Chen Wenxuan had kidnapped Xia Yu for quite a few days. Although Shen Yan sent men to look for them every day, he hadn’t received any news yet. Meanwhile, Mrs. Xia stayed with her phone every day, waiting for Chen Wenxuan to call her for money. However, she received no call from him.

The more they procrastinated, the worse Xia Yu’s situation obviously became. What’s worse, this time Cheng Xi was with Xia Yu. Everyone was in great anxiety except one person.

“I told you that my Little Mo didn’t do that but no one believed. Now, you all know the truth. Our Little Mo is so nice that he doesn’t want to argue with you. But aren’t you all supposed to let someone apologize on your behalf?” Having been moody for so many days, First Madame finally held her head up again.

“Under such a circumstance, how could you still say that? Is that proper as First Aunt?” Old Madame couldn’t bear it anymore so she scolded her aside.

“Mother, you’re so partial. When Shen Yan turned his pistol at his eldest brother’s head then, what did you say? Now the truth comes out but you still speak in his favor. Are you a good Granny?” Regardless of the concrete situation, First Madame chose to vent her anger first because she assumed it was rightful.

What she said was getting more and more ridiculous. Even Shen Yang, who liked to meddle, couldn’t bear, “Sister-in-law, don’t say anymore. Xiao Yu and Cheng Xi are still in danger.”

“Is it we who make them in danger? But for Xia Yu mistook him for a good man and invited him home, should it have happened? She has it coming to her. Who can she blame it on?” Don’t say anymore? Why? She felt she must vent it out.

“Let’s go!” If he stayed a minute longer, that Old Madame would probably use force.

“Shen Yan, don’t leave before you apologize!” First Madame reached her arm to stop Shen Yan.

“That’s enough!” Old Madame really got angry and stood in front of Shen Yan, “Don’t apologize. I’ll see what she’ll do.”

“Granny, it was I who mistook my eldest brother. I am supposed to apologize.” At this moment, Shen Yan only wanted to spend his time looking for Xia Yu, not arguing with them incessantly.

“Eldest Brother, I’m sorry!” Shen Yan came to Shen Mo and said.

“Now you want to look for Xia Yu so I won’t argue with you. But you still owe me an explanation that you pointed the pistol at my head.” Shen Mo coldly glanced at Shen Yan and then turned around to go upstairs.

“Wait!” Hearing Shen Mo’s words, Old Madame used her crane to knock on the ground with the strength. She didn’t expect that this mother and her son should be so mean and callous. She felt deeply sad in her heart. Seeing Shen Mo going upstairs, Old Madame called him to stop, “This house is left to me to your grandpa’s will. Now you two move out at once.”

Xia Yu had gone missing for so many days. As the eldest brother, he didn’t even offer help but force his brother to apologize in haste. Such an eldest brother, what was the use of him?

“Mother!” Shen Yang uttered aside.

Old Madame knew that her daughter wanted to persuade her but she motioned her to shut up, “This is my decision, not depending on anyone else. Their private belongings should be packed up in two hours, monitored by the housekeeper. When time is out, throw them out.”

“Mother, what do you mean? Little Mo is your own grandson!” First Madame saw Old Madame was serious so she became anxious. If they were to be driven out, they might have difficulty coming back again.

This old house was famous as a national cultural relic. If they moved out, Shen Yan and Shen Qiang would be benefited most. She wouldn’t let it happen.

“Hah, my own grandson!” Old Madame sneered but she ignored First Madame. Instead, she said to the housekeeper aside, “The countdown is from now on. If I see them here when time is out, you are to be fired.”

“Mother!” In the past ten odd years, Second Madame had never seen her be so resolved, “Mother, our family has gotten through all the difficulty. What difficulty couldn’t we solve now?”

“Granny, don’t get angry. It’s my fault above all. I shouldn’t suspect my eldest brother. I am supposed to make an apology all along.” Seeing things getting worse, Shen Yan had to subdue his anxiety in his heart to persuade Old Madame.

“Don’t say anymore. I’ve made up my mind. Housekeeper, countdown now.” After saying so, Old Madame returned to her room supported by Secretary Yang.

“Mother, you can’t do that. You’re so partial. I won’t accept it!” First Madame tried to catch up. She wouldn’t want to move out, whatever.

“First Madame, you’d better begin moving now.” The housekeeper stood in First Madame’s way. She was only given two hours. If she procrastinated, her time would run out soon. Was he really supposed to throw her things out?

Although Old Madame said impulsively, the housekeeper didn’t dare to violate her order. However, Shen Mo was First Young Master after all. If he didn’t give him any respect, he felt it was improper. But he might be sacked if he did so.

He was only a servant, laboring here for making money. He wished First Madame wouldn’t make trouble for him.

“Even you want to drive me out? You, you are nothing to me!” Although she didn’t dare to quarrel with Old Madame, First Madame then got angry with this servant, venting her rage on him.

