Everyone turned to look at Grandpa Li when they heard him say this.

Everyone else was shocked, including Su Qingsang. She also felt a bit sad and helpless.

She knew that Grandpa Li had gone back to the village to recuperate when she was getting married. In addition, she wasn’t the official daughter of the Su family, so Grandpa Li didn’t have any reason to show up.

She had had no idea that these people didn’t even notify Grandpa Li of her marriage. So be it. She wasn’t part of the Li family, so what was the use of notifying Grandpa Li now?

Grandpa Li saw that she was keeping quiet and furrowed his brows. “What? You’re unwilling?”

The old man was confused. Although the son of the old friend had some problems, he still had some benefits.

His family had agreed to gift fifty percent of their company’s stocks to the family if the Li family agreed to a marriage with them.

“Father.” Li Qianxue seemed to only just realize that she had never told her father about Su QIngsang’s marriage. “She’s already married.”

“What?”

“Yes, grandfather.” Su Peizhen had never thought that Grandpa Li would ever think to arrange a marriage for Su Qingsang. “She’s already married. Half a month ago.”

Grandfather Li’s face grew dark. “How come no one told me about such a big event?”

He had already been very upset with Su Chenghui when he cheated as soon as he got married. He had been even more upset when Su Qingsang was born.

He had even asked Su Chenghui to take Su Qingsang to the orphanage. It was Su Chenghui who begged him and promised that Su Qingsang would never threaten Su Peizhen’s position in the family.

He reluctantly agreed and allowed Su QIngsang to be raised in the Su family.

Su Peizhen had gotten engaged to Qiu Yanbo. The two were a good match and were childhood sweethearts.

Grandpa Li had thought it all out already. They raised an illegitimate daughter for so long, they should get something back from it.

It wasn’t because he was heartless. His only daughter married Su Chenghui, but Su Chenghui didn’t know how to appreciate her and had had an illegitimate daughter.

Since that was the situation, he didn’t need to be courteous with Su Chenghui. In addition, the family that he had chosen had it pretty good. It was Su Qingsang who was claiming ties with people in a higher position.

“What family is the boy from?”

Su Qingsang watched, acting like she wasn’t part of the situation.

Su Peizhen excitedly told her grandfather what she knew. Grandpa Li was silent while he listened the whole time. No one knew what he was thinking.

“Huo?” Was there a family of high status in Lin City with that surname?

Grandfather Li turned around to look at Li Qianxue.

Li Qianxue took a quick glance at her “daughter,” then turned back around to look at Grandpa Li.

“Father, it’s rare for you to come to events like this. There are so many people here and you must be tired from standing for so long. Why don’t you go rest?”

She didn’t like Su Qingsang, but she wouldn’t stoop so low as to make an illegitimate daughter look bad. As for Su Peizhen, sometimes she was too angry and liked to tease her, so she let her be.

“Since Su Qingsang is already married, reject the marriage. Our Li family doesn’t need to accomplish anything from marriage right now anyway.”

The Li family had married into the Qiu family because it was a good match and because Su Peizhen liked Qiu Yanbo. How else could they have arranged it?

As for Su Qingsang, as long as she wasn’t a threat to Su Peizhen, she wouldn’t pick on her.

And for the things and inheritances that Su Chenghui had given Su Qingsang, how would Su Qingsang have obtained them if she hadn’t agreed?

Grandfather Li was about to listen to his daughter and go back and rest when some news drifted in from the entrance.

It was the Qiu family’s banquet today and everyone was focused on them. Still, they saw the slender figure appear at the entrance and start walking towards them one step at a time.
