Chapter 7 - A Passerby Who Is Nothing

After Su Qiao An choked on his words, he went downstairs and was led by a servant into the hall.

On average, she would only see Zhu Shixiong once every half a year. This time, she didn't wear her glasses, but when she saw Zhu Shixiong, all she could see was a swaying shadow.

Zhu Shixiong was talking to someone, and upon seeing Su Qiao An, a smile appeared on his face. He called Su Qiao An to his side, and asked amiably: "Have you been busy with laws recently?"

"I'm a bit busy." Su Qiao An pursed her lips into a smile, and the dimples on the corner of her lips became light.

"This is?" When the young man who came in with Zhu Shixiong saw Su Qiao An, he changed his mind and asked Zhu Shixiong a question.

Zhu Shixiong laughed as he introduced her, "This is my eldest son's wife, Su Qiao An. Like you, he is also a lawyer."

Hearing that, the other party pushed the glasses on his nose and looked at Su Qiao An, "Miss Su, hello."

"Hello." After Su Qiao An greeted the other party, Zhu Shixiong helped her make the introductions and she found out that the person standing in front of his was surnamed Mo, his name was Mo Yunlang, he had just returned from England and coincidentally got to know Zhu Shixiong because of a business gathering. Since he was planning to return home to develop, he came back with Zhu Shixiong, and was invited to attend the family banquet.

Zhu Jiangci was extremely infuriated by Su Qiao An's words. He came downstairs, and when he saw Su Qiao An beside Zhu Shixiong, he smiled obtrusively and drank the wine in his hand in one gulp, then walked over.

"Dad!" he shouted.

Seeing him, the smile on Zhu Shixiong's face became lighter, "Where did you run off to? How can you let Qiao An stand here alone? "

"Oh, I think that Mrs. Chu really likes to do this alone." Zhu Jiangci's words contained a strong sense of ridicule, which made Zhu Shixiong feel uncomfortable, but he did not do anything, due to the fact that there was an outsider present.

Su Qiao An did not speak at all, the moment they met, the father and son duo did not have a single moment of peace.

She understood that the reason why the relationship between the father and son had deteriorated to such a state was entirely because of Zhu Shixiong forcing Zhu Jiangci to marry his back then.

Zhu Jiangci could choose not to marry, but he had the backbone of his generation, and it was just that Zhu Shixiong held onto his weak spot.

At that time, Zhu Shixiong had used Jiang Kerou as a threat, and if he had not married himself, Zhu Shixiong would have cut off Jiang Kerou's medical expenses.

He agreed. He humiliated himself by agreeing to this request that might cost him his life.

How great was their love! In order to protect his lover, he would rather break his own wings.

What about me?

Su Qiao An kept asking himself, "What about me?" What role did she play in this relationship? Was it to hone their love, or was it a passer-by who was nothing at all?

If she really was just a passerby, then the price she had to pay would be too tragic.

Su Qiao An felt that the atmosphere inside was too depressing, so he hid to the side window to get some fresh air.

"Why is the Miss Su standing here?" A clear voice came from behind. Su Qiao An was slightly startled.

Mo Yunlang stood beside her, maintaining a polite and safe distance between the two of them.

Su Yun was startled for a moment. "It's too stuffy inside.

"Mn." Mo Yunlang agreed with her words.

Su Qiao An stood for a while, feeling that it was inappropriate for a married woman to go missing during a family dinner, to be alone with a man, thus he bade farewell to Mo Yunlang and left.

She did not go to look for Zhu Jiangci, nor did Zhu Jiangci come to look for her.

If not because the banquet was over, Su Qiao An would have prepared to return. If not for Zhu Shixiong insisting that she and Zhu Jiangci should stay the night, she would probably not meet Zhu Jiangci for the entire night.

Before they went upstairs, Zhu Shixiong said to Zhu Jiangci meaningfully, "I don't care about your spending time outside, but there can only be one person sitting in the position of Chu Family's Young Lady, I hope you can consider it properly, and don't cause any trouble."

— —

After going upstairs, Su Yun prepared to return to the room that Song Cheng had prepared for her just now, but he was pulled by Zhu Jiangci.

Zhu Jiangci pulled her into his room, and with a bang, the door closed. Su Qiao An's body slightly trembled.

As he leisurely unbuttoned the top button of his shirt, he taunted Su Qiao An without sparing any effort, "That's really good, you actually complained to the old man so quickly? "Hmm?"

What did Zhu Jiangci think he had said to Zhu Shixiong, which resulted in Zhu Shixiong not giving him any face at all?

Su Qiao An laughed coldly, "Young Master Chu, do you think that everyone else is blind and deaf? Do you still need me to report what your Chu Shao lord has done? You are underestimating your influence. "

Just as she finished speaking, she was pushed against the door. Zhu Jiangci looked at her with a heavy gaze, "Oh? Didn't you tell the old man that I treated you badly and didn't properly satisfy you? "

She was not used to speaking to Zhu Jiangci so close, especially with such an ambiguous posture. Su Qiao An pushed him but didn't push him, and even refused to let him go on the side, "I wish you would stay far away from me. Zhu Jiangci, we just don't like each other, you don't have to linger in front of me, and use words to insult me, I'm not interested in you! Besides, are you, Zhu Jiangci, that obedient? "Do what Dad tells you to do?"

"I'm dirty?" Fiery light shot out from his black eyes. He hated Su Qiao An for speaking so arrogantly and not wanting to lose anything when talking to anyone.

"What's the point of always discussing this with me?" Previously, she and Zhu Jiangci had quarreled on this topic, and Zhu Jiangci had even fought with her. Thinking about it, Su Qiao An's temper started to rise, and he sneered: "Don't tell me you like me, so you used such childish methods to attract my attention."

"Are you crazy?" Zhu Jiangci laughed sarcastically, "In my opinion, it's because you've lived a comfortable life in the Mrs. Chu for the past few years, allowing you to expand and ferment, and have forgotten what you are, right?"

His grip on Su Qiao An's shoulder was very strong. "How can you forget that your mother is a prostitute, and is relying on pandering to support you, hm?"

Su Yun's face changed, his heart aching slightly.

That's right, Su Rong was just a prostitute. She had relied on her skin business to support herself in the red light district.

So what? In her heart, Su Rong was the cleanest person in the world, the only person who truly loved her.

If she hadn't desperately entered Zhu Jiangci's university to follow his footsteps, she wouldn't have been called upon by him and the series of things that would have happened next wouldn't have happened.

Su Qiao An suddenly lost all of his strength. She did not want to continue the argument with Zhu Jiangci, so every word that came out of his mouth was like a sharp blade that pierced her heart.

It was just that she couldn't cry out for pain. She couldn't cry. If she showed weakness, others would laugh at her even more.

Su Qiao An's eyes drooped down, his voice was low and hoarse, filled with fatigue, "Yes, she is a prostitute, so I am one too, are you satisfied now?"
