Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“Zhu has already received the news and went to matchmaker Zhao. Su
Xueqiang left too. I believe it won’t be long before Su Xueqiang comes looking for me.”
“Looking for you? Trying to set you up?” Su Wen nervously clenched her fists.
“Will it be dangerous? Should we call the police?”
“It won’t.” Zhou Hengyang gently held Su Wen’s hand, comforting her. “That Zhu guy wants me to gamble with him. He’ll make me lose so badly, and when the time comes…”
Zhou Hengyang didn’t finish his sentence, but Su Wen understood.
She had witnessed this scenario countless times on television and in newspapers. The husband was addicted to gambling, losing everything, and resorting to desperate measures, even harming his wife and children. The thought sent shivers down Su Wen’s spine.
“We must bring those people to justice. We can’t let them continue to harm others. ”
Su Wen trembled when she thought about the tragic fate of the seven Su sisters in the novel. Her connection with the characters deepened with time. Initially, she could detach herself as an outsider, but spending more time with them made it impossible.
Rage and hatred surged within Su Wen, threatening to drown her.
Zhou Hengyang noticed Su Wen’s abnormality and grew nervous. “Wenwen, what’s wrong?”
“Don’t touch me!” Su Wen reacted quickly and pushed Zhou Hengyang away.
Both were stunned. Zhou Hengyang didn’t expect such a strong reaction from
Su Wen. As she pushed him away, her eyes and tone conveyed a deep hatred.
Hate?
Did she hate him?
“I’m sorry!” Su Wen was shocked. Helplessly, she looked at her hand, as if it were an uncontrollable beast. “I… I didn’t mean it. It wasn’t me, it wasn’t me…”
How could this be?
Su Wen was bewildered. Fear filled her eyes. How could this be?
At that moment, she felt hatred in her heart. She felt disgust, rejection, hatred, and an intense desire for revenge. All these were not what she thought just now.
Although Su Wen was quite clumsy in her daily life, she was never confused about significant matters. Her stance was clear.
Whether reading the novel or after transmigrating, her impression of the male lead had always been positive. In the novel, the female protagonist’s family meets a tragic end due to the original character’s actions.
It had nothing to do with the male lead. She was the one who drove him away. Whom could she blame?
“Wenwen?” Zhou Hengyang’s thick eyebrows furrowed deeply. He suppressed the turmoil in his heart and tried to reach for Su Wen’s hand. However, Su Wen abruptly took a step back.
“Wenwen?” Even if Zhou Hengyang wanted to mend the situation, it seemed challenging this time. “What’s wrong with you? Did I do something wrong? If you’re unhappy, I can apologize. If you don’t want me to join your business with Shen Erkui, I…”
Zhou Hengyang tightly pursed his thin lips. The thought of allowing Shen Erkui and Wen Wen a chance to be alone made him heartbroken. But nothing was more important than Wenwen.
So what if his heart broke for her?
It could be shattered and then pieced back together!
Wiping away the pain in his eyes, Zhou Hengyang spoke lightly, “Alright. Don’t be angry anymore. I support you doing business with Shen Erkui, okay? I initially wanted to buy the Agricultural and Finished Goods Trading market you mentioned. If you cooperate with Shen Erkui, you won’t be able to avoid me. However, since you’re unhappy, I am not joining you guys anymore..”
