"Fu's?" Guo Ran expressed some surprise, "I thought you would choose Qi's."
Although both families were leaders in their fields and both CEOs were outstanding young talents, in her heart, Guo Ran leaned more towards Qi Jincheng.
Fu Yanting was too much of a fox, old and calculating.
On the contrary, Qi Jincheng was cold and decisive, more straightforward.
As friends, neither of these men were suitable, but as business partners, Qi Jincheng was slightly more appropriate.
Su Yin tugged at her lips, but after thinking, she spoke, "I am divorced, and my ex-husband is Qi Jincheng."
"What?!" Guo Ran's eyes almost popped out, incredulously asking, "You, you… you actually are…"
Su Yin laughed self-deprecatingly, "I am Su Yin, that fake rich daughter."
After ending the phone call, Su Yin leaned back on the sofa again, feeling somewhat exhausted.
Death was sudden, and rebirth was just as sudden, it all felt like it happened within a few hours.
She couldn't forget the scene of her death; the shock of rebirth was too much for her, and only now was she starting to relax mentally.
Their marriage was a business alliance, Qi Jincheng didn't love her, and after the wedding, they were barely respectful to each other.
She loved him deeply, thinking she could warm his heart, but she hadn't anticipated that she'd be exposed as not the Su family's biological daughter, and Su Beibei was the true Su family heiress! Coincidentally, Su Beibei was also Qi Jincheng's lifesaver and his first love...
When Qi Jincheng proposed divorce, in her panic, she thought having a child would keep them together, and she bravely served Qi Jincheng a drink laced with something.
But later, only after the child was gone did she understand.
A man who doesn't love her, how could he love her child.
Su Yin lowered her eyes slightly and smiled faintly, she picked up a glass of water and took out a pill.
She lowered her head, touching her belly.
"Child, I'm sorry, I'm not worthy to be your mother, go find a family where both parents will love you," she said.
After speaking, she swallowed the contraceptive pill, and tears followed, falling heavily.
She… really was a failure.
The next day.
Su Yin got up early and decided to visit her law firm, but… she had just stepped out when her phone suddenly rang again.
Seeing the caller ID, her eyelashes uncontrollably trembled.
After hesitating for a moment, Su Yin still answered the call.
"Mom."
"Mom? You still have the face to call me mom? All these years I've cared for you diligently, and you have no gratitude for me? Now my biological daughter is bullied like this by you! Su Yin, do you even have a conscience?!"
Meng He used to always call her dear daughter, or else just Yinyin.
But ever since Su Beibei was brought back, everything changed.
Su Yin bit her lip, "Mom, I didn't."
"Still arguing! Come to the hospital now!"
An hour later.
Hospital.
Su Yin walked to the door and heard the conversation inside.
"Jincheng, please don't blame Yinyin, it was my own lack of care that made me fall accidentally, Yinyin just tried to help me but couldn't hold on," Su Beibei said.
"You don't need to defend her. Before you appeared, she could pretend to be decent and graceful. Since you showed up, she feared you would take everything from her and resorted to repaying you without any cost, Su Yin is not as simple as you think," Qi Jincheng argued.
Su Yin's eyes filled with intense sarcasm, pretense.
Yes... In Jincheng's eyes, she was undoubtedly a villain, Su Beibei was always the best, and whatever Su Beibei did wrong, it was right, because she always took the blame for her.
But the next woman's voice made Su Yin's eyelashes tremble.
"Yes. I never expected this... Su Yin was raised by me, but she, she is ungrateful and even wants to retaliate against my own daughter, I've raised a thankless wolf!"
"Mom, it's not like that, Yinyin would definitely not do this, you really misunderstand her."
"Misunderstand what? I saw with my own eyes that it was she who pushed you down the stairs, how can there be any mistake?" Meng He said with a face full of pain, "Had I known, I never should have raised a murderer who could harm my daughter!"
"Mom..."
Jincheng's magnetic voice interrupted her, "Beibei, no need to defend her anymore. For now, just focus on healing yourself and avoid any accidents. I've already divorced Su Yin, but we still need to lay low for a while. We'll get engaged after some time."
"But, am I not taking away what belongs to Yinyin..."
"Daughter, it was originally yours! It was Su Yin who took it from you!"
It was then that Su Yin came to her senses, the chill on her face making her wipe away a tear.
Speaking of her and Jincheng's divorce, there were two reasons.
One was that Jincheng thought she was sinister and vicious, even often mistaking her for wanting to kill Su Beibei.
The other was that her initial marriage to Jincheng was a business alliance; after getting married, they just maintained a facade of a good relationship. Now that Su Beibei had appeared, the Su Family naturally could not allow their biological daughter to be outside, constantly demanding they divorce.
Even though she had accepted the reality, hearing these words was still painful.
Su Yin closed her eyes; it didn't matter, from today onward she would be as tough as iron! Those who had hurt her, none would get away! She took a deep breath and pushed open the door—
The door opened, and Su Yin immediately saw Meng He, who had raised her for over twenty years.
Dressed in a dark green dress, one hand rested in front of her lower abdomen while the other held the door handle, her well-maintained face coldly looking towards her.
Moving aside, Su Beibei lying on the hospital bed also came into view, and Su Beibei was holding Jincheng's hand, who was sitting beside the bed.
Su Yin pursed her lips: "Mrs. Su, did you need me for something?"
Meng He's expression darkened even more, "Mrs. Su?"
Su Beibei made an effort to get up, with a pained expression saying, "Yinyin, how can you address Mom like that? Although you are no longer blood-related, Mom still raised you for over twenty years..."
"You just lie down." Jincheng said concernedly, stopping her.
Meng He also quickly came back to her senses, walking to Su Beibei's side, extremely worried, "My girl, just lie here. Even if someone important comes, you don't need to get up, let alone for her?"
"Mom... I'm really okay..."
Meng He's piercing gaze suddenly shot towards her, "What are you still doing standing there?!"
Su Yin tugged at her lip; once upon a time, Meng He's look was full of affection, always protecting and shielding her from any harm.
But now... it all seemed like just a dream.
"You pushed Beibei from upstairs, and doing such a malicious thing, don't you even have an apology? Beibei was afraid that I and Achen would blame you, stubbornly insisted it had nothing to do with you, are you still going to pretend to be innocent?!"
Su Yin tugged at her lip, "What I've done, I'll admit, but if I haven't done it, I won't..."
"Su Yin."
Before she could finish her sentence, Jincheng immediately interrupted, coldly looking at her, "Apologize to her."
Meng He's eyes flickered, not saying a word, clearly agreeing with Jincheng's statement.
Su Beibei's eyes gleamed with triumph, yet her face showed panic as she shook her head, "This shouldn't be done, this..."
"It's appropriate, Beibei, just lie there and don't move!" Jincheng's eyes were icy cold.
Su Yin laughed in anger, "Don't throw dirty water on me for things I haven't done, Su Beibei, you know exactly what happened. You want this glorious identity, I never thought of competing with you for it, so why stoop to such despicable acts?!"
—Slap—!
