In the past few years, Su Mei has not entirely forgotten about her past and her first two children. The twin was a hurdle in her heart that she couldnât get past, and at the same time, also a nightmare she didnât want to face and remember.
âThank you for finding the children, and also for raising them,â Su Mei said to Mr. Qin: âIf possible, I want to bring them to live with me. Iâll fulfill my responsibility as their mother. This also to make up what I owe them.â
The current Su Mei was a lot more mature than before. She had considered this issue carefully: Her familyâs condition was good now, and her husband also knew that she had two children previously. It should be no problem for her to pick up Su Bei and Xiaobao to live with her.
Su Meiâs words almost made Mr. Qin laugh out in anger.
âMrs. Liâs âthank youâ is misplaced. Xiaobei and Xiaobei are my children. It is natural for me to raise them, and there is no need for outsiders to thank me.â He agreed to meet Su Mei, only to give the childrenâs biological mother a chance to explain, not to let her ask for the childrenâs custody.
âBesides,â Qin Shao looked at Su Mei coldly: âIt seems that Mrs. Li still doesnât quite understand that Xiaobei and Xiaobao are Qin Groupâs heirs. With just the shares in their hands, they have more than enough to buy 100 Li familyâs industries.â
âSo, put away your alms. My children donât need it.â
If Su Mei found the children and took them to live with her when they still lived badly in the countryside, Mr. Qin has nothing to say. But now, one of the children was Qin familyâs princess, and the other was Qin Groupâs crown prince. Did they still need to go to Li family to live under someone elseâs alms?
Hearing Mr. Qinâs words, Su Meiâs face turned pale: Although the remark was straightforward and impolite, it was right.
With the childrenâs current status and family background, they didnât need sympathy or charity from anyone. Whatâs more, Mr. Qin was a good father. From what she heard via Li Manâer about Su Bei and Su Xiaobaoâs news at school, Su Mei knew how good the twinsâ life was. They obviously didnât need her to live well and happily.
âIâm sorry. Itâs my lack of consideration.â Su Mei whispered.
âCan I meet them?â She tried to ask. If she could take a glance at the children, the knot in her heart would also be resolved.
âNo, for their sake, I wonât let you meet them.â And my children donât want to see you either.
There was a secret triumph in Mr. Qinâs eyes: Xiaobei and Xiaobao obviously much closer to their father than theirâ mother.â When they left the countryside, they came to find him instead of Su Mei.
Qin Shao was about to call an assistant to send the guest off. But Su Mei looked hesitated, and finally told Qin Shao the other thing that she has long buried in her memory: âSong Yancheng has taken human lives before.â
Because Song Yancheng wanted to use Su Meiâs children to threaten Qin Shao, he didnât drive Su Mei away on his wedding day. He coaxed Su Mei and left her behind in a temporary place. It was there when Su Mei accidentally overheard Song Yanchengâs conversation with another man she didnât recognize.
Su Mei: âI donât know who the other person was. But he seemed to be dangerous. They were talking about a plan to create a car accident and kill a Jihua Internationalâs shareholder. Another senior executive was forced to death by creditor. This was also premeditated by themâŠâ
The conversation Su Mei accidentally overheard was more than shocking. Although she had fought with Lin You fiercely and did many underhanded tricks, at most she only bought water army to discredit her rival. Murder, this kind of heavy crime, was completely beyond her cognition.
At that moment, Su Mei finally realized: Song Yancheng, the man she liked, the gentle and warm actor admired by many, was actually a devil in human skin.
This was the biggest reason for Su Meiâs hasty escape.
Su Mei told Qin Shao some of the details she heard at that time: âI donât know if this info is useful to you or not. Song Yancheng should also be targeting you. If possible, I hope you donât let him go. â
Qin Shao looked at Su Mei lightly. For a moment, he didnât say anything.
Although Su Mei gave him the information to ensure her own safety, there was no doubt that her statement was useful. When the shareholder and senior executive had an accident, their death greatly affected Jihua International. Qin Shao also suspected that the so-called accidents were actually by human design. Unfortunately, the clues he found were limited, plus Qin Jinguo and Chen Xueyanâs intentional interception, he could only leave the matter behind.
Now, by following the clues provided by Su Mei, it would be enough for him to send Song Yancheng to prison.
Qin Shao: âAs before, Qin Group will exchange the info you give with one favor.â
Of course, Su Mei knew that the âbeforeâ Mr. Qin said referred to the video that her husband handed over. It was precisely because of Qin Groupâs favor that their companyâs jewelry business was able to gain a foothold in the local market so quickly.
Su Mei did not dare to ask for anything: âPreviously, Mr. Qin helped our family a lot. This time I donât need it. I just want to tell you what I know.â
âI have my principles, you can mention any favor. Of course, except for my childrenâs custody.â
I really dislike this Su Mei. Remember the novel plot: when the children need help the most, she didnât do anything. Now that they are perfectly well, she wants to take them away, and just for the reason of easing her consience.
Moreover, it actually isnât hard for Su Mei to help the novel!twins either. They can live by themselves. A bit financial help is all they need, and it can be done anonymously. As for the reason of fearing Song Yancheng? Thatâs happen decade ago, does she truly believed that Song Yancheng still searching for her or her children?
If she truly traumatized by Song Yancheng, she wonât return to the same city at Song family or enroll her daughter to the same school as Song Xinyi. If she is really afraid, she will at least try to find information about Song family prior to her return, so she can avoid them.
I cannot help but think that the real reason she wants to âmake it upâ to the twins is because they are now Qinâs heirs. Even if she isnât eyeing Qin familyâs power, she is probably afraid of revenge. If a mother abandoned her children, forming a new family, and lives happily, it wonât be strange for the abandoned chilren to resent her. Is she afraid that the twins will do something to Li family or Li Manâer? Or is it just like the narrative says, that Su Mei only want to ease her guilt? Who knows.
So sorry for the delay T_T. I have scheduled this post correctly, but for some reason, it wasnât posted in time. And I also didnât check the site yesterday so only noticed nowâŠ.. this week really a bad week for productivity. Iâm going to fix THDP now, including the supposed-to-be-released-in-Tuesday chapter, but GNU will be delayed. And donation button is temporarily closed, Iâll probably open it back again in 1-2 weeks. See you later!
