Quick Transmigration: Striving Every Day to Overcome Tribulation
Chapter 54 The Heroine's Sister in the Novel "Talented Scholar and Beautiful Woman"
Su Lin took a deep breath, and a wave of bitterness surged in her heart, which was revealed on her face and could not be hidden.
At this moment, she felt no joy as she had expected. Instead, she felt as if she were walking on clouds, empty and without any sense of security.
But when she thought of Cheng Lang's face, Su Lin forcefully straightened her mind and strengthened her resolve: "Thank you for your understanding, brother. I have no regrets about my choice. Brother, don't try to use these methods to oppress me."
After saying that, Su Lin resolutely turned and left.
Even when she passed by Su Su, who was feeding the fish, she didn't say anything.
The relationship between Su Su and Su Lin has never been good.
Su Su was doted on by her mother, while Su Lin was protected by her brother.
However, an older brother is not a mother, and there are always ways in which he cannot take care of her.
Moreover, Su Xuan, the older brother, is only four years older than Su Lin, and in many ways, he is still just a child himself.
The original owner, Su Su, always longed for a brother who would dote on and protect her, rather than a brother who always sided with the sister she didn't like.
Therefore, Su Su and Su Xuan were not close.
Even with Su Su's mother and father mediating, it didn't have much effect.
Since the death of the head of the Su family and the succession of Su Xuan, Su Su's mother advised her to keep in touch with her brother so that she could find a good family in the future.
Only then did Su Su begin to learn how to please her brother, Su Xuan.
However, Su Lin always stopped this process and even mocked him.
Therefore, the relationship between the three of them was quite strained.
Fortunately, Su Xuan has a gentle personality and is polite to others. Su Su is also considered his sister, so overall they are quite well-liked.
However, there was never enough closeness between them.
"Little Su, what are you doing here?" Su Xuan watched Su Lin walk away briskly before turning his gaze to Su Su by the pond.
At this moment, a complex emotion welled up in his heart.
He hadn't treated this Su Su sister calmly for a long time.
From the moment the younger sister revealed her desire to seize power within the family, they were placed on opposing sides.
However, he never expected that after his death, it would be his sister Su Su who would collect his body and erect a tombstone for him.
Meanwhile, his most beloved and closest younger sister, Su Lin, was still racking her brains to please Cheng Yunqi and grieving over the childhood sweethearts that Cheng Yunqi brought back, and had no time to pay attention to her dead brother.
Recalling the scene of being consciously cut with knife after knife, it really hurt!
Even now, Su Xuan still experiences phantom pain from time to time, and can't help but clutch his aching arm.
Su Su tilted her head, her eyes sparkling.
She keenly sensed that her brother seemed to have been reborn!
"Brother, I made you some soup to nourish you, but you and sister had something to do, so I waited outside for a while." Su Su's voice was clear and melodious, like a clear spring flowing in the mountains, or the melodious chirping of birds in the early morning.
The voice carried a deliberate attempt to be affectionate, like a kitten trying to get close to its owner, cautiously trying to please them.
Su Xuan slowly shifted his gaze from Su Su's face to the soup bowl on the tray held by her personal maid, Lan Zhu.
Su Xuan frowned slightly, lost in thought. He tried hard to recall the various scenes from his past life, attempting to confirm whether Su Su had offered him warmth at this time in his past life, just as she was now.
He had long forgotten such trivial matters from his past life and couldn't recall them.
Su Xuan sighed softly, a strange feeling welling up in his heart.
He didn't know if he had missed Su Su's care in his past life, nor did he know if things would have been different if he had paid more attention to the people around him back then.
Su Su: "Brother, you can drink more if you want. I'm going back now."
Su Xuan: "Come in!"
Their voices overlapped, but Su Su could still clearly hear Su Xuan's words.
"Eh?"
Su Su looked at him in surprise, seemingly wondering why Su Xuan would let her in today.
Her eyes widened, filled with a mixture of doubt and surprise. She stood rooted to the spot, motionless, as if she couldn't believe her ears.
After a while, she came to her senses and a bright smile appeared on her face.
Seeing Su Su's reaction, Su Xuan realized that Su Lin's dislike for Su Su and her constant badmouthing of Su Su in front of him had caused him to gradually distance himself from Su Su.
He had never let Su Su into his study before, no wonder she was so surprised.
A pang of guilt welled up in Su Xuan's heart, but as soon as this feeling of guilt surfaced, he couldn't help but remember that Su Su was no delicate little kitten, but rather had sharp claws.
He was grateful to Su Su for collecting his body after his death, giving his soul a place to rest. This kindness weighed heavily on his heart like a stone.
At the same time, he recalled Su Su's ruthless ambition for family power. She had used every means to seize power from him, which made his heart extremely complicated.
His gaze slowly fell on Su Su's busy face.
At this moment, Su Su smiled innocently and brightly, her smile like the most radiant flower in spring, showing no trace of the swiftness and determination she displayed when she jumped to her death.
Looking at Su Su like this, Su Xuan felt a mix of emotions.
"Sister, do you want the Su family?" Su Xuan suddenly asked, his voice low and slightly hoarse.
Su Su's smile suddenly faded, and she looked surprised at her brother's words. "What are you saying, brother? You're already the head of the family! What's there to want or not want!"
"What kind of life does my sister most want to live?" Su Xuan was not affected by Su Su's answer and continued to ask.
Hearing Su Xuan's question, Su Su became a little impatient, and her brows furrowed involuntarily. For a moment, it seemed as if a small mountain had risen between her eyebrows.
A flicker of displeasure crossed her eyes, a subtle emotion rippling like waves on a lake. But she quickly realized her reaction was inappropriate, and she swiftly relaxed her furrowed brows, as if closing a newly opened umbrella.
She tried to adjust her expression, maintaining a friendly tone, and said, "I'm being obedient now." Her answer seemed somewhat perfunctory, and her gaze unconsciously drifted elsewhere.
Although Su Su frowned quickly, Su Xuan, who had been staring at her, still noticed it; his keen eyes caught the change in that instant.
Suddenly, Su Xuan remembered that Su Su had been pampered by her stepmother and father since childhood, and had always gotten whatever she wanted.
She flattered him only because he was the head of the family.
"Does Su Su want to get married?"
