Since they refused to give up on this idea, Liang Xinyi was not afraid of falling out with them.

Rather than letting them control her and make her marry Han Zhongteng, she might as well take a gamble. After all, she did not have any favors to ask of the Su family now. If she really married Han Yaotian, she would be the wife of the head of the Han family.

Just like what Su Ximan had said, a starving camel was still bigger than a horse. Perhaps in the future, the Han family would be able to rise from the ashes. Marrying Han Yaotian, the heir, was better than marrying Han Zhongteng, the devil.

“What have we gotten? When something happened, did the Su family ever protect us? You treated us like outsiders, so what right do you have to use me to pave the way for your Su family?”

Su Ximan sneered and turned to look at Third Uncle Su, who had remained silent on the sofa. “If you don’t know what benefits the Su family has given you, you can ask Third Uncle. Since you don’t care about them, we can take them back.”

Su Ximan was indirectly Su Donglin’s spokesperson. The moment she opened her mouth, Su Zongping immediately looked up and gave Su Ximan an embarrassed look. He coldly turned his head and glared at Liang Xinyi, who obviously did not know what was good for her. He frowned and warned her, “Shut up! Do you know what you are saying?”

“Uncle! If even you won’t help me, you can choose not to speak.”

Initially, Liang Xinyi had not expected Su Zongping to help her, but if he did not say anything about today’s matter, then she could not hope for a reversal.

“D*mn girl, how can you say that? Shut up!” Chen Lixue shivered when she heard that. She had to rely on Su Zongping now. If she offended him, the three of them would be out in the world alone.

“Third Uncle, it seems as if you didn’t tell her about it. No wonder she doesn’t know the immensity of what we have done for her.”

Liang Xinyi suddenly turned around and looked at Su Zongping in confusion. “Uncle, what are you hiding from us?”

Su Ximan did not look like she was joking. She kept saying that they had given them benefits, but she had not gotten any.

Su Ximan slowly took a sip of the cold coffee and chuckled as she looked at Liang Xinyi. “Liang Xinyi, you can’t be thinking that with your mother’s status, she had the ability to enter the Su family, right? I’m not afraid to tell you that my Third Aunt who passed away came from the Jiang family, a branch of the Jiang family, one of the three noble families. Even if it was only a branch, it’s still a noble family. Third Uncle married someone else not long after Third Aunt passed away, and the person he married was an old woman with no family background or status. Isn’t this clearly slapping the Jiang family’s face? Do you think that with the Jiang family’s status in Jingdu, they could swallow this insult?”

“W…what do you mean?” Liang Xinyi’s heart skipped a beat. She had a bad feeling about this.

“The Jiang family has repeatedly come knocking on our doors, and we have been the ones blocking them for you. Since you don’t appreciate our kindness, then fine. From today onward, I will inform the Jiang family members that we are no longer protecting you. We will not interfere with whatever they want to do.”

“No! That’s impossible! What has this got to do with my mother and me? Even if they want to cause trouble, they should be looking for your family. Why would they come looking for us?”

“The Su family is one of the big four wealthiest families, after all. The Jiang family won’t fall out with us on the surface, but that doesn’t mean that they can’t make trouble with the three of you. If you don’t believe me, then give it a try.”

Su Ximan put down her coffee cup casually, as if the drama had nothing to do with her. “You can think about the marriage properly. There is still a lot of time. As for the Jiang family, the Su family will no longer protect you from today onward. Liang Xinyi, you have to be mentally prepared. I, Su Ximan, am not a marketplace. There is no bargaining here. When the time comes, even if you regret it, no one will help you.”

While Liang Xinyi was still hesitating and struggling, Su Zongping was already extremely anxious. He knew very clearly about the Jiang family’s methods. Even if they wanted to lay their hands on Chen Lixue, they could definitely implicate him. He did not want to die.
