Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The atmosphere among the An family members changed instantly. This blatant favoritism had reached a point they couldn’t accept.
“Father, even if you’re biased, it shouldn’t be to this extent!”
“So what if I’m biased? You don’t even care about my granddaughter, but I do. Is there a problem?”
While his voice lacked strength due to his physical weakness, his determination was undiminished.
“I’m telling you all, from now on, you better not bother my granddaughter anymore. All my shares and assets will be left to her. I’d like to see who dares to underestimate her. I, An Kangpeng, want to protect. If you cross her, be prepared to regret it!”
“Father! Can you stop being so foolish?”
An Yaoqing admitted that he was biased when it came to dealing with Nan Yan.
He preferred the sensible and outstanding An Muyao over the incompetent Nan Yan who only knew how to stir up trouble.
But was that really wrong?
Who doesn’t prefer a more accomplished child?
He hadn’t treated her poorly after she came back. He arranged for her to attend Zhide High School by spending money and pulling strings. In his view, he had done well enough.
Wasn’t it her own lack of progress that caused them not to like her?
“Am I foolish, or are you?” Old Master An sneered, “You even managed to lose your own biological daughter. After finding her, you don’t know how to make amends. When you’ve lost her completely, then you can regret it.’
With that, he couldn’t be bothered to deal with them anymore and turned to
Nan Yan in a gentler tone, “Yan Yan, don’t pay them any attention. Let’s go.”
An YaoQing gritted his teeth, his gaze fixed on Nan Yan. In front of Old Master An, he didn’t dare show anger and tried to speak calmly, “Yan Yan, there’s something I need to tell you.”
Nan Yan had no intention of giving him face. Her defiant expression carried a cold undertone, “I have nothing to say to you.”
“One last time, you’d better not come to bother me anymore.”
An Family members:
Hearing Nan Yan’s emotionless words, Old Master An’s expression turned even more profound.
She had been hurt to the point where she didn’t want to acknowledge them at all!
Well, if Nan Yan really didn’t plan on forgiving them, then so be it.
They had made mistakes, and they didn’t have the right to ask for her forgiveness.
Nan Yan pushed Old Master An’s wheelchair, calmly passing by them on the way to the elevator.
Before long, the elevator arrived.
When the doors opened, a woman was inside, wrapped up tightly.
Initially, no one recognized her. It was only when An Muyao stepped out of the elevator and knelt in front of Old Master An that they realized her identity.
“Grandfather, I really know I was wrong. I’m sorry for what I did to Nan Yan. I was scared that Nan Yan’s return would lead to my being sent away. My parents wouldn’t love me anymore. That’s why I did those despicable things. I truly know I was wrong. I beg you, please give me another chance. Don’t send me away…”
“Grandfather, I was really afraid. I didn’t want to leave my parents, you, or An Family… It was jealousy that blinded me. I made mistakes. I’m willing to accept punishment. I’m only asking you not to drive me away…”
An Muyao wept, her tear-streaked face pale, her eyes swollen. She deliberately exposed the wrist bound with bandages and bowed repeatedly to Old Master
Watching her, Lu Lehua’s heart ached. He struggled to speak and broke free from An Yaoqing’s grip, coming forward to speak on An Muyao’s behalf.
“She’s done wrong, but even murderers have a chance to reform. Can’t you be a bit forgiving and give her a chance to change for the better?”
Nan Yan’s eyes carried a touch of scorn. “No.”
She licked her lips, her voice tinged with disdain, “Crying a few tears, shedding some blood, and she thinks she deserves forgiveness? Why?”
“If she truly regrets it, if she really wants to apologize to me, then let her go to the Nan Hongyang family, experience the same hardships I did for sixteen years, and then we’ll talk.”
“Oh, that’s the life she should have lived, while I was the one who bore all that.
She took over the life that should have been mine, and she wanted to ruin my life. I’m not a saint reincarnate; I can’t forgive her.”
An Muyao clenched her hand, her heart filled with hatred and resentment, nearly spilling out.
If onlv she hadn’t been soft back then. if onlv she had acted earlier and killed her!
If not, this wouldn’t have happened!
She lightly patted Old Master An, who was somewhat agitated, and spoke calmly, “Grandfather’s health isn’t good. I don’t want to argue with you. Go as far away as you can, don’t obstruct my view.”
“You can do whatever you want with your family. Just don’t find trouble with me..”
