Chapter 452: Chapter 451 Father At The Door_1

The Su family was caught up in a serious dispute over the division of the family, so Su Lao Si and Mrs. Su-Hua simply moved into Qin Mansion to be close to Pan’er and take care of her during childbirth. It added a bit of liveliness to the otherwise quiet house.

The people of Luoyan Village didn’t find this unusual. After all, it was common practice for mothers-in-law to help their daughters through childbirth, so no one found it strange.

Of course, the food was prepared by Aunt Zhou and Mrs. Su-Hua.

Jun Ruochen was very amiable, inviting everyone to join him for a meal and having a few drinks with Su Lao Si.

With the recent turmoil in the Su family, Su Lao Si was not in high spirits. After a few cups of alcohol, he couldn’t help but vent his grievances to Jun Ruochen.

"When my eldest brother passed away, it was us from the forth branch who took care of his funerals. But now, my second brother, along with Su Ping’er, is accusing me and the foolish girl of killing our eldest brother." The "foolish girl" he referred to was Su Ping’er.

Everyone stopped eating at this statement.

Su Pan’er raised an eyebrow: "Father, why haven’t I heard you mention this before? When did this happen?

They say she killed Su Sikong? These words are upside down!

"Let’s consider having heard these words and leave it at that! Everyone here is sensible and would naturally not take this seriously. Let bygones be bygones after the deceased is gone."

Jun Ruochen consoled him.

"I wish I could let it go. But, they relentlessly hold on to this matter."

Su Lao Si looked bitter: "They even blamed Pan’er for Su Yue’er’s disappearance. They think that Su Yue’er disappeared because my foolish girl harmed her. Fortunately, when Su Yue’er disappeared, the foolish girl was at the county government office. Nothing about that can be fabricated. Otherwise, even if the foolish girl could grow multiple mouths, I’m afraid she wouldn’t be able to argue her way out!"

"Su Yue’er got into trouble because of Sister Pan’er? Haha, these people sure have a wild imagination!"

Jun Ruoxue couldn’t help but laugh covering her mouth: "Sister Pan’er was with me two days before and after her own incident. Didn’t Su Yue’er disappear right after the execution ground? Instead of finding the person, they were just making up stories! If they dare to sue us at the government office, I’ll first give them ten strokes of the pole!"

"Xue’er, stop joking!"

Jun Ruochen softly chided her, then turned back to Su Lao Si: "There’s a saying, ’Many a little makes a mickle.’ You are all part of the Su family—the same bones and tendons. It’s okay for you to talk privately about these issues, but if it goes to the Public Hall...It will become a different matter."

Getting a hint from Jun Ruochen, Su Lao Si quickly nodded: "Understood, we understand. Come on, let’s have another drink, sir."

After everyone had their fill of food and drinks, Jun Ruochen and his sister left with smiles on their faces.

As soon as they left, Su Lao Si wiped his face, and looked at Su Pan’er with a happy smile, showing no signs of being drunk.

"The family has been in chaos because of the dispute for the past few days. They intend to sue you to take away your share, trying to short-change our fourth branch. Although a little more or less inheritance wouldn’t affect much, we absolutely cannot lose our share for such a reason. That Su Ping’er is really a double-dealer. She has been married for years and never came back, but as soon as she did, she wanted to take a share from the Su family. She really is..."

Su Lao Si spoke resentfully, clearly holding no good feelings for Su Ping’er.

"Father, no matter what, Su Ping’er is the second wife of the Prefect. You better not rush to face disaster head-on. If she wants to harm you, God knows what disaster it will cause." Su Pan’er quickly tried to calm him.

"Now this disaster has already come knocking on its own. It’s not like I can just back out if I want to."

Su Lao Si remains calm: "Foolish girl, just focus on your pregnancy health. I’m a man in my forties. Can I be bullied by her? Don’t worry about it!"

How could Su Pan’er just let it go?

It seemed that she needed to visit the Su family.

Before she could act, however, unexpected guests arrived early the next day, interrupting her plan to go to the Su family.

The visitors were accompanied by Jun Ruochen and Lui Muyi.

The man was in his forties, his square face unyielding, eyes twinkling. The small goat beard on his chin and his simple attire could not conceal a bearing borne of high standing.

The moment he entered he stared at Su Pan’er, unable to move his gaze away.

His gaze made Su Pan’er feel uneasy. She turned to Jun Ruochen and Lui Muyi, questioning them with a puzzled look.

Jun Ruochen simply looked on, while Lui Muyi repeatedly winks at her; neither of them spoke.

The middle-aged man observed her closely, focusing on her brows and eyes. He spent a long time looking at her right ear, and sure enough, found a small black mole behind it.

An expression of immense joy suddenly spread across his face.

"It’s her! It’s her, it’s truly my Jie’er! Father has missed you so much!"

With that, he reached out to embrace Su Pan’er.

Su Pan’er was startled!

She instinctively dodged, avoiding his embrace.

The middle-aged man’s attempts to hug her failed, making him look puzzled: "Jie’er? What’s wrong?"

"Sir, my name is Su Pan’er, not the Jie’er you’re referring to."

Su Pan’er said seriously, "Also, men and women should not touch each other casually. I hope you can show respect!"

Her words made everyone’s expressions turn strange.

"Younger Sister Pan’er, this man is Lord Liu of the Liu Family from Capital City. He has come specifically to find his daughter Liu Lijie, who has been missing for sixteen years."

Jun Ruochen quickly stepped forward to introduce him, and then looked at Lord Liu: "Uncle Liu, don’t rush. Sister Pan’er has always been unaware of her origins. You suddenly... naturally scared her."

Su Pan’er’s heart skipped a beat! But she instinctively denied it.

"What does it mean by scaring me? Who is Liu Lijie? I don’t know her at all."

She had long understood that the original body was not the biological daughter of Su Lao Si and Mrs. Su-Hua.

But ever since she came to the Su family, Su Lao Si and Mrs. Su-Hua have genuinely regarded her as their own daughter and they never gave up on her, even in life-threatening circumstances!

And she also sincerely regarded Su Lao Si and Mrs. Su-Hua as her parents!

A stranger suddenly showed up, claiming to be her father?

That was something Su Pan’er found hard to accept.

"Jie’er, are you angry with your father? When we lost you back then, it was absolutely out of our control! Over the years, your mother has been longing for you. She often cries until her eyes went blind hoping to find you. In order to find you, she tried everything possible..."

Looking a mix of joy and sorrow, Lord Liu stepped forward to take Su Pan’er’s hand, but she dodged him again.

"Jie’er, don’t be like this! Listen to me, when we left you, we had our difficulties! Back then..."
