And at this moment, Zhao Xingchen's eyes saw her through the crowd, and for a moment, the air seemed to stop.
Su Yi gave a silent smile.
Zhao Xingchen narrowed her eyes, then watched her walk into the jewelry store she was promoting. She covered her face as if she was a little embarrassed, not wanting Su Yi to see her.
As soon as Su Yi and the old man entered, the clerk immediately greeted them warmly. They also picked out several pieces of jewelry, paid, and left. When they left, Zhao Xingchen at the door had disappeared. Seeing that the promotion had been completed, she left.
Su Yi didn't think about it and pushed the old man to the next house.
But just a few steps out of the door, a red light rushed over and stopped in front of Su Yi.
Zhao Xingchen wore a pair of ten-centimeter high heels, so at this moment, she was half a head taller than Su Yi. She lowered her head and looked down at Su Yi, as if she had gone through an inner struggle. The anger in her eyes gradually dissipated. She looked at her and said, "Su Yi."
Su Yi glanced at Grandpa and knew that Zhao Xingchen had something to say, so he handed the wheelchair handle to the nurse and said, "Take Grandpa to the next house first, I'll come later."
"Okay." The two caregivers pushed Mr. Lu away.
Su Yi and Zhao Xingchen usually smiled slowly, "Do you have something to tell me?"
"Can you let me see Xiao Xiao?"
"What? Do you remember to apologize now?" The reason why Zhao Xingchen ended up in this situation today was entirely because she was jealous of Xiao Xiao. She always made things difficult for Xiao on the set, and later revealed that Xiao had an illegitimate child, which angered Ji Chensi, so he banned her completely. He also revealed that she was always hiring internet trolls to promote herself, and coupled with the fact that she had seduced Dong Xinyu, who had a fiancée, her reputation is now in a slump, and no matter how she tries to whitewash it, it will always be black.
"I have something to say to her." Zhao Xingchen lowered his head, as if he was very tired, and said, "After I was banned, my property was swindled away by my agent and assistant. I have nothing now, not even a place to live..."
"And then?" Who told her to always bully her agent and assistant? Now everyone is against her. If she loses power, everyone will desert her.
"I just hope Xiao Xiao can help me get back the property that belongs to me."
"Why?" Su Yi raised his eyebrows. "You hurt people when you wanted to. Now that you know you are in trouble, you want to ask others to help you get your property back? Why don't you think about it before you hurt or bully others?"
Zhao Xingchen bit his lower lip and said, "I know I hurt her, but I didn't kill her. But now if I have nothing, it's really over."
"If the rumor about Xiao Xiao having an illegitimate child had been true and no one had helped her deal with it, she would have been ruined by you. You would have ended up like this because of your own actions. What does it have to do with Xiao? Besides, don't you have a good friend named Si Yajie? Isn't she capable? Why don't you ask her to help you?"
Speaking of Si Yajie, Zhao Xingchen felt so angry that his teeth ached. He suppressed the hatred in his heart and said, "She is not that kind. Everything she did was just to use me. Now I have no value to use. I can't even see her. Last time I went to the company to find her, she actually asked the security guard to carry me out. When I went to her house to find her, she actually called the police and said I broke into a famous house. I really have no other choice now..."
"Then it's no use telling me. We can't help you. Oh, no, we won't help you."
Zhao Xingchen was startled, and looked at Su Yi with extremely terrified eyes. She suddenly realized that no one in this world would help her anymore. She felt desperate. She said with a gloomy face: "I admit that I was wrong in the past, and I regret it now. I have fallen to this point, and it is difficult to live every day. I am already 27 years old this year, and my future is bleak. Su Yi, if this continues, I may really be finished..."
"What does that have to do with me?"
"I know it's none of your business, so I just want to meet Xiao Xiao. Can you please be kind to me once, considering that we were in the same school before?"
"It's no use for you to meet her. Ji Chensi won't agree."
"I just want to get my property back!" Zhao Xingchen emphasized. As long as she got those properties back, she would at least have endless money to spend. She would be worry-free even if she became a parasite in this life. She wouldn't have to run around here and there every day like she does now, fearing that she would not have enough food to eat or pay the rent.
