Chapter 13: Don’t Be Too Hypocritical
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Xu Xin understood Mother Su too well, she was someone who bullied the weak and feared the strong. Xu Xin nodded his head politely at Mother Su’s accusation. “This lady’s behavior is strange. I’m worried that she might hurt my boss. If this madam thinks that there’s something wrong with what I’ve done, we can go through legal procedures. If madam decides to sue, I can get my lawyer to contact you.” His attitude was gentle and polite, and no one could find fault with his manners. However, the words that he said made people uncomfortable.
As expected, Xu Xin’s words made Mother Su hesitate. Looking at Xu Xin’s smiling face, Mother Su was stuck in a dilemma.
Su Qian grabbed onto her mother’s sleeve. “Mother, I’m fine. This man is probably too anxious.”
Xu Xin nodded at Su Qian and pushed Shi Qing down the stairs. “Boss, this pair of mother and daughter from the Su family are too good at prancing. Do you think we should deal with them?”

Shi Qing knocked on the armrest of the wheelchair. “No need. She wants to do it herself.” A moment later, Shi Qing asked again, “Have you decided on the people sent to protect Xixi?”
“Yes, Boss. I’ve already placed them beside Miss Yun.”
Shi Qing changed his posture as the phrase ‘Miss Yun’ pleased him. After a short conversation, they were led to Su Yan’s lounge.
“Done? Let’s go then.” Su Yan packed up her things and was a little impatient. “I’m so happy that I can study again.”
“It’s rare to see a student like Xixi who likes to study.”
Su Yan let out a long sigh. “I have no choice. The college entrance examination is coming soon. I’ll learn as much as I can.”
The three of them walked out of the lounge and bumped into Mother Su and Su Qian. Su Qian felt a little upset when she saw that Su Yan was indeed with this man. Should she be happy that Su Yan would not snatch Huo Nan from her, or should she be angry that Su Yan had found a man with a better family background?
“Big Sister, you really came with this gentleman.” Su Qian lowered her eyes. “You should be more careful, you can’t let Brother Huo Nan down.”
Mother Su continued, “Who knows what your sister is thinking? She probably doesn’t feel content with just one man, so she doesn’t want to let any of them go.” As she said this, Mother Su covered her mouth and chuckled. “Don’t end up with neither side gaining anything, then it will be all for nothing.”
She had already expected that Mother Su would say something bad, but Su Yan was not angry. Instead, Shi Qing was furious. He pulled Xu Xin over and instructed in a low voice, “Cut off all cooperation with the Su family and snatch all their clients.”
Shi Qing secretly hated himself. Why didn’t he find his Xixi earlier? What kind of life did she lead in the Su family?
Su Qian softly said, “If Big Sister wants to see the jewelry, you can tell us. Wouldn’t it be better if we came together?”
“Forget it. With you, I’m afraid I won’t be able to get a single item.” Seeing that she could not leave for the time being, Su Yan sat back on the sofa. “Do you still remember when we went out to buy clothes a while ago? In the end, I didn’t buy any of the clothes I picked because you said you wanted to wear something different from me.”
Su Yan smiled. “But why didn’t you change it and insist that I don’t buy it?”
Su Qian froze, unable to explain herself. The blind man sitting in the wheelchair turned around and looked at her with a gaze as sharp as an eagle’s that made Su Qian feel flustered. This man was clearly blind, how could he make her so flustered?
“Su Qian, don’t be so hypocritical,” Su Yan sneered. “Not everyone is willing to spoil you.”
With that, Su Yan added meaningfully, “Also, did you mention Huo Nan just now? When you said that, did you not feel guilty?”
Su Qian took a step back. What did Su Yan mean by that? She knew about her relationship with Huo Nan? No, no way.

After forcing herself to calm down, Su Qian saw Su Yan holding a hotel room card in her hand. As she focused her gaze on it, she realized that this room card belonged to the hotel she and Huo Nan went to yesterday.
Su Yan did not expect this room card to be put to use so quickly. When Shi Qing gave her the room card just now, Su Yan did not know what use it had. Su Yan turned to look at the man who was still as calm as ever. She wondered if he had already planned for this to happen. Was that why he had prepared everything beforehand?
Su Yan’s words stirred up a hornet’s nest. Mother Su could not stand it when her daughter was slandered, so she got furious in an instant.
Father Su’s warning just now had long been forgotten by Mother Su. She spoke without thinking, “You little b*tch, what are you talking about? Don’t randomly slander others, don’t think that everyone is like you. You little b*tch, do you have any evidence to prove what you are saying? Our Qianqian is such a good girl, how can you slander her?” The more Mother Su spoke, the angrier she got. She was so excited that she wanted to scratch Suyan’s face.
Su Yan fiddled with the room card in her hand and stared at Su Qian with her beautiful eyes. “Oh? Am I truly slandering her?”
