Chapter 122
After the Chinese New Year, time passed even faster and in the blink of an eye it was April again.
"Nephew Xiangze, please help Su Yi. You and Si Chen have been good friends since childhood, and you have always treated Su Yi as your younger brother. You definitely can't bear to see him go on like this!"
At the Jun family's house, a woman dressed as a noble lady was looking at Jun Xiangze earnestly.
As the person being begged, Jun Xiangze was a little embarrassed.
Su Yi's situation in the Su family is similar to his during that period, or even worse, because he has already resorted to selling shares.
Su Yi is the youngest son of the Su family. He is about 24 years old this year. With his elder brother who is ten years older than him inheriting the family business, he has nothing to do and just lies down. With the thought that his brother will support him anyway, he spends his days doing nothing and hanging out with a bunch of second-generations in his circle.
Two months ago, he suddenly fell in love with a woman and began to spend money like crazy on her, spending thousands and even millions of dollars without blinking an eye, like a playboy who spends a fortune just to get a laugh.
In fact, Su Yi had spent money on women before. It was normal for people like them to spend money on someone they liked. In the words of these playboys, it was called spending money for love.
Su's parents and eldest brother didn't care much when they found out, and even gave him money because they felt sorry for him for not having money.
But this time was different. In just half a month, he spent the same amount of money he had spent on others in the past one or two years. He even thought of selling or giving away his shares in the group to this woman.
If Su Sichen had not noticed the suspicion and tried to stop him, Su Yi's own shares might have really become the property of that woman Su Qutao.
Because Su Sichen stopped him from selling shares, Su Yi almost had a fight with Su Sichen. That was why the Su family realized that something was wrong with Su Yi.
You have to know that Su Yi is a complete brother-con. He has been following his brother like a dog since he was a child. He will never go west if his brother says east. Even if his brother makes him take the blame, he will only be angry for two minutes, and after a while he will follow his brother like a dog again.
The Su family knew that Su Yi would never fight with Su Sichen just because Su Sichen stopped him.
The Su family, realizing something was wrong, took immediate action.
In a short period of time, they not only found out the reason for Su Yi's abnormal behavior during this period, but also discovered that this woman named Su Qutao not only hooked up with their Su Yi, but also hooked up with many other people outside.
The family backgrounds of these people are not simple. They are either rich or powerful.
The Su family showed Su Yi all the results of their investigation, but even though he knew that this woman was hooking up with several other men besides him, he still kept talking about going to find this woman named Su Qutao.
His crazy look even made them think that Su Yi was poisoned.
The man was immediately taken to the hospital for examination. The results showed that apart from a slight abnormality in his brain waves, there were no other abnormalities, let alone any treatment.
There was no other way, and since he didn't want his son to get into trouble outside, he could only lock Su Yi up at home for half a month.
However, they didn't expect that he would act like a madman and even engage in self-harm, just to force them to let him go out to see the woman.
His behavior was like stabbing a knife into the hearts of Su's parents and eldest brother.
In the end, we went to Sujia Hospital, temples, Taoist temples, and all the strange cities in Lianyun Province and Xiangxi, but there was still no solution.
In just one month, the Su family was exhausted. Many times, they even felt that Su Yi had completely changed, making them feel unfamiliar.
A few days ago, Su's mother found out from somewhere that Jun Xiangze had the same symptoms and had an encounter with that woman. She had no other choice but to come to Jun Xiangze and ask for help.
Jun Xiangze himself was a bit embarrassed by this. Although the Jun and Su families were not old acquaintances, they had a good relationship. If he really had any ideas, he would certainly not hesitate to tell the Su family, but it was because of Jiaojiao's existence that he inexplicably escaped the control of that woman.
It’s hard to explain this, but Jun Xiangze has also read a lot of books related to metaphysics during this period, and feels that this can be attributed to the individual’s magnetic field.
Facts have proven that some people's magnetic fields are inherently incompatible, as if they were born to be incompatible with each other, like water and fire.
Jiaojiao's magnetic field may be incompatible with that woman, so people who are familiar to him will not be easily bewitched by her.
