Chapter Twenty-Two: The Foolish, Rich Investment Tycoon



Su Yan pulled Su Xiaoyu into the car, and after sitting for a long time, her trembling heart still couldn't calm down.

This was the first time she had done something to protect Xiaoyu.

Xiaoyu's personality is different from that of ordinary children; she is assertive yet stubborn.

Su Yan never had to worry about being bullied like other mothers.

Because she's like a blade of grass that can't be blown down by the wind or beaten down by the rain; she's always the one bullying others.

While Su Yan was pleased with this, she also felt inexplicably lost.

She longed for Xiaoyu to show vulnerability just once, so that she could truly protect Xiaoyu.

However, this vulnerability could hurt Xiaoyu, which is something she doesn't want to see.

Su Xiaoyu turned her head and stared straight at her, as if she couldn't understand the complicated expression on her face.

Su Yan took a deep breath, turned to look at her, and said very seriously, "I know it's not your fault."

Su Xiaoyu was clearly taken aback, and a fleeting emotion seemed to cross her eyes. She quickly lowered her head to hide it.

Su Yan patted her head affectionately, "Let's go home."

This event was of great significance to Su Xiaoyu, and it also had an intangible impact on Yi Kangle.

As soon as school was over, he saw Lin Hui waiting behind the door. He immediately ran over with a smile and threw himself into her arms.

"Mom!" he called out sweetly.

"Have you been behaving well at school?"

Lin Hui asked casually, as was her usual practice.

Yi Kangle, with his clumsy little legs, climbed onto the car.

He sat obediently in the car seat and nodded heavily to Lin Hui.

"Xiao Bao was very obedient, and the teacher even rewarded him with a little red flower."

He proudly displayed the large, bright red flower on his chest, his little face full of anticipation, hoping Lin Hui would say something to praise him.

But Lin Hui didn't. She fiddled with her phone and casually said, "We're going to shoot an advertisement later. You have to be as obedient as you are in kindergarten, okay?"

When Yi Kangle heard that he was going to shoot an advertisement, his bright little face immediately fell.

The things he hated most, besides his mother not being able to take him to school, were shooting commercials.

Aside from attending school, he spends almost all his time shooting various commercials and taking various photos.

Why can't he have his own playtime like other children?

Lin Hui glanced at the disappointed expression on his face but didn't react at all.

Kids always love to play. The time flew by, and once they were dressed in their nice new clothes, they were smiling happily again.

When Yi Kangle saw that Lin Hui ignored him, he thought she was angry, so he raised his little face and took the initiative to talk about kindergarten.

However, all of these things were inseparable from Su Xiaoyu and her mother, Su Yan.

"Su Xiaoyu is amazing! She can protect me and keep me from being bullied by other kids. And her mom is even more amazing! She's like a female knight-errant, she beat Chang Zishi's mom, who was bullying Xiaoyu, to a pulp!"

He spoke excitedly, gesturing wildly with his little hands.

Lin Hui had no intention of listening to his rambling, but when she happened to hear the name Su Xiaoyu, she deliberately listened for a while longer. As she listened, her brows furrowed.

"Su Xiaoyu? Is she a little girl?"

She asked tentatively.

Yi Kangle nodded vigorously, like a chicken pecking at rice, and then began to talk about Su Xiaoyu's "heroic deeds".

Lin Hui had no interest in listening to any of this; she was lost in thought.

When she arrived at the film set, she handed Yi Kangle to the staff and then went out to find a place to make a phone call.

"Hey, can you help me find out which kindergarten Su Yan's daughter attends?"

Gao Shuyun returned home in a disheveled state and saw her husband sitting on the sofa. She plopped down next to him, saying nothing, just crying incessantly.

Seeing Gao Shuyun's appearance, Chang Zishi felt a chill run down his spine.

He thought he could use this incident to get his mother to find Su Xiaoyu and vent his anger, but he never expected it to turn out like this.

Feeling guilty and scared, he didn't dare to stand there. He turned around and ran upstairs in a panic, hiding in his room.

Chang Zishi's father, Chang Qun, was on the phone, and his expression didn't look too good.

Disturbed by the crying around him, he moved to the side.

Gao Shuyun came back to complain about her grievances, so of course we couldn't let her off the hook and moved around with her.

After this happened several times, Changqun hung up the phone and got furious.

"What are you doing now!"

He suddenly turned around and was stunned to see Gao Shuyun's bruised and swollen face and disheveled hair.

"What happened to you? Who hit you?"

Gao Shuyun was stunned by his shout. When she came to her senses, she immediately turned her head away from his hand, looked at him with teary eyes, and cried out in grievance, "I've been beaten up like this! And you still yell at me!"

Changqun was also a little annoyed. "Didn't I already ask you? Who hit you?"

To Gao Shuyun, his words were clearly full of impatience.

She jumped up from the sofa. "Changqun! What kind of attitude is this?! Am I not your wife anymore?! I've been beaten up, and you're still so impatient!"

Looking at her pitiful appearance, Changqun couldn't bring himself to get angry. He realized his mistake and softened his tone.

"Alright, alright, I just acted impulsively. Tell me, who hit you?"

Gao Shuyun had already suffered mistreatment from Su Yan, and then she had to endure more mistreatment from Chang Qun when she got back. How could she possibly take it all?

No matter how kindly Changqun spoke, she never gave him a pleasant look.

Finally, Changqun's patience wore thin.

"I asked, I advised! What more do you want?!"

Gao Shuyun looked at him in disbelief, listening to his impatient tone.

"How dare you talk to me like that?"

"What's wrong with me talking to you like this! You stay at home all day doing nothing, do you know how hard it is for me out there!"

Changqun began to accuse others in a fit of rage, and once he started, he couldn't stop talking.

“The company’s cash flow has dried up and we’re in big trouble. We finally managed to get some investment, but they just backed out. I’ve been the one handling all of this. Have I said a word to you about it?”

Gao Shuyun was stunned. She calmed down a bit, but still felt a little wronged and stood up for him: "What kind of person is he! So untrustworthy! How can anyone do things like this! Honey, even if he invests again, we don't want it."

She thought that saying this would comfort Changqun, but to her surprise, Changqun became even more agitated.

"Do you even know who the investor is? Have you ever heard of President Su? She's such a shrewd and wealthy investment guru, so many people want to curry favor with her, but they can't even get a connection with her. I went through so much trouble to get this investment, how can I just give it up like that!"
