Chapter 255

Truly sinful, sinful.

I'll do some good deeds another day, donate some money to ease the guilt.

"Knock knock~~"

At that moment, early in the morning, Su Yi's office door was knocked on.

"Come in."

Su Yi put his legs down, and only after letting the person in did he realize.

It was Tony.

And the Tony who came in was quite at ease, like he owned the place.

He pulled out a chair and sat down himself.

Then he spotted two empty milk tea bottles on the desk and froze.

"You're binge-drinking milk tea first thing in the morning?"

"..." Su Yi let out a helpless sigh.

Then he swept the two bottles away and said.

"Binge-drink your grandma, I drank them yesterday, is it illegal not to throw them away?"

Tony shrugged.

"Ouch..."

The result was that his movement was too big.

Making his sunglasses knock against the bruise around his eye socket.

Tony first took off his sunglasses.

Su Yi laughed when he saw it.

"How did you get beaten into a panda?"

Yes.

Tony's left eye was black, bruised purple.

And Tony tossed the sunglasses aside, acting as if nothing had happened.

"Fell."

"Ah, right." Su Yi nodded, buying his story: "And you just happened to fall onto a fist, right?"

Tony twitched his mouth.

"If you put it that way, sure."

A man's gotta have a way out, give him a step down and that's enough.

If you keep harping on the fact that he got beaten, who could be happy?

You can't say you got beaten.

You have to say you accidentally bumped into it.

But Tony clearly didn't come today to chat about this.

He pulled out a business card from his collar.

Then handed it to Su Yi and said directly.

"I'm planning to take Pepper and buy a nature reserve to live in."

"So I probably won't be staying in the city much anymore."

"This is the address where I'm planning to build a wooden cabin myself. The circle is drawn because it's right around here. If you want to find me, just come straight here, you should be able to see the cabin."

"The milk tea project we're collaborating on has already produced quite a lot, and it'll start selling nationwide in the US in a few days."

"Also, the money will be automatically deposited into your account every year. If there are any issues, you can come find me directly."

"Hmm... let me think if there's anything else I haven't said."

After saying all this, Tony thought for a bit more.

Then he nodded and confirmed.

"There shouldn't be anything else to compensate, just these."

Su Yi took the business card.

Looked at the address on it.

Good lord, Tony had bought an entire nature reserve.

Although buying it was practically useless, for Tony it had to be his own.

And he only planned to build a wooden cabin.

At most, build some basements too.

That definitely wouldn't be a problem.

"Alright then." Su Yi pocketed the business card, then put it into the safe that was useless to him and said: "Decided to go into seclusion?"

"Phew..." Tony let out a long breath.

Then he nodded and replied: "Yes."

"Ever since the first time we finished chatting, the idea of going into seclusion has always been on my mind."

"Now that things have developed to this point, I think taking my family away is the best choice."

"These past years I've been too busy and too chaotic, never once taking Pepper's feelings into account."

"So I want to use the remaining time to make it up to her."

Hearing these words.

Su Yi nodded, fairly satisfied.

"Not a bad choice. At least Pepper will have true happiness from now on."

Tony was silent for a moment, then still added.

"But if some great crisis were to descend, I think I'd still do something."

A lingering warmth still remained in Tony's heart at this moment.

When facing a crisis, he would still think about doing something.

But Su Yi looked at him and suddenly asked.

"What if you had a child?"

"When you had a daughter, when you had a son, would you still do the same thing?"

"Would you still think the same as you do now?"

Once these words were spoken.

Tony was dumbfounded.

When he had come here to hand over the matters that followed.

He truly hadn't thought about the matter of children.

He had only just been thinking about retiring into seclusion.

Children...

All at once.

Tony began to imagine what his own child would look like.

But the question was just as Su Yi had put it.

When you had a child, would you still think the same as you do now?

The answer was.

"I don't know."

Tony thought for a while, then answered very bluntly.

"I can't choose on this kind of emotional question right now."

"If a child were a piece of data, maybe I could make a decision."

"But a child isn't a piece of data." Su Yi cut in.

"... Right, a child wouldn't be a piece of data." Tony drew in a long breath: "So I can't decide right now."

"People change. What I'm saying now doesn't mean I'll necessarily do it, and it'll be the same when that time comes."

Facing the question of children.

Tony's CPU was clearly about to burn out.

Because this wasn't a load or overclocking issue.
