At the thought of this, Old Master Su said, “Ruanruan, you must remember your sister if the Bo family hosts any banquets or social events in the future.”

Su Ruanruan lowered her gaze, her eyes filled with coldness. She looked up again and said obediently, “I understand.”

Auntie Su covered her mouth and laughed. “I knew you were a grateful child, Ruanruan. I know you won’t forget how well we treated you.”

Even Su Qionglin chimed in lazily, “Yeah, Ruanruan is the most obedient.”

Su Ruanruan saw her chance and said in a low voice to Old Master Su, “Grandpa, I want to work in the Tongsheng Hospital after graduating.”

Auntie Su’s heart skipped a beat. Did Su Ruanruan know something?

She turned to glance at Old Master Su.

As expected, Old Master Su flew into a rage and slapped her in the face. “You’re a girl! Do you think you can be a doctor? Look at how well Qionglin is doing in her career!”

Five angry red marks immediately appeared on Su Ruanruan’s face.

She cupped her face but remained silent.

Old Master Su felt a little guilty.

He had been slightly too heavy-handed. It wouldn’t be good if the Bo family saw this.

Seeing that the atmosphere was cold, Auntie Su pretended to persuade her. “Ruanruan, if you can’t find a job in the future, you can always look for your Sister Qionglin! Besides, the Bo Family’s Imperial View Corporation is so big. You don’t have to be afraid of having nowhere to go.”

She chuckled and continued, “The pharmaceutical research and development department of the Imperial View Corporation is second to none. Ruanruan, don’t forget to fight for the right to use the newest drugs for our hospital in the future.”

Everything Auntie Su had said was for her own benefit, but to Su Ruanruan, it sounded like a way out.

She caressed her slightly swollen face and wondered, ‘Why didn’t I think of that?’

At this moment, Old Master Su’s tone softened as well. “I was too anxious just now. Did I hurt you?”

He glanced at Auntie Su, who immediately went to get some medicine for Su Ruanruan. After applying it, she examined the wound carefully. “The marks are almost gone.”

Su Ruanruan’s heart turned cold. She stood up gently. “The Old Madam is still waiting for me. I’ll go back first.”

Old Master Su had many things to tell her, but he was afraid that they would offend Old Madam Bo and ruin Su Qionglin’s future if Su Ruanruan were late, so he had no choice but to agree.

As soon as Su Ruanruan left, Auntie Su placed the ointment aside and smiled at Old Master Su, “Ruanruan’s all grown up. She even has a temper now.”

Old Master Su’s face sank.

Su Qionglin, who was watching from the side, sneered as she played with her nails.

‘Does Su Ruanruan think that she has ascended to the top? That’s just something I didn’t want! But now that Su Ruanruan’s valued by the Bo family, I can indeed use her…’

…

Su Ruanruan walked out of the Su family’s residence and was about to get into the car.

All of a sudden, a voice came from behind. “Ruanruan!”

She spun around, surprised to see him. “Second Brother, you’re back?”

It was Su Ru’an.

Eldest Uncle Su had three children. His eldest son, Su Minghua, had gotten married and had children. He was now working in the family’s hospital. The second son, Su Ru’an, was obsessed with art and had just returned from overseas recently. Lastly, his youngest daughter was none other than Su Qionglin.

No one in the Su family treated Su Ruanruan well, apart from Su Ru’an.

The young man walked over and patted her head. “Did you get hit again?”

Su Ruanruan shook her head.

Her cousin sighed softly and reached out to touch her face. “I saw everything.”

He placed a tube of ointment in her palm. “Remember to apply this ointment yourself.”

However, he did not want to let go of her hand. His voice was low. “Ruanruan, I can take you away.”

Su Ruanruan lowered her head and choked on her words, “The Old Madam treats me very well.”

She did not mention anything about Madam Bo and Bo Jingyuan making things difficult for her nor did she talk about Bo Jingyan bullying her.

Su Ru’an was stunned for a moment. After a while, he patted her head again. “Tell me if you get bullied.”

He took out another bank card and passed it to her, afraid that she would be aggrieved but have no money to spend on herself.

Su Ruanruan refused to accept it but her cousin stuffed it into her hands and left.

Su Ruanruan’s gaze remained on the ground for a long time..
