Si Nan's mind was full of questions.
When did my second uncle get married?
Second aunt is Li Xuemei, Su Xi's mother.
Is Su Xi now his cousin?
Oh my god!
This world is fantastical.
how so?
Si Nan couldn't accept the truth at all and moved closer to Su Xi, "Xi'er, is what he said true?"
"What's real?" Su Xi feigned ignorance.
Si Nan said, "This man said you are not worthy to be my second uncle's daughter. Are you my second uncle's child?"
"no."
Su Xi did not admit it.
This made Shi Yao even more agitated. "How could you not be? Li Xueli is your mother, and you and your godfather are father and daughter."
Si Nan was even more bewildered.
Who is Li Xueli?
"Even if that's the case, so what?" Su Xi looked at Shi Yao coldly and laughed mockingly. "He has never fulfilled his responsibilities as a father, so why should I acknowledge him as my father?"
These words left Shi Yao speechless.
My adoptive father sacrificed too much for his mission throughout his life.
It was because of her adoptive father's departure that Su Xi and her mother suffered so much injustice back then.
Su Xi hated her adoptive father.
excusable.
But her godfather had just shielded her from a knife and bled; was her heart made of stone? How could she remain unmoved?
"No, it sounds a bit confusing to me," Si Nan said, still not quite in the zone.
Zhou Jingming pulled him aside and explained the whole story.
Upon learning the truth, Si Nan stood frozen in shock for a long time.
"So, Li Xuemei also has a twin sister. In a jealous fight, she pushed her own sister off a cliff, kept her sister's daughter by her side, concealed her true parentage, and abused her from childhood to adulthood?"
Zhou Jingming nodded, "The brain your mother gave you is passable."
"Damn~"
Si Nan retorted, "Su Xi is my cousin, so wouldn't you be my cousin's husband, Young Master Zhou?"
After saying that, Si Nan deliberately teased, "Quick, call him cousin!"
"Get out!" Zhou Jingming's face was filled with murderous intent.
"Hey! How disrespectful! How can you talk to your cousin-in-law like that?" Si Nan played the role of the cousin, portraying the character convincingly.
Zhou Jingming said "noisy" and pushed him aside, then strolled closer to Shi Yao.
The danger warning continued: "I'll cripple you and leave you to fend for yourself on the mountain. You're quite resilient, since you didn't die."
With blood in his mouth, Shi Yao laughed wildly, "Heaven didn't send me to hell, so it spared my life to kill you."
"Such a stubborn mouth, looks like you haven't had enough of beatings yet."
Zhou Jingming forcefully raised his foot and kicked Shi Yao hard in the stomach.
Shi Yao was already injured and could not withstand this blow.
Xu Yuan spat out a mouthful of blood. "Zhou Jingming, if you have the guts, kill me now. Otherwise, if I find an opportunity, I will tear you to pieces."
"Si Nan, your chance to redeem yourself has come. Deal with him."
Zhou Jingming gave instructions to Si Nan.
Si Nan complained, "I'm your cousin-in-law. Is it appropriate for you to make me handle this kind of thing?"
“If you say another inappropriate word, I’ll beat you up too,” Zhou Jingming threatened fiercely.
Si Nan shuddered violently.
When Zhou Jingming goes crazy, he becomes ruthless and doesn't recognize his own family; he's no different from a madman.
It's best not to provoke him at this crucial moment, lest you get yourself into trouble.
"So I'm really going to do it?" Si Nan asked hesitantly.
The person in front of me is my second uncle's adopted son.
He could be considered half a sworn brother.
If he were to actually fight and seriously injure someone, his second uncle would definitely not let him off the hook.
"Move," Zhou Jingming ordered.
Si Nan walked up to Shi Yao and said with great sympathy, "Of all people to mess with, you had to mess with Young Master Zhou. Even if you are Second Uncle's adopted son, I can't protect you."
Si Nan couldn't bear to do it himself, so he called his bodyguards and had Shi Yao thrown out of the hospital for treatment.
Only then did the corridor become quiet.
Si Nan, however, kept gossiping around Su Xi, "I thought I might have cousins in the future, but I never expected that my cousin would be you."
"Su Xi, from now on I'm your older brother. If you need any help, just ask your cousin. Although I'm not as rich as Young Master Zhou, I can still help you fight and take care of those bastards."
Zhou Jingming scoffed, "If my wife needs help, she'll come to me. It's none of your business."
“She’s my cousin, it’s only right for me to protect my sister,” Si Nan retorted.
The two men argued back and forth face to face, leaving Su Xi speechless. "Enough, stop arguing."
"Su Xi, call me 'brother' and let me hear it," Si Nan said in a very irritating way.
Su Xi showed no mercy and slapped him hard, saying, "I didn't admit it."
"They've already said you're my second uncle's daughter, you have to admit it whether you want to or not." Si Nan shamelessly tried to get Su Xi to change her mind.
Su Xi had no intention of acknowledging Situ's identity.
Naturally, they wouldn't call it "Sinan" (a type of ancient Chinese compass).
"You believe what others say?" Su Xi pinched the bridge of her nose.
“You and my second uncle have the same blood type, there’s no mistake. Besides, Young Master Zhou has also admitted that you are my cousin.” Si Nan has decided that Su Xi is his sister.
What excited him most was that Zhou Jingming's status had been downgraded.
You have to call him brother-in-law.
Thinking of this, Si Nan felt an indescribable sense of pride.
Su Xi refused to call out "Si Nan".
This made Si Nan very frustrated. "What exactly did my second uncle do wrong that you're unwilling to acknowledge him as your father?"
“The mistake he made is huge!” Su Xi sneered.
“If it’s because he left without saying goodbye back then, I think my second uncle must have had his reasons.” Si Nan spoke well of Situ. “My second uncle is a responsible man. He would never do something like abandoning his wife and daughter. I believe him.”
yes.
There's a reason for it.
But no matter how great his troubles were, they could not compare to the importance of his wife and daughters.
Su Xi was no longer interested in hearing these excuses. She waved her hand and said, "If there's nothing else, Si Nan, you stay and take care of your second uncle. We'll be leaving now."
Gang Lin also said that Situ was no longer seriously injured.
Now that Si Nan is here, there's no point in her staying any longer.
“Su Xi, I know you have resentment in your heart, but my second uncle is really not that kind of man,” Si Nan was still making a last-ditch effort.
Su Xi stopped in her tracks.
She also knew that Situ might be a good person.
But he would never be a good husband or a good father.
She ultimately did not linger and left the hospital with Zhou Jingming.
As Zhou Jingming brushed past Si Nan, he patted Si Nan's back lightly, saying, "Xi'er has suffered so much in the Su family; it can't be made up for with just a simple excuse."
"Si Nan, if you really want them to recognize each other, then you should let Situ explain what happened back then."
Zhou Jingming understands Su Xi.
It's not that she's heartless.
Instead, Situ kept the truth hidden and refused to confess.
Su Xi had always wanted to know what kind of hardship had led Situ to leave without saying goodbye.
