“I can choose not to move out of this house too,” Su Wanwan said slowly, “After all, Grandpa will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow and he will be coming home to rest and recuperate. There will be a lot of guests coming over to visit him in the next few days. There will be people who are coming in and out of this house, so I will have to trouble some people to rein it in a little over the next few days. If you really cannot control your urges, the both of you can just get a room at a hotel. After all, you are already over seventeen now and considered an adult. You don’t have to continue being in a secret relationship, and don’t need to worry about getting caught by reporters anymore.”
There was some obvious insinuation in Su Wanwan’s remarks, and everyone’s expressions changed.
Su Yanyan was filled with rage, but since Xing Yuyun was sitting next to her, she could not retaliate or act aggressively. The only thing she could do was pout and cry out, “Dad, look at her! She’s simply too much!”
Su Yuntang stared angrily at Su Wanwan. He felt as though his blood pressure had risen to its highest point.
First, she wanted one hundred and seventy thousand yuan. Then, she mentioned being seventeen years old.
She said that she had wanted to move out of the house, but after that, she immediately brough Su Xueqin up to pressure him!
What kind of evil had he committed in his past life that such a vile offspring would exist to torture him?
“Wanwan really likes to make jokes.” Jiang Yi tried to lighten the atmosphere and calm everyone down. “Since Dad will be discharged from the hospital tomorrow, you should tidy up his room, Aunty Yang.”
“Aunty Yang, I will have to trouble you to help me clean up my room too.” Su Wanwan took advantage of this opportunity to say, “Please help me move my study table out to the balcony because I will be reporting to Nanchang University in September.”
“Reporting to Nanchang University? What do you mean by that?” Su Yanyan demanded.
“Oh, right! I forgot to tell all of you.” Su Wanwan smiled before she said, “I am not returning to Los Angeles anymore. Grandpa has already spoken to Grandpa Chu. After the school term begins, I will be going to Nanchang University to do my third year.”
“What?!” Su Yanyan stood up in shock, sending her chair back with an unpleasant screeching noise.
Nanchang University was the prestige of Nanchang. It was the top university with the greatest talents in the country, and the best university in the eyes of many students.
Su Yanyan had to hire many gold medal teachers to give her extra classes and help so that she could pass the entry requirement test with the lowest score, but now, Su Wanwan was actually transferring over to Nanchang University just like that?
What was even more ironic was the fact that Su Wanwan would be starting classes in her third year. Wouldn’t that mean that Su Wanwan was going to be her senior then?
It had been difficult to convince Su Yuntang to transfer Su Wanwan to a boarding school back then, but now she would actually have to attend the same university as her and see her regularly!
How could she possibly tolerate this?!
Jiang Yi was also shocked. She knew that Su Xueqin loved Su Wanwan dearly, but she never expected him to do this.
Su Xueqin who had always been very upright had actually approached the Chu family just to get this done for Su Wanwan?

The dinner ended with a bad atmosphere.
Su Yanyan felt so wronged that she said she had no appetite anymore before crying and running upstairs.
Jiang Yi wanted Xing Yuyun to go upstairs to accompany her, but Xing Yuyun stood up unexpectedly.
“Wanwan, follow me to the balcony. I have something to say to you.”
The expression on Jiang Yi’s face changed slightly when she heard that.
Su Wanwan raised her brows slightly before saying, “Brother-in-law, what do you have to say to me that you can’t say here?”
“Yuyun,” Su Yuntang said warningly.
Xing Yuyun suppressed his unhappiness as he explained, “Uncle, don’t worry. I just want to tell Wanwan about everything between Yanyan and I clearly-”
“I don’t want to know anything about your messy relationship. Besides, this is the Su family villa and Su Yanyan is crying upstairs. At a time like this, do you think that it is appropriate for her sister and brother-in-law to be going to the balcony to spend time alone?” As Su Wanwan spoke, she put down her utensils and slowly poured some red wine into her wine glass. She had a blank look on her face as she asked, “Dad, don’t you agree with me?”
After glaring at Su Wanwan, Su Yuntang calmed down a little as he said, “Yuyun, you don’t have to worry about that. I have already made things clear with your grandfather, and your engagement to Su Yanyan will proceed as scheduled on the 20th of next month.”
Xing Yuyun stood there, feeling a little frustrated. After a long time, he finally replied, “Okay.”
