Locked out?
She shook her head, a hint of schadenfreude in her voice, "You're the most stubborn person in the world, can't you say a few nice things? You deserve to be locked up outside."
After Su Xiulan finished speaking, she went back to her room to sleep.
Su Xiangnan sat in the wind, growing angrier the more he thought about it.
He wondered to himself, why can't I speak?
Where did you get the nerve to be stubborn?
The thought that Gu Xue would have a fiancé when she went back made her feel a mix of emotions, and she felt very uncomfortable.
Why should the person he protected for two lifetimes be taken away by someone else?
This is someone he cherishes dearly.
His gaze fell on his legs, his eyes darkened, and a sharp pain pierced his heart.
He gritted his teeth and pushed the wheelchair to Meng Shuyun's room.
In the middle of the night, Meng Shuyun was woken up by the noise. She opened her eyes groggily and was startled to see Su Xiangnan at the head of her bed.
"What are you doing here in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?" she asked sleepily.
"I have something to say to you." Su Xiangnan's tone carried a hint of gritted teeth.
Meng Shuyun instantly regained her senses and followed Su Xiangnan into the courtyard.
It was almost dawn, and she wondered what was wrong with Su Xiangnan this time.
“I’ll give you my compensation money; you return Gu Xue’s money to her. But I have one condition.” Su Xiangnan’s voice was very firm.
"I won't agree." Meng Shuyun refused without even thinking.
Su Xiangnan was stunned, and said incredulously, "Do you know how much compensation I have? How can you bear to refuse it? Aren't you very fond of money? You wouldn't even take it if it were offered to you?"
Meng Shuyun shrank her neck; the early morning of late autumn was bitterly cold.
"Xue'er's family is in Beijing. With your pension plus the 50,000 yuan you've saved over the years, do you think that's a lot?"
Not to mention the part you spent.
The fact that they could come up with 20,000 yuan to hire someone to commit murder shows that her family is very wealthy.
"You want to marry someone's daughter, do you think this amount of money is enough?"
Su Xiangnan, seething with anger, retorted defiantly, "As long as my leg can be healed, give me two years, and I'm sure I can earn 100,000 yuan..."
Meng Shuyun wasn't trying to discourage him; she was just presenting the facts to him: "Your leg will take at least six months to recover, plus the time it takes you to earn money. Why do you think Gu Xue would be willing to wait for you for three years?"
Although Meng Shuyun's voice was not loud, every word felt like a heavy weight pressing down on Su Xiangnan's back, making it hard for him to breathe.
"I...I..." Su Xiangnan's voice was extremely hoarse, and it was incredibly difficult for him to utter a single word.
Yes, why should Gu Xue stay where she is and wait for her?
And even if his leg is healed, he might not be able to live like a normal person...
He gritted his teeth in resentment, but the little courage he had just mustered had already been extinguished before it even began to sprout.
"I'm not reconciled..." Su Xiangnan roared, his eyes bloodshot.
"What are you so unwilling to accept?" Meng Shuyun said coldly. "God has given you a second chance, but instead of thinking about changing the status quo and seizing the moment, you're here complaining and blaming others."
She looked deeply at Su Xiangnan, then looked up at the sky, "I also hated and regretted things in my past life."
Heaven has shown me great mercy and given me a second chance. I will do everything in my power to make amends to my sisters.
Although I'm not very bright, I've never stopped moving forward, all for the sake of a better life in the future.
If you stand still, no one will be willing to wait for you in the same place forever.
