Two hours later, Shen Yuechuan received a phone call.
âThere is some progress in the things that you asked me to investigate.â The person on the other side of the phone was somewhat puzzled. âHowever, Su Yunjin seems to have nothing to do with you. Why do you suddenly want to look into her background?â
âYou just need to tell me what youâve found.â Shen Yuechuanâs voice was distant and threatening. âDonât ask things that youâre not supposed to.â
âOK.â The man on the other side put on a professional tone. âI found that after Jiang Ye passed away, Su Yunjin chose to abandon their child because she had serious depression. She didnât have the ability to raise a newborn child at all. But the most important reason was that her brother wanted to compete with her for the raising rights of the child and thus he could threaten her with the child.â
Shen Yuechuan pressed his temple. âI know all of this. Tell me something that I donât know.â
â... After abandoning the child, Su Yunjinâs depression didnât get better and it became even worse. Su Yunjinâs then psychologist vaguely told me that after sending the child away, Su Yunjin had been having nightmares and dreamed that the little boy came back to find her and told her that he would never forgive her. That is the main reason why Su Yunjinâs depression couldnât be cured.â
Shen Yuechuan slightly frowned. âWhat else?â
âWhatâs more, even though she gave up her child, Su Hongyuan still didnât let her go. At that time, Su Yunjin bore a huge debt and received countless calls asking for money every day. Her spirit was on the verge of breaking down. Su Hongyuan proposed that as long as Su Yunjin came back to the country with him and hid the fact that she gave birth to a child, he would pay the money back for Su Yunjin. Now you should have guessed it... Su Hongyuan was the one who conducted the debt pursuit behind Su Yunjinâs back.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Two words, covered with ice, jumped out of Shen Yuechuanâs thin lips. âSo despicable.â
âDo you mean Su Hongyuan?â The person on the other side of the phone made a sound of âtsk-tskâ. âHe has done even more despicable actions. Do you want to know?â
âTell me!â
âSu Yunjin had already cut off relationships with Su Hongyuan at that time. So she definitely would not agree to Su Hongyuanâs requests. Later, the hospital filed a lawsuit against Su Yunjin and forced Su Yunjin to find a job even in depression. However, Su Hongyuan secretly created obstacles during the process, and Su Yunjin could not find a suitable job at all.â
â...â Shen Yuechuan kept silent and didnât talk.
âFinally, it was the doctor who was in charge of Jiang Yeâs illness who introduced Su Yunjin to be a waitress in a cafe. I checked and found that the salary was not high, and 90% of it was used by Su Yunjin to pay off the debts. But the money was only a drop in the bucket compared to the huge debt. Along with depression, Su Yunjin led a very bad life during that time.â
Shen Yuechuanâs hands clenched into a fist as he kept silent. Because he clenched too tightly, his finger joints became whiter and whiter. âWhat happened in the end?â
âSuch terrible days lasted for about half a year, then something strange happened.â
âWhat is it?â Shen Yuechuan asked.
âSu Yunjin suddenly got together with a man. The man was called Xiao Guoshan. He was from City G and was an overseas student like Su Yunjin. After Su Yunjin got together with him, not only did he pay off the debt for Su Yunjin, but he also helped Su Yunjin to solve the troubles caused by Su Hongyuan. After that, he took Su Yunjin to Australia and they had a daughter, whose name was Xiao Yunyun.â
Shen Yuechuan was silent for a moment before he asked, âHow did she end up with Xiao Guoshan?â
âI donât know. I couldnât find out.â The person on the other end of the line paused for a moment and then said, âBut under such circumstances, the purpose of Su Yunjin being with Xiao Guoshan is obvious. He had money and could help her solve the difficulties in front of her! And later, in Su Yunjinâs circle, everyone said it like that as well. Everyone said that she betrayed Jiang Ye and took advantage of Xiao Guoshanâs affection...â
âEnough!â Shen Yuechuan suddenly snapped, âYou donât know what happened to her. So donât speculate without permission!â
â...â The person at the other end seemed to be scared by Shen Yuechuan. After a long while, he weakly asked, âSpecial Assistant Shen, are you alright?â
Only then did Shen Yuechuan realize that his reaction was too aggressive. He pressed on his temple again. âIâm sorry.â
âOh, it doesnât matter. However, does Boss Lu know that you are investigating this?â
âItâs my personal affair. He doesnât know.â Shen Yuechuan added, âIf he doesnât ask then you donât have to mention it to him.â
In fact, Lu Boyan knew about his relationship with Su Yunjin, so it was not a big deal to let him know that he was investigating Su Yunjin.
However, those few months should have been the most difficult period in Su Yunjinâs life. He didnât want too many people to know.
âI see. Thatâs all for now. Iâve sent you an email if you want more details. You can read it later.â
âThank you.â Shen Yuechuan hung up the phone, and a notification of receiving an email jumped out from the lower right corner of the screen. The message was sent from the person who had just spoken with him.
He knew what was in the email and he didnât have the courage to read it at all.
Shen Yuechuan turned off the phone and thought for a while. Then he went to the balcony of the living room for a smoke.
Today, when he was having his tests, Henry had specially told him not to smoke and to drink as little as he could.
However, sometimes, other than the smoke that could seep into his lung and heart, there was nothing else that could pull him back from the dark abyss.
Especially after knowing that there was no possibility between Xiao Yunyun and himself.
He only needed the time it took to smoke a cigarette, and after that, he would be able to regain his clear-headed and ready-to-fight state.
