Surrounded by the Billionaire's Deep Doting-Chapter 482 - 358: Only Through Hardship Can One Rise Above

Chapter 482: Chapter 358: Only Through Hardship Can One Rise Above

Qin Hui had never been cursed like this before in her life, and for a moment, she couldn’t bear it. However, after taking a deep breath and getting ready to retaliate, she met Han Tan’s gaze...

Xiao Hui shrunk back like a turtle!

She closed her mouth and moved to the side, almost saying "Please, go ahead."

Qin Hui was furious with herself for not fighting back, but she really felt this man was the type who would hit a woman!

Seeing Qin Hui retreat to the side, Su Xiaomeng saw Han Tan walking straight towards her and instinctively stepped aside...

Unexpectedly, Han Tan stopped in front of Su Xiaomeng and handed her the book in his hand,

"This book is too difficult for someone at your level. You might as well return it and leave the resources for others."

No words of thanks, but instead he openly and secretly mocked her!

This man!!

Su Xiaomeng was about to get angry! Really about to get angry!!

Taking a deep breath again, she raised her head and opened her mouth——

"Yes, yes! I’ll return it later!"

Su Xiaomeng didn’t need to look to know her current bootlicking expression!

She sincerely took the book, waited for the guy to walk away slowly, but Han Tan was still standing in front of her...

Su Xiaomeng couldn’t help but lift her head again...

"Curly hair doesn’t suit you, it makes you look old."

"..."

After saying this, the guy walked away with big strides.

Su Xiaomeng was so angry her nostrils flared rapidly! She trembled as she pointed her finger at Han Tan’s back...

Qin Hui quickly walked over and hugged Su Xiaomeng,

"Let it go, let it go, calm down, calm down. It’s better to have less contact with this person, he seems quite dangerous."

"He said I look old, Xiao Hui, did you hear him? He actually said my curly hair makes me look old!!"

Her husband clearly said it looked great!

Qin Hui didn’t know exactly who Han Tan was, but felt that guy indeed gave off an air of danger.

He seemed to live in a completely different world from theirs!

The aura around him was too fierce!

"Am I wrong? When he stared at you, it felt like he could hit you the next second..."

Su Xiaomeng couldn’t help but mutter, defending herself.

Qin Hui nodded seriously.

With a sigh, the two no longer got tangled up with this weird person.

Xiao Meng had two classes this afternoon, one was Dick’s, after which she felt like she’d lost a layer of skin.

But the second class was Cherry’s, and her wounded soul was healed again.

Dick’s class was packed with content, coupled with Dick’s Indian accent, Xiao Meng hadn’t been able to get used to it, and the parts she didn’t understand in class were taken home to ask her tutor!

The so-called tutor was naturally her husband!

By contrast, Cherry’s classes were very comforting.

After two classes with Cherry, Xiao Meng found out that Cherry was already a specialized translator for United Nations conferences at a young age.

If you talk about the most beautiful translator in China’s translation circles now, who else apart from Cherry could claim this title?

Cherry had a very nice English name.

She had mentioned gracefully in class that this English name was given to her by her first love, Cherry sounded like Cherish, implying something precious.

A burst of cheers erupted after class, the girls’ eyes filled with envy, the boys’ hearts filled with jealousy.

Su Xiaomeng was no exception, just felt such a beautiful woman should have a love story like a Korean drama heroine.

She also had a nice Chinese name, Chu Jiao, "Jiao" means beautiful, truly a person who lived up to her name.

After class, Cherry was also a very approachable teacher.

If anyone had academic issues, as long as she was available, she would patiently explain.

Far better than Dick, who used "busy" as an excuse to keep students at bay all day long!

Of course... not many dared to ask Dick questions anyway.

Su Xiaomeng had the advantage of proximity, sometimes on weekends when Yin Shixiu was at home, Xiao Meng would grab her book and go to the 29th floor...

Whenever Cherry was available, she would help her solve two problems.

