At ten in the evening, Wang Ziran and Su Ruiyi, who were still eating and drinking at the night market, didn't realize they were being watched.
Wang Ziran: "Yiyi, I really can't eat anymore. Look at you, ever since we got here, you've only taken one bite of everything and given the rest to me..."
Su Ruiyi: "Eat up, eat up, boss, another skewer of grilled squid!"
Wang Ziran: "No... I can't, it's all the way to my throat. I'm going to throw up if I eat any more!"
Su Ruiyi: "But I think your mouth is quite big, how can you not be able to eat more?"
Wang Ziran: "Having a big mouth doesn't mean having a big stomach..."
Su Ruiyi watched Wang Ziran burp continuously with a smile. She suddenly fell silent, which made Wang Ziran start to feel scared.
After a minute of reflection, Wang Ziran finally realized that Su Ruiyi was still angry about him calling Ou Yunchen a certain type of bartender.
Wang Ziran: "Grandma, I was wrong. I promise, I'll never speak carelessly about Ou Yunchen without investigating first again."
Su Ruiyi: "You're not speaking carelessly, you're jealous that Ou Yunchen is better than you."
Wang Ziran: "Yes, yes... I'm jealous..."
Wang Ziran: "I'm not jealous at all. What's so good about him? He's old and ugly..."
Su Ruiyi's glare silenced Wang Ziran.
Wang Ziran: "Okay, I won't investigate anymore. As long as you're not angry, I'll do anything."
Su Ruiyi: "Then you're not allowed to badmouth our Ou Yunchen anymore!"
Wang Ziran reluctantly said, "I swear..."
Suddenly, car headlights shone on Su Ruiyi and Wang Ziran. The bright light made them quickly cover their eyes with their hands. They squinted towards the direction of the headlights.
As they looked at the man and woman getting out of the car against the glare, Su Ruiyi gasped.
Butler: "Miss, Madam wants you to get in the car."
Wang Ziran looked at Su Ruiyi's pale face. He reached out and held her hand, as if to comfort her and tell her not to be afraid.
Wang Ziran: "Tell Mrs. Su that I'll take Su Ruiyi back."
The Su family butler naturally wouldn't dare to offend Young Master Wang. He bowed and went to relay the message.
A moment later, he returned.
Butler: "Young Master Wang, Mrs. Su says she won't trouble you."
After all, they were just two children. Even if Wang Ziran wanted to be assertive in the Su family, he had to be polite. What if Mrs. Su was his future mother-in-law? He didn't dare to disobey his future mother-in-law's orders.
Everyone waited for Su Ruiyi to get up. Wang Ziran's tightly clenched hand loosened slightly due to Mrs. Su's firm attitude.
The butler whispered something to Su Ruiyi: "Miss, Master is waiting for you at home."
Su Ruiyi trembled all over. She looked at Wang Ziran, but she knew that even this good friend couldn't help her...
Just then, Mrs. Su got out of the car. Her high heels made a "click-clack" sound on the dirt ground. The short distance of less than ten meters put immense pressure on Su Ruiyi.
When Mrs. Su reached the dining table, she said to Wang Ziran, "Young Master Wang, it's getting late, you should go home."
Wang Ziran could tell that Mrs. Su meant for him to leave quickly, and that he couldn't stop the Su family's determination to take Su Ruiyi home.
Su Ruiyi looked up and saw the bruises on Mrs. Su's arm again. Even if she wanted to resist, she instantly lost the strength to argue.
She should have realized when the butler reminded her that her father was home that her mother must have argued with her father again, otherwise she wouldn't have come out to drag her back herself.
Perhaps because she had a little to drink, Su Ruiyi, who was usually very obedient to Mrs. Su, suddenly had a moment where she wanted to fight for a chance at freedom for herself!
The more she looked at the bruises on Mrs. Su's arm, the angrier she became!
It wasn't because her father had hit her mother, but she couldn't understand!
Was her mother always submissive? Did she have to endure it all? Besides being beaten and scolded, were there no other choices?
If it weren't for her mother's weak and incompetent personality, she wouldn't have become like this!
Su Ruiyi clenched her fists, stood up abruptly, and walked in front of Mrs. Su, saying word by word: "I, am, not, going, back!"
Su Ruiyi's defiance completely shocked Mrs. Su.
Mrs. Su: "Say that again!"
Su Ruiyi: "I said I'm not going back today!"
Mrs. Su: "Take the young lady back by force!"
At this moment, the surrounding servants began to step forward. They heard Mrs. Su's command and prepared to grab Su Ruiyi.
Su Ruiyi shouted, "Try to grab me!"
Perhaps startled by Su Ruiyi's sharp voice, those people were indeed a little timid and didn't dare to step forward.
However, Mrs. Su's attitude was extremely firm. Today, she was determined to take the disobedient heiress back.
Instantly, two men grabbed Su Ruiyi's arms.
Su Ruiyi was no pushover either. She kicked over a table, attracting more onlookers!
Wang Ziran also helped Su Ruiyi. It seemed Su Ruiyi was determined to take a gamble and find an opportunity to escape.
In the chaos, Ou Yunchen's car stopped nearby.
He was just passing by and happened to see Mrs. Su, then Su Ruiyi and Wang Ziran fighting. It looked like the heiress was in trouble again.
Ou Yunchen called out Su Ruiyi's name in her direction. Su Ruiyi, alert, heard Ou Yunchen's voice and quickly looked in that direction!
Indeed, when she saw Ou Yunchen's car, she excitedly shouted, "Save me."
