Su Ruowan's brain was working quickly to analyze the situation, but Xu Tangtang mistakenly thought that Su Ruowan didn't say anything because she was scared.
Xu Tangtang, who thought she had won, snorted lightly, "How's it going? Are you scared now?"
"Fear?"
"Yes, if you are afraid, just give money. You don't need me to teach you the principle of spending money to ward off disasters, right?" Xu Tangtang stretched out his hand, confident that Su Ruowan would definitely give him money.
Su Ruowan looked at her, paused for a few seconds, and laughed, "Xu Tangtang, are you trying to tell me that Bai Qing has a crush on me?"
Xu Tangtang withdrew her hand, a little surprised. Su Ruowan told her this matter just like that. Wouldn’t she feel embarrassed?
You know, they are siblings.
"Thanks to you guys, I just realized that even though I'm an ordinary-looking woman, there are so many outstanding men who secretly like me. Well, it seems I need to be more confident, don't you think?"
"We? Who else?" Xu Tangtang was confused.
Her calmness instantly defeated Su Ruowan's even calmer reaction.
In particular, Su Ruowan's calmness did not seem to be pretended at all, as if she really did not care at all.
Moreover, she also defined Su Baiqing as excellent?
What's so great about Su Baiqing, a man who spends all his time in bars and lives off his parents?
"Are you surprised? I just don't know where you guys get so much time and effort to meddle in other people's affairs all day long."
"My little business?" Xu Tangtang couldn't help but raise her voice. How could this be considered a little business?
She couldn't keep up with Su Ruowan's train of thought.
"That's right. You actually define Bai Qing's secret crush on me as a scandal for the Su family? How can it be considered a scandal? Bai Qing and I are siblings without any blood relationship. You should have known about this a long time ago, right?"
"Even if you don't know, I'm telling you now that we like each other, and it's not against the law, let alone morality. So, tell me, how can it be considered a scandal?"
"I'm the Su family's adopted daughter. My father picked me up from outside. All the grandparents, uncles, and aunts in Maoer Hutong know about it. Do we still need you to promote us?"
"As for Huo Shengnian, he doesn't know. I can tell him, no need to bother you. Of course, if you want to do it for him, that's not impossible. He's right here. Do you want me to call him in for you?"
"Su Ruowan, you..."
Xu Tangtang didn't expect that Su Ruowan was so calm in the face of this matter. She seemed not to be afraid of public opinion at all.
But she is obviously traditional and conservative, like a woman who traveled through time from the old society. The descriptions of such women in books say that they all care a lot about reputation and face.
That's why she dared to ask Su Ruowan for one million. She even treated Su Ruowan as a long-term meal ticket, thinking that once she had used up the one million, she would use the same excuse to extort another million, and then a third million...
In this way, it doesn’t matter whether Su Baiqing takes care of her for the rest of her life.
It's enough for her to have enough money to squander.
"Xu Tangtang, you've only just met me. I know you've looked down on me for so long. If you were just a little more attentive, you would know that I never back down when faced with a problem. I always try to find a solution."
"If Huo Shengnian wants to divorce me because Bai Qing has a crush on me, then let's divorce. It doesn't matter to me. After all, I have a lot of things in my life, and love isn't the only thing."
"Huo Shengnian and I are the same kind of people, so we appreciate each other. Do you want to make a bet with me? I'll call someone in and you tell him about this. If he gets angry with me because of this, I'll borrow one million from him and give it to you."
"If you're not angry, and you even want to spend the rest of your life with me, all you have to do is give me half a million. Are you willing to take the gamble?"
Xu Tangtang looked at her. How long had it been since they got their marriage certificate?
Is there such trust between them?
Also, Su Ruowan was right, she didn't understand her.
Huo Shengnian could see with his own eyes, but he pretended to be blind to deceive her. If this happened to any other girl, such a big thing would never have passed so quickly.
However, Su Ruowan chose to forgive so easily.
This made her mistakenly believe that Su Ruowan cared about Huo Shengnian. Even if she was not afraid that she would make this ugly thing public and let the neighbors in Maoer Hutong stab their family in the back, she was definitely afraid that Huo Shengnian would know about it.
Besides, Huo Shengnian already knew about this.
I had warned her about this, but she didn't understand at that time.
It was not until Su Baiqing gave up on her, gave up so completely, said he didn't like her, and suddenly didn't like her anymore, that she came to her senses.
She was actually treated as Su Ruowan's substitute by Su Baiqing, and she was really dissatisfied with this matter.
But what can I do if I’m not convinced?
Su Ruowan's confidence and calmness not only came from her trust in Huo Shengnian, but also from a sudden flash of inspiration that just now occurred to her mind, as she recalled the day when Huo Shengnian asked her how many rivals Mr. Huo had in love.
At that time, he mentioned his senior, Wen Qi, and another one whom she didn't know about, but he knew about, and finally brought it all up to Xi Yang.
That's really bullshit.
Then he said that the one she didn’t know, but the one he knew, could it be Bai Qing?
If it was really Bai Qing, then when did he know?
Huo Shengnian will give her an answer to this matter.
Su Ruowan stood up and said, "Xu Tangtang, my father said that out of kindness and righteousness, our family should give the 50,000 yuan. He is the head of the family, so he signed a settlement agreement with Lawyer Mo, promising not to cause trouble in the future. The 50,000 yuan is valid at any time."
"As for the rest, forget about it. Also, I guess my husband already knows about what you think is a shameful thing. I want to go find him and get the answer now."
"Goodbye. For everything else, please contact Lawyer Mo."
“…”
Xu Tangtang just watched Su Ruowan leave. At this moment, her cell phone rang. It was Xu's mother calling to ask how things were going.
Xu Tangtang was in a bad mood, "Nothing, I failed."
"...Failed? In that case, your dad said, take the 50,000 first, and go home to take care of your health. It's time for a blind date."
After Xu's mother finished speaking, she hung up the phone.
“…”
Xu Tangtang was completely stunned.
How did she end up living like this?
She couldn't catch Huo Shengnian, and couldn't even touch him. If she stayed with Su Baiqing, she would have a share of the nearly one million that the Su family had recently received.
But now, the 50,000 yuan was taken away by her parents, and she still had to continue going on blind dates to earn the betrothal money for her brother.
At this moment, Xu Tangtang felt a little regretful and realized that during her time in the Su family, she was actually not grateful for what she had.
