Identity Exposed

Seeing that Xing Su was about to leave, Grandma Sun did not force her to stay. After reminding Xing Su to study hard, she sent her to the door. After Xing Su left, the living room returned to silence. Zhou Chen retracted his gaze and asked, "Teacher Sun, how do you know Xing Su?"

At the mention of Xing Su, Grandma Sun became more talkative. "You are asking about Susu? She's the granddaughter of my old man's immediate superior. Her grandfather's name is Xing Wutian, a hero with outstanding military achievements."

Xing Wutian's name stunned him. Of course, he had heard of this person's heroic deeds. His military merit medals could probably cover the entire wall. Although he had already retired at home, his students were stationed all over the various important departments and had strong connections. However, he had never heard Xing Su say that her grandfather was Xing Wutian.

He was still in shock and did not give up. "But his surname is all Xing. How could she be his granddaughter?"

Grandma Sun smiled and patted his shoulder. "Speaking of matter, there are many things involved. Susu's surname was originally He. You're a finance major, so you should have heard of Susu's father's name. He Benkang, the chairman of the Benkang Group. Susu was originally called He Su, but later on, she changed her surname to her mother's…"

He did not listen to the rest of the words. At this moment, his mind was blank. He had been in a relationship with Xing Su for three years, but he had never known that she had such a family background. Xing Su had always said that she came from an ordinary family. Her mother had passed away, and her father did not care about her. She lived with her grandfather alone, but he did not expect her to be so "ordinary".

He could not figure out why Xing Su was hiding her family background. With such a family background, shouldn't she say it out loud and make others envious? During this period of time, he could not sleep at night. Although Jiang Li was lying beside him, his mind was filled with Xing Su. He tried his best to convince himself that his choice was right. A man should choose a good wife in order to work less for many years. He came from a poor family and should seize every opportunity to climb up. However, during this period of time, there were frequent problems when he interacted with Jiang Li. He told Jiang Li that he wanted to see her uncle, but Jiang Li kept rejecting him. He began to suspect that Jiang Li did not want him to meet her uncle, Jiang Wenrui.

Now, Jiang Wenrui had yet to establish a relationship with him, and he had discovered that his ex-girlfriend's family background was so prominent… He felt like he had picked up a sesame seed and lost a watermelon. He began to blame Xing Su for hiding it from him. If Xing Su had told him about her family background, he would definitely not have chosen Jiang Li!

"Zhou Chen? Zhou Chen, what's wrong?" Grandma Sun's voice sounded in his ear. He looked at Grandma Sun in a daze for a moment before standing up and saying, "I'm sorry, Teacher Sun. I can't accompany you for dinner. I still have something on, so I have to go first."

Although Grandma Sun did not know what had happened, she quickly said, "It's fine, it's fine. Go ahead."

As soon as Zhou Chen said his goodbyes, he hurriedly ran out and almost tripped.

At the entrance of the military compound, the guard on duty, whose skin was tanned by the sun, was smiling at Xing Su with a red face. After Xing Su greeted the soldier on duty, she left the military compound.

Not long after, Zhou Chen caught up and grabbed Xing Su's arm. He pulled her into his arms and said emotionally, "Susu, I'm sorry, I'm sorry…"

Xing Su did not react at first. After being hugged for a while, she pushed him away. "Zhou Chen, are you crazy?"

Zhou Chen's eyes were filled with love. He held Xing Su's shoulder and said to her, "Why did you hide these things from me? Why? If I knew that you had such a prominent family background, how could I bear to part with you? You've always been the only one in my heart. The person I love has always been you!"

Hearing this, Xing Su was amused. If she still had fantasies about him before, at this moment, she no longer had any attachment to him. She looked down on such a man who had no bottom line and only wanted to cling to the rich and powerful.

Xing Su looked at him calmly. "A year ago, if you would have told me that you needed my father's help, I might have foolishly asked for my father's help and even let go of the grudge between us for you. But now, it's too late."
