Chapter 710: Chapter 698: Taken Away
Guan Chao, at Helian Shuang’s place.
The butler rushed in, holding something in hand, heading straight for the second floor.
Coincidentally, Helian Shuang and Qin Mengshu were coming down the stairs. Seeing the butler in such a hurry, Helian Shuang looked displeased, "Why are you in such a rush?"
"Miss," the butler said urgently, "this was just found in the mailbox in the inner courtyard."
Helian Shuang frowned, looking suspiciously at the item in the butler’s hand... Someone actually put something in the mailbox of her courtyard? This is too bizarre! The mailbox in the inner courtyard was only for decoration, even the morning newspaper was delivered by the servants.
How could someone put something in the mailbox?
"What is it?"
Helian Shuang furrowed her brows, took the item from the butler, and quickly opened it.
Qin Mengshu said, "It’s a USB drive."
The two exchanged a glance and went up to the study together.
Qin Mengshu helped turn on the computer and inserted the USB. "Sister, why don’t you take a look yourself? I’ll step out for a bit."
Helian Shuang frowned, unsure of what was inside, but did not refuse. "Alright, you wait for me downstairs."
"Okay."
As soon as Qin Mengshu left, Helian Shuang immediately opened the USB drive. It was almost empty, only containing a single video...
It was the footage of Yu Sangwan accompanying Le Zhengsheng in the isolation ward!
But this had obviously been edited and was incomplete.
Helian Shuang only saw part of it, but that part was enough to make her furious!
In the video, Yu Sangwan said to Le Zhengsheng, "A’Sheng, do you still want to be with me now?"
"A’Sheng." Yu Sangwan gently held his hand, "I’m willing to take care of you."
The intervening processes were erased, leaving only the final part where they hugged, with Yu Sangwan crying as she encouraged Le Zhengsheng, "A’Sheng, be strong... don’t give up! Little Mantou and I will be with you, together!"
...
"Ah!" Helian Shuang cried out in anger and fury, raising her hand to sweep everything off the table onto the floor.
The butler and Qin Mengshu heard the commotion and hurried over, "Miss..."
"Sister," Qin Mengshu quickly stepped forward, "what happened?"
Helian Shuang couldn’t calm down now. Her mind was filled with one thought... Yu Sangwan wants to be with Le Zhengsheng! No, this is absolutely not allowed! Yu Sangwan can marry anyone, but... she absolutely can’t take Little Mantou with her to get married!
"Butler!"
"Yes."
Helian Shuang shouted, "Get the car ready, call the bodyguards!"
"...Yes." The butler dared not ask more, immediately went to make arrangements.
"Sister." Qin Mengshu didn’t know what to do, "What exactly happened? Do you want me to go with you?"
"Mengshu!" Helian Shuang grabbed Qin Mengshu, "Come with me! I’m so angry, when the time comes, you have to help me a bit!"
"Okay, alright."
Helian Shuang stormed downstairs in a rush. She sped away from Guan Chao in a car, destination Fu Family.
At this time, Fu Xianlin and Yu Sangwan were not at home. Little Mantou was home from school early, currently playing in the garden with the servants accompanying him.
Helian Shuang rushed over aggressively, and the Fu family’s butler along with the servants knew who she was and didn’t dare provoke her, "Miss Helian, would you... like to come in and sit? Mr. and Miss haven’t returned yet."
"Qingming?"
Helian Shuang ignored the question, sweeping a sharp gaze around, "Quickly bring Qingming to me!"
By rights, a grandmother wanting to see her grandson wasn’t unusual, but her demeanor was frightening. The butler instructed the servants, "Go to the backyard and bring the young master over, and also... immediately inform Mr. and Miss."
"Yes."
Little Mantou was playing and covered in sweat, hands stained with mud, carried over by a servant. At the sight of Helian Shuang, he wasn’t enthusiastic; he was somewhat afraid of this grandmother because she didn’t like his favorite mom.
"Qingming."
