After the filming of "Ice Tears" was completed, "Sweet and Sour" was about to start filming. The crew's filming location was in Jiangcheng, so as soon as the filming was completed, Su Man flew back to Jiangcheng from Baicheng.
After arriving home, Su Man sent Xiao Liu away, cleaned up the apartment simply, and prepared cat food and water for Mimi.
After doing all this, Suman called home.
It has been a long time since I went home to see Chen Yu. Although she reports to Su Man every day that she is safe, Su Man is still a little worried.
After listening to the waiting tone for a long time, the call was finally picked up.
"Hello."
"Hello, daughter, why are you calling at this time?"
Su Man felt relieved when she heard Chen Yu's voice sounded normal. "Nothing's wrong. I just went back to Jiangcheng. I wanted to go back and see you and dad."
"ah?"
Chen Yu seemed startled. "Today?"
Su Man keenly noticed the evasiveness in Chen Yu's tone. She pretended not to notice and said coquettishly, "I missed you~"
Sure enough, no matter how old the parents are, they can't stand their children acting like spoiled brats, so Chen Yu still agreed to Su Man.
"Okay, okay, then mom will go out to buy some groceries and make you sweet and sour pork ribs tonight."
"Mom, you're the best."
The moment she hung up the phone, the smile on Su Man's face disappeared completely.
She knew that something must have happened at home during the time she was away from Jiangcheng.
-
At 5 o'clock in the evening, Suman rang the doorbell of her home.
"Here I come."
Although Su Man was mentally prepared, she was still shocked when she saw Chen Yu's face.
The left side of his face was swollen, his eyes could not even be opened, and the bruises on his forehead were shocking.
"What on earth is going on?" Su Man's face turned completely cold.
Chen Yu knew that he couldn't hide it, so he sighed and said, "Come in first."
...
Wang Shoucai was not at home, so they didn't have to hide in the kitchen to talk. The two of them just sat opposite each other on the sofa, looking at each other in silence.
Seeing Su Man staring at her, Chen Yu avoided her gaze and asked, "Xiao Man, are you hungry? Do you want your mother to cook now?"
“…”
Su Man didn't say anything, just looked at her silently, exuding pressure invisibly.
Finally, Chen Yu gave in. She sighed, "This is it. Last time you said you wanted to give all your salary to your father. I didn't think that was appropriate, so I advised your father that you spend a lot of money outside, and we are both old and can't spend much, so..."
Although Chen Yu did not continue speaking, based on Wang Shoucai's temper, it was not difficult to guess how angry he would be after hearing this, and violence was inevitable.
Chen Yu loved her daughter deeply. Even after being beaten, she still advised Su Man, "Man Man, you can't give all your money to your father. Be obedient."
Her eyes were full of pleading, but Su Man refused cruelly, "Mom, you said you owed Dad, I'm your daughter, I want to help you pay it back."
Seeing that she couldn't convince Su Man, Chen Yu burst into tears, "No! I've read all the news online. You fainted in cold water while filming. And so many people scolded you. You're so tired. How can a mother watch all the money you worked so hard to earn go down the drain?"
After hearing this, Su Man understood.
No wonder Chen Yu went to persuade Wang Shoucai. It turned out that it was because he saw the news online.
Chen Yu is old and doesn't know how to use the Internet, so he might have heard it from somewhere.
Although she couldn't bear to see her so anxious, for her future happiness, Su Man still refused to give in. "Unless you are willing to leave Dad, otherwise, I will help you pay off the debt."
"You kid!"
In a state of desperation, Chen Yu blurted out, "If I divorce him, he'll expose you and say you're heartless. Then everyone will scold you!"
Su Man looked at Chen Yu steadily, "So, this is why you haven't divorced Dad?"
Chen Yu realized what she had said, her shoulders slumped, and she was completely deflated. "Not entirely. Your father agreed to get sterilized because I wanted to raise you. I've always remembered that. And all these years, it's really because of him that my mother and I have been able to have food to eat."
She paused and continued, "It's because he keeps asking you for money that I'm considering a divorce. But your father said that if I divorce him, he'll expose you in the media, saying you're ungrateful, and your reputation will be ruined."
-
For a mother, she would rather suffer the pain of being burned by fire than let her daughter suffer any harm.
Mother's love can sometimes really make people lose their minds.
Su Man sat down close to Chen Yu and said softly, "No, Mom, you're overthinking it."
"Of course not." Chen Yu's voice rose unconsciously. "I saw a news report earlier about a singer who was criticized by her mother for being unfilial and saying bad things about her, slandering her for taking that drug. She was severely criticized by everyone and even had to pay some kind of penalty for breach of contract."
Su Man didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "But it was later clarified. Everything needs evidence. If there is no evidence, there will be no storm."
After trying to persuade her for a long time, Chen Yu was very stubborn when it came to her affairs and refused to let her take any risks.
Su Man thought about it and said, "If I can promise that I will not be affected by this incident, can you cooperate with me, Mom?"
"How do we cooperate?"
Su Man leaned over and whispered something in Chen Yu's ear.
Chen Yu was surprised. "Wouldn't this ruin the rest of your father's life? No, no, even though he made a mistake, this would be too cruel to him."
