At this moment, a servant arrived. Yu Yi recognized him as someone from the old master’s household. He said, “The old master requests that the madam and third young master come over.”
Yu Yi was stunned. How did he know that Han Ren had just come to her to speak a few words? It was clear that someone had been keeping an eye on Han Ren and informed the old master as soon as he arrived, knowing he was going to complain.
As for who this person was, there was no need to guess – it was Han Xiao.
While walking, Yu Yi whispered to Xu Han Ren, “Han Ren, the old master calling us over is most likely about the two shops I gave you.”
Xu Han Ren lowered his head and remained silent.
Upon arrival, Yu Yi and Xu Han Ren entered and paid their respects. Yu Yi then asked, “Father-in-law, may I ask…” Before she could finish, the old master said, “Han Ren, take out all the documents. You are not allowed to go to those two shops again.”
Yu Yi and Han Ren, though somewhat prepared, were surprised by the old master’s directness.
Xu Han Ren said nothing and did not move. Yu Yi tried to persuade, “Father-in-law, Han Ren is after all a member of the Xu family. He is intelligent. Your daughter-in-law was thinking…”
The old master snorted heavily, “He is nothing more than an unambitious playboy, indulging in pleasures and lacking motivation. I, Xu Ting, do not want such a grandson.”
Xu Han Ren’s face turned ashen.
However, the old master would not listen to reason and insisted that Han Ren hand over the deed documents.
Xu Han Ren remained silent, took out the shop deeds from his chest, and walked a few steps to hand them to the old master. The old master could not clearly see the text and turned to the person beside him, asking, “Xu Fu, take a look and confirm.”
Xu Fu had been with the old master for many years. The old master trusted him completely. However, Han Ren saw it differently – the old master trusted a servant more than he trusted his own grandson.
Xu Fu glanced at Xu Han Ren, then quickly looked over the deed documents and told the old master, “Third young master’s documents are definitely correct.”