Although this explanation is a bit forced, it is the only one that can explain it.
In fact, if Jiaojiao were an adult, he could certainly ask Jiaojiao for her opinion without any scruples, and then introduce the Su family to Jiaojiao, which would mean more connections in the future.
But the problem is that Jiaojiao is less than three years old now, and he cannot introduce Jiaojiao to others on his own initiative.
Moreover, that woman was too weird. If Jiaojiao was exposed in front of her, there was a high possibility that she would be in danger.
Jiaojiao has done a favor for their Jun family, so he cannot do this. Therefore, he is very embarrassed when facing Su's mother's plea.
Just when Jun Xiangze was in trouble, Jun Che was walking towards the villa with Jiaojiao.
Jun Che took the driver's car to the crew to pick up Jiaojiao because Uncle Li's filming time was a bit long today. Jun Che learned about this from Uncle Li, so he hurriedly took the driver's car to the crew and coaxed Jiaojiao out of the crew under the pretext of making delicious pudding for Uncle Li together.
The two of them went to the supermarket together to buy ingredients for making puddings, and then took the driver's car back. However, when they were about to arrive at Jun's house, Jun Che asked the driver to send their ingredients back first, and he wanted to take Jiaojiao to pick up leaves.
Jun Che knew that Jiaojiao liked to pick up leaves and small stones. There was a beautiful small stone given to him by Jiaojiao in the box on the bedside of his bedroom.
A few days ago, he discovered that there was an old tree outside the old house with very beautiful leaves, so he thought of taking Jiaojiao to pick them that day, and here they are today.
When he came under the old tree, Jiaojiao was really happy. He squatted on the ground and carefully selected for a long time. He picked up a leaf that he thought was the most peculiar and beautiful, put it carefully in his pocket, and stood up to leave.
"Jiaojiao, can't you pick up some more?" Jun Che was very puzzled: "There are still many beautiful leaves!"
"No." Jiaojiao shook her head and said seriously, "Just pick one leaf from each tree!"
Although Jun Che didn't understand why only one leaf was picked from each tree, he took Jiaojiao's advice as the final word.
He walked forward, took Jiaojiao's hand and walked towards the old house: "I'll take you there when I find a tree with beautiful leaves."
"Okay, thank you, Brother Jun Che."
Jun Che pursed his lips and smiled: "You're welcome."
"Jiaojiao, which kindergarten are you going to attend after school starts?"
Jiaojiao thought for a moment and said, "Dad said it's Ledi Kindergarten. Brother Yuhao and Sister Yaoyao both go there. With them around, the older kids won't bully Jiaojiao."
"It's a pity that I'll be in first grade when school starts, otherwise I could have looked after you in kindergarten." Jun Che pursed his lips in disappointment, then thought of something and said, "But when you're in school, if Uncle Li doesn't have time, I'll pick you up after school, and then we can go to the crew to do our homework together, okay?"
"Okay." Jiaojiao nodded, then asked in confusion: "But what is the homework?"
"Homework is the task assigned by the teacher. You will understand it when you go to kindergarten."
Just as Jiaojiao and Jun Che were talking, a sports car suddenly roared over from a distance and was about to hit Jun Che and Jiaojiao, but it braked in time at the critical moment.
The airflow caused by the brakes lifted the loose hair on Jiaojiao's forehead, revealing her smooth and full forehead.
Although the car didn't hit Jiaojiao, she was so scared that she took two steps back and sat down on the ground.
Jun Che, who was equally startled, stood in front of Jiaojiao, looking at the car in front of him with a stern face. For the first time in his life, he shouted at the top of his voice: "How can you drive like that?! Can't you see there are children on the road?! This is not a highway. Don't you know you have to slow down in a residential area?!"
In the car, Su Yi, who had just come out of the Su family and couldn't wait to see Su Qutao, thought he had hit someone, so he hurriedly got out of the driver's seat, passed Jun Che who was standing in front of him, and came to Jiaojiao who fell to the ground.
