105: Chapter 105 A Mother’s Expectations 105: Chapter 105 A Mother’s Expectations At that time, upon hearing what his mother said, Su Zhe knew nothing but to cry, unable to utter a single word.

Jiang Xiaoran held him, as if he were still a little baby, until he had calmed down, and then she spoke slowly and deliberately.

“Zhe, don’t be afraid.

Mom knows you’ve already become sensible, a smart and understanding child.

So you should also know, Mom doesn’t have much longer to live.”

Upon hearing this, little Su Zhe was almost about to cry again.

“Mom knows this is hard to accept, but you are a sensible child.

Mom hopes you can become strong so that in the future you can protect yourself.”

“First and foremost, your safety and health are the most important.

You were once very sick, and it was not easy to regain your health, so you must cherish it.”

“Study well.

It’s not about having excellent academic grades, but you need to learn, gain knowledge, improve yourself.

Don’t indulge yourself in doing nothing and wasting time just because the family conditions are superior.

You would regret it when you’re old.

Mom doesn’t want you to have regrets about your life.”

“Be grateful, kindness is essential, but it’s not necessary to be kind to everyone.

You need to have eyes that can distinguish right from wrong, and offer your kindness to those who deserve it.”

“After Mom passes away, I don’t know when that woman will marry your father.

You need to prepare yourself mentally.

Mom doesn’t want you to be too sad about it later, to waste your emotions on some trivial people.

She will marry your father, but she won’t have any more children.”

“This is Mom’s plan.

Rather than waiting for Mom to be gone and your father stirring up troubles with various women outside, bringing home siblings from different mothers.

It’s better to let your father marry that woman.

She won’t have more children, and your father will feel guilty towards both me and her, and thus he will restrain his private life.

There won’t be so many illegitimate children, which would save you a lot of trouble in the future.”

“Moreover, that woman, she seems not very smart.

Dealing with not smart people, you can save more of your mental energy.

All of Mom’s properties will be left to you, managed by a professional managerial team, and you can take control once you’re of age.”

“Then, whether you want to be a non-business person, continue business, or even sell these properties to start your own venture is fine, but Mom hopes you wait until you have your own sharp vision and judgment to make those decisions.”

After sharing all this, Jiang Xiaoran was somewhat tired and really wanted to sleep.

Her illness made her easily exhausted.

But there was one thing that she always remembered to tell Su Zhe.

She earnestly said to Su Zhe, “Your father is not always kind.

If it weren’t for me taking charge, Xiaolu wouldn’t have been able to enter our family.

But you must not be like that.

You must be good to Xiaolu.

This child is kind-hearted and saved your life.

Sometimes, you should know that having a blood relation does not necessarily mean being genuinely connected.

Those who truly care for you and are good to you, even if not related by blood, can be considered truly connected.”

Su Zhe did not dare to forget a single word.

And later he realized that blood relations don’t really represent everything.

Just like he could never understand how, Su Jiao, who shared half of his blood, could be so malicious.

Both dumb and evil.

Just like her mother, Zhu Xinyan.

And Su Xiaolu?

Although she didn’t spend much time with his mother, Jiang Xiaoran, she truly seemed as if she had been personally taught by Jiang Xiaoran.

Kind and gentle, gentle yet strong.

Thus, in Su Zhe’s heart, right and wrong were always clearly distinct.

Su Jiao and Zhu Xinyan were the same, both dumb and evil.

As for Su Yi, the reason Su Zhe could still bear him was twofold: firstly, because after all, he was Su Lu’s brother; secondly, Su Yi was just dumb, not evil.

Zhu Xinyan’s face turned pale from what Su Zhe had just said, her lips even losing their color.

Even if Su Zhe had outright called her stupid and bad, afraid of death and reactionary, she, as an elder, couldn’t refute it or even utter a single syllable.

Because Zhu Xinyan could never have imagined that at that time, Su Zhe was actually there!

She had absolutely no idea!

And later, after she married into the Su Family, she had tried her best to please Su Zhe, sometimes even showing more concern for this child left by his original spouse than for her own daughter.

It seemed that from the very beginning, Su Zhe knew everything and had been silently watching her bounce around, currying favor.

What a joke.

Reflecting on it, Zhu Xinyan felt…

indeed, indeed, he was Jiang Xiaoran’s son.

Her heart chilled in an instant, and she couldn’t say a word.

Not only could she not speak, even Su Yukan didn’t know what to say, especially since even if Su Zhe felt his father was shameless, Su Yukan couldn’t have been shameless enough to openly justify or refute when his son accused him of betraying his mother and the family.

After a while, Su Yukan coughed lightly, his voice much lower, and said, “So many years have passed.”

Su Zhe didn’t argue with Su Yukan’s words but nodded instead, “Yes, so many years have passed.

Originally, I could have done this as soon as I came of age, but I didn’t immediately drive them out at that time considering Su Jiao was still young.

Looking at it now, I was quite merciful.”

Su Zhe said, laughing coldly, “But my mercy has caused Lulu to suffer quite a bit from their mother and daughter.”

Hearing the name Su Lu, Su Yukan became angry.

In his view, no matter what, these were his family affairs, and Su Lu was an outsider!

And yet his son was treating this outsider better than his own family!

Su Yukan frowned, “Jiaojiao is your biological sister.”

Su Zhe smiled, “The mom of my biological sister, who broke up my parents’ marriage.

And the ‘outsider’ you always mention, the Lulu you’ve kept bullying, saved my life.”

Su Lu, standing by, said nothing, not wanting to speak, too tired to bother already with Su Yukan, Zhu Xinyan, and Su Jiao.

At that moment, Su Zhe’s phone rang, and he handed it directly to Su Lu to answer.

Su Lu took the call, “Hello.”

After listening for a moment to the other end, she turned and quietly said to Su Zhe, “It’s your secretary.

He said everyone has already arrived at the front door.”

Su Zhe raised an eyebrow, “Let them come in.”

In no time, Secretary Yang, in a suit and leather shoes, led a group of people in.

Secretary Yang, in his attire, was followed by a group of workers all in uniform, their uniforms all bearing the logo — “Express Moving Company, at Your Service!”
