The news that Xiao Mo, the heir of the Xiao family, had lost a leg shocked the entire city of A. Many wealthy families, like Ji Ye, used security to protect themselves and their loved ones. Those who had previously laughed at Ji Ye for being afraid of death were now admiring his foresight.
"I heard that the fiancée that Ji Ye's family arranged for was someone they found outside. They originally just wanted to teach Su Ge a lesson, but they didn't expect those desperate people to want to make an even bigger fortune."
Ji Ye picked up the water on the table and gulped it down. After this, he should no longer be affected by Xiao Mo and Su Ge's relationship!
"So how is the Xiao family treating Su Ge now?"
"I heard that the old lady of the Xiao family was strongly opposed to her entering the Xiao family, but Madam Xiao couldn't bear her son's pleas, so she still arranged for her to take care of Xiao Mo at the hospital."
Song Xia nodded: [When did Xiao Mo and Su Ge get married in my past life? It seems like it was after Su Ge got pregnant, and Xiao Ye was even preparing to become a father back then!]
Upon hearing this, Ji Ye nearly spat out the tea he was drinking.
[I remember it was shortly after the kidnapping incident. Xiao Ye's leg hadn't fully healed yet. Su Ge felt guilty and wanted to take care of Xiao Ye. Then, Xiao Mo misunderstood her again, and Su Ge became pregnant.]
As Song Xia recalled the events, she muttered to herself: "What a kind and pure-hearted girl! She said she would repay Xiao Ye with her body, but while taking care of him, she was pregnant with Xiao Mo's child!"
Even though he hadn't done anything wrong, Ji Ye felt like he was being cuckolded. What kind of ridiculous turn of events was this?
"Although the Ji family and the Xiao family have no business dealings, they have known each other since they were acquainted. When they get married, we will still send someone to give them a gift of money."
"That's what I think too. There are too many things to do at the Ji family, so I won't go in person."
On the other hand, the two main characters they were discussing were tormenting each other.
Xiao Mo was relieved to have saved Su Ge, but he was also extremely agitated by the doctor's words that his leg might never heal. Was he destined to be a cripple from now on?
The fact that his leg wouldn't heal was a huge blow to Xiao Mo. He was gloomy every day, and even when facing Su Ge, he couldn't help but become irritable.
Su Ge felt indebted to Xiao Mo, so no matter how Xiao Mo treated her, she silently endured it and no longer resisted his advances as she had before.
But this led Xiao Mo to misunderstand, mistakenly believing that she stayed by his side to repay a debt of gratitude, and not because she loved him at all.
Thus began a daily routine where Su Ge was forced to leave against her will, while she silently shed tears, yet refused to leave.
Gradually, the Xiao family became numb, and fewer and fewer people came to the hospital to visit Xiao Mo. Until one day, Su Ge gagged when she smelled the soup sent by the Xiao family, and the experienced Madam Xiao noticed something was wrong.
When Madam Xiao learned that Su Ge was pregnant, her feelings were complicated. She tacitly agreed to let Su Ge take care of her son, but she still felt that Su Ge was not good enough for her son. However, since she was pregnant, she couldn't have an abortion, after all, it was a life.
This news was a pleasant surprise for both Song Xia and Ji Ye, as it meant that the two were now completely bound together and would no longer pose a threat to Ji Ye.
Because the Xiao family was very unwilling, but Xiao Mo was determined to marry Su Ge, the marriage was eventually arranged. However, what was surprising was that Su Ge's mother did not appear at the engagement.
Although Su Ge's father came, he was a gambling addict, and upon learning that his daughter was about to marry a rich man, he revealed his greedy nature. The Xiao family looked down on such a person and ultimately did not allow him to attend.
"Su Ge's mother is quite determined," Song Xia remarked.
Ji Ye was also surprised. He still remembered how Su Ge's mother disciplined Su Ge at school: "After all, she was the only daughter, and she really managed to ignore her completely."
"You must be heartbroken! Especially since the object of your affection is still Xiao Mo." Song Xia understands this feeling very well. Don't say that maternal love is selfless and should be sacrificed for one's children, but the premise should be self-respect and self-love. In Su Ge's mother's eyes, Su Ge has already lost herself in the entanglement with Xiao Mo.
With Su Ge's abilities, she could have easily gotten into a good university, but in the end, she still chose to rely on men for a living and get involved in the vortex of wealthy families. No matter how rich or powerful she became, Su Ge's mother would not approve of her.
She used to tolerate Su Ge's father for the sake of her daughter, but after she figured it out, she probably wanted to live for herself, so she simply got a divorce and left A City, this place of trouble.
Without a good family background to back her up, and even her own mother was unwilling to attend the engagement banquet, Su Ge was like a doll to be manipulated. From the engagement to the end, she could only obey the Xiao family's orders, and no one asked about her preferences.
She and Xiao Mo were still awkward with each other, and neither of them felt the joy of getting married and having a child.
Three years passed in the blink of an eye. Song Xia's business empire expanded once again, and she became a representative of female businesswomen across the country. After graduating from Peking University with a master's degree, Bai Xinyi returned to her side as her assistant.
Recently, Song Xia discovered something: she actually saw Ji Ye secretly dating Bai Xinyi.
Here's what happened: Whenever she brought Bai Xinyi home for dinner, Ji Ye would always come back on time. During the meal, the two would pretend not to know each other. After Bai Xinyi said goodbye, Ji Ye would say he was taking Xiao Wu for a walk.
One day, Song Xia ate too much and decided to take a walk in a different direction. Then she saw the two of them being all lovey-dovey. She quickly turned around, pretending she had never been there before, and then couldn't help but smile.
Given how frequently they meet and how outstanding they are, it's quite normal for them to develop feelings for each other over time. They're also quite well-matched, and she's happy to see it happen.
To Song Xia's surprise, Su Ge appeared with her son when the two were preparing for the wedding. She looked at Bai Xinyi with a mocking expression: "Didn't you pride yourself on being independent and strong? You used to look down on me so much, but now you're just clinging to wealth and status, aren't you? Bai Xinyi, how are you any more noble than me?"
