Chapter 44 - Gaining Sympathy (2)

Su Xiaofei then carefully and slowly narrated what had just happened before the two men arrived at their humble abode and how those two women they\'d seen leaving the estate earlier were Su Haoran\'s former lover and his daughter.

The two men didn\'t interrupt her nor asked her any questions. They only listened to what she was saying intently. Su Xiaofei wasn\'t sure how Master Ouyang would react to it, but seeing Yun Xiang eagerness to help her and her mother, surely this news would reach Old Master Yun\'s ears.

Old Master Yun was already in his late seventies and his health wasn\'t as good as it used to be. In the past, Su Xiaofei heard that he passed away just a month after her mother\'s death and people assumed that he died from a broken heart after finding out that his only daughter had died in an accident without having a chance to mend their relationship as father and daughter.

"Their sudden visit wasn\'t expected at all. Mama and I had no idea that they would come today and beg my Mama to allow my new Jiejie to live with us. I couldn\'t stop myself and said hurtful words towards them and chased them out once Mama\'s hypertension started acting up. I know I shouldn\'t have done it but…"

"It\'s normal to feel agitated during those circumstances, Xiao Fei, but it would be better if you can control your emotions. Words could easily be said, but it would be hard to take it back once you realize you didn\'t mean it." Yun Xiang commented. He regretted that he and Master Ouyang hadn\'t arrived sooner so his aunt and Su Xiaofei would be spared such an encounter.

Alas, nothing could be done now. The only bright side he could see was that his Aunty Qing and Xiao Fei were now aware of the existence of a mistress and the other daughter of Su Haoran.

Yun Xiang knew that his elders, especially his grandfather, wouldn\'t be pleased if they heard that his Aunty Qing and Su Xiaofei were being treated unfairly like this. While it\'s true that his grandfather and Aunty Qing were not on speaking terms, Yun Xiang was fully aware that his grandfather terribly missed her.

"Child, Xiao Xiang is right. What you did back there wasn\'t good, but I don\'t blame you for reacting that way. You felt like your mother was being bullied by those outsiders, and you felt this sense of urgency to protect her. In the future, you better keep your head cool and don\'t argue unnecessarily with those kinds of people." Master Ouyang shared his thoughts.

"I thank you for listening to me, Master Ouyang, Brother Xiang. I feel a little better now." Su Xiaofei gave them a polite bow. "I suppose I should also talk to Mama and apologize for my unsightly attitude earlier."

"That\'s not a bad idea. Aunty Qing needs you now more than ever, Xiao Fei. Both of you should stay strong for each other\'s sake."

"I\'ll keep it in mind, Brother Xiang."

After another hour of conversation with Su Xiaofei, the two left when the sun was about to set. Su Xiaofei sent them off outside, her expression way better than what they had seen when they arrived earlier.

"I didn\'t even notice that it\'s getting late now. Xiao Fei, please give our regards to your mother. I hope we\'ll get to see her on our next visit."

"I will, Master Ouyang and thank you for bringing the medicines I needed." Su Xiaofei replied.

"That\'s because I heard you haven\'t dropped by to see Han Zijun yet."

"I\'m planning to see him this coming weekend with Mama before my classes resume, but I guess she would want to stay at home for the meantime and focus on work." She said with a solemn voice, which effectively earned their sympathy.

"Don\'t worry too much. The problem will pass before you know it." Yun Xiang patted her shoulder before entering the car with Master Ouyang.

Su Xiaofei stayed and watched the car leaving their estate, feeling satisfied with the result of her meeting Ye Mingyu and her mother today. She was also able to evoke sympathy from Master Ouyang and Yun Xiang.

As for her mother, she should work harder to sow discord between her and Su Haoran for their own sake. Su Xiaofei was certain that Ye Mingyu and her mother wouldn\'t easily accept defeat and would come back to cause them more trouble.

When Master Ouyang and Yun Xiang arrived at the Yun Estate, an hour away from Qiying City where Su Xiaofei and Yun Qingrong resided, they found Old Master Yun waiting for them in the living area.

As a man who came from a long military lineage, Yun Guanyu, despite his old age, had an imposing aura that made people around him unable to question his authority. Once he caught sight of Yun Xiang, his expression hardened, knowing that the young man had just returned from visiting his estranged daughter whom he hadn\'t seen nor talked to in years.

"I suppose you met that girl personally this time?" He directly asked Master Ouyang, who had taken a seat across from him while Yun Xiang excused himself, knowing his grandfather wanted to be left alone with Master Ouyang.

Master Ouyang hummed and poured himself a cup of freshly brewed tea.

"We came just in time to witness a drama. It seems like your daughter will be returning home soon."

Yun Guanyu scoffed and looked away. He knew that Su Haoran wasn\'t a good match for his daughter and as to what his Qing\'er saw in that excuse of a man, he didn\'t want to think anymore.

"You have a very intriguing granddaughter, though. Although she isn\'t Qing\'er\'s real daughter, her personality is totally different from how the rumors perceived her to be." Master Ouyang gloated.

"Oh? How so?"

"Where can you find a young woman who can chase a mistress away?"
