It took only thirty minutes to drive from the TV station to the Su Family residence. Su Qiuzi got out of the car and knocked on the door, the nanny opened the door, the new nanny had never seen her before and was about to ask, when Su Qiuzi pushed her away and got up to walk in.

She heard Su Gongcheng on the phone in the living room, his tone being desperate tinged with pleading, he didn’t expect that what happened more than twenty years ago would suddenly be blown up today like a premeditated plan, all because he didn’t get rid of the truck driver at that time.

At the last moment, he did not give up to save himself. In the living room, besides his voice, there was also the sound of Su Ai’s sobbing, a kind of sobbing that did not know how her future life would be. She was only just about to start her life, but she was in trepidation when she had lived such a life for more than twenty years. She had taken it for granted, but she didn’t expect ……

No sooner had Su Qiuzi entered when Song Yiyun saw her, than she raised her eyes and looked at her in shock, yet to speak. Only to see the petite girl pick up the set of iced cracked teapot from the table and smashed it straight down at Su Gongcheng’s head.

All of a sudden, the sound of cracked porcelain, the woman’s scream, as well as the man’s muffled grunt of pain, accompanied by the final sound of Su Gongcheng’s angry roar: “What the hell are you doing?!!”

The porcelain piece hurt him, with blood oozing out of his forehead, which was warm and sticky, Su Qiuzi held the porcelain piece in her hand and said, “I’m going to kill you!!”

The porcelain piece in her hand did not fly out, but even as she rushed toward Su Gongcheng, her body was held by a strong force. The man’s warm chest pressed against her cold, stiff back, she could even feel the sound of his heartbeat for a split second. He turned away and lifted her up in a suspended position, saying, “Qiuzi ……”

He Yu picked the girl up, she stifled, yet her bloody hand held the porcelain piece and made a cut toward Su Gongcheng who was on one side dodging. She was like a savage bull, exerting all her strength, but failed to break free from the shackles.

Just as she was imprisoned by her life from the very beginning of her coming into this world, she was powerless, cowardly and incompetent, she tried desperately to get rid of it, yet in the end she went from one shackle, into the trap of another man.

Other people’s lives were either bright and brilliant, or simple and warm, why was it that only her life was full of obscurity and thorns.

The porcelain piece on her hand fell, with the girl being suddenly disarmed, she slipped from the man’s arms on the expensive carpet and cried loudly.

The resentment and dissatisfaction she used to suppress with sunshine and positivity finally turned into aggravation and indignation at the moment the truth came out, something she should not have had to endure in her life.

Even if she disguised herself by pretending to be a pig eating a tiger*, but at heart, she was just a twenty-three-year-old girl who graduated from college and entered the world for the first time, unable to withstand such changes.

[ED/N: Chinese wisdom says maybe you weren’t a “tiger” in that moment, but have no fear, because you could win the battle in the long run, if you have the patience to be the “pig.” That is what the Cantonese like to call “playing the pig, eating the tiger”]

While she was in deep thought, Su Qiuzi was finally sent to the hospital by He Yu. In the hospital, a cold-looking male doctor treated her wound. After the treatment, only her and He Yu were left in the consulting room.

In the blackness of the night, with the smell of disinfectant in the nose, the sound of a flat car sliding by outside, like crushing her head, Su Qiuzi had gauze wrapped around her hand, and now she was lying in silence.

At that time, when she went to Su’s family house, it was only a momentary outburst, a momentary outburst of more than twenty years of darkness, which needed a vent. And now that the outburst was over, she regained her sanity.

“Why were you there?”
