Su Li had his suspicions, perhaps it was due to him that the change ca early.
Su Li avoided responding, the original owner’s identity wasn’t particularly famous, and soon, the heat of the matter was overshadowed by new gossip.
In this case, Susan was extrely dissatisfied.
Why was she so worried and frightened, while nothing bad happened to Su Li?
Now, Lan Tian had arranged a new place for her, a two-bedroom apartnt. The Su Family’s parents were temporarily living with her.
That day, she timidly approached Mrs. Su, who was cooking in the kitchen, and asked with a lancholic expression, "Aunt, has Su Li contacted you yet?"
Mrs. Su’s hand paused while chopping vegetables, and she forced a smile, "Why bring up that heartless one? After what she did, you’re still thinking about her?"
"Don’t ntion her, I just pretend that I don’t have such a daughter...." Mrs. Su said a few resentful words, then quickly changed her expression, softened her face, and said to Susan, "You go wait outside, I’ll make your favorite sweet and sour pork...."
Mrs. Su smiled and ushered Susan out of the kitchen. Returning to the cutting board, she picked up the knife again but was absent-minded, her thoughts scattered.
She was used to indulging this child of her sister, gave in as soon as Susan pleaded softly a few tis.
She even took it for granted that her decisions were correct.
But now that ti had passed, with Su Li completely disappearing without a trace, her heart began to panic gradually.
Used to her daughter’s expectant gaze, used to always seeing her daughter when she turned around, used to... the sudden absence now left an empty, unrooted sense of panic spreading in her heart.
She would subconsciously keep checking her phone.
After all this talk about her on cara, why hasn’t she received an angry call from the child?
In the past, wasn’t her greatest desire their attention?
When the first of the month ca, there were no bank notification ssages.
Susan, pushed out of the kitchen by Mrs. Su, squeezed back in after a few minutes.
"Aunt, my credit card repaynt is due in a couple of days. I don’t have enough money right now. Could you lend so?"
Susan tugged at Mrs. Su’s hand, pleading softly.
With everything happening lately, Aunt and Uncle seed to have forgotten the financial support they used to give her.
Nowadays, online shopping is so convenient, even at ho you can shop to your heart’s content, and Susan’s credit card had already been heavily overdrawn.
"Su Yun, give Xiao Shan a little more money; a girl should have so cash for confidence."
Mrs. Su suddenly felt uncomfortable, and her thoughts turned to her daughter.
Hesitant, she said awkwardly, "Xiao Shan, you should try to spend less recently. Your aunt doesn’t have much money left either."
"Our living expenses here are high, and with things like this, Su Li is no longer sending money to your uncle and . We..."
Chen Ran’s face fell in disgrace, "That brat, how dare she...."
"Chen Ran, that brat you’re talking about is your own daughter." Mrs. Su said expressionlessly.
Chen Ran was taken aback, looking a bit dumbfounded, struggling to explain, "You, didn’t you also...."
Mrs. Su suddenly found it tasteless, she turned away to lean on the counter, silent.
Susan: "Aunt, Uncle, don’t be like this... Don’t argue because of . I, I’ll just borrow temporarily and return it once I have money."
Susan bit her lip, looking pitiful, but her words were chilling, "Otherwise, I’ll have to use what my mother left ...." Susan seed embarrassed to say it, hesitating and mumbling, "I am an adult now, I can handle it myself."
In Mrs. Su and Chen Ran’s ears, the aning was unmistakably clear.
Mrs. Su turned her head sharply to Susan, eyes wide in disbelief, asking, "Do you think we pocketed the money your mother left you?"
"No, that’s not what I an." Susan said it wasn’t her aning, but in her heart, she believed it.
The Su Family couple had been through a lot, knowing not to be muddled in anything but their children’s affairs.
Chen Ran: "Xiao Shan is right, she’s an adult and should know what assets the Su Family has."
"Anyway, everything here after us should be hers to inherit."
"But the only house we have is the one we live in now. Besides that, so fixed funds and stocks, not much at all.... As for savings..." Chen Ran awkwardly, "Savings really aren’t much. We spent most of it on you two over the years."
They were just an ordinary small family, with two girls wanting to enter the entertainnt industry, spending fiercely.
They had borrowed a lot initially, if Su Li hadn’t started making money and sent money ho every month to support, they probably wouldn’t even have savings, just debt.
"Ah, is that so." Susan smiled awkwardly.
Though she said nothing, she was dismissive inside, untrusting of the Su Family’s words.
"Su Yun, how much money do you have now? Transfer it to Xiao Shan, let her settle her credit card."
Mrs. Su felt uneasy, surprisingly so.
Previously, it all seed natural to take care of Susan, her beloved sister’s daughter, but now.....
Habit turned nature, Mrs. Su though discorded, hesitated but couldn’t refuse.
"Aunt, better find Su Li quickly, I won’t bla her for that incident.... We’re family after all."
Susan’s well-crafted words greatly moved Chen Ran, even softened Mrs. Su.
"Don’t bother with her, you see her as a sister, but she doesn’t see you as family, let her stay outside." Chen Ran said coldly.
After speaking, Chen Ran, realizing, glanced nervously at Mrs. Su, fearing her frown.
Mrs. Su hesitated, sighed heavily, "Though Su Li was wrong, she should apologize to you, Xiao Shan."
The implication was that she was swayed by Susan’s suggestion.
Susan barely smiled, while inside she felt both hatred and anger.
Blood is thicker than water; though they seed furious for her before, not long after, she remained in thought.
Susan’s hatred, the Su Family couple had yet to uncover.
Each carried their own sches and thoughts.
No matter their machinations, without the main character on stage, the drama couldn’t play out.
