Chapter 183 The Seven-Day Pact



They immediately flattered Su Qiqiang and attempted to morally blackmail Mingyao.

Jiang E's art of speaking is not to be underestimated; no wonder she has been able to stay by Su Qiqiang's side for so many years.

"Yaoyao, your father gave you life and raised you. Don't forget your father after you get married."

"Without your father, how could you possibly have a few good days?"

"And what will your father and I do if something happens to the company?"

Jiang E kept spouting off, and every word she said made Ming Yao want to laugh.

They said she shouldn't be so selfish, and even made Mingyao sacrifice everything for the family.

Even if it's out of filial piety, Mingyao doesn't want to be filial to vampires like Su Qiqiang and Jiang E.

"Auntie, I don't understand company matters, so I can't interfere."

Jiang E became anxious: "Can't I learn if I don't understand?"

"You're a college student, don't you even have basic learning abilities?"

"How can you face the years of upbringing you have given us, your father and I?"

Mingyao kept her head down, pretending to be very hurt.

Su Qiqiang took the opportunity to say a few good words for Mingyao, but Jiang E said with dissatisfaction, "Children should not be spoiled too much."

"You spoil her too much, that's why she's such an ungrateful wretch."

One plays the good cop and the other the bad cop; the pairing is natural.

Mingyao watched the two of them act quietly, not wanting to get involved.

No matter how much they argued, she let it go in one ear and out the other.

To Mingyao's surprise, Pei Siyu spoke up for her at this moment.

“Mr. Su, Mrs. Jiang, as far as I know.”

"My wife was very pampered at home before she married me."

He sat back down and, in front of Su Qiqiang and Jiang E, took Mingyao's hand: "Is this how you spoil her at home?"

"That's really rare."

These four words made Su Qiqiang and Jiang E's faces turn a shade paler.

The atmosphere in the restaurant became tense again, and Su Qiqiang and Jiang E began to breathe cautiously.

Making Pei Siyu unhappy would benefit none of them.

"Madame Chiang Kai-shek spouts 'benevolence and morality' at my wife, but why doesn't she apply that same benevolence and morality to herself?"

Pei Siyu glanced at her sideways, his smile mocking.

A fine layer of cold sweat appeared on Jiang E's forehead.

She wished she could disappear into a crack in the ground right now.

What she feared most was that Pei Siyu would take his anger out on her, which would then implicate her family.

"I... I was just giving the child a few words of advice." Jiang E's voice was weak and barely audible; where was the arrogant demeanor she had displayed when she mocked Ming Yao just moments before?

Pei Siyu scoffed, "The Su family's educational methods are truly unique."

Seeing the situation getting out of control, Su Qiqiang stood up abruptly: "Madam, today is Xiaoxue's birthday. It's rare for her to come back. Why say so many unpleasant things?"

“Xiaoxue is all grown up now, and she knows what she should and shouldn’t do without us having to tell her.”

Su Qiqiang gripped Jiang E's shoulder, increasing the pressure on his hand: "Let's eat quickly and talk less."

Jiang E's face turned ashen, and she dared not breathe.

The dinner ended in an unpleasant atmosphere. Mingyao didn't want to stay at the Su family's old house any longer and wanted to leave immediately.

"Sister, don't go!"

Su Yao ran over and hugged Ming Yao's arm.

He looked up, his dark, doe-like eyes fixed intently on Mingyao, his gaze full of pleading.

Mingyao ruffled his hair: "Yaoyao, your sister is going back to her own home."

"Can you let go first?"

Su Yao refused to let go, insisting on leaving with Ming Yao.

Jiang E panicked and quickly walked over, pulling Su Yao to her side.

"Yaoyao, don't be silly."

“Your sister still needs to go home with Brother Pei. They have their own things to do and can’t stay with you all the time.”

Su Yao's eyes turned red, and tears kept welling up in his eyes.

"I'm not being silly."

He grabbed Mingyao's hand again, crying sadly, "I don't want my sister to leave."

Jiang E hurriedly pulled Su Yao away, and Su Yao started crying loudly.

The scene was in complete chaos, and even the nanny's attempts to comfort Su Yao were to no avail.

Jiang E looked troubled and said apologetically, "Yaoyao has autism, and many of his thoughts are beyond our understanding as adults."

"You may leave now, I'm so sorry."

Mingyao looked at Su Yao and felt a pang of pity.

Su Yao was different from other children from a very young age.

Jiang E found it troublesome and left Su Yao at her parents' home to be taken care of by her family.

Within a few years, the Jiang family also stopped taking care of Su Yao and sent him back to Jiang E's side.

Little Su Yao became universally disliked. He had autism, but he wasn't stupid.

He noticed the dislike the Jiang family and Jiang E had for him, which made his autism worse.

Su Qiqiang didn't want to take care of Su Yao, so he sent him to live with the elders of the Su family.

The elders of the Su family felt sorry for Su Yao, so they found him the best doctor and took meticulous care of him.

Thanks to the care of the Su family elders, Su Yao's autism was alleviated to some extent.

Instead of being grateful, Jiang E and Su Qiqiang brought Su Yao to their old house after their marriage, citing the reason of a happy family life.

This is also the fundamental reason why Su Yao and Jiang E are different.

In her previous life, Mingyao and Su Yao had barely met, and she couldn't say she disliked him.

After all, he was just a child; he couldn't choose his own birth.

Mingyao unexpectedly came into contact with Su Yao in this life, and developed a sense of sympathy for him because they shared the same fate.

Jiang E has no idea how to raise a child, let alone take care of someone with autism.

Su Xueya has already been ruined by her, and Su Yao cannot be ruined by her as well.

Mingyao squatted down, looked at Su Yao, and asked, "Yaoyao, can I wipe your tears for you?"

Su Yao clutched the building blocks, nodding with tears in his eyes.

Mingyao took out a tissue and gently wiped away the tears on Su Yao's face.

"Yaoyao is such a good boy."

"Promise me, after you and your older brother leave, you can't cry anymore."

"You stay home and wait for your sister to come see you next time."

Su Yao frowned, looking at Ming Yao with reluctance: "Sister, will you really come back to see me?"

"meeting."

A gentleman's word is as good as his bond.

Mingyao took off the red string from her wrist and put it on Su Yao's wrist: "This is a talisman that your sister left for you."

"When you see this, it's like your older sister is with you."

Su Yao bit his lip and nodded vigorously: "Sister, you can't forget me."

"good."

Mingyao pinched Su Yao's cheek: "Tell your sister what gift you want, and I'll bring you your favorite gift next time I come."

"I want gouache, lots and lots of gouache."

"Okay, I'll bring you a gift in seven days."

A light shone in Su Yao's dark eyes: "Will my sister arrive in seven days?"

"right."

Su Yao was all smiles and stopped bothering Ming Yao.

Mingyao hugged Su Yao and told him to eat well and grow up well.

Pei Siyu watched Mingyao coax Su Yao, and a hint of tenderness appeared in his usually cold and stern eyes.

On the way back, Pei Siyu suddenly asked, "Su Xueya, you really like children, don't you?"