Helian Shuang saw her grandson and quickly squatted down, putting on a smile. "Look at you, all sweaty..."
She took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from her grandson’s forehead.
Little Mantou stood straight, feeling uncomfortable all over, "Grandma."
"Ah, good boy..." Helian Shuang smiled, patting her grandson’s head, "How about coming home with grandma?" Little Mantou shrank back, blinking, "But this is my home!"
Helian Shuang was taken aback, then laughed, "This is your maternal grandfather’s home. Qingming has a daddy, daddy’s home... that’s Qingming’s real home. Qingming has the surname Lu, not Fu, right?"
"..." Little Mantou stared, not understanding what his grandmother meant.
Helian Shuang signaled to the bodyguards with her eyes, "Take the young master away!"
"Yes!"
The bodyguard immediately stepped forward and picked up Little Mantou.
At this moment, Little Mantou truly began to be frightened, struggling with all his limbs, "No! I won’t go! I don’t want to go to daddy’s home... daddy hasn’t been there for ages, there’s nothing at home, I want to stay with mom!"
Seeing her grandson like this, Helian Shuang became even more furious.
She shouted, "What are you standing around for? Quickly take the young master to the car!"
"Yes."
The butler was in a panic, hurriedly instructing the servants to stop them. "Miss Helian, you can’t take away the young master! He’s everything to our Miss!"
"Hmph!"
Helian Shuang sneered, lifting an eyebrow, "Just you people... you think you can stop me? I advise you to be sensible! Don’t force me to get rough!"
Although the Fu Family was a wealthy household, how could they compare to Guan Chao? The bodyguards of Guan Chao were armed! One look from Helian Shuang, and the bodyguards immediately revealed their weapons. The butler and all the servants at the Fu Family didn’t dare move...
"Go!"
"Uncle Butler!" Little Mantou cried and shouted, stretching his hands towards the butler, "Little Mantou doesn’t want to go! Uncle..."
The butler looked on feeling pained, tears falling, "Young master, be good..."
In the end, Helian Shuang still took Little Mantou away.
The butler stood at the door wiping his tears, sighing, "Mr., Miss... when you come back, how am I supposed to explain?"
...
Guan Chao.
After entering the compound, Little Mantou’s temper hadn’t calmed. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
Qin Mengshu asked Helian Shuang, "Sister, this young master..."
Helian Shuang sighed, "He’s got a bad temper, please bear with him... he’s my grandson, Jinxuan’s son..."
Qin Mengshu was slightly stunned, Jinxuan... Lu Jinxuan, of course, she had heard of him. The eldest son of the Lu Family, who lived very low-key in the Holy City’s high society, but the aura of his name was prominent, not dimmed by his low profile.
Helian Shuang thought for a moment, "Mengshu, this child... will stay with us in the future, if you could treat him kindly..."
How clever was Qin Mengshu? She immediately grasped Helian Shuang’s hand, "I will, since he’s your grandson, I’ll certainly take care of him as my own child."
"Ah... good." Helian Shuang nodded in relief.
Upstairs, in the room, the servants were trying to bathe Little Mantou.
But Little Mantou was so stubborn, he didn’t let anyone touch him, all the servants who went in were chased out by him.
"Get out! All of you get out!"
’Bang’, ’Crash’!
When Qin Mengshu went in, the servants were retreating, standing in a line.
"What’s going on?"
The servants murmured, "The young master is throwing a tantrum..."
Qin Mengshu glanced inside, the corners of her mouth curving. She didn’t believe it, could a child of five or six really make such a fuss? In families like theirs, hadn’t they seen all kinds of children with strange temperaments?
"I’ll go."
Qin Mengshu rolled up her sleeves and walked straight into the bathroom.
"Get out!" As soon as she entered, her forehead was hit.
Opening her eyes, Qin Mengshu was furious, her face turning green, Little Mantou stood there, grabbing whatever was at hand and throwing it, regardless of who had come in, at this moment tilting his little chin upwards, "Hey! You maid! Go tell my grandma, I want to go home!"
