Chapter 1629: I’ve never seen anyone more cold-hearted than her
Translator: 549690339
Arthur’s expression was sad, and he didn’t say anything.
His grandmother was really the most powerful. When he was young, his grandfather had been very obedient to his grandmother. In modern terms, she was really worshipped as a goddess.
However, when he died, his grandmother was sleeping.
Everyone in the family knew that no one was allowed to disturb his grandmother when she was sleeping. This was an absolute rule.
His grandmother took care of her skin very seriously. To her, nothing was more beneficial to the recovery of her skin than sleep.
So ... When his grandmother was lying on the hospital bed, dying and wanted to see his goddess for the last time, his father had mustered the courage to come home and knock on his grandmother’s door, telling her that his father was dying and wanted to see her one last time.
It was a pity ... What she got in return was not a visit to the hospital, but a slap.
Arthur had gone with his father. He would always remember his grandmother’s disdainful, cold, and indifferent look. She said,””So what if he’s dead? what’s the big deal? how many times have I told you not to disturb me when I’m sleeping? you woke me up for such a small matter. Do you think you’re old enough that I can’t deal with you?”
Yes, this was his grandmother’s original words. Arthur remembered them clearly.
As he grew up, Arthur had met many cold and heartless people, but in his heart, no one could surpass his grandmother.
To Arthur and his parents, his grandmother was a nightmare that they couldn’t forget.
Even after her death, the nightmare at home still existed.
“I don’t know much about my grandmother,” Arthur said calmly.”Ask away. If I know, I’ll tell you everything.”
“What do you know about what happened 40 years ago?” Xia Anlan asked.
Arthur shook his head.”Actually, I’m not sure how many years ago it was because I didn’t say anything at that time. My grandmother must have some grudges with the Xia family, but I don’t know anyone, so I don’t know where to start. Why don’t you tell me? I’ll fill you in if I can.”
Xia Anlan nodded.”That’s right. You didn’t say anything at that time. My sister, who is qingsi’s mother, was still a little girl. She had just turned five ...”
Xia Anlan took out two photos of qingsi’s mother. One was when she was young, and the other was when she had grown up.
“Look, she and qingsi, don’t they look very similar?”
Arthur looked at the black and white film of qingsi’s mother and was surprised.””Yeah, they really look alike ...”
Xia Anlan sighed.”Actually, this matter is very messy. I’m not sure when I should start. Let’s start from before your grandmother went to Country M.”
” 60 years ago, when my grandfather was still alive and I had not spoken, the Xia and Zhou families were both the most prominent families in Chengdu. That was when the major families had just risen. They all wanted to climb up and get closer to the center of power. It was useless to say too much. To put it simply, it was a family dispute. In the end, my grandfather defeated the Zhou family. The Zhou family suffered a crushing defeat. Because of some reasons that could not be announced publicly, many people in the Zhou family were secretly executed. These people were the backbone of the Zhou family. Once they fell, the Zhou family was really finished. Your grandma was the only survivor of the Zhou family. At that time, she was in her youth and was admiring shaoai. The two families even promised to marry her to my father. Family and personal grudges were intertwined, and love turned into hatred. She hated the Xia family and every single person in the Xia family.”
