Chapter 56: You said this last time
The next morning, He Ji, who didn't want to stay any longer, had breakfast and decided to take Su Yan back to the city.
He's mother scolded him behind his back for more than ten minutes. Seeing that he was not making sense, she turned her attention to Su Yan.
Before Su Yan realized it, He Ji had already stepped aside, completely blocking He's mother's sight.
"Mom, please don't watch it. I'm the boss in our family."
Even if you talk your mouth off, he still has to leave.
He's mother looked at her son who had grown stronger and sighed heavily.
"Every time I come back, you can't stay a few days longer. Are there lice at home? I'll be itchy all over if I stay two more nights, right?"
"I don't know what I did wrong in my past life to give birth to a debt collector like you. It makes me feel uneasy at all."
She muttered a few more words, and seeing that He Ji didn't listen at all, she rolled her eyes and went into the house angrily.
He Ji took Su Yan into the car. When the car started, she came out in a hurry, carrying a bunch of things.
When she passed He Gang and He Zheng, she kicked them both and said, "What are you still standing there for? There are so many things in the room, and you expect me to take them all by myself?"
Her tone was extremely displeased, and she knew that she was being taken out on. He Gang and He Zheng looked at each other and shrugged helplessly.
Every time the boss comes back, they always get scolded a few times. Over the years, they have become accustomed to it.
He Ji was already used to this kind of scene. He didn't want to open the car door, but looking at Su Yan's bright eyes, he gritted his teeth and unlocked it.
The child looks like he is looking forward to taking something. If he doesn't take it, he will scold him. It's better to take it and make the child happy at the same time.
After putting the things away, He's mother walked to Su Yan's car window, looked at her rosy little face, and couldn't help but pinch it.
Su Yan:? ?
Meeting Su Yan's puzzled look, He's mother smiled and said, "It's okay, I just want to try the feel of it."
He Ji: ...
Is his child's face used to test the feel of the hand?
"Mom, you're too old to do whatever you want."
Any woman would mind being called old, let alone when the person saying it is her own son. He's mother widened her eyes, pointed at him and was about to scold him.
He Ji was not in a hurry. He glanced at Su Yan lazily and raised his eyebrows at He's mother with provocation in his eyes, as if to say, are you going to ruin your image as a good mother-in-law in front of your daughter-in-law?
Being stared at by a pair of clear eyes, He's mother was naturally embarrassed to scold. Her face turned red and her teeth were almost broken.
Finally, she turned her head away, took a deep breath, suppressed her anger, turned back, smiled, took out two red envelopes from her pocket and handed them to Su Yan.
"According to the rules here, we have to give a red envelope to a daughter-in-law when she comes to visit for the first time. The more we give, the more we value her. The second and third sons also gave the same amount when they came for the first time."
The red envelope she handed over was particularly bulgy. Su Yan suspected that if it was full, He's mother would have continued to stuff more money in.
Su Yan didn't rush to take it, but turned to look at He Ji. Seeing him nod, she thanked him and reached out to take it.
When meeting her newly-minted daughter-in-law, He's mother wanted her to call her "Mom", but the words came to her lips but she didn't say them.
She could see that her eldest daughter-in-law was a particularly shy girl. She would feel embarrassed to change her words to a stranger she had just met for a day, even if they had become family.
She looked at her son, whose face was full of impatience, and became disgusted too. Seeing He Gang and He Zheng put all the things in the car, she took a few steps back.
"Go ahead, go ahead. Bring your wife back when you have time. You should stay a few more days during the New Year."
He Ji nodded, but He's mother knew that he didn't listen to what she said at all.
She sighed silently, stood at the gate of the yard, and watched the car slowly disappear from her sight.
Su Yan didn't withdraw her gaze from the rearview mirror until she could no longer see anyone. She glanced at He Ji's face.
"What do you want to ask?"
Su Yan was silent for a moment, wondering if she had been that curious.
She didn't ask anything, but looked down at the two red envelopes on her thighs, pursed her lips, and reached out to pick them up.
The two red envelopes were the largest ones on the market. After Su Yan opened them, she frowned as she held two heavy stacks of money.
This was the first time in her life that she had received so much cash, and she didn't know exactly how much it was.
"How can I spend this money?"
She sighed softly, and He Ji looked at her with a smile on his lips.
"If you have nowhere to spend it, you can use it to support me."
Su Yan: ...
Having seen how he bought a house without hesitation, Su Yan tightened the money in her hand and said, "You probably don't think this money is worth it, right?"
This amount of money is quite a lot for her, but it should be nothing to him.
He Ji laughed and shook his head, "You're wrong. I really value this money."
After a pause, he added: "After all, this is the money earned from selling one's body, which is different from other things."
Su Yan said "oh" and stopped talking. Instead, she lowered her head and began to count the money carefully.
There was a total of 40,000 yuan, and she counted it over and over again, which took her almost an hour.
Seeing how serious she was, He Ji shook his head and laughed. He didn't know that children were so obsessed with money.
Just as she was about to make a joke, Su Yan turned her head and looked at her with a seriousness she had never seen before. "Forty thousand yuan, can you keep her? How long will you keep her for?"
"squeak--"
The car stopped suddenly, and all the money on Su Yan's thighs fell onto the car board. She fell forward, but was pulled back by the seat belt and fell heavily onto the seat.
Her head wasn't hit, but it was swinging back and forth, making Su Yan dizzy.
Just as she sat down and was about to turn around to ask something, a dark shadow covered her and took away her breath.
He Ji kissed her more fiercely than ever before, just like a wild beast gnawing on its prey.
The taste of rust gradually spread in her mouth, and for a moment, Su Yan couldn't tell whose it was.
The oxygen in her chest was slowly being consumed, and breathing through her nose alone obviously could not meet her current needs.
Su Yan stretched out her hand to push away the person who was pressing on her, but she was pressed even harder. She felt like she was about to be squeezed into the seat.
He Ji let her go when she was about to faint, but he didn't move away from her very far. Instead, his nose was touching hers.
He Ji stared at her watery eyes, licked her lips, and let out a low, hoarse laugh from his chest.
"Kid, how can you be so seductive?"
"Support me, support me, no money needed, just this..."
As He Ji spoke, his rough fingers rubbed her lips, stroked her slender white neck, and then stopped at her chest.
"Use this and I'll dig my heart out for you."
Su Yan felt familiar with the words and stared at He Ji for a long time. Just when He Ji lost his patience and was about to kiss her, she said softly, "You said this last time."