Seeing that the child he hit was such a small one, Su Yi frowned. He squatted down and didn't dare to move Jiaojiao. He could only say worriedly: "Are you okay? Where did you get hit? Don't move, I'll call an ambulance!"
As he said that, he took out his cell phone and was about to make a call.
Jiaojiao, who was sitting on the ground, shook his head when he heard this: "Jiaojiao was not hit. It was Jiaojiao who fell down because she didn't stand firmly. Uncle, please pull her up." As he said that, he stretched out his little hand to Su Yi.
Hearing that he was not hit, Su Yi subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, reached out and held the child's hand, wanting to pull him up.
The moment he held the child's hand, he suddenly felt a surge of fear in his heart.
The hand he held was so soft and small that it seemed to have no bones. He didn't even dare to pull hard. It was hard to imagine what it would be like if it was hit by a car.
Jiaojiao stood up from the ground, brushed off the dust on her pants, and looked up at Su Yi who was in a daze: "Thank you, uncle."
"You're welcome!" Su Yi came back to his senses and said, "I caused you to fall, so you don't need to thank me."
"Okay, then you're welcome." Jiaojiao said, and suddenly stared at Su Yi's exposed wrist: "Uncle, what's wrong with your hand?"
Hearing this, Su Yi lowered his head and saw several hideous scars on his wrist that were not covered by the watch.
He vaguely remembered that he had cut these scars in front of his brother, parents and others in order to come out and see Su Qutao, just to force them to let him out to see Su Qutao.
He raised his eyes to meet Jiaojiao's clear, bright eyes, subconsciously covering the scar on his wrist and changing the subject: "Nothing, where are you going? I'll take you there."
"Let's go to Uncle Jun's house." Jiaojiao said crisply.
Uncle Jun?
There is only one Jun family in this villa area.
Su Yi from the Jun family knew the exact location. When he was a child, he often followed his brother to the Jun family to play, which was not far from here.
Thinking of this, he simply bent down, picked up Jiaojiao and walked towards Jun's house.
This was Su Yi's first time holding a child, so his movements were inevitably a bit clumsy and awkward, but when he looked at Jiaojiao lying obediently in his arms, he was reluctant to put him down, and he slowed down his pace intentionally or unintentionally.
After sending Jiaojiao and Jun Che to the door of Jun's house, Su Yi watched them go in before leaving.
On the way back, he sat in the car for a long time, then suddenly turned the car around and drove back.
Su Sichen in the group received a call from the housekeeper and thought that something had happened to Su Yi again, but he didn't expect to hear the housekeeper say that he had gone out and came back.
Su Sichen was surprised and quickly called Su Yi: "Why are you back? Aren't you going to meet Su Qutao?"
Su Yi pursed his lips after receiving the call: "I don't know why, but I suddenly don't have such a strong desire to see her anymore."
As he said this, he looked at the scar on his wrist. God knows how afraid of pain he is. From childhood to adulthood, bumps and scrapes have always been enough to make him feel uncomfortable for a long time. I don't know how he could have brought himself to do it at that time.
Thinking about this, Su Yi said, "Brother, can you find me a doctor who is good at scar removal? I want to remove the scar on my hand. It's quite annoying."
Hearing this, Su Sichen was delighted but also confused. He didn't understand why his brother suddenly changed his mind just two minutes after going out. You know, this was something they hadn't been able to do in a month.
Su Sichen guessed that something must have happened on the way out, or someone must have caused him to suddenly change his mind. Just like when he suddenly met that woman named Su Qutao two months ago, and then he fell into a trance.
Thinking of this, he promised Su Yi to find a doctor to remove his scars, and at the same time asked someone to investigate what happened in the ten minutes that Su Yi was away from home.
The final result was that Su Yi's change was most likely due to a child named Jiaojiao who was related to the Jun family.
He found this result from Su Yi's dashcam.
The people in the villa area are either rich or noble, so it is obviously impossible for them to allow him to adjust the surveillance, so he chose to start with Su Yi's dashcam.
After getting this result, Su Sichen also understood Jun Xiangze's considerations. This child named Jiaojiao was too young and looked only about two or three years old. If he was exposed to Su Qutao, there was a high chance that he would be in danger.
