Chapter 274: Going to the United States

~22 min read 4,373 words

The afterglow of the setting sun spilled into the high-rise office through the two floor-to-ceiling windows.

Wang Lin sat upright in her mother's office chair, frowning, holding a pencil, and writing pinyin letters repeatedly on the desk in a serious manner.

Wang Yan sat on the desk, legs crossed, feet intertwined, swinging gently. He held the tea Xiao Xin had served, drinking while looking at the buildings in the distance, occasionally checking if his daughter's writing was going astray.

A child's patience is limited. Although Wang Lin was a bit stronger, she wasn't much better. For this kind of repetitive homework, she was mostly impatient. At first, it looked like something, but the more she wrote, the sloppier it became, which well reflected how irritable their hearts, scratched by little kittens, were.

The soundproof glass installed in the office worked well. Although there was a little sound from outside, the impact was no longer significant. For a while, there was only the sound of Wang Yan drinking tea and the rustling friction of Wang Lin's pen on paper.

After a while, the office door was pushed open. Su Mingyu walked in front with a click-clack, followed by Xiao Xin, who was holding things, walking into the office.

The little girl looked up and saw her mother, threw the pencil very freely, struggled to get off the high chair, and ran into her mother's arms: "Mom!"

"Hey, good daughter, were you happy at kindergarten today?"

"Happy." The little one muttered in Su Mingyu's arms: "But I wasn't happy after I came back."

"Why weren't you happy?"

Wang Lin was very aggrieved: "Because... because the teacher left a lot, a lot of homework..."

"Linlin, every child has to do homework. If you finish your homework, Mom will take you to eat something delicious and you'll be happy. Go write it quickly, we'll go eat something delicious after you finish."

Wang Lin sighed, reached out to push her mother away, got down from the embrace, let out a long sigh, and consciously climbed back to her seat to do her homework.

"Just a little one, why are you sighing for no reason?" Wang Yan couldn't laugh or cry, rubbed her head, and helped tidy up things: "Let's write here, Mom has to work."

"It's the same here, let her write there." Su Mingyu waved her hand to stop Wang Yan: "Mom has to do homework too, let's see who writes faster, okay?"

The little one responded weakly: "Okay..." The tail sound was drawn very long, and she was very unwilling. Really not taking the bean bun as dry food, did she think I, Wang Lin, was a three or four-year-old child?

No one paid attention to her, and it was fine if she wrote it herself.

Wang Yan looked through the emails sent by various leaders in charge in his mailbox on his mobile phone, bored. Most of them were copied to him, and only a few were reported directly to him. Of course, he didn't look at them often, just understanding the company's situation every once in a while.

On the sofa, Su Mingyu and Xiao Xin huddled together and whispered, talking about the situation in the company recently, as well as various matters of the branches in charge. Wang Yan had good hearing, and he heard all their whispers.

It was still the same as in the original drama, Meng Zhiyuan planning to go public and cleaning up the company. Of course, one of them was middle-to-high management, and the other was middle-to-low management. Even if they whispered, they couldn't whisper anything out; they were still standing in too low a position, and their view of problems was not comprehensive.

Wang Yan didn't like to manage those things either. Although he had always known, he had never told Su Mingyu those things. It was really useless, just let her toss.

And Su Mingyu hadn't told him about things in the company for a long time. On one hand, she had made great progress over the years, and on the other hand, she didn't want to bother Wang Yan with these small things. After all, with such a behemoth as Long Teng there, she was exhausted enough managing a branch, let alone Wang Yan having to teach and take care of the child. Although it looked easy, she felt it was just that Wang Yan didn't make a sound.

Wang Yan didn't know these things. If he knew, he would probably just smile it off. Because no matter how he said it, it looked like a man's responsibility to stand tall and support a family, and no one would believe that he really took it lightly. But in fact, he had been mixed up for so many years, and he had long ago figured out these things, and he could even play with his empire management all day, let alone a small company.

After another hour or so, the little girl had long finished her homework and was sitting there honestly watching cartoons on the computer. After Su Mingyu had been fiddling with the computer on the sofa for a long time, she closed the computer with a snap and put it in her bag, "Time to get off work." As she spoke, she stood up and stretched, highlighting her graceful curves, without any signs of being out of shape after having a child: "Linlin, don't watch cartoons, hurry up and go eat something delicious."

