When he returned to the Tang residence, Aunt Zhang had already gone to sleep. Tang Luoye's car was not parked outside the door, as if he hadn't been back for a long time. It was difficult for people to adapt to all of this. The Tang Residence seemed especially lonely in the middle of the night. Such an atmosphere caused Su Xu to feel more and more sorrowful in her bones.
She kicked off her shoes and lay down on her bed. Originally, she should have just fallen asleep after being tired for a day, but she couldn't fall asleep at all. Such a night gave her a strong sense of insecurity. It was a rare occurrence for her to feel this way. She inexplicably felt flustered, suddenly thinking of many things.
Because he was drunk, he beat and scolded Su Yi and her. She saw that he, who was very young, had always been crying in Su Yi's arms the entire time, but the arms of Su Yi were so cold, and Su Yi's expression was so cold that even her heart seemed to be cold.
Gradually, she stopped crying. She gradually became crafty. When faced with something like this, she would find the right time to retaliate. As long as he was drunk, as long as he didn't hit anyone. The small him, because these eyes were burning hot, how could he hide his hatred.
It was just like back then, the same man, as if he had seen through her thoughts. "I know you hate me, you're the same as that bitch, you bastard!"
Every now and then, Su Xu would laugh coldly in her heart. If she was a bastard, then this man in front of her was just a wild man. If Su Yi was a whore, then he was a prostitute. No matter what, his humiliation of them was a deep witness to his humiliation.
To live better was the best revenge against him.
Su Xu suddenly thought of this. If she had tried to poison that man back then, what would she be like now? Was he in prison, or was he on the run? Or perhaps her child would not die.
She was no longer a stranger to him. She looked out the window and saw almost the same building across the street. She had never dared to imagine such a high-class, independent villa until a few years ago.
The first time she came here, she was very nervous. Wandering did not have a place to stay, and his only hope was for Tang Ling to take her in. In these three years, her teacher went from being blind in the beginning to being blind in the end. People only saw her appearance, who knew her inner suffering.
Tang Ling was a meritorious person, he would not raise useless trash. Back then, he was able to accept her because of a photo and a name, but who knew how long this mysterious item could allow her to stay in the Tang Clan. Perhaps, if he found out that she was useless, Tang Ling would chase him away.
In those three years, she had walked on thin ice, forced a smile, and pretended to strengthen herself. But who knew that in the beginning, she didn't understand anything. Was she a child prodigy? Who would learn so quickly from the start? Furthermore, those three were top masters and they all had their own businesses. With just a few pointers, they would have to learn the rest by themselves.
What Su Xu was afraid of the most was how Tang Ling would treat him if his performance was not good. She spent a whole three years' time. During these three years, it was practically more than ten years' time for other people. That was Su Xu's most painful period of time, and also her most perturbed period.
She had learned a lot about business, and because of that, she had gotten along well with her three masters. But even if they got along well, Su Xu couldn't help but admit that she didn't have any feelings for him in the beginning, and now, how many hearts did she have?
On the bed, Su Xu buried her head into the pillow. She suddenly realized how fake she was and how cold her feelings were. Why was the heavens so unfair? She had spent so much time and effort to escape one cage, but now she had entered another.
She did not know why Tang Ling wanted to learn business by himself back then. As Li Lin said, the most important thing for a girl was to marry a good person. However, it was clear that she no longer had that power.
From the moment she stepped into the shopping mall, she had already prepared to face his deceit. Ever since she and Qin Zheng had started their absurd night, she had already chosen the door to corruption. However, later on, she foolishly used this fallen gate as her final hope.
Today, Qin Zheng was once again single, but he had never come looking for him. Today, there was once a little bit of Tang Luoye who had moved her. For the sake of profit, she wanted to marry another woman. And the only one who seemed to have no intentions towards her, the unfathomable Lin Zixia, he still hid in the darkness, concealing everything.
Bai Mo, the one who couldn't let go of her heart the most, but also the one who deserved the most, took a deep breath. It had been a long time since she heard any news about Bai Mo. The last thing she remembered was Bai Mo's bloodless face. In the end, they had become strangers. Who would believe such nonsense as not being a lover or a friend?
Because of her deep love, she didn't want to see him again. Because he was ashamed, he did not dare to disturb her. Su Xu no longer had the courage to face Bai Mo, the only warmth in her body. Now from the looks of it, the only one who could persevere to the end was Bai Mo. But unfortunately, she didn't love him, so naturally she couldn't return his affection.
This way was also good. Su Xu felt that how could someone like her be worthy of that kind of "white Mo"? He was a pure land above the shopping mall. He never gave people a sense of unease, nor did he have that much offensive power. He was casual, ungrateful, gentle, and unassuming. This was Bai Mo.
