Su Fengfei was playing with Ge Guiren as usual. Su Fengfei gave a smile when he saw his grandson enter the room but he was surprised when he saw that girl behind him.

  Ge Guiren saw his friend’s reaction. He turned his face to look who came. Seeing two familiar faces, his expression changed. He frowned and asked, "What’s going on?"

  Xue Lin got nervous. She thought Ge Guiren was Ge Chen’s maternal grandfather. She heard and saw many in-laws never supported the brides who weren’t valued for their selfish greed. They even tortured the brides and finally separated them from their husbands. Xue Lin wished that her life wouldn’t turn up like that.

  She hesitated and tried to let go of Ge Chen’s hand but his grasp was firm. He didn’t let her hand go. Rather, his thumb occasionally rubbed the back of her hand to comfort her. Suddenly, her body relaxed and she composed herself. She couldn’t believe that a simple touch could make her assure like that.

  Ge Chen calmly said, "She is my wife, Xue Lin. We married yesterday."

  Su Fengfei’s expression also changed. He knew from the start that his grandson was acting strangely after seeing the footage that day. Ge Chen never talked back to Ge Guiren but because of her, he did that too. Now, Su Fengfei understood what was the reason. He opened his mouth to say something but his friend spoke first.

  Ge Guiren retorted, "What is the meaning of this?"

  Xue Lin flinched. She couldn’t look straight. She didn’t want Ge Chen to break apart from the people who raised him.

  However, Ge Chen’s expression didn’t change. He calmly asked, "What do you mean?"

  Ge Guiren was frustrated. He was so angry and he was at a loss of words. "Wh-what do I mean? You-"

  "Now, now, you shouldn’t behave like this in front of a new member of my family." Su Fengfei stood and came closer. He smiled in a friendly manner and told her, "You are the famous Xue Lin of Fa Family I’ve been hearing. Truthfully speaking, I’ve become a fan of yours since the day you met the members of the Ge Family. I’ve been wanting to meet you but my grandson beat me to it. I’m Su Fengfei, Xiao Chen’s maternal grandfather. It’s a pleasure to meet you."

  Xue Lin was surprised at first. She took a glance at Ge Guiren who was seething in anger and then her eyes landed on Su Fengfei. "I’m Xue Lin. It’s an honor to meet you." she bowed. "You have raised a wonderful grandson. I’m grateful to have him in my life. Please give us your blessing."

  Su Fengfei didn’t think that she would be polite to him after what she did to her own father in front of so many people. Realizing that he judged a book by its cover, he coughed to hide his embarrassment. "My blessing will always be with you. Unfortunately, my wife isn’t here. She would be happy to see Xiao Chen finally settled down."

  Xue Lin was secretly relieved. She wasn’t sure what she would do if that other old man was her husband’s maternal grandfather. Since Su Fengfei accepted her, she had nothing to worry about.

  Ge Guiren stood up in anger startling Xue Lin. "I won’t accept. Xiao Chen! How dare you defy my orders? Didn’t I tell you that you were supposed to marry the girl I chose?"

  Ge Chen ignored his bickering and introduced him to Xue Lin. "He is Ge Guiren, the one who arranged your marriage with that scoundrel."

  "What!" Ge Guiren slammed the table. He noticed that his grandson didn’t introduce him as his grandfather and also called his only stepbrother a scoundrel.

  Xue Lin was stunned before her facial expression completely changed. The person who forced her to come back, the cause of her cell phone, credit card and passport got destroyed, the reason why she had no home, the cause why her whole plan went upside down, the reason why she had to get married, was standing right in front of her.

  "You……" her tone was low and was carrying a bloodlust. Her eyes looked like she would slaughter Ge Guiren. Her blood began to boil. Her anger started to rise.

  Ge Guiren felt intimidated by the way she was looking at him. No one, whether older or younger, ever looked at him like that. His father was strict but he also never looked at him with so much hatred. He could tell that she was angry because his decision disturbed her peaceful life, he was upset that she didn’t give him proper respect as she did it to Su Fengfei. He thought that not only did she lack manners, but she also didn’t know how to respect elders.

  He snapped at her, "You girl! Why are you gaping at me like that? Don’t you know manners? Didn’t your parents teach you anything? No wonder street girls like you-"

  He wasn’t able to finish it before Xue Lin pounced on him.