"Mom, you're finally done, I'm about to faint from hunger."

"It's Mom's fault for making Linlin wait so long. Let's go quickly, eat more later." Su Mingyu packed her little bag and reached out to hold Wang Lin: "Wang Laoshi, turn off the computer, my bag and Linlin's bag are handed to you."

"Let's go." Wang Yan turned off the computer, took his daughter's little duck schoolbag, as well as Su Mingyu's computer and fashionable luxury little bag, and followed behind.

Along the way, Su Mingyu greeted people, and the suppression of the lower-level by the upper-level was well reflected. In this, the gap in self-confidence between people was also well reflected. Some people, after calling "President Ming," retreated quickly; some people, after greeting, would praise the little girl for being beautiful and cute; some people would not only do this but also tease the little girl; some people would also tease Su Mingyu, praising Wang Yan in disguise...

Arriving at the underground parking lot, getting into the car, Su Mingyu naturally took the helm, Wang Yan was in the passenger seat as usual, and the little girl was shaking her short legs back and forth in the child seat while holding a water bottle.

With laughter all the way, they arrived at a classic southern architectural gathering area after a while and stopped in front of one of the courtyards.

The family of three got out of the car, Su Mingyu held Wang Lin and walked bouncing in front, while Wang Yan followed behind the mother and daughter carrying Su Mingyu's little bag.

Seeing the "Shihunzhe" written on the sign outside, it confirmed that it was exactly as he thought—it was the restaurant opened by Shi Tiandong. The style of this place was still enough. Although the building was newly built and made to look old, overall, it was very good, and he was also someone who knew how to enjoy himself. Or rather, he was an idealist with his own utopia.

Shi Tiandong's conditions were still good, he should be someone with money at home. Although he was too lazy to investigate, according to the performance in the drama, he had some background. It was mainly because it had nothing to do with him, so it was a waste of energy.

Following behind the mother and daughter, walking into the store, Shi Tiandong, who was busy in the open kitchen, cast his gaze over for the first time. At the same time, the cool little girl who looked like a boy under his hand stopped cutting vegetables, and a neutral voice sounded: "Welcome, find a place to sit yourself. There is a QR code on the table, scan the code to order, thank you."

Wang Yan saw it with his own eyes. Shi Tiandong's gaze when seeing Su Mingyu was surprise, then the gaze looking down at the little girl was disappointment, and then the gaze looking at him was "That day, a woman with a lot of personality came to my store, love at first sight. Every day I hoped to see her again, but seeing her again was often not as beautiful as in novels. She was married, she had a child. I had never had such beautiful longing in my life, nor had I ever had such a heart-dead gray. This world did not treat me gently, hoping and longing and then disappointed, specifically calling this pain to torture me."

Damn, this kid has quite a lot of drama.

The family of three found a place to sit down. The two took their mobile phones to scan the QR code on the table, and the little girl lay on Su Mingyu's arm to watch and order food. Because the plates were large and the dishes were few, although the plating was exquisite, it couldn't fill the stomach. While talking and laughing, they ordered a table full of food.

Shi Tiandong cooked quickly, with nimble hands and feet. After a while, the dishes they ordered were placed on the table.

Serving the last dish, Shi Tiandong backhanded the tray and looked at the little girl who was eating happily on the side with a smile: "Your daughter is very beautiful."

Being praised, the daughter was naturally happy. Su Mingyu patted the girl's head: "Uncle is praising you for being beautiful, hurry up and thank Uncle."

Wang Lin looked up, bared her teeth, and gave a sweet smile: "Thank you, Uncle." After finishing, she hurriedly lowered her head to eat.

"And very cute." Looking at that skillful response, Shi Tiandong laughed: "Eat slowly, such a cute little friend, 10% off for you."

The little girl knew that a discount saved money, and this time the smile was much brighter: "Thank you, Uncle."

Shi Tiandong shook his head and smiled, nodded politely at Wang Yan, then turned and left to go back to cook.

