Su Ya sat in front of her dressing room table mirror and looked at her reflection—there were five clear finger imprints on her jade-white face.
After a moment, she touched her face gently while her scarlet lips curled up.
If she could turn Su Qianxun and s.h.i.+ Guang against one another, those two slaps and her nearly drinking the water of the toilet bowl would have been all worth it. After all, she was a Su—there was no reason why Su Qianxun should be siding with an outsider.
Suddenly, the room door opened and Su Ya’s mother—Xu Yafeng—walked in. “Yaya…”
When she caught sight of Su Ya’s injuries, she froze up in her spot and raised her hand, wanting to touch her wounds. “What happened to your face?”
Su Ya’s gaze turned frosty as the entire aura around her turned insipid instantly. She slapped Xu Yafeng’s hand away. “What else? I got beaten up!”
“Who did it?! Who would dare land a finger on you?” Xu Yafeng grit at her teeth, her face icy cold. “Tell me who it was! I’ll definitely not let the person off!”
“s.h.i.+ Guang!”
That name had Xu Yafeng freezing momentarily as she asked Su Ya in a fl.u.s.tered manner right after, “Why? What happened?”
“What happened? Do you guys know who she’s been really close with recently…? Su Qianxun!” Su Ya’s entire gaze was filled with coldness, looking at Xu Yafeng with an intensely dark stare. “Have you considered about the consequences of letting their relations.h.i.+p develop further?”
“So, you resorted to acting pitiful so that they would turn against one another!” Xu Yafeng looked at her daughter’s face with a pained expression. Thankfully, these were only superficial wounds that would heal up with time. She was a girl after all; things would be bad if there were scars left behind.
“If father were more useful, I would not need to take the risk of possibly getting disfigured by letting someone beat me for free!” Su Ya clutched her head, resting her elbows on the table.
For such a huge Su Family, her father was indeed an especially odd existence. Probably because of her granny’s overpampering, or because of his blood relation, both her 2nd uncle and little auntie were so exceptional in capabilities. Yet, her father was a frivolous and useless man.
For all these years, his lack of performance had already caused huge displeasure at the bottom of the Old Master Su’s heart.
Su Ya was truly grateful that she and her brother were both brought up by their grandfather—Old Master Su. She was also grateful that she got to know of some things that she should not have known of as well. Otherwise, if she were to adopt the same character as her father, their entire family might probably be living in some poor dump right now.
After all, one’s tolerance towards their relatives was extremely different from that toward outsiders, and even more so toward enemies!
Xu Yafeng expressed harshly, “Back then, we should not have left the trouble outside, and should have settled it immediately. Then, we wouldn’t have the current issues we’re facing now. Should we…”
With that, she made a gesture of slicing her throat.
“You think that we’re still in the past right now?” Su Ya cut through her words. “Technology is so advanced now. You really think that an accident is as easy to fake as back then? Furthermore, s.h.i.+ Guang is already married to the Lus right now! She’s no longer any ordinary person out on the streets!”
If anything were to happen to s.h.i.+ Guang, Lu Yanchen would definitely get to the bottom of it.
But the Lus… If she were to try anything rashly again, they might be the ones going down with a tragic end.
That was something she could not gamble with.
“I nearly forgot that that cheap sl*t had already married into the Lus. I truly had not expected her to be that capable. Honestly, that Yang Sitong is truly way too useless. We had already helped her so much, and she could still mess it up.”
As Xu Yafeng spoke by the side, Su Ya’s gaze in the mirror turned darker and darker…
