Su Chen jumped even higher, clutching his head, his whole body twisting and swaying as he let out a loud, hoarse scream.

"Ahhhhhhh!"

"What do you want?! What exactly do you want?!"

"You refuse to cut ties with me!"

"And if I stay in the Su Family, you'll still look down on me!"

"You're trying to drive me to my death, aren't you?!"

"Fine, fine!"

"Come on, come on, let's die together!"

"None of us should live! Come die!"

As he spoke, Su Chen lay down on the floor, his limbs spread flat and his entire body motionless. Only his eyes kept moving, glaring resentfully at Su Zhenxing, then Liu Yanran, then Su Lili, Su Qiqi, and Su Mu as he growled in a low voice.

"Come on, come die! Let's die together!"

"Since you won't let me live well, then let's die together!"

"Why aren't you coming over?!"

"Are you waiting for me to send you to your deaths?"

"Ah, come over, come on, let's die together!"

The Su Family members had only just relaxed after seeing Su Chen return to normal, but their hearts immediately leaped into their throats again.

Su Chen's posture was exactly like Su Grandmother's just now—except one was lying down while the other had been standing!

The feeling of being controlled by the dead Su Grandmother instantly returned to every member of the Su Family.

The Su Family members went cold all over and began shrinking back again.

Suppressing the fear in his heart, Su Zhenxing walked over to Su Chen with a fawning smile and grabbed his hand, trying to pull him up.

He couldn't let Su Chen keep lying there like this!

Good heavens! This was terrifying!

You want me to get up, so I should get up?!

Su Chen slapped Su Zhenxing's hand away, then continued lying spread-eagled, his body stiff as he glared resentfully at Su Zhenxing and growled in a low voice.

"Why are you pulling me?!"

"Die, let's die together!"

"Don't want to die? If you don't want to die, I'll help you! I'll help all of you!"

Looking at his hand, now bruised blue from Su Chen's blow, Su Zhenxing had no intention of getting angry. He continued to placate Su Chen fawningly.

He absolutely couldn't let Su Chen keep talking about death!

He had only just sent off his mother, who had been dead for thirteen years!

And now Su Chen wanted to drag the entire Su Family underground to follow his mother!

It was too terrifying!

He had to soothe Su Chen quickly!

"Su Chen, don't get so worked up!"

"We're family. How can we cut ties?!"

"We definitely can't cut ties!"

"And as for what you said about people looking down on you, that never happened!"

"Who would dare look down on you? You're the only male descendant of the Su Family with Su Family blood running through your veins. You're the Su Family's greatest treasure! Who would dare look down on you?!"

As he spoke, Su Zhenxing frowned and glared furiously at the rest of the Su Family, roaring at them.

"Who among you dares look down on Su Chen?!"

"Hm?!"

"Who among you dares look down on Su Chen?"

"Su Chen is more precious than all of you put together!"

"Who was it?! Who exactly dared look down on Su Chen?!"

Liu Yanran quickly understood what Su Zhenxing meant.

Right, right, soothe Su Chen first!

They couldn't let Su Chen keep going mad!

What if Su Chen really lost his mind and dragged her down to join that vicious mother-in-law of his underground?!

Liu Yanran immediately got to her feet, smoothed down her disheveled hair, and walked gently to Su Zhenxing's side. She crouched beside Su Chen and spoke to him softly.

"That's right, Su Chen. Your Dad is right!"

"Su Chen, you're the Su Family's greatest treasure. Who would dare look down on you?"

"Su Chen, you must have misunderstood!"

Then Liu Yanran looked at Su Lili, Su Qiqi, and Su Mu, blinking at them.

"Did any of you look down on Su Chen?"

"Whoever dares look down on Su Chen, I'll teach them a lesson. I'll even cut off their allowance."

The three perfectly intelligent siblings, Su Lili and the others, quickly echoed Liu Yanran's words.

"No! No!"

"No one looks down on Su Chen!"

"I've never looked down on Su Chen! Su Chen is my biological younger brother, born to the same parents!"

"Su Chen is my brother. How could I possibly look down on him?! That would make me worse than an animal!"

Su Zhenxing was very satisfied with everyone's reactions.

That was more like it—soothe Su Chen first!

Otherwise, Su Chen was either going to summon his mother, who had been dead for thirteen years, or drag all of them down to follow her. It was terrifying. Who could take that?!

Su Chen said nothing. His motionless eyes merely kept sweeping over every Su Family member's expression.

These Su Family members, who used to always look at him sideways, refuse to meet his eyes, or glare at him—

Now, every one of them looked at him with ingratiating smiles in their eyes.

See? The world was just this pathetic!

When the world kissed you with pain, all you had to do was return it with madness.

Then the world would behave itself.

But Su Chen was not about to let this matter end so easily.

Otherwise, wouldn't that be letting off these enemies far too easily—the ones who had looked down on him, caused him to be kidnapped as a child, and left him to die in depression after growing up?!

Su Chen raised an arm, pointed at Su Lili, and roared.

"Just now, Su Lili clearly said I would embarrass myself at the Business Gathering!"

"Su Lili said it!"

Su Zhenxing rushed before Su Lili in a single stride, raised his hand and slapped her, then backhanded her with another slap. After several slaps in a row—

Her face, already swollen and shining from being beaten by Su Chen while he pretended to be Su Grandmother, immediately began to bleed.

Su Lili lowered her head, and venomous resentment seeped into her eyes as she stared at the floor.

However, having been frightened by the dead Su Grandmother, Su Lili did not dare resist for the moment, afraid she might summon Su Grandmother again.

"Su Lili, you actually dared look down on Su Chen?!"

"Su Chen is a male descendant of the Su Family. He's far more precious than a girl like you!"

"And you still dared look down on Su Chen!"

"Dad, I won't do it again. I only said the wrong thing just now. I wouldn't dare look down on Su Chen."

Su Lili kept her head lowered, afraid Su Chen would see the resentment in her eyes, and spoke in a low voice.

Su Zhenxing nodded in satisfaction, then turned and returned to Su Chen's side, smiling fawningly at him.

"Su Chen, look, I taught your Eldest Sister a lesson for you."

"Your Eldest Sister won't dare look down on you."

"No one in the Su Family dares look down on you."

"Su Chen, you can get up now, right?"

Su Chen remained completely unmoved, still sprawled motionlessly on the floor.

This was far from over!

Su Chen immediately pointed at Su Qiqi again, just as he was about to roar.

Su Qiqi immediately began slapping herself across the mouth again, crying as she apologized to Su Chen between slaps.

"Su Chen, I'm sorry. I was wrong, I was wrong."

"I shouldn't have framed you before, and I especially shouldn't have punished you every so often."

"I was wrong, I was wrong. I'll never dare look down on you again, Su Chen."

"Whoever dares look down on you, Su Chen, is making an enemy of me!"

Su Zhenxing smiled at Su Qiqi and nodded.

His second daughter had no other strengths, but she was especially good at recognizing the situation.

Su Zhenxing turned back and continued coaxing Su Chen in a gentle voice.

"Su Chen, look. Who else dares look down on you?"

"Tell me, and I'll teach them a lesson for you."

"Anyone who dares look down on our Su Chen—I'll beat them to death!"
