Shadow and Light: The Bride Who Clicks Her Way to Love-Chapter 335 - 348: The Third Young Master of the Stanway Family
Sometimes, when she thinks about it, she feels she’s failed Han, a direct descendant of Blade Group the Lu Family, being raised so harshly.
She always wants to make it up to him, giving him the best of everything she can, whereas Ouyang Yi would say, "Boys shouldn’t be spoiled, if you have to hit, then hit; if you have to scold, then scold."
This man often accompanies Han to climb trees for bird eggs, fish in the river, and play with mud in war games, thoroughly enjoying himself. But whenever Han does something wrong, he doesn’t hold back when it comes to hitting him.
Su Xingyu aches whenever she sees Han being hit, thinking Ouyang Yi really is unapologetic. Everyone says stepmothers and stepfathers have a barrier, except for those who intentionally abuse, they tend to be cautious when raising children and don’t really go at it like real parents. But Ouyang Yi? He clearly doesn’t have such concerns, truly raising Han as his own son, not hesitating when hitting him.
This makes Su Xingyu feel touched amidst the heartbreak.
Despite being hit so many times, silly Han still follows Ouyang Yi everywhere he goes, happily calling him dad with his little short legs, hopelessly.
Su Xingyu rubbed her forehead, deciding not to think about this headache-inducing father and son pair anymore, and went to the desert with the filming crew.
The desert scenery was boundless, with fine sand grains flying around, like a golden dream.
Su Xingyu was eager to finish work early and go home, focusing entirely on the shoot. While other photographers had to adjust multiple times to get good shots, she only needed one or two takes to complete them, her efficiency astounding everyone. Many in the team, especially those working with Su Xingyu for the first time, became interested in her, a Chinese girl wearing a mask and a baseball cap, privately exclaiming, "That Eastern photographer named Axing is really incredible."
"Her eyes are quite beautiful too," someone else said, "I don’t understand why she always wears a mask?"
For years, Su Xingyu had been going out wearing a mask, always wrapping her face tightly. It couldn’t be helped, girls love beauty, and her face had been disfigured so badly that even Han cried scared as a baby, she really didn’t want to be pointed at and gossiped about.
The hot weather caused sweat to drip down.
Su Xingyu couldn’t wipe the sweat off her face like others, feeling more and more uncomfortable.
Finally finishing work on the first day, everyone packed up as the sun set.
She sighed lightly, put down her camera, and quickly walked towards the direction of the tent, wanting to reach her private tent to take off the mask, wipe off the sweat, and breathe freely.
Nearing the tent’s entrance, she was stopped by a tall, blond man with blue eyes.
The man looked about twenty-eight or nine, with an indescribably handsome face, offering her a white towel and saying very gentlemanly, "Wipe your sweat, Axing."
She was slightly startled, declining: "No need, I’m not hot."
This man looked somewhat familiar, although only wearing a simple white T-shirt and jeans, he seemed very rich. Su Xingyu couldn’t immediately recall where she’d seen him.
The man smiled serenely, his accent carrying a noblesse elegance and leisure, "Don’t recognize me? No wonder, I spontaneously decided to see how Feiying’s latest model camera performs in the desert landscape, took a helicopter over this afternoon, oh, let me introduce myself, I’m Jerry Stanford, the third heir of Feiying Group."
It turned out to be the third young master of Feiying Group!
Su Xingyu just then realized, isn’t he Ouyang Yi’s third brother? No wonder he looked familiar.
Though she had never met Jerry Stanford, she often saw his brother!
In the past few years, despite living in Country F, the city she was in was not the one where Feiying Group’s headquarters is located, and Ouyang Yi was in a quasi-exiled state as an illegitimate child, so she, being the nominal mother of Ouyang Yi’s son, had never actually met anyone from the Stanway Family.
"Hello," she courteously said to Jerry Stanford.
Jerry Stanford continued to smile, "Miss Axing, wipe your sweat, it’s hot standing here. I’d like to chat with you for a while."
She wasn’t very inclined to chat with him, earlier hearing from Ouyang Yi about his background, she didn’t have a very good impression of Feiying Steinway Family, but now facing the living third young master right in front of her, unequivocally, she couldn’t avoid it. She could only say, "Mr. Stanway, if you want to discuss the camera from Feiying, could you allow me to rest in the tent for a moment and change clothes? I’m a bit tired now, my mind is somewhat jumbled."
Jerry Stanford stood in front of her, effectively blocking her from the tent’s entrance, refusing to budge.
"No, no, who said we were going to talk about the camera?" Jerry Stanford smiled, "In fact, Miss Axing, I’m more interested in you as a person. Really not going to wipe your sweat? I’m quite curious to see your true face, what kind of beautiful face it must be to make my brother—let’s call that disgusting thing a brother—infatuated?"
Su Xingyu suddenly felt a cold tremor.
The hot wind from the desert blew in, she only felt a chill climbing up her spine.
Jerry Stanford’s tone was unfriendly, and moreover, he was specifically coming after her!
"What exactly do you want?" Understanding this, she didn’t want to pretend with him, she asked directly.
"I like straightforward girls like you," Jerry Stanford snapped his fingers, laughing, saying for the third time, "Take off your mask and let me see, I’m just curious about that disgusting fellow’s aesthetic, though countless examples over the years have shown his taste is terrible. Miss Axing, you really shouldn’t refuse me, my men should already be at Swan Apartment by now, let me think... what’s your son’s name? Han?"
"Don’t you dare touch Han!" Her heart shattered at that moment, unable to help but say.
Jerry Stanford’s tone remained elegant, "Then, could you please take off your mask?"
"If I take off my mask, will you let him go?" She asked trembling.
"Miss Axing, remember, I’m the one setting the rules, you seem to have no qualifications to negotiate with me." Jerry Stanford’s smile turned even more gleeful, "But I can tell you something, if you upset me, maybe I’ll make the rules even stricter."
Su Xingyu’s body began to shake, she rapidly assessed the current situation, realizing she stood no chance.
The only plan now was to quickly deal with this psycho and then contact Ouyang Yi to save him as fast as possible!
She hesitated no more and took off the mask.
The hideous black and red scars exposed themselves under Jerry Stanford’s gaze, twisted like worms, crawling over half of her cheek.
While the other half remained untouched, pristine as a fresh flower, the contrast was striking.
