Tycoon's Eye Candy Is Actually a Bigshot-Chapter 65 - Su He’s Battlefield

An Mi turned a deaf ear.

Her response to Lin Yue was a loud “bang” as the door was closed.

After returning to her room, An Mi locked the door from inside.

Nobody in the An Family knew about what had happened to An Mi outside today.

And the news that had just broken out was also suppressed by the An Family.

An Mi was restless and worried all day, really not in the mood to deal with her mom’s concern.

On the other side.

Su He was on her way back to Moon Gift Villa.

Her phone, placed aside, started to ring.

She glanced at the caller ID, it was Jiang Yan.

She hesitated for a few seconds but still answered.

She put on her Bluetooth headset and a man’s deep and magnetic voice came through, “Where are you?

Why aren’t you home yet?”

It was already past eight, and he had been home since seven.

Normally, she would be home by this time, but he had waited and still had not seen her.

Worried that something had happened to her, he made this call.

Hearing this, Su He turned the steering wheel to take a corner and said, “What, is President Jiang checking in on me?

Worried that I’ll take all your fortune and run away?”

Jiang Yan was briefly stunned, then laughed, “Even if you were to run away, you’d have to take me with you, don’t you?

I belong to you too.

I’m worth more than all the money you hold in your hands.

Not only that, but there are things money can’t give you that I can, and I can make your life sweet and happy.

You’ve experienced it yourself, you must know?”

He deliberately slowed his speech and lowered his tone with the last sentence.

Su He: “…”

She really didn’t want to understand what he was saying, but she immediately did.

“What do you want?” she asked dispassionately.

She realized that sometimes Jiang Yan could be so shamelessly thick-skinned that she couldn’t even take it.

And surely he couldn’t really just be calling her simply to ask why she wasn’t home yet?

“I just wanted to ask when you’ll be back.

It’s boring eating alone at home.”

His deep voice entered her eardrum, like a feather, making her heart itch.

Su He said bluntly, “If you’re bored eating alone, have Uncle Zhong keep you company, or have Jiang Feng and Jiang Qi, the two brothers, accompany you.”

“Only you truly understand me.”

Su He: “…”

This was ridiculous.

…

Listening to the “beep beep beep…” on the phone, Jiang Yan chuckled.

This girl really hangs up on him at the slightest provocation.

After returning to Moon Gift Villa, it was nearly nine o’clock.

As she walked into the living room, Jiang Yan came up to meet her.

“Go change your clothes then come down for dinner.”

Su He dodged his gaze, replied indifferently with a “hmm,” and then passed by him to go upstairs.

During their meal, Uncle Zhong walked in with a somewhat solemn expression.

Normally, unless there was something important, Uncle Zhong wouldn’t interrupt their meal.

Uncle Zhong said, “Young Madam, Master, someone is looking for you outside.”

Su He: “?”

“For me or for him?” she asked.

Uncle Zhong looked at Jiang Yan: “For Master.”

Upon hearing this, Su He uttered, “Oh,” and continued eating her meal.

A look of ‘if they’re not here for her, it’s none of her business’ crossed her face, and she focused on filling her stomach—that was the important task at hand.

Jiang Yan furrowed his brows; not many people would come looking for him at Moon Gift Villa at this hour.

It definitely wasn’t Gu Beiyan and his group; if it were them, they would’ve come in directly without needing Uncle Zhong to notify him.

“Who is it?”

The man asked in a deep voice.

The hesitation in Uncle Zhong’s expression piqued the curiosity of the couple.

While continuing to eat, Su He glanced sidelong at Uncle Zhong, and spoke with pure curiosity, “Just say it, Uncle Zhong.

He can’t eat you.”

Uncle Zhong thought to himself that Master really might eat him.

But it couldn’t be helped; he had to face it eventually.

“Reporting to Master, Mrs.

Lou and Miss Tang have arrived,” Uncle Zhong said, trembling with apprehension.

Instantly, the dining room felt like it had been covered with a layer of frost, leaving Su He involuntarily shivering.

Jiang Yan’s mother and Tang Sirou?

The next second, a cold voice resonated throughout the dining room: “Kick them out!”

Su He was somewhat stunned, her hand pausing in midair as she lifted her rice.

