Chapter 208: Leaving the Xiao Family

Translator: Henyee Translations      Editor: Henyee Translations

Seeing that the father and son were glaring at each other, Second Uncle quickly stood up and said, “The child is still here. The two of you can’t quarrel anymore.”

Yunbao stood beside Gu Teng very calmly. Compared to her life before she returned to the Gu family, the quarrel between Xiao Jing and Xiao Shan was nothing. Yunbao was not afraid at all.

Third Uncle even asked Gu Teng for help. “Niece, persuade Xiao Jing too.”

Gu Teng was unmoved. “I won’t persuade Xiao Jing. He can settle the matter between father and son himself. I will support his decision.”

Third Uncle really did not expect Gu Teng to answer like this. Under normal circumstances, she should have reconciled their father-son relationship. Previously, Chen Yue had done this. Why did Gu Teng not participate?

Yunbao nodded and said, “I support Dad.”

Third Uncle was confused when he heard the child say the same thing. Could this be the reason why Xiao Jing liked Gu Teng?

Xiao Jing did not want to argue with Xiao Shan anymore. He turned around and was about to leave with Gu Teng and Yunbao. If the family of three returned to the capital to live, these things would not happen.

However, Xiao Shan would never allow them to leave. He shouted, “If you dare to leave, I’ll go to the capital and spread the news that Gu Teng eloped with you.”

Xiao Jing did not expect Xiao Shan to be so shameless. He clenched his fists and tried his best to suppress his anger, but flames still rose from his body.

Xiao Shan was not afraid at all. In his opinion, Xiao Jing was his son. It was impossible for him to really hurt him.

Xiao Shan said proudly, “After all, Yunbao is my biological granddaughter. I dote on her too, but she has to give up all her spells and definitely can’t learn them in the future. Otherwise, I won’t admit that she’s my granddaughter.”

Hearing such shameless words, even Purple Eye could not help but say in Yunbao’s ear, “Who does he think he is? Will there be consequences if he doesn’t admit it? At most, you won’t call him Grandpa anymore.”

Purple Eye only mentioned it, but Yunbao remembered it. She thought that this was a way to resolve the quarrel between her father and grandfather. She smiled and said, “Then Yunbao won’t call you Grandpa anymore This way, I can continue to learn spells.”

This sentence silenced the entire place. Everyone looked at Yunbao in surprise. They did not expect her to say such a thing.

Xiao Shan’s face was about to turn purple from anger. He pointed at Yunbao and said, “This is your upbringing. Didn’t your mother teach you to be filial to your elders?”

Gu Teng reached out and protected Yunbao in her arms. “Everyone who has seen Yunbao says that she knows how to be polite. You were the one who said that you didn’t acknowledge Yunbao as your granddaughter just now.”

After being contradicted time and time again, Xiao Shan completely lost his mind. He turned to look at Xiao Jing and said, “This is the daughter-in-law you married into the family. She actually dares to talk back to her elders. Why don’t you think about how you entered the family? She eloped with you and gave birth to a child with you. That’s why I had no choice but to acknowledge this daughter-in-law. You can’t even stand straight and still dare to talk to me like this.”

Tears welled up in Gu Teng’s eyes. She thought that this matter would be over after the wedding. She did not expect that in Xiao Shan’s eyes, she was still the shameless woman who had eloped.

But loving each other was their own business. When she was with Xiao Jing, she was single. She didn’t feel that she had done anything wrong. Why did everyone only judge her with old ideas?

Xiao Jing stood in front of his wife and daughter and faced Xiao Shan. “I was the one who pursued Gu Teng and wanted to marry her. There’s no such thing as elopement. It’s all your imagination. If you don’t want to acknowledge Gu

Teng as your daughter-in-law, I won’t acknowledge you as my father!”

Second Uncle and Third Uncle did not expect things to develop to this extent. They did not want Xiao Jing to fall out with the Xiao family. The children of the Xiao family in this generation were not promising. Only Xiao Jing was very talented in business.

If Xiao Jing left the Xiao family, the dividends they would receive in the future would definitely decrease. The two of them quickly went forward to persuade him, but they were just trying to persuade Xiao Shan not to continue being angry.

Xiao Jing didn’t have the patience to wait any longer. The family of three went out to leave, but Xiao Shan chased after them and said, “If you leave, don’t come back. Don’t be my son in the future.”

Xiao Shan thought that this could threaten Xiao Jing, but he only looked over indifferently and said, “That’s exactly what I want.”

With that, Xiao Jing left. Second Uncle and Third Uncle stomped their feet anxiously and rushed forward to argue with Xiao Shan..