Not paying attention to Shi Tiandong, Wang Yan ate the food in big mouthfuls. Being able to open a restaurant, and with Su Daqiang smacking his lips like that, Shi Tiandong's craftsmanship was still okay, and he was indeed talented. In his feeling, it was about the LV4 medium level. Considering the influence of mood, the peak should be at the top of LV4, and individual dishes might break through to LV5. Overall, it was still quite good. At least he, Wang Yan, had been cooking for a long time on and off, but it had always been at the LV3 level, and there was still a serious distance from LV4.

The little girl wasn't that she hadn't eaten better, it was just that she might have been really hungry, and she ate sweetly. Su Mingyu ate while taking care of her daughter, wiping her mouth and drinking water, occasionally chatting with Wang Yan, blissful.

At this time, the mobile phone Su Mingyu put on the table rang. She picked it up and took a look, it was a strange call, and she answered it suspiciously: "Hello?"

【Novel app that has been running stably for many years, the source-changing app that old versions of bug-chasing are using, huanyuanapp.】

"Hmm, what's wrong, you say."

"About to die? So sudden? Can he still talk? You let him say two words to me."

"Which hospital?"

"Hmm, I know."

After finishing, she hung up the phone, looked at Wang Yan opposite, and said: "Zhu Li called, saying my dad is about to die."

Wang Yan shook his head and smiled: "I saw his body was good before, it's only been a few days."

Su Mingyu shrugged and put food for her daughter: "My mom is gone, no one is managing him, and this is how he's acting up. Anyway, we'll pass by on the way back later, let's go see."

Seeing Wang Yan staring at her, Su Mingyu rolled her eyes: "What kind of look is that? I'm not being cheap, anyway, it's boring to go back, it just happens to be on the way, let's go see the excitement, see how he's acting up with Su Mingcheng and his wife."

"Do whatever you want, but whether it's giving money to the old Su family or doing things, I think you should still discuss it with me. After all, I spent 500,000 back then, and I'm the head of the household."

"Virtue." Su Mingyu glared at Wang Yan, lowered her head to wipe her daughter's mouth, and then ate her own food, ignoring Wang Yan. She really wasn't soft-hearted. After so many years, she really had no hope for the old Su family. Mainly, she really understood Su Daqiang, and she really wanted to see how he was tossing Su Mingcheng, which could be considered a bad taste.

Actually, it was still Su Mingyu in the original drama who was not calm enough, and many things were considered with family affection. Now it was different, she could be considered a bystander who saw clearly. She had a clear understanding of the remaining three father and son of the old Su family.

Wang Yan didn't care either, continuing to eat and drink. People are changeable, fickle, and always changing, and he couldn't guarantee that Su Mingyu would never get involved. Anyway, taking out money and doing things was absolutely impossible, he had already put his words down. As long as Su Mingyu didn't get involved, his task would be completed quite well.

Just after eating a few mouthfuls, Su Mingyu's phone rang again. She picked it up and took a look, then answered: "Hello? Sister-in-law?"

"Oh, hung up."

Saying only one sentence, Su Mingyu hung up the phone, sighed helplessly, and smiled bitterly and shook her head: "Su Mingzhe called, you say how can he have such a big face? Always putting on the airs of an eldest brother with me. For so many years before, there was no contact, now that mom is dead, instead, he's getting enthusiastic, really."

Knowing it was said for him to hear, Wang Yan smiled: "Eat."

After eating, Su Mingyu went to pay the bill, scanning the code to pay. Thanks to Long Teng's strength, whether it was cooperation with banks or offline promotion, it basically moved along with 4G. Wherever 4G went, it was promoted there. Compared to the real world, the mobile payment application here was much earlier.

In Shi Tiandong's complex gaze with mixed emotions of regret and relief, Wang Yan, Su Mingyu, and Wang Lin, who was patting her little belly comfortably, the family of three went out, got into the car, and left, going to the hospital where Su Daqiang was.

After asking around, they found Su Daqiang, who was closing his eyes and groaning while receiving an IV in the emergency hall, Su Mingcheng sitting on the chair next to him, and Zhu Li standing on the side playing with her mobile phone.

Hearing the high heels coming from far to near, Su Daqiang opened his eyes, automatically ignored Wang Yan and the little girl held in his arms, tremblingly reached out his hand, and called out weakly and dyingly: "Mingyu, you finally came, Dad almost couldn't see you..."

