The impactful words that had been spoken made Su Yan pause for a moment. She looked at Chu Tianye in surprise. For some reason, in this instant, her icy heart felt a trace of warmth.
Her eyes slightly reddened, and she instinctively lowered her head to hide her emotions.
Chu Tianye didn’t notice Su Yan’s expression. He was focused on Su Yan’s mother.
He couldn’t comprehend why a mother would physically harm her own child. In his family, he and Chu Yu would occasionally get a playful kick from their father, but even when they were mischievous, their parents never laid a finger on them or Chu Xiaomeng.
They were daughters, so how could their situations be so different?
Moreover, hadn’t Su Yan done anything wrong? She just wanted to act…
Even though he had a strong love for money, mentioning it openly would probably invite ridicule. People had even joked to his face, calling him a reincarnated miser, and mocked his attachment to wealth…
At that time, he had conducted a profound self-reflection, feeling that with their family’s wealth, his behavior was indeed unbecoming.
Later, his father and mother showed understanding.
They believed that everyone had innate hobbies, and they wouldn’t force him to change. They just hoped that all the money he earned would be through legitimate means and could be used for meaningful purposes…
He had always felt that these were the actions of normal parents.
How could a mother slander her child’s interests like this?
Moreover, Su Yan’s mother’s demeanor didn’t resemble her daughter’s. Instead, she seemed more like an enemy.
Chu Tianye couldn’t comprehend it and had no intention of trying to understand it. He was only concerned about protecting Su Yan.
Upon hearing Chu Tianye’s words, Su Yan’s mother stared at him for a long time before sneering. She then turned to Su Yan and said, “So, this is your husband? Su Yan, take a good look at this man. Aside from being slightly good-looking, what else does he have? Can he provide you with a wealthy family?”
Su Yan responded, “I don’t need a wealthy family.”
Su Yan’s mother immediately retorted, “How old are you? Are you still so naive? Without money, what good can your family have? A poor couple has nothing but sorrow!”
Su Yan smiled, “I have money.”
Su Yan’s mother was taken aback.
Su Yan continued to look at her and said thoughtfully, “From childhood to now, which resources did the Su Family help me to secure?”
When she debuted, someone had anonymously posted on a forum that she was the Su family’s young miss. She didn’t want to deceive her fans but also didn’t want to admit it. Therefore, she remained silent.
However, The Su Family was angered by this. They were afraid that she, as the young miss of the Su family, would do something to disgrace them. Since then, they had started suppressing her.
Several good roles that she had successfully auditioned for were sabotaged by the Su Family once they found out. This was why she had remained lukewarm in her career all these years.
The Su Family not only didn’t help her but also restricted her development.
Su Yan’s mother frowned, “I’ve said it before, people from the Su family shouldn’t act or become entertainers! If you insist on acting, don’t blame the Su family for disregarding our relationship!”
Su Yan coldly laughed, “I never expected you to admit it.”
Mother Su suddenly became furious, “Alright, fine! Then don’t rely on us. I hope you won’t regret it in the future! Don’t come begging us when the time comes!”
Su Yan sneered, “Rest assured, even if I have to beg for food, even if I starve to death, I won’t darken the Su family’s doorstep.”
Mother Su was left speechless.
Taking a deep breath to suppress her anger, Mother Su then turned to Chu Tianye, “You’d better do what you say. And as for this man, our Su family will never acknowledge him as our son-in-law!”
After saying that, Mother Su left.
After she had left, Chu Tianye looked at Su Yan once again.
Su Yan’s expression was wooden, but Chu Tianye could still sense the deep sadness in her heart.
For a moment, he didn’t know what to say. He walked over to her and suddenly asked, “Would you like to eat spicy hot pot?”
Su Yan paused.
Chu Tianye took out his phone and ordered some takeout, making sure to request it to be extra spicy, and said, “Let’s enjoy a hearty meal, and even if we cry from the spiciness, there’s no shame in it.”
Su Yan heard this and had a strange sense of familiarity.. She looked at Chu Tianye and suddenly asked, “Have we met somewhere before?”
