Chapter 7 Chapter 7 Dogs all have this need.
"That's not what I meant." Su Ting relaxed and said seriously: "Etiquette will help you adapt to the rules better. This is the most important lesson in life."
Ye Xiuming was immediately annoyed and said, "You really think you're the father."
Su Ting knew that he was deliberately provoking him, and with a subtle hint of annoyance on his face, he simply said, "I am your father in the legal sense, not just your dad."
Ye Xiuming: "Then what else do you want to do? Find another tutor to disgust me?"
"If you follow me closely for a month, I will teach you personally," said Su Ting.
Ye Xiuming had no choice but to agree.
After only two days of studying with Su Ting, Ye Xiuming realized how difficult it was for Su Ting to help him up after he fell at home. Because when he accidentally tripped in the same place, Su Ting just looked at him with a melancholy and distant expression.
Where has the wonderful human touch gone in this family?
In addition to strict teaching methods, Su Ting also set clear boundaries and extremely high requirements for Ye Xiuming.
"Don't come to the study after 8pm, and don't come to my bedroom after 12pm."
"Your clothes and mine must be washed separately."
In addition, you must speak softly and say thank you often at home, be polite and humble outside and bow more often. In short, you have to live a more frustrating life.
Ye Xiuming had a lot of grievances to express, not to mention that Su Ting had almost no emotional communication with him.
Children of his age need their parents' love and care, but his biological parents don't want him and his adopted parents don't care about him. If he had really jumped into the puddle at that time, it would have been a complete end for him.
Maybe he needs to find more peers?
"Dad Su, I want to go to the children's playground." Ye Xiuming's clear eyes flickered, and anyone who saw him would find him beautiful and adorable.
Obviously, Su Ting didn't expect that Ye Xiuming would still seek fun with little kids even though he was about to go to middle school. Shocked was not enough to describe his mood at the moment. He was wiping the Roman gold coin pendant that he had collected for a long time. Hearing the sound, he treated the coin with disdain, and his mouth slightly opened.
"Give me a moment to think about whether or not to let Zhou Xubai arrange for you to go to preschool," Su Ting said. "Why do you want to go to the children's playground?"
"I don't have any friends and I want to make some."
"Do you still have this need?" Su Ting asked.
"All dogs have this need," Ye Xiuming said honestly, "Don't you have it too?"
Su Ting's social relationships can be described as extremely simple. Zhou Xubai saved him a lot of time in mediating with others. Apart from work-related matters, there were also those pursuers who would not turn back even if they hit a wall.
Actively seeking emotional comfort is a bit out of reach for Su Ting. He would rather spend time building his muscles and making his lines smoother than waste time on hypocrisy.
He often imagined that he would be alone in his final moments, and if anyone came to pay their respects, it would be from those who hated him. Only hatred could convince him of his own strength, even into old age, even until death.
"Not only do I not have these needs, I also want to prevent you from having them," Su Ting said ruthlessly. "If you want more emotional feedback, I'll just try to do it."
"But there's a generation gap between you and me. You're sixteen years older than me."
Su Ting narrowed his right eye slightly and said, "It's your fault that you are too young."
"You're too old." Ye Xiuming retorted, and then he realized -
He could have delayed his enrollment, but Su Ting threw him in with just one phone call. Ye Xiuming was personally taken to school by Su Ting, and everything was acceptable until Su Ting pulled out a charcoal-black suitcase from the trunk. Ye Xiuming was puzzled: "Why did you give me a suitcase?"
“Because this is a boarding school.”
"Su Ting! You want me to live in school since elementary school?!"
"It's your fault that you're too young and only in elementary school." Su Ting adjusted the lapels of his dark navy blue suit and smiled a winner.
“I’m going to middle school next year!”
"Well, then you'll be a middle school student living on campus." Su Ting joked, his heart filled with the joy of completely getting rid of Ye Xiuming. He pointed to the suitcase and said, "These are all new clothes." He tossed his phone to Ye Xiuming and said, "Call me if you need anything. Now I'm leaving."
"But what's your phone number?" Seeing Su Ting about to disappear from his sight, Ye Xiuming's mind was filled with sadness, making it difficult for him to think.
"Shortcut Key 1 is me." Su Ting waved his hand back, "Good luck!"
"Good luck to you!"
Ye Xiuming was so angry that he immediately reached out to grab a taxi and said, "Follow the car in front."
"Little boy, you want to play car chase, right? Do you have enough money?"
Su Ting was emotionally cold and distant, but he gave just enough money. Ye Xiuming casually took out a few hundred-dollar bills from his pocket. The driver was satisfied and stepped on the accelerator to drive away.
Su Ting's attention was elsewhere, so he naturally didn't notice that his car was being followed closely. He called Zhou Xubai and asked, "Where is he now?"
"In the western suburbs industrial park, in that blue factory building," Zhou Xubai said. "Is Ye Xiuming going to school today? How's he doing? Is he not crying?"
Children, children... all children. Su Ting's inner complaints made him lose focus, and he almost slammed on the brakes and crashed into the car in front. "I think he's taking it well. Don't ask him anymore. It's boring."
Zhou Xubai: "What are you going to do to him?"
"What for? Now he lives in the school every day, so I don't have to worry about him if I don't see him."
"I'm talking about the one in the factory." Zhou Xubai laughed. "You've lost your mind, haven't you? It seems you don't have any feelings for this son at all."
“…”
"Of course... I'm not talking about that kind of feelings."
The more I describe it, the more confusing it becomes.
Su Ting frowned and asked, "Are you in the western suburbs?"
"Yes, Shi Fangyi is begging for mercy right at my feet."
Su Ting turned around and drove west. Seeing this, the driver of the car behind also took advantage of the chaos to turn around and followed Su Ting without moving an inch. The driver drove left and right, almost making Ye Xiuming vomit his breakfast.
"Master, slow down!"
"The person you're chasing is driving faster and faster. He's almost exceeding the speed limit..." The driver was still apprehensive. "This will cost extra."
Ye Xiuming patted the driver's shoulder and said, "I have plenty of money."
Soon, the car chase game stopped in the suburbs around eleven o'clock. After Ye Xiuming paid the driver the fare, he secretly got out of the car and moved towards where Su Ting was parked.
Su Ting hadn't finished talking to Zhou Xubai yet, so he asked as they walked, "How is he doing?"
"This Shi Fangyi's mouth is quite tight, it's impossible to pry it open."
