Shanshan sniffed, tears falling rapidly.
Bai Shunyuan glanced at Su Xiaong behind Shan Minglang and said calmly, "Since it’s a misunderstanding, let’s all take a step back and let it go."
Su Xiaong inwardly despised the one called Bai Shunyuan.
But she didn’t plan on being aggressive, tugging at Shan Minglang to leave, but he didn’t seem inclined to go.
"Let it go? Brother Shunyuan, I call you brother, but your girlfriend bullying my senior doesn’t seem like sothing that can just end with a ’let it go’, right?"
Shan Minglang said confidently.
Su Xiaong’s mouth slightly opened...
This Shan Minglang is not willing to stop?
Bai Shunyuan raised an eyebrow, "Then what do you want?"
"Forget your girlfriend, she’s already been kicked by my senior, so that’s evened out. But this senior... should at least bow and apologize? Also, Brother, your friends need to take off their masks to let and my senior get to know them, right?"
Su Xiaong looked at Shan Minglang, his voice still bright and cheerful, his tone amicable, but...
After all, he’s Yin Shixiu’s nephew, this family isn’t easy to ss with.
Shan Minglang spoke to this point, she naturally couldn’t say sothing like "let it go", and just quietly waited for Wang Wenlan’s apology.
But Wang Wenlan didn’t expect things to turn out this way. She was rather proud, otherwise, she wouldn’t have co to Su Xiaong for trouble.
So at this mont, she was unwilling to apologize to Su Xiaong.
Shan Minglang saw she wouldn’t speak, but didn’t force it, calmly saying, "Since you won’t apologize, I’ll have to report the full story to the dean’s office and see what they say. But the trouble is, haha, Brother Shunyuan, and your girlfriend, you’ll have to make a trip too."
Su Xiaong looked at Shan Minglang...
Feeling a chill down her back.
She thought... this guy is a bit of a fool!
Bai Shunyuan glanced at Wang Wenlan.
Shanshan tugged at Wang Wenlan’s clothes, "Lanlan, just apologize first..."
Wang Wenlan took a deep breath, feeling annoyed, and said reluctantly, "I’m sorry."
"What?"
Shan Minglang blinked, pretending not to hear.
Wang Wenlan’s face turned red, and everyone was looking at her.
"I’m sorry."
She spoke a bit louder.
"So softly, my senior can’t hear."
Shan Minglang didn’t seem to intend to let Wang Wenlan go.
Su Xiaong shook her head quietly.
Appearing harmless and easy to bully, sunny and forward-looking, can often be internally dark, extrely cunning, and most difficult.
She absolutely cannot offend Shan Minglang easily in the future.
"I’m sorry!"
Wang Wenlan shouted her face flushed.
Bai Shunyuan feared Shan Minglang wouldn’t stop, so he spoke up, "That’s enough now."
Seeing Bai Shunyuan saying so, Shan Minglang naturally wouldn’t be impolite, nodding, "Alright, we’re big-hearted, not the type to hold onto and bully my senior endlessly, we accept the senior’s apology!"
He laughed brightly, his tone very lively!
But Wang Wenlan felt like strangling Shan Minglang.
Shanshan clasped Bai Shunyuan’s arm, snuggling next to him.
Su Xiaong was just relieved when Bai Shunyuan brushed past her and stopped. He bent slightly and whispered in her ear, "Got quite a backing there, Su Xiaong..."
The heat from his breath brushed her ear.
Su Xiaong shivered, jumped away, and shot a fierce glare at his retreating back.
When they had walked away, Shan Minglang hurriedly pulled Su Xiaong to sit on the bench, "Aunt, did they hurt you?"
His concern made Su Xiaong a bit embarrassed, she touched her own face, muttering, "Got slapped, nothing else."
"Oh gosh, why didn’t you ntion the slap earlier?"
Su Xiaong saw his expression as if he had let them off too easily and couldn’t help but laugh.
"You’re smiling even though you were hit! If my uncle knew—"
"Don’t tell your uncle, do you hear ?"
Su Xiaong hurriedly said seriously.
"Aunt, you’re silly, if my uncle knows, he’ll care more about you!"
Su Xiaong wanted to say, he already cares about ...
But she spoke seriously to Shan Minglang, "Didn’t you stand up for ? He’s busy at work, don’t bother him with these little things."
"Since you say so, I won’t say anything."
Shan Minglang laughed.
"Speaking of which, you got into A University, why didn’t you tell when you went to Chengdu?"
"At that ti, it wasn’t finalized yet! Stanford University in the United States also sent an acceptance letter, I was still hesitating then."
Stanford University...
Su Xiaong’s gaze towards Shan Minglang changed.
"You’re... really impressive?"
"Oh, my math and physics are okay!"
"...So what’s your major at A University?"
"Chinese Language and Literature!"
Su Xiaong stared at him, "Your sciences are good, why study arts?"
"But I like arts, sciences are too brain-intensive, if I keep at them, I’ll end up bald!"
Shan Minglang spoke so earnestly, as if he truly worried about baldness.
Su Xiaong swallowed, "So, you gave up the opportunity at Stanford to study literature at A University? Uh... did your grandmother... agree?"
