Dad did not look well lately too. He was barely at home. He used to keep watch over Mom when she was ill. Yet, he was behaving rather indifferent this time around, or should Su Mushi say, cold-blooded.
“I’m not sure myself.” Su Ruowan was not worried that Li Jingran was sick. Li Jingran could die for all she cared. She was concerned about the reason behind the TV show being canceled from the weekly release. Still, she had to keep up the appearance. She inquired with worry, “How is Mom doing?”
“She’s okay.” Su Mushi’s voice reflected fatigue, but he still offered her comfort. “Don’t worry. Muxuan, Muyan, and I will take good care of Mom.”
Although he said so, the look on his face was nothing less than eerie and shrewd. Su Muyan got in trouble yesterday. Feeling peevish, he went out for a good time and messed around with women in the club. The paparazzi snapped photos of that and was now blackmailing him for money.
Su Mushi had been waiting for Su Muyan to slip up and here it was. Su Muyan was presently gathering the cash while keeping Dad in the dark. Dad was already swamped with the family business, so he would beat Su Muyan to death if he were to find out.
Since Su Mushi sold him out in the betting incident, Su Muyan was going to return the favor.
“Sure.” Su Ruowan answered and became hesitant. “Muyan, I… Take care of Mom. Get some rest and don’t strain yourself.”
Su Mushi was baffled by Su Ruowan’s behavior. Ever since he saw Su Ruowan’s real face on National Idol, he no longer thought of her as someone special. In fact, he was disgusted that she had been wearing a painted face even with family. Nevertheless, Su Ruowan was still the sister he adored and saw growing up. He showed concern. “What’s wrong, Wanwan?”
He could not resist comparing Shen Xi and Su Ruowan lately. Su Mushi found Su Ruowan unpresentable the more he drew a comparison.
Shen Xi might be evil at heart, but she was beautiful, talented, and a money-making machine. She even had the heirs of the higher society wrapped around her fingers. If she were to marry a young master of the rich and powerful in the capital, like Situ Zhangyou, the Su family could ride on her coattails.
Su Mushi finally understood why Dad threw away his pride to look for Shen Xi time and again. The Su family’s problems would go away if Shen Xi came home.
They could get Shen Xi to partner with Situ Zhangyou or ask for money from her good buddies in the International Class. If all those failed, they could make her sell Jin Yun. Her company was worth a lot of money.
“Mushi, Mr. Hu said that my latest TV series, Lady Luck did not pass the audit. The weekly release is canceled. I wanted to ask Mom if she knows what’s going on.” Su Ruowan asked. Her heart was pounding as if something bad was about to happen.
She had a clear feeling that things were getting out of hand and possibly taking a turn for the worse. She was thrown into a fluster.
“I’ll ask once Mom’s awake.” Su Mushi’s heart was bleeding to hear her talk about the new TV series. With a gloomy cloud hanging over him, Su Mushi tightened his grip over the phone.
The most regrettable thing he did in his life was turning down the leading role for The Smiling Nation. Regret sent shivers to his core at any mention related to Cloud Seven.
