☆, Chapter 110: The Best Family
As they were talking, the elevator arrived at the floor. With a ding, the door opened and Wen Mianyu stepped out.
The mother and son of the Su family were stunned by her retort. They only reacted when the elevator door was about to close. They hurriedly squeezed out and were almost pinched by the door.
Wen Mianyu had already walked to the door of the apartment and entered the password to open the door.
Su Qiang pulled his mother and trotted over, finally squeezing in before she closed the door.
After entering the door, the mother and son breathed a sigh of relief, both panting.
Su Qiang took a breath before calming down. He said, "Su Moli...don't think I'll believe you. How could you possibly be afraid? If I go to the media and tell them you didn't support your parents, it'll be a huge scandal. You won't be able to survive in the entertainment industry!"
"Yeah." Su's mother chimed in. She didn't know much about the entertainment industry, and the little she knew came from Su Qiang. "You're the leading actress now, and you're still filming a movie. If you have a scandal, the movie won't be released."
"Maybe." Wen Mianyu did not deny this. She walked over and sat down on the sofa, resting her hands on the armrests, looking at the mother and son standing at the door. "What you said might happen, but I don't care."
"Want to expose me and make me quit the entertainment industry? Sure, but after you expose me, regardless of whether it can have an impact on me or not, I will not give you a penny anymore, not even the original 1,000 yuan."
Wen Mianyu was sitting there, obviously shorter than the other two, but her aura was so strong that she seemed to be condescending even when she was sitting and talking.
Su's mother had never seen such a domineering daughter and was shocked for a moment.
Su Qiang refused to believe it. "The entertainment industry is so lucrative. A popular drama can earn tens of millions. I don't believe you're willing to fight us to the death for such a small matter!"
"If you don't believe me, go ahead and try it. Don't worry, I won't stop you." Wen Mianyu said, "See if I'm really that kind of person."
"..." Su Qiang. Wen Mianyu's attitude was too firm, making him unsure whether it was true or not.
"Let me put it this way." Wen Mianyu leaned back, acting like a boss. "If you don't mess with me, live a good life, and change your bad habits, I'll be happy. When I become famous and make money, maybe I can give you some so you can start a small business."
"But if you expose it, no matter what the final result is, you will not get any advantage."
"I can't act because of the scandal, but I can still do other things, but you won't make a penny in the future. If I hadn't been affected by the scandal, you would be even worse off. When I have everything and become successful, all I need to do is say a word and many people will want to help me."
"When the time comes, you say you will disappear without a trace?" Wen Mianyu lowered his voice and showed a sinister smile.
"..." Both the mother and son of the Su family felt a chill on their backs.
"So, don't mess with me." Wen Mianyu got up from the sofa, walked slowly into the bedroom, and began to pack her things.
The mother and son of the Su family stood at the door, looking at each other, both confused for a moment.
When they set out to City A this time, they were quite ambitious.
Su Qiang saw the official announcement of the female lead on the Internet and knew that his sister was going to be famous. He thought he could make a fortune after coming here, but who expected to encounter such a hard obstacle?
Wen Mianyu's attitude was so resolute that they didn't dare to act rashly, but how could they be willing to just give up and go back to the town?
…
In the room, Wen Mianyu counted the old things he had left behind and found that nothing was missing. He found someone who bought old things online and called him to come and pick up the goods.
The second-hand store owner came to the door soon, bought all the old items, whether low-priced or high-priced, and gave the money to Wen Mianyu.
During this process, the mother and son of the Su family were still in the living room and had not left.
They were unwilling to leave, but they didn't dare to expose themselves, so they were stuck there.
Wen Mianyu counted the money and gave it all to Su's mother, including the whole and small amounts. "Here, it's not easy to come here. Buy some food and go back to town."
Mother Su took the money and estimated it was only a little over a thousand yuan. Her face turned unhappy and she said, "That's just how much!"
"Do you think you are sending away a beggar?" Su Qiang also got angry.
Wen Mianyu sneered at the two of them and said, "If you don't want it, give it back to me."
Su's mother held the money tightly.
The more Su Qiang thought about it, the more unwilling he became. "We won't just leave like this."
"It's up to you." Wen Mianyu didn't care. She picked up the bag on the coffee table and was about to leave.
Su Qiang followed closely, "If you give us 300,000 yuan, we will go back. Otherwise, we will go wherever you go. I want to see how you do things."
"Are you sure?" Wen Mianyu raised an eyebrow. "There's a wealthy man who likes me a lot lately. I want to sleep with him. Do you want to come? Sure, as long as you're not afraid of getting beaten. After all, he has a bad temper."
