Quick Transmigration: Striving Every Day to Overcome Tribulation
Chapter 55 The Heroine's Sister in the Novel "Talented Scholar and Beautiful Woman"
"Brother, I'm still young." Su Su's voice was gentle, and her tone was full of sincerity.
She is only thirteen years old this year and has not yet reached marriageable age. She feels that there is no need to rush into marriage.
Upon hearing Su Su's words, Su Xuan was taken aback, and a multitude of thoughts welled up in his mind.
He recalled Su Su from his past life, whose behavior and manners were exceptionally mature, completely unlike a thirteen-year-old girl.
At that time, she was able to handle many complex situations with ease, so much so that when faced with the clan elders asking Su Su to choose a husband, she completely ignored her actual age.
He sighed inwardly, thinking that the experiences of her past life had perhaps burdened Su Su with too much at a young age, causing her words and actions to exceed the limits of her age.
Now, hearing Su Su so frankly say that she was still young, he suddenly realized that his younger sister was indeed just a child and should not be troubled by marriage too early.
"Then we can keep an eye on it and observe it for a while," Su Xuan said calmly.
Su Su smiled without speaking, then gave Su Xuan a slight bow in farewell. She turned and walked lightly toward her courtyard.
Along the way, a gentle breeze caressed her, ruffling her hair, making her look like a butterfly dancing in spring.
As soon as she entered her courtyard, Lanzhu rushed over, her face full of doubt, and asked, "Miss, what exactly does the head of the family mean?"
Su Su slightly raised the corners of her mouth, but did not answer; her smile carried a hint of mystery.
After a moment, she slowly spoke: "What do you care what he means? Anyway, I'm not getting married now, and the most important thing right now is for Su Lin to get married. Since she wants to get married, let's make it happen smoothly."
Su Su smiled sweetly, her smile as radiant as a blooming flower.
She gave Lanzhu a look that was full of trust and understanding.
Lan Zhu understood immediately and left the room to carry out the task assigned by Su Su.
The room fell silent. Su Su sat there quietly, looking at the magnolia tree outside the window.
Soon after, Cheng Yunqi sent a visiting card to the mansion.
However, Su Xuan was unwilling to meet him and only had his steward discuss matters with him.
Meanwhile, in her room, Su Lin was happily imagining her wonderful married life.
When she heard that Cheng Yunlai had come to visit but had not been received by Su Xuan, she immediately disregarded everything and rushed to the outer courtyard's reception room, just to see her beloved lover.
Her behavior was bold and impulsive, completely disregarding family rules and the opinions of others.
Su Xuan did not give a clear attitude to Su Lin's actions, and even though the wedding date had been set, he still did not have any special reaction.
His silence made it seem as if he had abandoned his biological sister.
However, Su Su did find out that on the night before Su Lin's wedding, Su Xuan walked out of Su Lin's courtyard with a gloomy face.
"She's my own sister! Even if I go too far, I still want the best for her! But she doesn't appreciate my feelings, so it would be better if she didn't know about my past life! That way I wouldn't have to worry so much."
Su Su began to doubt her decision. Why did she give Su Xuan his memories of his past life?
She had only wanted to slack off, but she never expected that someone who had suffered a similar tragic end would be so useless.
He's indecisive and yet he wants to find her a husband. If she really wanted a husband, would she need him to find one for her?
Su Su snorted coldly, her heart filled with disdain.
In Su Su's opinion, Su Xuan's actions were completely unnecessary.
He didn't seem afraid of being killed again; instead, he was single-mindedly focused on getting her out of the competition.
As for Su Lin and Cheng Yunqi, they once enjoyed a period of blissful happiness together.
The good times didn't last long. Cheng Yunqi was arrested and imprisoned by the government on charges of cheating in the imperial examination.
Upon learning of this, Su Lin was extremely anxious. She and her confidante tried every possible means to rescue Cheng Yunqi, but to no avail.
After distancing herself from Cheng Yunqi, her confidante's infatuation with him gradually dissipated like smoke.
The devotion and persistence of the past have become fragile under the impact of reality.
They either quickly married or resolutely left Jiangnan, as if Cheng Yunqi had never occupied an important place in their lives.
After Cheng Yunqi's misfortune, Su Lin ran around trying to help, but to no avail.
In despair, she returned to the Su residence in tears, begging to see Su Xuan.
"If you two get a divorce, we'll help him!" Su Xuan's words were cold and resolute.
“Brother! He is my husband, the one I’ve chosen for this life. You can’t do this…” Su Lin was in tears, her voice filled with pain and resentment. “Besides, my husband has been wronged! He must have been framed, sob sob sob.”
Su Lin was filled with resentment and anger. She even had the despicable suspicion that her brother had set her up to force her to submit.
However, she clenched her fists tightly, suppressing the urge to question.
She knew that questioning her now would only make things worse, and she couldn't lose this last hope.
However, even with Su Lin's tearful pleas and entreaties, Su Xuan remained unmoved in his refusal to help Cheng Yunqi, showing no sign of backing down. Su Lin's heart sank, and despair overwhelmed her like a tidal wave.
Su Lin gritted her teeth, a resolute glint in her eyes.
She clutched her stomach, her voice trembling as she said, "Brother, I am pregnant with my husband's child. If something really happens to my husband this time, my child and I will have no choice but to go with him."
Upon hearing this, Su Xuan's eyes sharpened, and a storm raged within him.
He fell into deep thought, feeling both heartache and worry for his sister and resentment towards Cheng Yunqi, wishing Cheng Yunqi could experience what happened in his past life.
He was determined to stop caring about his sister, but he softened when Su Lin shed tears.
The brother and sister grew up together, relying on each other since childhood, and Su Lin was his motivation.
But as she grew up, Su Lin developed her own thoughts and was no longer as close as before.
But the past life is the past life, and this life has not yet happened.
Su Xuan still misses Su Lin.
However, seeing that Su Xuan was still hesitating, Su Lin's anxiety and despair reached their peak.
She suddenly rushed towards the pillar, intending to threaten suicide. The servants reacted quickly and stopped her.
Su Lin collapsed to the ground, sobbing uncontrollably.
Seeing his sister in such pain, Su Xuan finally softened.
He sighed deeply and shook his head helplessly.
He knew he couldn't just stand by and watch his sister and her unborn child fall into dire straits. But he also understood that helping Cheng Yunqi might bring a series of troubles and consequences.
But he has no children, and he never will.
"I can save Cheng Yunqi, but I have one condition. You have to agree to that condition before I save him."
