Mu Shicang took great effort to suppress the hatred in his heart and did not strangle Ji Chenru to death on the spot. He almost dug his nails into his palms, but once he thought of Yang Shushu, he found that he could suppress his hatred a little.
In the end, he gradually adapted to it, but he still couldn't help but mention what happened to his parents.
He originally thought that Ji Chenru would know what he had done in the past no matter what, but when he mentioned the car accident, he unexpectedly found that Ji Chenru had no other reaction except a hypocritical regret on his face. Had he forgotten it, or -
Ji Chenru did not notice Mu Shicang's mood changes. He was extremely satisfied with this extra son-in-law. He even imagined what kind of sensation it would cause when Yang Shushu returned to his family with such a son-in-law. As for those who used tricks in secret, they would probably have to give up.
"Shi Cang, Qiuqiu's grandfather's life is getting worse day by day. He is just trying to keep his granddaughter in suspense. But now Qiuqiu clearly has a misunderstanding about me and her mother. You have to help us persuade her."
Ji Lengqiu was Yang Shushu's original name in the Ji family, but Mu Shicang felt that Shushu's name sounded more adorable.
But he didn't say much, instead he nodded and agreed: "Of course, don't worry."
The two then talked about some unimportant things and then said goodbye. When Mu Shicang returned home, the Yang family had already prepared dinner. He had dinner, but did not stay at the Yang family that night, but returned to the Mu family.
On this day, Yang Shushu also received a long-awaited phone call. She was very happy to hear the other party's voice. When she heard that the other party was near her home, she went downstairs directly.
When she saw Yu Xinggui again, Yang Shushu felt her eyes brighten. The boy was still the same delicate and handsome boy, but after the gloom on his body was swept away, the youthful clarity made him look even more dazzling. The smile on his face had not changed, it was gentle and shy.
"Second sister-in-law, long time no see." He said with a smile when he saw Yang Shushu sitting opposite him.
This was a summer barbecue stall, and the noise of people around almost drowned out his voice. Yang Shushu sat down and saw that various barbecues were already prepared on the table, and they were all her favorites.
"Huh? How do you know I like to eat these?"
Yu Xinggui smiled: "Maybe it's a coincidence." He wouldn't say it was because he had watched the video of her and Zuo Jinheng eating barbecue in the park online countless times, and he already knew exactly what she ate.
Yang Shushu didn't ask further questions. While eating the skewers, she asked him, "By the way, have you been home recently?"
"I went back once, but it wasn't a pleasant experience, so I never went back again." Yang Shushu nodded without saying anything.
Yu Xinggui looked at her and asked, "Aren't you going to persuade me to go back and see her? Shouldn't you say that she is my mother after all?"
Yang Shushu paused while chewing the skewers. "Parents make mistakes too, and they have to admit their mistakes. She'll understand when she figures it out. If she doesn't understand, she'll have to think about it for a while. Just don't really hate her."
Yu Xinggui tilted his head and laughed: "Shushu, you are still the best."
"Haha, really? By the way, how come you have time to come and see me today? Isn't your school quite strict?"
"I came out to see grandpa, and then I heard about you. Are you... okay now?" He asked carefully, as if afraid of touching the uncomfortable part of her heart.
Yang Shushu was calm and said with a big wave of her hand: "I'm fine. Isn't it just that I'm not a biological child? Even if I'm not a biological child, it doesn't change the fact that my parents, brother, and I are a family. Family ties don't only exist in blood."
Yu Xinggui didn't say anything, but instead observed her carefully for a while. When he realized that she really didn't take it seriously, he felt relieved and smiled brightly: "Shushu, you are really good. It seems like there will never be a shadow on you."
Yang Shushu was stunned for a moment, then raised her hand and patted his shoulder: "You are doing well too, you look like a sunny and beautiful boy now. Just now, several girls walked by and secretly looked at you. Hey, tell me secretly, do you have any puppy love in school?"
Yu Xinggui blushed slightly when he heard this. At this moment, he heard a few girls at a table not far behind him shouting in a suppressed voice: "Ah, so handsome, so handsome..."
He didn't look back, but said calmly: "My priority now is still my studies."
Yang Shushu nodded and said nothing more. The two then chatted some more about the school, the Mu family, and the incident that Yang Shushu and Zuo Jinheng had encountered.
That incident had been suppressed and he had no chance to see the media. In addition, no one would specifically tell him anything, so he knew nothing at all.
"How could...this happen?" He lowered his head and said softly, "Every time you're in danger, it seems like I'm useless."
Yang Shushu didn't hear clearly, so she asked, "Ah? What did you say?"
"Oh, nothing, I'm glad you're okay." He laughed again, and the girls behind him fell into a little madness again.
After eating, she wanted to send Yu Xinggui back to school, but Yu Xinggui refused, saying that he would be worried and would have to send her back. In the end, she had no choice but to call Yang Li down, but he was still worried.
What she didn't know was that Yu Xinggui had a conversation with Yang Li on the way back to school.
Yu Xinggui asked Yang Li, "After Shushu's biological father showed up, did she look happy or angry?"
Yang Li had been around him before and thought he was a very well-behaved kid who cared deeply about his sister. So he said directly, "She doesn't look particularly happy, nor does she look particularly angry. But I think she must be feeling a bit resentful. After all, she's been missing for so many years. Given her father's ability, how long would he have been able to find her if he really wanted to?"
"What about the second brother? Did he say anything?"
"Master Xiaomu? What can Master Xiaomu say? He must stand on the side of our Shushu. Hey, you don't know the attitude of Shushu's biological father when he came to our house. My father and I almost thought he was a burglar, but later he was pissed off to death by Shushu. Haha, Shushu is a great girl. With such a rich father in front of her, she didn't even blink an eye. In the past, sometimes I thought my parents were biased, but now I think that we didn't spoil Shushu in vain."
Yang Li is usually carefree and doesn't do anything seriously, but this time he became serious: "Actually, when I was little, I didn't know that Shushu was picked up by my parents from the roadside. Because my parents were busy with work for a while, I was sent to live in my hometown for a few years. When I came back, I had a younger sister. I thought my parents had her when I was away. I was almost twenty years old when I found out by chance that Shushu was not my biological sister. But we already had feelings for each other. Our family really didn't treat her as an outsider. When her father came, my father and I were scared, afraid that she would just abandon us. But fortunately, she still chose us."