She raised her eyebrows, glancing at the man opposite her.

Had she heard wrong?

He actually told his own mother to leave?

She had found it odd when they ran into each other at the mall that day.

Jiang Yan’s hatred for Lou Ruozhi was intense, while Jiang You seemed indifferent.

She was quite curious as to why her mother-in-law would remarry her then nominal brother.

The current head of the Lou Family, Lou Guohui, was not of their bloodline but was an adopted son from the previous head.

Who would have thought that after her father-in-law’s death, Lou Ruozhi would remarry Lou Guohui?

Whatever transpired between them remained unknown to her.

What mattered was that Lou Ruozhi had abandoned her children for Lou Guohui.

Thinking of this, Su He felt Jiang Yan’s hatred towards Lou Ruozhi might be justified.

But her intuition told her there must be other reasons for Jiang Yan’s disdain.

Outside the gates of Moon Gift Villa.

“Auntie, Mr.

Yan won’t refuse to see us, right?” Tang Sirou, holding onto Lou Ruozhi’s hand, spoke with a hint of dejection.

“Don’t worry, it’s nothing.

I’ll plead on your behalf with Ah Yan today and have him remove that notice,” Lou Ruozhi said with a gentle smile, patting her hand to comfort her.

Upon hearing this, Tang Sirou’s face lit up with gratitude and emotion, “Thank you, auntie.”

Lou Ruozhi replied, “Silly child, there’s no need to thank me.

I’ve watched you grow up, and I’ve always considered you as my own.”

Tang Sirou always felt that her biggest chip in marrying Jiang Yan was Lou Ruozhi.

Today, she was labeled a ‘thrice-married woman’ and went viral on the hot search.

Her work team had managed to suppress the trending topic, but the internet was still flooded with negative comments about her.

Moreover, due to today’s events, she had lost several endorsements.

Although she was an artist under Jiang Media, the brands were not foolish—poor conduct of an artist could directly harm their reputation and sales.

Not only were her endorsements affected, but companies of the Tang and Lin Families were impacted too.

Unable to reach Jiang Yan, she had no choice but to contact Lou Ruozhi.

Soon after, the figure of Uncle Zhong appeared.

Coming up to the two women, Uncle Zhong announced, “Mrs.

Lou, Miss Tang, Master has said it’s late and he will not see anyone.”

Lou Ruozhi and Tang Sirou were taken aback.

Lou Ruozhi couldn’t believe it, “Old Zhong, are these really Ah Yan’s words?”

Uncle Zhong knew these were not the ones spoken; he had modified them a bit so they wouldn’t sound as harsh.

He sighed and nodded, “You both should head back, it’s getting late.”

Yet Tang Sirou asked, “Uncle Zhong, are these really Mr.

Yan’s sentiments?

Or are they Miss Su’s?”

Today, she had found out that Su He had moved into Moon Gift Villa.

She was quite displeased, but she dared not show it too obviously.

Hearing her question, Uncle Zhong’s eyes sharpened as he looked at her; he clearly understood what she was implying.

Feeling a bit guilty, Tang Sirou lowered her head slightly and played the part of the demure woman.

“Auntie, Uncle Zhong, please don’t misunderstand.

I’m not speaking ill of Miss Su, it’s just that auntie is, after all, Mr.

Yan’s mother, and he has always held the utmost respect for his elders.

I just thought he wouldn’t actually turn his mother away, so I…” She hesitated, trailing off mid-sentence.

Hearing Tang Sirou’s words, Lou Ruozhi thought there might be some truth to them.

Even if her son hated her, she couldn’t just be barred from the front gate.

She knew her son.

“Uncle Zhong, tell me the truth, this isn’t Jiang Yan’s order, right?”

Now, Ruozi was even less fond of Su He.

She felt that Su He was trying to drive a wedge between her and Jiang Yan’s mother-son relationship.

Uncle Zhong patiently said, “This is indeed the Master’s order.”

Then, he looked toward Tang Sirou to explain, “Miss Tang, our Master certainly respects his elders, but he does discriminate against certain people, and, Miss Tang, what you may not know is that before our Young Madam was married to our Master, the Master had already commanded that in any of his places—”

Uncle Zhong looked steadily at Ruozi, “Mrs.

