Chapter 1427: Chapter 1427: Bastard

Su Ningxiu was incredulously astonished.

"What? Big brother, what are you saying? You’re saying you haven’t caused any trouble at the gambling house? Then how did the people from the gambling house find you? What in the world is going on here?"

Su Ningxiu bombarded him with several questions all at once.

Mrs. Shen also pressed, "Zhezhe, quickly tell your mother and your sister, how did that group from the gambling house get to you? If you haven’t provoked them, why would they come to you for money without any reason?"

This was also what puzzled Su Yunjin.

Su Yunjin had also not expected Su Muze to say that he hadn’t provoked those people from the gambling house. She also turned her gaze towards Su Muze, waiting for his reply.

With his parents and sister looking at him, Su Muze found himself unable to utter another word! His involvement with the gambling house was because of Xiao Yu. For the woman he loved, he had taken on the gambling debts owed by Xiao Yu’s elder cousin. Although Su Muze was now disheartened and disappointed in Xiao Yu, he hadn’t completely severed his feelings for her.

Whenever the matters related to Xiao Yu were mentioned, Su Muze’s heart ached unbearably.

Mrs. Shen and Su Ningxiu couldn’t understand why Su Muze suddenly fell silent, but Su Yunjin saw through him and directly asked, "Big brother, is this matter related to Xiao Yu?"

Other than Xiao Yu, there was no one else who could make her big brother so silent.

Su Muze, who wore his heart on his sleeve, was read by Su Yunjin, and immediately a look of guilt and unease flashed across his face, allowing Su Ningxiu to grasp the situation as well.

It seemed her earnest and honest big brother still harbored unfulfilled feelings for that woman.

"Big brother, what now? Despite having gone through all this and nearly losing your life, are you still thinking about that woman? If she had even a shred of feeling for you, would she have disregarded you after you sacrificed everything for her? Do you really think that woman actually likes you? In my view, that woman is merely looking to take advantage from you."

Su Ningxiu bluntly laid out Xiao Yu’s intentions and goals, causing Su Muze’s heart to feel as if it was being sliced open by a sharp blade, throbbing with pain.

Mrs. Shen staggered several steps backward.

Trembling with anger.

"Zhezhe, are you really still thinking about that woman? Is what your sister said true?" She had thought after this ordeal, Su Muze would have learned his lesson.

But who would have thought he was still harboring thoughts for that woman?

Caught with his emotions exposed, Su Muze hastily tried to cover up, "No, no, mother, Xiuxiu, I haven’t, I really haven’t, I have truly given up on Miss Xiao."

The words of Su Muze weren’t false.

He would no longer seek out Xiao Yu in the future.

Let everything between him and Xiao Yu be considered just a dream!

With Su Muze saying so, Mrs. Shen and Su Ningxiu’s expressions softened slightly. Mrs. Shen’s face eased up a bit, "Zhezhe, your mother and your sisters are all doing this for your own good. You must understand our painstaking effort; we just want you to have a better life, not truly wishing to ruthlessly separate you from that woman. If Miss Xiao really were a well-behaved and kind-hearted woman who knows how to run a household, why would your mother and sister stop you?"

Su Muze nodded silently.

"Mother, I know." Whether or not Xiao Yu was scheming against him, Su Muze was not so naive that he couldn’t see that Xiao Yu lacked affection and care for him.

The indifference and firmness of Xiao Yu were also the reasons why Su Muze decided he would not go to see Xiao Yu ever again.

Su Zhongshi glared sternly at his son and laid down an ultimatum, "Su Muze, listen well in front of your mother and sisters today. If you dare to seek out that woman again, from then on, you will no longer be the son of Su Zhongshi nor will you belong to the Su Family. I do not have a disgraceful creature like you."
