After her identity was stolen, she lived in the short-lived villain's phone.

Chapter 406 Su Huan's Dissatisfaction

Chi Yu never expected that Old Madam Su would be so straightforward and protective of her own.

Instead of returning the bracelet, she readily accepted it with a smile, saying, "Thank you, Grandma, I'll take this bracelet."

Upon hearing this, Grandma Su was immediately delighted: "That's more like it!"

Standing behind her mother, Su Huan had almost lost control of her facial expression when the old lady Su gave her the bracelet. Now, seeing that Chi Yu had actually accepted the bracelet, her delicate face contorted into a grimace for a moment.

She couldn't hold back any longer. Pushing past her mother, she squeezed in front of Grandma Su and protested, "Grandma, you don't love me anymore after Sister Yu Yu came back!"

"Huanhuan!" Aunt Su's expression changed when she saw Su Huan's actions.

Su Huan, however, seemed not to hear her mother's voice and continued to cling to the old lady, looking aggrieved: "I didn't say anything wrong. Grandma, I begged for this bracelet so many times before, but you wouldn't give it to me. Now that Sister Yuyu is back, you gave the bracelet to her."

“These belong to your grandmother. She can give them to whomever she wants!” Aunt Su, whose full name was Qin Yuqin, reached out to pull her daughter along while looking awkwardly at Chi Yu. “Yu Yu, I’m sorry, we’ve spoiled this girl…”

Chi Yu smiled but remained silent.

Qin Yuqin seemed to be trying to pull Su Huan away, but in reality, she didn't use any force at all.

If she really wanted to stop Su Huan, she wouldn't have waited until Su Huan finished speaking before speaking herself.

Chi Yu saw it all clearly, but remained silent.

Chi Yu was well aware that she had only just returned and had not yet truly integrated into this large family. Moreover, with so many elders standing here, she, as a young junior, did not need to be too flamboyant.

As Chi Yu had predicted, the moment the thought crossed her mind, Old Madam Su spoke up: "You silly girl, what nonsense are you talking about? You are all my granddaughters, and you all hold the same place in my heart."

Before Chi Yu returned, the Su family was large but had a male-dominated population, with many boys but only one girl, Su Huan.

The Su family did not have the traditional concept of favoring sons over daughters. Naturally, Su Huan, as the only girl in the younger generation, was pampered from childhood to adulthood. It is no exaggeration to say that she was the apple of the Su family's eye.

Otherwise, Su Huan wouldn't have dared to repeatedly ask Old Madam Su for her bracelet.

The old lady naturally doted on Su Huan. Although she hadn't given Su Huan the bracelet before, she hadn't been stingy with other valuable items, and Su Huan had received a lot of benefits from her.

Seeing Su Huan suddenly appear, Grandma Su was not displeased at all. Instead, she gently stroked Su Huan's hair.

Hearing Grandma Su's words, Su Huan was deeply moved and reached out to hug her: "Waaah, Grandma, I thought you only liked my sister and not me anymore. I was so scared when I saw you almost fall. I was so scared that my heart almost stopped. I'm so glad you're okay."

Grandma Su comforted her, "It's alright, it's alright, don't be afraid."

Chi Yu remained unmoved as he watched this scene unfold.

Suddenly, her hand, which was hanging by her side, was gently taken. Chi Yu turned her head and saw Su's mother standing beside her at some point.

Su's mother wasn't stupid. Su Huan suddenly appeared in front of the old lady Su, making her presence known and saying such ambiguous things. The old lady Su and others probably thought that Su Huan was just a little girl with a childish mind, unable to bear the loss of her previous exclusive favor, so she felt a little insecure.

However, Su's mother keenly sensed from her words that her little niece seemed to have grown up and begun to have her own little schemes by the time she knew about it.

Su's mother used to like Su Huan very much, and during every New Year and holiday, the generous red envelopes she gave to her cousins ​​were always the most generous of all.

But now, she only cares about her daughter.

She was afraid that Chi Yu would be unhappy if she saw this scene.

However, Su's mother was overthinking it. Chi Yu smiled slightly at Su's mother, his expression indifferent.

Chi Yu knew that she had just returned. Although Grandma Su liked her, Su Huan was the one Grandma Su had watched grow up from childhood. It was only natural for Grandma Su to feel sorry for Su Huan.

Besides, to be honest, Chi Yu didn't care who Grandma Su liked.

Whether other members of the Su family like her or not is not important to Chi Yu.

