55 -55: No Mercy

Even though Mr.

Su had always been nice to Zhe, hearing these words, Su Yukan still couldn’t help but get a bit agitated.

But this agitation was different from when he spoke to Su Lu.

Su Yukan said anxiously, “How can that be?

Zhe, Aunt Zhu and Jiaojiao are all family, and Jiaojiao is your blood-related younger sister!”

“Regarding how Zhu Xinyan managed to enter our house, I won’t go into detail, but both you and I are clear about it.

Back then, I was too young to bother with it much, and as I grew up, I just couldn’t be bothered too much.

But it seems that my indifference has made them believe they could act with impunity?”

Zhe set down the small hand grinder, neatly folded the filter paper, and placed it in the filter cup, then took down the hand drip kettle from the electric stove that had boiled the water.

Coffee ground poured into the filter paper, and the slender spout of the kettle emitted hot water, saturating both the filter paper and the coffee grounds, causing the rich aromatic coffee liquid to drip into the cup below.

Su Yukan suddenly fell silent.

Indeed, Zhu Xinyan had entered the household as a mistress, not exactly an honorable thing.

During that time, Su Yukan had been quite cautious, worried that his physically weak eldest son would become angry.

However, back then Zhe had quite calmly accepted it, or it would be more accurate to say he had acquiesced.

It was unexpected that after so many years, Zhe would suddenly bring up the past.

“Zhe, no matter what, Aunt Zhu has treated you quite well over the years, and Jiaojiao respects you.

You…”

Su Yukan’s words were not yet finished when he got interrupted.

“Right, I forgot to mention, I, Su Zhe, only acknowledge one blood-related sister.

And it isn’t Su Jiao,” Zhe added.

Having brewed a cup of coffee, he lifted his gaze towards Su Lu sitting on the living room sofa and beckoned her over.

Su Lu felt a warmth surge in her heart upon hearing his words, even if she could guess the unpleasant words Su Yukan might say next, she felt that it didn’t matter anymore.

Su Lu stood up and walked over, taking the coffee Zhe handed to her.

She moved her lips and mouthed the words, “Thank you, brother.”

Zhe curled up the corner of his mouth and continued grinding and brewing.

He was a very patient man.

Su Yukan said anxially from the other end, “Are you talking about Su Lu?!

What…

what sort of spell has she cast on you?

Just for such a questionable stray girl, you would disown your own family?

How is she related to you by blood?”

Zhe responded, “How do you think she is related to me by blood?”

Her blood ran through his body, her bone marrow had been transplanted into him.

Wasn’t that considered blood-related?

Su Yukan, hearing his implication, was taken aback for a moment, and then his voice filled with resentment, “After raising her for so many years, to hurt and turn my family against each other.

If I had known it would come to this, I wouldn’t have kept her!”

“Enough!” Zhe’s voice finally fluctuated with emotion, no longer wanting to hear more, he simply stated, “One month.

After a month, don’t blame me for being uncompassionate.”

He then hung up the call.

After the call ended, Zhe looked up towards the living room sofa.

“Xiaolu…”

He had initially planned to comfort Su Lu, after all, the words from Su Yukan had indeed been harsh.

But what he saw was her sitting cross-legged on the sofa, comfortably leaning against the backrest, leisurely sipping from a coffee cup, and even nibbling on a cookie, resembling a sneaky little mouse.

The concerns in Zhe’s heart immediately dissipated, he lowered his gaze and smiled somewhat helplessly.

Although they lived in the same compound, Zhe still insisted on walking her back.

Upon reaching the unit’s entrance, Su Lu looked at him and smiled.

“What are you laughing at?” Zhe arched an eyebrow.

Su Lu shook her head, “Brother, you really don’t have to worry about my mood, especially to personally walk me back home for such a short distance.

Don’t worry about Su Yukan’s words affecting my mood, I…I’m used to it already.”

Su Zhe stared at her for a moment, sighed lightly, and then raised his hand to rub the top of her head.

Su Zhe knew that by saying this, she intended to put his mind at ease.

But she didn’t know that her words only made him feel more heartache.

What’s so good about that?

To have gotten used to it…

It was also because of this digression that Su Lu hadn’t contacted Bo Jingshen that evening.

The next day, she had to return to the office to handle the work that had piled up during her days in Hai City, to review documents, attend meetings, and so on.

By the time she finished with all this, it was already four days later.

Neither Su Yukan nor Zhu Xinyan and Su Jiao had come to bother her.

Though Su Lu’s days were busy, they were still quite comfortable.

“Mr.

Su, as long as those few people don’t come to find trouble, I’d rather work overtime,” Xu Ning said, sitting on the sofa in Su Lu’s office, devouring a boxed lunch.

Because of the increased workload these past few days, Su Lu, seeing Xu Ning’s struggles, had ordered takeout from good restaurants every day and also bought back the milk tea she liked.

Not only for Xu Ning, but for the whole secretarial office.

It was just that Xu Ning, familiar and on good terms with her, would come to her office to eat together.

Su Lu knew whom Xu Ning meant by ‘those few people’; it was tough on Xu Ning, who had worked by her side for so long.

Su Lu hadn’t caused her any grief, but the Su family had given Xu Ning plenty of undeserved trouble.

“Yes, you’ve really toughened up.

I still remember the first time they came to cause trouble; didn’t they make you cry?” Su Lu laughed.

“Hey, I was young and naive back then.

Now if they spat in my face…” Xu Ning exclaimed, waving her arm.

Su Lu frowned, “That’s too much.

We’re eating.”

“Too much?” Xu Ning changed her phrasing, “Now if they poked my nose, I could still smile and skillfully deflect their attack!

I’ve grown, Mr.

Su, I’ve grown.”

“Yes, yes,” Su Lu nodded repeatedly, “Since you’re so magnanimous, maybe I shouldn’t pay you overtime?”

“Mr.

Skinflint,” Xu Ning laughed, “But…

didn’t you say you wanted to collaborate on a new project later?

There’s been no movement on that front; do you need me to make some inquiries?”

After resuming work, Su Lu mentioned her plans to collaborate on a project with Jiang Li to Xu Ning.

Now with Xu Ning bringing it up suddenly, Su Lu realized this matter hadn’t yet been scheduled.

Xu Ning rubbed her nose, “Brother Su also mentioned it.”

The Brother Su Xu Ning referred to was Su Zhe; he indeed had also said that he would help her look into this project.

“Yeah, you don’t need to handle it; I’ll do it myself,” Su Lu said.

Xu Ning packed up her lunch box and took it out, while Su Lu sat on the sofa, somewhat distracted.

Yes, these few days she had been busy with work, which left her with no time and no desire to think more about it.

But actually…

Su Lu held her phone, her lips lightly pursed.

Since returning from Hai City, Bo Jingshen hadn’t contacted her again.

She didn’t even know why, nor what had happened, just that suddenly…

there had been no contact.

Although, it seemed like before going to Hai City, they hadn’t been in touch much either.

But since returning from Hai City, Su Lu always felt things should be different from before.
