The name Su Yi, Su Zimo still had some impression of it.
Since his father Su Gan revealed his actual relationship with his goddaughters, Su Hewen specifically revealed some information to Su Zimo about his sisters with no blood relationship. The information didnât violate their privacy, but through the photos and general locations of his sisters, Su Zimo remembered that Su Yi was the daughter of the flower tea shop next to where his shop was located.
So when he heard the name Su Yi, what came to mind was the face of the humble, jade-like daughter who wasnât extraordinary but had a good temperament.
Itâs just that when Su Zimo saw Miss Su Yi who was apparently Su Zixiangâs girlfriend, he found that the face was completely different from what he imagined. Instead, it looked⊠somewhat like himself?
Su Zimo was very aware of his appearance. Generally speaking, someone who looks like him wouldnât be too bad. The appearance of Miss Su Yi was indeed gorgeous, and she also used many makeup techniques that Su Zimo couldnât. She was glowing as if it were an eye-catching lightbulb.
Beauty was beauty, but this gave him a bad feeling, as if Miss Su Yiâs face was slightly unnatural.
And⊠this Miss Su Yi did her makeup very beautifully, so most people would feel at first glance that she was very mature and confident.
But judging from the conversation between Miss Su Yi and Su Gan, this wasnât the case.
She seemed nervous⊠When Miss Su Yi stood in front of Su Zimoâs father, Su Gan, she acted like⊠a frightened little rabbit. After gritting her teeth, her expression relaxed, but she still spoke softly and gently. It should have been difficult for normal people to hear what she was saying.
Miss Su Yiâs hands were even twisting together tightly, and the corners of her mouth were very restrained. She opened her perfectly curved lips to her small cherry mouth.
Su Zimo admits that his thoughts were a bit too dramatic. Even if the other party was somewhat unnatural, she was still pretty enough on the surface to attract everyoneâs attention.
But he inexplicably had a sense of repulsion toward this Miss Su Yi.
[That woman. Sheâs wearing a mask like a clown.]
This sentence wasnât spoken by Su Zimo, but from the ghost umbrella standing behind him at that moment.
âYou shouldnât try to judge a person by their appearance.â Su Zimo shook his head and waved off the inexplicable displeasure and sense of repulsion in his heart, then walked downstairs with a smile on his face and looked at the tall, handsome man standing next to Miss Su Yi.
Su Zimoâs second uncle, Su Duan, looked ordinary. This may be because Su Zimoâs grandmother, who had passed away before he could see her, wasnât the kind of beauty that made people awed at first glance. Of course, the love story between his amazing grandmother and Grandpa Su was one that Su Zimo had heard from childhood. His two grandparents had always been very affectionate.
But the second child of the Su family was very concerned about that matter. Because Su Duan looked ordinary and had a physique that easily gained weight, he was always considered to be unlike the Su family by bored outsiders. Those kind of remarks often make Grandpa Su angry. After all, what his grandfather hated the most was the kind of people who easily judged others based on appearance.
That was one of the first lessons from Grandpa Su to Su Zimo during his childhood, so after Su Zimo recognized that he had judged Miss Su Yiâs appearance earlier, he felt that he was wrong.
But even if his grandfather had always protected Su Duan in that regard, the second child of the Su family couldnât help but care about those remarks. In order to prevent his children from being hurt by such remarks, he even found a wife who was of a different background than the Su family but became well-known in socialite circles by virtue of her appearance who also successfully gave birth to a handsome son. He was as tall as his wife who cared nothing for her family.
Su Zixiang was Su Duanâs most gratifying thing. Although he wasnât as handsome as Master Su, he was at least taller than Master Su, and his current academic achievements were much better than Su Zimoâs, who hadnât yet finished high school.
Su Duan was always accustomed to paying attention to unimportant things on the surface, but ignored important things, like a father raising his own children.
While the handsome Su Zixiang was polite to his uncle Su Gan, his eyes hardly fell on his father.
Since childhood, the reason why Su Zixiang and his third uncle Su Kun got so close was because Su Duan never felt anything like the word âfather.â
More seriously, when Su Zixiang stayed in his own home, he didnât feel anything like âhome.â
His mother always attended various banquets and glamorous galas. She yearned for freedom and didnât want her family to be a burden for her, nor did she want others to see her in attendance with such an old son. So when Su Zixiang went off to school, his mother hadnât yet returned from an all-night dance party. While he was still at school, his mother went to another banquet.