"Your property is with your agent and assistant. It's useless for you to look for Xiao Xiao. You should go to court."
Zhao Xingchen's face turned pale, and he said patiently, "In the final analysis, you just don't want to help me, right?"
"Is there any need to ask?" Su Yi laughed, his eyes very intriguing.
Zhao Xingchen suddenly froze there, like a sculpture, motionless.
"Go find whoever took your money. It's useless to come to us. We can't help you. Goodbye." Su Yi smiled and turned around.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Xingchen's body began to tremble violently. Then, with a fierce look in his eyes, he rushed forward and was about to pull Su Yi's hair.
Su Yi had expected that she would have this trick. It was always like this, she liked to do something behind people's backs. She turned around and kicked Zhao Xingchen in the stomach, causing her to fall heavily to the ground. Then her eyes rolled back and she fainted.
You want to fight with only this little ability
Su Yi snorted coldly and called the police station. "Hello, is this the police station? I want to report a case. If a woman suddenly rushes over and beats a pregnant woman, what crime can I accuse her of?"
Since she is so ignorant, let's send her to prison to keep her company with Lin Huijin, so that she doesn't have to find trouble every day.
Back at the jewelry store, Mr. Lu asked her, "Who was that person just now? Why did he look for you?"
Su Yi came over, smiled slightly, and said naturally, "No one, Grandpa, did you pick anything you like?"
"Yes, I picked these ones, take a look."
Su Yi took a look at it and said softly, "Grandpa's sunshine is so good, these ones are all good-looking."
They visited several stores one after another and only returned after their bags were full.

In the evening, someone rang the doorbell again.
Su Yi opened the door and saw the tall and handsome Lan Fuchu. He raised his eyebrows and smiled, "You're here?"
"Yeah." Lan Fuchu looked at her, feeling a little nostalgic and affectionate. He walked in and held her hand. "Is mom home?"
"No, she went out to see a movie with Uncle Zhenghua tonight."
"What about Grandpa? How is your dowry going?"
"We bought about dozens of pieces of jewelry, but it was still not enough. Grandpa said he wanted to buy 99 pieces for mom to make up for the regret of that year." As they were talking, the two walked to grandpa's room.
Before entering, Su Yi raised his eyebrows and glanced at the two people's clasped hands, meaning: let go.
But Lan Fuchu pretended not to hear it, and asked with a half-smile: "What's wrong? Blinking? Are you trying to seduce me?"
"..." Su Yi always felt that Lan Fuchu's train of thought was very strange. She pursed her lips and said, "I'm asking you to let go. Otherwise, it would be so embarrassing if Grandpa saw it later."
"Why would she do that? My granddaughter is so happy and has such a good husband. What's there to be embarrassed about?" The deep voice was gentle and charming.
Su Yi said: "No, Grandpa..."
Before the word "home" fell, Lan Fuchu had already opened the door, pulled Su Yi in, and politely called out, "Grandpa."
"Fu Chu, come here, come to grandpa." Old Master Lu called him from inside the house.
Two people went over.
There was a pile of jewellery in front of Mr. Lu. He asked Lan Fuchu with a smile, "Fuchu, come here and show me. Are these jewellery that I picked out good?"
"Okay." Lan Fuchu responded, walked over, stood next to Master Lu, looked around, and said, "They all look good. Grandpa has a good eye."
Mr. Lu stroked his beard with satisfaction and said, "I said it before. Although I am old, my heart is still young. The jewelry I picked out is still of high quality and taste."
"Grandpa is right." Su Yi on the side helped Lan Fuchu to coax the old man.
Mr. Lu was very happy. He took Lan Fuchu's hand, took out a pocket watch he had collected for many years, put it in Lan Fuchu's palm, and said earnestly: "Come here, Grandpa doesn't have any other gift for you, so I'll give you this pocket watch that I carry with me."
Lan Fuchu subconsciously tried to refuse.
Mr. Lu immediately grabbed his hand, glared at him, and said fiercely: "Hey! How can I take back what I gave you? Take it. From now on, you are my grandson-in-law."
Lan Fuchu liked to hear the words "grandson-in-law". She smiled and said sincerely, "Thank you, Grandpa."