After all, no one can allow someone who will get in their way to hang around in front of them.
But Jun Xiangze's consideration was a bit too one-sided. Where did Su Qutao's danger come from? It came from her strange charm that could drive rich and powerful people to work for her willingly.
But this child named Jiaojiao happened to be able to restrain her. No matter what the reason was, he could indeed make her ability ineffective.
If we don't restrain her now while she is still weak, and wait until she has enough power and wealth and controls enough people in the future, and then she discovers Jiaojiao, then Jiaojiao will be in real danger.
Now, with that woman's ability and the protection of the Jun family and their Su family, even if that woman knew of Jiaojiao's existence, she would not pose much danger to Jiaojiao.
The most correct way is to curb the ripples before they turn into waves. Simply avoiding them actually gives the opponent time to grow stronger.
Well, the real purpose of Su Sichen sending these to Jun Xiangze was to get Jun Xiangze to introduce the child to him. For this, he almost patted his chest and guaranteed that he would protect Jiaojiao's safety.
Jun Xiangze on the other side was speechless, but he felt that Su Sichen was right.
So he thought about it for a while, then forwarded the message to Li Yubai and explained the whole thing to him from beginning to end.
No matter how they think about this matter, they will eventually have to ask the opinions of other people's parents.
When sending the message, Jun Xiangze specifically emphasized that he had absolutely no intention of taking advantage of Jiaojiao. He really liked Jiaojiao. If Li Yubai had not already adopted Jiaojiao, he would have planned to adopt her himself.
Li Yubai received the message: "..."
He asked why these two people always created coincidences to meet him and Jiaojiao. He thought they liked Jiaojiao and wanted to snatch her from him. He didn't expect it to be like this. It was hard for them to go to such lengths to build a good relationship with him.
After thinking for a while, Li Yubai decided to explain the matter to Jiaojiao and then see what Jiaojiao thought.
Li Yubai never treated Jiaojiao like a child and made decisions for him without authorization. He believed that Jiaojiao had his own ideas and would give his own thoughts and opinions if you patiently explained things to him.
It's just that when something is beyond his understanding, his understanding will inevitably be different from what you said.
Hearing that her uncle had been defrauded of a lot of money, Jiaojiao wrinkled her nose and said, "Auntie is bad."
After saying that her aunt was bad, Jiaojiao said, "Uncles are stupid."
The uncles must be stupid to have been cheated out of so much money by aunt, and they still don’t believe that aunt is a bad person.
In Jiaojiao's still immature logical thinking, his understanding of what his father said was that there was a bad aunt who cheated his uncles of a lot of money and things, and his uncles did not believe that the aunt was bad. Now Jiaojiao needed to play with his uncles, and if they were happy, they would forget about this bad aunt.
Li Yubai was helpless about Jiaojiao's understanding. He pinched Jiaojiao's chubby face and asked, "Do you want to play with them?"
He agreed with Su Sichen's words. Instead of waiting for the woman to grow up, it would be better to clip her wings one by one in secret now.
Jiaojiao frowned and thought for a while before nodding: "I do, but I can only accompany him one day a week. The rest of the time, Jiaojiao has to be with Dad."
Li Yubai's eyes lit up with a smile, and he reached out and held the little finger that Jiaojiao stretched out: "Okay."
Jun Xiangze, who received a reply from Li Yubai, told Su Sichen the result.
After receiving the message, Su Sichen said OK.
Three days later, when Jiaojiao was playing at Jun's house, Su Yi was kidnapped by Su Sichen.
Jiaojiao, who had been sitting nearby playing with blocks, got up from the ground and walked over to the uncle with red eyes. She curiously circled around him and found that it was the uncle she had met before. She said in surprise, "Uncle, is that you?"
Su Yi, with bloodshot eyes, looked down at the child in front of him, and the tense emotions in his eyes eased a little.
"It's you?" He squatted down and looked at Jiaojiao, his tone sounding relieved.
"Yeah." Jiaojiao nodded and reached out to pull one of Su Yi's fingers: "Uncle will play with building blocks with Jiaojiao."