Lou is not allowed to step inside, especially the house.”

“Mrs.

Lou, have you forgotten what the Master said back then?” Uncle Zhong questioned her in return.

“Boom!”

Ruozi’s head exploded for a moment, and her steps faltered.

Just now, she truly forgot Jiang Yan’s prior warning.

Tang Sirou steadied her just in time.

She knew nothing of these matters.

Although she had been at Jiang Yan’s side for so long, there were some things and some of Jiang Yan’s territory she had never touched.

Take, for example, Moon Gift Villa in front of her, it was his private estate, and she had never entered it before.

“Auntie, Mr.

Yan probably really isn’t able to see us right now.

Let’s not bother Mr.

Yan and Miss Su.

It’s just a minor grievance for me, nothing serious, let’s go back.”

Tang Sirou hesitated for a moment, then decided to back off in order to advance but deliberately mentioned Su He.

Seeing her so sensible and understanding, Ruozi felt even guiltier and more sympathetic toward her.

“No, I must see Jiang Yan tonight, to solve this problem for you.” Ruozi said firmly.

She turned her head to face the housekeeper Uncle Zhong; her expression suddenly became severe, and she no longer cared about Jiang Yan’s previous warning.

“Uncle Zhong, I have to see Jiang Yan tonight no matter what,” she said, “Step aside, if he won’t see me, then I’ll just go in myself.”

Uncle Zhong furrowed his brow and subconsciously reached out to block her.

But Ruozi glared at him; her presence was strong, and with her unique status,

Uncle Zhong truly didn’t dare stop her, and the bodyguards beside him even less so.

Ruozi shook off Tang Sirou, who was holding her arm, brushed past Uncle Zhong, and walked straight in.

“Auntie, please calm down.” Tang Sirou immediately followed, trying to soothe her.

As the two walked past the front yard and were about to approach the steps leading to the main hall, a slender figure appeared before them.

Su He stood on the steps with her arms crossed.

Ruozi and Tang Sirou had to stop.

She blinked at the two and grinned, “In this festive evening, I wonder what brings you two to trespass on my property?”

Ruozi squinted slightly at her, “Are you Su He?”

Su He was dressed in a white casual home outfit, her hair casually pinned up with a hairpin, with a few loose strands framing her forehead.

Different from the day she was seen in the shopping mall.

At this moment, she exuded a touch more humanity.

“Yes, Mrs.

Lou,” Su He replied straightforwardly.

Yet, this address “Mrs.

Lou” left Ruozi very dissatisfied, causing her to frown.

“Su He, do you know who I am?” Ruozi asked her with a somewhat unfriendly tone.

Su He, of course, knew why she was asked this question – because Ruozi was not happy with her form of address.

But she deliberately pretended not to know anyway; after all, the lord inside said he would cover for her if anything happened.

Su He remained poised, speaking calmly, “I know.

Haven’t I just called you Mrs.

Lou?

Or did I get it wrong?

You’re not surnamed Lou?”

Ruozi: “…”

She stared daggers at Su He, who had a sharp tongue.

Tang Sirou also took the opportunity to interject, “Dr.

Su, how can you speak to my auntie like this?

After all, she is Mr.

Yan’s mother, and therefore your mother-in-law, Dr.

Su.

The way you are speaking to my auntie really isn’t appropriate.”

Su He, hearing Tang Sirou’s soft and delicate words, shifted her gaze onto her.

The two exchanged glances, and Su He caught the fleeting sarcasm and provocation in her eyes.

Unperturbed, she subtly smiled, “Regarding appropriateness, there’s no need for Miss Tang to be pointing fingers here.

But as far as I know, since my father-in-law passed away, our Mr.

Jiang also lost his mother.

Hence, by that logic, I naturally do not have a mother-in-law, do I?”

With a light scoff, she added, “Of course, that’s what I heard from our Mr.

Jiang.

He said he doesn’t have a mother, so as his wife, I naturally can’t just recognize any mother-in-law, can I?

What do you think, Miss Tang?”

Su He said with a smile, tossing the words back to her.

