222: Su Yang is dead, and the only one left in this world is...Su Fan

Night, inside the apartment.

Looking at Su Fan doing a handstand on the sofa, Mu Xiaowan looked embarrassed, forcing a smile.

“Heh heh, I really appreciate it!”

“No need to thank me, as long as it helps you.”

As a straight man, Su Fan smiled and waved his hand, completely missing the helplessness in Mu Xiaowan's tone.

Just as the two were about to continue talking... Mu Xiaowan suddenly felt a wave of nausea, covered her mouth, and rushed into the restroom.

Looking at her stumbling back, Su Fan stood frozen.

Only then did he remember... Mu Xiaowan was still pregnant with Huo Qichen's child, and his mood instantly became incredibly complex.

At the same time, he really wanted to understand the whole story... After all, at the Celebration Banquet, Huo Qichen and she didn't act like a real couple at all.

Moreover, the difference in their social status was quite large. What exactly happened to bring two people from different classes together, to the point of having a child... *Flush!*

One minute later.

From the restroom, the sound of a toilet flushing could be heard... “Sorry, Mr. Su. I... I couldn't help it just now, I felt a bit unwell.”

Mu Xiaowan walked out of the restroom, saw Su Fan staring blankly at her, and her face flushed, making her feel even more flustered and awkward.

“Oh... oh, it's nothing. This is normal morning sickness; you'll be fine after some rest.”

Su Fan's expression was as usual. He gestured for Mu Xiaowan to come and sit down, and began to subtly inquire about the child.

“May I be so bold as to ask, what is your relationship with Huo Qichen?”

“I see you seem very eager to escape him? Don't worry, if you need any help, you can always tell me.”

“As you can see, I have the ability to help you. As for my reason for helping you...”

“To be honest, you look a bit like my ex-girlfriend, but she and I... sigh, the past is too painful to recall!”

“...”

Su Fan had no intention of revealing his identity.

But he was worried that being too enthusiastic would make Mu Xiaowan overthink, assuming he had ulterior motives.

So, he had a sudden idea and concocted a vague, dramatic reason.

Uh (⊙o⊙)... looks like his ex-girlfriend?

The reason this person is helping me is actually that ridiculous???

Mu Xiaowan couldn't help but be utterly surprised.

She had indeed been suspicious, not understanding why this important figure, Su Fan, would help her repeatedly when they had just met.

Now, although his reason was absurd, there didn't seem to be any other better explanation.

After all, what could a prominent figure like Su Fan, whom even the Huo Family feared, possibly want from her?!

Her body?

Mu Xiaowan gave a self-deprecating smile; she still had some self-awareness.

With Su Fan's status, what kind of woman couldn't he get?

Not to mention, the woman accompanying Su Fan tonight made Mu Xiaowan feel a bit inferior in comparison.

So, his reason was actually somewhat plausible. Moreover, to prevent Huo Qichen from bothering her again...

No matter what, she had to get on good terms with Su Fan and use his deterrent power to escape the Huo Family's control.

“Mr. Su is so outstanding; you deserve a better woman.”

“As for your ex-girlfriend, no matter why she broke up with you, I believe she will definitely regret it in the future...”

Listening to Mu Xiaowan's flattery, Su Fan's eyes were complex, and he murmured:

“Perhaps...”

For a moment, Mu Xiaowan also froze.

She could vaguely see the shadow of that scoundrel in Su Fan's eyes and brows... “Mr. Su! To be honest, you also look a bit like my ex-boyfriend!”

“But he and I... sigh, the past is too painful to recall!”

Hearing this, Su Fan's pupils suddenly constricted, and his heart trembled.

Could she be referring to... “That scoundrel was my first love, a college classmate named Su Yang.”

“Back then, I truly loved him very, very much. But he was an animal, always making grand vows to me, putting on a show of deep affection.”

“Behind my back, he was a complete scumbag. After tricking me into bed...”

“He even said he'd come back to marry me and give me a surprise. But who knew he'd disappear forever? Scumbag, animal, beast, a modern-day Chen Shimei...”

“I trusted him so much, and my deep affection was wasted. Men surnamed Su are all no good!!!”

“...”

Mu Xiaowan recalled her unforgettable first love from back then, a pain that was still vivid in her memory.

She lost control for a moment, gritting her teeth in hatred. Overcome with emotion, she openly cursed her ex-boyfriend Su Yang.

