Su Jinxuan explained, “I have a cousin at Imperial University. I met him today and heard from him. I only found out about it then and immediately came over.”
Song Yuzhi heaved a sigh of relief when she reckoned Su Jinxuan would cover for the compensation settled in court. She said enthusiastically, “Young Master Su, you’re our family’s savior. Thank you so much.”
“Auntie Song, you don’t have to be so polite.”
“Since you’re here, let’s have a simple meal before you leave. 1’11 personally cook a few of my signature dishes for Young Master Su to try,” said Song Yuzhi.
“Thank you, Auntie Song.” Su Jinxuan chuckled.
“It wouldn’t trouble.” As she spoke, Song Yuzhi looked at Shi Muxue. “Xue’er, don’t cry. Sit beside Young Master Su for a while.”
Song Yuzhi pulled Shi Yaorong away.
So Shi Muxue and Su Jinxuan alone could have a moment in the living room.
Su Jinxuan walked to Shi Muxue’s side, picked up the tissue on the coffee table, and gently wiped her tears away.
“Xue’er, we have resolved the matter. Don’t cry.”
“Brother Xuan, thank you.”
“You’re still so polite to me?” Su Jinxuan chuckled.
Shi Muxue pursed her lips and said softly, “Brother Xuan, will you look down on me too?”
“Why would I do that?”
“Everyone is saying that I’m…”
“Xue’er, we don’t choose things as children of our parents. How can I blame you? Also, Uncle and Auntie Song are already married. You’re not an illegitimate daughter.”
Shi Muxue looked touched and said, “Then you believe I didn’t do those things?”
“Of course, I believe you,” Su Jinxuan said. “You’re so innocent and kind. Why would you do something like that?”
“Thank you, Brother Xuan,” Shi Muxue cried. “You’re the best person in the world!”
“Really?” Su Jinxuan chuckled. “Then why do you incessantly reject me? Why didn’t you ask me for help when something like this happened?”
Shi Muxue responded. “I don’t want to trouble you.”
“Xue’er, I would always fix troubles for you.”
Su Jinxuan said apologetically, “It’s just that I can’t help you avoid the apology. After all, the other party is a company under the JE Group. The Su’s can’t afford to offend them.
“However, it’s still fortunate. You are not going to show up during the apology. It’s just through a Weibo account. It’s not going to ruin you in the future.”
“Yes, I’m fine.” Shi Muxue nodded. “Anyway, I always apologized to my sister in the past, even though she always bullied me.”
Shi Muxue smiled bitterly.
“Xue’er, I’ll protect you no matter what.” Su Jinxuan looked at her and felt sorry for her.
“Thank you, Brother Xuan,” Shi Muxue said gently.
Su Jinxuan settled the damages reckoned in court against Xu Muchen, Mu Youming, and Chuangyue Games for Shi Yaorong and got through the Shi Family.
That night, Shi Muxue logged into her phone and used her account to apologize. She admitted the use of a friend’s account to post that thread. She only guessed the relationship between Xu Muchen and Mu Youming. And that she never had evidence to support it.
She apologized to Xu Muchen, Mu Youming, and Chuangyue Games afterward.
A multitude of hostilities flooded Shi Muxue’s Weibo following her public apology.
Multifarious curses brimmed the comment section.
Shi Muxue gripped her phone tightly. Coldness engulfed her eyes. She gritted her teeth and said, “Shi Qian, someday, I will make you wish you were dead! Just wait!”
Shi Muxue put down her phone and walked out of the room. She went to the living room downstairs and resumed her innocent and harmless look. “Dad, Mom, Big Brother, I have apologized already.”
“Xue’er, it’s been hard on you.”
Shi Muxue forced a smile. “Daddy, it’s okay. I hope Sister can calm down and stop causing trouble for us..”
