Chapter 13: Great-Grandmother, Don't Go Out

Su Xi nodded, "I can hear it."

"Investigate as she said; once clarified, send her to prison."

"Mm!"

"Your and Xiao Yi's biological mother," Yang Zhichun paused, "respect her wishes before death, see if she wants to move her grave into the Su Family cemetery."

If that never-met daughter-in-law was forced to give birth to the two brothers, there's no need to disturb her peace.

"Mm!"

"Little Xi, Grandma will always support your decision."

Yang Zhichun knew Su Xi still had feelings for Zheng Dongping; otherwise he wouldn't have merely sent her abroad to live. But the remaining affection he had was for his biological mother.

Zheng Dongping is not!

Yang Zhichun doesn't want him to let Zheng Dongping off.

"I understand, Grandma!"

Su Xi was about to return to his room when his shin bumped into a plump dumpling.

"It's late; why aren't you resting?"

Su Yu heard that somewhat hoarse voice and looked up.

【No way, really crying?】

"Su! Yu!"

Su Xi pressed Su Yu's head down.

"Ow! I came to find the great-grandmother!"

【In the plot, the eldest uncle also loses the great-grandmother. Fortunately, the great-grandmother had planned ahead and found a trust company, so the eldest uncle smoothly took over everything from the Su Family. The great-grandmother is so generous, I don't want her to die.】

Ji Yan and Su Yu first looked at Ji Yan's room, then at Su Yu's room. Besides beautiful clothes, there was an oversized plush bear toy and a strawberry plush.

These two toys really hit Su Yu's heart!

While she happily hugged the toys and rolled on the bed, she proactively handed over the meeting red envelope—bank card—that Yang Zhichun gave. Ji Yan checked that the card had one million, then returned it to Su Yu, letting her keep it herself.

Such a warm-hearted and generous great-grandmother, Su Yu truly can't bear her death.

"I'll go with you."

Su Xi quickly took Su Yu into the study, making Su Yu feel weird.

【No, I came to chat with the great-grandmother, why is the eldest uncle looking so anxious? Strange!】

Su Yu was lifted into the room, Yang Zhichun immediately held Su Yu in his arms, stern-faced toward Su Xi.

"Won't you hold her as you come in?"

"Exactly! Being held by the eldest uncle makes her uncomfortable!"

Su Yu skillfully snuggled into Yang Zhichun's arms, smiling and acting coquettishly.

"Baby, why aren't you sleeping yet? What do you need from the great-grandmother?"

Yang Zhichun rocked Su Yu gently. When young, Su Yi was raised by Su Xi; she only occasionally held her. When she previously recuperated and could care for a child, that child wasn't hers to like, and now she even doubts it's their biological child. Now she can raise a child she likes, and she looks forward to it.

"Great-grandmother, I saw on TV dramas that acknowledging a child comes with a banquet."

Su Xi:??? Again TV dramas, how many has Su Yu watched?

"Mm, does our little Yu want to attend a banquet?"

"No! Can we not hold a banquet?"

【Holding a banquet would require inviting many people; that nasty aunt-in-law of the great-grandmother will definitely come. In the plot, the great-grandmother meets trouble at a funeral; I'll try to stop it. Anyway, nothing should happen at my acknowledgment banquet, or I'll never be at peace.】

"But not holding a banquet will make people in the circle think you're unimportant and look down on you."

The banquet isn't important; attitude is. The Su Family heir without a banquet is strange. Yang Zhichun is patient with children, softly soothing her. As for her own safety? Since we know the mastermind, we can just eliminate them.

"Then I'll follow the eldest uncle to the company, does that count as important? I'm the heir; just pretend to learn from the eldest uncle—is that enough?"

【Perfect, I can use various excuses to clear out the corrupt elements in the eldest uncle's company!】

Yang Zhichun's words of refusal reached his lips, but he couldn't bring himself to say them. This, however, is quite good.

Yang Zhichun looked at Su Xi; Su Xi nodded. Taking a shortcut is naturally better. Su Yu's performance is quite smart; perhaps he can retire earlier.

Su Yu sneezed.

"Yawn!"

She recalled today's events in her mind; she had only offended one person, 【definitely that woman who was being sarcastic to me today scolding me!】

"Ah~"

Believing she had temporarily lifted the great-grandmother's danger, Su Yu relaxed, and as soon as she relaxed she started feeling sleepy.

She covered her small mouth, "Great-grandmother, I'm going to sleep now, good night~"

"Okay, good night~"

Su Yu pattered back to her room, and with her mother's help took a bath and slept.

Study, after confirming Su Yu had left, Su Xi nervously looked at Yang Zhichun.

"Grandma, when you go out you must bring all bodyguards."

"Okay! Go rest soon; tomorrow we still have to deal with those old guys. Grandma will go with you."

Su Xi looked astonished at Grandma. Before he could refuse, Yang Zhichun said with a smile, "Everyone knows where the poisonous snakes are hiding; we must lure them out of their den. Settle it early, have a good year this year!"

Su Xi fell silent for a moment, "Okay, I'll arrange it."

After washing up, Su Yu happily entered dreamland. She felt she had forgotten something, but probably not important.

Next morning, after brushing teeth and washing face, Su Yu clocked in.

"Good morning, system!"

Su Yu cheerfully greeted the system in her heart.

The system's listless voice rang out, "Not good at all—did you forget something?"

Su Yu didn't react for a moment. What did she forget?

"First top‑up…"

The system spoke the keyword.

"Oh right, first top‑up!"

The system has been actively helping her lately, and she agreed; when she has money she'll do a first top‑up, making the system's task progress bar move a bit.

Su Yu, the million‑rich lady, felt delighted!

"Pull up the page for me—I'll see how to top up most economically!"

"Sure!"

The system instantly bounced back to full health! With one operation, the panel before Su Yu turned into the top‑up page.

Su Yu stared at that string of numbers, counting over and over uncertainly—she counted three times, then read the rules three times; after confirming the numbers were in RMB, she roared inwardly!

【Damn system, get out! Which game's first‑top‑up reward tier is one million?】

Is this definitely not on purpose? She only has one million! Each draw costs ten thousand, so how is the first‑top‑up reward also one million?

Su Yu suspected that the system, based on her assets, had deliberately raised the limit.

The system's Wulongcha appeared, fidgeting, and turned into a cup of milk tea containing Wulongcha.

【Host, the targets we're bound to are all worth tens of millions and up……】 One million is quite reasonable.

Su Yu, who only has one million: ……

"Can we collect all the cards by doing two hundred draws with one million?"

If it's possible to collect them all, doing it all at once isn't out of the question. Besides, she'll have pocket money later.

"Host, our luckiest record here is completing a set after one thousand draws."

Su Yu sucked in a breath of cold air—ten million to start!

"What about the unluckiest?"
