Chapter 617 Lady Su

Chapter 617 Lady Su

??" I am sorry about the bet," said Su Wan as she soaked her feet in the warm water and watched Lin Yan take off his clothes and change into the set of clothes that he used as nightwear. " If you don't want to do it then you don't have to do it, we can think of something else, maybe I will talk with Grandma and put a stop to it."

??Lin Yan smiled hearing the concern in her voice before putting his clothes inside the trunk. " You don't have to worry about it," he said as he walked towards her and checked the water temperature when he noticed that it has gotten cold he removed the water vat from under her feet and wiped the water clean off her skin before helping her lay down on the bed. Once he was done, he sat next to her and took her hand, " Its true that the bet is a difficult one but I don't think that your grandmother really expects us to fulfil the requirements of the bet——"

??" But she—"

??" I know, what you are worried about," said Lin Yan as he patted her hand. " But I think that your grandmother is only putting us on the pedestal because she wants us to earn enough for our kids, she is not wrong without family's situation I think it's better for us to improve the living conditions of our family and —- I too want to move the capital… I have always dreamt of living in the capital when I was young, I have heard a lot from others who went to the capital and I have to say that I have found it quite fascinating. By giving us that bet, she is only pushing us to do what we would have done anyway, in a few years it's just that the time is pushed up a little nothing else. " He tucked her in the bed before getting up from his spot and heading to his side. " If anything I will say your grandmother loves you a bit too much." 

??Su Wan turned her head and looked at Lin Yan with eyes that were devoid of any light. " She doesn't love me, she loves this body—- if she finds out that her true granddaughter is gone, do you really think that she will still smile at me like she is now?" 

??Lin Yan sighed as he lay down next to her and turned to face her, he knew that ever since Su Wan got pregnant she has been getting more and more insecure about herself, so he stretched his hands and pulled her in his arms, " I don't know about whether she will be able to smile at you like she is smiling now after finding out the truth," his words caused Su Wan to stiffen but he pressed his hands on her back and started rubbing her back with soothing movements. " But what I know is if you didn't come here, then maybe grandma Shen would have never met Wan Wan." 

??" What does that mean?" She asked as she raised her head and looked at him.

??" What I mean is that, if it was the real Su Wan who married us instead of you, then we would have never  been able to separate from the old Lin family, and our mother would have never been able to live past her sickness and maybe I and Rui would have been ruined as well…" Su Wan placed her hand on his mouth as she narrowed her eyes, " Don't say such words, all right?" 

??Lin Yan smiled as he tightened his hug and smiled, " What I am saying is —-we would have been living in a very different situation than we are now, maybe we would have been able to separate later on but it would have taken time, and from what I have heard about the real Su Wan, all I can know about her is —— that she was a girl who would be willing to blame anyone but herself. She lacked courage and blamed her fate for what was happening to her, isn't that the reason that Shen family never came to see her? Because she hated them for never reaching out to her? For not saving her mother but she never blamed her father because she couldn't fight him…. To me, she sounds a lot more toxic." 

??Su Wan rolled her eyes at him but she was a little more at ease, he was right about the true Su Wan being here, who knows what kind of situation the Lin brothers would be living in?

??" That's why I said that even if she was to be here, I don't think she would have forgiven the Shen family and accepted them," said Lin Yan with his head resting on top of Su Wan's. "That's why you don't have to worry about whether or not you are deserving of this love, without you here, there would have been no peace, understand?" 

??She nodded her head and Lin Yan smiled as he kissed the top of her head. " Then I think it's time for you to sleep and take some rest, don't tire out my daughter." 

??" You only care about your daughter, huh!" snapped Su Wan as she glared at Lin Yan and smacked his arm. " Now that you have a daughter, you have completely forgotten about your wife haven't you, and here I was feeling all snuggly because of your gentle words, jerk!" 

??" All right, I am sorry, I am sorry… I really care about you too... I didn't want you to tire yourself out too," Lin Yan chuckled as he hid his face behind his hands as Su Wan hit him with her hands. " Oww, Oww don't twist my hands! Hey!" 

??" Your priority is always your daughter isn't she?" When Lin Yan didn't reply, Su Wan raised her leg and kicked him in the back, " Get lost! You jerk! I am the one who is carrying your daughter!" 

??" I know I am sorry Wan Wan!"

??In the far-away capital city, in the imperial palace ——

??A beautiful woman sat in front of the mirror, touching her face with a slightly dazed look on her face —— as if she couldn't get used to this face even after so many times seeing it. " I..am so beautiful," she whispered as she turned to look at her maid who nodded her head, "You sure are the most beautiful woman, Lady Su."