“…”Su Qiang.
Mother Su was a little surprised, "You...you actually..."
"Isn't this what you've always hoped for? You can't wait to pack me up and send me to the bed of a rich man." Wen Mianyu made fun of herself without any scruples, "Don't you think about it, with my ability, I can jump from a supporting role to the female lead? Of course, there must be someone willing to spend money to support me."
Su's mother and Su Qiang looked at each other. Neither of them expected things to develop like this.
"I still say the same thing. Once you step out of this door, you can expose whatever you want. Of course, you will have to bear the consequences as long as you think this is what you want." Wen Mianyu emphasized it one last time and stopped talking.
I don't know if the mother and son were frightened or had other plans, but they didn't bother each other anymore.
After leaving the community, Wen Mianyu went to the roadside to stop a car, and the mother and son no longer followed her.
After getting in the car, Wen Mianyu still found it a little funny.
I have actually learned how to scare people.
Yes, what she said just now was probably meant to scare the mother and son.
To put it another way, if she really wanted those two people to disappear without a trace, she could do it now.
But she didn't want to be so ruthless. After all, those two people were Su Moli's relatives.
Although she would rather not have such relatives, in Su Moli's memory, she really cared about her family.
Otherwise, he wouldn't let his family suck his blood.
Since Wen Mianyu has occupied Su Moli's body and the original owner is dead, she can't do anything for her. She can only try her best to take care of the people Su Moli cares about without going too far.
As for whether the two men would learn their lesson because of her intimidation, this was not something Wen Mianyu would consider.
She has been in the entertainment industry for so many years and understands one thing best: some things cannot be avoided just because you are afraid of them.
The more she cared, the more she retreated, and the more she compromised, the more the mother and son would intensify their demands, from 300,000 to 3 million or 30 million.
There is no end to human nature and desires.
…
Long after the taxi drove away, Su's mother and Su Qiang were still standing at the entrance of the community and did not leave.
The two discussed for a while but could not come to a conclusion as to whether or not to go back.
Su Qiang meant that he still wanted to ask Wen Mianyu for an explanation, but Su's mother was a little worried. She didn't want Su Qiang to put himself in danger, and she was also afraid of offending the financial sponsor Wen Mianyu mentioned, so she thought about just forgetting it.
Rather than risking her life to exchange for money, she would rather live a good life.
"Why let it go? If we let it go this time, we will only get 1,000 yuan a month in the future. What can we do with this little money?" Su Qiang jumped up and down.
"Aqiang, you're my only son, you can't take any risks!" Su's mother held his hand and persuaded him, "One thousand is one thousand, it's better than nothing. I still have my pension, you can save some money..."
"Don't be stingy! Why should I be stingy?" Su Qiang shook her hand off and shouted, "How can my friends still respect me if I can't afford anything? Do you want me to have trouble getting a good meal out there?"
"Aqiang..." Mother Su was helpless and hated Wen Mianyu even more. If it weren't for her...
Just as I was thinking about Wen Mianyu's many faults, a voice suddenly came from behind me, "Aqiang, Aunt Su."
The mother and son turned their heads at the same time and saw Liang Xiao standing on the side of the road with a bag of vegetables in his hand.
"Xiaoxiao." When Su Qiang saw Liang Xiao, his angry face immediately turned into a smile. He walked forward with a smile and asked, "Why are you here?"
"I just got back from work and bought some food." Liang Xiao explained, and was also surprised by Su Qiang's arrival. "A Qiang, why are you and Aunt Su here?"
"We're here to find Su Moli." Su Qiang replied, reaching out to take the bag from her hand. "Here, carry it for me. It's so heavy, don't tire yourself out."
"Thank you, Aqiang, you are still so considerate." Liang Xiao chuckled with her hands covering her mouth, and was generous with her praise. She knew how to control men very well.
Su Qiang was so coaxed that he almost lost his mind. He looked at Liang Xiao with a smile and said, "No, this is what I should do. Xiaoxiao, you are still so beautiful. You haven't changed in these years."
"Come to think of it, we haven't seen each other for a few years." Liang said with a smile, "Aunt Su, Aqiang, it's rare for you to come over, why don't you come over to my place and have a seat?"
"Okay." Su Qiang wanted it more than anything else and agreed without waiting for his mother to speak.
The three of them talked and laughed as they entered the residential complex and returned upstairs.
As soon as he entered the door, Liang Xiao found something wrong.
There were a lot of slippers on the ground, and there were messy footprints on the floor, which showed that someone had been there.
