Boom!
The entire audience exploded in disbelief!
"What, marry Ye Wudao?"
"And not even asking for a dowry!"
"What, what is going on here?"
In contrast, Su Yueli, with her stunningly beautiful melon-seed-shaped face, showed a hint of youthful shyness as she lowered her head and fiddled with the hem of her dress.
"Old man Su, that's quite honorable of you!" Ye Wudao gave a thumbs up.
Xu Wenbin's mind buzzed as if struck by a hammer, almost causing him to faint, and he knelt on the ground like a clown.
"No, it can't be..."
Xu Wenbin raised his head and stared at Old Master Su with a murderous gaze; "Ahh, Old Su, you, you dared to marry my beloved Yueli to that stinky brat. I, I will make your Su family and that surnamed Ye pay a most painful price!"
Old Master Su coughed and waved his hand; "Take Xu family's betrothal gifts back the way they came, someone see our guest out!"
The way Xu Wenbin came in was as bright as how disgracefully he left.
As the banquet dissipated, the entire Su family was shrouded in gloom.
"Old fool, have you gone senile? To actually provoke the Xu family for some brat, do you want to push our Su family into the fire pit?" Old Lady Su cursed bitterly.
"It's over, it's all over, having offended the Xu family, our Su family is completely doomed!" The people of the Su family exhibited their ugliest sides.
Old Master Su was just about to speak when suddenly everything went dark, and he collapsed into his chair.
"Grandpa!" Su Yueli ran over anxiously.
"Good riddance if the old man dies!"
"What's the point of coming back to life, causing such a big disaster, and messing up our good days of Su family." The others in the Su family looked on with cold eyes.
"I'll take a look!" Ye Wudao walked over, with Su Yueli's instinctive trust in him.
"Mr. Ye, how is my grandfather?" Su Yueli asked worriedly.
After checking for a moment, Ye Wudao, squinting his eyes, said, "The poison has invaded his viscera; now it's too late even if we send him to the hospital."
What?
Su Yueli's expression tensed to the extreme.
"However, this is a small issue for me!" Ye Wudao took out a treasure box, which contained nine dragon-patterned silver needles, the greatly reputed Heavenly Walk Nine Needles.
Ye Wudao took two needles out and applied the Five Viscera Poison Expulsion Technique.
"Is this going to work, trying to save the old man with just two broken needles?"
"Just showing off!" some members of the Su family commented sarcastically.
Ye Wudao sneered inwardly; these Heavenly Walk Nine Needles were of great repute, able to bring the dying back to life and cure festering bones, a sacred object in the medical world, coveted even in the Kunlun Treasure Pavilion.
If it weren't for his relationship with Su Yueli, he wouldn't have been willing to use the Heavenly Walk Nine Needles!
"If you don't understand, shut your mouth, or I'll stick these needles in your tongues!" Ye Wudao retorted, and the room fell silent as if engulfed by a cold winter.
The Su family members all held a certain wariness towards Ye Wudao, after all, this brat was capable of doing anything against heaven.
A few moments later, Old Master Su began coughing violently, spitting out the black blood from his mouth, and after emptying it, his clouded eyes regained their clarity.
"I'm not dead?" Old Master Su's eyes were filled with shock.
"Grandpa, it was Mr. Ye who saved you!" Su Yueli said excitedly.
What?
Old Master Su's gaze turned toward Ye Wudao, his expression a mix of gratitude and newfound closeness.
"Mr. Ye saved my life twice; I really can't repay you enough!"
Ye Wudao put the needles away and smiled, "Haven't you given Yueli to me as a wife?"
"Hahaha!" Old Master Su laughed heartily upon hearing this.
Off to the side, Old Lady Su said angrily, "I don't agree! How is this brat better than Young Master Xu? Can he offer tens of millions for the bride price, or does he have a background as deep as the Xu family?"
Smack!
Old Master Su slapped Old Lady Su; "Woman's foolish talk!"
"Ah, you old thing, how dare you hit me? I won't live anymore!" Old Lady Su was flabbergasted and started making a scene.
"Mom!"
"Grandma!" A whole bunch of people from the Su family gathered around.
"If you want to die, then go ahead. Do you think I, Su Tiesheng, lie on my death bed unaware of the filth you all do behind my back? I'm telling you, I, Su Tiesheng, not only don't want anything for marrying off my granddaughter, but I will also give all of my property to this young couple as a gift!"
Looking kindly at Ye Wudao and Su Yueli, Su Tiesheng said, "Grandpa announces today, I am giving all of my properties to you two!"
Boom!
The news caused a huge uproar!
Upon hearing this, Old Lady Su fainted on the spot.
"Old man Su, I don't need it; just give your property to my wife, I prefer living off a woman!" Ye Wudao said, hands in his pockets.
"You, what on earth are you talking about?" Su Yueli's pretty face blushed bright red.
"Haha, then Mr. Ye, keep the keys!" Su Tiesheng took a key out from his pocket.
"This is?"
"This is the key to a standalone villa at South Lake Villas worth thirty million, no less valuable than what the Xu family offered!" Su Tiesheng said.
Hiss!
All the others in the room were filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred as they stared at Ye Wudao!
Why him?
Why does this poor kid who popped up from nowhere get to win the Su family's fortune, get the girl, and gain the most expensive villa at South Lake just for saving the old man?
"I just happen to be needing a place to live, so thanks, Old Man Su!" Ye Wudao nonchalantly pocketed the keys.
"Yueli!" Old Master Su's gaze turned gently to Su Yueli; "You go off to the board meeting today to take over the Su family business, and tonight, move to South Lake and live with Mr. Ye, start cultivating a married couple's affection."
What?
Su Yueli was stunned!