As for his father, Su Zixiang could barely communicate with Su Duan. He almost memorized everything that Su Duan said to him! Those words were nothing more thanâ
âLook at Master Suâs Zimo. If he can please that old man, why canât you?â
âLook at Master Suâs Zimo. What kind of competitions have you participated in and won? What use is it for you to study all the time?â
âLook at Master Suâs ZimoâŠâ
Su Zixiang also wanted to get closer to his grandfather. Su Zixiang tried his best to participate in competitions. If Su Zimo did something amazing, he followed suit. When Su Zimo participated in the 13th competition, he participated in the 14th competition. He would do the same thing and get the same reward.
Su Zixiang originally thought that would make his father happy. He didnât expect that his father would shame him by directly scolding him, trying to do things by following suit!
Su Zixiang never felt that he was any weaker than Su Zimo. Sometimes he scored higher than Su Zimo in those competitions, but in the eyes of his father Su Duan, he was far inferior to Su Zimo!
Only his third uncle Su Kun would congratulate him after the competitions. Only Third Uncle would say that he was better than Su Zimo. Only Third Uncle thought that Su Zixiang should be enjoying what Su Zimo had now. Only Third Uncle thought that he could take what belonged to him from Su Zimo.
But when that uncle was attending the Su family dinner⊠he succumbed to a disease he had never heard of before, and he immediately became a vegetable?
Su Zixiang felt that Third Uncleâs condition must have something to do with his family or Su Zimo, so as soon as the heard that Third Uncle had an accident, he finished up his affairs overseas as quickly as possible and returned.
Of course, it wasnât correct to say that Su Zixiang came back entirely for his Third Uncleâs affairs, otherwise he wouldnât have found a girlfriend before returning to Su manor. The main reason for his return was that after being comatose for four years, Su Zimo suddenly woke up and declared war.
After four years, Su Zixiang thought he was at the top of a place that Su Zimo couldnât reach. Even if Su Zimo was now the head of the Su family, he had no title. No matter how smart he was, he couldnât change the fact that he never finished high school.
Under the management of such a head, Su Zixiang was confident that he could take back the Su family.
Itâs just that for some reason, Su Zixiang really didnât value the Su family business. After all, the world has turned upside down. Not everyone needed money to be at the top of the world. For example, Su Zixiang was also an extremely experienced trainer who had experienced 19 nightmare worlds.
The Su family was nothing more than that.
Su Zixiang really didnât like those ordinary people who didnât have any ghost tools. Even his biological father Su Duan didnât want to talk to him or listen to him.
But even is Su Zixiang had stuffed down the idea of stealing the Su family, Su Zixiang still regarded Su Zimo as the cause of his sad childhood. No matter what, Su Zimo, the Su family head, must meet his end.
Su Yi was a weapon in Su Zixiangâs hands.
Meeting Su Yi was just a coincidence. This woman wasnât a trainer. She shouldnât even reach Su Zixiangâs eyes at all. However, when he was at a bar with a fellow veteran recounting the past, he saw this girl who looked a lot like the Su Zimo of his memories.
After a few glasses of wine, Su Zixiang learned a big secret. This woman⊠turned out to be the illegitimate daughter of his uncle Su Gan!
Su Zixiang didnât question it at all. He didnât even verify it because he was confident in his assumption.
After all, in Su Zixiangâs view, Su Yiâs face was the best evidence.
If she wasnât Su Ganâs illegitimate daughter, how could she look like Su Zimo?
Of course, that wasnât the only reason he made Su Yi his girlfriend. Excluding those special factors, Su Zixiang alone overwhelmed that woman Su Yi in bed. Looking at that face with its shy expression, seeing her face stained with love on the bed, a morbid sense of satisfaction emerged in Su Zixiangâs heart.
As for the possible blood relationship between him and Su Yi? Su Zixiang dismissed it. After all, in this ghost-ridden world, that kind of thing couldnât hold him back. It even made himâŠ
In simple terms, he was abnormal, transformed.
After hearing footsteps of someone coming downstairs, Su Zixiang looked up and saw Su Zimo was walking down.
After seeing the real Su Zimoâs face four years later, Su Zixiang was still stunned.
He had always thought that Su Yi and Su Zimo looked alike, but after seeing Su Zimoâs face, how could Su Zixiang actually think that woman could compare to his cousin?
His face was clearly unmodified, but the eyes behind the thin-framed glasses with silver chains only glanced at him slightly, and Su Zixiang felt his heart beating fast.
At the moment, he didnât feel that he was a high-achieving student from abroad, nor was he a veteran. He was a loser like his father Su Duan who was nothing compared to Su Zimo.
Even Su Yi, who was drowned in all kinds of luxury cosmetics, became inferior to Su Zixiangâs eyes.
âLong time no see, Zixiang.â
Compared to Su Zixiangâs complicated mentality, Su Zimo actually had no bad feelings about this cousin. After all, when he was confined in the manor by his grandfather when he was a child, the only contact with his peers Su Zimo had was this cousin.
