"Mom, can you pass me the laptop!" Su Lianxi suddenly said urgently.
Lin Shuyue was startled for a moment, then hurriedly handed over the laptop from nearby.
Su Lianxi quickly placed the laptop on her knees, logged into her email, and hastened to recall one of the emails she had already sent.
After successfully recalling the email, she breathed a sigh of relief. Since it could be recalled, it meant the recipient hadn’t opened the email yet.
Lin Shuyue couldn’t help asking, "Lianxi, what’s wrong?"
Su Lianxi paused for a moment, then shook her head, "Nothing."
After speaking, she repeated, "Mom, I won’t be finished."
"So you don’t have to nag anymore," Su Lianxi said wearily, "and don’t cry in front of me, it’s not like I’m dead. If it comes down to it, I just won’t get married at all. Can’t I live on my own?"
Lin Shuyue turned pale with shock, "Not get married? But..."
"Enough! In my condition, what respectable man would want me?" Su Lianxi scoffed, "I refuse to be some man’s second wife, tending to his family, all for a bite to eat."
Lin Shuyue was at a loss for words for a long time, but suddenly, she felt that Lianxi had changed.
A few days ago, Lianxi had been completely listless, and she was always afraid Lianxi might commit suicide.
But after Su Zixi had talked to her, Lianxi seemed to suddenly come to life...
"Also, as long as I have a bite to eat, I won’t abandon you and Dad," Su Lianxi pursed her lips, "You don’t have to worry about me."
Even though such a thing had happened, she was still Su Lianxi.
She would no longer fight for things that should never have been hers, she would no longer hurt others, but that did not mean she had become a pushover.
Su Zixi, I will win against you fair and square, just you wait!
She thought, grinding her teeth.
When Su Zixi walked into the parking lot, she suddenly asked Uncle Li, "By the way, those people who attacked Su Lianxi, have they been caught?"
Uncle Li nodded, "These matters have already been taken care of by the young master of the Ning Family, don’t worry about it."
Su Zixi couldn’t help but smile lightly.
Even if Ning Yichen had grown to dislike Su Lianxi to this extent, he couldn’t possibly abandon her completely.
Because that was the kind of person he was.
She suddenly became very curious, did Ning Yichen know that the girl he saved back then was Su Lianxi?
But now, none of that mattered anymore.
Su Zixi smiled, bent down, and got into the car.
When she arrived back at Wanhe Qianfeng Garden, it was still early. Su Zixi went back to her room and watched a movie on her computer alone. Just as it reached the climax, He Jingyao came back.
So when a large hand caressed her head, she was startled and stood up abruptly.
Turning around, she met the man’s inscrutable dark eyes.
She hurriedly took off her headphones and settled into his embrace with a beaming smile, "Jingyao, you’re back!"
But she had been a bit too forceful in removing the headphones and inadvertently pulled the connection to the computer too, and as a result, the sound of the movie became loud.
A series of not-so-harmonious "mmm" and "ahh" sounds floated through the room.
Su Zixi stiffened suddenly!
He Jingyao wrapped his arms around her waist, his expression half-smiling, "What movie are you watching, hmm?"
Su Zixi chuckled awkwardly, and with a swift backhanded slap, she closed the laptop, "Just a regular romance film, a regular romance film!"
Definitely not an adult movie, she swore!
