Su Nian’an’s act of turning the accusation back on Su Nianxi completely stunned her.
She had never expected Su Nian’an to actually accuse her first. Clearly, she hadn’t taken the initiative to hit Su Nian’an. She had only verbally insulted her.
Yet the other girl had immediately gone crazy and slapped her twice.
“Dad, don’t listen to her nonsense. She was the one who hit me first,” Su Nianxi said aggrievedly.
“Did I really hit you first? I’m leaving after I get the money and coupons today. I’m going to follow the Gu family to the countryside. Why would I cause trouble for myself at a time like this? If you hadn’t provoked me, why would I hit you for no reason?
“The people in the Su family all favor you. If I hadn’t been pushed beyond my limit, why would I have hit you?”
Su Nian’an had always been very good with words. No matter what she said, she could make black sound white.
“Su Nian’an! Stop twisting things around! I have two huge slap marks on my face, while you’re completely unharmed. I don’t care. Today, I have to hit you back!”
Now that she had someone backing her up, Su Nianxi had already suppressed the fear she had felt toward Su Nian’an moments ago.
She was nothing more than an ignorant country girl who had grown up in the countryside, yet she actually dared to hit her.
Her parents had never hit her once in her entire life.
At this moment, Su Nianxi’s mind was filled with thoughts of how she would get revenge on Su Nian’an.
“No matter what, I’m still the biological daughter of the Su family. My biological parents raised you for so many years, so what right do you have to insult me like that?
“When you get right down to it, you simply look down on the Su family. Otherwise, why would you say that I’m not even as good as a dog in this family?
“You have to remember I’m carrying the Su family’s blood in my veins. When you say something like that, aren’t you also insulting the two people who are related to me by blood?”
Su Nian’an’s mouth was simply too sharp.
Su Nianxi swore that she really hadn’t meant it that way. But after Su Nian’an put it like that, it actually seemed to make quite a bit of sense.
“You… I didn’t mean that at all! When I said you weren’t even as good as a dog in the Su family, I was only talking about you. I wasn’t saying anything about Mom and Dad.”
Su Nianxi was stupid enough to admit it outright.
Su Nian’an couldn’t be bothered to argue with someone so thick-headed anymore. She simply turned to Su Aiguo.
“No matter what, I’m still your biological daughter, aren’t I? You said I’m not even as good as a dog in the Su family. In that case, I don’t think the Gu family would agree to let a dog marry into their family.
“Go ahead and beat me. Better yet, let the Gu family see that the person you’re sending to marry into their family is your own biological daughter, a girl who grew up in the countryside and whom you’ve casually beaten and cursed at.
“In the end, you simply can’t bear to let this fake daughter marry into the Gu family. But there’s another option. You can marry your precious daughter, Su Nianxi, into the Gu family instead.
“I’ll stay here in the Su family. From now on, you can beat me whenever you want and curse me whenever you want.”
When Su Nian’an was ruthless, she didn’t even spare herself. As long as she could achieve her goal, that was all that mattered.
The money wasn’t in her hands yet, so it wasn’t appropriate to completely fall out with the Su couple.
The moment Gu family was mentioned, the expression on Su Aiguo’s face finally changed.
“Xixi, apologize to your sister!”
Su Aiguo looked at Su Nianxi with a stern expression.
Su Nianxi’s eyes widened, her face filled with disbelief.
“I… I should apologize?”
She pointed at herself, her voice trembling slightly.
She was the one who had been slapped hard twice by Su Nian’an!
Even though Su Nianxi couldn’t see her own face right now, she could already feel that it must have swollen up like a pig’s head.
“Your sister is about to go down to the countryside. Why did you have to pick a fight with her at a time like this?”
Su Aiguo sighed.
Recently, Su Aiguo had gone to great lengths to prevent Su Nianxi from marrying into the Gu family and being dragged down to the countryside with them. After much effort, he had finally come up with the idea of having Su Nian’an marry in her place.
Everything had already been settled. They absolutely couldn’t afford to have any more trouble.
“I… I… I don’t want to talk to any of you anymore”
Su Nianxi had already suffered such a huge loss, yet she was still expected to apologize to Su Nian’an.
Dream on!
After saying that, Su Nianxi turned around and ran out of the kitchen.
Seeing this, Liu Cuilian was the first to chase after her.
Su Nianxi had been spoiled rotten since childhood, so naturally, she couldn’t bring herself to put aside her pride and apologize.
Su Aiguo seemed to have expected this outcome. He sighed, then walked over to Su Nian’an.
“Nian’an, don’t hold it against your sister. That’s just the kind of personality she has.”
It would have been better if he hadn’t said that.
The moment he did, Su Nian’an nearly rolled her eyes.
“Where’s the money?”
She ignored Su Aiguo’s excuses for Su Nianxi.
After all, in the novel, Su Nianxi was exactly the kind of green tea bitch who liked to secretly scheme against others.
And the Su couple seemed to have absolutely no bottom line when it came to Su Nianxi. No matter what she did, they always indulged her unconditionally.
So Su Nian’an had already lost her patience with the Su family.
Honestly, it was annoying. They were always making trouble for no reason.
Once she got the money, she would go find her “fiancé”!
“I’ll give you the money. But remember, you must sever ties with us.”
Su Aiguo spoke very seriously.
He was so eager to distance himself from the Gu family because of something that had happened that morning.
While he was out on the street, he had happened to run into an important figure. After Su Aiguo enthusiastically invited him to chat, the man had let slip a few things.
The general meaning was that the Gu family was currently at the center of the storm. Apparently, even a family that had been closely connected to the Gu family had been forced to go down to the countryside.
After hearing this news, Su Aiguo had been scared half to death.
What exactly counted as being “closely connected”?
Their two families were engaged. Did that count as being close?
At any rate, if they wanted to distance themselves from the Gu family now, their only hope was Su Nian’an.
“Fine, fine, fine. Give me the money and coupons. If you want me to write the severance agreement right now, I’ll happily do it.”
Su Nian’an agreed far too readily.
Su Aiguo was even afraid that she might change her mind.
“Then write it now. Once it’s written, I’ll give you the money.”
Su Aiguo’s face was cold.
Right now, he was the one holding the purse strings, so Su Nian’an decided to indulge him a little.
The two of them went to Su Aiguo’s study. Su Nian’an simply followed a template for a family-severance agreement that she found in a newspaper and wrote her own agreement.
“Done. Take a look.”
Su Nian’an handed the crookedly written severance agreement to Su Aiguo.
Su Aiguo took it and looked at it. His face immediately darkened.
As expected of someone who had grown up in the countryside she couldn’t even write properly.
Su Nian’an felt completely wronged.
The writing system of this era was mostly in traditional characters, which were incredibly difficult to write!
Besides, the original owner had grown up in the countryside and had never had the opportunity to receive much education or even properly learn to read and write.
Her maternal aunt and uncle had practically wanted her to spend all day doing the household chores. Where would she have had the time to go to school?
So considering all of that, there was no way Su Nian’an could afford to write too well, right?
