"Junyu came to see me once. I couldn't worry about you, so I came back to have a look." Su Jiuge's eyes fell lightly on Su Wanqing's somewhat panicked face.
"...Mom, I..." Su Wanqing lowered her head, not daring to look into her eyes.
"Wan Qing, my mother was young once, and she also made mistakes. Listen to me and stay away from Xichen, okay?" Su Jiuge didn't get angry. She seemed to never lose her temper and was always so calm.
of.
A faint mist fell over her glazed black eyes, as if given by a dream, and the shame of being discovered by her elders enveloped her, almost suffocating her.
"But... I like him, I like Xi Chen..." With a strong sense of shame, her ears turned red, but she still said it.
The long and narrow eyes narrowed slightly, and the smile on Su Jiuge's face was inappropriate: "He is not suitable for you. No matter in any aspect, he is not a beloved person that you can trust for life."
In one sentence, it was equivalent to sentencing her to death.
Su Wanqing was unconvinced and her stubborn temper came to the fore. She endured the shame and said something back.
"What about Luo Mingxuan? Luo Mingxuan is my mother, can you trust her to be your lifelong lover?"
She didn't even want to call that person "Dad". She had never had a father since she was a child and had always longed for the feeling of a father's love. However, she really couldn't agree with this repressed "father's love" from Luo Mingxuan.
Su Jiuge kept his mouth half open and didn't speak for a while. His narrow and gentle eyes contained complex emotions that ordinary people couldn't understand.
Su Wanqing had never seen her mother look like this before, and she felt a little scared for no reason. Her mother must be angry.
She lowered her head in shame: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have instigated the relationship between you and your husband."
"It has nothing to do with you..." Su Jiuge averted her complicated gaze, and returned to her usual calm and calm self, "Xuan's heart is not with me, it's just that she seems to be in harmony but is far apart."
Su Wanqing's hands trembled, and her heart trembled even more violently. Her face turned pale.
The secrets about herself and Luo Mingxuan were like an evil vine in the darkness, gradually climbing up and strangling her heart.
"Actually, I have never told you that Xuan and I are in a contract marriage, which lasts for two years." Su Jiuge smiled helplessly, "I used to look forward to this marriage, but after I got into it, I realized that it was just that."
"Contract marriage? Two years?" Su Wanqing stared at Su Jiuge's face in surprise, "Mom, are you kidding?"
"Of course not. I signed a contract with Xuan before we got married." Su Jiuge held Su Wanqing's hand, "Except for love, he can give me anything."
"He...why did he do that?" Su Wanqing's spine went cold.
Su Jiuge looked at his daughter carefully, as if he wanted to see the depths of her soul.
She stared at Wan Qing for a long time, shook her head, and lied: "I don't know."
"I am his subordinate, and I have no right to interfere with his decision." This was Su Jiuge's explanation.
While feeling sorry for her mother, a thought flashed through Su Wanqing's mind.
According to the contract, in more than a year, her mother and Luo Mingxuan will reach an agreement to divorce, and then she and Xichen will lose the shackles of the legal relationship——
Just thinking of this, Su Wanqing felt an even stronger sense of guilt in her heart. She was such an unfilial daughter. She even thought about divorcing her mother and her lover?!
