Chapter 1004: Be It a Fool or a Madman!
The exquisite little trinkets bought when Song Yao was filming overseas and traveling.
Porcelain drawings, handmade weaved items…
That place was filled with things that had to do with Song Yao!
And Su Huan’s memories, his antic.i.p.ations for the future!
He had tasted Song Yao’s awful cooking before and antic.i.p.ated Song Yao’s promise that it would get better and better!
He and Song Yao had talked about their future children, so he also antic.i.p.ated the arrival of their baby.
They had agreed to paint the ceiling of the playroom sky blue, then stick glow-in-the-dark stars on it so that their children could fall asleep every night looking at the night sky!
Where should he place all those memories?
“Thud thud thud…”
Hearing someone knock on the door, Su Huan returned to his senses. He opened the door and saw Little Lu carrying snacks and milk. He smiled and said to Su Huan, “Mr. Su, have some supper!”
“Thanks!” Su Huan quickly received the food from him. Despite having no appet.i.te now, he was filled with grat.i.tude towards Little Lu.
Little Lu was a clever person and likely guessed Song Yao and Su Huan’s relations.h.i.+p in the past…
He was about to leave, but upon noticing Su Huan’s slightly reddened eyes, he couldn’t resist saying, “Mr. Su, over this period of time, Sir, Madam, and I have been staying at Ms. Song’s place. I can tell how much Ms. Song’s husband cares about her, how well he treats her! Ms. Song’s love for her husband is also really carved into her bones! Those with discerning eyes can easily see that.”
Su Huan tightened his grip on the tray and forced a smile. “I understand what you mean…”
“Mr. Su, you’re a fine young man. Somewhere else on this earth, your other half must be eagerly waiting for you to hold her hand. But, in order to find the one who is waiting for you, the prerequisite is that you must first be able to see other ladies…”
Little Lu smiled and spoke in a relaxed and jesting tone, but what he said was very, very true!
Song Yao occupied the entirety of Su Huan’s heart, blinding his eyes and making him unable to see other ladies… other sceneries.
“I’ll remember what you said!” Su Huan smiled at Little Lu.
Little Lu didn’t intrude further. After nodding at Su Huan, he left.
Su Huan looked at the steaming gla.s.s of milk and snacks, then smiled in a self-mocking manner. Even Little Lu could tell that Song Yao had fallen for someone else. Then perhaps… Song Yao really had fallen for her husband!
Su Huan understood Song Yao very well. Among all the girls he knew, she was the one with the strongest sense of justice. She was also the most squeamish one, the most unable to endure hards.h.i.+p and pain. A simple b.u.mp would make her squeal in pain for a long time!
Since she was willing to bear a child for that man, she must love him a lot!
Su Huan closed the door and sat beside the window with the milk and snacks. Despite eating the snacks made by Michelin chefs, he felt like he was chewing candles. Downing them with the milk, he didn’t know what they tasted like!
Su Huan… was still unwilling to concede defeat!
Despite Fu Huai’an, Lin Nuan, and Little Lu’s persuasions, Su Huan still couldn’t let go…
He wanted to give himself one last chance!
If he couldn’t go to Morocco for Song Yao’s sake, he could resolve never to go there again. But… he still wanted to be the person who held both money and power. When he surpa.s.sed him or became that man’s equal, he wanted for Song Yao to be able to choose all over again with no burden!
If Song Yao still chose that man, then… Su Huan would willingly concede defeat!
But should Song Yao choose him, then Su Huan would have won himself a future! A future with Song Yao in it!
He downed the gla.s.s of milk as if he was drinking alcohol, then set down the gla.s.s heavily and started smiling like a fool!
Perhaps in others’ eyes, he looked like a fool!
But did it matter? Be it a fool or a madman!
Su Huan knew that life was scarily short. To follow his heart and be a fool for once, Su Huan was very much willing.
For a very long time, Su Huan had been asking himself, did he hate?
Su Huan never dared to say… that he hated the man beside Song Yao to death! That he couldn’t wait to bite a chunk off that man! But at the same time, he was grateful to that man for giving Song Yao the future she wanted at a time when he didn’t yet have the ability to.
Su Huan had conflicting feelings towards Cen Mo, so conflicted that sometimes it made his emotions unstable and a little twisted!
He knew what kind of influence Song Yao’s husband had in the underworld and the business circle. So long as Song Yao could return to his side, Su Huan was also willing to take this path. It didn’t matter if he had to get his hands dirty! Without Song Yao, even if he had everything, it didn’t mean a thing to him!
He had also thought before that he would one day surpa.s.s the man who s.n.a.t.c.hed Song Yao away from him, then torture and humiliate the man standing in a position above him!
However, Su Huan was a kind person by nature, so those were but things he imagined when rage overtook his rational senses.
…
After Lin Nuan returned to China, after some rest, she started her busy work. In order to complete her filming in Morocco before Chinese New Year, she had to complete the recording of “Talking with Lin Nuan” and “After Heroes” in one day, with no room for delay.
Right now, whoever went on Lin Nuan’s show would get popular. As such, countless celebrities wanted to get on Lin Nuan’s show for publicity. Even the bigshot celebrities treated Lin Nuan with a respectful att.i.tude.
This time, the person going on Lin Nuan’s “Talking with Lin Nuan” was Gu Qingliu, the 62-year-old winner of the Best Actor Award, who had disappeared from the screens for many years, six to be exact. No matter how the media tried during those six years, no one found a trace of where Gu Qingliu went.
It was only when people very close to Best Actor Gu Qingliu extended an invitation that the veteran would guest-star in a scene or two…
Originally, Miss Xia had wanted to film some materials at Lin Nuan’s movie filming location, but because she received notification that Gu Qingliu would be going on “Talking with Lin Nuan,” she had hurried back to China to get in touch with Gu Qingliu.
Since the veteran wanted to go on Lin Nuan’s show, Miss Xia wouldn’t dare not to give him face. She hurriedly called w.a.n.g Ruosi, the newly crowned winner of the Best Actress Award, who had arranged the filming date and time. The minute w.a.n.g Ruomin heard it was Gu Qingliu who wanted to cut in line before her, she quickly agreed, not saying things like she was in a difficult position because of her tight schedule or something.
Gu Qingliu was a highly knowledgeable elder, and the episode became a fascinating round of debate. One was an elder in his sixties, while the other was a youngster in her twenties, hence the unavoidable generation gap!
Veteran Gu and Lin Nuan were born at different times and grew up in different families and environments, leading to differing opinions between the two on the same matter, and even different perspectives!
Somehow, the two of them got to the topic of “better to get rid of enmity than keep it alive,” on whether one should help someone who had discord with oneself if that person begged them!
Gu Qingliu’s opinion was that hating someone was a form of punishment to oneself, in which case, one might as well let it go and extend a helping hand provided it didn’t harm one’s interests. He believed that everyone could bury the hatchet after the matter…
