In her previous life, Su Li lived simply. Her husband, Shao Ting'an, was gentle and refined, and they were an affectionate couple praised by everyone. Her student Zhao Xinran, whom she treated ...
Chapter 184 Raised her, but made her suffer so much
Su Li didn't want to worry her mother, so she secretly wiped the tears from her face and said with a smile, "What could it be? It's just a small misunderstanding. I've already explained it clearly."
There was a choked voice and traces of crying on her face, but a smile was still on her lips.
Liu Guilan felt heartbroken when she saw this.
"Mom, I'm really fine. It's all over. Tomorrow will be another happy day."
Liu Guilan originally wanted to comfort her daughter, but ended up being brought to tears by her.
"Silly girl, you are our family's treasure, you don't have to be so sensible."
As he said this, he held his daughter in his arms.
Late at night, when Su Danian returned to his room, Liu Guilan leaned against the head of the bed with complicated thoughts.
"Old man, do you think we haven't taken good care of our daughter?"
"Isn't it obvious? The child has suffered so much and been wronged!"
"Tell me, we raised this girl, but she suffered so much. How can we be worthy of her?"
Su Danian patted his wife's hand and said, "My daughter has a miserable life. She was separated from her family when she was young. I didn't expect that after getting married, she would meet that scumbag Shao Ting'an."
Li Guilan sighed, "Do you think Xiaoli's biological parents have looked for her?"
Su Danian said in an unhappy tone, "Whose child is not the apple of their parents' eyes? How could they not look for him?"
"That's right. Xiaoli was less than two years old at the time, but the way she dressed didn't look like an ordinary child."
"I've been keeping an eye out for missing persons notices over the years, in newspapers, on TV, and on the radio, but I haven't heard anything about the information."
Liu Guilan comforted her husband, "Don't dwell on it. Everything is about fate. This child is destined for us. After so many years, her family must have given up on looking for her."
"Thanks to our neighbors for keeping this secret for us all these years. We didn't tell our child, otherwise she would have been burdened."
Su Danian sighed deeply and said, "Don't mention this matter in the future. No one is looking for her. Our daughter is ours, the darling of our Su family."
Liu Guilan nodded, "Let's not talk about it, but her relationship with Dr. Fu is not as simple as she said."
"Let's go find Xiaomo tomorrow. If she has something she's not comfortable telling us, she'll definitely be willing to talk to her. Let her talk it over. She's feeling bad."
"Okay, I'll go find Xiaomo tomorrow morning. This girl looks fine on the outside, but she's actually the one with the most trouble."
The old couple was worried about their daughter and couldn't fall asleep for a long time, sighing.
Fu Jinzhou returned to the hospital in a daze. Xu Mingzhe saw his condition and knew it must be related to Su Li.
After all, during the time he was away, Chang Kun had already briefly told him about Fu Jinzhou's situation.
Xu Mingzhe felt bad when he saw Fu Jinzhou's distraught look.
He turned around and went out to buy a bottle of wine. When he came back, he dragged Fu Jinzhou towards the dormitory without saying anything.
"Let's go. Uncle Chang and the nurses are in the ward. We're not needed. Let's have a couple of drinks and relax!"
In the dormitory, Xu Mingzhe poured the wine and handed a jar to Fu Jinzhou.
"Come on, brother, don't say anything, just do it!"
Xu Mingzhe tilted his head back and took a big gulp.
Fu Jinzhou mechanically took the jar, but did not drink it. He just stared blankly at the wine in his hand.
The wine swayed slightly, reflecting his haggard face and bloodshot eyes.
"Jinzhou, I know you feel bad."
Xu Mingzhe put down the jar and patted Fu Jinzhou on the shoulder.
"But, matters of the heart cannot be rushed."
"You're just too afraid of losing, so you plunged into it and can't get out."
"But at this point, no matter how much you want to hold onto Su Li, it's useless. One is Su Li's own fault, and the other is external. If these two are not resolved, it will be difficult for the two of you to be together."
Fu Jinzhou suddenly raised his head and drank the entire jar of white wine in one breath.
The spicy liquid slid down his throat, as if to burn away the pent-up fire in his chest.
"Mingzhe, tell me, Su Li...does she have me in her heart?"
Fu Jinzhou's voice was extremely hoarse, with a barely perceptible tremor.
Xu Mingzhe looked at him and said seriously:
"Jinzhou, you've been with her for so long, if you can't even confirm this, then you deserve to never get married."
"I can feel that she has me in her heart."
Fu Jinzhou finished talking to himself, raised his hand and took another sip of wine.
"Since you're so sure, don't pursue her so closely. She's been through so much and been hurt so deeply. She needs time to heal and to believe in love and marriage again."
Fu Jinzhou's eyes flickered, as if he saw a faint light in the darkness.
"But, she told me today that she will never get married again in her life."
"She even told me...told me to forget her, saying that Lin Wanyi was a good woman..."
Fu Jinzhou's voice was filled with pain and confusion.
Xu Mingzhe frowned, "Are you stupid? You believe what a woman says?"
"She's saying this now because she doesn't want to delay you because of herself. Besides, Grandpa Fu has already come to her house, and Wanyi's conditions are indeed good. She must be under a lot of pressure."
Seeing Fu Jinzhou lowering his eyes and remaining silent, Xu Mingzhe poured him another glass of wine.
"Listen to my friend's advice, don't rush her and don't force her to make a decision."
"The most important thing for you now is to cure your grandfather's illness."
"Wait until you've taken care of your family affairs, then come back and plan slowly."
Fu Jinzhou was silent. He picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.
Xu Mingzhe looked at him and continued:
"Go back and take care of things at home first. This is also an opportunity for both of you to calm down and let Su Li see her heart clearly. She is not someone who will give up easily. If you come back, maybe there will be a different result."
Fu Jinzhou raised his head and looked at Xu Mingzhe, the dead silence in his eyes was tinged with a starlight.
"You're right. I was too impatient. The moment the transfer order came down, I was completely confused."
Xu Mingzhe nodded.
"You're just too obsessed with the situation. You always want Su Li's approval, but you don't really solve the problem. You need to let her be with you without any burden, instead of carrying a heavy baggage."
Fu Jinzhou nodded, his eyes firm.
"I know what to do now, thank you!"
Xu Mingzhe smiled and patted his shoulder.
"Oh, it's rare that you, Fu Jinzhou, would thank me."
"Come on, drink!"
The two men clinked their jars together and drank it all in one gulp.
As the night deepened in the dormitory, the two men talked heart to heart, spoke less and less, and drank more and more.
Fu Jinzhou felt much more relieved and knew that he couldn't be impatient now.
He had to solve the problems at home first and give Su Li some quiet space.
He believed that one day, Su Li would accept his love.
Where there is sincerity, even metal and stone can be opened!
However, what worries him most now is the obstruction from his family. He has to find a way to resolve this matter as soon as possible.
Otherwise, if you keep disturbing Su Li, it will only push Su Li further away.
