Su Qian felt like a bucket of cold water had been poured over her head. Her face turned pale and she was stunned for a moment before stopping her mother. “Mother, don’t do this, don’t do this, I’m fine.”
Su Qian felt that she had already compromised to this extent, but Su Yan’s voice entered Su Qian’s ears like a poisonous snake. “Are you sure that I’m slandering your daughter?”
“Mother, she’s my older sister, you can’t do this, don’t.” Su Qian hugged Mother Su’s waist from behind and tried her best to hold her back. As a result, Mother Su was standing in front, baring her fangs and brandishing her claws while Su Qian was holding her from behind. She wanted to appear gentle and innocent, but at the same time, she didn’t want Su Yan to notice anything wrong and expose her.
It stung the eyes. Su Yan looked away and whispered into Shi Qing’s ear, “Luckily you can’t see it now. Otherwise, you would definitely want to poke your own eyes.”
Su Yan’s attitude made Mother Su even angrier. “Qianqian, don’t stop me. I’m going to scratch that little b*tch’s face today.”
Xu Xin’s voice sounded, “Miss Su, do you need legal help? The nearest police station is only a few minutes away.”
These words made Mother Su calm down, seeing the seriousness on Xu Xin’s face, she finally calmed down. She adjusted her disheveled appearance and put on a fake smile as she said, “Su Yan, I won’t hold it against you since you’ve been raised by the Su Family for over a decade.
“But to compensate your sister, buy her some jewelry.” Mother Su raised her head. “In a few days, your sister will appear in front of the public for her coming-of-age ceremony. You don’t wish to see your sister being embarrassed, do you?”
Su Yan looked at the silent Su Qian. “You think so too?”
Su Qian did not say anything, in the end, she still had some hope in her heart. It would be a good thing if she could make Su Yan admit defeat.
Su Yan nodded in understanding. In Su Qian’s eyes, she seemed to agree.
Su Qian looked at the man sitting next to Su Yan and thought about the set of glittering jewelry upstairs. Her heart burned and her breathing quickened. The current Su Qian was still young and wasn’t that scheming. Most of her thoughts were superficial and she couldn’t hide the excitement on her face.
“Are you guys dreaming?” Su Yan laughed after she said that. After a while, she stopped. “You guys are pretty ugly, but you’re dreaming of wearing pretty things? Who do you think you are? Why should I buy things for you?” Su Yan met Mother Su’s fiery eyes and smiled faintly. “What does it have to do with me whether Su Qian is embarrassed or not?”
Mother Su was so angry that she lost her voice. She wanted to use the kindness of raising her to suppress Su Yan, but when she thought about the incident in the morning, Su Yan clearly did not care about the kindness of raising her.
Mother Su could only watch Su Yan’s back as she left. She spat harshly, “You were born but your mother did not raise you, you deserve to be an orphan.” When she thought about how Su Yan had slandered Su Qian, Mother Su hated herself for not letting Su Yan starve to death after adopting her.
Su Yan pushed Shi Qing away and waited for Xu Xin to drive the car over. Su Yan leaned over and whispered into Shi Qing’s ear, “Did you bring me here on purpose? Did you expect Su Qian and the others to come?”
Shi Qing shook his head. “Master Lina’s manuscript is ready, I want to customize a set of jewelry for you.”
Su Yan, who was just joking, was stunned for a moment. Her eyes were a little hot as she grabbed Shi Qing’s neck from behind and placed her chin on Shi Qing’s shoulder.
The sudden warmth that came over made Shi Qing pause. “What’s wrong?”
Su Yan shook her head hard, suppressing the emotions that had just risen in her heart. “Nothing. Since it’s a gift, shouldn’t it be a surprise for me? Why did you tell me?”
“It’s not a gift.”
Su Yan was stunned. “Huh?”
Shi Qing’s lips curled up slowly. “That set of gemstones is not worthy of being a gift.”
Shi Qing grabbed Su Yan’s hand and asked softly, “I’m lame and blind, do you really want to marry me?”
“Of course.”
“No regrets?”
“No regrets.”
Shi Qing felt warm in his heart. In the end, he asked with certainty, “Rumor has it that I’m ruthless and not a good person. Are you really willing?”
Perhaps it was because the more he cared about her, the less confident he became. Shi Qing tilted his head slightly, as if he wanted to avoid Su Yan’s gaze. However, Su Yan planted a kiss on his cheek. “That’s a rumor, I only believe in what I see, the Shi Qing I know is a gentle and kind man.”
Shi Qing’s ears turned red from the kiss, and his face heated up.
Su Yan poked Shi Qing’s cheek. “Right, you don’t even know what I look like now. Aren’t you afraid that I’m ugly?”
Shi Qing also smiled. “You’re not ugly.”
“You never even met me.”
“Not ugly..” Shi Qing had a serious look on his face, he was indeed objecting to Su Yan calling herself ugly.
