Chapter 384: 384, bribery in secret, unworthy to be a mother.
Lu Zixi hurriedly asked, “Is he five years old this year?”
Su Wanwan nodded.
“His birthday was last month, right?”
Su Wanwan continued to nod.
However, Lu Zixi’s reaction next startled Su Wanwan.
She started crying.
Tears flowed unbidden from her eyes, streaking down her cheeks like a string
of pearls snapping.
She didn’t make any sound, just stared at her, tears streaming down her face.
It is said that a beautiful woman crying is like pear blossoms bathed in rain,
and Su Wenwen has now witnessed it.
Especially Lu Zixi’s eyes are slightly innocent, yet vulnerable almond-shaped eyes. The image of her holding back her tears, devoid of the playful and clever charm of the “national goddess” often seen on screen, made her all the more pitiful and endearing.
Zan Song from the side handed over a tissue. Lu Zixi wiped her eyes, calming
her emotions before finally speaking.
”My child, Ziyang is my child…”
Hearing this, Su Wanwan blurted out, “Impossible!”
“Miss Su, he really is my child!”
Su Wenwen explained, “Ziyang is the son of my husband’s friend. His dad is in the United Kingdom, Ziyang just came here a few months ago for school. He has nothing to do with you.”
“United Kingdom?” A fresh stream of tears began to fall from Lu Zixi’s eyes.
“Then it’s true, he must be my child. The man who got me pregnant went to the United Kingdom. I knew it, the moment I saw his eyes on the stage, I knew he was my child!”
“You must be mistaken.” Su Wanwan never expected the matter to take this turn. “And aren’t you only twenty-one years old? How could you possibly have a five-year-old child?”
Lu Zixi bit her lip, “I really had no other choice at the time.”
Su Wanwan:
Holy shit!
Did that reporter’s prediction actually come true, was the national goddess really a mother before she was even of legal age?
“I entered this industry when I was ten, and for various reasons, I had a child with a man when I was sixteen. The situation was very complicated, and the child was sent to an orphanage.
I sent them money for his living expenses every month. But never expected, the orphanage suddenly caught fire a year later. I was abroad for intensive training and by the time I rushed back, the child was gone.
I thought he was dead, everyone told me he was dead. But if he were still alive, he’d be five years old now and his birthday was last month, I didn’t remember wrong.”
Lu Zixi’s tears were streaming down her face, describing her story through sobs. You could tell she was emotional.
Su Wanwan asked, “If so, why didn’t you clarify it that day?”
Lu Zixi said, “Miss Su, the entertainment industry isn’t as simple as you think. I’ve been through ups and downs in this field for eleven years, and I finally have some fame now. I can’t afford to lose. I know, you must think I’m an irresponsible mother, but back then I really was too scared to admit he was mine.”
Wiping her tears, she continued, “Zan Song is my good friend of many years, and I owe my entire career today to his grooming. He is also aware of this matter. He found all the footage from that day, but we couldn’t find any information about the child. We only found out that you’re a student at this university, hence why I came looking for you today.”
Zan Song spoke up, “Ever since Zixi found out about the child, she’s barely slept or eaten anything these past few days, she’s really worried about him.” “Really?” Su Wanwan sneered, “If she was really worried, why did she abandon him back then?”
Lu Zixi’s expression faltered, but before she could respond, Su Wanwan continued, “Besides, how can I believe that you are Ziyang’s mother just based on your words?”
Shouldn’t they do a paternity test or something?
Lu Zixi hurriedly took a check out of her bag, “That’s why, I am giving you this.”
Su Wanwan took it and looked at the number.
1, 2, 3, i, 5-
Wait, one million?
“This money is for you. Please help me keep this a secret for now. Can you then bring him to meet me? In the meantime, if reporters come to interview you, you must help me keep this a secret. My career is just starting to rise, and I really can’t afford any bad press.”
Su Wanwan, holding the cheque in her hand, remained silent.
Zan Song glanced at Lu Zixi. After catching her hint, Lu Zixi then continued, -This one million is just the deposit, if a paternity test proves that Ziyang is my son indeed, I’d like to ask Miss Su to continue taking care of him. I’ll give you another five million as child support, and an additional monthly living fee for Ziyang of fifty thousand. Could you give me your bank account then? We could sign a confidential agreement just between us.”
