“I don’t care,” Su Wen declared firmly, rejecting the notion that she was a coward.
The only person she would concede defeat to was Hengyang. She loved Hengyang and was willing to yield to him. Besides, Hengyang was exceptional. Spoiling him wasn’t a sign of defeat.
“What do you mean you don’t care?” Zhou Yan asked.
Su Wen explained patiently.
Though Zhou Yan found it interesting, she remained resolute. “No! I must teach Song Zishan a lesson.”
“There’s no need,” Su Wen replied. “You know, my priority isn’t writing books, but opening a shop and a company. This is my next mission. If I spend all my energy fighting Song Zishan, it won’t be worth it.”
“But…” Zhou Yan protested, still unwilling.
“Little Aunt, listen to me,” Su Wen said with a sly smile. “Doesn’t Song Zishan see me as her biggest enemy now? She’s using all her resources to write a book to compete with me. Let her. When my company makes money and opens in the capital, and everyone around her is carrying Su family bags, she’ll realize that writing books is trivial. I won’t care, and my company will have already succeeded.”
“Then wouldn’t she be infuriated?” Zhou Yan asked.
“Definitely,” Su Wen nodded. “Song Zishan is an arrogant person. When she realizes that what she values and fights for is insignificant to her enemies, she’ll feel deeply humiliated.”
The more arrogant a person is, the less they can tolerate failure. At that point, Song Zishan would become a laughingstock.
Zhou Yan’s eyes lit up with understanding. She gave Su Wen a thumbs up. “Amazing, you’re right. The more she cares, the less we should care. Let Song Zishan be smug for now.”
Su Wen smiled shyly. She had another concern she didn’t mention: she didn’t want her aunt dragged into her conflict with Song Zishan. The current issue was contained between Su Wen and Song Zishan, and the Song family didn’t take it seriously.
But if the Song family truly retaliated, it wouldn’t be a small matter. Who knew what could happen to her?
If Zhou Yan got involved, the Song family might feel provoked. Would the shrewd Song Jinyan think his sister was being bullied? Escalating the conflict would be disadvantageous.
Su Wen wanted to keep her aunt out of it. As a member of the Zhou family, what would they think if Zhou Yan helped her? Su Wen cared about her reputation and didn’t want to lower her head before the Zhou family. She couldn’t drag Hengyang down and let him be looked down upon.
Su Wen saw herself as the head of the family. Hengyang, who was her husband deserved better. She felt inadequate as the female head of the family, relying on Hengyang’s support. He took care of her and the family, so she couldn’t burden him further.
In the provincial city, in Changhe’s office, Zhou Hengguang leaned back in his chair, holding his phone in one hand and ma.s.saging his acupoint with the other. Despite his relaxed posture, a closer look revealed his fatigue.
Recently, Zhou Hengguang has been very busy. As his career developed, his workload increased. However, his eldest brother, preferring love over duty, had gone to the capital to find a wife instead of returning to the provincial capital as planned.
“Hey! Help me to fetch Feng Yanze.”
