Surrounded by the Billionaire's Deep Doting

Chapter 1026 - 694: Stubbornness or Hidden Motives?

Logically speaking, no matter who the person is, they wouldn’t withstand Yin Shiqing’s repeated torments.

Yet this father, the way he speaks...

seems pretty concerned whether Yin Shiqing is dead or alive...

Yin Shaohui didn’t expect Yin Shixiu to be so perceptive, catching his meaning immediately.

"Since you’re asking, I’ll be honest with you, son."

"..."

"No matter how many unforgivable acts Yin Shiqing has committed, he was raised by your mother and me, he’s a war orphan, and his father and I were brothers in arms, a bond formed through life and death."

"When his parents died, I swore that I would ensure Yin Shiqing survived well."

"So?"

"If Yin Shiqing’s crimes don’t warrant death, then let’s not push him to a corner, give him a way out."

Yin Shixiu held the small tea cup, his fingers tracing the rim, pondering as he nodded...

"Yes, let’s not push him to a corner, give him a way out..."

Yin Shaohui stared intently at Yin Shixiu,

"Dad isn’t trying to defend Yin Shiqing; he’s indeed unforgivable, ruthless, and despicable. I’m not clinging to that promise, after all, you are our biological son..."

"Ha ha..."

Yin Shixiu didn’t say anything, just let out a soft chuckle.

His gaze still lingered on the small cup of tea in his hand.

"We know the hardships Xiaomeng has endured; indeed, Yin Shiqing deserves to die, but... let’s consider it as accumulating virtue for the Yin Family’s descendants, don’t annihilate the Jiang Family, or else..."

"Old man."

Yin Shixiu put the small cup of tea he had been holding for a long time back on the table.

He unlocked the wheelchair’s mechanism and then steered it toward the tea room door, leaving only one sentence,

"You can defend your son, but don’t involve me and Xiaomeng."

"Fourth son, I said we’re not defending Yin Shiqing. The other day, your mom had a dream—"

"That’s enough."

Yin Shixiu raised his hand.

"I wondered why Meng Meng seemed off after just going upstairs with mom; I guess you old couple planned to break us one by one."

"Fourth son!"

"Old man, if you keep entangling with me over Yin Shiqing, I think, for a while, Xiaomeng and I won’t be coming here to stay."

Yin Shaohui was startled and quickly said,

"Alright, alright, I won’t say it, I won’t say it anymore! Whatever you want to do, just do it!"

Yin Shaohui let out a heavy sigh and rubbed his forehead.

Yin Shixiu pushed the door open and wheeled himself out.

Outside, guests gathered in groups of three or five, and it was lively both inside and outside the hall.

Yin Shixiu and Su Xiaomeng were deeply disappointed with what Yin Shaohui and Zhou Mengqin had said.

They didn’t expect that at such a time, after Yin Shiqing had repeatedly tried to endanger Su Xiaomeng and him, and after Yin Shiqing had actually caused the death of his and Xiaomeng’s child...

The old couple still wanted him and Su Xiaomeng to give Yin Shiqing a way out.

Are they insane!

Yin Shixiu couldn’t care at this moment whether the old couple had some unspeakable difficulties.

He just felt that the old couple’s indulgence and permissiveness toward Yin Shiqing over the years resulted in this bitter fruit for him and Su Xiaomeng to bear.

The tea room door opened and then closed.

Yin Shaohui sat on the wicker chair, looking frail and elderly, which stirred a trace of pity in people.

Not knowing how long he sat, the old man finally got up, leaning on his cane, dragging his hunched body with a slow, aged pace, went upstairs.

In the room, Zhou Mengqin leaned against the bed, her face filled with worry and distress.

Seeing Yin Shaohui sigh as he entered, Zhou Mengqin didn’t need to ask to know...

"It seems the two of them truly are of one mind."

Yin Shaohui sat on the edge of the bed, holding his wife’s hand,

"Yin Shiqing brought this upon himself, as you say, if we were in our younger days, no, even just five or six years younger, we wouldn’t be admitting defeat like this."

"I’m truly afraid..."

Zhou Mengqin trembled as she clasped Yin Shaohui’s hand,

"These days, I’ve been having nightmares, repeated nightmares..."

Yin Shaohui gently brushed aside the silver strands on his wife’s forehead,

"You need to stop overthinking, thinking about it in the day leads to dreaming about it at night, you see, Shixiu has such a big fate, Wu Rong and Shi Shengde planted explosives on the yacht, yet Shixiu still survived."

"Wu Rong and Shi Shengde wanted to blow up the fourth son! And Yin Shiqing? What method would he use?!"

"..."

"Such a ruthless person, if the fourth son and Xiaomeng corner him, give him no way out, and he becomes the next Wu Rong! What then?!"

Zhou Mengqin said, eyes full of anxiety and fear.

Yin Shaohui was also frightened by Zhou Mengqin’s words.

"Lately, my eye has been twitching a lot, and I’ve been having nightmares at night."

"Now, Yin Shiqing has lost the backing of the Shi Family, Wu Rong has been caught, and the Rong Family has cut ties with him. He’s now fully intent on doing something; you see how he came over today..."

"He’s even willing to lower himself and apologize, disregarding his face."

"Yin Shiqing is truly unfeeling! The look on his face later was entirely like a god-slayer and a Buddha-killer."

Zhou Mengqin felt distressed as she spoke.

Yin Shaohui held his cane, his fists clenched so tight that his knuckles turned white.

"Don’t we understand what Brother Bai said?"

"If the wolf turns back, it’s either repaying a debt or seeking revenge; don’t we understand this logic!"

"But the truth is, if you can’t deliver a fatal blow when you have the chance, you shouldn’t act rashly!"

"Have you told Xiaomeng this?"

Yin Shaohui hurriedly asked.

"I wanted to tell her gently, not to scare her along with us, making it seem like we’re truly afraid of Yin Shiqing, but before I could finish, Su Xiaomeng interrupted me."

Zhou Mengqin frowned,

"What did she say? That she would chop Yin Shiqing into pieces and certainly wouldn’t leave him a whole corpse, what a firm resolve!"

Yin Shaohui could only sigh at these words,

"What the fourth son said is quite similar to Xiaomeng’s words."

"Ah, right, did you ask Shixiu? When Bai Sidong came to take people, was it for arrest or just questioning?"

"At most, just cooperating with questioning for a few days in detention; if no new evidence emerges during the period, the detention won’t hold Yin Shiqing."

"..."

Zhou Mengqin slapped her thigh upon hearing this,

"I knew it. From Bai Sidong’s tone, I knew they haven’t grasped any concrete evidence at all!"

"Guo Tong’s testimony, now that he’s gone, just relying on this to detain Yin Shiqing... it’s hard!"

Yin Shaohui let out another heavy sigh,

"They’re too hasty; I guessed that after Wu Rong and Rong Jing, they would immediately take measures against Yin Shiqing... couldn’t stop them even if I tried."

Zhou Mengqin and Yin Shaohui’s worries were something Su Xiaomeng and Yin Shixiu didn’t understand.

Maybe the old couple is just too old, and the incident with Yin Shixiu this time was such a heavy blow, making them overly cautious for future misfortunes.

Or maybe...

Xiaomeng and Shixiu really... are pushed to the limit.
