he humiliate his mother like this!

Su Qian wasn’t angry at all as she tugged at her son’s hand.

She only felt that the Su family was ridiculous.

Six years had passed, but these people had not improved at all, especially Su Chenghua. He did not even express a single word of concern when he saw his daughter, who had been missing for six years. In that case, she did not need to be polite.

“Master Su, I didn’t come here today to return to the Su family, but to take back what belongs to me.” Su Qian spoke slowly, and her melodious voice was like an orchid in an empty valley, slowly reverberating throughout the hall.

“Su Qian, what do you mean by that?” Su Chenghua only felt that Su Qian’s words made him very uncomfortable as if she was no longer a part of the Su family.

“My mother passed away many years ago. Today, I’m here to collect the thing that she left for me.”

Su Qian’s words made Su Chenghua’s expression change.
