Completely ignoring An Yuqian's resistance, Qiao Xiaren had a cold and menacing look on her face. Without a shred of humanity, she seemed downright terrifying. An Yuqian suddenly regretted her actions.
Despite being in the living room, the old man kept his attention on what was happening nearby. Hearing the servants mention some disturbance, he immediately got up to investigate.
"What's going on now?"
"Sir, can you help me talk some sense into Xiaren? I'm only doing this for her benefit. Lanlan is already in her twenties, and Xiaren, only eighteen, still has plenty of opportunities ahead of her."
An Yuqian was no longer concerned about preserving her dignity. She began to plead with the old man.
As soon as he heard, the old man immediately understood the real reason behind An Yuqian's visit today.
His face promptly darkened.
"Grandfather, go back first. I have a score to settle with the Lan family."
