Yin Shixiu cleared his throat, then pretended not to hear anything and turned on the music...
"Yin Shixiu, you—"
Su Xiaong was so angry she felt like killing him!
What kind of husband, what kind of father is this!
Shuangshuang tugged at Su Xiaong’s clothes again, gesturing the two’s positions with her hand...
Xiao ng could only guess...
"Uh, Shuangshuang wants to sit with brother?"
Shuangshuang quickly put her hand to her mouth, gesturing for her to lower her voice, and then nodded her head very cleverly.
Su Xiaong felt it was too dangerous to let Shuangshuang loose in the car, but seeing her daughter so anxious, she still unbuckled her from the safety seat.
She lifted her over to the sa side as Shuangshuang.
Prince Huang saw Shuangshuang coming over and imdiately gave her a dismissive look before continuing to stare out the car window.
Shuangshuang sat next to Prince Huang, her little feet rocking back and forth on the leather seat, curling all her ten little toes, then touched Prince Huang with her hand, "Gou Gou... stinky Yaya..."
Xiao ng cautiously protected Shuangshuang beside her, watching her daughter’s mischievous antics with a feeling of exasperated amusent.
Prince Huang ignored her.
But Shuangshuang is not one to give up easily. Seeing her brother deliberately ignore her, she beca even more persistent in her efforts to get closer.
Every now and then she’d touch Prince Huang’s hand, then give his hair a little tug, and then lean in with a kiss...
Anyway, before long, Shuangshuang had successfully cozied up to the local camp, clinging completely to her brother.
Xiao ng was afraid she’d fall, so she kept an arm wrapped around her little waist.
"Gou Gou, fragrant..."
Shuangshuang rubbed Prince Huang’s hand against her mouth affectionately.
Prince Huang finally couldn’t keep up his indifferent act. He pointed to the infant seat on the other side and said to Shuangshuang, "Sit!"
"Ah!"
Shuangshuang, seeing Prince Huang finally speaking, excitedly exclaid.
"Sit!"
"Ah!"
"Sit!"
"Ah!"
"Ah ah!"
All the way ho, it was just Shuangshuang’s little exclamations that ca out from ti to ti, until the car stopped at the house, and the little girl finally looked a bit sleepy.
Prince Huang was also thoroughly tornted by Shuangshuang!
But Su Xiaong clearly sensed that Prince Huang was slowly letting go of his awkwardness.
After getting ho, the two of them took a long nap, and when they woke up at dinner ti, they were as close as if they were one.
At night, while going to bed, Su Xiaong leaned against Yin Shixiu, hugged his waist, and muttered, "Prince Huang’s character is just like yours, bottling everything up inside, so bad."
Yin Shixiu clasped her hand, "I thought you loved because I’m bad."
Su Xiaong looked up, opened her eyes, and suddenly laughed, giving him a glance, "I hope Huaiyu won’t be as narcissistic as you in the future."
Yin Shixiu leaned down to kiss her nose, then her little mouth, and slowly, as emotions deepened, they couldn’t stop themselves, and the temperature in the bedroom kept climbing, love whispers filling the night.
Xiao ng had only been back in Beijing from Chengdu for about a week.
She then saw on the local news on TV that Chengdu City Governnt officials had been arrested for corruption and bribery.
The main culprits were two people, one the deputy mayor, the other the forr secretary-general Su Jianyi.
When she saw the news, Xiao ng’s first reaction was that it served them right, and then she thought...
She had once told Yin Shixiu to "get revenge" for her...
When Yin Shixiu got back, the news had just finished airing, and Xiao ng went up and asked, "Did you have a hand in Su Jianyi’s situation?"
Yin Shixiu glanced at her, "What situation?"
Su Xiaong saw he didn’t know... and couldn’t help but be suspicious, "Su Jianyi and that deputy mayor who always protected him have both been taken down, you don’t know?"
"Oh."
Yin Shixiu responded, Su Xiaong blinked, "All you have to say is ’oh’? Nothing else?"
Yin Shixiu pulled her hand to his shirt buttons, chuckling, "Help take off my clothes, I’m going to shower."
"Do it yourself."
As soon as Su Xiaong finished speaking, she tried to pull her hand back, but couldn’t. Yin Shixiu’s grip was strong.
"Then I’ll help you undress, and you tell if you did it?"
As soon as Su Xiaong said that, he nodded imdiately.
She undid his shirt buttons one by one, revealing his firm, hot chest.
Xiao ng’s soft fingertips inadvertently brushed over his skin; she wasn’t thinking anything, but Yin Shixiu’s gaze on her grew increasingly heated.
"Speak."
Xiao ng took off his shirt, leaving a certain man bare-chested—looking incredibly sexy.
Yin Shixiu pointed to his suit pants, raising an eyebrow.
Su Xiaong took a deep breath, unbuckled his belt, pulled down the zipper, stared at him with wide eyes, and gritted her teeth, "If you keep stalling, you’re dead at!"
But as soon as she finished speaking, Yin Shixiu scooped her up, "On second thought, let’s shower together."
