3385 Su Yu is the Type I Like 15
“Don’t say ‘Ahh?’ Do you really think I’m a gullible old lady?”
Mrs. Zeng looked at her willful daughter in a huff.
“I just didn’t know that you’ve seen Auntie Su…”
“What did you expect? Would you tell me the truth otherwise?”
Zeng Rou: “…”
“Rou, you’re not a little girl and I never intrude on your business, even when you had a boyfriend in university without telling us.”
“Yes.” Zeng Rou lowered her head, feeling guilty.
“Now you’ve reached the age to marry. With your looks, educational background, and family status, you have lots of choices. You don’t have to make yourself into a housemaid.”
“I didn’t. While I lived in Su Yu’s home, I cooked for myself. It’s ridiculous to call me a housemaid.”
“Then tell me why you went to Singapore?” Mrs. Zeng looked solemn.
“Because I… wanted to tour Singapore, Malaysia, and Thailand. Due to the limit of time, I didn’t go to Thailand and Malaysia.”
“You’re still trying to lie to me? Come… read it yourself.”
Mrs. Zeng took out her cellphone and showed some screenshots to Zeng Rou.
Glancing at them, Zeng Rou was stupefied when she saw those screenshots were comments tras.h.i.+ng her on Weibo when the thing about Su Yu and Nie Lingxuan happened.
“Did Su Yu tell you to go to Singapore?”
“No, no. I decided to go myself… I just felt I needed to get out of the city and lay low for a while…”
“Why didn’t you go home? You’re the daughter of Secretary Zeng. Who would dare to bully you?” Mrs. Zeng was angry.
She just didn’t understand it. Her daughter wasn’t an aggressive person, but not a doormat either; how come she became so meek?
“No. I didn’t want to make you and Dad worry about me. Besides… Those guys don’t know my family background and think I’m just an internet celebrity who is trying to gain more attention. I didn’t want to explain it to them. Since my bestie in Singapore invited me to see her, I went there to have fun. It truly has nothing to do with Su Yu. Please don’t blame him, Mom.”
“What potion did that fellow Su Yu feed you? He treated you so badly and you’re still defending him?”
“Mom… Su Yu’s a great guy. You’ve never seen him and don’t know his personality. In fact, to know a person, you can’t just listen to rumors; you have to use your eyes and heart. I’m not a genius, but I’m not stupid either. I know what kind of guy Su Yu is. He’s a good man, really. Mom, after I broke up with my previous boyfriend, I had felt dead inside and thought all the men were sc.u.mbags. Now I finally know what kind of guy I like. I just like a guy like Su Yu.”
“You… Girl, you should feel ashamed of yourself…” Mrs. Zeng was a very traditional woman.
After all, she was the wife of a high-level politician; she felt incredulous, hearing these words from her daughter.
“It’s nothing to be ashamed about. Su Yu is single, so am I… That’s very normal for me to like him.”
“What’s your plan?”
“I don’t have a plan. I just like living here. When I went to Singapore, he even gave me some money, but I didn’t accept it; I only took one red packet from him. He’s a very interesting guy, as pure as a child.” Mentioning Su Yu, Zeng Rou smiled and was full of praises of him.
Seeing her daughter’s determination, Mrs. Zeng thought for a moment and said, “If you truly like him, your dad and I will talk to Su Yu’s parents and settle the marriage between you and Su Yu.”
