Therefore, Su Zitong had tasted the coldness and warmth of the world since she was a child. She had never tasted the taste of family affection. Every day, she lived in fear under the supercilious eyes and cynicism. She was worse than a dog, and she had to hide from Chen Xinliang, her nominal father, to avoid being beaten by him.
This kind of life only came to an end when she was in junior high school. Perhaps Su Wanyu found her conscience, or perhaps she didn't want to see it, so she sent her to a boarding school when she was in junior high school. After paying the tuition for a year, she ignored her and left her to fend for herself.
At a young age, Su Zitong had to find ways to do odd jobs to earn living expenses to support herself. Even so, Chen Xinliang did not intend to let her go. He often went to school to beat and insult her after getting drunk. He called her a shameless bastard, which made her suffer from the cold eyes and pointed fingers of her classmates at school.
Just when Su Zitong couldn't stand such a life and chose to end her young life, she happened to meet Su Ningxiang, her aunt whom she had never met before. She not only encouraged her to live a good life, but also sent her abroad to live in a different environment.
During this period, she had also called Su Wanyu, her biological mother, but that fickle mother didn't care about her life at all. She impatiently told her not to call her again and hung up the phone directly after saying a few words.
Since then, she had completely given up on her mother, Su Wanyu. In her life, the only one who could bring her affection was her aunt, Su Ningxiang. So she always remembered her aunt's words, worked harder to face life bravely, and used knowledge to change her fate.
Last year, at the age of 24, she received a master's degree from the Business School of the University of Pennsylvania with excellent results. Then she declined the invitation of the University of Pennsylvania to stay and returned to China.
After an obscure internship at the grass-roots level of Datang Group for half a year, she was recently entrusted with an important task by Su Ningxiang and became the financial director of Datang Group. She became a big star of the Su Family in a leap.
The most ironic thing was that after she became the financial director, Su Wanyu took the initiative to call her for the first time and played the emotional card. She indirectly explained that she had no choice but to treat her like this and hoped that she could understand.
Before the performance was over, Su Zitong hung up the phone. She was no longer the weak girl who could be bullied by others and could not control her own fate.
The cruel reality had long trained her to have a pair of fiery eyes. She could tell at a glance who was sincerely good to her and who was hypocritical. She would not let anyone dictate her fate.
"Silly child, what nonsense are you saying? No matter how life treats you, you have to face it positively, live out your true self, and live with the elegance you deserve. Only then will your life not be in vain. "
Su Ningxiang gently held the poor girl in her arms and stroked her shiny black hair. Thinking of her son, Ding Ning, she could not help but feel a strong maternal love.
Su Zitong gently wrinkled her delicate and cute nose and held back the tears that were about to flow out of her eyes. Like a lazy cat, she nestled in her aunt's arms. The strong familial love wrapped around her, and her erratic heart seemed to have landed on something. She choked and said, "Aunt, how good it would be if you were my mother."
"Silly girl, if you like it, I will be your mother in the future."
Su Ningxiang gently patted Su Zitong's thin shoulder and said lightly.
Su Zitong's face bloomed with an amazingly beautiful smile. She murmured dreamily, "Mother, it's so good. Zitong will have a mother to love her in the future."
"Yes, my Zitong will have a mother in the future, and a mother will also have a daughter."
Su Ningxiang felt a stab of pain in her heart. Her eyes were slightly red as she quietly hugged the poor girl and repeated affirmatively.
In front of the villa, Granny Hua squinted her eyes and looked at this scene with a smile. She thought, "Young Master can't accompany Miss, but it seems good to have a little Miss to accompany him in the future."
Bang!
An almost inaudible gunshot was heard. Granny Hua's face changed dramatically. She shouted "Miss, be careful" and rushed to Su Ningxiang without any regard for her own safety.
Su Zitong, who was facing the gunman's attack, reacted faster than her. Looking at the rapidly enlarging bullet in her sight, her pupils violently contracted. Without hesitation, she picked up Su Ningxiang and spun on the spot, using her back to block the fatal bullet.
Puff!
With a soft sound, blood splattered everywhere. A horrifying wound appeared on the back of Su Zitong's OL suit. A hint of pain appeared on her beautiful face.
She felt dizzy and her life force was quickly draining away. However, she looked at her aunt with tears streaming down her face and her mouth opening and closing as she shouted something. Unfortunately, no matter how hard she tried, she could not hear what she was shouting. However, looking at the shape of her mouth, it seemed that she was calling for Zitong … Zitong …
The corner of her mouth twitched slightly, revealing a gratified smile. She murmured in her heart, "That's great. In this world, Zitong also has a mother who truly loves her. Mother, Zitong will not let anyone hurt you."
Her vision suddenly turned black and Su Zitong completely lost consciousness.
She did not see that after she fainted, Granny Hua, who looked like an ordinary old woman, actually flew into the sky like a big bird and shot towards the direction of the sniper.
When Granny Hua went to chase after the murderer, four erratic figures suddenly appeared and guarded in front of Su Ningxiang as if they were facing a great enemy.
"Quick, don't worry about me. Hurry and call the ambulance."
Su Ningxiang instructed with tears streaming down her face.
