Chapter 306 — Parting on Bad Terms
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
"Hmph! Uncle, I only meant well for you. Since you will not listen, forget it. From now on I will not trouble you again!" Wu Chengtian's stubborn young-master temper flared at once. He was the most promising of the Wu family's younger generation, the one with the best hope of cultivating the Iron Hand skill to the Xuan rank, and so he was respected everywhere within the clan. When had anyone ever made him lose face like this?
"Xiaotian! Stop this nonsense! Apologize to your uncle at once!" Wu Huiru grew anxious and hurriedly tugged at Wu Chengtian's hand.
"Apologize? Hmph!" Wu Chengtian gave a cold laugh. "Aunt, since Uncle looks down on our Wu family entirely, then forget it. Will you come back to the Wu family with me, or stay here?"
"Xiaotian, stop making a scene!" Wu Huiru had not expected Wu Chengtian to be so furious.
"Fine, Aunt. Since you are already a Liu now, I will not force you!" A flash of resolve crossed Wu Chengtian's eyes. "Stop the car. I am getting out!"
Liu Tianyi had no intention of indulging Wu Chengtian and pulled the car straight over to the roadside with a cold laugh. Since the Wu boy knew so little of what was good for him, he could not blame his uncle for showing no mercy! Other matters might still be negotiable, but now that his own father's illness was involved, he would show Wu Chengtian no kindness at all!
The Wu family, hmph. Even as a Wu, he was only a junior, yet he dared to be so arrogant before him. Liu Tianyi was already burning with rage. "Wu Huiru, will you go back with him too?"
"I... I of course will not join Xiaotian in his folly..." Wu Huiru sighed helplessly. She knew that from this day on, a rift was bound to open between the Wu family and the Liu family. But since she was now a daughter-in-law of the Liu family, she had to stand with the Lius. That was the very root of being a wife. If she made a scene alongside the Wu family, she would only be laughed at.
She wanted to mediate, but she did not know how. It was only natural for Wu Chengtian to be angry. As it happened, Wei Zhao was Sun Jingyan's boyfriend, and on that ground alone Wu Chengtian would never give him a pleasant look! Yet Wei Zhao was also the man who could save her father-in-law. This was truly not easy to smooth over...
"Huiru, get out and see him off. After all, he is your nephew." Liu Zhenhu, who had not spoken until now, finally spoke. He did not wish to comment on Wu family affairs. As head of the Liu family, he could not interfere in another family's business.
How the younger kin of the Wu family behaved was for the Wu family to manage. It was not for outsiders to gossip about.
"Yes, Father!" Wu Huiru nodded and saw Wu Chengtian out of the car. After walking a few steps, she lowered her voice. "Xiaotian, do not act rashly. That Wei Zhao truly has remarkable medical skill!"
"Aunt, are you taking his side too?" Wu Chengtian snorted with displeasure.
"If you want to deal with him, at least wait until he has cured my father-in-law's illness. To tell the truth, I am also annoyed by his outrageous demand. If you can get that hundred million back for me afterward, I am sure your uncle would be glad to see it!" Wu Huiru said in a low voice.
"Aunt, with those words from you, that is enough!" Wu Chengtian was overjoyed. Curing the illness would take only a few days. Afterward, when he went after Wei Zhao, as long as the Liu family did not interfere, it would in his eyes be a piece of cake.
