Seeing that the matter had come to this, Fourth Grandfather could no longer stay in the mansion. His old face turned from green to white and was no longer the normal color of a human face.

Old Fifth and Old Seventh sat there, trembling with fear. They had arrived in an aggressive mood, thinking that they would be able to kick Ling Tianya out. Who would have known that the ones who would be cruelly slapped in the face would be them?

Madame Ruan looked at Fourth Grandfather. "Old Fourth, what else do you have to say?"

Seeing Madame Ruan's smiling, yet serious face, Fourth Grandfather abruptly stood up from the sofa and waved his arms continuously. "That's it. That's it. Sister-in-law, I was only thinking about what was best for Ruan Zeyan, so don't blame me!"

"Heng!" Madame Ruan snorted. "The girl hasn't even been home for half an hour and yet you already brought over a whole bunch of people. Your timing is superb!"

Madame Ruan's words made Fourth Grandfather anxious. "Sister-in-law, it's just a coincidence…"

"It sure is a coincidence!" Madame Ruan said.

Fourth Grandfather's face became rigid, and he was speechless. He had definitely arrived when he had because of the timing that had been agreed.

The panic-stricken Mandy sat on the floor, paralyzed and murmuring as if possessed. "Impossible. This is impossible. A child is impossible …"

Her mind was in a continuous loop, her eyes vacant. She had obviously been greatly shocked. She had bet everything on Ruan Zeyan's remorse towards her brother in order to help Ruan Guofu's futile attempt to kick out Ling Tianya. In the end, Ling Tianya had not been affected at all way and yet she had lost everything.

The look that Ruan Zeyan had just given her was devoid of any emotions. She knew that it was impossible for her to stay in the Ruan Family now. She couldn't return to the small island anymore either.

Madame Ruan looked coldly at Ruan Guofu's family as well as at Mandy before turning to Ruan Zeyan. "Great-grandson, what shall we do about these people?"

Ruan Zeyan glanced at Ruan Qishan, and Ruan Qishan looked at Ruan Guofu before saying to Ruan Zeyan, "You are now the head of the household. Everything will be done according to your orders."

Ruan Zeyan slowly walked forwards and sat on the main chair. He looked sternly at Ruan Guofu with eyes that were devoid of any emotions, as if he were simply an ant he was conveniently killing.

Ruan Guofu's blood ran cold and he stood there, paralyzed. "Zeyan, I am your third uncle…'

Ruan Zeyan was expressionless and indifferent to Ruan Guofu's words.

Ling Tianya's eyebrows furrowed in cold laughter. Now Ruan Guofu had remembered that he was the third uncle. What was he thinking when he was trying to harm her?

Ruan Zeyan looked coldly at those people and indifferently said, "Du Gang, take Ruan Guofu to the torture chamber. He will be punished according to the clan rules."

Hearing Ruan Zeyan's words, Ruan Guofu fainted. Although people were now punished according to the laws of society, and the ancestral punishments hadn't been used in a very long time, as a member of the Ruan Family he understood the ancestral punishment.

Because of Ruan Guofu's crime, once he entered the torture chamber, he would face either death or mutilation.

Hearing that Ruan Guofu was going to enter the torture chamber, third Mrs. Ruan collapsed. She hysterically shouted and shook her head at Ruan Zeyan as she hugged Ruan Guofu. However, because her chin has been dislocated, she couldn't say a single word.

Ruan Zeyan raised his eyebrows, "Bring Ruan Guofu's daughter and wife along and question them to see if they were aware of his actions. Then, punish them according to the ancestral law."

Third Mrs. Ruan panicked and looked pleadingly at Fourth Grandfather for help.

Fourth Grandfather was now helpless to even defend himself, yet, he spoke, trembling, "Zeyan, it is now the generation where we speak of the law. Isn't private punishment too…."

"Does Fourth Grandfather want to speak about the law with me?" Ruan Zeyan raised his eyebrows and looked at him with cold eyes.