Su Mingyu and Su Mingcheng looked at each other with disgust and didn't even look at him. She asked Zhu Li, who was standing on the side, with a smile: "Didn't you say he was about to die? Isn't he fine? What's the problem?"

Before Zhu Li could answer, Su Mingcheng, who was sitting, frowned and stood up, pointed, and said angrily: "Su Mingyu, what's wrong with you? Is that how you talk about Dad? Huh? If you don't want to come, don't come, and you, get out." As he spoke, he also scraped Wang Yan. It was sunny, the rain stopped, and he felt he could do it again.

The little girl in his arms was a little scared and buried her face behind Wang Yan's neck.

Wang Yan sighed. He was also cheap. If he hadn't let Su Mingyu come, wouldn't that have been it? He had to rush up. He stopped Su Mingyu, who was opening her mouth to scold people, and Wang Yan handed the child to her. Then he brushed Zhu Li, who was blocking in the middle, to the side, stepped forward in two or three steps, grabbed the arm of Su Mingcheng, who was already prepared for battle, with one hand, pushed horizontally across his waist with the other, and then exerted force from his waist and abdomen, directly swinging Su Mingcheng, who weighed more than 150 jin, in a circle and smashing him to the ground. Of course, he held back his hand, otherwise, he could have killed this bastard with this move.

Zhu Li screamed in shock, Su Daqiang's squinted eyes widened, and he rolled the needle in a shudder, followed by shouting, looking for nurses, looking for doctors.

Other patients in the hall also had spirit now, one by one taking out their mobile phones to take pictures. Wang Yan didn't care about others, looked down at Su Mingcheng, who was grinning in pain: "Have I told you not to gesture at Mingyu?"

No movement, Wang Yan stepped on his ankle and exerted a little force: "Answer me."

Su Mingzhe screamed and answered stammeringly: "Said... said."

"Very good, then this is the last time, I don't want there to be a next time, understand?" As he spoke, he added some force.

"Understand, understand, it's going to break... break..."

"He provoked it first, don't blame me." Wang Yan shrugged at Zhu Li, who was glaring at him, then let go of his foot, blinked at the mother and daughter who were staring at him with wide eyes, and then walked to the side and took out his mobile phone to make a call.

One was to settle the hospital side, and the other was to settle the online platform. Although Long Teng was not a monopoly, the head internet products were basically theirs, and other platforms had to give Long Teng some face. And the videos taken by the busybodies on the side were basically sent to those head platforms with influence, just to get some eyeballs and get a little popular. Wang Yan made this call, and the videos sent from this place would be blocked, and no one would turn them over in the future, and they wouldn't spread at all.

As for Su Mingcheng, he was naturally embarrassed and blushing for spending the money that sold Su Mingyu, but didn't he spend it until Zhao Meilan died? Didn't he point fingers at Su Mingyu righteously when he saw her again? It was precisely because he spent that money that he had to be righteous. Because of the harm, he had to continue to harm. It couldn't be said that it was everyone, but it was definitely the human nature of some people.

A farce did not cause the slightest ripple. Su Mingcheng did not call the police either. Seeing such a big commotion, after three or two calls, only one doctor came out to appease the other masses, and in order to avoid the escalation of the situation and make some rotten things like privileges that people hate, he moved them to a vacant ward, so he knew that calling the police would be his own bad luck. Of course, if there hadn't been this battle, he would definitely have called the police. If he had the opportunity to retaliate and didn't use it, he would be a fool. Seeing the arrogant Su Mingyu helpless, how cool it was.

In the ward, Su Daqiang didn't groan either, silent, closing his eyes and pretending to be dead. He was scared before, his hand was swollen, and he called the nurse to re-tie it. And with this commotion, Su Mingcheng was beaten, and he would have to make trouble with him when he went back. This Mingyu, she didn't understand things at all, and the object she found wasn't good either...

On the side, Su Mingcheng rubbed his waist, just now he hit it, and his skin was broken and bleeding. And Zhu Li stood by his side, looking at Wang Yan and Su Mingyu with slight hostility. As Su Mingcheng's wife, she naturally stood by Su Mingcheng. They were in the wrong, but they couldn't do it.

Su Mingyu also learned the situation from the doctor. It was acute diarrhea caused by a duck neck. She turned and asked: "You didn't cook for him? How did he eat duck neck?"

