Chapter 978 - A Really "Good Helper"

Su Jian’an breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as Mu Sijue could forgive her for slandering him, she could even deal with ten persons like Yang Shanshan if she tried her best!

When Su Jian’an found Yang Shanshan, the latter was lying on the hospital bed, her eyes red and teary. She looked like a weak woman who had been bullied for no reason, which made people feel pity for her.

Unrequited love was probably the most painful thing in the world.

However, a girl, who threatened a man with her committing suicide by taking sleeping pills, was unworthy of pity.

Su Jian’an sorted out her thoughts and tried to think about how to start a conversation.

When she saw Su Jian’an, Yang Shanshan suddenly stopped wiping away her tears. She took out her cosmetic bag and asked Su Jian’an while reapplying her makeup, “Are you here to laugh at me?”

Su Jian’an was stunned and shook her head. “Miss Yang, you think too much.”

Yang Shanshan slammed the powder box and looked at Su Jian’an critically. “Then what are you doing here?”

Su Jian’an was speechless.

“Yang Shanshan got angry because she denied that she was here to laugh at her?

“So, did Yang Shanshan mean that she could only come here to laugh at her?”

Ah, Miss Yang’s way of thinking was quite strange.

Su Jian’an suddenly realized that talking to Yang Shanshan might not require too much effort.

She said directly, “Miss Yang, I want to talk to you about the affair between you and Sijue.”

Yang Shanshan pursed her lips and said in a stubborn tone, “There’s nothing to talk about. We had sex, so Brother Sijue must be responsible for it! He always says that he regards me as his younger sister, but who will sleep with his younger sister? I don’t care. I must be with him!”

Su Jian’an remembered very clearly that when she left Shen Yuechuan’s suite, Mu Sijue said something meaningful to her.

“Ask Shanshan to recall what happened that night.

“In addition, tell her on my behalf that I have no obligation toward her.”

Mu Sijue did not expressly reveal but suggested that there was a misunderstanding between Yang Shanshan and him that night.

According to Mu Sijue, he had explained it to Yang Shanshan, but Yang Shanshan was unwilling to face the fact. She insisted that Mu Sijue had slept with her and asked Mu Sijue to be responsible for it.

This was clearly… a shameless act.

Yang Shanshan seemed to have made up her mind to be shameless to the end.

Su Jian’an had a headache and could not help massaging her temples.

It was hard to talk to Yang Shanshan. She seemed to have her own channel to which others had no access, and she was also unwilling to accept others’ signals.

She wanted to use this method to force Mu Sijue to be with her.

However, how could threats be enough to resolve such a complicated issue as affection?

Even if it was possible, Mu Sijue was not the kind of person who would give up on everything merely because of a threat. How could Yang Shanshan ignore such an obvious thing?

Su Jian’an looked at Yang Shanshan carefully and suddenly asked, “Miss Yang, how much do you like Sijue?”

“Very much!” Yang Shanshan could not describe how much she liked Mu Sijue. She could only say stubbornly, “My life is meaningful only when I’m with Brother Sijue.”

Although Su Jian’an did not like Yang Shanshan, she was still a little stunned by Yang Shanshan’s words.

No matter what kind of person Yang Shanshan was, her love for Mu Sijue was true. Mu Sijue was even the light and the whole significance of her life.

Su Jian’an respected Yang Shanshan’s feelings, but her feelings for someone could not become a reason to cause trouble for that person.

It was true that Yang Shanshan liked Mu Sijue, and it was also true that she was selfish.

“I believe that you really like Sijue.” Then, Su Jian’an suddenly asked, “But have you ever thought that Sijue never regards you as a possible lover?”

Yes, Mu Sijue never regarded Yang Shanshan as a woman, but his younger sister.

Yang Shanshan’s sore point was suddenly poked, and she shouted sharply, “How dare you say that Brother Sijue has never liked me?!”

“Miss Yang, your emotional response is so strong.” Su Jian’an smiled calmly and firmly. “It shows that you know it very well, but you just don’t want to face it.”

Yang Shanshan’s face turned pale. She pointed to the door and shouted, “Stop talking! Get out! If you don’t get out, I’ll call the security guards! The hotel belongs to you, but the hospital can’t belong to you, can it?”

“Miss Yang, what a coincidence!” Su Jian’an smiled even more brightly. “This hospital also belongs to me.”

“Holy crap!” Yang Shanshan almost choked on Su Jian’an’s words.

“So, it’s useless to call the police, let alone the security guards.” Su Jian’an pulled a stool and unhurriedly sat down. “Miss Yang, let’s continue to talk.”

Yang Shanshan snorted and turned her head, unwilling to face Su Jian’an again.

Su Jian’an dominated the conversation, so she was not in a hurry. She provoked Yang Shanshan bit by bit, “Miss Yang, do you know Sijue? Can you fit yourself into his life?”

“What a joke!” Yang Shanshan turned back and looked at Su Jian’an disdainfully. “Our families have been friends for generations. We grew up in the same environment. Although I don’t interfere in their business, I know very well what Brother Sijue’s life is like!”

