The housekeeper had long since left, but Su Xiangxiang was still standing there in a daze.
Why be so heartless?
Is eighteen years of living together day and night really less valuable than a blood test?
She was the little princess of the Su family for eighteen years, so why should she have to give up her position as soon as Yan Can arrives?
Su Xiangxiang roared inwardly.
That's not fair!
Fate shouldn't be playing such a cruel trick on her!
Meanwhile, Su Shaoyang quietly filmed a spectacular face-changing pantomime.
His heartfelt hatred and resentment, coupled with his textbook-perfect acting, far surpasses that of the classically trained actors and actresses on the big screen.
Just as he turned off his phone, Su Xiangxiang snapped out of her daze. "What is Third Brother doing?"
Su Shaoyang: "I shot some footage."
Su Xiangxiang frowned. "What materials?"
Could her reaction just now have been captured on camera?
Su Shaoyang raised his chin and pointed to the small building in the distance, saying, "The small building is going to be renovated. I'll take a picture to remember this moment."
Upon hearing this, Su Xiangxiang immediately asked, "Third Brother, are you also reluctant to part with Xiaolou?"
Before Su Shaoyang could speak, she started talking about playing hide-and-seek there when she was a child.
They also said she was timid and liked to play. She would often hide and then cry in fear, but she was always found right away.
"Those were good times, carefree."
Su Xiangxiang said nostalgically.
Su Shaoyang couldn't help but think of Yan Can.
According to Yan Yong's neighbors, Yan Can started cooking and washing dishes after Yan Yong passed away.
But she was so small that she couldn't even reach the stove. She had to stand on a stool to cook, and if she accidentally broke a bowl while washing dishes, she would get a good beating from Ye Lan.
Did anyone play hide-and-seek with Yan Can back then?
Probably not.
As for Yan Zhuo, he had long since ignored him.
"Third Brother?"
Su Xiangxiang raised her hand and waved it in front of Su Shaoyang's eyes.
"What are you thinking? Did you hear what I said?"
Su Shaoyang: No.
Su Xiangxiang pouted, "Impossible, you clearly heard it. If you also can't bear to part with Xiaolou, why don't we go and tell Big Brother not to renovate Xiaolou anymore, okay?"
Her words might not work, but with Third Brother's help, maybe Eldest Brother can change his mind.
Su Shaoyang retorted, "When did I say I couldn't bear to part with it?"
Su Xiangxiang was taken aback.
Su Shaoyang's face suddenly darkened.
"Is it that you can't bear to part with the memories that once existed in the small building, or do you not want the small building to be transformed because of Yan Can?"
"..."
"Let me rephrase the question. If you needed a dance studio, and your brother had the housekeeper demolish the small building to build you a dance studio, so you could invite your friends over to dance anytime, would you still be reluctant to have the small building demolished?"
"..."
Su Xiangxiang was speechless when asked the question.
What are you reluctant to part with?
Only a fool wouldn't be willing to part with it!
silence.
That's also the answer.
Su Shaoyang turned and left.
Even though I already knew what kind of person Su Xiangxiang was.
But... it's still disgusting.
Fifteen minutes later, when Su Shaoyang finished showering and came out, the butler said, "Third Young Master, Miss Xiangxiang just came to see you, saying she wants to explain something."
"Hmm, where are they now?"
Su Shaoyang casually buttoned his shirt.
Butler: "She said she cried because you wouldn't open the door, and went back to her own room, but... she lingered for a while when she passed by the young lady's room."
Su Shaoyang chuckled and asked him again, "Did your older brother tell you everything?"
The butler nodded, like a secret agent on a top-secret mission, and said in a way they could all understand, "Everything is under control!"
Since Yan Can's incident, surveillance cameras have been installed in hidden corners of the house.
Su Shaoyang couldn't help but laugh.
housekeeper:"……"
How can a qualified undercover agent laugh while discussing matters?
Su Shaoyang patted his shoulder, "Go to the kitchen and urge Wang Ma to make more lunch today. I'll take it to the hospital later. Also, don't forget the young lady's little cake."
The butler made a gesture: Everything is under control!
Su Shaoyang: "..."
puff!
The butler's comical antics cheered Su Shaoyang up considerably.
He went down to the small building intending to give some guidance on the work, but he found Su Xiangxiang inside. She was coughing and shooing the workers away, not letting them go upstairs.
"The attic holds many memories for my brothers and me, and no one is allowed to tear it down!"
"Anyone who wants to demolish this will have to step over me first!"
Su Xiangxiang spread her arms to block the stairwell. Several workers looked at each other in bewilderment, and then one of them turned and walked out.
Seeing Su Shaoyang standing at the door, he immediately told him the problem.
"Third Brother!"
Su Xiangxiang ran over again.
Her eyes were red, as if she had really been crying.
"Can we please not demolish the attic?"
"The first floor is big enough for my sister's rehabilitation. There are so many rooms on the second and third floors. Even if the attic is demolished, it won't be of any use. Please tell them not to demolish it!"
This is where she grew up, why can't her memories remain here?
Su Shaoyang said, "No."
Su Xiangxiang's expression froze.
Su Shaoyang called Su Shaozhou directly.
The call was answered quickly, "Third brother, what's wrong at the hospital?"
Su Shaoyang: "It's not the hospital, it's home. Xiangxiang said that the attic is full of her childhood memories, and she's making a fuss about not letting us tear it down."
Su Shaozhou seemed to have heard a joke.
"Fantastic memories?"
"Didn't she complain that the small building was too small and dilapidated after visiting a classmate's house, and cry and make a fuss, demanding that we tear it down and build her a castle? What good memories could there be?"