[I'm sorry...]

A deep sense of guilt rose in Su Fan's heart.

He wasn't angry because of Mu Xiaowan's furious cursing.

Because he indeed didn't keep his promise; he was a liar who took advantage of a girl and then disappeared.

Even if there were other hidden reasons, it still didn't change the fact that he had hurt Mu Xiaowan.

He was the one in the wrong, not his former pure love.

So, in this encounter, he would do everything in his power to compensate the girl and help her achieve her wishes.

Finally, after an unknown amount of time, Mu Xiaowan finished cursing to her heart's content, feeling completely refreshed.

But after calming down, Σ(☉▽☉"a) she felt like a complete idiot.

What was I just doing? | _・)

Barbie Q'd (ÒωÓױ)!!!

Damn it, it's all that bastard Su Yang's fault!!!

He made me lose control of my emotions like that in front of an important person, and even say things like 'men surnamed Su are all no good'...

Su Fan, Su Yang?!

How could their names be such a coincidence?

Only one character different. Su Fan wouldn't be angry, would he? Thinking I was cursing him!

I'm doomed, I'm doomed. I was still hoping he'd help me deal with the Huo Family's matters.

Now I've messed everything up, boo hoo hoo...

At this moment, Mu Xiaowan was panicking intensely.

Seeing her suddenly fall silent, Su Fan, with a complex expression, made a final summary.

“You're right!”

“Men surnamed Su are all no good. Stay away from men surnamed Su in the future, or you'll become unhappy.”

And these words, falling into Mu Xiaowan's ears, instantly made her legs weak.

She thought Su Fan was implying something, and that he was actually furious inside.

Hiss~~~

Indeed!!! ┌(.Д.)┐

Su Fan is being sarcastic; he's clearly displeased...

I'm finished, I'm finished! SOS!

He's such a powerful martial arts master; he wouldn't get angry and kill me with a big slap, would he???

Seeing that Mu Xiaowan's expression was a bit off, Su Fan, after some thought, suddenly understood and couldn't help but chuckle wryly.

Then, with a serious expression, he comforted her: “You don't need to be nervous, I'm not angry.”

“The fault isn't yours in this matter, but Su Yang's... You cursed well, you cursed correctly, he deserves it!”

“If this can help you let go of the past, then curse him more often in the future...”

Ah... this?!

So tolerant, huh...

Mu Xiaowan slowly looked up, gazing at Su Fan with some surprise.

A gentle, encouraging smile, firm eyes, an aloof and unrestrained demeanor... *Thump thump thump—*

Mu Xiaowan inexplicably blushed, and her gaze shifted uncomfortably.

She didn't know why, but his appearance was clearly unremarkable, not at all the handsome man she preferred.

Yet, she had experienced a momentary acceleration of her heartbeat...

Calm down, calm down.

He and I are from two different worlds; don't fantasize.

And ever since I met that scumbag Su Yang... I've long stopped believing in love, and I swore never to fall for any man again.

Even if Su Fan is a million times better than that scumbag Su Yang, I still have to... seal my heart and love!!!

Mu Xiaowan was very rational. She quickly adjusted her mindset, her expression becoming serious, and she brought up the main topic.

“Mr. Su, regarding Huo Qichen's matter, I want you to help me...”

“(Ten thousand words omitted here)...”

Listening to Mu Xiaowan's narration, Su Fan's expression changed repeatedly.

He never expected... her experience to be so... melodramatic.

Entering the wrong room, getting into the wrong bed, encountering a domineering CEO who falls in love with me, accidental pregnancy, marriage first then love...

How could this dramatic plot be so similar to the novel plots he read as a child... the story of a male and female lead meeting and falling in love?!

However, ridiculous as it was, Su Fan still breathed a sigh of relief.

It was good that Mu Xiaowan had no connection with the Huo Family.

Otherwise, he would be caught between a rock and a hard place, making it very difficult to deal with... Now that he knew they had no connection, and Mu Xiaowan even disliked the Huo Family, he could confidently act against them...

“I understand the general situation. I promise you that the Huo Family will no longer disturb your life.”

Su Fan was concise, his tone filled with absolute confidence.

Of course... the Huo Family had already been destroyed by him, so how could they bother Mu Xiaowan?

“Actually, the Huo Family's matter is easy to handle! It's the child in your belly that's the problem...”

Listening to Su Fan's hesitant words, Mu Xiaowan looked down and touched her still-flat belly, her expression complex.

There was a new little life in her belly now... But this child... shouldn't have come into this world, should it?!

So, should she abort it? But her body...

If it were before, Mu Xiaowan would have chosen to abort the fetus without hesitation.

But as the days passed, perhaps due to the mother-child bond, Mu Xiaowan seemed to occasionally sense the little life in her belly.

At night, when she slept, she would even dream of scenes of playing and laughing with the child... “If you don't want to abort the child, then give birth to it.”

“Of course, if you choose to abort, I will also support you. As long as you don't regret your choice!”

Perhaps he saw Mu Xiaowan's internal struggle.

Su Fan remained silent for a moment, then suppressed his emotions and spoke.

His feelings for Mu Xiaowan now were mostly deep guilt, with a good deal of regret for the past.

As for so-called love... honestly, time can wear away everything, including once-sworn love.

It's been 5 years; no one knows how he's lived these 5 years... He has now decided to cut ties with the past. The former... Su Yang, is dead.

He is Su Fan now!!!

After avenging the blood feud and ensuring his little sister's lifelong happiness and well-being, Su Fan would choose to leave silently, embarking alone on the path of pursuing the ultimate in martial arts...

As for Mu Xiaowan, Su Fan would do his best to give her the greatest compensation.

However, rekindling their old flame... he had never considered it... Perhaps Mu Xiaowan was right; he was a scumbag, a modern-day Chen Shimei...

“What? Give birth to it?”

Mu Xiaowan couldn't believe her ears.

Su Fan actually didn't object to her giving birth to the child?

She had thought that for such an unexpected child, anyone would definitely tell her to abort it?!

Then she smiled bitterly and shook her head, saying:

“This child isn't suitable to be born; I can't afford to raise it at all.”

“If you want to give birth, I will see it through and give you enough wealth to ensure you and your child live a life of comfort and abundance forever.”

Mu Xiaowan's eyes widened; she thought she had misheard.

Su Fan's words... was he planning to raise her child for her? No, raise both mother and child?

Hiss~~~

Could it be... he's interested in me? It shouldn't be!

But besides this reason, there's no way to explain his motive...

However, Mu Xiaowan was still very clear-headed, knowing that once this child was born, she would be burdened by it for the rest of her life and would never be able to find happiness again.

“I'm still young. With a child, I won't be able to marry again.”

“After all, blood relation is the bond of parent-child relationships.”

“With a child, few men would look at a 'withered flower' like me, let alone raise another man's child...”

“...”

Hearing the worry in Mu Xiaowan's words, Su Fan didn't think too much of it.

Seeing that she seemed to really want to have the child, he directly used some recent internet memes he'd learned to comfort Mu Xiaowan, telling her not to worry.

“Actually, blood relation isn't that important; it's enough if the child looks a bit like you.”

“This isn't your fault; you're just a poor victim.”

“And you've suffered so much giving birth. A man who truly loves you will understand you and won't only care if the child is his own.”

“If he really cares that much, it means he doesn't love you enough; he's a scumbag.”

“...”

Hmm?

Something seems off here???

As Su Fan spoke, the corner of his mouth twitched.

He felt like he had been in the mountains for too long and couldn't quite understand modern people's views on love anymore.

As for Mu Xiaowan, she was even more stunned.

If these words came from a woman's mouth, she would undoubtedly be labeled a 'green tea bitch.'

But coming from a man's mouth, it was truly a shock to one's worldview!!!

“Cough cough...”

“Sorry, what I just said was a bit problematic; just ignore it!”

“Anyway, no matter what decision you make, I will support you.”

Noticing Mu Xiaowan's strange gaze, Su Fan felt incredibly awkward and quickly explained a few sentences.

“It's okay... you're doing it for my own good...”

“Thank you, but... this child cannot stay. Its existence is a mistake.”

Speaking of this, Mu Xiaowan's expression became serious.

She touched her belly, took a deep breath, and made a decision in her heart.

“Tomorrow, I'm going to the hospital to abort him.”

“Okay, I also happen to be going to the hospital tomorrow. I'll accompany you then...”

Seeing Mu Xiaowan make her decision, Su Fan didn't say any more unnecessary words.

Just as he had said before, no matter what decision Mu Xiaowan made, he would fully support her...
