Chapter 224: Working with Shi Xu

~7 min read 1,389 words

Su Xi furrowed his brow and set down the pen in his hand. "This is the plan Su Yu gave you?"

She spent the whole day and only came up with this? Su Xi didn't quite believe it! Her system could randomly search the internet and find something better than this!

"Not exactly. She told me to start with Xu Jun's family."

Ye Shu told the truth. He actually hadn't had the heart to complain in front of Su Yu—this method was too mild, nothing like Su Xi's decisive ruthlessness!

Su Xi took a sip of coffee. "So what are you trying to say? Say it all at once."

"I want to make it bigger. Xu Jun alone doesn't amount to much."

The experience of being harassed by a man before left Ye Shu suffocated. Taking a beating passively was too miserable. He wanted to strike first. If he wasn't ruthless, the ones hurt would be him and his family. He didn't want his family to live in fear like they had a while ago.

"As long as you blow up Xu Jun's matter, the families who were used by Lu Zhongda won't let him off either. Xu Jun might not have kept records of her chats with Lu Zhongda when they were together, but others might not be the same. Some families that have hit a dead end will exploit the opportunity. What you need to do is make this topic spread through every street and alley, so all netizens empathize."

Once Lu Zhongda became a nationally known scumbag, how many young ladies of prominent families would still let their guard down and fall into his sweet trap? Even if those girls were lovesick fools, their families certainly weren't!

Ye Shu hadn't made up his mind yet. "I need to discuss it with my parents and my parents-in-law."

"Maybe you should find Shi Xu instead and borrow the official tailwind! Time it well!"

……

"Little Yu! I missed you so much!"

Liang Yan threw herself into Su Yu's arms the moment she walked through the door.

"Huo Huo! I missed you too!"

Su Yu happily hugged her back.

"Ruanruan! Me too!"

Tang Can, not to be outdone, forcibly squeezed out a spot and hugged Su Yu together with her.

"Can Can! I missed you too!"

The three children hugged together in a cluster.

Off to the side, Su Yi, receiving guests, happily linked arms with Ji Yan and exchanged pleasantries with the guests attending his recovery banquet.

This was wonderful!

It would be best if the three of them hugged a little longer, so Su Yu wouldn't squeeze in between him and his wife again, being a big bright third wheel!

"Huo Huo, Can Can, how come you two came together?"

Liang Yan and Tang Can said in unison, "We agreed to!"

Actually, not entirely—both children had wanted to arrive earliest. The adults of both families really didn't want them fighting, so they simply agreed to get in the car together and come over together.

"Do you want to go play in the lounge, or eat in the banquet hall?"

For this banquet, Su Xi had directly booked an entire well-known resort. The building materials here were all specially made—whether a sandstorm or an earthquake, neither would affect the guests attending a cocktail party inside the buildings.

"Your lounge is also where you'll be staying tonight. If you're tired, you can go up and sleep now!

Don't miss lunch! Uncle specially ordered a super delicious state banquet meal—even better than the desserts out now!"

"Really?"

Tang Can and Liang Yan were so excited!

"Mm-hm!"

"Ruanruan, let's go up and sleep then!"

Yesterday, when Tang Can heard she didn't need to go to class and could spend the whole day playing with Ruanruan today, at first she was so excited she couldn't sleep, and later she forced herself to stay awake.

Liang Yan was woken up by a phone call from Tang Can, who wouldn't sleep in the middle of the night—woken up so thoroughly she couldn't fall back asleep!

She really regretted giving Tang Can her phone number! In the middle of the night, she especially wanted to hit Tang Can, but unfortunately their families didn't live close by. The sensible Liang Yan couldn't wake her sleeping parents to take her over for revenge, so she could only seethe and bicker with Tang Can over the phone.

It wasn't until Tang Can fell asleep that she breathed a sigh of relief.

Liang Yan took her phone to their home's soundproof theater and played her dad's favorite rock music for Tang Can, directly waking up Tang Can who hadn't yet fallen into deep sleep!

Tang Can was furious! She had already fallen asleep!

Liang Yan was furious too! She'd kept her awake, and she had the nerve to sleep!

The two of them bickered all night like this.

Su Yu looked at the dark circles under their eyes. "You both didn't sleep well last night?"

Liang Yan and Tang Can both nodded. "We argued all night!"

"If you want to argue today, wait until after you've eaten, okay?"

【Arguing before a meal ruins the appetite, arguing during a meal is unhygienic, and arguing after a meal means I can use sleep as an excuse to brush them off! I'm such a little genius!】

Liang Yan nodded. "We already discussed it this morning—we're even!"

Tang Can also nodded in agreement.

Su Yi and Ji Yan, who had overheard their conversation: ……

The parents of both families, who had been standing to the side waiting for the two children, exchanged glances with helpless expressions.

"Then let the waiters take you up. Come back down when it's time to eat!"

"Ruanruan, you're not coming with us?"

"I'm not sleepy! Our family is hosting today, so I still have to receive guests!"

She said receiving, but she was really just a mascot. The main thing was that she wanted to get to know people. Su Yi's social circle was enormous—it might just develop into her social circle in the future!

Liang Yan and Tang Can were indeed sleepy. Led by the adults, they went to the lounge here to sleep.

Zhu Xueheng was curious. "How come I don't see Ye Shu?"

The sign hanging in front of the lounge had the names of Zhu Xueheng and Liang Lijiang's family written on it. The sign on the Ye family's lounge next door only had the names of Ye Shu's parents.

Ren Du sprawled on the sofa. "Do you have intermittent amnesia?"

"I don't!"

"Ye Shu's wife is pregnant—how dangerous would it be for her to go out? It's only normal for him to stay home."

"I thought they would come over to relax."

"The scenery here is indeed beautiful, with acres upon acres of plum blossoms outside. I don't know how many of these plum blossoms will remain after this sandstorm."

"Ren Tiandu ignored Zhu Xueheng, closed their eyes and slept."

"Zhu Xueheng glanced at the two people discussing with the study door shut, and the two who had entered the room and were snoring loudly on the bed, then looked at Ren Tiandu who had already started snoring, and simply set the alarm and went to sleep."

"When the alarm rang, the adults from both families, in tacit agreement, washed up the children and brought them downstairs."

"Lunchtime was not in the banquet hall seen when they first entered, but in a super-large ancient-style flower hall that looked antiquated and extremely beautiful. Ren Tiandu and Zhu Xueheng, in tacit agreement, brought their wives and children to squeeze into the Su Family's table."

"When they squeezed in, the Su Family had already saved them a seat."

"Liang Yan and Tang Can were not in a hurry to sit; instead, they moved forward to watch the two surveillance videos together with Su Yu."

"Su Yu let out an amazed exclamation!"

"Wow, this thing is amazing! Not only is it very clear to see, but it also allows one-on-one video calls without affecting eating—what a great design!"

【Serves the boss right for getting rich. Clearly it's a private space, yet it also accommodates people who want to chat!】

"Can this be turned off?"

"Tang Can doesn't like being watched by others while eating."

"Good night, babies~"