These are just relatives anyway, they won't affect her life.

If we get along well, we should keep in touch more often.

If you don't like each other, then be familiar strangers. Anyway, you'll only see each other during holidays.

……

It's impossible for people to stand at the elevator door forever.

Finally, Su Huan was led by Grandma Su, and everyone took the elevator downstairs together.

Su Yu'an and Su Chengyan took the stairs and stood outside the hotel waiting early.

The Su family has good genes. Not only was Su's father good-looking, but the younger generation has also surpassed him, with each member tall and slender, good-looking, and outstanding in temperament.

Su Chao stood sideways, looking back at the hotel lobby with obvious longing: "Why aren't they coming down yet?"

Almost as soon as he finished speaking, the figures of Old Madam Su and the others came into view.

"Ah, finally down."

Su Chao breathed a sigh of relief.

However, just as Grandma Su and the others were about to come out, Su Chao couldn't help but take a few steps inside and ask, "Grandma, why did you stay upstairs for so long?"

They were practically melting from standing in the hotel entrance.

"There was a little accident just now, I almost fell to the ground, but luckily Yu Yu caught me," Grandma Su said with a smile.

She was happy to have survived the ordeal, but she startled Su Chao and the others: "Huh?"

Su Chengyan asked with concern, "Did Grandma fall?"

"No. Your sister caught her." This time, it was Aunt Su's second aunt, Qin Yuqin, who answered. She smiled and said, "Grandma really went to great lengths to thank your sister. She took off the bracelet she had worn for so many years and gave it to your sister."

Su Muyang was dumbfounded: "Huh?"

"What do you mean 'oh'? The bracelet is on your sister's wrist. Look how pretty it is on her," Qin Yuqin said again.

Her voice was loud, and not only Su Chengyan and Su Muyang, but also Su Chao, Su Yu'an and others heard it.

Everyone looked at Chi Yu's wrist and, sure enough, saw the familiar bracelet on her wrist.

Su's mother frowned almost imperceptibly. Just as she was about to speak, Su Chengyan stepped forward and asked the old lady with concern, "Grandma, how are you feeling right now? Let me take you to the hospital for a check-up." His seemingly unintentional step conveniently shielded Chi Yu to his side, blocking the younger generation's view of her.

Moreover, because of his question, everyone realized what was going on and quickly looked at Grandma Su with concern.

"It's nothing, it's just an old ailment," Grandma Su waved her hand.

Grandma Su disliked going to the hospital and even strongly resisted it.

But knowing her eldest grandson's decisive nature, and fearing that Su Chengyan might actually drive her to the hospital, the old lady waved her hand and walked away from Su Chengyan down the steps towards Su Yu'an's car.

Seeing this, everyone quickly followed, and after watching Grandma Su get into the car safely, everyone returned to their own cars.

As soon as she got in the car, Su Huan could no longer contain her anger and said with a displeased expression, "Mom! What do we do now? Grandma actually gave the bracelet directly to Chi Yu!"

Her voice was sharp and sudden, startling Su Chao, who was driving.

Su Chao's hand trembled, and the car almost drifted away.

However, Su Chao was even more afraid that Su Huan's words would be heard by the other relatives in the cars in front and behind. After calming himself down, Su Chao quickly rolled up all four car windows to mute them.

Su Chao was the one who knew his older sister's bad temper best.

From a young age, Su Huan was particularly good at disguising herself. Outsiders thought she was clever and cute, but only Su Chao, who had been carrying the blame for twenty years, knew what kind of person his older sister really was.

To outsiders, Su Huan is a lively, sweet-talking, and well-behaved girl. Even when she throws a tantrum, it's always with an air of arrogance and spoiled pride. But in reality, her true personality is anything but pleasant, especially in front of her family. She never gives them a kind look, something Su Chao has long since become accustomed to.

In the past, Su Chao would try to change Su Huan's thoughts and temper, but now... he has given up. No matter how much trouble Su Huan causes at home, as long as he doesn't cause trouble outside, it's fine.

However, to Su Chao's surprise, his usually virtuous and generous mother actually echoed Su Huan's words this time:

"What else can we do? Who knows what your grandma was thinking? That bracelet was her only one, her most treasured possession, and she just gave it away like that!" Qin Yuqin felt more and more heartbroken, gritting her teeth as she said, "It's such a waste of all the years you've pretended to be good in front of her!"

