Chapter 117 - Don’t Be Unhappy
Chapter 117: Don’t Be Unhappy
A gust of wind blew in from outside the window. Su Yan faced the sunlight and said, “When I was young, I kept thinking, why, why didn’t my adoptive parents love me? I was already very serious, careful, and hardworking to be a good child, but why did my adoptive parents not treat me well?”
With that said, Su Yan turned around. Under the sunlight, Su Yan’s skin was so white that it seemed to be glowing.
“It was only later that I found out that there were indeed despicable people who only cared about themselves. Later on, my adoptive parents found their biological daughter. When there were no conflicts of interest, they were kind and filial. But when there was a conflict of interest, they were the first to start complaining to each other.”
As she said that, Su Yan clicked her tongue lightly. Every time she thought back to how the Su family of three loved each other from the beginning to them turning on one another later, she could only sigh and say that things were really unpredictable.
Yun Tian looked at Su Yan’s slightly sad expression and suddenly felt a little guilty. Did she do something wrong? Did she bring up Su Yan’s sad past? She had also heard about what happened before Su Yan returned to the Yun family. She had only heard that she was not doing well, but she had never thought that she would be so sad.
In Yun Tian’s heart, her Sister Yun Xi was an omnipotent person. To be able to make such a person reveal such a sad expression, just how deeply had she been injured back then?
Yun Tian racked her brains to think of something to say to appease Su Yan. However, she could not find a way to do so. After a long while, she suddenly thought of something. She could find her brother-in-law to console her sister! With this thought in mind, Yun Tian ran out and found Su Yan’s phone. She sent a video invitation to Shi Qing.
On the other hand, Shi Qing had just started his rehabilitation today. His cold and stern face was filled with fatigue, and the hair on the side of his face was stuck to his face.
Xu Xin ran over with Shi Qing’s phone. “Boss, it’s Miss Yun’s video call invitation.”
Video call? Shi Qing paused for a moment and quickly got someone to help him tidy up his appearance. Then, he sat on the wheelchair and casually put on a coat. He found a relatively good spot and answered the call.
However, the person on the other side of the video was not the Su Yan that Shi Qing had been thinking about day and night. Instead, it was a red-haired girl.
Just as Shi Qing frowned, the girl on the other side said anxiously, “Brother-in-law, quickly comfort Sister. She seems to have recalled what happened at the Su family previously and is a little unhappy.” After saying that, she jogged over and placed the phone in Su Yan’s hands. She even said, “Sister, Brother-in-law is calling.”
After doing all of this, Yun Tian left the room. The moment she closed the door, Yun Tian leaned against the wall and let out a long breath. She put her palms together and prayed, “I hope Brother-in-law can comfort Sister, I hope that Sister can be happy.”
Su Yan, who was in the room, looked at Yun Tian’s hasty back view with amusement. She began to suspect that Yun Tian was really seventeen years old. Why was she not so lively in her previous life?
“What happened just now? Yun Tian told me that you were a little sad.” Shi Qing asked in amusement when he saw Su Yan’s expression change several times.
In the end, it was Su Yan who thought something was wrong with Shi Qing. Su Yan looked at Shi Qing’s slightly haggard face in the video and could not help but ask, “How long has it been since you slept? Look at your dark circles, they are already so big.” After saying that, she noticed that Shi Qing’s hair was a little weird. She asked again, “Also, what’s with your hair? How busy are you over there? Why didn’t you wash your hair?”
It was really too sudden just now. Shi Qing’s hair had not dried much either, and he looked as if he had not washed it for days.
Looking at Shi Qing’s state, Su Yan’s heart ached terribly, but she could not say it.
Listening to Su Yan’s words, Shi Qing curled his lips and said with a smile, “I’ve indeed been a little busy these few days. I’ll be fine after this period of time. Xixi, I’m going back soon. I’ll give you a surprise when I get back, okay?”
Su Yan thought for a moment and asked, “Are you going to bring me a luxurious necklace from Company A or Company B?”
Naturally, Shi Qing knew that Su Yan was joking. To people like them, money was just a number. If spending money could improve Su Yan’s mood, it was worth it for Shi Qing.
“You want it? Sure, I’ll help you bring it back. Do you want the Company D’s ring? I saw that Company D has just released a new product and it looks quite nice.”
“You want to buy me a ring?” Su Yan lowered her head and rubbed the soles of her feet. “Since you’re so sincere, it’s not that I can’t accept it. It’s just that when you gave me a ring, I still had some requests.”
How well did Shi Qing know Su Yan?
The moment Su Yan opened her mouth, Shi Qing knew what she was going to say. He smiled and replied, “There will be. There will be flowers, fireworks, candles. Don’t worry, I will definitely give you the most romantic scene in the world.”
Su Yan paused, then blushed. “Who wants this? It’s not like I’m asking for a proposal. Who wants these things?”
