Chapter 17: 017 Are you brave enough to commit suicide again?
“I said that anything that belongs to you, Su Ran, I would snatch it all away—dad, grandma, Brother Heng—it’s just the beginning. Anything you cherish or care about, even if I can’t have it, I will personally destroy it. If I’ve defeated you once, I can do it countless times.”
The beautiful face was twisted with hatred, showing not the slightest trace of her former kindness or frailty.
Su Ran was also puzzled, wondering where Su Xinyan’s deep resentment towards her came from.
Although she really disliked women like Tan Lirong with that kind of status, she never felt she had been hard on Su Xinyan.
Instead, it was Su Xinyan who always opposed her at every turn.
Su Ran chuckled lightly, “Su Xinyan, you picked up the things I didn’t want and now you’re flaunting them proudly in front of me? Are you out of your mind?”
“The person you treasure is nothing but trash to me. Since you like him, I’ll let you have him, but please, don’t embarrass yourself.”
Su Xinyan’s face darkened, her eyes filled with venom as she glared at Su Ran.
“You really are as stubborn as ever, Su Ran. You are just a loser to me, what’s there to be proud of? Let me tell you, if you know what’s good for you, you’ll let go of Brother Heng, or else…”
Su Ran scoffed, “Or else what? Try to kill yourself again? Do you dare?”
At those words, Su Xinyan’s face underwent a drastic change, and she bit her teeth in secret anger.
Su Xinyan seethed with silent rage, wishing she could rush forward and tear this bitch’s face apart.
“Have you no shame? Brother Heng clearly doesn’t love you, yet you cling to him. I’m telling you, even if you give everything for Brother Heng, he won’t give you a second glance.”
Su Ran raised an eyebrow, laughing lightly, “Would someone who has any pride cling to someone else’s boyfriend?”
Su Xinyan’s expression froze!
“Besides, why do I need him to look at me? As long as I don’t let go, what does it matter if you two love each other? As long as I live, you will always be the concubine. If you serve him well, I might consider giving you a stipend for your hard work. We’re ‘sisters’ after all, it wouldn’t be right to let you be taken advantage of for nothing. I don’t mind him supporting one more mistress, especially since your mom is also a mistress. One more makes no difference to you.”
Su Xinyan’s face turned white with anger. Just as she looked up, she met Su Ran’s enchanting eyes, which were strangely charismatic yet carried a sinister quality.
“What’s the use of love these days? How much is Gu Heng’s love even worth? Besides, a dog can’t change its habit of eating shit. No man can be satisfied with just one woman. No matter how delicious the home-cooked meal is, it can’t compare to the shit outside. Isn’t Gu Heng relishing it right now?”
At those words, Su Xinyan nearly lost her composure, overwhelmed with fury. She hadn’t expected Su Ran to become so devilish, so vulgar.
Clenching her teeth, she retorted with a cold smirk:
“Don’t fool yourself. With the way Brother Heng treats you, do you really think you can marry into the Gu Family?”
Su Xinyan laughed, shaking with mirth.
“Don’t you know your own worth?”
Su Ran leisurely glanced at the woman in front of her, her tone light and full of playfulness.
“It doesn’t matter whether I can marry into the Gu Family or not, but I can make sure you never enter the Gu Family’s doors, just like your Mistress Mom, always kept in the shadows, never able to see the light of day. So…”
“Showing off in front of me? Aren’t you thinking a bit too highly of yourself, my dear sister?”
Su Xinyan’s face turned a bit pale, and she bit her teeth and chuckled coldly:
