Chapter 868: Extra: Chu Tianye (38)

Translator: Lordbluefire

Chu Tianye didn’t want to cause trouble for Su Yan.

He had encouraged Su Yan to participate in this program with the hope of letting Mother Su and Father Su see Su Yan’s shining qualities and recognize her as their daughter. That’s why he had pressured Mother Su into acknowledging Su Yan’s status as the Su family’s daughter.

However, he didn’t expect things to escalate to this point.

He looked at Su Yan. While he was contemplating how to persuade the two of them, he heard Su Yan speak, “Haven’t I already severed ties with the Su family long ago?”

Chu Tianye was taken aback, and Mother Su was stunned as well. They had both considered their previous words as spoken in anger, and Mother Su had publicly said those things to force Su Yan to return home.

However, they never expected that Su Yan would say such a thing in front of everyone.

Mother Su became furious. She glared at Su Yan and said, “Are you really going to cause a rift in the family just for this man? You’re even willing to forsake the parents who raised you for over twenty years? Su Yan, you’re unfilial!”

Su Yan lowered her gaze and replied calmly, “Yes, you can call me unfilial if you want. I’ve been unfilial since 1 was a child. With Su Qingyan, the obedient daughter, in the family, aren’t you content?”

She stared at Mother Su, no longer addressing her as “Madam Su.”

Mother Su had come here with the intention of causing a complete rupture, but she never expected Su Yan to remain so composed in public.

Mother Su’s anger surged. She said, “Alright, Su Yan, remember this, it’s not that you don’t want me as your mother; it’s that I don’t want you as my daughter anymore! I’m severing all ties with you!”

Mother Su shot a final glance at Chu Tianye and added, “You better pray that you never have to ask for my help in the future!”

After leaving these words behind, Mother Su turned and left. Once she was out of sight, she felt a lump in her chest. Despite the conflicts, she still had some lingering attachment to the daughter she had raised for over twenty years. Su Yan’s calm demeanor had caught her off guard.

However, when she thought of Chu Tianye’s parents visiting and the potential impact on the Su family’s reputation, she steeled herself.

She didn’t want Chu Tianye’s parents to recognize their relationship with Su Yan, which could undermine Su Qingyan and He Yongsheng’s engagement.

As for Su Yan, she believed that one day, Su Yan would come begging for her help. She would be waiting for that day.

Back in the room, Su Yan sat down and looked a bit desolate. Chu Tianye walked over and asked, “Feeling down?”

Su Yan shook her head. “I’ve experienced so much that i don’t feel sad anymore. I just feel a bit lonely.”

None of her family members understood her; they all favored her sister. Cutting ties with the Su family had relieved her of a significant burden, but it had also left her feeling empty. The absence of family affection made her feel lonely.

Chu Tianye sat beside her and held her hand. “It’s okay; you have me.”

He continued, “I’ve noticed that your sister has been targeting you, saying hurtful things. She must be jealous of you.”

Su Yan immediately smiled. “Jealous of me? For what?”

“Jealous that you’re more beautiful than her.”

Su Yan paused, then touched her own face. “Is that so? But everyone says Su Qingyan is prettier than me.”

Su Qingyan had an elegant and refined appearance, especially when she was dressed up. Su Yan, on the other hand, had a round face and a cute look.

Chu Tianye suggested, “If you don’t believe it, you can remove your makeup, and we’ll let everyone decide.”

Su Yan,
