Su Xiu looked at Shen Yan in front of her, who seemed to be a completely different person from when she was in the Fu family.

Although Shen Yan was also generous and modest in the past, she was not assertive.

“Congratulations on winning the Oscar for Best Actress. You are really amazing,” Su Xiu praised sincerely. She took out a jewelry box from her bag and handed it to her. “This is a congratulatory gift.”

Just as Shen Yan was about to refuse it, she saw Su Xiu typing on her phone’s memo page.

Su Xiu: Just take it! It’s rare for Old Master Fu to be so generous.

Shen Yan held back her laughter. As she was typing on her phone, she pretended to say coldly, “Mrs Fu, there’s no need for a congratulatory gift. This matter has already passed.”

Shen Yan: Thank you, Auntie.

Su Xiu’s heart ached when she saw the word “auntie.” What a good child. It was a pity that A Hang was not fated to be with her.

“Shen Yan, this is just a small token of appreciation. Please accept it. You don’t have to feel burdened.” As Su Xiu spoke, she opened the box and handed it to Shen Yan. “It’s not a valuable thing either!”

Su Xiu: I chose the sapphire necklace deliberately. I remember that you liked sapphires.

Shen Yan looked at the necklace in the box and secretly gave Su Xiu a thumbs up. However, she said coldly on the surface, “Thank you, Mrs Fu. Then, I’ll accept it.”

Neither Su Xiu nor Shen Yan spoke, they were typing away on the memo.

Su Xiu: Old Master Fu urged me to come over. He said he wants you to be the daughter-in-law of the Fu family. Oh right, don’t go to the washroom.

Shen Yan raised her eyebrows and typed swiftly in response.

Shen Yan: Why?

However, Su Xiu did not want to expose Shen Yan to those dirty deeds.

Su Xiu: Be obedient.

After their food was served, Su Xiu looked at Shen Yan and took the initiative to say, “Shen Yan, I asked to meet you this time because I have something I want to talk to you about.”

Shen Yan knew that Su Xiu was about to start her show, and she followed along with her words. “Mrs Fu, what did you want to talk to me about?”

“Shen Yan, I know that A Hang didn’t treat you well in the past. I didn’t protect you well either as your mother-in-law. I’m to be blamed for my uselessness, but A Hang already knows his mistake. He wants to reconcile with you. Can you give him another chance?”

“A Hang isn’t good at expressing himself, but I can see that he didn’t marry you because of that incident back then. He still cares for you greatly.”

“I also know that apologizing is useless. It won’t erase the damage that has been done to you. However, can you give him a chance to turn over a new leaf?”

As Su Xiu spoke, she typed rapidly.

Su Xiu: Yanyan, your future should be decided by yourself!

Shen Yan’s heart ached upon seeing those words. Su Xiu would occasionally defend her when she was in the Fu family. However, there were many times when she did not want to make things difficult for Su Xiu, as she was too weak.

Shen Yan lowered her eyes calmly and picked up her chopsticks. She responded slowly, “Mrs Fu, let’s eat first!”

Su Xiu did not say anything. She was really unable to be as shameless as Old Master Fu.

She felt that if Fu Hang liked Shen Yan, then he should chase after her himself, and not just sit back and enjoy the fruits of her labor.

“Okay, let’s eat first.” Su Xiu hesitated for a long time before saying this.

Although they did not speak much during the meal, they still enjoyed it very much. If there were no wiretaps, the two of them would have probably started discussing the new season’s clothing and jewelry.

After eating, Shen Yan pointed at the wiretap under the table and said with a cold face, “Mrs Fu, the Fu family’s matters have nothing to do with me.”

“T-Then, can you give Fu Hang a chance?” Su Xiu continued to put on an act of retaining Shen Yan.

“Mrs. Fu, no one ever gave me a chance when I was in the Fu family.” As Shen Yan spoke, she typed quickly on her phone.

Shen Yan: Auntie, let’s meet if there’s a chance in the future. I’ll have to head back first!

When Shen Yan saw her nod, she got up and headed outside.. She put on a face full of displeasure, as she walked out of the private lounge.