“First Madame, sor… sorry. I didn’t mean that.” The housekeeper didn’t dare to provoke First Madame but he had to listen to Old Madame’s order.

“Sister-in-law, you don’t cause trouble for the housekeeper. Shall we go upstairs to plead for you?” Hearing First Madame scolding harshly, Shen Yang comforted her aside.

First Madame sneered, “Shen Yang, you, a married daughter, won’t be satisfied to depend on your mother’s family for living. Now you should dare to occupy this family’s property. You feel happy that you win?”

First Madame couldn’t bear these hypocritical faces anymore. Having endured for nearly thirty years, she didn’t want to endure any longer so she shouted at Shen Yang.

“Eldest brother, you persuade First Aunt. Regardless of the fact that Aunt doesn’t intend to occupy the family property, frankly speaking, she even deserves if Granny wants to give her any,” Shen Yan couldn’t bear what she said so he said aside, “we’re all the chairpersons of a company and have so many counsels. Even though we are not a law major, we are supposed to know that Aunt has the right to be the heir if Granny leaves everything to her. After all, she is Granny’s only child in the world.”

Shen Mo didn’t say anything. First Madame shrilled aside aggressively, “Shen Yan, don’t brag. If your granny leaves nothing to you, I won’t believe you will say that again.”

“First Aunt, it’s improper to say that now. Granny is very healthy now. Even if one day granny leaves nothing to me, I won’t hold a grudge. I make my voice in front of all the families except granny. If you won’t believe it, you can record it. If I regret one day, then you can play it to everyone.” Things got more entangled. Shen Yan had to look for Xia Yu so he had no time to argue with her here.

After saying so, Shen Yan patted Aunt’s arm as comfort. What First Madame said just now must have made her feel angry. She chose to keep silent in front of First Madame and Shen Yan just in order to avoid more trouble.

“You, you, Shen Yan! Good, good. You are a saint. You won’t fight. People of your kind, to be euphemistic, are mannered. But on the other side, to be frank, you are an idiot. Your granny doesn’t have one child Shen Yang only. Doesn’t your late father deserve anything?” First Madame almost pointed at and even touched Shen Yan’s nose but her eyes glared at Second Madame.

This silly woman should even bring up a silly boy.

“Sister-in-law, don’t say anymore.” When a person was angry, she would say something without thinking, which might hurt others’ feelings. Second Madame looked into Shen Mo’s direction aside, “Little Mo, take your mother to have a rest.”

At this moment, they indeed shouldn’t target at Aunt. Otherwise, Old Madame might drive them out of the company in a rage. They had worked for it for so many years. They couldn’t lose self-control at a crucial time.

“Young Master Mo, what about beginning to pack up now?” The housekeeper was in a dilemma. They had been quarreling for so long but Old Madame didn’t ask Secretary Yang to come to cancel her decision, which meant she was determined to drive them out.

“What do you mean?” Shen Mo was silent for a long while but this housekeeper was so bossy. After all, he was Shen Yan’s man and he indeed didn’t show any respect to him, the First Young Master.

The housekeeper was shocked. If Young Master Mo got angry, it would be a disaster. So he hurried to say, “Young Master Mo, may I go to ask Old Madame’s advice again?”

After he said so, the housekeeper ran to the stairs in such haste because he wanted to show Shen Mo that he, as a servant, dared not to be First Young Master’s enemy.

Not knowing it was out of his anxiety or his carelessness, he lost his balance and almost fell onto the steps. He staggered and then continued to go upstairs hastily.

When he got to the room door of Old Madame, the housekeeper stopped to catch his breath, making himself look calm and then knocked on the door.

“Who?” Secretary Yang’s voice rang through.

The housekeeper said hurriedly, “It’s me. I have something to report to Old Madame.”

Secretary Yang looked back at Old Madame, waiting for her reply.

Old Madame smiled slightly, “Needless to guess, that mother and her son are finding faults with the housekeeper and are unwilling to move out.”

The old house had good sound-insulating effects so Old Madame didn’t hear what was going on downstairs. However, Old Madame was shrewd enough to foresee the reason.

“Old Madame, although Young Master Mo has gone too far this time, would the punishment that you drive them out be too harsh?” To be honest, First Madame’s aggressiveness was too much for Secretary Yang and what Shen Mo said even made her feel more shocked.

Young Master Mo was so callous and mean. No wonder Old Madame was so sad. However, Shen Mo was Old Madame’s favorite grandson after all. She said that on the impulse of that moment. Did she really mean to drive them out?

But Old Madame did have authority in the family. Other people dared not to persuade her. Secretary Yang, who was close to her, didn’t want to have a try to persuade her since she knew Old Madame was sad?

Old Madame heaved a long sigh and shed tears before she said anything. In front of those children, Old Madame used to be tough. But today she couldn’t pretend anymore. She felt she was breaking down. “Harsh? Secretary Yang, you work for me for so many years. To be honest, do you think I’m harsh to him?”