If the shopping mall was filled with Qin Zheng's domineering aura, he would not give in at all. Tang Luoye was full of indecision and uncertainty; she was full of hatred and unrighteousness. How strong would she have to be to stand in an invincible position between these people in this kind of chaotic shopping mall?
All of a sudden, her mind was in a mess. Su Xu also didn't know what she was thinking about. She was like an old man who, after running and running until she was tired, finally started to recall the past bit by bit. Use the old eyes and apathetic mind to recount this old story.
Finally, amidst this silence, these scattered fragments and tangled memories, Su Xu finally fell asleep. She had never slept so deeply before. In her dreams, there would always be her own side to the world. In her dreams, she would never be as cruel as she was in reality. Everything in the dream was fake, but when he woke up, it might not be true.
When she got up in the morning, Su Xu was always drowsy and moved quickly, afraid that she would be late for work. In the end, she was still awakened by Aunt Zhang's words and realized that today was yet another weekend. She hadn't enjoyed such a leisurely weekend for a long time.
A workaholic like Tang Luoye never seemed to have the concept of a "weekend" in his mind. Every weekend at home, he would look at documents, run around in parties of various sizes, and everything seemed to work so well, just like the old Tang Ling.
He hadn't been here all week, so this weekend Su Xu seemed exceptionally free. She even felt that she could slowly brew a pot of good tea and lie on the collapse of her favorite beauty. A few months ago, she had forgotten who sent it to her, but Su Xu had liked it a lot, but unfortunately, she never had the time to enjoy it.
However, the good times were always short. When the second cup of tea arrived, his phone started ringing non-stop. He thought that there was an emergency at the company's office, but the number displayed on the screen was an unknown number.
Su Xu had a bad premonition in her heart. This strong feeling had been lingering in her mind since last night. Perhaps that feeling had begun a long time ago, but in recent days it had become even more sensitive.
"Long time no see, Su Xu!" There was a hint of schadenfreude in her tone, but she could not conceal the excitement in her voice. Su Xu frowned. She might have some impression of such a voice, but it was difficult for her to think of so many things in such a short period of time.
"You really don't remember me! I'm Lin Min'er!" The person who spoke wasn't too angry, but there was a hint of ridicule in his tone.
"But I've always remembered you. Moreover, there were a lot of introductions about you and your glorious history in the newspapers. It wasn't just me, how many people in this city still don't know about you?" "Oh right, I almost forgot. This year, I was living a bad life abroad. I wonder how you are doing?"
Lin Min'er was undoubtedly resentful towards Su Xu for speaking like this. It had to be said that after a year, she still hadn't made any progress. As always, she loved to mock herself, but she couldn't scheme much. Leaving her aside was not so hateful to herself. Perhaps she should also be a good person.
"You're relieved to know that I'm not doing well?" Su Xu held her phone. She didn't think that Lin Min'er only wanted to talk to her about trivial matters. The truth was that Lin Min'er had been sent abroad, so no one had expected her to return so quickly.
"How are you doing, and what does it have to do with me? "Su Xu, I'm not looking for you for these." Lin Min'er obviously didn't think that Su Xu would actually not feel anything. Even though she had just exposed her weakness, this woman still had the mood to joke around.
"Then I ask Miss Lin to be straightforward, my time is also very precious!" Her tea could not wait that long. However, it was clear that Lin Min'er would not let her drink the tea in this pot.
"It's not convenient to say it on the phone, I want to talk to you face to face!"
"Is there anything else between you and me that requires you to tell me in person? "Miss Lin, I don't have such a high status over you. Could it be that you want to use my father's matter to threaten me during the wedding ceremony?" She could forgive Lin Min'er for what happened that year, but that did not mean that she could truly forget it now.
"You!" Clearly, Lin Min'er was choked by Su Xu's attitude. Although her voice was somewhat angry, it did not diminish the malicious nature of her words.
"Anyway, your life doesn't have anything to do with me. Su Xu, if you don't come, don't regret it!" After the last roar, Lin Min'er, who had a bad temper, hung up.
However, when Su Xu heard the word "birth", she could no longer be rational. That was definitely the inside story she had been pursuing. For the past year, she had been looking for detectives to find Su Yi's past as well as her real father. However, both of these things were like stones that sank into the ocean.
A pot of good tea was too late to taste it, so Su Xu's heart had already drifted far away. She had been fond of memories all this time, but they didn't seem to help her think of anything. She had lived all her life in gloom and darkness, and now that someone was about to tell her her story, there was nothing left to tell.
Su Yi was her mother and that scum was her father. Su Xu's childhood was the same as everyone else's, but it was also different. Her parents didn't love each other, and even more so, they didn't love her. Su Yi was just as cold-hearted. How much love was left for her? She would always silently endure it and commit suicide in the end. And her father, what a ridiculous father, called her a little bastard drunk all the time.
