024 “Cherry [Teacher-Student H]” Chapter 23

25. I don’t know how to drink…

Sure enough, Su Ying made a fuss and wanted to go home the next day. Su Shinian was surprised, but when he saw his wife’s calm look, she seemed to suddenly understand something.

Xin Yuan walked over charmingly, stopped in front of the crying little man, bent down slightly, and looked into her moist eyes.

“Want to go home”

Su Ying nodded blankly.

“Of course…” She tried her best to smile as gently as possible, but she couldn’t help but feel the coldness on her lips, “But if you go back, your grandma’s illness will be incurable…”

How could ten-year-old Su Ying understand this? She looked at her stupidly.

“Your grandma is seriously ill, don’t you know?”

Su Ying replied sharply: “How is it possible that grandma is in good health? She…”

The words stopped abruptly, because many scenes appeared in her mind, including her grandmother’s violent coughing, bright red nosebleeds from time to time, and the appearance of her fainting on the ground.

“Your mother is not capable of treating her disease, but we can…” Xin Yuan guided her in a gentle tone, “As long as you stay here obediently, I can guarantee that your grandma will live a few more years.”

Su Ying’s little hands were intertwined between her legs, and they were pulling hard.

The little girl whispered, “I want to see grandma…”

“Okay.” Xin Yuan smiled lovingly, “If you obey, I will let you see grandma.”

Su Ying was calmed down by her few words and turned around to go back to her room.

Su Shinian walked over and said with difficulty: “Does it have to be like this?”

“Husband.” She called him sweetly, holding his arm affectionately. Her tone was very soft, but there was an obvious threat. “What did you promise me yesterday? Did you forget it so quickly?”

Su Shinian was teased, and now he understood. He coldly shook off her hand and went upstairs.

Xin Yuan looked at his back from behind, almost gritting her teeth.

If she could give birth on her own, how could she be willing to accept the child of her husband and his mistress.

But it is absolutely impossible for her to truly forgive.

When Su Ying entered the Su family, Xin Yuan called her her adopted daughter. Only the Su family knew her true identity. Xin Yuan’s people always bluntly called her the daughter of the mistress.

She didn’t believe anything that didn’t come from her mother’s mouth, so she didn’t bother to pay attention to those people. Gradually, she developed an unusually cold temperament, treating everyone with indifference and disdain.

When she was 15 years old, Su Ying was already so graceful and graceful that anyone who saw her would find her extremely beautiful.

It was from this time on that she became Xin Yuan’s social card, accompanying Xin Yuan to various wine shops and dinners. She didn’t need to drink or even eat, she just had to sit aside, smile, suppress the nausea that was coming, and let those greasy old men shoot back and forth on her.

Generally speaking, as long as Su Ying is brought along, no matter how big the business is, Xin Yuan can successfully negotiate it.

How could Su Ying accept this kind of thing with her personality, but Xin Yuan would despicably threaten Su Ying with her grandmother’s body.

Grandma’s illness is inseparable from expensive treatment. Once it stops, her life will be exhausted in an instant.

She only had her grandmother left as a relative in this world, and she couldn’t bear to let her go.

The second year after Su Ying came to the Su family, Mu Jin was admitted to the hospital due to severe depression. A month later, she wore her favorite cheongsam, swallowed a whole bottle of sleeping pills, lay peacefully on the bed, and died in her sleep.

Su Ying still can’t figure out why her mother committed suicide. Did she really have nothing to worry about? But she clearly still had her and her grandmother, how could she just abandon them and leave.

So no matter what, she would not allow her grandmother to leave her again. Because of this, she would choose to compromise every time she faced Xin Yuan’s threats.

But even if she didn’t do anything, she still felt dirty. It seemed that what she betrayed was never her body and appearance, but her pure soul.

After her grandmother left, Xin Yuan went to the United States, and she stayed clean for two years.

But she suddenly came back and wanted to do the same thing as before. Su Ying thought, maybe she was really out of her mind.

Xin Yuan quickly sent someone to deliver an expensive dress, and the card that came with it also had the address of the banquet.

On time, she appeared in front of the most luxurious hotel in City A, wearing an elegant tube top dress and exquisite makeup.

When she opened the door, the people inside were chatting animatedly. Xin Yuan was the first to notice her. She stood up in a hurry and came over to greet her. She scolded her in a gentle tone: “Why are you here so late? My uncles have been waiting for you for a long time.”

Su Ying turned over and glanced at the green eyes of a group of hungry wolves as expected. But what was strange was that this time there was a young person, wearing a simple shirt and trousers, and wearing elegant gold-rimmed glasses. His eyes fell on her, which was a bit surprising.

She didn’t say anything and sat on a seat far away from Xin Yuan. Xin Yuan was very dissatisfied, but it was hard to get angry in front of so many people, so she let her go.

A bald old man sighed: “I never thought that Mr. Xin would hide such a beautiful daughter. It’s an honor to see her today…”

“Mr. Yu is joking. This girl in my family is good at everything, but her temper is a bit cold.” She turned her head to look at Su Ying and said in a low voice: “I haven’t toasted to Uncle Yu yet and apologized.”

Su Ying smiled sweetly and said softly, “I don’t know how to drink…”

Xin Yuan gritted her teeth angrily, “Su Ying…”

The young man opened his mouth to help her out: “Miss Su doesn’t want to drink, so why do you have to force Mr. Xin? We in the Yu family never like to force others to do things.”

Xin Yuan suppressed her anger and smiled sarcastically, “Master Yu said that.”

Su Ying glanced at the man in a rare moment. He raised his thin lips and gestured towards her with the wine glass, saying that she didn’t need to care.

Su Ying had experienced this kind of dinner countless times, and she could already listen to them complimenting each other without changing her expression. From time to time, she would bring the topic to her and make fun of her, and then look at Xin Yuan’s flattering and ridiculous look with cold eyes.

Halfway through the meal, the box door was suddenly pushed open.

Walking in was a woman with a dignified posture. She had a strong aura and attracted people’s attention to Xin Yuan.

“It’s really you, Xinyuan.”

Xin Yuan, who was raising a toast, was stunned for a moment, and uttered two words in surprise, “Sister.”

The woman’s eyes glanced away from Su Ying, very lightly, but with obvious contempt.

“I’m right next door, you can come over later.” She looked away in frustration and sneered at the corner of her mouth, “Oh, remember to bring your baby girl with you.”
