Chapter 1733: Chapter 1316: Stirring Up Trouble_4

But the couple never expected that Su Yun, their daughter they were so proud of, after graduating college, didn’t say a word, gave up the job assigned by the state, and chose to work at a privately-owned foreign trade company. In the end, she didn’t last long there, said the job wasn’t suitable, and quit cleanly, staying home and never going out.

Because of this, the two of them were quite troubled, and tried endlessly to persuade their daughter, but Su Yun wouldn’t listen to a single word.

Who would’ve thought, several months after quitting her job, one day Su Yun suddenly said she wanted to go work in a southern city, claiming a classmate had introduced her to a job there.

As parents, Father Su and Mother Su naturally weren’t at ease, but Su Yun sounded very convincing, and even had the classmate who recommended her call them personally. The person not only told Father Su and Mother Su about the good work environment and promising development at the company, but also explained how high the monthly salary and year-end bonus were, and what kinds of benefits they offered.

In short, Su Yun’s job in the south sounded like a bright future.

Father Su and Mother Su were persuaded, and even though they still worried about their daughter working in a southern city, they didn’t want to become stumbling blocks in her career.

Just like that, the couple was fooled by the daughter they adored for so many years.

The whole thing about going to work in the south? It was just a cover!

Looking back on everything five months ago, Father Su’s expression was cold and grim as he sat on the sofa, not even glancing at Su Yun.

Mother Su meanwhile was hitting Su Yun, crying and scolding her at the same time, her emotions completely out of control.

"Say something! What are your father and I supposed to do now? How’s your sister-in-law supposed to think of our family’s upbringing? How’s your brother going to hold his head up in front of his wife?"

Listening to Mother Su’s accusations, Su Yun sobbed uncontrollably, letting Mother Su hit her.

"How did I end up with such a shameless daughter... Before you graduated, you were always so good. Tell me, how did you become like this? You knew he was married—why did you still fall for him?"

"Mom, I told you, I couldn’t stop myself from thinking about him, I... I wasn’t being shameless, I just wanted to be with him!"

"And what happened?"

"I found out I was pregnant, and worried you’d scold me if you knew, so... so I used the job in the south as an excuse..."

"You already had a baby inside you when you left home?!"

"Yeah."

"Did it never occur to you that his wife would find out?"

"I... I didn’t think about it. I stayed in the apartment he arranged for me, just thinking I’d deal with everything once I had the baby. But I never expected I’d lose the child, never expected to run into his wife that day... Mom, I really wasn’t trying to cause trouble for you and Dad. If you look at the timing, it’s been almost two months since his wife discovered me and since I lost the baby. His wife has been quiet the whole time..."

"You already interfered in their marriage. Even if that man’s wife has a good temper, is she just going to let you run wild?"

"Sob... I know I was wrong..."

"What’s the use in realizing it now? The baby was lost because of his wife, wasn’t it?"

"No, it was another woman who pushed me. I fell to the ground, then the baby was gone."

Mother Su’s eyes were full of disappointment. She sat down next to Father Su, crying as she said: "Old Su, I don’t even know what to say. You figure it out! That kind of man—with no sense of responsibility! What does your daughter even see in him? Sneaking behind his wife’s back, seeing more than one woman on the side—in my eyes, he’s trash. What does your daughter even like about him?!"

Throwing herself into Father Su’s arms, Mother Su broke down in tears.

Father Su wrapped his arm around her shoulders, lightly patting her, eyes shifting to Su Yun: "What are you planning to do?"

"I don’t know. He... he broke things off with me..."

Su Yun had no clue what to do about her situation now.

Father Su was silent. After a long moment he said: "Just stay home and don’t go out for now. In a little while, I’ll ask some people I know from out of town to find you a job."

"Dad, you and Mom think I’ve disgraced you, you don’t want me as your daughter anymore, is that it?"

"Do you think if you stay at home, you’ll be able to withstand all the gossip?"

"..."

"Mom and I only had you and your brother. We’ve never favored either of you. We always thought you’d be like your brother, graduate college and follow the state’s assignment into a government unit or enterprise,

then find someone you truly connect with and get married. Who could’ve guessed, after graduation you didn’t discuss anything with us, refused the state assignment, and insisted on working for a private company. From then on, your path went off track,

so stubborn you don’t listen to a single kind word, and now you’ve made such a mess, making us lose all face. But no matter what, you’re still our child. As your parents, can we really just abandon you?

But keeping you at home isn’t right, not because your mother and I care what you did, but because we don’t want you to be pointed at and judged. Do you understand?"
