Su Wen’s face burned with embarrassment, her ears turning a shade of crimson. Swiftly, she averted her gaze, using her hand to delicately smooth the strands of hair cascading by her ear—a feeble attempt to conceal the emotional turmoil that raged within. Only after this spontaneous ritual did she manage to regain some composure.

Questions raced through her mind about Hengyang’s unusual demeanour. Why was his gaze different from usual? Did he discover something?

She, herself, was uncertain about the authenticity of her original character. Vigilance became her shield; Hengyang couldn’t have discovered her secret.

“Little Wen? I’m talking to you!”

Su Xueqiang’s impatient words jolted Su Wen back to reality. “I will never sell my sister. Matchmaker Zhao should abandon this idea! If needed, we’ll resort to legal action. I’ll stand my ground till the end.”

Su Xueqiang, Matchmaker Zhao, and Big Brother Zhu trembled at the prospect of Su Wen taking them to court.

“Easy, don’t be hasty. Who wants to go to court? Do you want the Fifth sister to be expelled from university after finally securing admission?” Su Xueqiang cautioned.

Pretending surprise, Su Wen covered her mouth. “What? Will it affect Fifth sister’s admission?”

“Undoubtedly. If word gets out that you struck a deal with the loan shark, it’ll tarnish the reputation of the entire Su family.”

“Then…Then what should I do? I can’t harm Fifth sister, and I can’t harm Third uncle and all of you! My third uncle, help me think of a way.”

After a protracted conversation, Su Xueqiang finally seized the opportunity.

Inwardly gloating, he suggested, “How about this, I’ll intercede with Big

Brother Zhu and Matchmaker Zhao. Zhu is an honourable man. Convince Hengyang to bet with them. If he wins, they’ll return the IOU.”

“Can I?”

“Of course. You shouldn’t doubt your Third Uncle. I’m doing this for your good. I wouldn’t bother if it were anyone else.” Su Xueqiang feigned benevolence.

Disgust welled up within Su Wen. “Alright, Third uncle, I believe you.”

“Then it’s settled.” Su Xueqiang left with a smirk, pausing at the door to admonish the silent Zhou Hengyang. “I’ll take you there after dark. Don’t embarrass me. You’re utterly useless.”

From that day forward, Su Xueqiang held Zhou Hengyang in even lower regard.

A towering man at 1.8 meters found himself devoid of stature in the family. Throughout the lengthy discussion, he hadn’t uttered a word. His wife had secretly borrowed a small amount of money and caused such a big disaster, yet he couldn’t voice his opinion.

This, according to Su Xueqiang, was the epitome of uselessness. He felt embarrassed just by looking at him.

After spitting in disdain, Su Xueqiang departed with an air of superiority.

Half an hour later, Yao Fang entered. Observing Su Wen adorned in an unfamiliar leather jacket and stylish black leather shoes, she knew she was preparing to go out.

“Are you going out? Just you?” Yao Fang inquired anxiously.

“And my Hengyang.” Su Wen gestured toward the silent figure leaning against the roof.

Only then did Yao Fang notice the dark-clad man. The sky had dimmed, and she might not have spotted him if not for her attentiveness.

“You can’t go. Su Xueqiang has already contacted Big Brother Zhu. Do you know who he is? A formidable force, far surpassing Matchmaker Zhao.” she said..