Su Yi nodded: "Okay."
When Su Yi was playing with Jiaojiao and Jun Che with building blocks, Su Sichen, who was sitting beside them, was very worried. He was afraid that Su Yi would suddenly remember to look for the woman named Su Qutao, and he was also afraid that he would do something to scare the two children.
However, his worries did not come true until the evening when Li Yubai came to pick up Jiaojiao.
Not only did Su Yi not have any intention of looking for that woman, he even had a lot of fun playing with Jiaojiao and asked Li Yubai if he could let Jiaojiao stay at his house for a few days.
This caused Li Yubai to look at Su Yi with a little caution. He glanced at Su Sichen and said, "Take care of your brother!"
Su Sichen gave an awkward yet polite smile: "Don't worry, he won't take Jiaojiao back."
He still has this confidence.
When Jiaojiao was carried away by her father, she waved her little paws to Su Yi and the others: "Goodbye, Uncle Su Yi, Brother Jun Che, Uncle Xiang Ze, and Uncle Si Chen."
Su Sichen was surprised to see him again and waved his hand: "Goodbye, Jiaojiao."
After a while, the two figures disappeared from sight.
On the way away with Su Yi, Su Sichen found that his mood had really stabilized a lot, even more stable than last time.
He was surprised that the child named Jiaojiao was really useful, and he was also glad that the child was really useful.
It seems that just as Jun Xiangze said, some people are born with incompatible magnetic fields.
When he saw the child, he also felt a liking for him. It wasn't the kind of crazy good looks that could control people's minds, but a light and pleasant liking.
From that day on, Su Qutao once again realized that someone was out of her control. Although she didn't know what caused this situation, she still did not stop using her charm to seduce others.
Judging from her actions, she wanted to catch all the high-ranking officials in the capital.
Due to her non-stop actions, Jiaojiao has met more and more uncles in the past few months. Sometimes he would secretly sigh to his father, why there are so many stupid uncles, Jiaojiao is almost overwhelmed.
Gradually, a strange phenomenon appeared in the circle: most of the young masters or heirs had a palm-sized golden statue of a cute baby in their hands. They treated it as a treasure and would not allow others to touch it.
What’s even more outrageous is that they all started showing off their babies in their circle of friends, and it was the same baby!
Jiang Xu looked at the golden statue in his hand and asked Su Yi, who was lying on the sofa: "Brother Yi, what is this? Why is it so precious?"
Su Yi, who was originally drunk and confused, looked up when he heard the words. After noticing what Jiang Xu had in his hand, he subconsciously touched his pocket. When he felt nothing, he suddenly sat up and snatched the thing from Jiang Xu's hand: "Why did you take my things?"
Seeing his intense reaction, Jiang Xu was a little speechless: "Who wants your things? I'm just curious to see."
"You don't look like Tathagata, nor like a Bodhisattva, and certainly not like some deity from a Taoist temple. Could it be a new figurine?"
"Don't you know that curiosity kills the cat?" Su Yi rolled his eyes.
"Hey, I'm a tiger, not a cat."
"It doesn't matter if you're a tiger or a cat, if you take my things without my permission again, I'll beat you into a cat."
Seeing that he was unwilling to talk, Jiang Xu shrugged his shoulders and didn't ask any more questions.
Until a month later, he spent money crazily to pave the way for a woman and was taken away by his family for a while. When he reappeared, he was holding a golden cute baby figurine exactly the same as Su Yi.
Only then did Jiang Xu understand why Su Yi didn't let him touch his golden cute baby figurine. Even if it was him, he wouldn't let anyone touch it either.
At first he was wondering why Su Yi liked to play with action figures, but he didn't expect it to be such an outrageous and mysterious thing.
Only those who have experienced this kind of thing can understand it, while those who have not can only be confused.
While thinking about this, he energetically scanned the toy section of Jing City, preparing to drive them all to Jiaojiao later.
When Jiaojiao receives these toys, he will definitely become his favorite uncle.
Thinking of this, Jiang Xu couldn't help but show off!
There was a small accident ~ the update is a little late ~
