Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“Dad, don’t listen to her nonsense. She’s slandering us!” When Tao Siyuan saw his father’s expression become terrifying, he felt a little guilty. In the end, he was just an illegitimate child who was not recognized by the Tao family. If he angered the old master, he might be abandoned by the family at any time!

However, he did not want to lose everything he had now!

“Old Master, could it be that you believe an outsider’s words and not your own family member’s?” Xie Lian also helped to speak up. “Siyuan is your biological son. Everything he does is for the good of the Tao family.”

“That’s right, Dad…”

“Kneel down!” Elder Tao was furious.

Tao Siyuan was so frightened that he shivered. His knees went soft and he almost knelt down.

Xie Lian firmly grabbed his hand, forcing him to toughen up a little.

Tao Siyuan was sweating profusely. He was extremely nervous and afraid.

Xie Lian said unhurriedly, “Old Master, you can’t just listen to Jiang Yining’s one-sided words and treat Siyuan like this, right? We need evidence for everything. Can you produce any evidence to prove that we did what Jiang Yining said?”

She was giving her a taste of her own medicine.

Didn’t Jiang Yining just say that they had no evidence to prove that she was the one who ruined her appearance?

Now, she used the same reason to retort!

“Evidence? I don’t need any evidence. Siyuan is my son. I watched him grow up and understand his personality better than anyone else. According to his personality, 1 think he did what Miss Jiang said.”

Elder Tao stared at Tao Siyuan sharply and said coldly, “1 will give you one last chance. If you admit your crimes and accept your punishment, 1 will still treat you as a descendant of the Tao family.”

“If you don’t admit it, I’ll send someone to investigate it personally. As long as we find any clues that prove that you were the one who was after Lu Zhi and Jiang Yining’s lives, you’ll no longer be a descendant of the Tao family from now on!”

When Tao Siyuan heard this, he was sweating profusely. His back was drenched in sweat.

Jiang Yining watched the show calmly.

Rather than saying Elder Tao was wise, it would be better to say that he had decided to reconcile with the Lu family from the beginning. Otherwise, how could he not stand on his son’s side?

Tao Siyuan was an abandoned child. It was Elder Tao’s sincerity to the Lu family.

Unfortunately, Tao Siyuan and Xie Lian didn’t see through this relationship.

“All Lian…”

Tao Siyuan looked at Xie Lian pleadingly. He hoped that she wouldn’t be so stubborn. It wouldn’t do her any good to be defiant with Elder Tao.

Xie Lian felt angry and sorrowful when she looked at his good-for-nothing appearance. Why did she rely on such a man? He was Elder Tao’s biological son, and the bloodline could not be severed. Even if Elder Tao chased him out of the Tao family to reconcile with the Lu family, he would bring him back sooner or later.

However, he was scared by the old man and lost his backbone.

Even if they compromised and survived this crisis, so what if they continued to stay in the Tao family? He had already left behind a cowardly image for Elder Tao. Siyuan would definitely not be chosen as a candidate to inherit the Tao family in the future…

Xie Lian stood stiffly. “I believe that Siyuan didn’t do those things. I won’t admit that I did anything to Jiang Yining and her friends. Old Master, if you want to investigate, then send someone to do it. I’m not afraid.”

“Alright, you said so yourself.” Elder Tao slammed the table.

The housekeeper hurried forward.

“Find a few people and investigate…”

Elder Tao was halfway through his sentence.

Tao Siyuan fell to his knees and kowtowed repeatedly. “Dad, 1 know I was wrong. I was angry and impulsive, so I sent someone to teach Lu Zhi a lesson. But 1 never thought of taking his life. Our two families have been good friends for generations. I definitely wouldn’t dare to do anything that would damage the relationship between the two families. Lu Zhi must have misunderstood and thought that I wanted to kill him.”

Elder Tao stood up and kicked him in the chest.

Although Elder Tao was old, he had taken good care of his body. He kicked with full force. Tao Siyuan was instantly kicked to the ground.

His face was red from holding it in. He clutched his chest and got up in a panic.

He did not dare to resist and continued to kneel there obediently.

“You bastard! Why did I have a son like you? You are worse than a beast!”

Elder Tao wanted to kick again.

Xie Lian pounced forward and shielded Tao Siyuan.

The next second, she screamed.

Tao Siyuan panicked and quickly hugged her. “Lianlian, are you okay? Why are you so stupid? Your body is weak and you can’t take a beating. Why did you block this for me?”

Xie Lian opened her mouth, but before she could say anything, her vision went black and she fainted.

Tao Siyuan cried. “Someone! Someone call the doctor over!”

“Don’t call anyone!” Elder Tao said sternly. “The two of you are so audacious. You’re using our Tao family’s power to cause trouble! From today onwards, 1’11 abolish all the treatment that you deserve as a member of the Tao family. I’ll only give you two basic living expenses every month. In the future, you’d better behave yourself with your tail between your legs. You’re not allowed to cause trouble everywhere!”

Elder Tao ordered again, “Housekeeper, send them out! 1 don’t want to see them again!”

“Yes, Sir.”

The housekeeper ordered people to step forward and ask Tao Siyuan and Xie Lian to leave.

Tao Siyuan’s eyes were filled with tears as he stared at his father in disappointment and anger. “You said that as long as I confess, you won’t chase me out of the Tao family.”

“You’re still a member of the Tao family. I didn’t break my promise.”

Elder Tao said with a straight face.

When Tao Siyuan heard this, he laughed mockingly. What was the difference between getting rid of the treatment that a Tao family member should enjoy and being kicked out of the Tao family?

He was really naive!

He still had a glimmer of hope for the old master! He felt that he would protect him and Xie Lian on account of their kinship!

He was wrong, he was really wrong!

“Fourth Master, please.”

Seeing that Tao Siyuan did not move, the housekeeper ordered him to leave again.

Tao Siyuan carried Xie Lian and sneered, “You don’t have to rush me. I’ll walk by myself!”

In any case, he had fallen to this point.

What was he afraid of?

Not long after, Tao Siyuan left with Xie Lian.

Elder Tao’s expression softened a little. He looked at Jiang Yining and said, “I’m really sorry. 1 had no idea what they were doing. Miss Jiang, look… I’ve already punished them. Shouldn’t you be appeased?”

Jiang Yining smiled. “I’m not that angry anymore.”

“Then I’ll set up a meeting another day and treat our two families to a meal. Everyone can be friendly and treat it as if nothing had happened. What do you think?” Elder Tao knew that he was being a little submissive.

However, it was still difficult for them to deal with the Lu family.

With the addition of the Gu family, the Tao family was in a dire situation.

He thought about it for a long time before he made up his mind to find a breakthrough from Jiang Yining.

After all, she was just a little girl and easy to deal with.

Jiang Yining touched her chin with one hand and looked at him for a few seconds with a faint smile.. “Elder Tao, do you think I’m a fool, or do you really think I’m not smart enough to be played by you?”
