Watching From The Sidelines

"I think Su Ning is not bad either! The gap between the two sisters is too big. I heard that they're twins. It really doesn't make sense."

Su Yu was walking in the crowd. When she heard these words, her heart did not waver.

None of these so-called family and friends could recognize Su Yu.

Ever since the night of her birthday, the way she dressed had completely returned to normal.

She no longer had slightly tanned skin, nor did she have an old-fashioned hairstyle. Her fashion style was no longer old-fashioned either. Furthermore, her face did not look solemn and cold anymore.

The person who appeared in front of everyone was a stunning beauty with a curvy figure.

Her appearance stunned everyone who noticed her, but no one would have thought that this beauty was the eldest daughter of the Su family, Su Yu.

"Whose daughter is this? She's so good-looking! Does anyone know her?"

"With her looks, it'll be a pity if she doesn't become a celebrity!"

"She's also a relative of the Su family? I've never seen her before!"

Everyone discussed animatedly, their eyes filled with admiration.

Su Yu was nowhere to be seen. Her stepmother, Wang Rong, was a little anxious. She pushed Su Ning and said, "Hurry up and call your sister again. Get her to come over quickly. No matter what, we have to succeed today. This is a rare opportunity."

Su Ning had just left with her phone when she saw Su Yu walking over from the crowd. There was a glint in her eyes.

It was only after her birthday banquet that she realized how outstanding Su Yu's appearance was when she dressed up.

Because of this, she was so jealous that she had not been able to sleep well in the past few days. It left a deep impression on her.

Hence, even from afar, she could recognize Su Yu at a glance.

When Su Yu got closer, she realized that Su Yu's face was pale but with a blush on her cheeks. Her skin was as fair as jade, and she looked radiant. She was even more beautiful today than that night.

Su Ning was so jealous that she could hardly breathe.

'Why can't I be that beautiful?'

As the saying went, appearance had to do with one's heart as well.

Ever since she was young, Su Yu had experienced countless hardships and difficulties. However, she could still maintain her kind, optimistic, tenacious, and upright character.

Even if such a person looked ugly, they would have a special bright aura around them.

Moreover, someone like Su Yu, who was already beautiful to begin with, would exude an even more dazzling charm when coupled with her aura.

'Why is such a terminally ill woman so beautiful? How is this fair?'

Su Ning gritted her teeth. She was filled with unwillingness.

"Sister, you're finally here!"

When Su Yu walked closer, Su Ning forced a fake smile and pretended to be close to her as she grabbed her hand.

Su Yu's hand was a little cold. It seemed that her illness had not improved. This made Su Ning feel more at ease.

Su Yu could not stand her hypocritical enthusiasm and quietly withdrew her hand.

"Why did you call me here today? I saw many people in the courtyard."

Su Yu asked indifferently.

The smile on Su Ning's face remained unchanged as she explained, "Dad said that our 20th birthday is a big day, so we can't just casually celebrate it. That's why he invited all our relatives and friends over to celebrate."

Su Yu's gaze landed on Su Ning's face as she sighed in her heart.

She could even say such nonsense so smoothly. She had simply broken through the limits of human nature.

Before she came, she had guessed that it was most likely for her shares.

With her years of experience in managing the company, Su Yu could roughly guess their motives and plans with just a glance.

However, she did not expose them. She wanted to see how far these people could go.

In particular, since Su Ning and her stepmother's family could be in such harmony now, it was obvious that their relationship was not simple.

All along, her stepmother's attitude toward Su Yu and Su Ning was extremely bad. Now, Su Ning was able to get along with this family and even looked like a loving daughter. This development made Su Yu think deeply about it.

She was alone and seriously ill, yet they had invited so many friends and relatives over. This was a planned ambush!

She was the only outsider in the family now.

Su Yu's heart ached. Perhaps the only person who truly loved her was her deceased mother.

At this moment, Wang Rong saw Su Yu and Su Ning at the door. A trace of dissatisfaction flashed past her eyes.

She had asked Su Ning to call Su Yu as soon as possible, but now, she was chatting with an unrelated person at the door. Wasn't she just delaying things?

Hence, she hurriedly walked over and revealed a fake smile.