Su Wanwan looked at her and remained silent.
“Miss Su, do you think this is not enough? Then…”
Lu Zixi’s brows furrowed. She thought for a moment, then pulled a jewelry box from her bag.
Inside was a luxurious and beautiful pearl necklace.
-Because everything happened so suddenly, I didn’t have time to raise more money This necklace was a gift from a sponsor after I gave them an endorsement. If you pawn it, it could probably fetch about four to five million.”
With that, she pressed the jewelry box into Su Wanwan’s hand.
Su Wanwan held the jewelry box in one hand and the cheque in the other, her gaze fixed onto Lu Zixi.
Lu Zixi’s expression instantly turned even more agonized, “Miss Su, please, can’t you help me out? Back then, I really had difficulties, and if you still feel it’s not enough…”
With a “clang” sound, Su Wanwan violently threw the jewelry box onto the floor.
Then,
With a “rip” sound, she tore the check into pieces, throwing it forcefully into the sky.
The white scraps of paper fluttered down, and along with them, Lu Zixi’s face turned paler by the second.
“Miss Su, you…”
Zan Song, standing to one side, was also quite surprised.
A check for a million, plus this necklace worth four to five million, with an additional 5 million to be added later, was certainly not a small sum. This was the best solution they could think of after the incident happened, but could this young girl, not of a very big age, have such great appetites?
Just earlier, Zan Song thought Su Wanwan was pretending to be ignorant to extort more money, it turned out he guessed wrong.
Zan Song frowned deeply, wondering how to resolve the situation when… “Born but not raised, you’re a disgrace to motherhood!” Su Wanwan’s voice rang out.
She had to clench her hands tightly to suppress the urge to slap Lu Zixi.
She said word by word, “Since you didn’t want Ziyang at the start, now Ziyang is living well, he doesn’t need such an irresponsible mother like you! Nor does he need this lousy 50,000 yuan monthly alimony! And I, don’t need your hush money!”
Having said that, she turned around and left right away.
-Miss Su!” Lu Zixi wanted to chase after her but suddenly, her vision darkened, and she collapsed backwards.
“Zixi!” Zan Song rushed up to support her.
**
Su Wanwan stormed out of the office fuming.
“Su fellow student, is the conversation over? Su fellow student, Su fellow student?”
Despite calling several times, Su Wanwan, cold-faced, didn’t turn her head, just walked straight into the elevator.
The head teacher:”….”
Helpless.
If this happened in the past, she would have scolded her for disrespecting the teacher long ago, but ever since she found out she’s the eldest daughter-in-law of Huo Family, the wealthiest family in Nancheng…
Well, even if she acts high and mighty, he has to tolerate it.
**
It wasn’t until Su Wanwan came out of the elevator that she suddenly stopped. Then, she fiercely clenched her small fists in the air, scratching non-stop.
How furious!
Why be so impulsive?
The money from that check they gave you just now, and that necklace, you should have taken them first!
Take it to buy toys, snacks for Ziyang, anything!
Deal with other things later.
A full million there, you just tore it to pieces, are you a pig! Stupid pig! Su Wenwen was so angry that she looked up to the sky and howled,
“Ahhhhhh….”
“Su fellow student?”
A clear and gentle male voice suddenly came from behind.
Su Wanwan quickly closed her mouth and turned around to look.
She saw Di Chenghe standing on the steps behind her, seemingly just having come downstairs.
He was wearing a dark navy coat, his black jeans wrapping around his long legs, slightly tilting his head, he exuded a friendly elegance.
“What happened?” he asked, “Did something happen?
“Nothing.” Su Wanwan was embarrassed.
She didn’t know how much he had seen…
She could only nod respectfully at him, “Teacher, I’m going to class.” “Speak up if something is bothering you.” Di Chenghe spoke softly, full of concern, “I saw what happened at the forum last time. Even though the innocent have nothing to fear, you should have cleared things up sooner. Don’t keep things bottled up, it’s not good for your health..”
