Chapter 44: Buying a cane for my brother after quarreling
Walking out of the hospital and into the shade of the trees, Su Sangwan shook off Jian Sili's hand, took a deep breath, and prepared to leave.
"Wanwan."
Jian Sili pulled her back and said flatteringly, "Can we go home and have lunch together at noon?"
Su Sangwan thought for a moment and got into the car with a cold face.
Jian Sili sighed slightly and walked to the driver's seat to act as the driver.
Ever since that night, Su Sangwan had been on a one-sided cold war with him. She didn't even smile, not even a word, and seemed to have lost her soul. It wasn't until she received the news that Jian Yi had woken up that she finally regained some energy.
This couple, who were once the envy of others, now walked in silence all the way.
Back at Sang Wan's villa, Jian Sili took off his suit jacket, put on an apron, and planned to cook himself to show his sincerity.
He was busy in the kitchen. When he looked into the living room through the smoke, he saw Su Sangwan pulling her suitcase and preparing to leave.
Jian Sili quickly turned off the fire and rushed out, "Where are you going?"
Su Sangwan ignored him and walked to the door with her suitcase, but was finally stopped by Jian Sili.
"Are you still angry?"
"I'm sorry, I've explained to you before, I really didn't know that Mama Liu drugged you."
Su Sangwan tried to shake off his shackles, but failed after several attempts.
"Let me go!"
"I won't let go."
The president of the Jian Group was now acting like a scoundrel in front of his wife. "I know I didn't tell you in advance about borrowing Suisui to help the company restore its reputation. I'm sorry for embarrassing you. I'll personally apologize to Gao Li and Suisui someday. This is all my fault."
Hearing this, Su Sangwan sneered sarcastically, "So President Jian needs to pick a day to apologize? Come, calculate which day in the future would be auspicious for an apology."
She still can't forget that morning. She opened her phone and scrolled down the bar, which showed videos and pictures of their trip the day before. They even made it to the hot search list.
Right next to that happy entry was Jian Yi’s car accident.
Logically speaking, Jian Yi is not a person in the entertainment industry. Since he broke his leg, he has almost retired from the business circle. His car accident will not become a hot topic.
But coincidentally, Su Sangwan brought them to the hot search that day, making them familiar to the audience.
Su Sangwan flipped through the photos that were taken, her fingertips trembling.
She knew the uniqueness of her identity and had deliberately disguised herself when she went out for the day. She was indeed recognized by one or two fans that day, but they were only a few people and it was far from enough to cause a sensation to become a hot topic.
This looks like a pre-planned plot.
Orphans, shelter, charity, Jane's Group...
These words danced in the air, each one forcefully piercing into her pupils.
Su Sangwan didn't have time to think about it, nor did she dare to think about it, so she rushed to the hospital.
That was the first time she saw Xiao Suisui pushing her so cautiously and inappropriately.
"You're a bad guy! Get out of here!"
The child didn't understand the relationship between adults. He only knew that something happened after he returned from her place that night, so he naturally thought she was a bad person.
Gao Li stopped Sui Sui and told her that Jian Yi was still in danger and asked her to go back.
Although Gao Li knew that she didn't know these things, he obviously didn't want to talk to her any more.
The relationship that was intended to be eased returned to its starting point overnight.
She is like a knife. If someone uses her to stab someone, can she say that she is innocent because she did not stab him?
Then the person she stabbed was innocent.
She was innocently exploited and took the blame, but Gao Li and Jian Yi were indeed harmed because of her usefulness.
For so many days, I have been thinking, if Jian Yi wakes up, does it mean that her sins can still be redeemed?
Jian Sili: "..."
"Don't talk like that. I know what I did was despicable and dishonest, so I didn't dare tell you frankly. This is just this once, and I won't do it again."
Su Sangwan raised the corner of her mouth, revealing a hint of a sneer, but her eyes were full of disappointment.
"Did you consider my situation before you decided to use me? How should I face the trolls after they've considered you? You're just trying to save the company's reputation by throwing me out there and roasting me."
"This is Jian Zhengyuan's idea, right? He's transferred you and everything is arranged. I'm just a pawn, ready to be put wherever I'm needed."
Speaking of his father, a trace of panic flashed in Jian Sili's eyes.
"I didn't know his plan. When he transferred me, I really thought it was a work trip. I didn't know he had Liu Ma drug you. I didn't know he actually wanted to..."
He hated Jian Yi so much that after abandoning him in Qingshan Villa, he never saw him again except for that time in the hospital.
But he never had the thought of committing murder.
When he knew that his father had been poisoning Jian Yi and wanted to kill Jian Yi in a car accident, he felt cold all over.
Only then did he realize how cruel his father was.
The bright moisture blurred her eyes. Su Sangwan gritted her teeth and wiped away the tears, opening her red eyes.
"Your Jian family is a den of wolves and tigers. Your mother dislikes me and looks down on me. Your sister ridiculed me countless times before she was so headstrong. Your father used me time and time again, and now you're doing the same. I don't even know why I was so crazy to marry you! It's obvious that there's not a single good person in your Jian family!"
