Two days later, Su Wanti took an afternoon off to visit the Su family and meet the old man.
Mr. Su looks serious, but he is actually a soft-hearted person.
Mr. Su came from a hard life. The hardships he endured in his early business career were beyond words, and he encountered countless dangers.
When he learned that Su Wanti was an orphan since childhood, and did not give up studying under difficult circumstances and was admitted to the Art College, and that her tuition and living expenses were all earned by orphan scholarships and her own part-time jobs, he began to look at this little girl with admiration.
Moreover, Mr. Su discovered that she looked like his granddaughter. If the two stood together, they really looked like real sisters. It was magical.
"Alas, I wish my granddaughter was as sensible as you. She has never experienced hardship and doesn't appreciate her current life."
Grandpa Su looked at the tough little girl in front of him, and then thought about his own granddaughter who was rebellious until she was in her twenties, unruly and always went against the family, and sighed.
Su Wanti smiled, her eyes curved as she said:
"Grandpa Su, I'm being forced to endure hardship. If I could live a good life, I wouldn't choose to endure hardship. I would choose the life I want, just like Sister Baiyu."
"When I first came to Beijing, I could only play minor roles, earning over 100 yuan a day. To save money, I lived in a bed near the film and television city for only 200 yuan a month."
"Later, I was able to play small supporting roles, and my income increased. I could earn three to five hundred yuan a day, so I immediately found a roommate and moved into an apartment."
"Later, I was able to play a supporting role with lines and scenes, and I was able to get a name for myself. I also signed with an entertainment company, so I immediately gave up my shared apartment and rented a one-bedroom apartment."
"Grandpa Su, you see, I don't want to suffer either. I also want to live a good life."
Her words were so frank and truthful that Mr. Su was amused.
Su Wanti blinked slightly and said:
"Besides, Sister Baiyu is not incapable of hardship. I heard from Aunt Tao that she lives in a luxury apartment in Country M. She has a housekeeper, a nanny, a driver, and a chef, and lives a very comfortable life."
"But in pursuit of the life she wanted, she was willing to give up her superior material conditions and left without regrets. For her, leaving home, having no one to support her, and venturing out on her own was a real struggle."
"Grandpa Su, you see I can endure hardship. In fact, I am just like Sister Baiyu. I can endure hardship for my dreams and for the life I want. But I can't endure other kinds of hardship."
Grandpa looked at Su Wanti's bright little face, his brows relaxed, as if he had let go of a lot of things, including things about his granddaughter.
After chatting with Su Wanti, the gloomy mood that had been hanging over Mr. Su for the past few days was swept away.
He had returned to his usual kind and talkative self.
After chatting with Grandpa Su, the nanny came over and said it was time to eat.
Everyone came to the restaurant.
The rectangular marble dining table was filled with delicious dishes.
Su's mother asked Su Wanti about her food preferences in advance and prepared dishes that she liked.
Su Qingxiu also took an afternoon off from school and came back to see Su Wanti.
Su's father and mother said that Su Wanti would be his second sister from now on. This was her first time coming to the Su family, and as a younger brother, he had to go home to greet her.
Su Qingxiu was shocked when he saw Su Wanti for the first time, and he kept stealing glances at her.
By the time it was time to eat, Su Qingxiu couldn't help himself any longer and said:
"Mom and Dad, go get a paternity test with Sister Wanti! She looks so much like her sister, except she has more hair, whiter skin, bigger eyes, and a higher nose..."
He was about to continue speaking when Su's father stopped him with a look.
"Alright, stop talking. You've made your sister look better than her. Wanti is an actress, so naturally she's prettier than your sister!"
Mother Su said gently:
"Qingxiu, from now on you have to call Sister Wanti "Second Sister," and don't talk about paternity testing outside. We don't need to do a paternity test, remember?"
Qingxiu's eyes lit up, and he understood the special meaning of Su's mother's words.
"No need for a paternity test? Is she really your child? Or is she my father's illegitimate child..."
Before he could finish the last two words, he was interrupted by a slap on the back by Su's father.
"What nonsense! Your father is not that kind of person. Listen to your mother and I will tell you later."
The elders of the Su family are not arrogant and do not restrict the younger generations, so the atmosphere at home is very good.
During the meal, Grandpa Su told Su Wanti the story of his early entrepreneurial journey. Su's father and mother kept serving her food and asking about her well-being.
Su Qingxiu is a very lively and cheerful boy. After knowing Su Wanti's profession, he asked Su Wanti many questions about acting.
The meal was a great pleasure for both the host and the guests, and the atmosphere was harmonious.
After eating and drinking, Su's mother asked Su Wanti if she was willing to live in the Su family.
Su Wanti thought about it and refused.
Firstly, they had only met a few times and were not very familiar with each other. It would be awkward and uncomfortable for them to live under the same roof.
Secondly, the Su family’s old house is far away from the film set, and it takes an hour to drive there, which is not conducive to her rest, so she decided to forget it.
Su's mother didn't say anything. She took out a key and handed it to Su Wanti, saying that the Su family had a house near the set where she was filming, and the house was empty, so Su Wanti could live there.
The Su family driver will take her there later.
Su Wanti doesn't have to worry about anything else, her mother will find a nanny to take care of her daily life.
"Auntie Tao, the house I rented is pretty good, and I just paid the rent, so you don't have to change my residence."
Su Wanti is not used to accepting other people's kindness.
