Chapter 14 Su Miaowen’s Aspiration for the Future

Su Miaowen thought this way, and Fang Qinghui, who was about to pour water for Su Maoyu, paused her hand for a moment before realizing what Su Maoyu was talking about.

Fang Qinghui’s brows furrowed slightly, a hint of doubt in her eyes. Did Su Xiwan change her appearance after leaving the Su family? Did she stop wearing the bangs and glasses she had asked her to keep before?

Also, Beijing was so big, and Su Xiwan, who had restored her original appearance, was so coincidentally met by Su Maoyu? It must be Su Xiwan who did this on purpose, right? Was she trying to let Su Maoyu know that she still had some use value, and then have Su Maoyu take her back to the Su family?

Heh, this little vixen is too calculating. As long as she, Fang Qinghui, is still in this house, she won’t let Su Xiwan step into the Su family’s door again!

Thinking about this, Fang Qinghui said tentatively:

“That girl always looked like she couldn’t be seen in the house. Why did she change after leaving the Su family? Is she scheming something?”

Su Maoyu, hearing Fang Qinghui say this, also pondered for a moment and said:

“I happened to see her today. I thought she deliberately let me see her face, so that we would take her back to the Su family. Plus, I think, with her appearance, she could definitely find a rich family with a good background, someone who could provide a lot of help to our Su family. I was thinking of taking her back. After all, she is eighteen years old now, and it won’t cost much to raise her for a few more years.

But when I proposed that she come back, her attitude was very cold. In my opinion, her goal is not the Su family. I think she must have already climbed up to a family that is better than our Su family, so she doesn’t look down on our Su family anymore, right?”

The more Su Maoyu spoke, the more he felt that this was what he thought. After all, that community was much more upscale than the one their Su family lived in. The people living there were generally either rich or noble.

When he met Su Xiwan, she was coming out of that community. With Su Xiwan’s appearance now, it wouldn’t be too difficult for her to be with a rich young master from that community.

The more Su Maoyu thought about it, the more he regretted it. He couldn’t help but say:

“If I had known that Su Xiwan had such a good appearance, we shouldn’t have let her leave the Su family. Now, it’s a bit difficult to get her back.”

Su Maoyu said this and took a deep puff of his cigarette. In the swirling smoke, his expression became even gloomier.

Fang Qinghui, hearing Su Maoyu say that he wanted Su Xiwan back, opened her mouth to retort something, but then she thought about the recent setbacks in the Su family’s business, so she only looked at Su Maoyu with a look of hesitation. She didn’t say what she wanted to say.

At this moment, Su Maoyu suddenly remembered what Su Xiwan had said and asked Fang Qinghui with some doubt:

“Wife, when I was talking to Su Xiwan about the Su family’s kindness in raising her, she said she wanted me to ask you about the reason why she and Su Miaowen were switched at birth. Does she know something, or do you know about what happened back then?”

Fang Qinghui, hearing Su Maoyu’s words, her face suddenly stiffened, and her back felt cold. However, she reacted quickly and didn’t let Su Maoyu notice anything.

Fang Qinghui looked at Su Maoyu with a feigned grievance and said:

“Husband, you believe what Su Xiwan said. If I had known about switching the children, why would I have ignored my own biological child and raised someone else’s child? Besides, our Miaowen spent so much time in the orphanage.

Su Xiwan probably doesn’t want to repay our Su family’s kindness to her, so she deliberately tries to stir up trouble between us, right?”

Tears glistened in Fang Qinghui’s eyes, and her voice trembled as if she had been wronged. She didn’t know why Su Xiwan would say that to Su Maoyu. Was she deliberately trying to stir up trouble, or did she really know something? However, she had done that thing so secretly. How could she possibly know about what happened back then? It must be that she was deliberately trying to stir up trouble!

However, Fang Qinghui was still a little uneasy. What if Su Xiwan really knew something? What should she do then? So, she put on a virtuous and generous look and said:

“Husband, Su Xiwan is a child who grew up in our Su family after all. It wasn’t her fault that she was switched at birth. So, raising her is considered a good deed done by our Su family!”

Su Maoyu nodded understandingly after hearing Fang Qinghui’s words. He still believed her. As for Su Xiwan, he didn’t know which rich family she had climbed up to yet. If he wanted to build a relationship, he would have to wait until he found out more.

Fang Qinghui, seeing that Su Maoyu no longer pursued the matter, secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She didn’t want to talk about Su Xiwan anymore, so she decided to change the topic:

“Husband, how is the company doing lately? Did the investor you met today agree to invest?”

Su Maoyu picked up the cigarette box on the coffee table, lit another cigarette, and took a deep puff, saying:

“I’m not sure yet. No matter how I hinted, that person was very cunning and didn’t give me a definite answer!” His brows were furrowed, his eyes filled with anxiety and helplessness.

Su Maoyu had been worrying about the company’s affairs lately. The company had been smooth sailing for all these years, and this was the first time he had encountered such a troublesome matter.

Su Maoyu was thinking about this when he suddenly saw Su Miaowen sitting quietly beside him. He asked softly:

“Miaowen, how is your relationship with Zhixun now?”

Su Miaowen, hearing Su Maoyu suddenly change the topic to her, was a bit nervous at first, but then she quickly calmed down and deliberately pretended to be shy, saying:

“Dad, Zhixun and I are in contact every day, but we are both in school and don’t have time to meet.” Su Miaowen’s voice was soft, and a blush appeared on her face.

Gu Zhixun was the arranged marriage between the two families when Fang Qinghui was still pregnant with Su Miaowen. However, they didn’t know that Su Miaowen and Su Xiwan had been switched at birth. So, this marriage had always been for Su Xiwan.

However, Su Xiwan was not liked by her and her wife, and the Su family’s company had always been doing well. Su Xiwan always stayed at school, and even during the summer vacation, she rarely came back. Outsiders didn’t know what the Su family’s daughter looked like. Gu Zhixun had met Su Xiwan a few times when he came to the Su family, but he didn’t like her very much, so Su Maoyu hadn’t forced anything on the two children.

Fang Qinghui, hearing Su Miaowen’s words, couldn’t help but proudly say:

“I think our Miaowen has done a good job. Last week, we took Miaowen to a banquet, and Zhixun was inseparable from Miaowen!”

“Really? Okay, okay, Miaowen, you have to get along well with Zhixun. After all, you are engaged! After you get your university acceptance letter, we will go ahead and set the date for your wedding with Zhixun!” Su Maoyu’s eyes were filled with anticipation. He hoped that his daughter would successfully marry into the Gu family and bring more benefits and support to the Su family.

Su Miaowen, hearing Su Maoyu’s words, nodded obediently and said: “I’ll listen to Dad!”

Actually, Su Miaowen was very unsure. After all, these days, it was she who had been taking the initiative to contact Gu Zhixun. Sometimes, Gu Zhixun didn’t seem very enthusiastic in replying to her messages. They had only just met, and sometimes when she talked to him, she didn’t know what to say.

Su Miaowen had a faint feeling that Gu Zhixun was only nice to her in the first two days after she came back. These days, Su Miaowen felt that he was getting colder and colder towards her.

She thought that she would use the skills she had learned before to cultivate their relationship this weekend or after the college entrance exam. After all, he would be her husband in the future, and the Gu family’s background was even better than the Su family’s.

Su Miaowen thought that if she could marry into the Gu family, wouldn’t there be more people to flatter and please her? Su Miaowen was already happy just thinking about it. This life of luxury was really good. It was nothing like her previous life, where she had to work hard for everything.
