Shadow Bride

Chapter 13



When she was a child, her mother Mu Yun bought her a present.

My mother will buy a piece of jewelry to give her every year. She once said to her with a smile, "Dear Xingyu, these beautiful jewelry are the dowries your mother has saved for you. One piece a year. You will be the most beautiful and happiest bride on your wedding day."

However, only five items were saved.

Before the end of the fifth year, there was an accident at home. My grandfather Mu's family went bankrupt, and my mother died in a car accident. After that, she was left alone in the world. Her stepmother came in and robbed her mother of all her dowry and inheritance, including these five precious jewels.

Liu Meizhi gave two of them to Su Xingqi.

One is a white jade eardrop, which is polished and carved with the finest suet jade. It has a full head and can start to warm up. The other one is a pink diamond necklace, which is very good in appearance and bright in color. Su Xingqi wears it around her neck every day to show off. Su Xingyu has long wanted to get them back. She doesn't want her mother's cherished things to fall into the hands of disgusting people. Now, isn't it an opportunity?

She squatted down and took the necklace off Su Xingqi's neck.

"What are you doing?" Su Xingqi was shocked and wanted to resist, but was restrained by the driver.

Su Xingyu calmly put the necklace away, and showed a sarcastic look to her: "you know what I'm doing, Su Xingqi, this necklace has been deposited with you for so many years, it's time to return to Zhao."

"You dare!" Su Xingqi screams. She knows the origin of the necklace in her heart, but she can't tolerate it being returned to its original owner, "Su Xingyu! Give me back the necklace! Or I'll wait for Dad to come back and make you look good! "

Su Xingyu sneers gently.

What else can they do to make her look good?

She has been framed to drop out of school, and will move to Lu Shifeng's side soon. After that, everyone will have nothing to do with her. The so-called father can no longer threaten her with things like tuition fees and residence. She wanted to endure for another two years and leave the family after graduating from University, but now she just moved ahead.

She asked the driver to tie up Su Xingqi's hands and feet and leave them in place.

Later, she took the driver to sweep around the house, found the pair of white jade earrings from Su Xingqi's room, subdued Liu Meizhi in the same way, and found the remaining three pieces of jewelry from Liu Meizhi's and Su's father's room.

In the voice of Liu Meizhi, she took the driver away.

When she returned to Lu's home, she put out all the five pieces of jewelry. Except for the white jade earrings and pink diamond necklaces, the other three pieces were a purple jade bracelet, an Emerald Diamond Necklace and a brilliant yellow diamond ring.

Every piece is valuable.

Su Xingyu fondly stroked them and recalled the scene when her mother held her and tried them on. A soft smile came on her lips“ Mom... "She murmured," my daughter is unfilial. I can't recover all your legacy, but I've got all these important things back. Your spirit in heaven... Will be more gratified. "

She sat in the room for a long time, a long time.

The sun is setting.

GUI Ma, the maid, came to knock on the door: "young lady, dinner is ready. Please come to dinner."

Su Xingyu answered a, put these jewelry away, discover a problem suddenly——

The pink diamond necklace was taken from Su Xingqi's neck. There was no jewelry box to fit it. Several other jewelry boxes brought out of Su's house were too old and worn in several places.

She still remembers that when her mother was dying, she once said that she wanted to make a set of beautiful boxes for these jewelry. The design drawings were all finished, but unfortunately, before it was implemented, the family suffered great changes.

Now these boxes... Are all improvised.

"It's time to prepare a new jewelry box." She was a little worried. Where did the money come from?

She had been thinking about it for days.

Now, although she is the young wife of the Lu family and Lu Shifeng has given her her vice card, she doesn't want to use his money. She had no choice but to marry him. She didn't want to become a dodder flower clinging to him. She even lost her last dignity.

We still have to find a way to make money.

To make money, it's natural to have a job, so she put in many resumes on the Internet to find a suitable job.

She didn't graduate from University, and she didn't have much work to do. It took her several days to get an interview invitation from an administrative assistant position in a small company. She packed herself up and went out to apply.

The housekeeper saw her and said, "young lady, are you going out? The driver has sent the young master out, but he hasn't come back yet. If you're not in a hurry, just wait a moment? In a few days, your exclusive driver will arrive next month. "Su Xingyu said: "no, I'm in a hurry. I'll take the bus myself."

The housekeeper was startled: "bus? Young lady, how can you sit in that kind of thing? It's too hard. "

Su Xingyu smiles: "what's the trouble? Before I married your young master, I used to take the bus."

"But," the housekeeper said bitterly, "it's not the same near here. It's a high-end villa area, and the bus stop is far away." People living in this area are rich or expensive. Who will take the bus?

Su Xingyu said: "it's a good day. It's a walk."

The housekeeper couldn't compete with her. She went out in high heels and walked further and further along the clean and beautiful forest.

The result of the interview was quite smooth, and her plain dress and conversation were very popular. The personnel of that company said to her, "the result will come out in two days. If there is no accident, you will get the job and look forward to working with you."

Su Xingyu is very happy, thanks her with a smile, and returns home in a good mood.

"The young lady is back." Seeing her coming in, GUI Ma, the maid, welcomed her with a smile and took her bag. "Tired, I'll pour you a glass of water. Dinner is ready. Young master is waiting for you

Is Lu Shifeng back?

Su Xingyu is a little surprised. The man goes out early and comes back late. He often comes back when she falls asleep. He has gone out before she gets up in the morning. It's rare that this point should be in China.

After washing her hands, she went into the restaurant and saw that he was seated and reading a political and business magazine.

The man is dressed in a home-based shirt. His cold eyes are dim under the soft light of the restaurant. His slender fingers gently twist the paper, which has a sense of stability. Su Xingyu's steps pause slightly. For a moment, she has an impulse to take this picture. He is so beautiful, it is a kind of beauty beyond appearance, a higher sense of pleasure. That kind of pleasing to the eye, touched her already into the blood of photography instinct.

She just looked at him for a few seconds.

Aware of her gaze, he raised his head.
