Chapter 539: Chapter 539: To continue this entanglement would be truly embarrassing
Ye Shutong’s lips curled up smugly at the previous statement, but as soon as she heard the next one, her face immediately darkened.
"Su Zixi, you..."
"Miss Ye, you’re young, smart, and beautiful, there are so many good men in this world who would be willing to love you, so please stop making things difficult for me and my husband." Su Zixi spoke with a smile, "Although at first glance, Jingyao indeed seems like the best choice, his kindness to me doesn’t mean he’ll treat you the same. Wouldn’t you agree?"
Shutong stared at her intensely, her lips suddenly curved into a smirk, "Su Zixi, do you really think I want that kind of sickeningly sweet love?"
"I don’t care what you want." Su Zixi’s tone was slow and drawling, yet sharp as a needle hidden in cotton, "It doesn’t matter whether you’re attracted to Jingyao for his looks, personality, capabilities, or family background. What matters is that he is already mine. Miss Ye, if Jingyao had truly given me up for you, I’d have no complaints, but as it stands, he clearly has no interest in you. Your persistence is truly embarrassing."
By the end, Su Zixi’s words were deeply earnest.
Ye Shutong looked at her emotionlessly for a while before letting out a cold laugh, "You’re just lucky, that’s all."
"Luck is also a part of strength," Su Zixi retorted with a smile, "and you can’t even complain about that kind of thing, whether you like it or not."
Ye Shutong’s expression turned even uglier, she gave Su Zixi a cold glance before turning and striding away.
Only then did Su Zixi let out a quiet sigh of relief.
What to do? She was just that selfish.
Even if she had to be apart from Jingyao, She didn’t want him to be taken by another woman, especially not Ye Shutong.
Su Zixi stood there in a daze for a while before suddenly smiling nonchalantly and walking into the courtyard.
Soon, she stood before Chu Jinyu and greeted her with a smile, "Madam."
Hearing her address, a flash of loss swept through Chu Jinyu’s eyes, but she quickly suppressed it.
"Ah, you’re here." Chu Jinyu set down her cup and smiled, "The celebration is in three days when you’ll have to make a public appearance. Are you scared?" free𝑤ebnovel.com
Su Zixi shook her head with a smile, "This is what I should do, I understand."
As the President’s daughter, she too had responsibilities to uphold. Su Zixi might not like it, but she wasn’t afraid either.
"Very good, truly worthy of being my child," Chu Jinyu grasped her hand, her eyes crinkling in a smile, "Don’t worry. You’ll only need to make an appearance three or four times a year at most, and as the First Lady, I get a salary, and you’ll also receive an allowance."
Su Zixi returned the smile, "Really? That’s great!"
"If He Jingyao is also willing to attend, it would be even better." Chu Jinyu asked with a smile, "Do you want to discuss it with him?"
Su Zixi quickly shook her head, "No need, Jingyao doesn’t like attending those kinds of events."
Not to mention that Jingyao’s health was not suited to public appearances, even if he were able, Su Zixi didn’t fancy him being labeled as "the son-in-law of the President."
Chu Jinyu laughed teasingly, "Are you afraid that others will take notice of him?"
Su Zixi was somewhat embarrassed, but even so, she nodded firmly, "Exactly, he’s mine alone, and I don’t even want others to lay eyes on him."
