Chapter 768: An alternative confession
Su Xiao suddenly realized and quickly shook her head, saying, "What does it have to do with you? She's my mother, your mother-in-law. You can't do anything to her. Besides, she truly values you and loves you."
"She values me because I'm her son-in-law. Girl, she actually cares about you in her heart, but she's just too impatient." Yun Che tried his best to comfort Su Xiao.
"Well, she's afraid that I'll bring shame to you, afraid that I won't be worthy of you in the future and won't be able to be your good wife. In fact, I'm afraid too." Su Xiao said softly, with confusion in her eyes.
Yun Che pondered for a moment, then gently smoothed her slightly furrowed brows. He said, "Don't be afraid. Don't you remember me telling you that I don't need you to help me navigate and maintain those relationships? You just need to be yourself. If that doesn't work out, I won't be an official anymore."
"Uh, not an official? Don't say that. My brother said that because he had no other choice. But there's nothing wrong with you, and you're so capable. I heard that people outside have a very high opinion of you. You will definitely be even better in the future. As for me, I will also work hard. I'll go see the lady tomorrow. I think I should be able to learn something."
“Okay, Madam, many of your insights are very good and valuable. You should seize the opportunity and learn from her.” Yun Che also encouraged.
Su Xiao nodded, and then she thought of something else. Her expression became a little more relaxed, and she said, "I met Wu Junhao today, and he told me everything."
Wu Junhao?
Yun Che almost forgot about this person. After all, it was Mingli who contacted Wu Junhao, and Wu Junhao didn't have anything special to report to her recently, such as not taking Su Xiao out to play like last time.
"What did he say to you?"
"He said you'd already met before, and you asked him to help me," Su Xiao said. Seeing Yun Che's expression change, she quickly spoke up for Wu Junhao, "Don't blame him. Maybe he realized he didn't need to hide it from me anymore because he thought this incident had already happened."
"You, really like him, don't you?" Yun Che asked hesitantly, staring at her intently. "Or, I could ask this, do you admire him?"
Su Xiao was stunned for a moment, then said seriously, "Not really, I just think he's nice. He's about the same age as me, so the topics we talk about seem to be more relevant. Plus, he's very talkative and cheerful."
“Don’t we usually have similar topics? Su Xiao, even though I’m older than you, I’m only seven or eight years older.” Yun Che snorted in annoyance.
Su Xiao was stunned again, staring at his handsome face which was slightly gloomy, and said, "Are you...jealous?"
"No." Yun Che immediately denied it, then continued, "However, when I first heard that you went there because of him, I was quite jealous, but gradually I didn't take it to heart. I don't even care about Gao Chengze, let alone him. One of the reasons I approached him was to get him to help you, and I also wanted to assert my rights and let him know that you have an excellent husband, so naturally he wouldn't dare to harbor any ulterior motives."
Su Xiao couldn't help laughing secretly. She didn't expect that he would have such a side to him.
After all, he is usually so domineering and strong...
“And that time, you went to some flower farm with him, and even took pictures lying on sunflowers. I was so fucking pissed at that time, thinking you were tired of living. You wanted to go see flowers but didn’t tell me and asked me to take you there!” Yun Che thought about how he couldn’t help but send a message to her Moments that only she could see, and he felt that he was really childish.
"Would you like to go with me? You might find it boring. In fact, I didn't know where he was taking me at first. You and I were in a bad mood during that time, and my mother always taught me not to be angry with you and to put you at the center of everything. He took me there because he saw that I was in a bad mood. He didn't have any other intentions." Su Xiao said.
"I know. If I had other intentions, I would have let him live until now, and you wouldn't have been able to live a good life!"
Ugh, this tyrant!
Su Xiao glared at him with a slight frown, but she was not very angry in her heart. The fact that he cared about her also meant that he loved her. If it were her, she would also explode if she knew that he took another woman to see the flowers and the sea.
“Yun Che, although Wu Junhao is good and I admire him very much, it’s just admiration, not love, understand?” After a while, Su Xiao threw herself into Yun Che’s arms and murmured.
A delighted smile appeared on Yun Che’s face.
Although she still couldn't tell him that she loved him directly, he knew that the resentment and grievances in her heart had dissipated little by little, and her love for him had been restored in her heart. This was her alternative way of expressing her love to him.
Looking at her so charming and lovely, Yun Che's heart naturally throbbed, but in the end he forced himself to hold it back.
"I'm going to the bathroom. You go to sleep first." He stood up and walked into the bathroom with his tall body.
After all, Su Xiao has followed him for so many years, so she naturally knows some of his reactions. But remembering that she has to meet the chief's wife tomorrow, she doesn't dare to act rashly. He should have considered this as well, so he would rather take a cold shower.
That night, everyone restrained themselves so that Su Xiao could maintain a good spirit to meet the chief's wife the next day. Su Xiao lay in Yun Che's broad and warm embrace and slept soundly. She woke up the next day feeling quite energetic.
Before Yun Che left, he continued to remind her to stay calm and not worry, and just be herself.
At about ten o'clock, Su Xiao also followed her mother to the lady's residence.
We met in the garden.
The scenery is beautiful and the air is pleasant.
Su Xiao first greeted the lady politely and respectfully.
The lady was more kind than she had imagined, and in person she was even more beautiful and gentle.
She immediately took Su Xiao's arm, looked her over, and said with a smile, "You inherited all the good looks from your parents. No wonder Ah Che is so obsessed with you. Even a man like me can't let go of such a delicate and lovely girl."
Su Xiao knew that Madam was deliberately joking to ease her nervousness, so she was very grateful and said shyly, "Madam, you are the most beautiful."
"Haha, I'm old."
Su Xiao didn't think she was old. Moreover, some people, even if they were really old, still had an elegance and indifference that could not be erased by time.
The lady is like that, and so is her mother.
Su Xiao couldn't help but wonder whether she would be able to maintain this beauty when she gets older. She hoped so.
"I called you here today without any special intention. I just thought that you have been home for so long and I haven't seen you yet, so I asked you to come and sit with me. Don't be nervous, Hui'er. I have heard some things about you. You are still young and it is inevitable that you don't know the limits, but it's no big problem. As for your mother, don't bother with her. A mother's job is to do what is best for her children." The lady began to speak.
"I don't hold a grudge against her. I know she did it for my own good." Su Xiao said sincerely and looked at her mother.
"Well, I also told your mother not to rush things. You should know that Che's future will require your hard work. It may cost you a lot, and you may even encounter a lot of pain. Are you afraid?"
