Obsessive Love, The Possessive Real Young Lady - Chapter 32
The gloomy weather, the humid air, and the “pitter-patter” sound of rainwater flowing down the roof tiles.
The three elements together created a very harmonious and peaceful rainy morning scene.
Inside the room, two women with completely different facial features, yet both possessing breathtaking beauty, should have made up a captivating picture of loveliness when placed together. However, in this moment, they did not appear so harmonious.
In fact, the air temperature flowing between them was much higher than the surroundings.
Shen Jiayan, whose chin was being held, kept her back perfectly straight, showing absolutely no sign of yielding. Her pair of dark, deep eyes stared fixedly at Su Sui in front of her.
She understood clearly that the other person appeared sickly and fragile, gentle as jade, but was actually a vicious beautiful snake. One small mistake, and she would be bitten to death.
She understood even more clearly that if she were to slap this fierce beautiful snake hard across the face, the other party would immediately retract her sharp fangs and become meek.
But she simply did not want to do that.
Firstly, she absolutely did not want to grant Su Sui’s wish and let her succeed.
Secondly, she might have used inhumane methods to tame Su Sui before, so she could still achieve it with a different method now.
Facing Su Sui, who was looking down with eyes full of provocation, Shen Jiayan smiled.
Her smile was bright and unrestrained.
The more brilliantly she smiled, the sharper Su Sui’s gaze became. However, behind this sharpness, there was a panic known only to Su Sui herself.
She did not want to be separated from Shen Jiayan, nor did she want to be disliked by Shen Jiayan. Even less did she want to use this method to coerce Shen Jiayan into submission, let alone use the most hurtful excuse.
The excuse that she owed her!
Shen Jiayan never owed her anything!
Never!
On the contrary, if Shen Jiayan had not appeared in her tragic childhood, she would have already died that dark night. In her view, Shen Jiayan’s bullying or humiliation of her was another form of favoritism.
And now, she just wanted to take back the share of favoritism that belonged to her from Shen Jiayan.
What was so funny about that!
Shen Jiayan, you are not allowed to laugh!
The force in Su Sui’s hand grew heavier, making Shen Jiayan feel a dull ache.
However, even feeling the pain, Shen Jiayan still laughed wildly, laughed arrogantly, as if mocking Su Sui’s foolish ignorance.
As Shen Jiayan’s bell like laughter deepened, the taut string in Su Sui’s mind completely snapped.
Her eyes instantly darkened, gazing at Shen Jiayan with a gloomy intensity. That look seemed poisoned, chilling and horrifying.
“What are you laughing at? What exactly are you laughing at?!”
“What am I laughing at?” Shen Jiayan drew back her smile, and with a somewhat mischievous expression, beckoned Su Sui closer with her finger. “Come closer, I’ll tell you.”
But when Su Sui really let go and leaned in, Shen Jiayan suddenly spun around, twisted Su Sui’s arm, and pinned her against the wall.
“Shen Jiayan!” Su Sui’s tone suddenly rose, her breathing became slightly rapid, her eyes reddening, as if anger was about to erupt at any moment.
“You’re still too green to fight with me!” Shen Jiayan’s lips curled into a scornful smile, and she shouted loudly to Gao Wei, “Stop eavesdropping, bring the dog leash!”
As soon as her words fell, Gao Wei, who was hiding and listening at the door, nearly stumbled and fell.
“O… Okay. Coming right away.” she stammered in response, rummaging through a cabinet and pulling out a brand new dog leash before exiting the room.
Shen Jiayan held the woman she had picked up tightly against the wall, rendering her unable to move.
And the look the woman gave her was as if she wished she could devour her alive.
Terrifying, truly terrifyingly so.
“What are you standing there for? Come and help,” Shen Jiayan urged.
“Oh, oh, coming… coming.” Gao Wei slowly stepped forward, holding the dog leash and hesitating, “Sister, isn’t this a bit much? After all, she’s a person too…”
“Is she a person?” Shen Jiayan glanced at the furious Su Sui. “Doesn’t look like it. Isn’t this the wild wolf cub you picked up outside?”
Hearing this, it pierced Su Sui’s sensitive heart even more, as Shen Jiayan was the one who told her to become a wolf that bites!
“Shen Jiayan!”
Su Sui roared, but before she could utter the next word, Shen Jiayan stuffed a small ball of catnip into her mouth.
“Much quieter now,” Shen Jiayan said, while reaching for the dog leash from the stunned Gao Wei.
“Su Sui, this is the first lesson I’m teaching you: being right doesn’t mean you have to shout loud. Don’t yell in the future, got it?”
But after signaling several times, Gao Wei still didn’t hand over the leash.
“Hey, hurry up,” Shen Jiayan frowned and urged.
Gao Wei hesitated, “Um, Sister, really…”
Shen Jiayan tutted, interrupting her, “This is the one who set fire to the pub last night.”
The moment she finished speaking, Gao Wei darted forward in one swift move, grabbed the dog leash, and began wrapping it around Su Sui, asking as she did so, “Sister, am I tying this correctly? She shouldn’t be able to break free and set our house on fire too, right?”
As she spoke, she had already circled Su Sui three times, securing her firmly.
