As Su Er stepped out of the hospital, the sky, which had been bright and sunny just a moment ago, suddenly darkened.
Accompanied by a few booming claps of thunder, the dense, green leaves rustled in the wind, but the heat did not dissipate in the slightest, and pedestrians on the road quickened their pace.
It's going to rain.
Sometimes, intuition is truly a magical sensory experience.
As the unfamiliar black car approached her, Su Er had a premonition.
The day she had to say goodbye to Jiang Siyan was fast approaching.
The car window rolled down, revealing a solemn and dignified face. The person had a completely different temperament from Jiang Siyan, but a faint resemblance could be seen in their eyes and brows. "I've heard so much about you, Miss Su. Do you have time to chat?"
Seeing that she was taking her time getting into the car, Lin Shuqin leaned over and asked, "Xiao Er, what's wrong?"
Su Er wasn't surprised. She lowered her hand from the car door handle and said, "Sister Qin, please wait a moment. I need to say a few words to Mr. Jiang."
Someone got out of the car and opened one of the doors for her. Su Er bent down and sat down properly, without straightening her back or lowering her eyes. She simply faced Jiang Siyan's father with composure.
The car door closed, keeping the impending storm at bay.
Jiang Zhuoli looked at her, "Miss Su, do you have anything else to do later?"
Su Er looked up and met those sharp eyes. "Yes, I still have to go to film a movie, so Mr. Jiang, please just say what you want to say."
Jiang Zhuoli glanced at her with slight surprise. "It seems Miss Su knows who I am. Since Miss Su is a smart person, I won't beat around the bush."
"You and Si Yan have been together for several years now. I know that Si Yan really likes you, since you've been together for so long."
Su Er wondered what he would say next.
Give her some money and let her leave his son?
Or should we give her as many resources as possible to make her leave her son?
In short, no matter how cliché the plot is, it's all for the predetermined ending: leaving his son.
"I also hope you can understand that I have done some research on your family. Actually, it's not that we can't accept you being with Si Yan."
That was an unexpected answer.
“But… as you know, Si Yan’s job is not suitable for his wife to always be in the headlines of the entertainment section.” Jiang Zhuoli observed her expression, paused, and then continued, “So, after the marriage, I hope you can choose not to work as an actress. Of course, this does not mean that you have to give up your career completely. As long as you are not in the spotlight, you are free to choose whether you want to invest, film, or continue your studies. We will not interfere.”
Su Er still remembered how dissatisfied Jiang Zhuoli was with her when Jiang Siyan called her before. What made him change his mind?
Is it because she has a decent family background? Or is it a compromise because of Jiang Siyan's stance of not wanting to marry her?
Su Er didn't care about any of that. She smiled and politely said, "Mr. Jiang, I think you've misunderstood."
Jiang Zhuoli frowned almost imperceptibly, waiting for her to continue.
Su Er said, "Before you met me, you should already know how I met and fell in love with him. To be honest, a large part of the reason I chose to be with him was that I wanted to make my life easier. Let's not dwell on the various feelings that developed afterward, but if I were to give up my career for him today, wouldn't that be going against my original intention and contradicting myself?"
"And also... Mr. Jiang, you shouldn't have said these things to me today. Jiang Siyan... never thought about marrying me."
"You can rest assured that he and I should break up soon."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhuoli's solemn face softened slightly.
The old lady's words last time did indeed persuade him. What parent doesn't want to see their child get married? Besides, he did feel guilty towards his son.
After much deliberation, if he could fulfill his wish regarding his marriage, it would also help to ease the tension between father and son. In that case, those other interests could indeed be temporarily put aside.
Especially after investigating Su Er's family background, it was found that she came from a scholarly family and her social standing was not bad, but there were more controversies surrounding her career.
That's why Jiang Zhuoli came here today specifically to discuss this matter with her. He thought everything was under control and would have a happy ending for everyone.
But I never expected to get such a reply from Su Er.
Even Jiang Zhuoli was unsure whether to feel happy or regretful.
The rain had already started to fall, and Su Er had no intention of lingering any longer. "Mr. Jiang, I have other matters to attend to, so I won't stay any longer."
After saying that, she pushed open the car door and quickly ran back to her own car.
Whether it was because of the unpredictable weather that day or because she got caught in the rain, Su Er fell ill.
I had a persistent cough that lasted for a month and hadn't gotten better.
After finishing her current scenes, she had to slow down and give herself a short break.
Those were the last warm and sweet days before she and Jiang Siyan separated.
That tender time gradually faded away Jiang Siyan's previous unease and restlessness, making the word "lasting" seem so tangible.
The day Su Erzhen broke up with Jiang Siyan was shortly after his birthday.
Lin Shuqin picked out a new script for her, still a collaboration with Director Guo, with a long filming period.
Jiang Siyan also told her that he would have to go abroad for a period of time due to work requirements.