The four erratic figures said awkwardly, "Miss, it's not safe yet. You should go into the villa first."
"No, I'm fine. Hurry, hurry and call the ambulance. Zitong, hang in there. You must hang in there."
Su Zitong's blood had already dyed the professional suit on her body red. Su Ningxiang shouted at the top of her lungs with red eyes.
Bang!
At that moment, another sniper bullet was shot from another direction.
"Bring the miss back to the room and protect the miss!"
A black figure shouted and rushed towards the direction where the bullet came from like lightning. He used his body to block the bullet. However, the strange thing was that when the bullet hit his body, it only made his body pause for a moment. Then, he shot away as if nothing had happened.
Bang bang bang!
Unfortunately, there was more than one enemy. Following that, another three sniper bullets came from all directions, forcing the three black figures to go up and block the bullets with their bodies. At the same time, they did not forget to shout, "Miss, hurry and enter the villa. You'll be safe once you enter the villa."
Only then did Su Ningxiang wake up from her grief and indignation. She knew that even if she called an ambulance, she had to ensure her own safety first.
Thinking of this, she picked up Su Zitong with difficulty and stumbled into the villa.
At that moment, two figures suddenly appeared in front of her and blocked her way.
Su Ningxiang was shocked and took a vigilant step back. Looking at the two black-robed masked men who suddenly appeared in front of her, she said coldly, "Who are you? What do you want?"
"Director Su, our young master invites you to be a guest. I hope you can cooperate."
The two black-robed masked men made an electronically synthesized voice without any human emotion, which made Su Ningxiang's heart sink to the bottom.
"Who is your young master? Why does he want to see me? "
Su Ningxiang thought quickly, but her face remained calm and asked tentatively.
After the initial panic, she had calmed down at the moment and realized that these people came with bad intentions. They did not hesitate to use snipers to distract the guards around her just to kidnap her.
However, who did it? Zhao Tianya? It should not be him. If he wanted to do it, he would have done it long ago. He would not wait until now.
But who else could it be except him? No matter how smart she was in daily life and how she was a master of mental calculation, at this moment, she had no idea.
"Godmother, I'm You. Brother Ding Ning asked me to protect you. You go with them now. Don't worry. We will follow you and we won't let them hurt you."
Just at this moment, a young voice suddenly rang out in Su Ningxiang's mind, causing her to be stunned. However, her heart, which had been hanging in the air, was now at ease. Her heart was filled with boundless joy. It turned out that Ning 'er had already sent people to protect her.
However, Su Ningxiang looked at Su Zitong, whose breath was getting weaker in her arms, and showed a hesitant expression.
"Director Su, you will know who the young master is when you see him. We were ordered to invite you over, so we don't want to be rough. Please cooperate with us, otherwise, don't blame us for being rough."
A black-robed masked man urged impatiently. He knew that those Men of Sacrifice snipers could not delay Granny Hua and the others for a long time, and they should be on the way back now. Although they also arranged people to intercept them, they were in Yan Jing after all. If they used guns, it would be a big deal. If they stayed longer, they would be in more danger.
"I can go with you, but I have to save her first …"
Su Ningxiang made up her mind and said resolutely.
"Director Su, don't worry. This girl won't die. The snipers have a sense of propriety. They didn't hit her vital parts. Hurry up and go with us. Otherwise, don't blame us for being rude."
After the black-robed masked man reassured Su Ningxiang, he continued to urge her.
"Okay, I'll go with you now. Let me put her down first."
Su Ningxiang took a deep look at Su Zitong, put her down in the car, and turned to follow the black-robed man to the depths of the villa.
It was not that she believed the black-robed masked man's words, but that You secretly transmitted a message to her, saying that Su Zitong's life was not in danger. Only then did she put Su Zitong down.
With her intelligence, she could already tell that You wanted to use her to find the real culprit behind the scenes.
Logically, she should blame him for putting her in danger, but she did not feel dissatisfied at all. Instead, she felt very relieved.
This was because she knew very well that it was impossible to guard against a thief for a thousand days. The safest way was to find the real culprit and eliminate all future troubles.
However, she did not know how much psychological pressure You were under at the moment. He knew very well how important his mother was to his big brother, and he could not allow anything to happen to her.
If it was not because he could tell that these people did not want to hurt Su Ningxiang, but only wanted to kidnap her, and he was confident that he could completely control the situation, he would have killed these people long ago.
Moreover, who was the mastermind behind all this? Who wanted to kidnap Su Ningxiang? What did they want to do with her? He would never be at ease if he did not find out who the mastermind was.
This was because Su Ningxiang was not only his big brother's mother, but she was also his mother. For her future safety, even if he had to risk his big brother's wrath, he would not hesitate to catch the person who dared to harm his big brother's mother and tear him into pieces.
After the black-robed masked man took Su Ningxiang to a car with a fake license plate and left with a blindfold, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Su Zitong. He patted hard, and a bullet fell out of her wound. Then, he took out a pill and stuffed it into her mouth.
After a while, Su Zitong's wound began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye, and her pale face gradually regained its color. Her messy breathing also gradually became stable. Only then did the figure flash strangely and disappear.
