You Choose an Adopted Son, I Choose Madness - Chapter 133:

Chapter 133: Do You Need to Pick a Day to Hit Liu Yanan?

Su Zhenxing, his head aching, looked at Liu Yanan, who was relentless. He knew he had to explain everything clearly to her. Otherwise, she would continue to embarrass the Su family.

Pulling Liu Yanan to a corner, Su Zhenxing lowered his voice and explained the whole process of how Su Chen had obtained compensation.

In short, Su Chen had secured that million through his own tactics—it wasn’t something he got just by opening his mouth and asking for it.

Even if Su Mu wasn’t at fault today, without any skill, simply demanding compensation wouldn’t get him a cent.

Liu Yanan eyed Su Zhenxing suspiciously, doubting his words.

“Are you serious?”

“Su Chen is that capable?”

“I don’t believe it!”

“A kid raised in an orphanage—how could he have such deep schemes and tricks?”

“If you told me Su Chen acted crazy to demand compensation, I’d believe it.”

“But if you say he manipulated the Fang family and forced them to pay, I just can’t believe it!”

Then, Liu Yanan suddenly seemed to understand something, her expression twisting with fury. Her voice rose despite her attempts to suppress it.

“Good! So this is what it is, Su Zhenxing! You just favor Su Chen because he’s your biological son while Su Mu isn’t! That’s why you refuse to stand up for Su Mu, isn’t it?”

“I never thought you’d be so old-fashioned!”

“Fifteen years of father-son love between you and Su Mu—is that really worth less than two years of blood relations with Su Chen?”

“Su Zhenxing, when Su Chen went missing, who comforted you through that pain? Who cared for you every single day, warmed your heart, and brought you the joy of fatherhood?”

“It was Su Mu!”

“Have you forgotten all of that?”

Su Zhenxing’s face twisted with rage as he glared at Liu Yanan, his voice low but furious.

“Bullshit! I haven’t forgotten!”

“Of course, I remember the fifteen years of father-son bond with Su Mu.”

Liu Yanan grabbed Su Zhenxing’s clothes and pushed him toward the Fang family, her eyes filled with a strange light, her face both furious and anxious.

“If you haven’t forgotten, then go fight for Su Mu’s justice!”

“All Su Mu is asking for is a mere million!”

“Su Chen wasn’t even injured, and he got a million!”

“Su Mu’s nose is destroyed—why shouldn’t he get a million too?”

Although Su Zhenxing believed their voices were low enough that the Fang family wouldn’t hear them, Liu Yanan’s absurd words made the back of his head and neck burn. He could almost feel the mocking stares sweeping over him.

Despite Liu Yanan pushing him toward the Fang family, urging him to demand compensation, Su Zhenxing remained unmoved.

Liu Yanan grew more anxious, her voice almost rising beyond control.

Su Zhenxing’s head buzzed, and his entire body burned with humiliation. Between the embarrassment and Liu Yanan’s incessant nagging, he grew increasingly frustrated.

At first, he had stood firm against her shoving.

But then, suddenly, he moved.

Not toward the Fang family.

Instead—

His hand shot up and struck Liu Yanan hard across the face.

Slap!

The Fang family, who had been murmuring among themselves, instantly fell silent.

Su Mu and Su Qiqi, who had been staring at Su Zhenxing with looks of grievance and confusion, were completely stunned.

Everyone stared in shock at Su Zhenxing and Liu Yanan.

Even Liu Yanan herself, her head turned to the side, clutching her stinging cheek, couldn’t believe it.

Su Zhenxing had actually slapped her.

And in front of so many people!

How was she supposed to maintain her reputation in the high society of Haishi after this?

Su Zhenxing looked down at his hand, momentarily stunned.

Meanwhile, Su Chen laughed in delight, almost ready to clap.

Hadn’t he said so?

The real show was about to start!

Chewing on some dried fruit, Su Chen raised his teacup and, ensuring Liu Yanan could see, made a toast in her direction, smiling before taking a long sip.

Liu Yanan’s eyes nearly bulged out of their sockets, her fury consuming her.

Was Su Chen mocking her?

Yes, he definitely was!

Liu Yanan lost all reason, lunging at Su Zhenxing with her nails aimed for his face, screaming in rage.

“Su Zhenxing, you bastard!”

“How dare you hit me?!”

“I’ll scratch you to death!”

Watching her go wild, Su Zhenxing felt an overwhelming sense of disgust.

Was this really the gentle, virtuous woman he had fallen for in his youth?

How had she turned into such an unreasonable, shrieking shrew?

Suddenly, Su Zhenxing didn’t regret hitting her.

He had done it.

Did he really need to pick a special day to hit Liu Yanan?

She deserved it!

As Liu Yanan clawed at him without regard for the people around them, Su Zhenxing raised his other hand and struck her other cheek.

Slap!

Liu Yanan clutched her face, staring in disbelief.

He had hit her again!

This time, she completely lost it.

Flailing wildly, she screamed, her voice hoarse with fury.

“Su Zhenxing, you bastard!”

“You deserve to die! You deserve to die!”

“I’m going to kill you! Kill you!”

Su Zhenxing shoved her against the wall and hissed coldly into her ear.

“Liu Yanan, if you keep making a scene—”

“We’ll get a divorce.”

“I won’t let you disgrace the Su family any further.”

Divorce?!

Just because he refused to demand compensation for Su Mu, Su Zhenxing wanted a divorce?

Liu Yanan stared into his cold, ruthless eyes and saw that he meant it.

She was truly heartbroken.

She had been with Su Zhenxing for so many years, given birth to his children, and now, he was willing to throw all that away over something so trivial?

Liu Yanan didn’t want a divorce.

Fine. If not making a scene was what it took, then she wouldn’t make a scene.

Shoving Su Zhenxing away, she turned and ran upstairs.

Su Zhenxing adjusted his disheveled clothes, then turned back to the Fang family with a perfectly calm smile.

“Ahem… Yanan isn’t feeling well, so she’s gone upstairs to rest.”

The Fang family nodded repeatedly, saying nothing.

Yes, they understood perfectly.

There was no need for Su Zhenxing to explain.

Then, Fang Hao asked, raising an eyebrow, “So, about what Liu Yanan said regarding our Fang family compensating Su Mu…?”
