On the day of his whirlwind wedding, the heir to a wealthy family stood up!

In the quiet carriage, Su Chenxi felt gloomy. The forced smile on her stepfather Jiang Liguo's face when he left was still lingering in her mind. She knew that the kindness her stepfather showed her tonight was all an act.

This feeling is very uncomfortable. The Jiang family forced her to marry, and now they think she stole something from the Jiang family. What do they want?

Will her mother have a good life in the Jiang family? From a young age, her mother tried her best to avoid her seeing her stepfather, partly to avoid suspicion, and partly because her mother was always trying to maintain her situation.

Therefore, she didn't have much of an impression of Jiang Liguo, but she knew that he wasn't as gentle and refined as he appeared; in fact, he wasn't easy to get along with.

Now that she has seized Jiang Yao's marriage opportunity, it's more like she's gotten a huge advantage from the Jiang family, so Jiang Liguo will definitely dislike her even more.

"Didn't you tell your mom that we're going to have a wedding ceremony?" Shen Yanchuan asked her curiously.

Su Chenxi sighed and shook her head, saying, "I haven't had a chance to say it yet."

"Are you afraid of your stepfather?" Shen Yanchuan turned his head and looked at him.

Su Chenxi had indeed been afraid of Jiang Liguo since she was a child. He was like a mountain, and whenever they were in the same room, he would make her feel suffocated.

“He has always been my stepfather, the one who raised me, and I respect him,” Su Chenxi said.

Shen Yanchuan stopped in front of the traffic light, turned his head to look at him, and a look of heartache flashed in his eyes.

"Second Young Master, if Jiang Yao hadn't cared about your lameness and had married you, would you have treated her the way you treated me?" Su Chenxi asked, voicing her curiosity.

Shen Yanchuan said at the dinner table today that he was deeply moved because Jiang Yao married him despite his leg disability. He wondered if he would have treated Jiang Yao the same way if she had been forced to marry him.

Shen Yanchuan's expression froze slightly, then a hint of mockery flashed in his eyes, "If I marry Jiang Yao, can you finally live happily ever after with that person from the Gu family? Are you trying to rearrange your fate?"

Su Chenxi's beautiful eyes widened slightly, and she choked. What was he thinking?

Su Chenxi took a deep breath and explained, "What I mean is, if Jiang Yao married you, wouldn't you be moved? Would you like her, sleep with her, kiss her, carry her on your back, trust her unconditionally, and even give her a wedding worth billions?"

These are all things he did to her. If it were Jiang Yao, would he still do the same things?

Shen Yanchuan stepped on the gas, and the car moved forward steadily. He actually squinted his eyes and thought for a moment before answering, "No."

Su Chenxi blinked and asked curiously, "Why not?"

"I just don't know, there's no reason why," the man replied casually as he drove the car with an air of elegance.

"Just tell me one reason!" Su Chenxi asked again, unwilling to give up.

Seeing that she insisted on a reason, Shen Yanchuan turned his head and glanced at her, "She is not you."

Su Chenxi blinked, her mind a little blank. What kind of answer was that?

"Do you think I'd marry just anyone? If it wasn't someone I liked, I'd reject her at first sight and wouldn't even register the marriage," Shen Yanchuan added.

Su Chenxi reached out and touched her face. So, she got this man to marry her because of her looks? And he's a looks-obsessed guy?

"So, do you think I have a face that you find pleasing to the eye?" Su Chenxi asked, suppressing a laugh.

Shen Yanchuan stepped on the brake and stopped at a traffic light. He turned to look at the girl in the passenger seat, a gentle tenderness welling up in his eyes. He reached out and ruffled her hair.

This feeling of wanting to touch her anytime, anywhere isn't something every woman can evoke.

It seemed that only this woman had achieved this, like a kitten that was attractive enough to him. Whenever he saw her, he wanted to pet her, kiss her, and even possess her, not letting anyone else touch her.

A large hand gently rubbed Su Chenxi's head, and she, like a kitten that didn't like being touched, raised her hand to push his hand away, weakly resisting, "Don't touch me."

Shen Yanchuan smiled at her, "If you won't let me touch you, who do you want to touch you?"

In Su Chenxi's eyes, he was like a large wolfhound that didn't know its own strength, and his grip was very rough.

"I won't let anyone touch me." Su Chenxi raised her eyebrows and combed her messy hair.

Seeing the green light, the man withdrew his hand and continued driving, a smile playing on his lips. "Then I'll try again when we get home."

Su Chenxi glanced at him helplessly, then continued to lose herself in her own thoughts.

Half an hour later, Su Chenxi arrived at the villa. She greeted her grandmother in the living room and went upstairs. Just as she closed the door, her phone rang. Jiang Yao had sent her a message: "Su Chenxi, my dad hit my mom. It's all because of you. You need to give me back the identity that belongs to me right now."

Then, a photo was sent. The mother was curled up on the sofa on the balcony. Under the light, a handprint was clearly visible on one side of her face. She had really been hit.

Su Chenxi felt a sharp pain in her chest and her eyes reddened. Her mother had been beaten?

"Yaoyao, what happened?" Su Chenxi quickly sent a message to Jiang Yao. Although they didn't like each other, they shared the same mother, and she believed that Jiang Yao would also feel sorry for her mother.

Just then, Jiang Yao called, and Su Chenxi quickly answered, "Hello."

"You still have the nerve to care about Mom? Do you know why Dad beats Mom? It's because of you, Su Chenxi. Only if you divorce and let me marry Shen Yanchuan will Dad be happy and Mom won't have to suffer. Otherwise, whenever Dad thinks about your status as a bastard, he will hate Mom for her shameless behavior back then."

"Jiang Yao, shut up! She's your mother too. How can you say that about her?" Su Chenxi's tears rolled down her cheeks, her heart aching as if it were being torn apart.

"Your existence is an undeniable fact. If Mom hadn't given birth to you, things would be so much better. My dad would love and cherish her. But why were you born? You made Mom look down on by my dad. Now, you've taken my place. Do you think my dad feels good about that?" Jiang Yao cursed viciously on the other end of the line.

"Then what do you want me to do? How can I resolve all of this?" Su Chenxi sat down on the sofa in anguish, tears streaming down her face. Her birth had brought misfortune to her mother, and she felt guilty and remorseful.

"It's very simple. As long as you divorce Shen Yanchuan and let me marry him, this matter can be resolved. Otherwise, my dad will never love my mom again in his life. Su Chenxi, if you really love your mom, then sacrifice your happiness for her happiness." After saying that, Jiang Yao hung up the phone.

Su Chenxi opened her phone and looked at the photos of her mother's swollen face. Her heart ached as if it were being cut by a knife.

Jiang Liguo and his mother are husband and wife. As long as they are not divorced, Jiang Liguo can abuse his mother or treat her coldly in their marital relationship. His mother has worked for the Jiang family for half her life and is no longer able to work.

Currently, there are only two solutions: one is for her mother to divorce Jiang Liguo so she can support her mother for the rest of her life; the other is for her to divorce Shen Yanchuan so Jiang Yao can marry into the family, which would extinguish Jiang Liguo's resentment.
