On the day of his whirlwind wedding, the heir to a wealthy family stood up!
Chapter 86 Settling Mother
"No matter how incompetent I am, I will never let my mother live a hard life. Jiang Yao, if Mom knew about your attitude, it would break her heart," Su Chenxi said angrily.
Jiang Yao said angrily on the other end of the line, "Su Chenxi, you have no right to criticize me. I am my father's daughter. If Mom can't go on living like this, how can you blame me? Mom's suffering was caused by you from beginning to end."
Su Chenxi didn't want to talk to her anymore. "Fine, you don't need to take responsibility for Mom's matter. I will."
After saying that, Su Chenxi hung up Jiang Yao's phone and dialed her mother's number.
After ringing for more than ten seconds, I finally heard my mother's tired voice on the other end, "Hello, Chenxi."
"Mom, I know everything. Where are you now? I'm coming to pick you up and take you home," Su Chenxi asked gently.
"Mom is resting in the park now. It's okay, Mom will find a house."
"Mom, let me take care of you at this time!" Su Chenxi said. She could turn the study into a guest room so that her mother would have a place to stay.
"Okay! Give me your address, I'll take a taxi over," Su Meifen said wearily.
"Mom, I'm here to pick you up." Su Chenxi said and hung up the phone, then turned around and saw a man standing outside the door.
It seemed he had overheard her entire phone call. Su Chenxi sighed and said, "My mother and Jiang Liguo are divorced. She chose to leave with nothing. From now on, I will take care of her."
Shen Yanchuan said to her, "I have a nice apartment in the city center. Why don't you bring your mother there? It's more spacious there."
Su Chenxi was taken aback, and quickly shook her head, saying, "No, I can't..."
"Can't what?"
“I don’t need to occupy your house,” Su Chenxi replied.
"Between husband and wife, what's yours is mine, and what's mine is yours, isn't it?" Shen Yanchuan said irritably.
Thinking about her impending divorce from him in a year, Su Chenxi decided to avoid bothering him whenever possible.
"How about this? We'll move into your new house, and I'll let my mom stay in this small apartment," Su Chenxi suggested.
Shen Yanchuan's eyes narrowed. Was this girl being so distant with him because she really planned to divorce him in a year? Was she drawing a line in the sand beforehand?
Shen Yanchuan was still considering when Su Chenxi wrapped her arms around his waist and said coquettishly, "Promise me! I'll let my mom live in the apartment, and I'll go live in your apartment with you."
Shen Yanchuan is easy to coax after all. Where he lives is not important to him. What matters is that he wants to be with her.
“Okay! Then you take care of your mom first, I’ll go tidy up the new apartment,” Shen Yanchuan said.
“Okay, then you can leave first. My mom just got divorced and she's not in a good mood. I need to keep her company. If you stay here, it will make her uncomfortable,” Su Chenxi arranged.
Shen Yanchuan nodded; he would leave.
Su Chenxi saw her mother in the park. It was as if she had aged several years overnight. She was usually a person who paid attention to her appearance and dressing up, but now she looked disheveled as if she had been kicked out of her home.
"Mom, I've come to pick you up." Su Chenxi walked to her side and called her gently.
Looking at her eldest daughter, Su Meifen suddenly felt a surge of grievance, and tears streamed down her face. Being divorced at her age had indeed made her lose the courage to live and the strength to live on.
Su Chenxi's eyes also reddened, and she reached out to hug her, saying, "Mom, it's okay. I'll take care of you from now on."
In Su Chenxi's mind, divorce meant good things for her mother; otherwise, if she continued to entangle herself with Jiang Liguo, her mother would only suffer more.
“Chenxi, Yaoyao has gone to live with her father, so it’s time for me to start a new life.”
"Mom, don't worry! I will work hard, everything will be alright," Su Chenxi encouraged.
She brought her mother back home, and the traces of Shen Yanchuan's life there disappeared. Before leaving, the man had even cleaned her house very thoroughly.
"Mom, you can live in this little home for now! It's a well-established community with a farmers market, supermarket, and plaza nearby. It's a great place to live," Su Chenxi explained.
Su Meifen nodded, looking at her with heartache, "Chenxi, you've had a hard time all these years."
Su Meifen had indeed neglected this daughter in the past, and at the same time, she had resented her because many of her grievances came from this daughter. Now she felt very guilty.
In the afternoon, Su Chenxi bought a new bed and converted the study into a second bedroom. After some arranging, the guest room looked very cozy.
In the evening, Su Chenxi took her mother out to dinner and showed her around the area. Su Meifen felt much better. Although she had lost her marriage, she had regained her long-lost freedom.
Before, she stayed at the Jiang family home and dared not go anywhere, fearing that Jiang Liguo would blame her for neglecting the family. Now, she breathes the fresh and free air, and can eat whatever she wants and go wherever she wants without having to worry about anyone's opinion. Her heart is at ease.
Back home, Su Meifen felt much better and was more open-minded.
The next morning, Su Chenxi was going to work. She bought breakfast for her mother, wrote a note on it, and then went to the Shen Foundation.
The first email she received when she sat down in her office was Jiang Yao's resignation letter. She no longer wanted to work under Su Chenxi and wanted to go back to the Jiang family as Miss Jiang.
Su Chenxi approved it without hesitation. She didn't want to see Jiang Yao either, and it would be best if she could sever all ties with the Jiang family in the future.
At noon, Su Chenxi received a call from someone inviting her to lunch. Looking at the pile of documents, Su Chenxi felt overwhelmed and had no choice but to decline.
“I might not be able to get away. There are a mountain of documents that I’ve been putting off for two or three days, and I have to finish them all.”
"I'll come and help you with this."
Before Su Chenxi could refuse, the man hung up the phone. Five minutes later, he appeared at the Shen Foundation and pushed open the door to her office.
Su Chenxi looked up as he entered. She outwardly refused, but inwardly she hoped for his help. With this man's assistance, her work would be twice as efficient.
At noon, Shen Yanchuan accompanied her to eat takeout in the lounge. Su Chenxi placed several complicated documents in front of him. After he finished reading them, he thought they were ready to be signed, and she could sign them herself.
"Sign." The man handed over a document.
Su Chenxi accepted the gift and elegantly signed her name. The man beside her clasped her hands together, resting his chin on the back of his hands, his gaze gentle and doting.
