Chapter 27: Torn

The old lady was wearing a high-end retro button-down shirt, her gray hair was neatly tied up and a hairpin inlaid with rubies was inserted in it.

She adjusted the gold-rimmed reading glasses on her nose, and glanced at Yu Shuran with eyes that were filled with the sediment of time.

Yu Shuran's heart trembled, and his voice and momentum immediately softened.

"mom."

This is the old lady of the Yu family, Yu Beiting’s grandmother.

Shen Qinghuan looked at Old Madam Yu with mixed feelings.

If there was anyone in the Yu family that she was concerned about, it was Old Madam Yu.

Because he is the only elder in the Yu family who loves her.

Old Lady Yu walked straight up to Old Lady Shen and expressed her concerns.

"How is your old man doing lately? Is he feeling better?"

Mr. Yu and Mr. Shen were once comrades-in-arms. Mr. Shen retired because his hind leg was injured while trying to save Mr. Yu.

Communications were not well developed at that time, and Mr. Shen took his family to another province, and the two families lost contact afterwards.

It was not until eight years ago that Mrs. Yu found the Shen family, but by then Mr. Yu was no longer around. Mrs. Yu was still grateful to Mr. Shen for saving her husband's life, so she brought up the marriage that had been agreed upon that year.

At that time, she fell in love with the beautiful Shen Qinghuan at first sight.

Old Mrs. Shen: "Much better. Please come and visit me."

Old Madam Yu could see that Old Madam Shen was not very happy.

Yes, no one would be happy if they encountered someone causing trouble.

Old Madam Yu looked at Shen Qinghuan, but her gaze only stayed for two seconds before moving away and glaring at Yu Shuran.

"Who did you just say you were going to give one last chance to? What did you want to sign?"

Yu Shuran didn't expect her mother to come. She was probably aware of what Zhiyan had done.

"Mom, Zhiyan is still so young, how can she bear it? I just asked Shen Qinghuan to sign the settlement agreement so that Zhiyan can get out earlier."

"So you made a scene in the hospital? No wonder Zhiyan is so ignorant, because she has a mother like you who has no morals."

Old Madam Yu became venomous and didn't care at all whether this was her own daughter or not.

"Zhi Yan is your beloved granddaughter, how can you bear to let her suffer?" Yu Shuran was very dissatisfied. How could she be so immoral?

It's obviously Shen Qinghuan who has no morals!

Why is it that whenever something happens to Shen Qinghuan, the old mother always stands on Shen Qinghuan's side?

Old Madam Yu sneered: "It seems that I am still too good to you and your daughter. Bei Ting, bring the settlement letter here."

Yu Beiting walked over and picked up the settlement agreement.

"Mom, what are you doing?" Yu Shuran wanted to stop her and held on to the settlement agreement.

Yu Beiting: "Aunt, you'd better let go."

Facing his nephew's cold eyes, Yu Shuran was still a little scared and let go.

Yu Beiting took the settlement agreement to his grandmother.

Old Lady Yu tore it to pieces.

"Mom!" Yu Shuran wanted to rush up to stop her, but was stopped by Yu Beiting.

Old Mrs. Yu threw the scraps of paper into the trash can.

"Go back and reflect on your actions. If you dare to bring people to the hospital to cause trouble again, don't mention your last name Yu anymore."

The old lady's words were already very serious. Yu Shuran was stunned. Mother, how could you not give her face in front of outsiders like this?

Yu Beiting gave Aunt Wu a look.

Aunt Wu stepped forward and said, "Miss, let's go. The old lady has just recovered from her illness. Don't make her angry anymore."

Aunt Wu is an old lady who has been taking care of Old Madam Yu for more than 20 years. Before Yu Shuran got married, she called her "Miss". Now that Yu Shuran got married and divorced, she changed her name to "Miss Gu."

Yu Shuran left unwillingly, and glared at Shen Qinghuan fiercely before leaving.

She won't let Shen Qinghuan go so easily!

Shen Qinghuan stood there straight, his eyes determined and fearless.

Yu Beiting raised his hand, and all the bodyguards went out.

He originally didn't want to alarm his grandmother about this matter. When he asked Lin Yi to keep an eye on Shen Qinghuan's actions, he found that his aunt had taken someone to the hospital.

Mr. Shen’s illness was already serious, how could he withstand such a fuss from his aunt?

Just as his grandmother asked about Mr. Shen's illness, he told her about it.

Du Youjie poured a cup of tea and brought it to Old Madam Yu in a flattering manner.

"Old lady, please have a cup of tea to cool down."

She was also very unhappy. How could Shen Qinghuan be so lucky that Old Madam Yu came to visit her just in time?

"No." Old Lady Yu said bluntly: "I'm afraid you'll poison me."

Du Youjie: ...

"Old lady, you really love to joke. How dare I? I'm not Shen Qinghuan..."

"What happened to Qinghuan? Did Qinghuan poison you?"

Du Youjie said weakly: "No."

"This is none of your business, go out." Old Lady Yu waved her hand and drove Du Youjie out of the ward.

Du Youjie felt very uncomfortable. She thought that if she didn't go out, she would be choked to death.

Just wait, you old woman. When her daughter Wan Ning marries into the Yu family and becomes the mistress of the Yu family, you will be in for a lot of trouble.

All the annoying people left, and Old Lady Yu immediately came over with a smile, took Shen Qinghuan's hand, and sat down on the sofa.

The old lady scolded: "You didn't even call grandma after returning home."

"Grandma, I'm sorry, I'm...too busy."

Shen Qinghuan felt a little guilty because no matter how busy she was, she never thought of going to the Yu family to visit Grandma Yu.

She thought that with her leaving without saying goodbye that year, Grandma Yu's love for her would also disappear. She thought Grandma Yu would be very disappointed in her. She didn't dare to face Grandma Yu, and didn't want to go to the Yu family again.

"Okay, the past is in the past. Let's not mention it anymore, and you don't need to think about it anymore. I will still be your grandmother from now on." Old Lady Yu saw Shen Qinghuan's guilt, and she patted her hands in pain.

This child had been through so much, it was not easy for him to persevere to that point.

She understood her choice to go abroad and supported her.

But she really shouldn't have kept it to herself.

Shen Qinghuan nodded obediently. Grandma Yu was still so nice.

"Come have dinner with me, an old woman, tonight."

Shen Qinghuan was a little hesitant when he heard this.

"Why, is there something wrong? Forget it then."

Seeing the disappointment in Old Madam Yu's eyes, Shen Qinghuan couldn't bear to refuse.

"It's nothing. I'll go eat with you."

Old Madam Yu was smiling happily, but when she turned to look at Yu Beiting, her smile suddenly disappeared and she said unhappily, "Go and book a restaurant for me. I want Qinghuan to like the food."

Yu Beiting had a blank expression on his face. He didn't want his grandmother to have any contact with Shen Qinghuan anymore, but with his grandmother's temper, he was afraid he couldn't stop her.

"Why are you still standing there? I can't order you, the big boss, around anymore?"

Yu Beiting: ...

Yu Beiting gave Lin Yi a look and Lin Yi went out.

Old Madam Yu got up and went into the ward to see Old Man Shen.

Ten minutes later, Old Lady Yu came out holding Shen Qinghuan's hand.

Shen Qinghuan originally wanted to say that she could drive to the restaurant, but the old lady just held her tightly and pulled her directly into the Yu family's car.