Two days later, all Shen Yuechuanâs test results came out and he went straight to the hospital after work.
This time, he didnât meet Su Yunjin.
It was because Shen Yuechuan had already asked Henry not to immediately tell Su Yunjin about the results that came out.
Facing the thick pile of test reports, Shen Yuechuan did not understand and was also not interested in reading them. He directly asked Henry, âHow much time do I have?â
âAt present, the situation is still fairly optimistic and we canât see any obvious signs of abnormalities in your body.â Henry adjusted his glasses and continued, âAlso, your physical health is much better than your fatherâs. Moreover, more than twenty years have passed and we no longer know nothing about this illness. Do you understand what I mean? You have a good chance of being cured. So, donât be pessimistic.â
Shen Yuechuan nodded. âThen Iâll leave the rest to you.â
âYouâre too polite.â Just as he finished speaking, the phone next to the computer rang. He motioned for Shen Yuechuan to look at the screen
âFay.â
It was Su Yunjinâs English name.
âShe must be calling to ask about the test results from you,â Shen Yuechuan said. âSince Iâm fine, tell her the truth. Iâll go first.â
After saying that, Shen Yuechuan left Henryâs office and went to the directorâs office to talk about something.
He came to the hospital in the name of dealing with business. If he went back without doing anything then Lu Boyan would be suspicious after a few times.
There were too many things that were complicated at the moment, and the most important thing was that Su Jianâanâs expected delivery date was close. So he would hide his own matter for as long as he could.
When Shen Yuechuan arrived at the directorâs office, Henry was still talking to Su Yunjin on the phone.
Hearing that Shen Yuechuanâs situation was still fairly optimistic, Su Yunjin let out a sigh of relief and asked, âHenry, does Yuechuan know the result?â
Henry thought for a moment. Then, he helped Shen Yuechuan tell a lie. âHe doesnât know them yet. I was just about to contact him and have him come to the hospital.â
âDo you need me to come over there?â Su Yunjin sounded quite dubious.
Henry smiled and replied, âI donât think you need to make a special trip here. Yuechuan is an adult now and itâs not bad news that he is going to face. He should be able to accept it by himself.â
Su Yunjin still wanted to say something, but right at the moment, the doorbell rang. She looked through the peep hole and saw Xiao Yunyun standing outside the door.
Now she couldnât go to the hospital even if she wanted to.
She hurriedly said goodbye to Henry and hung up the phone. She opened the door and said, âYunyun, why didnât you say that you were coming over? What if I was not at the hotel?â
âI just came by after work.â Xiao Yunyun shrugged. âIt doesnât matter if you arenât here. I could have slept and waited for you to come back.â
Su Yunjin smiled helplessly and said, âHave you eaten yet? If not, letâs eat together?â
Xiao Yunyun answered with a âhmmâ and said, âI have something to tell you during dinner.â
Su Yunjin had already guessed what Xiao Yunyun would say to her. When she went to the restaurant to order, Xiao Yunyun did mention the matter of the postgraduate entrance examination to her. The young girlâs face was serious and stubborn, as if to tell her that even if she objected, the decision would not be changed. She would definitely take the postgraduate entrance examination.
Su Yunjin picked up a piece of beef for Xiao Yunyun and said, âGo ahead. No matter which the school you want to enter or where it is, at home or abroad, or back in Australia. Your father and I will always support you.â
In order to study medicine, Xiao Yunyun once had had a big fight with Su Yunjin.
Therefore, before she proposed the postgraduate entrance exam this time, she had been ready to fight against Su Yunjin for a long time.
However, Su Yunjin agreed to her request so easily.
Xiao Yunyun opened her eyes wide and did not hide her surprise, âMom, you, you...?â
âDo you think that I would still object?â Su Yunjin didnât answer but asked instead, âYunyun, if Mom had opposed, would you have given up the postgraduate entrance examination?â
Xiao Yunyun shook her head. âI donât think so. Iâve already decided to take the postgraduate entrance exam and Iâve already started reviewing.â
âThatâs right.â Su Yunjin said, âSince itâs useless for me to object then why do I need to oppose you? Anyway, you are going to graduate from your bachelorâs degree. Itâs better to let you continue to study this. Whatâs more, nothing is more valuable than your interests.â
Xiao Yunyun didnât feel very happy. On the contrary, she was very puzzled. âMom, can I ask you, why did you suddenly change your mind?â
âBecause I have thought through some things.â Su Yunjin looked at Xiao Yunyun and slowly said, âYunyun, I donât want you to hate me any more in the future.â She had broken up Shen Yuechuan and Xiao Yunyun, which had already caused great harm to Xiao Yunyun. She did not want to do anything that would make Xiao Yunyun sadder.
Xiao Yunyun shook her head and pursed her lips. âMom, in fact, I have never blamed you. If you didnât agree to me studying medicine then there must be a reason for you. Besides, I didnât listen to you earlier, so we are even.â
Su Yunjin smiled and said, âLittle girl.â
Hearing these two words, Xiao Yunyun was a little touched.
When in Australia, unless she was at home, she spoke English all the time. After coming to City A, she and her classmates mostly called each other with names.
Only Shen Yuechuan would call her âlittle girlâ.
Little girl, naughty girl, stupid girl...
Later, when she searched on the Internet, she found out that these two words had the meaning of spoiling and protecting, just like an elder brother would say to his younger sister.
Now that she thought about it, Shen Yuechuan was indeed far-sighted. He had treated her like his younger sister from the very start!
