Standing Next To You-Chapter 174: It was Bei Sangyun

Head Master Fei turned silent. His butler made sense. He closed his eyes in frustration.

It hurt his pride that he had to let this go for the sake of being partial with his other grandchildren.

"Sigh. I should be able to do whatever I wanted now that I reached this age with a ton of wealth in my name. But now I am worried that everything will crumble because I favor one of my grandsons. What a dilemma."

"Head Master, I know you are worried about the young master. But I think you can trust him. He is still the bright genius kid who outsmarted you when he was only five years old," Butler Zhao reminded.

Butler Zhao’s reminder made Head Master Fei remember the time when Fei Chuan was only five years old. That little kid dared to play against him and managed to win.

Right. That kid had a bright mind. He would surely succeed in whatever he set his sights on. Although his countenance had changed, Head Master Fei believed that the little child back then was still there somewhere inside that gloomy boy.

"Sigh. It breaks my heart to just watch him endure the humiliation. But, as you said, I have to trust him. I hope he did not grow foolish but smart like you thought."

Head Master sighed deeply. Fine. He’ll trust that child one more time.

Two days. He was just asking for two days. If his situation still got worse in that school, no matter how Fei Chuan rejected it, he would force him to transfer to another school. Preferably an overseas school where he was away from the prying eyes of his greedy relatives.

"Just keep track of that Simon family and the Lin family. If you find a chance, beat them down."

"Yes, Head Master."

...

In the guest building of the Lin mansion,

Mr. Simon hurriedly ran to Richard’s room as soon as he arrived at the Lin mansion. When he saw Richard lying on the bed with bandages all over his face, Mr. Simon’s eyes turned red.

"Who dared to make the heir of the Simon family like this?!" His roar echoed throughout the room.

Sophia, who had been dispirited since the beginning, seemed to find a boat on a sinking island. "Grandpa! Where have you been?" She ran to Mr. Simon and cried aggrievedly.

Richard was woken up by the noise and slowly rose from the bed. "..Grand...pa." He had trouble talking and could only enunciate words slowly.

Mr. Simon’s heart ached looking at his aggrieved grandchildren. The children he treasured and spoiled so much were crying while the other had been beaten up to the point he was unrecognizable.

"I am sorry. I was late. Your grandfather will surely make the person responsible for this to pay." Mr. Simon said with determination.

He had heard what happened to his grandson while he was on his way home from his wife’s maternal family. Because of the trouble abroad, Mr. Simon decided to quickly finish his business here so he could get back to their home country soon and personally handle the matter.

His son, Richard’s father, was having difficulty in containing the other families who had been asking for his grandson. They had to return sooner than planned, so Mr. Simon was busy wrapping up his businesses here.

But who could have thought that his grandson would be beaten up like this while he was gone? His grandson had never fought anyone before! Nor he suffered such beating like this!

"Tell me, son. Who did this to you?"

"It’s that bitch, Bei Sangyun, grandpa!" It was Sophia who answered. She cried aggrievedly as she recounted the horrifying events that followed after Fei Chuan beat Richard.

"That bitch’s lackey carried my brother, whom they had beaten up, and left him in the gym while everyone looked at him. Not only did that bitch order her lackey to beat up Richard, but she also insulted and humiliated him!"

Richard was ashamed of what happened. He did not want to recall it. He glared at Sophia, "S-shut up!"

Mr. Simon’s heart was filled with fury. "Is this the truth?"

Sophia nodded, "Yes, grandpa. That bitch is very cruel and shrewd."

Mr. Simon wanted to immediately tear apart the person responsible for making his grandson this way, but he did not expect it was the granddaughter of his good friend. He took a deep breath to calm down.

If it was other people, Mr. Simon would immediately send someone to bring that person to him. But he can’t do that to his good friend’s granddaughter. He needed a valid reason so he could face Old Lin.

"How did this happen? Why did she suddenly do this to you?"

Richard’s eyes wavered. He stuttered, "...S-she..she tricked me into meeting up. I thought she wanted to confess her feelings. She has been very intimate with me from the start, so I thought she liked me...But s-she...she suddenly screamed and acted as if I have been violating her. Her lackey suddenly came in, and that bastard Fei Chuan started to beat me up without asking me why!"

Richard became more confident as he spewed lies after lies.

Sophia bit her lips. She did not want Fei Chuan to be dragged into this. But it seemed like she had no other choice. As long as that bitch got punished, Sophia would be satisfied.

"Fei Chuan?" Mr. Simon’s eyes narrowed. He could not touch his good old friend’s granddaughter, but he could definitely make that Fei Chuan pay.

Mr. Simon finally found an outlet to vent his anger. He ordered his assistant, "Look for this Fei Chuan and send him here! I want that bastard to crawl as he asks forgiveness from my grandson!"

Mr. Simon’s eyes had a ruthless look on his face, "But before you bring him, make sure to make a mess out of him."

Whoever touched his grandchildren would have to pay a huge price!
