Chapter 585: Chapter 585: Mad and Irrational

Su Mu always thought she wasn’t afraid of heights, but as she slowly approached the edge of the roof, the feeling of her legs becoming softer grew stronger. When a cold breeze blew by, she involuntarily shivered, yet reality forced her to get closer. Standing just a step away from Zhou Yaxian, she tried to speak:

"Auntie, why don’t we go down first? If you think the food that Auntie Li brought you today wasn’t made by me, I can take you to my house now, and I’ll cook for you myself, okay?"

"Susu." Zhou Yaxian didn’t turn around, her gaze fixed on the distance: "Tell me, what exactly is going on between you and Wen Han? Are you two still together now?"

It was at this moment that Fu Shinian came over, standing beside Wen Han. When he saw Su Mu so close to the edge, he couldn’t help but frown. He wanted to speak out yet knew how inappropriate that would be. His heart was in a hurry, but he could not disturb Su Mu, so he could only vent all his dissatisfaction on Wen Han:

"After this is all over, don’t get Su Mu involved in the Wen Family matters again. You know she shouldn’t have to take responsibility for your mother."

Wen Han glanced at Fu Shinian:

"I know, sorry."

Wen Han was already showing such a low posture, so Fu Shinian couldn’t say much more. Fortunately, at this time, Su Mu felt Fu Shinian’s gaze. She turned to look at him, giving him a reassuring smile. But this smile didn’t soothe Fu Shinian; he only wanted to pull her back and scold her fiercely.

She almost gave up without letting herself have a few days of peace, which really was asking for a scolding. But in the current situation, what could he say? He could only pray that she would come back quickly, so he could embrace her tightly.

Su Mu hesitated for a moment, ultimately not daring to tell the truth:

"Auntie, things between Wen Han and me are still the same as before. You should be able to sense it, right?"

"The same as before?" Zhou Yaxian laughed, turning back to look at Su Mu: "Which ’before’ are you talking about? Before you two got together, or after you got together? Susu, don’t try to deceive me. Although my memory isn’t very good at times, I can still discern the truth from the lies."

Su Mu looked at Zhou Yaxian, hesitating for a moment:

"Auntie, I’ve never quite understood, why do you insist on Wen Han and me being together? There are so many girls who like Wen Han, many better than me, why must it be me?"

"Because Wen Han likes you." Zhou Yaxian’s emotions suddenly became agitated: "Because he likes you, I can be at ease when he’s with you. Moreover, Shaoyuan also likes you. His grandfather and I have seen how good you are to Shaoyuan. In our eyes, you are the most suitable person for Wen Han, and only by entrusting Wen Han and Shaoyuan to you can I be at ease, and then your uncle can pass away in peace."

Su Mu really wanted to tell the truth, but seeing Zhou Yaxian’s suddenly changed emotions, she truly didn’t know if she should tell the truth. At this moment, the truth might make Zhou Yaxian understand and come to her senses, but there was also a chance it could confuse her even more, causing her to jump down from here.

The firefighters couldn’t come up, so they had to find a way through a window on the top floor, but Zhou Yaxian was clever. She’d noticed this early on. Before Su Mu could say anything, Zhou Yaxian stood up from the edge and shouted to the firefighters below:

"Don’t bother yourselves, I won’t let you save me. If you dare move even a little, I’ll jump down from here immediately."

The firefighters dared not move again, quietly retreating to look for a new opportunity.

Zhou Yaxian stood teetering at the edge, and Su Mu, who had a tiny inclination to tell the truth, didn’t dare anymore. She could only temporarily calm Zhou Yaxian’s emotions:

"Auntie, can we come over first? I have a fear of heights, and if we continue like this, my legs are really going to give out. I might actually fall down."

With this remark, Su Mu had intended to make Zhou Yaxian see things from her perspective, but unexpectedly, it caused Fu Shinian to worry deeply. He did not dare to speak loudly, yet he still called out ’Su Mu’ softly. Su Mu heard him, turned her head, smiled, but Fu Shinian’s eyebrows knitted even more tightly.

Zhou Yaxian also heard him. She turned to look at Fu Shinian, slowly smiled, then her gaze fell back on Su Mu’s face:

"Did you and Wen Han break up?"

Su Mu opened her mouth but did not know how to respond. If she denied it, what would Fu Shinian feel, but if she admitted it, would Zhou Yaxian become even more emotionally agitated, leading to consequences nobody could bear?

Su Mu’s silence made the atmosphere grow increasingly tense. Initially, Zhou Yaxian had just been standing simply at the edge, but now she began pacing back and forth. Each step she took seemed to tread on Su Mu’s heart. It didn’t matter much about her, but Zhou Yaxian was becoming more and more endangered.

"Did you break up? When did this happen? Why don’t I know about it? What happened between you two? Why did you break up? Why has no one ever told me, if you two broke up, then what am I supposed to do? I still have to meet Song Yan. If he finds out that I messed this up, he will definitely blame me. What face do I have to see him with?"

Wen Han spoke up:

"Yes, Father’s wish was for me to be with Su Mu, but now we have broken up, you have no right to see Father again, so please come down, and we can talk slowly. Perhaps I will find a girl who is better than Su Mu, and you’ll like her more. She might treat Shaoyuan better, too."

"Impossible," Zhou Yaxian halted her steps, facing Wen Han, behind her were dozens of floors high, a careless move could lead to her shattering to pieces. Su Mu’s heart was in her throat, but she could only watch, even her breathing was light.

"If you could have found a girl better than Su Mu, wouldn’t you have liked her already, why wait until now? I know you’re just placating me, you want me to get down, and then sever ties with Su Mu cleanly... No, that’s not right." Zhou Yaxian suddenly laughed:

"Actually, there’s been nothing between you two for a while now, right? It’s already been cut clean, isn’t it? Otherwise, why would he be here?"

Zhou Yaxian looked towards Fu Shinian:

"Did you come here because you’re worried about Su Mu?"

Fu Shinian looked at Zhou Yaxian, fell silent for a few seconds, then slowly began to speak:

"Auntie, I know the pain of losing a loved one must be immense, and while I haven’t experienced the death you faced, I have lived through life and death separations in the past few years. I think I can somewhat understand what you’re going through, but many things happen and they just happen. Regardless of how hard we try, there are things we cannot retrieve or force."

Fu Shinian took a step forward:

"You insist on Wen Han and Su Mu being together, using threats, but even if they really come together again because of your threats, do you think they will be happy, living together in good conscience and peace?"