Su Mingcheng didn't speak, Zhu Li replied: "Dad bought it himself, and both of us have to work, usually we eat takeout. By the time we get off work and cook, it's very late, isn't that worse for Dad's body?"

Su Mingyu understood and turned to look at Su Daqiang: "Dad, if there's nothing else, we're leaving. Don't say you're about to die casually in the future, you should have heard the story of the boy who cried wolf."

Wang Yan held the little girl who was sticking her tongue out and making faces at Su Mingcheng, looked at Su Daqiang who was peeking with his eyes open, and left with Su Mingyu.

On the way, Su Mingyu was driving: "I didn't see it, Wang Laoshi, you are really both civil and martial."

Before, she knew that Wang Yan practiced blindly every day, and the set of moves he taught Wang Lin, she only thought it was good for children to move more, plus that kind of work was also quite domineering, tossing her to the point of wanting to die, and her body was very good. But she didn't expect that her own man could really fight, and he could directly swing a person of 150 or 160 jin.

The little girl in the back also clapped her hands, seeing her father's might, naturally she was also extremely happy: "Daddy, Daddy, I want to learn martial arts." As she spoke, she also matched it with her little hands, and even made sound effects of "Hey Ha."

"This is called a real person not showing their face." Wang Yan adjusted the seat and looked up at the excited little one: "Big girl, as long as you practice the set of moves Daddy taught you well, the next martial arts master will be you."

"Really?"

"Of course it's true, when has Daddy ever lied to you?"

Wang Lin's little eyes rolled back and forth, either she was determined to exercise well, or she was thinking about bragging to her little friends at kindergarten tomorrow.

Fighting in front of children is of course not good, but it's different when Su Mingcheng points at his nose and scolds. Giving children confidence and strength is a good thing. The most important thing is that the scene is not bloody, and the child can accept it.

The family of three happily returned home and lived their own little life. The only flaw was that Su Mingzhe knew about Su Mingcheng being beaten and called to nag again, which made Su Mingyu so angry that she almost blocked Wu Fei's phone too. In the end, it was Wu Fei who was sensible, stopped Su Mingzhe from continuing to nag, turned to chat with Su Mingyu about family affairs, and promised never to let Su Mingzhe talk to her again, which was the end of it.

On Su Mingcheng's side, although he was beaten, he was still unconvinced, but he really had no way. Su Daqiang was his own father, and he couldn't do anything. Seeing Su Mingcheng not looking for trouble, Su Daqiang rested for a day and then continued to toss, calling his eldest son far away in the United States to complain. Su Mingcheng and his wife didn't cook, didn't have time to take care of him, the central idea was one meaning: hurry up and do things, go to the United States early.

Su Mingzhe was unemployed, had a few interviews that were not very ideal, but he couldn't bear to see Su Daqiang suffer in his unfilial brother's house. Therefore, on a sleepless night, he still secretly sent the visa documents to Su Mingcheng as in the original drama and arranged various matters.

But the flapping of Wang "Little Butterfly" Yan's wings, although it didn't have much impact on Su Mingzhe, who was thousands of miles away, after a series of events, there would still be some small impacts. For example, some words, for example, the slowed-down actions, after countless such events, the impact would inevitably be a little bigger, for example, leaving a few minutes late to handle the visa, for example, answering a phone call.

After Su Mingzhe accompanied Su Daqiang to handle the visa, he accompanied him to eat and celebrate in a restaurant, and by the way, told Su Mingzhe, who was thousands of miles away, the good news, asking him to buy a plane ticket to pick up Su Daqiang to the United States.

In the original drama, Su Mingzhe was playing with toys with his children at home, and the phone was answered by Wu Fei. This time it was different. The child was no longer playing with toys, but sitting there with Wu Fei reading picture books and learning characters. This phone was answered by Su Mingcheng.

So, Wu Fei naturally didn't know that Su Mingzhe had handled these things behind her back, so she wouldn't have a big quarrel. In the end, Su Mingzhe softened, so Su Daqiang stayed in Gusu to be supported by Su Mingcheng and his wife.

That is to say, Su Daqiang was going to the United States he had been thinking about... ===== CHAPTER 275 =====