"Yin Shixiu! You haven’t answered yet!"
Just like that, the sound disappeared into the bathroom. More than an hour later, the two of them ca out, and Xiao ng leaned against the wall, only feeling her legs go weak.
Yin Shixiu dried his hair while indifferently saying, "How could I have such skills? If a figure like the Deputy Mayor were to fall from power, it would surely be because soone behind him is trying to bring him down."
"However, to bring down soone at the level of a mayor is also very difficult. If I wanted to remove a political enemy, I would definitely start with soone close to him..."
"What does that an?"
"Su Jianyi used to be the Deputy Mayor’s favorite. His double-dealing nature is well known to those who have long been in contact with him. Now his position keeps falling, with everyone watching."
"He’s disgruntled and doubtful about life. If the Deputy Mayor no longer shields him, it becos easy for others to target him."
"Soone as short-sighted as Su Jianyi, if given so imdiate advantages, would probably say anything."
Su Xiaong looked at him, frowning slightly, "Really, it has nothing to do with you?"
"Hmm..."
Su Xiaong knew it!
She walked up to him and tugged him to sit on the bed. Yin Shixiu smiled at her, "I just ntioned the na ’Su Jianyi’ to those who wanted the Deputy Mayor to step down."
Xiao ng rolled her eyes at him, "I knew it, you’re unbelievably wicked! Killing without shedding blood!"
"Why? Do you think Su Jianyi shouldn’t go to jail?"
"Of course he should!"
Su Xiaong quickly replied, "People like him should be jailed. Whenever I think of Third Grandpa suffering in the nursing ho, my heart aches."
Yin Shixiu patted her head.
"But I always feel political struggles are terrifying. I don’t want you getting involved in things that are aningless just to doom Su Jianyi."
"Relax, I know my limits."
"You always know your limits, it’s just overthinking."
Su Xiaong fell backward.
Yin Shixiu lowered his head to kiss her lips, "The Deputy Mayor always protected Su Jianyi, and Su Jianyi is no good person. Obviously, the Deputy Mayor must have done a lot of shady dealings in the dark."
"I did nothing but say a couple of words, words that anyone with a bit of intelligence could deduce."
"Fine, fine, you always manage to keep yourself clean."
Su Xiaong chuckled.
This world has too many people like Su Jianyi, people with bad character, yet have power and influence. Many dislike him, but cannot take him down.
So whether or not Yin Shixiu intervened, she felt Su Jianyi deserved his fate.
But Su Xiaong never thought...
While she felt appeased by Su Jianyi’s arrest, two days later, two bloody incidents occurred in Chengdu.
One involved the arrested Deputy Mayor being poisoned to death in the detention center, and whether he was murdered or committed suicide is still under investigation.
The other incident left Su Xiaong trembling with fear.
Two days after Su Jianyi was imprisoned, one afternoon, Su’s father was busy in the flower shop as usual.
Suddenly, nearly ten n with machetes stord into Su’s father’s flower shop and smashed the place to bits.
Despite Su’s father’s effort to resist, he couldn’t fend off those large machetes. Fortunately, patrolling police passed by...
The thugs fled when they sensed trouble.
The clerk nad Hong Shu was hacked to death, and Su’s father injured, the blade cut an artery in his thigh, and he’s still in hospital undergoing resuscitation.
Xiao ng was horrified when she received the news, collapsing to the ground, unable to speak coherently.
Yin Shixiu imdiately arranged for Mr. Yin’s private plane. The children were sent to the Yin Family, and Old Master Yin, say no more, took Old Lin Housekeeper and followed Yin Shixiu and Xiao ng to Chengdu.
By seven that evening, they had arrived in Chengdu.
Before eight, Xiao ng was at the hospital where Su’s father was, from a distance she heard the heartrending cries.
She heard people calling out "Hong Shu," "Hong Shu"...
Hearing this made Su Xiaong’s heartache unbearable, but she had no ti to mourn for others, rushing to the operating room entrance where Su’s mother sat on a nearby bench.
Su’s mother sat bolt upright, with no sign of despondency on her face, no cries, no words, just staring intently at the operating room door.
Su Xiaong’s tears started to fall imdiately.
No matter how well her mother disguised it, as a daughter, Su Xiaong could instantly tell...
Her mother’s heart was in pain; her mother’s life seed hung in the balance, just like the father inside the operating room.
"Mom, mother..."
Xiao ng called softly,
Su’s mother ca back to herself, seeing Xiao ng had co. Her strong facade crumbled, she reached out to Xiao ng but couldn’t utter a word.
Xiao ng quickly embraced her mother, "Mom, it’s okay, Dad will be okay."
Su’s mother closed her eyes, her rigid body entirely resting against her daughter, as if finding a support.
Su Xiaong keenly felt her mother’s trembling.
Xiao ng didn’t dare to cry out loud, even though she was utterly worried in her heart.
When they received the call in Beijing, Su’s father had already been taken to the hospital; now that they were all here, more than five hours had passed...
Su’s father still hadn’t co out...
"ng ng..."
Su’s mother finally spoke, her voice broken and painful to hear.
