Chapter 85: Stop Calling Me ‘Sister’
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Su Ning placed the box on the table and said, “Everything is in the box. You can check the contents. If there’s no problem, it’s time for you to fulfill your end of the promise.”
Su Yu opened the box and checked the items carefully. Although the jewelry pieces inside were not in the best shape, it was normal for there to be some wear and tear after so many years. At the very least, most of the things her mother left behind back then were still here. This made her very happy. As for the things that were missing, she would not care about them.
She closed the box and placed it beside her.
“I can call Xiao Yunfeng now, but I have another condition!”
Su Yu said calmly.
Su Ning was a little uneasy and even angry, but she forced herself not to flare up.
“Tell me what other conditions you have. As long as I can fulfill them, I’ll do it!”
Su Ning was going all out. Money could be earned and things could be bought, but her youth and life could not be ruined.
Su Yu looked at Su Ning and was actually very impressed by her choice and decisiveness. Although she really could not stand Su Ning’s character and even despised her, some qualities of her were still worth commending. If it were her, she might not be able to do this.
“The condition is very simple. Don’t call me ‘Sister’ anymore! You, as well as the Su family, and I have long severed all ties. As for you, I’ll give you a piece of advice on behalf of my mother. If you commit too many evil deeds, you’ll bring about your own destruction. You should have a bottom line!”
When Su Ning heard this, her expression was a little ugly, but no one could tell what she was thinking. Only the unnatural and uneasy look in her eyes could reveal that she was not as calm as she looked.
“Don’t worry. I won’t call you ‘Sister’ anymore!”
When Su Ning said this, her voice was a little low. She knew very well how Su Yu had treated her all these years. At this moment, apart from feeling uneasy, she also felt a little uncomfortable.
Su Yu did not go back on her word. After hearing Su Ning agree to her second condition, she called Xiao Yunfeng in front of Su Ning.
“Mr. Xiao, I’ve reached an agreement with Su Ning. You don’t have to force her to marry into the Xiao family anymore.”
When Xiao Yunfeng heard this, he naturally agreed immediately. Although he had already apologized sincerely previously, Miss Su reaching out to him to give him instructions was proof that she had truly forgiven him. If he could build a relationship with Miss Su, it would be beneficial to the Xiao family in the future. Of course, this was wishful thinking. He could only think about it in his mind, but he did not dare to cross the line. Moreover, if he really got Su Ning to marry into the Xiao family, their family would be in chaos judging from what a troublemaker she was. If it were not for the fact that Pei Tianlin’s orders could not be violated, he would not have accepted Su Ning at all.
Now that the conflict with Su Yu had been resolved, the Xiao family no longer faced a crisis.
Su Yu put down the phone and looked at Su Ning. “As you heard, the Xiao family has already agreed. They won’t force you anymore. You can leave now.”
Su Ning had watched Su Yu make the call. She could even vaguely hear the other party’s voice on the phone. The other party had indeed agreed. She did not expect this matter to go so smoothly. It was so smooth that it made her suspect something. However, the truth was right in front of her. She chose to believe in Su Yu. However, she was puzzled. Xiao Yunfeng was a rich man with a high status. Why was he so amiable when facing Su Yu? Could it be that there was something going on between the two of them?
She did not think that the two of them shared an inappropriate relationship. After all, she could tell at the banquet yesterday that the two of them did not know each other at all. If they really had something going on with each other, he would not have agreed to let her marry his son. However, she was sure that there must be an unknown relationship between the two of them.
Seeing Su Ning leave the cafe, Su Yu picked up the box, paid the bill, and left.
After returning to her room at home, Su Yu sat on the bed and slowly opened the box. The jewelry that once belonged to her mother seemed to still have traces of her mother’s name on them. When she saw them, it was as if she could see her mother’s kind and amiable face. Su Yu’s eyes were slightly red as she held the jewelry pieces. She tried to identify each one and recall them. She cried and laughed at the same time. The grievances and pain in her heart poured out uncontrollably. After a long time, her tears dried up. When she continued to go through the belongings, she suddenly noticed an inconspicuous necklace.