Tang Sirou did not expect Su He to be so eloquent, and was momentarily left speechless.

However, Lou Ruozi began to get even more infuriated as she listened, a mere girl daring to treat her with such disrespect.

But before she could lose her temper, Su He beat her to the punch,

“Of course, we have no intention to curse Mrs.

Lou, haha.”

A faint smile always hung on her face as she spoke to the seething Lou Ruozi.

“Our Mr.

Jiang is indeed also born to you, Mrs.

Lou, and that’s not wrong, but—”

Su He’s gaze suddenly turned colder, “You indeed have no right to be his mother, you gave birth to him, but you’re no different from those mothers who abandon their children after birth, the only difference is that you might have taken care of him for a few more years.”

The angrier Lou Ruozi listened, the darker and uglier her face became.

Th𝗲 most uptodate novels are published on ƒгeewёbnovel.com.

But Su He did not care about these.

“But likewise, during the most painful and darkest time when he lost his father, you abandoned him, do you think you still have the right to ask for his forgiveness?”

“Mrs.

Lou, having a thick skin isn’t a bad thing for a person, but when it’s too thick, that’s going too far.”

“An old saying goes, for birth without nurture, a severed finger can be returned, for birth with nurture, a severed head can be returned, for not giving birth but providing care, it’s a debt that can never be repaid in one hundred lifetimes.

The latter two don’t apply to you, let’s just discuss the former, but there’s no need to cut off a finger, his fingers are quite attractive, such a shame to cut them.” She smacked her lips, a look of pity on her face, then continued, “Because you’ve already abandoned him, so he doesn’t owe you anything.”

Su He’s words were piercing to the heart.

Uncle Zhong stood by, listening with trepidation, truly worthy of being the Young Madam, daring to say anything.

Meanwhile, the man who had been inside the living room without any intention of coming out was eagerly listening.

This wife of his really lived up to his expectations.

That sweet little mouth of hers was not only melodious but also quite articulate.

Tonight, she had shown him yet another side of herself.

On the other hand, Lou Ruozi was shaking with anger, even her finger pointing at Su He was trembling.

“Su He, you sure are clever with your words, a woman like you isn’t worthy of my son at all.”

Her face was twisted in anger, her eyes glaring daggers at Su He.

Su He arched her brows, replying with nonchalance, “Whether I’m worthy or not, you needn’t concern yourself.”

“Su He, I will definitely make Jiang Yan divorce you!”

“Okay, I’m waiting.”

“Someone with your immoral conduct, sharp tongue, and disrespect for elders is not fit to be my daughter-in-law!”

“Pfft, I couldn’t care less.”

“You…”

Lou Ruozi was utterly lost for words, not knowing what to say.

Mainly because no matter what she said, Su He always appeared indifferent.

It was like hitting cotton with a fist, the anger stuck in her chest, neither rising nor falling.

“Step aside, I didn’t come today to find you, I’m here to find my son.”

Lou Ruozi wasn’t an impulsive person; seeing Su He like this, she naturally couldn’t just clash head-on with her—she wasn’t here to argue with her today.

She would have plenty of opportunity to deal with her later.

Su He remained unmoved, standing there straight.

“Mrs.

Lou, it seems you didn’t listen carefully to my first sentence just now,” Su He spoke.

Lou Ruozi frowned upon hearing this, what had she said?

Indeed, she hadn’t paid much attention.

“Auntie, Dr.

Su just said that we trespassed in her house,” Tang Sirou said in a somewhat embarrassed tone, whispering to Lou Ruozi.

At this moment, Tang Sirou didn’t dare to directly confront Su He; she had realized that Su He was not as docile and indifferent as she appeared on the surface.

Her words were as sharp as a razor.

Hearing this, Lou Ruozi’s face turned sour again.

“Su He, I come to my son’s house, on what grounds do you say we trespassed in your house?

You’re quite bold, when did Moon Gift Villa become yours?”

Su He smiled lightly, “Unfortunately for you, it has indeed become mine.”

“What did you say?”

“What?”

Lou Ruozi and Tang Sirou both exclaimed in surprise.

What does she mean it has become hers?

Su He glanced at them with disdain, “Are you two Level 10 not-catch-a-single-word masters?”
