章節 46: MORE THAN ENOUGH (PART 2)

Xue Lin said, "I understand what you said is right but right now I'm not interested in it. If I'm not interested, no matter how you force me, nothing will change. I might even make a mistake so that no one can force me to do it."

The Head Butler said, "But young mistress, there will be parties you have to attend to. At that time, you need your maids, fashion designers, and makeup artists. You have to look perfect in front of others because you will be representing the Su Family."

Xue Lin paused. She slowly turned towards him and asked, "Will those parties prepare a feast?"

The Head Butler didn't understand her motive. He only said the truth, "Of course, young mistress. Those high-class parties arrange lots of delicious meals from different cultures."

Xue Lin instantly agreed. "I understand. When there is a party, I'll let the maids take care of my facial beauty."

She didn't have to think about it that hard. If she had to represent the Su Family she would do so for her husband. The Su grandparents raised their grandson wonderfully and she did not doubt it. That's why she was grateful. Moreover, she would have free delicious and expensive meals, why would she refuse? 'Marrying into a rich family isn't always bad…'

After she appeased the Head Butler, she was left alone. Just as she thought, her fever went down after a good sleep. It was dark when she came to the Su Mansion. In the morning, she was able to see the beautiful flower garden, gorgeous sculpture, a fountain, and a small pond.

Xue Lin sat down on the dock, took off her sandals, and put her legs on the pond. The water was cold and she felt comfortable. The sunlight hit the ground and kept her body warm. A huge oak tree shaded her from the sunlight. The smell of youthful grass made her doze off.

When she woke up from the nap, she felt that something was wrapped around her body. She opened her eyes and saw a sky-blue shawl was covering her body. She sensed a presence and looked at her right side. It was Su Fengfei. He was wearing a yellow ocher shirt, three-quarter khaki-colored pants, and a Texas hat on his head. He was barefooted just like her. He had a rod in his hands and it was easy to understand that he was trying to catch fish.

As she moved, Su Fengfei noticed that she woke up. "Good morning, lass. Did you sleep well?"

"I was just taking a nap." Xue Lin said. She was leaning against the wooden railing of the dock. She covered her mouth and yawned.

Su Fengfei said, "There is a bottle of orange juice in the basket. Xiao Chen ordered it for you."

"That's so kind of him." She opened the basket and drank a mouthful juice. The cold juice felt better under the warm sunlight.

"You fell asleep in a dangerous place. Xiao Chen was guarding you before I came to accompany you. I never saw him acting so warmly to anyone before." Su Fengfei smiled. His eyes looked painful.

She looked at the pond and asked, "Is that so? How was he before?"

Su Fengfei narrated the whole story short. "He was a cheerful and friendly boy when he was in the Ge Mansion. But after his father bought his mistress who was pregnant, everything started to change. He realized that his fantasy had ended. But he still preserved his smile for his mother. After she died, that was gone too. I brought him with me and raised him here. But my friend Ge Guiren took him to the Ge Mansion when he was sixteen. When he turned eighteen, he got the power to control the Su Corporation. His father wanted to have the corporation but Xiao Chen refused and so his father kicked him out. Xiao Chen could ask for our help but he was just too different from others. He silently went back to B City where he and his mother were used to living before her death. Who knew he would grow up so wonderfully? But the loneliness and the darkness he had in his heart, it didn't disappear."

Xue Lin knitted her eyebrows. "That man who took Chen back to that mansion, who was he?"

Su Fengfei looked at her in surprise. "Why? Didn't you meet him yesterday? Xiao Chen introduced you to him, his paternal grandfather. Have you already forgotten his name?"

Thinking about that made her feel bitter. Her expression turned cold when she answered, "I didn't bother to memorize a trashy name."

Su Fengfei burst into laughter. "Ahahaha! Joke of the year! I'll remember to tell my wife."

Xue Lin wasn't bothered by it. She said, "That old geezer took Chen there only because he wanted the company. Didn't you understand that?"

Su Fengfei stopped laughing and said, "We all did but we thought that Xiao Chen would love to be with his father and grandfather. He was a daddy's son, you know. We asked Xiao Chen before letting him go but he didn't react to it. We almost lost contact with him when he went back there."

Xue Lin's frown deepened. "It's normal since that prostitute and her brainless son were there to bully him all the time. And judging by his character I think he digested everything without complaint."

"Pfft!" Se Fengfei almost choked while drinking and started coughing vigorously.

"Ah! Are you okay?" Xue Lin hesitantly patted his back.

"I-I'm okay." Su Fengfei found her very interesting. He never thought that someone like that even existed. The Ge Family was the second powerful family in China and she was talking so brazenly about them without care. However, no one can point a finger at her since she was telling the truth.

Xue Lin played with her fingers and then asked, "Grandpa, I was thinking of asking you something personal." She didn't wait for the approval and asked, "Why did you let that old man stay here when he was the reason your only daughter suffered. He was eyeing for your company. Haven't you realized that?"
