n195 Hadn’t Given Up Yet

nIt was nighttime, and since Su Su had already discovered something shady about Su Hao and Su Ren, she couldn’t leave it be. After a long while, she discretely used her old-fashioned phone to set up a tracker on Su Hao. Then she finally got a response.

nAfter learning that Su Jun would go to Wan Shuang’s house the next afternoon, Su Hao hesitated before telling Su Ren.

nHowever, Su Hao didn’t expect this seemingly insignificant information to be crucial to Su Ren. She laughed crazily on the other side of the phone call. Su Hao became uncomfortable at the sound of Su Ren’s laugh, so he immediately hung up the phone.

n‘I only want my sister to live a happy life. Since the Su family is wealthy, it should be okay to let the Bai family have some of their money.’ Su Hao comforted himself. But little did he know that such a small action would bring about serious consequences.

nSu Su put down her old-fashioned phone and felt confused about Su Ren’s motives after hearing that Su Jun would be away the following afternoon. Su Su thought that the Bai family would use this opportunity to plot against the Su family.

nSu Su decided to install a motion detector in the surveillance cameras of Su Jun’s home office, where he kept the Su family’s confidential documents. Whenever someone moved, the motion detector would send a signal to Su Su so that she could respond accordingly.

nAfter that, Su Su heaved a sigh of relief and went to sleep with a doll in her arms. The following afternoon, Su Su returned home from kindergarten. She saw the well-dressed Su Jun waiting in the living room as expected. He waited for Su Su so they could go to Wan Shuang’s house together.

nSu Jun didn’t drive his car for this trip. Instead, he used the pink minivan. Fortunately, the minivan’s interior was spacious enough for Su Jun and his long legs.

nMeanwhile, Wan Shuang’s mind was a mess after not seeing Su Jun for a long while. She awkwardly greeted Su Jun and thought of quickly driving to her home to catch him off guard.

nBut before Wan Shuang could drive off, Su Jun noticed something unusual. He raised his eyebrows and asked, “What’s the occasion? Are you wearing makeup?”

nSu Su looked at the short-haired Wan Shuang and noticed she had on exquisite makeup. Wan Shuang even wore highly feminine earrings, looking completely different from her usual hot-tempered army veteran demeanor.

nSu Su struggled to gather her thoughts after seeing Wan Shuang’s drastic makeover. ‘No wonder Sister Wan wore a big hat when she came to pick me up from kindergarten. She was trying to protect her makeup from the sun.’

nSu Jun’s question seemed to expose Wan Shuang. Her body trembled as she subconsciously confessed, “I want to introduce you as my boyfriend when we arrive at my house”

n“Excuse me? What did you say?” Su Jun frowned. He thought he had misheard what Wan Shuang said. ‘Her answer doesn’t match my question.’

nSu Su helplessly covered her face with her hands when she heard what Wan Shuang said. ‘It looks like Sister Wan just confessed to Big Brother. It would be useless to cover it up even if I were to pull some strings.’

nWan Shuang thought that Su Jun was unhappy when he frowned. She gritted her teeth and said, “I-I don’t care anymore. The worst thing you can do is deduct my salary. My family forced me into this!”

nThen Wan Shuang stepped on the accelerator, speeding away in the minivan. Since Su Jun had already gotten into the car, Wan Shuang thought she should quickly drive him to her house so that her family could see him.

nSu Jun collected his thoughts and understood what Wan Shuang meant. He revealed a strange expression, but he neither requested Wan Shuang to stop her car nor expressed his displeasure. Su Jun only asked, “You still haven’t given up on that?”

nWan Shuang froze. She smiled awkwardly and refused to answer him. Only then did Su Su notice a strange tension between the two. She remembered Wan Shuang saying that Su Jun was mad at her.

nAfter pondering, Su Su felt that the two didn’t seem to be quarreling anymore. She then asked, “Big Brother, what did Sister Wan say to offend you last time?”

nWan Shuang’s body stiffened when she heard Su Su asking such a direct question. She dared not reply and tried her best to lay low as she drove the minivan.

nSu Jun raised his hand and patted the little girl’s head. Hearing Su Su’s question, he smiled and answered, “Wan Shuang asked if a company’s CEO should have a wife and that if I haven’t found one yet, I could use her as a one.”

nThere was a long awkward silence in the minivan. Then Su Su burst out laughing.
