    Chapter 175: She Really Likes Su He

    "Su He, I think I’ll stay behind. You take the three kids and hang out with your friend. I’ll go to the shop to supervise the renovation and come back later to cook."

    Fu Yanju didn’t want to go when Su He offered to drive them for a drive.

    With the shop still under construction and no income coming in, Fu Yanju was really stressed.

    She wanted to keep busy, or else she felt like she was mooching off at home.

    "Alright then, I’ll take the three kids," Su He smiled and said. "And once we get to Auntie Wen’s place, be on your best behavior, okay?"

    "Okay!" The three kids chorused before excitedly piling into the car.

    They were just thrilled to be going out with Su He and didn’t worry at all about whether she, as a new driver, might be a dangerous driver.

    Kids don’t know any better. Even Fu Yanju wasn’t worried about Su He’s driving skills.

    In this era, private cars were still uncommon, so serious crashes weren’t as frequent, and people naturally weren’t as anxious about them.

    Su He lived up to expectations too—she set off along with the kids and the durian and hit the road!

    After parking steadily at the address Shi Jin had given her, Su He saw a stately old home.

    Wen Yuru (Auntie Wen), whose family background was clearly well-off, it was hard to understand why she ended up being bullied so badly after marrying into her husband’s family.

    Once the car was parked, Su He led the three children forward and knocked on the front door.

    After a while, someone came to open it.

    It was a good-looking guy who looked to be in his thirties.

    "Hello, may I ask who you are?" The young man was staring at the beautiful woman before him.

    "Hello, is this Wen Yuru’s home?" Su He asked.

    "Yes, it is. She’s my younger sister," the man replied.

    "Oh, I’m Su He. Could you tell Yu Ru that I’ve brought what she asked for?"

    The man paused briefly before quickly saying, "You’re Su He? The one who saved my sister? Thank you so much!"

    Su He was quick to respond, "It was nothing. Anyone would’ve done the same if they saw what was happening."

    "Just come inside with me to see my sister. She’s been talking about you these past few days, worried you wouldn’t find her."

    After saying this, Wen Yuru’s brother ushered Su He inside.

    "Wait, let me grab something first."

    Su He went back to the car and took out the bag containing the durian.

    "Let me help you with that." Unexpectedly, Wen Yuru’s brother had followed her and took the bag from her hands.

    "Thank you," Su He said, slightly taken aback by his eagerness.

    "Let’s go." Su He led the three kids into the Wen family home.

    Wen Yuru was sitting in the living room getting an earful from her parents. Ever since Shi Jin had notified them and they rushed over, she had been getting lectured constantly.

    Of course, it was a tough-love lecture born from frustration.

    They had always disapproved of Wen Yuru marrying beneath her, but she stubbornly insisted on marrying Liu Jianjun.

    Now look where that brought her—she had been bullied to the point of nearly being killed.

    When Liu Jianjun learned that her family had rushed over and visited several times in recent days to take Wen Yuru home, he had been driven away each time.

    The Wen family coldly informed him to simply wait for them to file for divorce.

    As for the child? Naturally, it would belong to the Wens. Dealing with Liu Jianjun would be effortless for them.

    Wen Yuru had also recently awakened to reality. She used to believe this was only a conflict between herself and Liu Jianjun’s mother, thinking that Liu Jianjun still cared about her.

    But after witnessing how Su He and Fu Tinghua treated each other, Wen Yuru realized her expectations of Liu Jianjun had been tragically low.

    If he truly loved her, he wouldn’t have told her to just endure it every time.

    She had been completely deceived, as if brainwashed by Liu Jianjun, acting like a fool.

    In any case, she would never step foot in that house again.

    Since marrying into his family, she hadn’t spent a single penny of Liu Jianjun’s money—his salary was controlled by his mother.

    Her daily expenses all came from the allowance her own family provided, yet that old witch still complained she was too weak to lift a finger and couldn’t earn money for the household.

    Now that she had finally come to her senses, Wen Yuru thought her past self was incomprehensible.

    To endure so many years for so-called love—was absolutely insane.

    “You’re very pregnant now; traveling isn’t good for you.

    We’ll stay here with you until you give birth and handle the divorce at the same time.

    Once the baby is born, you can come back to the capital with us.”

    Her father spoke beside her.

    “Dad, I know,” Wen Yuru sighed.

    He repeated these words every day, over and over, as if afraid she might change her mind and decide not to go through with the divorce.

    Just then, footsteps echoed from outside.

    First came Wen Yuru’s second brother, Wen Ziyang.

    “Yu Ru, guess who’s here?” Wen Ziyang smiled.

    Wen Yuru turned toward the door and saw the person she had longed for day and night.

    “Su He!” She happily stood up and hurried over.

    She had finally arrived!

    “Hey hey, slow down—I’ll come to you,” Su He quickly said.

    She wasn’t being careful—she was still very pregnant.

    “When did you get back?” Wen Yuru sat back down, her face lighting up as she asked.

    "I came back the day before yesterday."

    "You've been back for days and didn't even come to see me," Yu Ru said with playful reproach.

    She really adored Su He. If she were a man, she would have definitely used her family connections to take Su He away from Dr. Fu.

    But of course, that was just a fantasy. Su He was exactly her type.

    "I've been swamped these past few days. As soon as I was free, I went straight to Young Master Shi's place to get your address," Su He replied helplessly.

    "I left my address with the hospital nurse, asking her to give it to Dr. Fu when he returned."

    Su He said, slightly embarrassed, "She probably forgot. Nurses are quite busy."

    Ahem! At this moment, Mr. Wen couldn't help but cough, interrupting their casual chat.

    "You must be Miss Su, right? Hello, I'm Yu Ru's father," Mr. Wen said with a smile.

    "Hello, Uncle Wen. I'm Su He," Su He quickly greeted.

    "Thank you for saving our Yu Ru. If there's ever anything you need in the future, don't hesitate to come to us," Mr. Wen promised.

    Anyone could tell the Wens were important people, and when people like them made promises, they meant them.

    "Of course, I'll remember that. Thank you, Uncle Wen," Su He replied brightly.

    Her confident and direct response impressed Mr. Wen.

    Now this was a sharp girl—just what Yu Ru needed. In the past, they had been so focused on raising their daughter to be a proper young lady that they'd hardly let her out of the house, and ended up making her too sheltered.

    Just look how badly the Liu family had bullied her, and she hadn't even told them.

    She was nearly killed—her and the baby both—and they only found out afterward.

    That foolishly stubborn girl had been afraid they'd blame her, so she stayed silent.

    In the end, it was that Shi boy who informed them.

    The Wen household erupted in fury when they learned what had happened.

    Yu Ru's brothers swore that Liu Jianjun would pay dearly.
