CHAPTER 318: CHAPTER 105: TWO DAUGHTERS

"Kelly gave me not only a salary but also Wen Maixue herself," Mr. Perro’s words successfully caused Chang Mei’s face to change color.

Wen Maixue? The Wen family actually agreed to marry her off to a mere lecturer. "Impossible," these words almost slipped out of Chang Mei’s mouth, but seeing Mr. Perro’s calm demeanor, she became somewhat uncertain.

"Can the Su Family offer the same chips," Mr. Perro still maintained the same tone, but it sent a chill through Chang Mei’s spine. Chang Mei felt like standing up, turning around, and walking away. This poverty-stricken teacher, aspiring to reach beyond his means, dared to make such demands.

But the next thing Mr. Perro said made her abandon this thought, "If I take Su Ziceng away, then the Su Family will only have one Miss left," Mr. Perro looked at Chang Mei who remained silent, but the look in her eyes subtly changed.

"The Su Family has always had only one Miss Su, Ziceng, in the past, now, and in the future as well," Chang Mei said all in one breath, relieved after speaking. She had repeated this sentence to herself many times, and it was also the only promise she directly made to Qiao Chu before he passed away.

"But Su Ziceng likes Hang Yishao, and Mei also happens to like Hang Yishao. Plus, I know that recently Mei has been drowning her sorrows in bars because of Hang Yishao," Mr. Perro manipulated the heart of a mother.

"Xiao Chi," Chang Mei momentarily lost focus. Yes, ever since Su Qingzhang forbade Chang Chi from having any more to do with Hang Yishao, she hasn’t come home properly, her academic progress at school has also fallen behind, and she’s drunk every day. Is that still her daughter? In contrast, Su Ziceng was now spiritedly off traveling to Japan.

It’s unfair, why is it that for so many years, fate has always tormented her and her daughter. The refreshing chrysanthemum tea instead became a trigger for Chang Mei’s resentment.

Happiness must be fought for by oneself, Chang Mei profoundly understood this; everything she had now, she had striven for.

"These matters do not require Mr. Perro’s lesson," Chang Mei thought, surprised that her thoughts had been detected, and spoke stiffly.

"I am only speaking based on the matters at hand, the actual decision still rests in Mr. Su’s hands," Mr. Perro smiled as he stood up, "Sorry, I have a class in the afternoon, I must excuse myself." At this moment, Chang Mei’s heart was still in turmoil, needing to leave her to calm down alone.

Chang Mei also walked out of the restaurant, Kelly Women’s College still looked the same as it had years ago. She walked all the way to where the driver was, and when opening the car door, Chang Mei was still immersed in nostalgia.

Behind her, a noisy argument arose, previously affectionate, two female students began arguing over something, walking one after the other, ignoring each other, the distance between them growing.

Chang Mei paused for a moment, the driver had opened the door and waited a long time without seeing her get in the car.

"Secretary-General?" The driver reminded, "You need to hurry, this afternoon you also need to take Madam to the hospital for a prenatal checkup."

Ever since the last car accident, Su Qingzhang has taken the matter of Yan Wuxu’s outings very seriously. All the trips arranged by the hospital on normal days are chauffeured by this driver who has served Su Qingzhang for many years.

"Got it," Chang Mei replied displeasedly, and got into the car. Su Qingzhang explicitly sent her to invite Mr. Perro and did not come himself to show sufficient sincerity, but also didn’t let Mr. Perro feel too important. He couldn’t have anticipated Mr. Perro proposing such conditions. Chang Mei now didn’t plan to tell Su Qingzhang about Mr. Perro’s seemingly unreasonable demands.

In her view, Su Ziceng being with Mr. Perro might not be a bad thing. On the contrary, from the perspective of someone who has been through it, Mr. Perro is a man who can provide more security than Hang Yishao, a man with eyes that can read people’s hearts. If he genuinely cared for someone, he would definitely be a person worth entrusting a life with. Old Master Wen and Wen Maixue must have thought the same.

There’s one thing Mr. Perro miscalculated and even Su Qingzhang doesn’t know: Chang Mei doesn’t wish for Su Ziceng’s unhappiness; as long as it doesn’t interfere with Chang Chi, Chang Mei hopes that Su Ziceng, without using her brain, could live a lifetime as the sheltered Miss Su, unaware and unconcerned about anything, living comfortably.

The car left the high education district, and on a slope, the tires skidded a bit, luckily, thanks to the driver’s seasoned experience, the car only trembled slightly. The car didn’t lose control, but the person already did.
