Chapter 1562 - Teeny Su
The simple narrative made Shen Luo’an’s heart uncontrollably ache.
Guan Queye had been murdered by Ye Youyou and was now dead? What a joke!
It was impossible for Ye Youyou to do something like that. It was unlikely enough for her to be able to defend herself if someone was out to murder her, much less for her to actually murder someone.
That woman was as weak as a little lamb. Otherwise, she would never have been subjected to his harsh treatment all those years.
Ever since Guan Queye had met with that incident, everything had changed.
Shen Luo’an was quiet for a moment before replying, “I’ll come back immediately. Give me a brief summary of what happened.”
Shen Zhilie lost his temper and laughed humorlessly.
“Where were you earlier?” he demanded, “Guan Queye is already dead at this point. Guan Yanhong has already released word that if he sees you, he’s going to torture you to death! He’s not even bothering to show any respect to our father at this point. Coming back now will do you more harm than good.”
Shen Luo’an hung up the phone when he heard that. He headed into the washroom and quickly cleaned himself up. He was soon out the door, flagging a taxi to the airport.
Even if Shen Luo’an wasn’t familiar with the ins-and-outs of the situation, he was sure that someone would bring him up to date with the details when he reached the Capital.

There was a new member in the Yuxiu Villa Estate. Li Jianyue and her two older brothers were running in circles around it. It was a puppy with yellow fur and a pair of shiny dark eyes. Its tongue was hanging out as it chased the children up and down.
Li Jianyue grabbed a ball and threw it toward the golden retriever puppy as she yelled, “Teeny Su, come here!”
It was Teeny Su’s first day in this household. The puppy was clearly unfamiliar with the name.
When it saw Li Jianyue waving at it, the puppy immediately wagged its tail and ran over, running in circles around her legs and barking in its puppy way, “Ruff!”
“Ersu, don’t get too close. If you get bitten, you’re going to need to get an injection!” Su Qianci’s pregnant belly was slightly protruding. She looked on at her daughter helplessly before calling out, “Mosen, look after your sister.”
Li Mosen ran up and pulled Li Jianyue by her hand. He said, “Ersu, don’t make Mommy worry. The puppy’s body isn’t clean. Nanny Rong will have to give her a bath.”
When Li Jianyue heard that the puppy was about to take a bath, her eyes sparkled. She exclaimed, “Really? We’re going to give the little puppy a shower? Awesome!”
“Not now. We have to wait for a few days,” Li Jianqian said as he walked over. “If the puppy is unaccustomed to the surroundings, it’ll start to have adverse reactions. It could end up having loose bowels and vomiting. That would be horrible.”
Li Jianyue only understood half of it. “Mommy,” she said, “Since you’re going to Grandpa’s house, can you take us along? I don’t want to play with with Teeny Su anymore. It’s not fun to play with her anyway.”
“No, stay at home and behave yourselves,” Su Qianci said. “Grandpa hasn’t been feeling too well lately, so you mustn’t go to the Old Manor. Behave yourselves at home and listen to Nanny Rong, OK? Do you understand me?”
Li Jianyue was unhappy and pouted her lips. She asked, “Why is Older Brother allowed to go?”
She turned toward Li Jianqian and unhappily said, “Mommy, you’re being biased. Daddy is biased, too. Why is Old Brother the only one allowed to go? Why aren’t we allowed to?”
“Stay at home with Old Brother Mosen and be good. Older Brother is going to Grandpa’s place to stay. There’s no one else and no other children in Grandpa’s home. Grandpa is very lonely.” Su Qianci stroked the top of Li Jianyue’s head. “I’ll bring back something tasty for you to eat.”
Li Jianyue grew even more upset and twisted her body away. She protested, “Was Teeny Su meant to replace my Older Brother? I don’t want it!”
