Chapter 209: Revision (Update 2)

~7 min read 1,340 words

Su Yu also doesn't know.

"Uncle, why did you call me here?"

【Before, I stayed at home sulking at Dad, and Uncle had no objections; he wouldn't be settling scores now, would he?】

Su Xi wasn't that bored. He recalled that Su Yu had mentioned the sandstorm was approaching, so he brought her back to the company to find a chance to probe the sandstorm's timing.

"The neighborhood you want—see if there's anything you're still dissatisfied with? Before it's built, some parts can still be changed; after it's built, they can't be."

Su Xi showed the design plans and construction drawings to Su Yu, asking her to confirm them.

???

【The design plans are easy to talk about, but what gave Uncle the impression that I could understand the construction drawings?】

Wulongcha could understand; it ran a calculation and, based on the Su Clan's survey data and this world's technological level, actually found several issues.

Next, Wulongcha, according to its own calculations, had Su Yu draw its revision plan onto the large design blueprint.

Wulongcha computed for a while and came up with a good idea.

Su Yu went down the steps and said, "That's about right!"

【What does that mean?】

【Wulongcha was silent for almost a minute, then said, "Sorry, Host, I forgot you are only three years old!"】

Su Yu felt like she had taken a critical hit!

【What should we do?】

"It's okay!"

This is actually their asset. She and Wulongcha are counting on the money earned from this neighborhood to Draw card!

If you can do it, then redraw it for me!

"Uncle, I've finished it; these places need to be changed! I also wrote a text version!"

Su Yu, bored with drawing, asked Wulongcha why it was changing things that way. She occasionally asked a few follow‑up questions, giving Su Xi a lot of information.

Didn't I already give you a detailed text version?

It's clear Su Yu is working hard to approach a proper meticulous painting, but the lines she draws differ from those of a professional drafter as dramatically as a worm crawling randomly versus a line drawn with a ruler!

Su Yu was furious!

"My drawing looks bad?!"

If Su Yu hadn't spoken up, he truly wouldn't know that Su Yu wrote the text version for him to read.

【Wulongcha, at my age, if I could modify the construction drawings and get it right, that wouldn't be a prodigy, that would be a monster!】

【Host, how about this: you tell your Uncle that you need to modify some buildings, and we'll fix the problematic parts! That way, you won't be exposed!】

Near quitting time, Su Yu finally finished the revisions.

【Host, there are places that seem erroneous; please modify them!】

I've been working hard for most of the day; don't say that in front of me!

The curves are obviously curvy, the straight lines obviously straight! Yet put together, they're oddly ugly!

"Alright, how about I enroll you in a drawing class?"

Su Xi took Su Yu home. After dinner, he asked Su Yi to come up to the study.

"Brother, what's up?"

"Draw a house."

"Huh?"

Su Yi looked bewildered, but still drew a house. Seeing the father and daughter's almost identical houses, Su Xi nodded approvingly, "Su Yu's drawing looks better than yours!"

Su Yi:???

What's the deal? Brother, did you call me up just to criticize me?

Su Xi's next move showed Su Yi that this wasn't a blow at all! What he drew was a dimensional‑reduction strike!

Su Xi took out the backup design and construction drawings and revised them according to Su Yu's text version. The text version also included some simple diagrams and data. It's clear the system has already been careful with its wording!

After revising according to the text version, Su Xi then marked all the items he had heard Su Yu mention in her thoughts, letting the team run another test. When he finished, he looked up and saw Su Yi's eyes both blank, "Why are you still here?"

"Brother, you never said I could leave!"

Su Xi ignored his suddenly dazed younger brother; after all, he'd improve on his own eventually!

"Brother, when did you learn these skills? So impressive!"

Su Yi admired his brother greatly! Su Xi learns everything quickly! He doesn't understand it, but that doesn't stop him from praising his brother!

"Brother, you look no different from a professional architect!"

"I learned it over the past few years."

Su Yi suddenly ran out of compliments.

He regretted it!

He should have had Qin Yuanjun repay the real dividends. He wasn't idle at home today; he asked Grandma and learned what had happened during his years of sleep. When the Su Family was in turmoil, Qin Yuanjun never helped at all.

He treated Qin Yuanjun as a brother, while Qin Yuanjun treated him as an ATM!

Those who helped the family, Grandma and the eldest brother, kept records and would send them gifts during festivals, thanking them for their past assistance.

But that money isn't really meant to be unrecoverable!

He can turn around with the evidence and sue Qin Yuanjun for embezzlement! Qin Yuanjun never told him that the amount of dividends he demanded back was wrong!

Su Xi saw his brother's heavy expression and felt helpless. He still preferred his carefree, goofy‑smiling brother.

"How's it going with your father‑in‑law?"

Talking about that, Su Yi felt a bit schadenfreude.

"He's been retired!"

Su Xi remembered that Ji Tianlin was only in his forties, in the prime of his life!

"What did he do wrong?"

Su Xi was already thinking about how to handle the PR for this matter. They had previously announced in a high-profile manner that Ji Yan was the Ji Family's daughter; if they now distanced themselves from that, netizens would certainly be unhappy and would also scold Ji Yan. If it really got exposed, how should Ji Yan respond?

"He didn't do anything wrong. It's just that his dad doesn't want him to do it anymore. Hey, he's got a lot in common with our old man!"

"Ji Shouguo?"

"Yes, him! When my mother-in-law was scolding my father-in-law, she said Ji Shouguo did it! When my father-in-law got the news, he was completely dumbfounded!"

"And you're laughing? Did he report the matter about Su Yu up the chain?"

Su Yi immediately caught on. "Damn it, the way all this is playing out, it's like Heaven is forcing Ji Tianlin to trade Su Yu for riches and glory!"

Su Xi slapped Su Yi. "Speak properly!"

"Oh!"

Su Yi felt wronged — he was speaking properly! He hadn't used dog-speak or cat-speak to exchange secret signals with his big brother, so why hit him?

"Tomorrow, take your wife and child to visit your mother-in-law!"

"Can I not bring the child?"

Su Yi didn't like going out with Su Yu! When the three of them were together, no matter where they were, it always split into two groups: Su Yu and Ji Yan, and him and the bodyguard.

Su Xi considered it for a moment. "That works too!"

"Long live big brother!"

Su Yi trotted happily downstairs to tell Ji Yan about this.

……

"Uncle, what is this for?"

【So many images, I can't look through them all!】

"Your designs are very good. Could you also take a look at whether Qingshan's other designs need revising?"

With a fast and excellent high-intelligence AI, Su Xi naturally wanted to make full use of it! And he wasn't too inclined to let Su Yu off the hook for taking the blame and staying up late studying.

"You're so talented — let's add architecture to your future coursework!"

【Ah! I don't want to! If I deliberately design badly now, will Uncle drop this idea?】

"Uncle, yesterday I was just doodling randomly. What if I don't get it right today? Could you not add architecture courses?"

Today's bonus update~

Yesterday's bonus update — I forgot to add a title!

Good night, darlings~
