Chapter 898: Anger
Yu Feiyuan smiled bitterly to herself; this time, the old man Yu was truly enraged.
She had never seen her grandfather lose his temper like this before.
It seemed that Bai Xiao held an important position in the old man’s heart.
Yu Dabo was left with no room for argument by his younger brother’s words. "Fine, Second Brother, since you won’t listen to us, we’ll leave. From now on, we absolutely won’t step through your door. Your family’s threshold is too high for us to reach! All of you, listen carefully—rely on yourselves in the future. Stop thinking you can depend on others. Isn’t there an old saying? ’Lean on a mountain, and it will crumble; lean on a river, and it will run dry.’ Now, get out of here!" He stood up to leave.
The entire family of Yu Dabo left.
The old man Yu sank heavily into his chair.
"What a bunch of hypocritical, pretentious, and stubborn Yu family members. Xiao, come here and sit by your grandfather. You’ve been wronged today."
Bai Xiao let go of An Zhiyuan and walked over to the old man. She crouched by his side and held his hand.
"Grandpa, honestly, this doesn’t matter to me at all. If we’re being serious, they and I aren’t even family in any meaningful sense. As long as I’m good to Grandma and Grandpa, that’s enough. What do the others have to do with me? Whatever they say, I won’t care. If I really cared about what others said, then I wouldn’t have been able to survive back in Liupan Village.
I’ve known for a long time that living is about staying true to yourself, living with a clear conscience. As long as I remain at peace in my heart, I can withstand any storm, no matter where it blows." Bai Xiao genuinely didn’t care. If she did, how could she have lived to this point?