Gao Wei tugged the chain, confirming it was tight enough, then clapped her hands with satisfaction. “Sister, it’s done. It’s tied very securely.”
Shen Jiayan hummed in response, took the leash from Gao Wei’s hand, dragged Su Sui next to the cattery, and forcibly made her sit on the ground. “I should have hung you up and whipped you soundly back then, to see if you’d dare touch me again!”
Saying that, she completely ignored the fury in Su Sui’s eyes, casually pulling a piece of clothing to cover those long, straight legs.
Gao Wei’s eyes shifted back and forth between the two women. When she was eavesdropping behind the door just now, she learned that this crazy woman was called Su Sui. She had heard this name countless times in Shen Jiayan’s sleep talking.
It made her often wonder.
What kind of person was it that made Shen Jiayan remember her so persistently, even thinking of her in her dreams?
And she was very curious what kind of feelings Shen Jiayan held for Su Sui?
Was it hatred? Was it love?
But now, it didn’t seem like either. Instead, it looked like something mixed between the two, something she didn’t understand yet.
After all, in the summer she turned 18, the doctor told her that her life had officially entered a countdown.
That was also the year her longing for the future, for love, for all beautiful things, was brutally torn apart.
From then on, her goal was singular: “to live.”
In order to live, she gave up the national college entrance examination and started working early to earn money for her medical expenses.
In order to live, she dared not yearn for the love that was expected at her age, even avoiding contact with others. Therefore, she even left the Dean mother whom she loved, and the children from the orphanage.
The reason was simple: once a person forms an emotional bond, they become more attached to the world. She didn’t want to have too many ties and attachments when the day of her departure came, as that would only bring great pain. Nor did she want the people she valued to see her as she passed away, becoming a shadow in their lives.
If it weren’t for the 100,000 yuan, she would never have actively approached Shen Jiayan and formed such a deep bond with her.
Gao Wei looked at the two of them, feeling that her heart and mind were a complete mess.
Shen Jiayan stood up and patted the spacing out Gao Wei, “What are you thinking about?”
Gao Wei snapped back to reality and casually asked, “This person is so dangerous. Sister, how did you provoke her?”
Shen Jiayan stared at her for a long time, finally replying faintly, “It’s not provocation; it’s a debt.”
A debt she could never repay.
Fu Jing was sentenced for hiring someone to commit murder.
And today was the day of her release from prison. Shen Shihao had been waiting outside the prison gates early. Now, he had become the Acting Chairman of the Shen Group, and the car he drove was the most luxurious and expensive sports coupe.
However, while he was elevating his status with money and luxury cars, the old men on the board of directors still treated him, the Acting Chairman, as air. Instead, they were extremely respectful to that girl, Su Sui.
Just recently, while Su Sui was away, he wanted to secure a new project. Other than a relatively large initial investment, it had no other flaws. But when those old fogeys heard about it, they convened an emergency board meeting overnight and scolded him thoroughly.
No matter how he presented data or facts, the old men had only one response: “We need Chairman Su to make the decision.”
The more Shen Shihao thought about it, the more stifled he felt, secretly cursing in his heart, “Hmph, wait until I completely take over the Shen Group, I will definitely make these old geezers suffer!”
Shen Shihao glared hatefully at the prison gate. After waiting for a long time, as the massive iron gate opened, he finally saw a figure slowly walk out.
He quickly got out of the car to greet her, “Mom.”
Fu Jing glanced at her well dressed son, her look seemingly conveying, “You idiot.”
“Mom, shall I drive you home?” Shen Shihao offered enthusiastically.
“No need,” Fu Jing’s tone was indifferent, carrying an undisguised fatigue.
Shen Shihao immediately changed his strategy, “Mom, then I’ll have someone send a car to take you back to rest.”
“Unnecessary,” Fu Jing’s tone grew more distant, marked by a bone deep coldness. “I am an ex-convict just released from prison. How dare I trouble Chairman Shen to personally attend to me.”
Hearing this, Shen Shihao’s face darkened slightly, but he maintained his smile, “Mom, I was just speaking out of anger. Please be magnanimous and don’t hold it against your son, okay?”
Fu Jing glanced at Shen Shihao and sneered, “Heh, words spoken in anger? The look in your eyes and the words you said to me the day the police took me away, I remember them clearly. How could they just be words spoken in anger?”
“Mom, I…” He opened his mouth, looking on the verge of tears, yet unable to say anything. “Mom, I…” He opened his mouth, looking on the verge of tears, yet unable to say anything.
“Mom… it was my fault, I was muddle-headed…”
“A mother who hired someone to kill is hindering your prospects and making it hard for you to hold your head up in front of your friends. Weren’t those your words?”
Fu Jing’s words instantly silenced Shen Shihao, his face flushing deeply.
This expression, however, softened Fu Jing’s heart a little. After all, he was flesh and blood from her, she couldn’t really stay angry with her own son forever.
“Enough, a 30 year old man. Can you have some backbone.”
Hearing this, Shen Shihao breathed a sigh of relief and quickly helped Fu Jing into the car.
After they both fastened their seatbelts and settled in, Shen Shihao cleared his throat and said somewhat awkwardly, “Mom, do you have a way to deal with that girl, Su Sui?”