Su Jian’an did not tell Yang Shanshan that knowing something well and fitting in were two different things.

She thought for a moment and said, “Since you are so confident, why don’t you follow Sijue for a day and experience his daily life at close range before giving me such an answer?”

“Why not?” Yang Shanshan suddenly lifted the quilt and stood up. She looked at Su Jian’an arrogantly. “I’m not afraid of you!”

Su Jian’an nodded calmly. “That’s a deal. When Sijue leaves, I’ll ask someone to contact you. You can rest for a bit longer.”

Yang Shanshan snorted, ignored Su Jian’an, and began to reapply her makeup again.

She must look nice every time she appeared in front of Mu Sijue!

Even if Mu Sijue liked her appearance instead of her, she was willing to be with him.

Su Jian’an did not say anything more. She returned to Shen Yuechuan’s suite and told Mu Sijue that Yang Shanshan was going to follow him for a day.

Mu Sijue frowned. He was a little surprised and greatly displeased. “You asked Shanshan to follow me for a day?”

Su Jian’an knew that Mu Sijue could not accept it, but there was a reason for her to choose this method.

She coughed and tried to persuade Mu Sijue. “If Yang Shanshan follows you for a day, she won’t probably pester you anymore. Think about it carefully. It’s a bargain.”

Mu Sijue did not know what Su Jian’an was planning, but he remembered their deal clearly.

He looked at Su Jian’an dangerously. “If Shanshan still pesters me this time tomorrow, I won’t forgive your slandering me so easily.”

Su Jian’an felt a chill run down her spine and nodded blankly. “Okay.”

Mu Sijue stopped wasting time on Yang Shanshan’s matter. He said to Xiao Yunyun, “You go out with Jian’an. I have something to discuss with Yuechuan.”

Usually, Xiao Yunyun could tease Mu Sijue, but once Mu Sijue became serious, she would be afraid of him.

Xiao Yunyun nodded obediently and said, “Yuechuan is still recovering. He’s not in high spirits. Try to make it short and let him have a rest after you finish speaking.”

Mu Sijue narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Xiao Yunyun and replied in a milder tone of voice, “I see.”

Xiao Yunyun smiled at Mu Sijue and pulled Su Jian’an out.

There was a fruit plate in the living room, on which there were several kinds of fresh fruits of the season. Xiao Yunyun picked a banana and asked curiously, “Cousin, why did you ask Yang Shanshan to follow Boss Mu for a day?”

Su Jian’an took an apple and peeled it. “Because Sijue doesn’t like Yang Shanshan.”

“I know, but I still don’t understand.” Xiao Yunyun took a bite of the banana. “I thought you would reason with Yang Shanshan and persuade her to give up Boss Mu.”

Su Jian’an smiled and said, “It’s not useless. Yang Shanshan must know those things before I tell her.”

Xiao Yunyun touched her nose in confusion. “Then… will it work if you let Yang Shanshan follow Boss Mu?”

Su Jian’an pondered for a moment and pretended to be mysterious. “Whether it works or not, we’ll only know tomorrow.”

She was not 100% sure that her method would work.

She was sure that if this method could not wake Yang Shanshan up, then… Mu Sijue would be really in big trouble.

Xiao Yunyun took another bite of the banana and suddenly thought of something. She raised her hand and said, “Cousin, I still have one more question.”

Su Jian’an had just finished peeling off the apple and said, “Go ahead.”

“My cousin-in-law also chased after my cousin for ten years. Since you never persuaded her to give up at that time, why did you persuade Yang Shanshan to give up now?”

“That’s not the case today,” Su Jian’an put down the fruit knife and said, “When Xiaoxi was pursuing my brother, he didn’t have a constant girlfriend. Moreover, it was possible for Xiaoxi and my brother to be together. However, it’s impossible for Yang Shanshan and Sijue to be together, for Sijue cannot forget Youning in a short time.”

Xiao Yunyun tilted her head and pretended to ask innocently, “Cousin, is that all?”

Su Jian’an cut the apple and gave half of it to Xiao Yunyun. Then she continued, “There is another reason that can’t be ignored. I liked Xiaoxi very much at that time.”

But Yang Shanshan was really annoying.

Xiao Yunyun took a bite of the apple and said, “I know why Yang Shanshan will fail!” She glanced at Su Jian’an and continued, “She doesn’t have your help!”

Su Jian’an could not help laughing. Soon, Mu Sijue came out of the ward.

Xiao Yunyun stood up and looked at Mu Sijue expectantly. “Boss Mu, are you leaving?”

Mu Sijue replied with a “hmm” and stepped out.

Su Jian’an called Yang Shanshan’s ward, and said that Mu Sijue was ready to leave and asked Yang Shanshan to go to the parking lot.

No one could predict what would happen after Yang Shanshan’s departure.

Xiao Yunyun took a look at Su Jian’an and said expectantly, “May God bless you, Cousin. I hope that Yang Shanshan will be clear-headed after this.”

Su Jian’an cooperatively crossed herself. “Amen.”

When Su Jian’an recalled the events that happened today later, she really felt that she was worthy of being termed as a good helper!
