Chapter 164 Don't Forget Your Identity
After autumn comes winter.
Xia Yutong's studio is receiving more and more orders every day, and they are completely overwhelmed. They had no choice but to hire two more people to help out. They are both recent college graduates from the village who are unwilling to go to the city and just want to find a job in the surrounding area to make a living.
When winter came, Su Yuanzheng's rose garden became completely desolate, and he was able to free up some time to do what he wanted to do. He wanted to take the postgraduate entrance exam and prepared for it a few months in advance.
Xia Yutong only just found out that he had this plan, and asked him, "Su Yuanzheng, taking the postgraduate entrance exam, in a few months... are you kidding me??"
Although he was first in the county in the college entrance examination back then, so much time has passed, and it won't be easy for him to regain that position.
"I'll just give it a try. Don't take it seriously. If it doesn't work, then forget it."
Xia Yutong asked him, "Did you also take the postgraduate entrance exam in your previous life?"
"Um."
Xia Yutong: ……
She really couldn't remember what happened after that; all she could think about was getting Su Yuanzheng to forgive her and treat her like before.
Su Qinglian and Xu Lei have been married for quite some time, but she has never gotten along well with Xu Lei's mother.
Xu Lei's parents had already accepted Su Qinglian, and everyone sincerely wished the two of them well. Since they couldn't control her, it wouldn't be right for them not to give their blessings and instead turn their backs on her.
The couple's original plan was to have a child while the pregnancy was still going strong, since they had lied about it. However, just a few days after their marriage, Su Qinglian's aunt came.
That time, her period was unusually heavy. Su Qinglian explained that it was because she hadn't had sex in a long time, and after having sex with Xu Lei, she felt better...
However, this exposed the fact that she was faking her pregnancy.
Xu's mother had thought that since she was pregnant, she should go ahead with the marriage for the sake of the child, but it turned out to be a fake pregnancy... Xu's mother immediately questioned Su Qinglian and Xu Lei.
Xu Lei remained silent, keeping his head down and enduring the scolding.
But Su Qinglian couldn't take it anymore. "Mom, what do you want to do? We're already married. No matter what you do, you can't change that fact."
"Xu Lei and I will have children, it's only a matter of time, why are you in such a hurry?"
"If you hadn't told me you were pregnant, I wouldn't have agreed at all."
"Now that you've agreed, and Xu Lei and I have already registered our marriage, are you telling us to get a divorce?"
After that incident, Xu's mother and Qinglian lived under the same roof, but they never spoke to each other when they met.
After learning about Su Qinglian, Liu Yaozong's mother, Old Lady Liu, also started looking for work. She would often say she wanted to come and see Xiao Mi, trying to sow discord between them.
Once, when Grandma Liu came to visit Xiaomi, after she left, Xia Yutong pulled Xiaomi aside and asked her, "What did she say to you?"
"It's nothing, it just means that Mom doesn't love me anymore after she had my little brother."
What are you thinking?
While eating the potato chips that Grandma Liu had spent a lot of money on, Xiao Mi said, "I think they're fake."
"What's wrong?"
"Before my aunt gave birth to my little sister, some people said that they would not like me anymore after my aunt gave birth to my little sister, but no, everyone still likes me very much, and my aunt loves me very much too."
"Good girl."
Xiaomi chuckled and then ran off to play without a care in the world.
Su Qinglian happened to witness this scene and was deeply moved.
After telling Xu Lei, he put a hand on her shoulder and said, "Qinglian, we lied..."
"I know, but they're all married."
"I won't say anything, but you have to unconditionally give in to my mom, and still greet her when you see her, after all, she's my mom..."
"I understand, I will try my best, but please don't have too high expectations of me."
——
Xia Yutong was halfway through her work when Su Yuanzheng came in from outside, put his hands on her shoulders and massaged them. Xia Yutong leaned against him and said, "Okay, you can go back to work now."
"I'm not busy, I'll just follow you around, okay, Miss Xia?"
"good."
Xia Yutong yawned lazily, took the man's hand, and looked up at the sky above the cabin.
From the moment she learned that she wasn't from another time, she felt very insecure, always feeling that she might leave at any time.
She asked, "Su Yuanzheng, what exactly happened in your previous life?"
"nothing."
"Many things seem to be getting increasingly blurry."
"Don't think about it anymore, Tongtong..."
Zhou Jin had tried to find A Huan several times, but A Huan refused to let him in each time. Zhou Jin only dared to shout outside the village and did not dare to approach the village at all.
As Su Yuanzheng's Rose Garden expanded, many people saw its commercial value and wanted to invest after visiting. However, Su Yuanzheng rejected all investors, and his largest investor could only be Shang Xingchuan.
Xia Yutong's short video platform held an annual meeting in winter.
Xia Yutong was invited to attend the event and met many important figures. The platform's annual meeting was attended not only by big internet celebrities like her, but also by many investors.
Among these investors, one of them is Zhou Hengzhi.
After browsing through the list, Su Yuanzheng still felt a little uneasy. "Zhou Hengzhi?"
"Why are you panicking? I only like you."
Xia Yutong discovered that Zhou Hengzhi especially enjoyed hearing her say that she liked him, and he never got tired of hearing it no matter how many times he heard it.
Su Yuanzheng's heart had long been softened by her sweet words, and he did whatever she said.
After arriving, Xia Yutong was very self-disciplined. She couldn't drink alcohol while breastfeeding, so she substituted orange juice for alcohol. Wherever she went, she was the most eye-catching person in the crowd.
Zhou Hengzhi kept trying to talk to her, but Hua Xin glared at him and followed him closely the whole time.
Until Zhou Hengzhi couldn't take it anymore and tried to break free.
Hua Xin said with a warning, "Zhou Hengzhi, you'd better not try to test my bottom line..."
What are your bottom lines?
The man frowned. "Hua Xin, don't forget who you are."
"It is precisely because I have not forgotten that I must remind you not to forget."
Xia Yutong was right in front of him, but he couldn't reach out to touch her.
She wore a pink Chinese-style dress, walking among the crowd with a glass of orange juice in her hand, lingering there, brushing past Zhou Hengzhi without even raising her eyelids.
Hua Xin couldn't stand it anymore, so she stretched out her foot to trip her, but Xia Yutong deliberately stepped on it with her high heel, crushing it hard.
"ah!"
Hua Xin cried out in pain immediately, "You did that on purpose, didn't you?"
Xia Yutong shook her head. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."
Zhou Hengzhi took a deep breath and looked at her up close. Seeing this woman, whom he could have obtained with just a little effort, now standing arrogantly in front of him with an attitude that he could not touch, Zhou Hengzhi felt extremely uncomfortable.
Zhou Jin, standing to the side, was practically spitting fire, but she only felt jealousy towards Xia Yutong, no longer harboring the same disgust as before. So she decided to ignore these trivial matters and walked a long way away with her wine glass.
Hua Hin was always a magnanimous woman in public. Her instep was stepped on hard, and it hurt. She broke out in a cold sweat, but she couldn't get angry.
Just then, Zhou Hengzhi said, "Don't forget what I told you."
Xia Yutong looked at him and said, "Isn't it inappropriate to say these things in front of Mrs. Zhou?"
The cameras were clicking away, and everyone knew that the woman in the south was the woman Zhou Hengzhi loved but could not have.
Zhou Hengzhi felt a lump in his throat, only to see the woman give him a cold smile...
