"What else did she tell you? Did she call Qiao Tian and me unforgivable villains, asking you to help her find evidence of my crimes?"
Bai Xue's expression confirmed Su Yan's suspicion, and he started to laugh.
"Qiao Tian's little police flower is so interesting!"
She is audacious yet naive enough to involve Mrs. Su!
She's not afraid that Mrs. Su might bite back, how innocently brave!
"Why would she have that kind of misunderstanding? Is it true that your accident was not just a coincidence?" Since he brought it up, Bai Xue asked him directly.
"Misunderstanding? How can you be so sure that it was her misunderstanding, not me being truly villainous?" Su Yan looked at her, smirking playfully.
"You're not that kind of person." Although he is not exactly a good man, he would never do something that harms others!
"What if I am?"
"The Su family has enough money for you to live ten lifetimes comfortably!" Why would he need to take risks!
"People are never content, who would think they have too much money?"
"You wouldn't!" Bai Xue insisted steadfastly.
Her firm voice was like a hammer, pounding his heart fiercely.
He lifted her chin, "Why do you trust me so much?"
"Because you are my husband." And he was also the man she loved the most. She believed in his integrity and moral baseline.
Su Yan looked at her, began to laugh heartily, leaving Bai Xue baffled and annoyed by his insolent laughter.
His expression was like she had said something incredibly funny!
"Stop laughing!" she ordered.
Seeing her both angry and annoyed, Su Yan laughed even louder.
He noticed several glimpses of childlike sweetness in Mrs. Su's demeanor!
Pretty rare indeed!
The more he laughed, the more foolish Bai Xue felt. She grabbed a pillow and covered his face with it.
Let him laugh! Just let him laugh!
"Murdering her own husband! Help, Mrs. Su is murdering her own husband!" Su Yan shouted out loud, rolling over and pinning Bai Xue under him.
As their eyes met, an unspoken affection slowly arose.
Su Yan was the first to pull away.
He felt frustrated, what was he doing!
He actually found Mrs. Su somewhat adorable, even a little…
With a sudden movement, Su Yan got up and departed.
"Where are you going?" Bai Xue yelled, as they were in the middle of a discussion!
"Where I go is none of your business? Just because I call you Mrs. Su, doesn't mean you can act as my wife and boss me around!" Su Yan scoffed.
A sharp pain pierced Bai Xue's heart, "I am indeed your wife, Su Yan! Do I need to show you our marriage certificate?"
"That's the law's recognition, not mine. Here," he pointed to his heart, "you are nothing!"
"Su Yan, why must you continue to hurt me like this!" even the strongest person has limits, she was flesh and blood after all, she hurt, she could break.
"Why? Don't you already know?" Su Yan mocked. Don't look at him like you're the victim, Bai Xue, you're definitely not the victim!
"Su Yan lost a bet and should admit defeat, I have given you so many chances. If your love wasn't strong enough and that's why you broke up, you can't blame it all on me!" She had already given them plenty of chances, anything more and she'd be too kind!
At these words, Su Yan had nothing to say. As she said, Bai Wanrou's love for him was not strong enough, it was not Bai Xue's fault. Bai Xue was stating the facts, but because they were facts, it made him even angrier!
As I mentioned before, Su Yan had grown up privileged, accustomed to smooth sailing and always being on top.
