Chapter 691: Chapter 691: Didn’t Benefit

"Sangsang, Sangsang, where are you? Second Uncle is here to see you."

"Grandma, Second Uncle is here."

In the parlor, Ya Molian and Lin Caisang were having a conversation with Lu Qiubo when they heard the voice that echoed from the courtyard, dominating over everyone else’s.

"This wretched scoundrel, is he honestly my son? Does he think I’m incapable of disciplining him?" Lu Qiubo heard Liu Baixiao’s voice and was furious. She immediately stood up from her chair.

"He thinks I am his father, huh. Well, I’m not as soft-hearted!"

Taking a few steps towards the parlor’s door, Lu Qiubo looked back upon seeing Ya Molian and her granddaughter following her.

"Molian, stay here with Sangsang. That scoundrel will be dealt with by Grandma Qiubo."

Tomorrow would be the day of her granddaughter and Molian’s engagement. It wouldn’t be appropriate for Ya Molian to confront Liu Baixiao, a nuisance, at this time. Therefore, he better not step out.

"All...right."

Ya Molian nodded and took Lin Caisang’s hand, stopping her in her tracks.

"Brother Molian..."

Lin Caisang gazed worryingly at Ya Molian as her grandmother ventured outside.

Liu Baixiao was shameless. For his own gain, he could cast away anything, including his dignity. At a time like this, could her grandmother handle him alone?

She had every reason to worry!

"Let’s see."

Ya Molian tersely replied.

Liu Baixiao was a rogue and a bully, but there were many people in the courtyard. Lu Qiubo wouldn’t be at a disadvantage.

On the contrary, allowing Lu Qiubo to berate Liu Baixiao could make everyone aware of his true character. Once the word spread throughout the village, even if Lin Laogeng wished to lend a helping hand to his son, he would have to consider Lu Qiubo’s stance and the opinion of the villagers in Ya Village.

"Your grandfather is too soft-hearted."

Hearing Ya Molian’s words, Lin Caisang fell silent.

Indeed, her grandfather’s nature was too gentle, practically without a firm standpoint.

Or perhaps he would reprimand Liu Baixiao one day and cut him off completely, only to forget about the previous day’s grudges after a good night’s sleep and think of his son as redeemable, intending to help him once again.

"Sigh."

She heaved a deep sigh.

As for Liu Baixiao, she really didn’t know what to do. Although he was shameless and a rascal;

He hadn’t committed any grave sins. Just a little crooked in his thoughts, a bit cunning with minor ulterior motives. Or maybe, he only dared to flex his muscles within his comfort zone. In front of someone more powerful, he would become a complete coward.

A person like this was like a ball of cotton wool – she couldn’t be harsh with him, yet his presence irked her.

"If he doesn’t get what he wants today, he is likely to return tomorrow," she candidly admitted to Ya Molian.

"Do you think I will let him come over to my place tomorrow?" Ya Molian snorted lightly, patting her head to reassure her.

"Then, you handle it," Lin Caisang softly said.

In fact, she thought the same. If Liu Baixiao wanted to come over tomorrow, let him crawl over!

...

In the courtyard, Liu Baixiao saw Lu Qiubo emerging from the parlor. Her expression was stern, but he thought, she was still his birth mother. She wouldn’t leave him with no face to show. Besides, the members of the Ya Clan were watching. After all, he was Lin Caisang’s Second Uncle and represented the face of the Lin Family.