"Oh! Speaking of that!" Shan Minglang slapped his thigh, "My grandma was almost driven crazy by !"
Su Xiaong’s eyebrows twitched.
She thought as much...
Although A University is prestigious, its literature major isn’t top-notch. Compared to Stanford, which is the better choice, it becos imdiately obvious.
"But I secretly refused Stanford, and she couldn’t do anything about it."
Shan Minglang said proudly.
Su Xiaong felt a bit sympathetic for Zhou ngqin at this mont.
Hmm... Neither the son nor the grandson are easy to handle.
"But the main reason I ca to A University is because you’re here, Aunt ng!"
Su Xiaong’s knee softened, wanting to kneel again!
Don’t pin everything on her. How much would Zhou ngqin hate her if he kept saying things like that?
"And my sister is here too! So I can co find you guys to hang out every day!"
Shan Minglang crossed his arms and legs and said happily.
Su Xiaong gave him a glance...
"Ahem, did you co to find for sothing?"
"Yeah, I ca to hang out with you!"
Shan Minglang smiled at her, "By the way, until what ti is your class today?"
"Four o’clock."
"I’m also done at four, Aunt ng... After class, can I go see the little brother and sister?"
"Hmm... sure."
Su Xiaong nodded.
Originally, she would habitually make fun of Shan Minglang for almost having hard the little brother and sister, but considering she gained so much new understanding of this guy today.
She swallowed her words.
"Ah, that Bai Shunyuan, what’s your relationship with him?"
Su Xiaong suddenly rembered and couldn’t help asking.
"Well, we used to play together when we were kids."
"You call him ’brother’? So respectful?"
"I don’t want to, but he bullies people too much."
Shan Minglang recalled how Bai Shunyuan bullied him in his childhood, and even now, thinking about it made him shiver.
Su Xiaong raised her eyebrow, "Seems like the ’turnip head’ nickna didn’t co from nowhere..."
Shan Minglang quickly straightened his back, "I just developed slower than him when I was young, but now I’m not too far behind!"
Su Xiaong chuckled, indeed, he dared to challenge directly now.
"Today, since Brother Shunyuan is here, I can’t go too far. If my brother were back, humph! Even Brother Shunyuan wouldn’t stand a chance, his so-called girlfriend, would have already been thrown into the river by my brother!"
"Hmm..."
Su Xiaong thought for a mont; it seed that Shan Mingxu was indeed much tougher than Shan Minglang.
"Hey... Brother..."
After saying this, Shan Minglang suddenly fell into a rather gloomy mood, sniffing, "I wonder if he’s doing well in the army..."
"Ahem, show a bit of ambition, will you?"
Shan Minglang rubbed his nose and then looked at Su Xiaong, "As long as I’m here, Brother Shunyuan wouldn’t dare bully you, rest assured."
Su Xiaong squinted her eyes with a smile and nodded.
After class, Su Xiaong stepped out of the academic building and saw Shan Minglang waiting for her at the bottom.
The two of them left the school together.
A dark grey Audi was parked at the school gate, which was specifically responsible for picking up Su Xiaong.
The driver was personally hired by Yin Shixiu.
They didn’t head straight back to the apartnt, instead stopping at a supermarket where Su Xiaong bought so ready-made food and cooking ingredients.
They reached the apartnt a little after five.
Nanny Wang had just fed Shuangshuang; she lay in the crib with her wide-open eyes.
After helping Su Xiaong carry things into the house, Shan Minglang went over to see his sister and carefully picked her up.
"Shuangshuang, do you rember your brother? Oh, I’m Brother Minglang!"
Su Xiaong exchanged a few words with Nanny Wang and Nanny Chen, inquiring about the children’s situation, before they went off duty.
She walked to Huang Huang’s crib, watching her son asleep inside.
Reaching out, she touched his little face.
Seeing he wasn’t awake, she went into the kitchen to wash the vegetables, searched a recipe online, and started preparing dinner.
When Yin Shixiu got ho from work, he saw Shan Minglang happily swaying with Shuangshuang in his arms.
Shuangshuang was babbling and drooling with joy.
"Ah, Uncle, you’re back!"
Yin Shixiu responded and wasn’t surprised to see Shan Minglang; he knew Shan Minglang got into A University.
"Ah ah!"
On hearing Yin Shixiu’s voice, Shuangshuang turned her little head and called twice.
"Uncle, Shuangshuang already recognizes people now?"
Shan Minglang found it amazing and was about to hand Shuangshuang over to him when Yin Shixiu stopped him. Yin Shixiu took off his jacket, went to the washroom to wash his hands, and then ca back to hold his daughter.
Shuangshuang clenched her little fists and rubbed against Yin Shixiu’s chin, laughing all the while.
Yin Shixiu kissed her hair.
"Prince Huang has been sleeping for a long ti."
With nothing to hold now, Shan Minglang finally rembered his sleeping brother Huang Huang.
At this, Yin Shixiu leaned over to take a look at Huang Huang, then carried Shuangshuang into the kitchen. Su Xiaong was tasting sweet and sour ribs and, seeing him back, offered a small piece to him, "Uncle, try this, is it too sweet?"
