Chapter 1927: Chapter 2013: Lawful Citizen
"Of course I know, I’m a law‑abiding citizen, I’m such an honest person..."
"Alright, alright... cut the act. He’s the chairman of Junyue Group in the Imperial Capital, you think he needs to force himself on your daughter? You’re overthinking it! You must be crazy from trying to extort money!"
One of the policemen said in open contempt. Su Xuan really was a genuine public figure now, so these cops all recognized him!
"..."
In that instant, Zhou Sixue’s mother was struck dumb. This punk is a chairman? How is that possible!
"Captain, isn’t this kid one of those little thugs who were suspected of going to the school to extort money?"
At that moment, one policeman took out a tablet, looked at Zhou Ruofeng and hurriedly said.
When Zhou Ruofeng heard that, he immediately tried to run, but that cop lunged forward in a single stride and kicked him straight into the air. With a thud, that one kick sent the guy sprawling face‑first like a dog eating shit!
"Ah... Mom, save me, Mom, save me!"
Only then did Zhou Ruofeng realize he should be scared, and two policemen rushed up and cuffed him with a click!
"Ah... impossible, you must’ve arrested the wrong person. My son is excellent, my son is so well‑behaved, he would never do such a thing, you’ve definitely made a mistake!"
Irony. At that moment everyone felt this was really ironic. This woman had called the police to arrest Su Xuan, but as soon as the officers saw him, they didn’t so much as lay a finger on him. Instead, they dragged this walking disaster away!
"Hmph, take a look, isn’t this your son? Your boy went to school with a bunch of little thugs to get into a fight, and even injured people. Didn’t expect him to be hiding out here. Behave yourself!"
The policeman gave Zhou Ruofeng a kick on the butt!
The next second everyone was speechless. Zhou Sixue’s mother snatched the tablet over and smashed it, then shouted:
"No, I didn’t see any evidence. You don’t have evidence so you can’t arrest my precious baby boy!"
Seeing this, Su Xuan could only shake his head helplessly. Loving your son is fine, but if a mother won’t even let her kid shoulder responsibility when he’s clearly in the wrong, then this son will only go further and further down the wrong path and end up more and more miserable.
"Are you sick in the head? You think our police station doesn’t have backups?"
One policeman said with utter disdain, and in that instant Zhou Sixue’s mother collapsed to the ground. She couldn’t accept it; even now she still believed her son was very, very outstanding.
"Daring to destroy public property? Take her back with us too!"
One cop said angrily. He really hadn’t expected to run into such a crazy shrew, completely unreasonable!
"Ahem... guys, just let it go. Take this little bastard back, I’ll pay for the tablet."
Su Xuan said softly. He loathed this woman, but after all, she was Zhou Sixue’s mother. This kind of damage‑to‑public‑property charge could be light or heavy; if it got blown up it would be a headache to deal with.
"Mr. Su, you’re too polite. Since you’ve spoken, we won’t make things hard for her. Take this little bastard away!"
The captain said, and the others took Zhou Ruofeng away. Zhou Sixue’s mother cried her heart out in agony, completely unable to accept it.
"Mom, save me, I don’t want to go to jail!"
Only at that moment did Zhou Ruofeng truly feel afraid. Some things, he now realized, really were terrifying.
"Xue’er, hurry and get your boyfriend to save your brother, you must save your brother. If he goes in, he’s finished. He can’t go to prison—how will he get a wife in the future?"
Zhou Sixue’s mother could also see that Su Xuan seemed very capable. She had just smashed the police’s tablet; this kind of thing could be big or small. If they seriously pursued it, that would be obstructing official business and destroying public property. Even if she didn’t end up in jail, a fine would be guaranteed. But Su Xuan only said one sentence, and the cop stopped making it hard for her!
In that moment she realized how powerful Su Xuan was, so now she could only beg her daughter!
Zhou Sixue gave a bleak little laugh as tears streamed down. When had she ever truly had a place in her mother’s heart?
"Su Xuan, let’s go. Take me away from here."
Zhou Sixue really wanted some quiet. She was exhausted by this family, completely worn out. In her mother’s eyes, the son was everything, the son was what mattered. As for the daughter, she existed solely as a tool to serve the son—dispensable, utterly unimportant.
Thinking of all this, for a moment Zhou Sixue found it all absurdly ironic. In her mother’s eyes, was she really this worthless?
"Let’s go."
Su Xuan didn’t feel much sympathy for this kind of woman either. Some people, even if they’re family, if you really want to help them, you have to make them understand who is truly good to them, and let them see that not everyone’s help is something they’re entitled to by default.
"You’re not allowed to leave. Xue’er, if you walk out that door, you’re no longer my daughter!"
Same old trick. She’d used this card more times than anyone could count. In the past, Zhou Sixue was completely helpless against it, every time letting this line shackle her.
"Then so be it! I’m really tired. Worst case, I’ll bear the name of being unfilial and heartless. In your eyes, haven’t I already been that way for a long time?"
Tears rolled down. From what happened today, Zhou Sixue finally understood: Su Xuan did all this to make her see that sometimes you have to be ruthless. As the saying goes, to cure a chronic illness, you need strong medicine.
She had muddled through over thirty years like this. Back then she’d had good grades and gotten into a key university, but her mother wanted her useless little brother to attend some top‑tier middle school, so she gave all of Zhou Sixue’s tuition money to that brother, and Zhou dropped out.
Looking back, it was just like Su Xuan had said. If things continued like this, there would never be an end. They had already treated her as a cash cow.
"You get back here, you unfilial girl! If you don’t come back, I’ll drink this pesticide right now!"
"Ahem..."
In that instant, Zhou Sixue almost spat blood. Her body froze in place. Su Xuan also let out a helpless sigh, then turned back and said:
"Go ahead and try. Let me tell you, if you drag Zhou Sixue down into a place of no return, I won’t mind making sure that ’excellent’ son of yours spends the rest of his life in prison. See if I can do it or not."
Su Xuan sneered. This time he had to push Zhou Sixue to cut the cord. They couldn’t keep going like this—otherwise sooner or later she’d fall right back into that vicious cycle, and that would truly be a tragedy.
"You..."
The bottle of pesticide slipped from Zhou Sixue’s mother’s hand and fell to the ground, and her whole body collapsed weakly.