Su Xiaomeng often talked about how pretty and amazing her teacher was in front of Yin Shixiu.

But a certain someone showed no interest.

Su Xiaomeng actually thought that capable people knowing each other was quite nice.

Seeing that Yin Shixiu wasn’t interested in meeting her, Su Xiaomeng didn’t push it.

But secretly, she felt delighted, just thinking that Yin Shixiu was very devoted to her, she couldn’t help loving him a bit more.

Friday afternoon, Su Xiaomeng didn’t have classes, Yin Shixiu was attending a lunch banquet in a city near Bath and said he would pick her up when it ended.

Xiao Meng didn’t let the driver wait and instead went to the library, barely turned a few pages before falling asleep from exhaustion.

Actually, everyone was working hard and tired, Xiao Meng was not an exception, getting into the University of Bath’s translation program already marked excellence.

But when all the exceptional people gathered together, everyone became less noticeable.

Everyone must work harder, practice more repeatedly, to become the best among the best.

Years of study ultimately aim to become an outstanding translator.

Now is considered the final phase, no one wants to lose at this stage.

When Su Xiaomeng spent more time than others on reading, others took it for granted.

Slow birds... if they don’t fly first, they might not be able to fly at all.

But, except for Qin Hui, no, even Qin Hui could not truly understand Su Xiaomeng’s exhaustion.

She was ultimately not just a "full-time" student, she was also a mother and a wife.

She had a pair of children to care for, a marriage to nurture.

She felt very tired but never mentioned a word about fatigue to Yin Shixiu, knowing her husband felt the same, neither wanting to neglect their social roles or family roles.

How many famous and powerful people give up family for career?

How many young, opinionated people give up family for ideals?

It’s not about someone being irresponsible to family, but rather that one’s energy is truly limited, achieving excellence in one aspect is already challenging, let alone juggling multiple roles.

Yin Shixiu set a good example for Su Xiaomeng.

There’s no reason her husband can balance both while she can’t hold on.

Yet, she appeared strong in front of everyone, except when video chatting with her mother, when she couldn’t help tearing up, admitting it’s hard...

Shuangshuang and Huang Huang were still too young to understand, plus they hadn’t been in London for long, it seemed they both were experiencing some culture shock.

The doctor had come to see them, prescribed medicine, which needed to be taken on time.

Academically, things were incredibly tough, probably because she’d never experienced such a high-pressure learning environment, feeling exhausted mentally and physically upon returning home each day.

Su’s mother, on the other end of the electronic screen, seeing her daughter show such vulnerability in front of her, felt her heart wrench.

If you can’t hold on, just come back...

Su’s mother particularly wanted to say this to Su Xiaomeng, but the words lingered at the tip of her tongue many times, swallowed back each time, ultimately not saying it.

Finally, she only said,

"Endure the hardships to become the best."

Yes, endure the hardships to become the best...

After saying these words, Su’s mother felt quite guilty...

It was truly insincere.

Everyone hopes their children can become outstanding, yet she and her husband didn’t have such high expectations for their daughter.

She didn’t need Xiao Meng to become the best, so she didn’t want her to suffer harshly.

If she couldn’t hold on, just come home, Dad and Mom will take care of you!

But these words are truly from them as parents who can’t bear to see their child suffer.

Yet the child’s life is ultimately their own... can’t spare them for a moment, can’t spare them for a lifetime.

Su’s mother really wanted to wipe away the tears on Xiao Meng’s cheek, but unfortunately, there was more than just a screen between them.

They were separated by half the globe.

"Ah, Mom, has Dad started with the garden yet?"

The garden Xiao Meng mentioned was the plot Yin Shixiu bought for Su Chengji.

Su’s mother laughed and said,

"Not yet, but your dad is already looking for someone to do the design."

"Make sure Dad takes plenty of rest, don’t let him tire out! Once he gets into these, he always forgets to rest!"
