Chapter 53: Shut Up

Translator: _Min_

Unfazed, Gu Dai locked eyes with Song Ling, his threatening aura bouncing off her. She jeered, “Not only do I dare to stand up to your mother, but I’ll stand up to you too! Have you entered your dotage, forgetting past events, and in need of me to help to revisit your memory?”

At her words, an incident at a bar flashed into Song Ling’s mind, his expression hardened as he warned, “Gu Dai, 1 hope you forget this incident quickly, or I’ll set my sights on Su Ting, making it impossible for him to stay in the industry!” “Mr. Song, feel free to try it!” retorted Su Ting.

Unfazed by the threat, wearing a smile, he strolled over to Gu Dai’s side, although his icy gaze was directed at Song Ling.

“I certainly will!” Song Ling shot back.

Su Ting and Gu Dai made a striking pair, but the sight of them together was like a dagger in Song Ling’s heart. He grumbled, “Su Ting, move aside. I need to speak with Gu Dai.”

Su Ting didn’t budge but turned to Gu Dai for her opinion.

“Don’t move,” Gu Dai gripped Su Ting’s arm and then faced Song Ling, “If you have something to say, spit it out.”

Song Ling gritted his teeth and nodded, his voice harsh, “Gu Dai, don’t think that after hitting my mom it’s over. Apologize to her!”

“No!” Su Ting interjected instantly.

Wang Lan initially wanted to deny the request herself but was surprised that Su Ting had preemptively declined.

A scowl spread across her face as she admonished Su Ting, “You, a famed international model, are so eager to curry favor with a woman that you can’t distinguish right from wrong!”

Su Ting’s frosty glance fell on Wang Lan before he disdainfully shifted his gaze and lightly commented, “My sister wouldn’t hit anyone without reason. If you were hit, it only means you stepped out of line!”

Song Yu burst out defensively, “How could we possibly bully anyone? You were outside the whole time, you didn’t witness what happened, and you’re just making assumptions. How can you justify the affection I’ve shown you over the years?”

Being an international superstar, Su Ting had numerous fans worldwide.

Song Yu was one of them.

Seeing Su Ting stand by Gu Dai, she was stunned.

She couldn’t fathom what Gu Dai had to charm the ordinarily aloof Su Ting into defending her so ardently!

A wave of fierce jealousy washed over Song Yu, who yelled, “Do you realize this woman is divorced? She’s just damaged goods! She’s a cheap woman who can’t do without men! She’s barely divorced my brother and now she’s already latching onto you!”

Su Ting’s fury was palpable, his eyes flamed red as he bellowed, “Shut up!”

Had Gu Dai not been holding him back, Su Ting would have already lunged at Song Yu.

Song Yu’s snide smile wavered, but before she could respond, she was met with a resounding slap. In disbelief, she looked at her usually loving brother, sobbing, “Brother, you actually hit me because of Gu Dai!”

Song Ling’s face turned stormy. He hadn’t expected his sister, whom he’d always seen as pure and kind-hearted, to spew such venomous words!

Seeing Song Ling disturbed brought Gu Dai immense satisfaction. Before she left, she kindly advised him, “There’s surveillance in the exhibit hall. If Mr. Song wants to know what just happened, he can check the footage.”

Song Ling stood rooted to the spot, sternly watching the backs of Gu Dai and

Su Ting as they walked away together. The chilling aura he emitted seemed capable of freezing everything in its vicinity.

At that moment, Song Ling acknowledged a hard truth. The Gu Dai standing before him was not the same as the Gu Dai he remembered from the past.

Wang Lan was severely disgruntled. Cradling the weeping Song Yu, she queried Song Ling, “How could you hit your sister, and just let that woman get away?”

In that moment, Song Ling realized that it wasn’t just Gu Dai who had become unrecognizable, but even his own family, who seemed far removed from the image he had of them.

Under Song Ling’s icy stare, Wang Lan grew less confident. She meekly turned her head away but couldn’t resist mumbling, “I didn’t say anything wrong though..”
