Shattered by Fate, Restored by Truth

Chapter 733 Lu Ci: I’m So Happy!

Su Yao’s head was aching, and her heart was fluttering with anxiety.

When Yangyang came home from school at six o’clock, the family had dinner together. While Su Yao chatted with Qi Ran in the living room, she secretly texted Lu Ci.

Yao the Invincible Lawyer: My parents have arrived. Can you think of a way to keep people from gossiping tomorrow, and not discuss our matters in front of them?

Lu Ci quickly replied, cheekily asking: What matters between us?

Yao the Invincible Lawyer: Speak properly, I’m not going to blacklist you for now.

L: Madam, be realistic. Even if you blacklist me, it won’t settle our matters.

L: Think about how many people know that you’re my girlfriend? Tomorrow, I need to go to Hua Zheng’s place. Do you really think I shouldn’t greet your parents?

Once he meets with them, it would solidify his relationship with Su Yao. By then, no matter how sharp-tongued Su Yao was, she couldn’t clear everything up.

Thinking about this, Lu Ci felt somewhat happy.

Su Yao, reading his messages, felt despair and questioned her life.

Her heart was in turmoil, nervous and terrified, unsure of what to do.

Wanxin returned home after ten at night, tipsy from drinking. As soon as she got home, Su Yao dragged her into the room. Seeing the serious expression on Su Yao’s face, Wanxin furrowed her brows.

"What’s wrong?" Wanxin asked confusedly.

"What if mom and dad hear from others about me and Lu Ci?" Su Yao whispered back, "They definitely won’t be pleased!"

Wanxin: "Miss Su, you are in your twenties this year, remember?"

Su Yao: "???"

Wanxin: "You aren’t underage, why fear your parents over a relationship?"

"I-I’m not in a relationship!" Su Yao stuttered in retort, "Besides, Lu Ci is so close to Fu Shihan, mom and dad will definitely disapprove!"

"Oh wow, your face is red."

Wanxin teased her, poking her in the face, causing Su Yao to feel even more embarrassed. "Su Xiaowan, stop teasing me, otherwise I’ll tell mom and dad about you getting taken advantage of by Fu Shihan!"

Wanxin paused momentarily, her expression deepening, then quickly returned to normal.

"Go ahead~ Let’s go together, then I’ll also tell mom and dad that you have already met Lu Ci’s parents and that the Lu Family has even proposed to engage you!"

Mutually assured destruction, who’s afraid of who!

Hearing this, Su Yao didn’t dare to say a word. Wanxin, pleased with her reaction, chuckled lightly. "So, how about calling me sister, and I help you sort this out?"

"How would you sort it out?" Su Yao was suspicious. "They couldn’t possibly be unaware, right?"

"Indeed impossible. But think about it, is it better for them to find out in a mild way, or to be suddenly told by many people tomorrow?"

Without a doubt, the former was better.

Wanxin smirked, "Appease me, and I’ll go talk to them now to give them some mental preparation. Otherwise~~"

"Su Wanxin, how did you become so wicked? You really have learned to be bad from Fu Shihan!"

"Don’t mention him to me, I don’t want to hear his name." Wanxin turned her head and huffed. "I’m normally bad, he’s especially bad, I don’t want to learn from him!"

Wanxin showed signs of drunkenness, and Su Yao took it as shyness without thinking too much, teasing: "You should say this in front of him, lest he keeps being shameless and doesn’t understand how others see him!"
