Chapter 110: Where to Put the Engagement Ring

~7 min read 1,353 words

Zhu Xueheng: She just got back last night and was tricked by that old guy. The old guy really wants to use her to keep the Liang Family's pests in check, and even sent a reporter to wait nearby, releasing the news that Liang Lijiang has taken over the Liang clan at the first moment. Before the old guy could speak, Liang Lijiang pretended to faint and fell asleep. We're still at the hospital; if we head to the Su Clan now, we'll bring the reporter along.

Su Xi: The Su Clan security department has experience, you all just come!

Su Xi looked at Su Yu, whose expression was somewhat broken, and the security department must succeed even if it seems impossible. If Liang Lijiang doesn't come, he fears Su Yu will become a repeat machine.

Zhu Xueheng watched the video and was also worried about Liang Yan. Seeing Su Xi's reply, he immediately shook Liang Lijiang awake, and the two of them went to the Su Clan together.

……

"Mom, why hasn't she come to pick me up yet?"

"Huo Huo! It's Mom!"

Su Yu, holding her phone, for the first time didn't want to play with it, "You should at least watch the video!"

【Your mother is calling you, why can't you hear?】

Su Yu really wants to know why Liang Yan seemed a bit dazed after just one night.

"Mom, why hasn't she come to pick me up yet?"

Liang Lijiang and Zhu Xueheng, already downstairs, hurriedly boarded the CEO's private elevator under Qin Tao's lead.

"Huo Huo, Mom's coming to pick you up!"

Liang Lijiang rushed into the office and hugged his precious daughter.

"Mom, wa‑woo! Mom, I miss you so much! Woo‑woo!"

Liang Yan cried loudly, but Su Yu let out a sigh of relief. Liang Yan finally returned to normal. The way she looked this morning made everyone feel uneasy.

Exhausted, Su Yu was lifted by Su Xi. She felt safe in Su Xi's arms and fell asleep to the sound of crying.

Su Yu opened her eyes again, left the lounge, and only saw Su Xi and Ye Shu.

"Where's Huo Huo?"

"She went home with her mother."

"Oh! Good morning, Uncle!"

Ye Shu glanced at the time, "It's almost twelve, not early anymore."

Su Yu patted her belly, looked up at Su Xi, "I'm a little hungry!"

"Then let's go eat!"

Su Xi took Su Yu to the cafeteria, and Ye Shu hurriedly followed.

The three entered a private room and sat down.

As they walked, a much more awake Su Yu looked at Ye Shu with puzzlement, "Uncle, why are you following us?"

Ye Shu answered calmly, "I'm hungry too, so of course I'm eating with you."

【I obviously know you want to eat with us.】

"Uncle, weren't you going to see Auntie?"

【Why are you back so quickly? You didn't ruin your wife, did you?】

"Right, I came back with Aunt Xie, and after the wedding you should call her 'Auntie'!"

【Great, the red envelope is saved!】

"So fast!"

Ye Shu nodded. He had just gone there and thought he'd have to stay at least a month or more. Handling assets is a big matter, plus maintaining foreign relations, and finally throwing a banquet. Over a month is already pretty quick.

He didn't expect his father‑in‑law, who had always ignored him, to act like he'd been given a shot of adrenaline—finishing the company's affairs in a day, the moving in a day. Not to mention the banquet; once everything was ready they boarded a plane directly, without a single phone call. The speed made people think the Xie family was fleeing disaster.

"Then why don't you go eat with Auntie?"

【You don't go find your wife to come see my uncle, don't you find that odd?】

"Do you think I don't want to? I even wanted to help Auntie move, but she kicked me out. Afterwards she's going shopping with her girlfriends to bond, and a grown man following along is so inappropriate."

Ye Shu hadn't wanted to disturb Su Xi before. But his brothers, busy inheriting the family business, are a mess whether they're in Jingdu or not. All the single brothers are being forced into blind dates. The situation that trapped them made Ye Shu too scared to intervene. After thinking it over, only Su Xi's side gave him peace of mind.

Su Yu thought Ye Shu's words made some sense.

After lunch, back in the office, Su Yu wasn't sleepy and didn't want to nap, but she also didn't want to write the proposal.

"Uncle, how about we go shopping and buy something for Auntie?"

"Do you have time?"

Su Yu nodded, "Of course!"

"Then come over and discuss the proposal for the engagement!"

"???"

【Are you serious? I'm only three years old! You want to discuss an engagement plan with a three‑year‑old kid?】

"Uncle, be honest, don't you not want to get married?"

Ye Shu looked at Su Yu in shock, "Why would you think that?"

"Then why did you think of discussing an engagement plan with me?"

【Do you think this is reasonable?】

"But your dad ignores me!"

Ye Shu asked all morning and only got a "Get lost" in reply.

"…Then you'll ask your good friends?"

【Someone must have experience, right?】

"No, they now hate me to death!"

"Why?"

"My parents bragged in front of their parents that I'm about to get married, constantly calling to ask their parents to help plan the wedding. Then their parents went back and arranged a blind date for them."

【Ah…】

Don't you have any married friends? They might have experience.

Ye Shu nodded, "Yes, but they're exhausted every day; unless it's a matter of life and death, disturbing their rest, they'd go all out against me!"

【As for that?】

Ye Shu somehow understood Su Yu's expression, nodded, "As for that, seeing them lose their temper, I wouldn't dare provoke them!"

Being a struggling student trying to improve is deadly! How carefree they were when they slacked off, now how miserable! Every day endless knowledge to learn, endless worries to bear, endless pits to step into and endless scoldings to endure.

Ye Shu, who has had the luck to follow them once, said, "His brothers are all very strong!"

Under these circumstances, not a single one has gone crazy!

Then do you know, besides liking pink, what else Auntie likes?

【Just decorating the venue pink seems too thoughtless!】

Ye Shu remained silent.

Su Yu widened her eyes, "You don't know?"

Should I know?

Ye Shu thought, the time they've spent together added up is still less than a week?

But she's your fiancée!

It hasn't even been a week yet!

Ye Shu and Su Yu stared at each other, both sighing.

Sigh.

Why don't you ask your parents to see if they can find out something?

【Your parents can gather information from Xie Xin Yi's parents.】

Ye Shu thinks about proposing, estimating his parents would be the happiest.

That won't do; if I go back I'll get a beating.

But you're not going to see Auntie? Grandparents probably wouldn't beat you too hard.

My parents' motto is, "One thing for one thing! If it deserves a beating, it gets a beating!"

Unless he gets married tomorrow, this beating is unavoidable.

Whether beaten early or late, it's still a beating.

It's not you getting beaten, you stand there talking without a sore back!

Su Yu unhappy, "If you don't ask and still know nothing, what are we even discussing?"

Discuss where to put the engagement ring?

Where do you plan to put it?

Before I thought of putting it in flowers.

No creativity!

Then I thought of putting it in food!

In the middle of proposing, you take the ring to wash?

【No matter how moving, it'll lose its breath!】

When on the plane, I thought of stuffing it into clothing or a bag?

What if she doesn't notice?

Ye Shu also doesn't know what to do.

Then you think of a way?
