Rebirth and Revenge: The Young Lady is Actually a Top Killer

Zhou Shiyan felt that Zhou Su's question was a bit strange.

But I don’t know what’s wrong.

So he asked in confusion: "Grandpa, I don't quite understand? What do you mean...?"

"Haha~ So you don't like it~?" Zhou Su raised his eyebrows knowingly without explaining to him.

"No! Of course I like you!" Zhou Shiyan was shocked. He couldn't figure out what this old fox was trying to say. "Grandpa, Xiaoye and I are serious about getting married."

"My feelings for her have never been mixed with any interests, just the purest love!"

"Just like you and grandma, and my parents!"

He looked at Zhou Su, his tone serious and sincere.

There was also a hint of dissatisfaction in his eyes, seemingly because his feelings were misunderstood.

Seeing his handsome face fall, Zhou Su stopped teasing him.

"Hey, dear Xiaoyan~ Grandpa is not questioning your feelings for Jiang girl!" He smiled and pinched Zhou Shiyan's face, and said kindly, "How about this, Grandpa will tell you the secret first."

"Then wait for Xiao Yan to finish listening, and then answer this question again. How about it?"

Zhou Shiyan nodded without thinking: "Okay."

Zhou Su smiled slightly, and then he put away his playful smile completely: "Since your grandma passed away, I am the only one in the world who knows this secret."

He gently stroked the wedding ring on his left hand that he had worn for most of his life, his eyes gradually filled with mist: "Your grandmother and I were actually engaged by our ancestors."

"But I have liked her for a long time, long before I learned about the engagement."

"When I found out that I had an engagement with her family, I was so happy that I couldn't sleep for two nights!"

Speaking of this, Zhou Su laughed again.

Zhou Shiyan, who had been listening quietly, was a little surprised: "What? Child marriage?"

"But didn't you say that grandma didn't have a good life in the Qiao family?"

"If it was just a baby marriage, how could the Qiao family be willing to push Grandma out? Shouldn't they choose the daughter they love the most?"

Unexpectedly, his question played exactly what Zhou Su wanted.

"Hehe~ This is how powerful your grandfather is!" The old fox turned the ring and said proudly, "It was me who asked the Qiao family that only the eldest daughter could fulfill the marriage contract!"

"I know she's not having a good time in the Qiao family. So even if she doesn't like me, I want to do my best to help her."

"Since there is an engagement option, and I, your grandfather, have liked her for many years."

"From a selfish point of view, isn't this a win-win solution?"

Zhou Shiyan joked: "Brother Zhou, I didn't expect that you were quite pure in love when you were young?"

"Nonsense!" Zhou Su straightened his back and said proudly, "The men in our Zhou family! Every one of them must be able to handle affairs of state and cook!"

"I can beat the mistress! I can beat the gangster!"

"Be chaste before marriage! Respect your wife after marriage!"

"This is a family motto passed down from our ancestors! Remember it!"

Zhou Shiyan leaned his elbows on the back of the chair and supported his head with one hand: "Grandpa, don't worry~ I have memorized all the 520 male virtues of our family!"

"I will never bring shame to the Zhou family!"

After hearing this, Zhou Su nodded with satisfaction: "Good, good, good! This is grandpa's good grandson!"

Zhou Shiyan put down his hand, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, and sat up straight: "Grandpa, please get back to business!"

"So grandma married you? And then what? It's impossible that this 'child marriage' is a secret, right?"

"Of course not!" Zhou Su retorted with full force, "It's a done deal that your grandma will marry me!"

"Even if there is no marriage contract, I will definitely find a way to marry her!"

"It's just..." As he spoke, he suddenly became melancholy, "I didn't expect that Manxin already had someone she liked at that time."

"?" Zhou Shiyan was instantly frightened, "Grandpa? You...you are not going to do that?! Does my dad know about this?!"

Zhou Su slapped him on the arm: "You little brat! What are you thinking?! Am I, your grandfather, so shameless!?"

Zhou Shiyan said with a complicated expression: "...I won't comment, you can speak."

Zhou Su: “…”

Being misunderstood by his own grandson was a plot development that Zhou Su had never expected.

He was silent for a long while, and finally spoke again: "That boy met your grandmother in high school, and they went to Chuanhe together after graduation."

"When we fulfilled our engagement, your grandmother was exactly 20 years old and a sophomore in college."

"After we got married, she continued to complete her studies. I never interfered in her life, and I never forced her to do anything she didn't want to do."

"Until... one day half a year later, when the family's servant was washing clothes, she found a love letter in your grandmother's pocket."

"That's when I realized that she had always hated me. She hated me for ruining her life and forcing her to marry someone she didn't love."

"After this layer of window paper was broken, Manxin completely changed."

"She went on a hunger strike and smashed things. Your grandmother smashed all the antiques that Grandpa had treasured."

Zhou Shiyan frowned slightly and said hesitantly: "Then...did you not think about divorce at that time?"

"I have thought about it," Zhou Su said frankly, "but I wasn't a true gentleman at that time."

"Now that I have married the person I love, I can't let her go no matter what. I must keep her by my side no matter what."

Zhou Shiyan heard this and turned around and laughed: "Grandpa, this is a bit against our ancestral teachings, isn't it?"

"Hey! You little bastard! What do you know?!" Zhou Su was so angry that he kicked him. "Grandpa may be tough, but I will never do anything that goes against our ancestral teachings!"

"Besides, your grandma has only been making trouble for more than a year."

"Because during the winter break of her senior year...she accidentally got into a car accident near the school."

"When I got the news and rushed to the hospital, the doctor said she might never wake up... Even if she wakes up, she will be a vegetable for the rest of her life."

“That was the first time I realized that maybe keeping her around was…a mistake.”

Zhou Shiyan asked softly, "What happened next? How did grandma recover?"

Zhou Su took a deep breath and said, "Then...what happened next was even stranger."

"Less than three hours after the doctor explained the situation to me, Manxin suddenly woke up without any warning."

"She was conscious and her vital signs were stable. The medical staff examined her but could not find anything wrong with her."

"It's as if...she never had this car accident."

"!" Zhou Shiyan felt a sense of déjà vu, and his scalp suddenly tingled. "Grandpa? What do you want to say?"

A gentle breeze blew through the corridor, and the warm sun shone obliquely into the eaves, reflecting the deep and three-dimensional contours of his facial features.

It was such a familiar face, but after hearing these words, Zhou Su felt an unprecedented sense of strangeness.

The speculation that was originally 100% certain, after this glance, added an inexplicable sense of panic.

"Xiao Yan," he simply looked away, looking at a ginkgo tree swaying in the wind outside the corridor, and asked affirmatively, "Do you know 'rebirth'?"
