Shi Guang had arranged to have lunch with her grandma. Even though the latter was already out of the hospital, she did not return to the county yet, as there were still check-ups that she had to undergo. For convenience’s sake, her little auntie and her husband had rented a place at the provincial city.

Her auntie’s husband was a county man whose family had a vineyard back there. He was a particularly diligent man who took great care of the vineyard, reaping in a bountiful harvest every year.

If not for him, things would have been really difficult for Shi Guang’s sister’s hospital fees, Mo Jin’s expenses for studying abroad, and grandma’s medical fees.

After coaxing her grandma to go for an afternoon nap, Shi Guang found her little auntie and her husband chatting in the living room. It was as though they had met with some difficulties as her uncle looked somewhat helpless and infuriated, “This is too much! They had already agreed to it… How can they break the deal halfway!”

Shi Guang looked over at her auntie—the latter’s face was looking rather terrible as well. She thus asked worriedly, “Auntie, uncle, is anything wrong? What happened?”

Not wanting her to worry, both of them smiled as her uncle replied, “There’s nothing wrong. It’s just like the past years where we would meet with some slight hiccups regarding the sales of the grapes. Don’t worry, I can handle it!”

Even though Shi Guang was still a little worried, she did not put too much thought into it and headed over to school… All the way until she received a phone call.

“I heard that the grapes your uncle can’t sell away are all high-end grapes! The most expensive ones among them go for about 100+ yuan per half kilograms. If those grapes were to spoil just like that, I suppose the losses would be tremendous for your uncle!” The woman on the other end sat down on a leather sofa elegantly. Putting her phone on speaker mode, she placed it on the table.

This… Yang Sitong!

Grapes!

Shi Guang instantly thought about how her uncle had mentioned some issues with the sales. Could Yang Sitong be behind it?

“What have you done?”

“Oh? All I did was find a bunch of grapes with better quality that are cheaper to sell to your uncle’s distributors!”

“Shameless, despicable!”

Those high-end grapes were her uncle’s main source of income annually. If those grapes were to spoil, he would not even be able to afford the salary for the workers at his vineyard!

Yang Sitong scoffed out coldly, “And you’re not shameless and despicable for snatching away someone’s fiancé?”

Shi Guang mocked, “Fiancé? Lu Yanchen told me that he had already broken out of the marriage with you before he even got together with me!”

Yang Sitong nearly slapped out at the table, but she held her temper.

A few days ago, when she found out that Lu Yanchen was going to marry Shi Guang, she was livid with thorough rage.

Marriage? He had rejected marrying her, and yet on the other hand, he was marrying this Shi Guang!

She really wanted to rush over and question him, ask him if he had any bit of conscience left in him to treat his life savior in this manner.

However, she calmed down really quickly. She knew that doing that would be pointless; and if she were to continue causing trouble like that, her brother would definitely blame her. For the sake of the Yangs, even her mother wouldn’t side with her anymore.

She heaved in a deep breath of air before curling her lips and threatening, “If those grapes can’t be sold and there are no distributors who would want them, could your uncle’s vineyard continue to exist? Would there be sufficient money for your grandma and sister’s medical fees? If you don’t wish to bring harm to them, don’t carry on with your wishful thinking and marry Lu Yanchen!!”

Shi Guang frowned. “And you’re not afraid that I might tell everything to Lu Yanchen?”

“Afraid?” Yang Sidan reversed the question slowly before looking at her red painted nails idly. “Oh, I’m afraid you WON’T go looking for Lu Yanchen instead. If Lu Yanchen were to make use of the Lu Family’s connections to help you, let’s see how Father Lu will permit him to marry you by then!”

As she said that, she smirked and roared into an arrogant laughter.
