On the first day Chu Xun was transferred to a regular ward, Su Xiangxiang also ended her detention.

She was unaware of what had happened outside, and the first thing she did after coming out was to go to the hospital to find out about Chu Xun.

"You're out?"

"what are you doing here?"

"Are you aware of the upheaval in the Su family?"

Madam Chu immediately bombarded Su Xiangxiang with three questions, which puzzled her, but her biggest concern was Chu Xun: "Auntie, how is Brother Chu Xun?"

With so many experts around, Brother Chu Xun should be alright now.

Madam Chu initially thought she was incredibly foolish. The family she had lived in for eighteen years no longer wanted her, her former identity no longer belonged to her, and all the care and love everyone had shown her had been taken away, yet she was completely unaware of it all.

But seeing the undisguised concern and anxiety in her eyes, I felt that being a little foolish was acceptable.

She said, "Chu Xun is fine now and has been moved to a regular ward."

With half a leg amputated, spleen gone, and half a stomach missing, there's no way he could be alright.

But that's all they can say to outsiders.

Su Xiangxiang thought that "it's alright" really meant it, so she breathed a long sigh of relief. "That's good. I knew that Brother Chu Xun was a lucky man and would definitely turn danger into safety!"

Madam Chu liked to hear these words, but they did not comfort her.

Su Xiangxiang suggested that she could go in and see Chu Xun, saying she would only take a quick look and then come out, but Madam Chu still refused.

She lingered outside the ward for a long time.

All the doctors, nurses, and patients who recognized her were whispering among themselves, looking wary and defensive. Hospital security also arrived and escorted Su Xiangxiang out of the hospital.

Su Xiangxiang's angry rebuke of the security guard's actions at the hospital entrance attracted a crowd of onlookers who were unaware of the situation and sympathized with her.

Seeing this, the security guard took the opportunity to mention that she had been detained for ten days for buying sleeping pills at a high price to poison an expert. In an instant, sympathy turned into judgment, and people looked at her as if she were a murderer.

"Xiangxiang, over here!"

Finally, Zhao Chen stepped in and led Su Xiangxiang away from the crowd.

In the car, Zhao Chen told Su Xiangxiang everything he knew that had happened in the past ten days.

"How many?"

"How could she possibly have scored so high?"

Su Xiangxiang didn't want to know her score at all. Before the exam, she had hinted countless times that if she could get a high score, it would be a great bonus for the Su family.

But the usually clever Su family seemed deaf and dumb when it came to this matter, ignoring her requests.

She's not aiming to be the top scorer in the college entrance exam.

She just wanted her family to help her cheat on the exam so she could get a good score.

But they wouldn't even grant her this small wish.

Su Shaoze even warned her to stop having any crooked ideas. He said that if her grades were different from usual and if evidence of cheating was found, they would not cover it up or show favoritism, but would directly call the police.

That's why she did nothing.

As a result, the title of top scholar, which she never dared to dream of, fell to Yan Can.

But this wasn't what Su Xiangxiang cared about most. What she couldn't let go of was that the Su family had revealed Yan Can's identity ahead of schedule, even though the original plan was to do so in July.

She asked about what happened that day.

Zhao Chen said, "I don't know the specifics; I just heard it from others. The security at the venue was very strict. All guests were not allowed to take photos, and they hired a professional photographer..."

"This picture is so blurry you wouldn't recognize it?" Su Xiangxiang looked at the screen, her tone dismissive.

Even in the blurry image, it's clear that everyone is surrounding Yan Can, and the gentle gazes of the Su family members are all focused on Yan Can alone.

Surrounded by stars, shining as brightly as the stars.

Zhao Chen said, "No way, the photographer took a fantastic picture."

He spoke directly, not noticing that Su Xiangxiang's eyes were clouded by hatred, and continued to explain: "The picture you mentioned was taken by Su Shaoyang. He takes a lot of pictures like this and posts one every now and then. They're all over the internet."

It's too blurry; you can't see the guests' faces at all.

But each one is surprisingly expressive, allowing everyone to see the girl surrounded and loved through the blurred perspective.

After that, Zhao Chen talked about birthday gifts and the top scorer bonus, but Su Xiangxiang couldn't hear any of it.

She stared intently at Yan Can's blurry yet happy face in the photo.

It would be better if Yan Can died.

Once Yan Can dies, everything will return to normal.

Later, Zhao Chen asked her where she was going, but after asking several times without getting an answer, he said he would pick her up and take her to his house. Just as he was about to drive off, Su Xiangxiang gave him an address.

...

Who are you looking for?

Ye Lan was sorting through the trash she had collected when she turned around and saw Su Xiangxiang, dressed in designer clothes but looking haggard. She was stunned for a moment.

Su Xiangxiang: "I am your daughter."

Ye Lan glanced at her and then lowered her head again.

Su Xiangxiang thought she was too happy to react, so she repeated her identity and emphasized Yan Can's status in the Su family.

But she was disappointed.

Ye Lan still didn't react.

The ecstasy she had imagined was not there, and Ye Lan did not grab her to ask for Yan Can's contact information or the Su family's address.

Even when she tried to persuade Ye Lan to expose the incident to the media and coerce Yan Can into returning, Ye Lan remained unmoved.

"He's deaf again!"

Su Xiangxiang was furious.

It's one thing for the Su family to ignore her, but why does Ye Lan also treat her the same way?

However, at that moment, a dark shadow flashed before her eyes, and someone pounced on her, quickly tearing off her earrings and necklace. The moment her bracelet was removed, Su Xiangxiang screamed, and Zhao Chen outside rushed over and kicked Ye Lan away.

Su Xiangxiang looked at her wrist, which was red from being strangled, and then at Ye Lan, who was clinging tightly to those things on the ground. Suddenly, she realized that she might have made a wrong decision.

Wanting Yan Can to die is very simple.

Ye Lan isn't needed; anyone can do it.

The Su family protected Yan Can very well, but even the wisest can make mistakes. They couldn't be perfect in everything, and they certainly couldn't keep Yan Can under their watchful eyes all the time.

If she seizes that opportunity, she can put Yan Can to death.

On the other hand, Ye Lan is unemployed, penniless, and brainless, possessing only greed and desire. She can not be used as a weapon; instead, she will be dragged into the mire.

After thinking it through, Su Xiangxiang turned and left.

Zhao Chen, who claimed to know what she was thinking, came to Ye Lan's side and warned, "Don't even think about clinging to her, or you'll die."

die?

Ye Lan smiled.

If she can't survive, why would she be afraid of death?

What she feared was only...

Thinking of a tall, thin, yet terrifying figure, Ye Lan's face instantly turned terrified.

She muttered as she backed away.

"I don't understand what she's saying."

"I did not harm Yan Can."

"No!"