Liang Xiao didn't bother to change his slippers and rushed into his room. Finding that his valuables were still there, he turned around and went to Wen Mianyu's room.
When Wen Mianyu moved out, the rent was due in a month and a half, but she did not check out, so this room has never been rented out and has been used for storage.
Liang Xiao estimated that those old appliances, old furniture, and some second-hand daily necessities could be sold for about a thousand yuan.
She had a good plan. If Wen Mianyu didn't come back to pick it up, she could sell all the things when the lease expired and keep the money for herself.
With only ten days left before the lease expired, Liang Xiao was already confident, but who would have thought that all his things were gone.
"Has Su Moli come back?" Liang Xiao rushed to the living room and asked the mother and son of the Su family.
She looked furious and a bit frustrated, completely different from her usual gentle and pure appearance.
Su Qiang was stunned for a moment before he remembered to answer, "She just left, about ten minutes before you came back."
"Did she sell all her things?" Liang Xiao asked.
"Yeah." Su Qiang said, "She sold a lot of things. I was wondering why she sold everything. Could they all be your things, Xiaoxiao?"
Su Qiang asked this with anticipation in his heart. He hoped that Wen Mianyu would sell Liang Xiao's things so that he could threaten Wen Mianyu.
But Liang Xiao's expression froze, but he didn't nod. He said in a bad tone, "It's her stuff. I just think she came back to sell it without notifying me. It's too disrespectful to me as a roommate."
"Is that so?" Su Qiang was a little disappointed, but he still agreed with Liang Xiao and said, "That little bastard Su Moli is getting more and more arrogant. She's disrespectful to me and my mother, and she even hit me!"
"She hit you?" Liang Xiao was surprised.
Being from the same town, she knew the Su family's situation very well. Su Qiang had been uneducated since childhood, but he was quite good at fighting. Su Moli had always been the one who got beaten.
Su Qiang also realized that it was not honorable for him to be beaten. He wiped his nose to cover up the truth and said, "I was not prepared. She attacked me by surprise and hit me. If I had been prepared, it would have been easy to beat her!"
"Of course." Liang Xiao agreed with him, went to the refrigerator and took out a few cans of drinks, put them on the coffee table, and said, "Aqiang, Aunt Su, come and sit down."
Mother Su loved to take advantage of small things. Seeing that there were drinks, she hurried over to sit down and said, "Thank you, Xiaoxiao, for treating us so well. You are really nice. You haven't changed even after leaving town and coming to the big city. I wish I had a daughter like you."
Liang Xiao thought to herself that she'd be your daughter, but she smiled. "Aunt Su, you're too kind. Speaking of which, what are you and Aqiang doing here this time? Didn't you call Jasmine before you came? She moved away a long time ago, so why are you still waiting for her in the neighborhood?"
"Don't mention it!" When talking about this, Su's mother became furious and exaggerated what had happened before.
Of course, it is inevitable that the details glorify himself and Su Qiang and vilify Wen Mianyu.
After hearing this, Liang Xiao's eyes flashed and he asked, "Did she really say that?"
"Yes." Su Qiang said, "They also let us expose ourselves as much as we want, it's up to us."
"Jasmine is so ignorant." Liang Xiao condemned them on the surface, just like the other two, but he had a plan in mind.
She has always been angry that Wen Mianyu has developed better than her. She is still struggling to play a supporting role in the film and television city, so how come Wen Mianyu, her roommate, can become the female lead?
He was also appreciated by the director and valued by the movie emperor.
Liang Xiao had no way to deal with it before, and he had no leverage over Wen Mianyu. Now, the mother and son came to his door. Isn’t this a godsend?
Wen Mianyu claims she's not afraid of scandals, but what public figure wouldn't be afraid? The more famous she becomes, the more money she makes, and the better her reputation, the more afraid she becomes of scandal.
It’s just that he hasn’t enjoyed the benefits of his sudden popularity yet.
Liang Xiao felt that this was an opportunity and that they should take a long-term view. So he said to Su Qiang and Su's mother, "Jasmine has indeed gone too far this time. Now that I know about this, I must help you."
"Do you have a solution?" Su Qiang's eyes lit up.
"Yes, I have a plan," Liang Xiao said confidently, "but we can't rush this. Although Jasmine is now the female lead, the film hasn't been released yet, and she hasn't gained much fame. Besides having more scenes, her situation on the set isn't much different from before, so now isn't the right time to reveal this information."
"Are you saying we're here too early?" Su's mother understood what was going on and pressed the issue eagerly, "Should we wait until she's really famous before we expose her secrets? I heard that exposing secrets can be valuable, right?"
