Chapter 147: 147 Throwing the Blame
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
When Old Master Fu saw that Fu Hang had returned, he narrowed his eyes to hide the displeasure in them. He questioned, “Why are you back?”
He had long treated Fu Hang as an outsider. Therefore, he did not even think about bringing him along when Shen Yan invited them for a meal.
Fu Hang walked in from outside. His gaze fell on Fu Xiaoxiao, who was kneeling on the ground. He asked in puzzlement, “Grandpa, what happened?”!!
Old Master Fu explained the matter of Fu Xiaoxiao being the one behind Shen Yan’s scandals briefly. Then, he glanced at her in disappointment.
He would not have to worry about Fu Xiaoxiao for the rest of his life if she was as smart as Fu Hang.
Fu Xiaoxiao’s eyes lit up instantly when she saw Fu Hang. She stood up immediately and ran to Fu Hang’s side. She stammered, “Second brother, you came at the right time. Hurry up and save me! Grandpa is going to punish me!”
“Get back on your knees!” Old Master Fu bellowed.
Fu Xiaoxiao shivered in fear. Her legs went weak, and she knelt back again. However, she stared at Fu Hang as if she was begging for help.
Old Master Fu had made up his mind to discipline Fu Xiaoxiao properly. Therefore, he said, “A Hang, don’t say anything if you want to plead mercy for Xiaoxiao. I will definitely punish her today!”
Fu Hang nodded and stood to the side with a blank face.
“Second brother, I’m your biological sister. You can’t just watch me get punished and not save me!” Fu Xiaoxiao looked at him aggrievedly. She continued speaking, seeing that there was no reaction from Fu Hang. “Second brother, I did those things for you! Everyone else said that Shen Yan had betrayed you. I got so angry that I wanted to teach Shen Yan a lesson!”
Seeing that Fu Hang had a reaction, Fu Xiaoxiao added, “Shen Yan has already gotten together with Lu Yan! She has betrayed you and the Fu family!”
Fu Hang’s expression turned even colder. He lowered his head and looked at her.
At this moment, Fu Xiaoxiao was crying tearfully. The makeup on her face was ruined, and she was in a sorry state.
“Is that so?” Fu Hang asked rhetorically.
Fu Xiaoxiao clung onto Fu Hang like he was her last hope. She nodded her head in a hurry. “Second brother, I was just trying to avenge you!”
“You only did it for your own selfish interests!” Fu Hang withdrew his gaze from her face indifferently. He stood at the side, seemingly watching the show.
Fu Xiaoxiao realized that Fu Hang was not willing to help her plead for mercy, so she could only beg for mercy from Old Master Fu. Deep down, she was hoping that Su Xiu would hurry home.
“Grandfather, I really know my mistake. I’ll never lay my hands on Shen Yan again. Can you please don’t punish me?” She lifted her eyes and looked at Old Master Fu with a pleading face.
Hearing Fu Xiaoxiao’s words, Old Master Fu’s heart softened.
This was his granddaughter, whom he had doted on since young.
In fact, he was also reluctant to punish her, but he had to do it now.
Old Master Fu had decided to put all the hopes of the Fu family on Fu Xiaoxiao. Therefore, he must ensure that Fu Xiaoxiao could become someone who could bear the responsibility of the family.
“Kneel for an hour…”
Fu Xiaoxiao’s eyes lit up gradually. The corners of her mouth curled up involuntarily, as she nodded hard.
“Grandfather,” Fu Hang interrupted.
Old Master Fu looked at him in confusion, with a bad premonition in his heart.
At this moment, Fu Xiaoxiao still did not know what was about to happen. She looked at Fu Hang with a face full of anticipation, thinking that he was going to plead for her.
Fu Hang looked at Old Master Fu with a gloomy face. Back then, Shen Yan was punished to kneel for an entire night. Why did Fu Xiaoxiao only need to kneel for an hour after making such a big mistake?
“Grandfather, are you going to continue to dote on Xiaoxiao?” A cold aura emanated from Fu Hang’s body. He looked at Old Master Fu and said, “Are you trying to let Xiaoxiao destroy the entire Fu Family?”
Fu Xiaoxiao was shocked upon hearing his words, and she blurted out, “Second brother, what are you talking about?! I didn’t do anything wrong! It was all because of Shen Yan…”
