Chapter 6: Taking Back the Inheritance
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The next day was the big day for Su Jiaojiao and Gu Sinan, and various figures from high society showed up. Suddenly, a black car appeared at the entrance.
A pair of strappy heels stepped on the ground, as the beautiful figure of a woman, wrapped in a long black dress, appeared.
The color of her dress stood out at the wedding venue. After all, attending a wedding in a black gown was rather inappropriate.
The chestnut brown hair that reached her waist and her striking beauty caught the eyes of many.
She is too gorgeous!
Men considered venturing to talk to her, but before they could step up, two more people got out of the car. A little girl and a little boy.
Su Mubai held her brother’s hand and stood next to Su Xiaonai. She was not a bit uncomfortable being showered by attention. Instead, she was in her element.
As for Su Mubei, he completely ignored what was happening around him and only held his mother’s hand as they entered the banquet hall.
Neither of the children said anything but followed their mother dutifully.
They seemed to have understood that this wasn’t the best moment for throwing tantrums.
Mommy is on her way to do something big. We will not drag her down.
Scanning around the hall, Su Xiaonai saw the figure she was searching for—her stepmother, Wang Shenglan.
That vicious woman who loved money more than anything and caused Su Xiaonai’s downfall.
With grace, Su Xiaonai walked up to Wang Shenglan and smiled politely, although there was no smile in her eyes.
“Auntie Wang, it has been a while, hasn’t it…”
For a moment, Wang Shenglan was stunned as she looked towards Su Xiaonai, who was standing in front of her. Then she registered the greeting from Su Xiaonai, and the way she referred to her. A look of anger flashed across her face.
Her whole life she had detested being addressed as “Auntie Wang”, as she felt it made her sound like a servant.
“Well, well, isn’t this the person who killed her father? Why, it seems like you still have some spare time to attend your sister’s wedding.”
Su Xiaonai couldn’t be bothered to put on an act. She snorted softly, but she didn’t seem angry. She looked as exquisite as ever.
She cut to the chase and got straight to her point.
“The inheritance my father left for me and my children belong to us. I’m not letting it go into someone else’s pocket.”
Su Xiaonai’s voice was loud enough to attract some attention. Wang Shenglan bit her lower lip tightly.
She glared at Su Xiaonai. She wasn’t going to give up so much inheritance so easily.
Wang Shenglan’s eyes darted as a thought popped into her head. She had gotten rid of Su Xiaonai once; she would do it again the same way.
“Xiaonai, how can you be so shameless to come for the inheritance?”
“Wasn’t it you that caused the Master’s death back then? You should be grateful that we didn’t hold it against you, so why are you still so greedy?”
The socialites around them began to whisper among themselves, making slanted comments on Su Xiaonai based on the words of Wang Shenglan.
Su Xiaonai couldn’t help but roll her eyes. She hadn’t expected Wang Shenglan to still be this adept at distorting the truth.
But Su Xiaonai was prepared for this. She gave Su Mubei a look, and he immediately took out a cell phone from his backpack.
He handed it to Su Xiaonai, who found a recording and pressed “play”.
It was the voice of a man, characteristic enough to be easily identified. It belonged to Su Jinhao, the former head of the Su Corporation who had passed away.
He was also the father of Su Xiaonai, the husband of Wang Shenglan.
The recording was still playing, and the man’s voice was weak. It was probably recorded in the later stages of his illness, and he was saying his last words.
“Xiaonai, I’ve set aside some assets for you. Be careful of Wang Shenglan, she’s got some ulterior motives. My silly girl, don’t confront her directly. I’ve already made arrangements for you to leave the country.”
The atmosphere in the room changed in an instant. Those who were commenting on Su Xiaonai looked as if they were slapped in the face.
Wang Shenglan’s expression was stiff. Unconsciously she clenched her fists, which were hanging by her sides.
She had become the center of attention. Su Mubei, who had been silent the whole time, couldn’t help but speak up.
He pointed at Wang Shenglan.
“This auntie is evil!”
Su Mubai nodded repeatedly and spat.
“Boo!”
Su Mubai was not as calm as her brother; she had worked out the whole story in her little mind.
Her spit came from her sincere feelings.
Wang Shenglan was unwilling to face the questioning eyes. Besides, her in-laws couldn’t afford to lose face like this.
Wang Shenglan thought long before opening her mouth to announce.
“My apologies, but the wedding will be postponed.”
A woman, who was lifting the hem of her dress, appeared in the crowds. It was Wang Shenglan’s daughter, Su Jiaojiao, the bride.
Hearing her mother postpone the wedding, Su Jiaojiao widened her eyes as she pushed the person in front of her away.
“Mom, what are you talking about?!”
Wang Shenglan shook her head at Su Jiaojiao and gave her an angry look, telling her not to stir up trouble; otherwise, she’d be the one paying the price.
Su Jiaojiao pursed her lips tightly. She felt indignant, but she had no choice. Since her mother had said so, she had to let it go.
Seeing this, Su Xiaonai felt some satisfaction. But she wasn’t letting them off the hook. After all, compared to what they had done to her in the past—
This was nothing.
Su Xiaonai looked at the two of them scornfully and said,
“I want to take back the real estate that is my stepsister’s dowry, so that I can have a place to live.”
Before Wang Shenglan could react, Su Jiaojiao, who was beside her, became furious. She took a few quick steps and tried to attack Su Xiaonai.
Quickly pushing the two children away, Su Xiaonai nimbly grabbed Su Jiaojiao’s wrist and flipped it over to her back, pinning her to the ground and subduing her in one move.
A few strands of her hair hung down from her temples. With a disdainful chuckle aimed at Su Jiaojiao, she got up and left the scene with the two children. She had left all her words there.
It was impossible for Wang Shenglan not to take any action. If she didn’t, she would be in trouble.
Su Jiaojiao sat up and tidied her messy hair. She looked around timidly, her resentment towards Su Xiaonai surged.
If it weren’t for Su Xiaonai, she wouldn’t have embarrassed herself in front of the whole high society. Damn it, Su Xiaonai, just you wait!
Wang Shenglan felt sorry for Su Jiaojiao. After all, it was her daughter, and hence almost a part of her.
Who wouldn’t feel sorry for their own family?
Wang Shenglan walked over to Su Jiaojiao, pulled her up from the ground, and led her out of the crowd.
Among the spectators was Qi Lingyan, who had watched the whole scene play out coolly. Interested, he turned on his phone.
He called a subordinate and sent him to follow Su Xiaonai..
