As night falls, the moonlight sprinkles like water in the quiet courtyard.

Liu Wenjin walked in the scattered moonlight and came to Su Yuchen's room quietly.

She knocked on the door gently with a polite smile on her face.

The door opened, revealing Su Yuchen's cold and beautiful face.

"Yuchen, it's so late, I hope I didn't disturb your rest?" Liu Wenjin said as she walked into the room and looked around with concern, "Is this room a little deserted? Do you want to buy something?"

Su Yuchen glanced at her calmly without saying anything. He just pointed to the tea table beside him and motioned her to sit down.

Liu Wenjin sat down at the tea table somewhat uncomfortably and began her greetings.

"Yuchen, you live alone in such a big house. I feel so sad for you." Liu Wenjin said, pretending to wipe her eyes. "You lost your mother when you were young, and now you are alone here, with no one to take care of you. I really can't let it go."

Su Yuchen picked up the teacup, took a sip, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.

She had long seen through Liu Wenjin's hypocrisy and calculations, but just didn't want to point them out. Now hearing what she said, she felt even more disgusted.

"Just say whatever you want to say." Su Yuchen put down the teacup, with a bit of impatience in his tone, "It's so late, you came here not just to ask about my well-being, right?"

Liu Wenjin was a little embarrassed by Su Yuchen's bluntness, but she quickly adjusted her mentality and continued her performance.

"Yuchen, you see, I'm old and I don't have any children." Liu Wenjin said, her eyes reddened. "I liked you the first time I saw you. I felt like you were my own daughter. So, I want to adopt you as my goddaughter, so that we can have someone to take care of each other in the future."

When Su Yuchen heard this, her face suddenly darkened. She didn't expect Liu Wenjin to make such a request. This was simply an insult to her.

"What do you mean by that?" Su Yuchen's tone was cold and sharp. "Although I am alone and helpless, I still have a mother. I will not recognize some random person as my mother. Please go back."

Liu Wenjin didn't expect Su Yuchen to reject her so directly, and her face immediately became embarrassed.

But she still didn't give up, and continued to persuade: "Yuchen, don't get me wrong. Auntie really likes you, and it's out of good intentions that she took you as her goddaughter. You are all alone in this world, isn't it nice to have someone to take care of you?"

"Good intentions?" Su Yuchen sneered, "I can't afford your kindness. You should keep it for yourself."

"If your mother knew about this, she wouldn't want you to be so stubborn."

Su Yuchen suddenly grabbed the teacup on the table and threw it hard at Liu Wenjin's forehead.

The teacup drew a beautiful arc in the air and then hit Liu Wenjin's forehead accurately. Suddenly, a big bump appeared on Liu Wenjin's forehead.

"Get out!" Su Yuchen roared, "I never want to see you again!"

Liu Wenjin was so frightened that she crawled out of the room.

While covering the big bump on her forehead, she secretly swore in her heart: She must avenge this!

Su Yuchen coldly watched her back disappear into the night, with a scornful smile on his lips.

She had known for a long time that Liu Wenjin had bad intentions, but she had never thought that she would be so shameless as to make such a request. Now that she had finally torn her face off, she no longer had to be polite to her in the future.

After this farce, Su Yuchen's room returned to its former tranquility.

She sat quietly in front of the window, watching the moonlight outside the window sprinkle on the earth like water, and an inexplicable emotion surged in her heart.

She knew that there were not many people in this world who were truly kind to her, and she had to be stronger and more independent to face her future life.

People like Liu Wenjin will only be passers-by and jokes in her life.

Chen Qiyu complained to Chen Shuyin with a puzzled look on her face: "Sister, how could Su Yuchen be a demon when she is so beautiful? I really can't understand how she could be the one who sent our whole family to hell?"

Chen Shuyin put down the milk bottle in her hand and looked at him with a frown: [Silly second brother, didn’t you see clearly what happened to Liu Mei? ]

Chen Qiyu shuddered when he heard this and subconsciously touched his neck. He thought of Liu Mei's tragic ending and felt a little scared.

"Then what do you think we should do?" Chen Qiyu asked anxiously, "Are we just going to watch her continue to be so arrogant?"

Chen Shuyin was silent for a while, then slowly transmitted the message: [We can't act rashly now. Haven't you noticed? Su Yuchen is not only very powerful now, but also has Chu Xuanhao protecting her. If we act rashly, I'm afraid she will be killed by Chu Xuanhao before we even meet her.]

Chen Qiyu couldn't help but feel frustrated when he heard this. He used to think that he was a great man, but now it seems that he is not worth mentioning in front of Su Yuchen and Chu Xuanhao.

"Then what should we do now?" Chen Qiyu asked helplessly.

【Wait.】 Chen Shuyin answered concisely.

After hearing what Chen Shuyin said, Chen Qiyu was still a little unwilling, but he also knew that this was the best way at the moment. He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Chen Qiyu nodded, "We will definitely find an opportunity."

In a luxurious room in the palace, Liu Wenjin stroked the bump on her forehead that had not yet subsided, and told Chen Tanyan about her previous experience with exaggeration.

Her words were full of grievance and anger, as if Su Yuchen was an unforgivable sinner.

"Your Majesty, please make the decision for me!" Liu Wenjin cried, "I went to recognize Su Yuchen as my goddaughter with good intentions, but not only did she refuse, she also threw a teacup at me. Look, the bump on my forehead hasn't gone away yet!"

Chen Tanyan sat on the armchair and listened to Liu Wenjin's crying with a sullen face.

He knew in his heart that Liu Wenjin was always a gossipmonger and that he couldn't trust everything she said. But Su Yuchen's use of a teacup to hit someone was indeed a bit excessive.

"Wenjin, don't cry yet." Chen Tanyan said in a deep voice, "Yuchen has been wandering outside for so many years and has suffered a lot. It's normal for her to have a bad temper. I will find a time to have a good talk with her and ask her to apologize to you."

Hearing Chen Tanyan say this, Liu Wenjin immediately stopped crying, and a cunning light flashed in her eyes.

She knew that as long as Chen Tanyan was willing to come forward, there would be a turning point in this matter.

"Your Majesty, you are truly wise and powerful!" Liu Wenjin complimented, "With you here, I believe Su Yuchen will realize his mistake."

Chen Tanyan frowned slightly. He didn't like Liu Wenjin's flattery, but he didn't show it. He waved his hand, signaling Liu Wenjin to leave.
