Surrounded by the Billionaire's Deep Doting

Chapter 1028 - 695: Endure What Others Cannot, Achieve What Others Cannot

"So... if the scenario from today was to unfold before you once more, you would still react the same way, wouldn’t you?"

"...Yes."

Su Xiaomeng nodded, but her gaze no longer met her grandfather’s, she was timid.

Bai Fengmao looked at the little girl’s bowed head, her hair jet black, clear and distinct.

"To endure what others cannot endure, to suffer what others cannot suffer, only then can one achieve what others cannot achieve."

"..."

"Meng Meng, now you have a hundred, a thousand ways to strike Yin Shiqing, to humiliate Yin Shiqing."

Bai Fengmao stroked his white beard, slightly curled his lips, and when he said these words, the old man’s face was full of pride and admiration for his granddaughter.

Su Xiaomeng pursed her lips, slowly raised her head, the afternoon breeze blowing through the spacious and empty courtyard.

The thick branches of the sycamore tree trembled lightly, tawny leaves fell from the branches, creating the backdrop for her grandfather.

"Grandpa doesn’t intend to blame you; he just has higher expectations for you."

"Your father-in-law and mother-in-law feel the same way."

"..."

Bai Fengmao spoke slowly as Su Xiaomeng sat before his knees, watching this elder, a wise man giving her guidance.

Patient persuasion, earnest instruction.

"What I said earlier at the table wasn’t to help you, I was just expressing my own thoughts, everyone stands from their own position."

"As an old friend of your father-in-law and mother-in-law, I can’t bear to see them so blindly, and as your grandfather, I can’t bear to see the one who hurt you or harmed Shixiu speak so pompously."

"That’s all."

The sycamore leaves rustled in the breeze.

Su Xiaomeng sat, watching the dead leaves on the ground... it was as if she was pondering, digesting every word, every phrase from her grandfather.

Bai Fengmao just sat there, autumn skies cooling, but the afternoon sunshine was still warm enough.

Soon after, Bai Fengmao closed his eyes, breathing steadily, his chest rising and falling...

Su Xiaomeng got up, went inside, and fetched a blanket for Bai Fengmao, covering him with it, still sitting on that small stool.

She picked up a twig from near her feet, peeled away the fallen leaves on the ground, casually marking in the dirt...

The gate of Jun Garden was opened again.

Su Chengji pushed Yin Shixiu’s wheelchair, followed by Yin Junjie, as they walked in.

Su Xiaomeng heard the commotion and quickly stood up to greet them, motioning for them to quiet down, as her grandfather had just fallen asleep.

Su Chengji paused,

"Sleeping outside?"

"The sun is quite warm."

Su Chengji nodded slightly, chose not to say more, and pushed Yin Shixiu along the corridor into the room.

Yin Junjie followed...

Su Xiaomeng looked at Little Junjie’s swollen eyes, bent down, and gently rubbed his face,

"Tired from crying, huh?"

Yin Junjie bowed his head, his mouth gently pouting a little, "A bit."

Su Xiaomeng brought Yin Junjie into her embrace, gently patting his back,

"I’m sorry, Little Junjie... Fourth Granny really couldn’t consider your feelings."

"..."

"The grudges between me and your Fourth Grandpa, and your biological grandparents, shouldn’t have dragged you, a child, into it..."

"Fourth Granny..."

Yin Junjie reached out to hug Su Xiaomeng, buried his head in her bosom, before earnestly lifting his eyes to ask,

"What will happen to Grandpa? What will happen to Grandma? What will happen to my Dad?"

Three questions.

Accompanied by Yin Junjie’s sincere, deep, eyes that should have been innocent and carefree, eyes that should have been simple and unburdened.

Su Xiaomeng felt that in front of this child, she was like an executioner, one who had personally destroyed his home...

"I don’t know."

"Fourth Granny, it’s okay... just tell me, I just want to know... I just want to know..."

Yin Junjie said somewhat anxiously.

Su Xiaomeng, somewhat at a loss, turned her gaze to Yin Shixiu.

Yin Shixiu took a deep breath, reached out to hold Yin Junjie’s hand, and then said to Su Xiaomeng and Su Chengji,

"You both go out for a while, I need to talk to Jun Jie. Some things are better discussed between men, right?"

Yin Shixiu looked at Yin Junjie.

Yin Junjie released Su Xiaomeng’s hand, looked at Yin Shixiu, and nodded.

Only then did Su Xiaomeng breathe a sigh of relief and, without saying anything further, left the room with Su Chengji.

In the courtyard, by the sycamore tree, her grandfather was still asleep.

"I’ll head back to Zheng Garden to help your mother manage the guests."

"Dad, wait a minute..."

"Hmm?"

"Um... could you walk with me for a bit?"

Su Xiaomeng held onto her father’s arm, swaying it coquettishly.

Su Chengji seemed slightly surprised, but how could he refuse his daughter’s request?

"Let’s go."

Su Xiaomeng chuckled lightly.