"Mom, I really love that bracelet! I want it! Can you help me think of a way?" Su Huan said angrily, grabbing Qin Yuqin's arm unwillingly.

That's a genuine antique treasure, unique in both its intrinsic value and its aesthetic appeal.

When the old lady wore the bracelet before, Su Huan always felt that it was hers, even though she asked for it many times but the old lady wouldn't give it to her.

She was the only girl among the younger generation, and the old lady had previously said that the bracelet would be passed down to daughters, not sons.

In Su Huan's mind, that bracelet was already hers! It was only a matter of time before she got it. But now, the bracelet had been given directly to Chi Yu by Old Madam Su!
Su Huan felt increasingly distressed the more she thought about it.

As the only daughter of the Su family, there was nothing she couldn't get from childhood to adulthood.

This time, however, she suffered a severe setback!
And it came from one's own family!

"There's nothing we can do. Your grandmother has already given the bracelet to Chi Yu. Unless she's willing to give it to you, but is that even possible?" Qin Yuqin was also very unwilling. Back then, when the old lady didn't give the bracelet to Su Lanyue as part of her dowry, she was secretly pleased for a long time, thinking that it was saved for Su Huan.

Now it's clear that the old lady left it for Chi Yu!

However, now that the bracelet has been given away by Old Madam Su, they can only keep their dissatisfaction to themselves.

Qin Yuqin calmed herself down and comforted Su Huan, "It's alright, if you gave it to us, you gave it to us."

"No!" Su Huan protested loudly, her voice sharp.

Uncle Su, who had been sitting silently in the passenger seat, frowned, held back for a moment, but couldn't help but scold sharply: "That's enough! Your grandmother said before that the bracelet should be passed down to daughters, not sons. She didn't give it to Lan Yue before, but now that Chi Yu has been found, she's older than you and has suffered more than you. Whether it's because your grandmother feels sorry for her or according to the order of seniority, she should be given to her! Besides, she just saved your grandmother!"

Uncle Su always appeared to be a smiling tiger to outsiders, with a rather honest and kind face, and seemed to be the kind of person with a good temper.

But only his own family knew that Uncle Su was usually not angry, but once he got angry, he was furious, and even Su Huan did not dare to challenge the authority of the head of the family.

After Uncle Su finished speaking, the atmosphere inside the car instantly became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Looking ahead, Su Chao, who was driving intently, sighed silently in his heart.

Sigh, I'm feeling a bit tired.

After spending half a day with her, he actually quite liked his cousin who had been found, and he felt that there was nothing wrong with his grandmother giving the bracelet to his cousin.

Compared to their children who grew up smoothly at home, my younger cousin grew up alone and certainly suffered a lot.

The whole family had seen my cousin's past stories online before, and my mother was quite sorry for her back then. How could it all be because of a bracelet...?

Su Chao couldn't figure it out, so he simply focused on driving.

No one noticed that Su Huan, sitting in the back seat, angrily turned to look out the window, her delicate face filled with resentment and complaints, her eyes shifting from anger to fierce hatred.

She has to get what she sets her sights on.

At this moment, in another car, Su Chengyan was driving, with his parents, Chi Yu, and Su Muyang in tow.

Recalling what Qin Yuqin had deliberately said at the hotel entrance, Su's mother didn't know if she was being too sensitive, but she didn't feel particularly comfortable listening to it.

"After we finish the ancestral worship ceremony the day after tomorrow, let's go back to Beijing together," Su's mother said.

"Huh?" Su Muyang was stunned, and replied, "Not going to play for a few more days?"

Originally, everyone planned that after the ancestral worship ceremony, Su Chengyan and his father would return to Beijing for work, and then Su's mother and Su Muyang would stay in Shuoxi with Chi Yu for a while to familiarize him with the surrounding environment of his hometown.

Anyway, Su's father built a detached villa in Shuoxi, and Su's mother and Chi Yu lived in their own house, which was absolutely comfortable.

With Su Muyang driving and accompanying them on their trips, and other relatives to visit, staying a few more days wouldn't be a problem.

Su Muyang had even already asked his mentor for leave.

Su Chengyan glanced at the mirror, noticed his mother's expression, and asked in a deep voice, "Mom, what happened at the hotel just now?"

He was insightful and perceptive; he had already sensed something from Aunt Su's words when they were at the hotel entrance.

It was just that the occasion wasn't right, so Su Chengyan held back from saying anything.

Su's mother didn't hide anything from her own family and told them what had happened in front of the elevator.
