Chapter 177: Ill-gotten Wealth



The crew's filming entered the key part and everyone started to get busy, including Su Nan. She had to read the script and find time to review at the same time. She was like a spinning top in the square, constantly being pulled by people, with no free time at all.

After such high-intensity work, in October, before everyone had time to catch their breath, they learned an explosive news, that is, the country announced the resumption of the college entrance examination that had been stagnant for many years.

Anyone, regardless of gender, age or status, can register for this exam.

For a time, the whole country was in an uproar, with mixed feelings of joy and sorrow. Those who were quick to react had already rushed to major bookstores to buy textbooks and notebooks.

Those who go late won’t even be able to buy a pen.

Looking at the piles of notebooks and pens in her space, Su Nan decided to make some "ill-gotten gains", so she would take advantage of her nap at noon every day to stake out the route to the bookstore.

She was wearing a mask and a hat, holding a stack of notebooks in her hands and a bunch of pens in her bag. She stood under the shade of a tree, waiting for the "fish" to take the bait.

Within a few days, she sold all the extra notebooks and pens at high prices and made a fortune.

After counting all her current savings, Su Nan sent all her savings, a total of 1,000 yuan, and all the gifts Zhou Rang had given her before, without touching a single cent, to the Shanghai address Zhou Rang had given her before. She also made a note on the cover and specifically asked him to sign for it in person.

Now, I have paid off all the material entanglements, including the money for medicine, gifts, etc., and finally I don’t owe you anything. Now the only thing left is you owe me. You are a scumbag who cheated on another girl and got her pregnant, and a coward who left without saying goodbye. Bah.

All of Su Nan's confidence returned, and the anger that had been pent up in his heart was finally released, and he felt extremely relieved.

The moment she sent it out, her other side was roaring again, asking why she should return it to him. After being in a relationship for so long, shouldn't she let this scumbag pay a price?

Even though he was so rich, this little bit of stuff was just a tickle to him.

No, Su Nan wanted him to feel guilty after receiving these things, so that he wouldn't be able to sleep or eat well day and night, and wouldn't be able to be his new father happily.

But Su Nan, who had just returned from the post office, couldn't help but burst into tears on the way. She cried breathlessly and wanted to take out the key to unlock the door, but she couldn't find the right hole to insert it into. She was so angry that she couldn't help but kick the door several times.

Then she squatted on the ground and started crying unrestrainedly, feeling very aggrieved.

Song Changzhi, who had just returned from walking his dog, heard a heart-wrenching cry from a distance. The sound seemed very familiar, so he led his dog and followed the source of the sound.

I actually saw a girl in a blue coat at my doorstep. She was squatting on the steps crying very sadly.

"Xiao Su?" Song Changzhi called out tentatively, but he didn't expect that when the other party raised her head, it was really her.

Su Nan's appearance at this time was completely different from the previous two times they met. He could even be described as sloppy and embarrassed.

Why was this little girl crying so hard? Did something happen to her? And why was she at his doorstep?

"Mr. Song." Su Nan wiped away her tears and forced herself to smile. When her emotions gradually recovered, she realized that she had found the wrong place and opened the wrong door.

"I'm sorry, I got confused and found the wrong door."

Su Nan smiled awkwardly, got up from the ground, and wanted to go back to his room, but was stopped by Song Changzhi: "How about having a bowl of corn and pork rib soup before leaving? I think you are not in a good state. You should stay away from being alone for a while."

As if possessed by some mysterious force, Su Nan followed an old man whom he had only met twice into the house.

The moment the door was pushed open, Su Nan's eyes lit up and she almost forgot to cry. She followed Song Changzhi inside in a daze.

"A courtyard, a world of freedom."

As soon as you enter the door and take a few steps, you will see a rockery. It is more like it is arranged than stacked. After careful carving, it forms a unique landscape with its own style.

There are several clumps of green bamboo planted next to the rockery. The morning glory shoots break through the soil, entwine around the bamboo and slowly climb up the rockery, adding a bit of purple color to it, like a finishing touch, making it different from other rockery.

There were all kinds of flowers planted beside the gravel path, but Su Nan couldn't name them. She just thought they were beautiful and didn't know anything else.

Under a cassia tree there is a stone round table and two stone benches, on which are scattered a few small yellow cassia flowers.

Song Changzhi brushed the yellow osmanthus flowers to the ground with his hands, asked Su Nan to sit on the stone bench, then tied the dog to the osmanthus tree and turned to walk towards the kitchen.

Being in an unfamiliar environment, Su Nan placed his hands on his knees feeling somewhat at a loss, tears once again flowing uncontrollably from his eyes.

But after a while, she felt something furry rubbing against her ankle. When she looked down, she found it was the cat named "Laosan".

"Are you here to comfort me?" Su Nan smiled through her tears, wiped the tears from her cheeks with a tissue, bent down, picked up the third child, and helped him to lie down.

But when he noticed that he was wearing the crew's coat, Su Nan first put his coat on the rockery beside him before continuing to pet the cat.

"Meow meow." The third child felt very comfortable being touched. He rolled around in Su Nan's arms, then rubbed his head against her hand, his amber eyes shining.

Su Nan was touched by the cute pet and her depressed mood gradually recovered. She sighed softly and lamented that she couldn't hold back her tears.

Why are you crying? What's there to cry about? It's not worth crying for a man like this.

He cursed Zhou Rang from beginning to end in his heart. Suddenly at this moment, a heart-wrenching cough came from a room not far away. It sounded like someone was choking on water, or like he was coughing dryly for no reason.

In short, when Su Nan heard the cough, he felt uncomfortable for the other person. If he continued coughing like this, would he be unable to breathe?

"Come here, Xiao Su, try the soup I made this morning. Although it's not freshly cooked, it's the most flavorful and the best time to eat it now." Song Changzhi interrupted Su Nan's thoughts while holding a bowl of soup.

"Mr. Song, I seem to hear someone coughing in the room over there. They are coughing quite violently. Is he okay?" Su Nan took the bowl of soup and placed it on the stone table in front of him, pointing in the direction of the coughing with some concern.

Song Changzhi looked in the direction Su Nan pointed and waved his hand nonchalantly, "No, it's my grandson who's recuperating in there. The doctor said it's best for him to stay in bed. I won't introduce you to each other. We'll talk about it later when there's a chance."

"Oh." Su Nan nodded.
