Chapter 381: Chapter 380 Scolding is Love, Beating is Intimacy!_1

The rosy clouds painted the horizon a tangerine hue.

Bathed in the glow of the setting sun, Su Pan’er and Qin Yi silently walked towards the Qin Family house."

Along the way, Qin Yi repeatedly wanted to speak, yet held back.

Seeing that they had crossed the river and were getting closer to home, with Su Pan’er still sulking and seeming unhappy, Qin Yi couldn’t help but speak up.

"Pan’er, I feel that our grandfather’s recent behavior seems to be rather deliberate!"

"Hm? What did you just say?"

Su Pan’er, who had been immersed in her thoughts, responded in a dazed manner.

"Earlier, when Grandfather offered to save her with the debt of gratitude he owed you, I felt something was off. Even if he wanted you to spare her, there was no reason to drive you away, was there? Particularly our cousin’s sudden presentation of the Break Off Letter, don’t you think it’s strange?"

Qin Yi explained.

"Now that you mentioned it, I do recall something strange about my father and mother’s attitudes...and Ke’er’s attitude..."

She naturally felt it was odd, but at the time, she didn’t probe further.

Looking back, not to mention that grandfather’s demeanor changed too quickly, even her parents’ attitudes were off. Especially her mother, crying without saying anything, was very uncharacteristic of her usual behavior.

As the proverb goes: "Where there’s smoke, there’s fire!"

If there wasn’t some convoluted scheme hiding behind all this, no one would believe it at all!

"This won’t do, I must go back and ask Grandfather for clarification!"

Su Pan’er, determined as the wind, turned to head back to the Su Family, only to be held back by Qin Yi!

"Don’t go!"

"Why?" Su Pan’er was somewhat puzzled.

"I think your Grandfather wanted to drive you away because he didn’t want you to return to the Su Family, thus completely severing ties with them, at least on the surface,"

Qin Yi explained earnestly: "With your Uncle’s incident, the Su Family will definitely be implicated. At such a critical juncture, Grandfather’s arrangements seemed to have ulterior motives. Since he had prepared the Break Off Letter in advance, it demonstrates that he had decided on this course long ago, possibly even consulting with your parents. You know your mother’s temper; under such circumstances, she would never be so calm and would definitely rail against it."

"With your explanation, I suddenly understand,"

Su Pan’er’s eyes brightened further, filled with regret: "You mean that Grandfather wanted to protect me and therefore, forced me to leave?"

"Most likely that’s the case. However, there should be other intentions as well. Even if you rush back to the Su Family now, it would only bring more heartache and would not benefit anyone,"

Qin Yi nodded, speaking slowly: "Instead, it’s better to think carefully about the purpose of their actions! Earlier, when you said that Ke’er will always be your brother and your parents will always be your father and mother, I noticed an unintentionally relieved expression on Grandfather’s face. Therefore, I surmise that he has other intentions, perhaps related to your parents and Ke’er."

"So, you mean Grandfather had me leave the Su Family not only to protect me, but also so that I can step back, and when the time comes, lend a helping hand to the Su Family, or at least to Ke’er and my parents?"

Realization dawned on Su Pan’er, delight slowly appearing on her face.

However, a trace of sadness flashed across her eyes. On such a major event, Grandfather made the decision without involving her.

But then again, if he had discussed it with her, she probably would not have agreed. Moreover, given her state at the time, she would have never rested until Su Yue’er was dealt with!

Looking at it now, Grandfather’s action was actually a strategy that achieved three objectives in one go."

Qin Yi agreed with a nod.

"So it was acting with a hidden purpose. There is wisdom in his age after all!"

"Yes, even I was kept in the dark. If it weren’t for you reminding me, I might still be upset for quite some time."

A cheerful Su Pan’er unknowingly wiped some sweat: "Just this morning I was advising Grandfather to make a decision as soon as possible. I didn’t expect that by the evening, he would have already made such a decision."

"Now I finally understand why my father, mother, and Grandfather were acting strange. No wonder my cousin mentioned ’showing understanding’, there was more to his words!"

She sighed heavily.

"As long as you understand, I’m not afraid of anything other than you being unhappy,"

Qin Yi chuckled.

"You knew all along yet you didn’t tell me, causing me to feel upset for half a day. If you wanted to take my bone, you should have just said so!"

Su Pan’er waved her fist angrily.

Qin Yi didn’t dodge or evade, letting the lightweight punch land on him.

"Silly, why didn’t you dodge?"

"A punch is an expression of affection, a reprimand is a display of love."

Qin Yi gently held her hand, gazing at her: "I was just worried about you rushing back anxiously! If that happened, it would not only make Grandfather more distressed but also ruin his plan. It wouldn’t be any help at all. Instead, it’s better for us to feign ignorance until there’s a resolution to the issue, then we can offer help when necessary. Whether it is in speaking or taking action, it will be much more convenient! See how smart your husband is!"

"You thick-skinned fellow."

Su Pan’er couldn’t help but laugh, raising her hand to strike again: "Alright! I’ll admit that you have a point. Let’s go, we should head back."

Qin Yi captured her hand in a swift motion, brought it to his lips and gently kissed it, causing Su Pan’er to withdraw in surprise.

"Stop it! It’s already getting dark."

"No worries, we’ll be home soon."

He tenaciously gripped her hand: "Alright, let’s go home!"

Hand in hand, they walked towards the old house of the Qin Family - their home - in the glow of the setting sun, their journey filled with laughter and joy.

The afterglow of the sunset illuminated their bodies, their silhouettes gradually merging into one, creating an image of unparalleled harmony and warmth.

At the Qin family house, Lui Ming had almost been sitting and waiting for them for an entire day.

He kept glancing at the gate, his eyes filled with anxiety.

As soon as he saw their figures appear, he hurried over to greet them.

"Haha! Doctor Su, you’ve finally returned. I’ve been waiting for you all day, those of importance indeed are busy!"

"Uncle Lui?"

Su Pan’er and Qin Yi exchanged glances, quickly walking a few steps forward to pay their respects: "We’ve kept Uncle Lui waiting. Please come inside."

The two of them ushered Lui Ming into the house while making small talk.

Once they sat down as host and guest, they promptly served refreshments.

Lui Ming’s eyes flashed as he chuckled: "Scholar Qin, Pan’er, I hope you’ll forgive my abrupt visit today. I have an important matter to entrust to both of you, that’s why I’ve come to bother you."

"Uncle Lui is too serious, we should be the ones to apologize for being caught up with trivial matters and not visiting you,"

Su Pan’er smiled: "Speaking of, it’s been quite some time since we’ve seen Young Master Lui. The Clan Leader has frequently mentioned wanting to discuss the specific details of selling the Bamboo Leaf Green wine with him!"

"Sigh, he has been missing for quite some time, how are we supposed to negotiate? I have also been searching for him."

Lui Ming sighed deeply.

Even though Su Pan’er had heard rumors before, hearing it directly from Lui Ming carried more weight.

"What exactly happened? How could he just disappear without a trace?"