"Your dad is always taking his anger out on the nurses. He never thinks he did anything wrong, and you're still trying to pick an auspicious day to apologize. How ridiculous."
Tears fell intermittently, and Su Sangwan could no longer see Jian Sili's face.
"During the time Jian Yi was in a coma, I thought about it for a long time. I was wondering if there was any need for us to continue."
Jian Sili panicked, "What do you mean?"
"I was blinded by love at the beginning and was too obsessed with it. Now that the fog has cleared, I want to calm down. I don't want to be used as a pawn anymore. I don't want anyone from your Jian family to stab me in the back one day. So let it be."
Su Sangwan pulled the suitcase, opened the door, and dragged it into the yard.
Jian Sili ignored everything else and forcefully grabbed Su Sangwan. Afraid that his lover would slip away from him, he unconsciously squeezed harder, but ended up hurting the person he loved the most.
"Are you going to get a divorce? We've only been married for a short time. I don't agree!"
Su Sangwan frowned in pain. "I said, I want to calm down. During this period, I don't want to see you. If you insist on doing this, then let's get a divorce."
"I don't agree!"
"See you in court then."
Finally, Jian Sili stood there in despair, watching his lover pull the suitcase into the car and leave until she disappeared from his sight.
He didn't want to, but he had to let go.
The person he thought he could coax, this time left him and didn't want to see him anymore.

Gao Li was unaware that the male and female protagonists had a big fight and their relationship was in jeopardy.
She was currently shopping in the mall with Sui Sui, buying some food for the impolite 3.0 and some daily necessities.
People were coming and going in the mall. Suisui looked thoughtfully at an old lady with a cane passing by.
She pulled Gao Li's sleeve and said, "Sister, I'll buy my brother a cane. Maybe he can use it to walk and stop being angry with Sui Sui."
Gao Li was stunned.
——[Ah, this…]
She squatted down, rubbed her furry hair that had grown black over the years, typed text on her phone, and then converted it to voice.
[My brother has never been angry with Sui Sui. He just forgot about it temporarily because of something unexpected.]
No. 13: "Oh, the child has suffered. He didn't understand anything and subconsciously thought it was his fault. What kind of life did he live before?"
"Then if I buy him a cane, will he be happier?"
The little girl stared at him with her big, blinking eyes, and Gao Li took a deep breath.
——[Why is he so obsessed with crutches? Even though I bought him one, he can’t use it. Now he can only use a wheelchair.]
No. 13: "It doesn't matter. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future."
——[……]
She asked patiently.
[Why did Sui Sui buy a cane for his brother?]
"I...just saw that old lady and thought my brother could use it, so..."
Suisui looked at Gao Li's expression carefully. Seeing that her sister didn't move, she subconsciously waved her hand, her voice trembling slightly.
"I don't want it anymore. Don't be angry, sister. I don't spend money recklessly."
No. 13: "Buy it, buy it for her! It's just a crutch, right?"
"Look at what you've done to the little girl."
Gao Li was speechless and looked up at the sky.
——[……]
——[Please stop lying, I didn’t do anything.]
Gao Li was heartbroken by the little girl's subconscious and sensible behavior, so he took her to buy a crutch.
Although it is of no use now, it will come in handy in the future, so it is better to prepare for a rainy day.
Besides, it’s not like she can’t afford it. It’s worth buying the little girl’s smile.
Zhou Rong prepared spare clothes for Jian Yi during his hospital stay, so Gao Li only bought some food and drinks, including some for her to reward herself and Sui Sui.
After returning to the ward, Sui Sui couldn't wait to hand over the crutch, and was so careful and expectant that her little finger turned red.
As far as he can remember, Jian Yi has never interacted with children.
He really couldn't understand why his 2.0 self would take in a little kid.
He hesitated, thinking about what to say, when the voice of the woman next to him came crashing down on him.
——[Little girl, don’t you know that taking out this crutch is like stabbing your heart. Your brother will not be happy.]
——[What does that expression mean? Can’t you see that Xiao Sui Sui is very excited and cautious?]
——[If you dare to show me your disdain, I will take advantage of the dark night and strong wind to tear off your face and see if you dare to show me your disdain again!]
No. 13: “…”
The curse of its host is always so unique and bloody.
Jian Yi: “…”
Jian Yi pouted angrily, then took the gift and hummed.
——[Hmm? Just a "hmm"? Saying "thank you" will kill you, Jian Yi 3.0 is so rude.]
No. 13: "It's better to remember nothing like before. I miss Jian Yi 2.0. When will my memory return?"
——［How do I know? It’s better to restore the factory settings and restart.］
Jian Yi: “…”
He took a deep breath, his bones clearly showing as he clenched the snow-white quilt with his five fingers, and then loosened it with force.
He tried hard to pull the corners of his mouth to make it curve upward.
"Thanks."
At the end, he added reluctantly, almost through gritted teeth, "I like it very much."
If he didn't want to find out the current situation, he really wanted to knock this woman unconscious with a hammer.