Although his cousin always ignored him, occasionally seeing people his age still pleased Su Zimo, that is, pleasing to his eyes.
With only a little bit of exaggeration, if Su Zixiang was really an excellent talented person that he could trust with all of his heart, Su Zimo wouldnât even object to him managing the Su family business.
But Su Zimo felt strange. From the moment he went downstairs to his family sitting around the long dining table, the cousin who hadnât seen him in so long kept staring at his face. He didnât move his eyes, didnât say hello or greet him. He didnât respond to anything Su Zimo said, just stared at him like a fool. It made Ghost Umbrella beside him want to open his umbrella to cover up his face.
There was also that woman called Su Yi. After Su Zimo went downstairs and greeted her face to face, she looked at him as if she saw a ghost. The expression was even uglier than Su Zixiangâs. When the two stood together, they were very alike.
Su Zimo could clearly feel that Su Yi was frightened when she first saw him. He didnât know if she was surprised that there were people in this world that looked so similar to her, but she was scared either way.
After she touched the sleeves of her dress, she calmed down again. She shifted her gaze away from Su Zimo, then moved closer to Su Zixiang, lowering her head and looking even more like a humble, jade-like daughter.
After Su Zixiang took her into the dining room, Su Yi cahnged⊠Greedy eyes looked at the various accessories in the main hall of Su Manor, and she looked at Su Gan from time to time with her hands clenched into fists, as if she was nervous.
This complicated behavior made Su Zimo think that Miss Su was even weirder than Su Zimo.
âIâm not sure how Miss Su met my familyâs Zixiang?â Su Duan didnât think the atmosphere at the long table was strange, but he was displeased because Su Zixiang brought back a woman without his permission.
Although Su Zixiang didnât consider Su Duan his father, Su Duan still honestly valued the superiority that Su Zixiang brought him. He didnât think this simple woman was worthy of his excellent son.
Whatâs worse was that the woman looked a lot like Su Zimo!
Was his sonâs sense of aesthetics really okay?
Su Duan was worried about that.
Before Su Yi could speak, Su Zixiang next to her finally recovered. He turned his gaze away from Su Zimoâs face, barely smiled, and introduced her to everyone: âXiao Yu is a very special woman. Her physique is completely different from ordinary people.â
Since he was no longer looking at Su Zimo, Su Zixiang felt a sense of superiority saying that.
Thatâs right. Another special reason Su Zixiang fell in love with Su Yi was because, although she wasnât a trainer, she had different characteristics than normal people.
Su Zimo looked at Su Yi, but he couldnât find any special physique.
âXiao Yi has a physique that attracts ghosts easily.â Su Zixiang smiled slightly. âI think everyone knows about the nightmare world? Xiao Yi isnât a trainer. Her physique is more similar to pure yin physiques that can only be seen in old movies. Itâs very special anyway.â
âThereâs no such thing as a pure yin physique. Itâs just made up in movies.â Su Yi lowered her head shyly.
âItâs just an analogy.â Su Zixiang usually felt like Su Yi was an innocent young woman, but today it was like he was watching a ghost. When he saw his girlfriend being shy, goosebumps appeared on his body, and he could only try to hide it. âWhen I first saw Xiao Yi, she was followed by many ghosts that looked particularly cruel, but she wasnât a trainer and had no yin yang eyes, so she didnât notice at all.â
âBecause I had already become a trainer while I was abroad, I used ghost tools to help Xiao Yi get rid of all the ghosts around her.â Su Zixiang tried to make his expression appear affectionate. âAt the time, I thought she must be very special for such an innocent young woman to be chased by ghosts, and she was a even a rare beauty upon closer inspection.â
Su Yi smiled shyly again.
âItâs a pity that I may not be able to continue to associate with Xiao Yi in the future.â Su Zixiang sighed dramatically. âI never thought that Xiao Yi would be your daughter.â
âWhat? Ah? Ah??â Su Gan, who was drinking the pre-dinner wine, was taken aback, and tilted his head dazedly.
Miss Su Yi clenched her fists sitting next to Su Zixiang, and her body began trembling with nervousness. While trying to restrain herself, Su Yi quietly took out a lipstick from her pocket.
If Su Zimo could see the lipstick, he would definitely remember that he had seen that lipstick on a female customer who strayed into the store and didnât buy anything.
It was a lipstick that could grant a wish as long as it was applied to the lips.
Granting a wish like that seemed very simple, but really, as long as the holder makes a wish, she would attract malicious spirits. Those ghosts wouldnât harm the holderâs life for a while, but when they accumulate to a certain point, when the holderâs wishes increase more and more, or when one is beyond the lipstickâs power toleranceâŠ
At that point, it would be the end for the lipstickâs holder.
