"You think you'll be free of worries once you've dealt with my mother?" Su Ziqing pulled the old lady Su forcefully, almost dragging her to her mother's grave.
"What exactly is your mentality, daring to come to the ancestral graves every year to pay respects?!" Su Ziqing finished speaking and then laughed, "That's right, you never dare to look directly at my parents' portraits. You have something to hide, don't you?"
"Su Ziqing, are you crazy?" Old Madam Su's hair was disheveled as she looked at Su Ziqing.
"Am I crazy? You're the crazy ones!" Su Ziqing forced Old Madam Su to look at her mother's portrait. "Look at my mother, how old was she?! How could you do this to her?!"
The person in the portrait smiled gently; Su Ziqing's mother was truly the apple of her eye, and had a good personality.
But it was probably because things were too good that these people had an opportunity to take advantage of it.
Old Madam Su broke free and pushed Su Ziqing away, saying, "She died on her own, what does it have to do with me?"
"Is it alright?" Su Ziqing sneered. "Of course, you handled all the funeral arrangements, and your sons dealt with the accident and the negotiations with the traffic police."
"What evidence do you have?" Old Madam Su chuckled twice. "So many years have passed, what evidence do you have?"
See, she really has something to hide.
Su Ziqing looked at her. "So, there really is a problem, isn't there?"
Old Madam Su did not answer her question, but pointed at Su Ziqing's mother's grave and cursed, "She deserves it. She's a daughter, she should have just married out properly, but she insisted on taking a son-in-law. What is she trying to do? What kind of wishful thinking is she plotting?"
She treated other people's daughters like her own. Even if she was just pretending, she'd been doing it for decades. It wasn't easy.
But what about it?
I thought that once I got married, everything would be over, and I could just pretend to be married occasionally.
But!!
She refused to marry and instead took a husband as her son-in-law!
The old man doted on her, and even their granddaughter was spoiled in a way that made people jealous.
At that time, another high-society family incident also occurred, involving a property inheritance issue, in which the property was given to the daughter instead of the son.
If the Su family had continued on its current trajectory, would they have ended up doing all the work for someone else?
Su Ziqing looked at the somewhat mad Old Madam Su and said, "My mother's marriage to a man was also agreed upon by my grandfather."
"So, why should they, father and daughter, let others pave the way for their success?" Old Madam Su sneered. "Do they think we're fools?"
Are they overthinking it? No, they're not!
If Su Ziqing's mother were still alive, what would the situation be like now?
He died long ago, and he even planned to leave most of his fortune to Su Ziqing. If his biological daughter were still alive, how biased would the old man be...?
Su Ziqing sneered, "How has Grandpa ever treated you badly? Even when it comes to distributing the property, it's been divided equally!"
"Equally divided? Why should the daughter be entitled to an equal share?" Old Madam Su laughed heartily. "That's the funniest joke I've ever heard."
Deep-seated patriarchal ideas prevented Madam Su from escaping this predicament for decades.
Not to mention, this daughter isn't even his biological daughter.
"There's no cure." Su Ziqing looked at the still unrepentant Old Madam Su and knew that she wouldn't get any details about what happened back then from her.
She called the nanny and had them escort Madam Su down the mountain.
But Old Madam Su suddenly went berserk, almost using all her strength to ram into Su Ziqing, shouting, "You jinx! You want to sit on the family fortune we worked so hard to earn? Go to hell!"
As soon as Old Madam Su arrived, her strength was so great that it seemed as if she had unleashed the greatest power she had ever possessed.
Su Ziqing reacted quickly, then watched as Old Madam Su, without realizing it, lost control and rushed towards the mountain...
A scream was heard.
The mountains are full of withered grass, so death is not impossible, but for old Mrs. Su, with her old bones, injury is inevitable.
The nanny rushed to rescue the person, while Su Ziqing stood still.
Is the old lady out of her mind? Does she really want her dead?
The caregiver carried the old lady up the mountain. She was indeed injured, but she was far from dying.
"Miss Su," the nanny said, looking at her, "there's no doctor here. Should we send her back to the city?"
Su Ziqing hummed in agreement.
The group descended the mountain, with the nanny carrying the injured and unconscious Madam Su on her back.
Before Su Ziqing got back into her car, she saw a car parked next to hers.
"Ziqing." Before she could even guess who it was, Su Ziqing heard a familiar voice.
Gong Chengjue guessed correctly; Su Ziqing was indeed here.
Gong Chengjue glanced at the old lady Su being carried on the nanny's back, then looked at the calm and expressionless Su Ziqing.
"Jinhan, send someone to take her to the hospital first." Gong Chengjue would never allow Su Ziqing to get her hands on anyone's life.
Whether it's passive or active.
"yes."
Su Ziqing stared at Gong Chengjue without moving.
Luo Jinhan and his group left first, leaving only one bodyguard standing to the side.
Gong Chengjue walked towards her, "Are you alright?"
Su Ziqing twitched the corners of her mouth, but suddenly threw herself into his arms.
No, she has something to do.
How could she be alright?
She had always thought her parents had died in an accident, but when she found out it really wasn't an accident, how could she be alright?
She only regretted that she only found out the truth now.
“They…they are not human.” Su Ziqing hugged Gong Chengjue’s waist, resting her head on his chest, her voice choked with sobs.
They initially thought Su Tianhao still possessed some humanity, unlike them, but the truth was...
They really are a family!
Gong Chengjue gently patted her shoulder, "I know." The darkness and selfishness of human nature are fully reflected in the Su family.
Su Ziqing slowly calmed herself down, then gently pushed him away. "Why did you come to City A?"
Gong Chengjue paused for a moment before saying, "I'll pick you up at the airport. Luo Ziqi said you're transferring back to City A."
Su Ziqing stared at him, slightly taken aback. "You went to the airport to pick me up?" His schedule was packed every day, how could he have time to pick her up?
"Hmm," Gong Chengjue hummed in response.
“But haven’t you been particularly busy these past few days? You have an important banquet to attend tomorrow night…” Su Ziqing had heard him mention this before.
"Let's get in the car first." A light drizzle began to fall, and he took her hand and led her towards the car.
Su Ziqing felt a warm sensation coming from her palm, which reassured her a lot.
Once in the car, it headed straight towards the city center. Gong Chengjue couldn't bear to scold her for her impulsiveness, but he still had to remind her, "If you do this, Su Tianhao will find out."
Su Ziqing looked out the window. "I know." But she really couldn't help it at the time.
She just hadn't expected that Old Madam Su would get injured. Since she was injured, she would naturally go to the city for treatment. Once in the city, Su Tianhao would always see Old Madam Su.
And if we meet...
