Grandma Qin held Xiao Ruanruan's hand and invited Su Xixi, "Xixi, why don't you come to Grandma's house with Xiao Ruanruan to play?"
"Okay, okay!" Su Xixi nodded vigorously without the slightest hesitation.
After all, going to play with Xiaoruanruan meant she didn't have to go to school. Why would she refuse such a good thing?
At this moment, Su Xiaowu's mind raced, and she quickly said, "I want to go too! I'll go protect Ruanruan and Qianqian!"
Su Yan raised an eyebrow at him, "Trying to skip school?"
Su Ziyuan bluntly added, "He made it very obvious."
Su Xiaowu moved her lips, just about to speak up to defend herself, no, to explain.
Su Yifan had already said, "Lei'er will come too. Xiao Wu and Qianqian should bring their homework, and Lei'er will supervise them!"
"Oh my god!" Su Xiaowu and Su Qianqian simultaneously let out a painful howl and collapsed onto the sofa.
After sitting up, Su Xixi looked at Su Yifan with droopy eyelids and a resentful expression. "Third Brother, are you a devil?"
Su Yifan pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses. "I think you've almost finished the '53' practice books I bought for you last time. I'll bring you another set of Huanggang practice papers when I come back tonight."
"You're welcome, it's just what an older brother should do!"
Su Xiaowu then gave a vivid demonstration on the spot of a knife piercing his chest, causing him to bleed to death.
As Grandma Qin watched the loving interactions between her brothers and sisters, her smile unconsciously grew even more kind.
Thinking about her own troublesome family, she felt that Su Yiqing's concerns were valid.
Even if these children's mothers are indeed her daughters, and these children are indeed her grandchildren, her acquaintance with them might not bring them any benefit, and might even drag them into unnecessary disaster.
But she was already at this age, and she still felt uneasy if she couldn't verify some things. So she nervously asked Su Yiqing, "Mr. Su, may I see a photo of your mother?"
Su Yiqing: "I'm afraid this will disappoint you, Madam. Our family just moved here from Chongqing, and we don't plan to settle down in Beijing. So, things like our parents' photos are still in our old home in Chongqing and haven't been moved here."
"Alright!" Old Mrs. Qin said disappointedly.
The already kind and elderly man looked even more heartbreaking with his dejected expression.
Meanwhile, Su Qianqian and Su Xiaowu, excited that they didn't have to go to school, had already packed their luggage and come downstairs. Su Qianqian skipped over to Grandma Qin and asked, "Grandma Qin, when are we leaving?"
Su Lei followed them downstairs with a stern face. "What do you mean, 'let's go'? You and Xiao Ge come over here first and divide up your homework from the past two days."
Su Xiaowu & Su Xixi: ...
Although they were unwilling and full of resentment, they dared not refuse Su Lei under the death stares of their four older brothers.
They could only divide the homework and workbooks that Su Lei had brought them while cursing him, "You're just aiding and abetting evil, you'll get your comeuppance sooner or later!"
Su Xixi reminded Su Xiaowu, "Brother, he's not just an accomplice to evil, he's completely in cahoots with his brothers, the eldest, second, third, and fourth brothers, they're all scoundrels!"
Su Lei glanced at the two of them disdainfully, "If you two put the same effort into using idioms when you're cursing into studying Chinese, you wouldn't have gotten 36 points and 28 points respectively."
Su Xixi and Su Xiaowu moved in perfect unison, stuffing the already sorted homework and workbooks into their luggage.
They glared at Su Lei with a mixture of disdain and cuteness, and said in unison, "Not passing the exam is my last act of stubbornness, so what!"
Su Lei immediately looked away. Communicating with these two academically challenged students who were not ashamed but rather proud of it was really... exhausting!
——
The four Su brothers watched as their four younger siblings got into the car and left with Old Madam Qin.
Su Yan asked Su Yiqing, "Boss Su, even if we really are Old Madam Qin's daughters, you don't plan to acknowledge them? The Qin family is the number one family in the capital, a wealthy and powerful family that has stood for three hundred years."
Although you're the richest person on the Forbes list, families like the Qin's usually keep a low profile, and they must be hiding a vast amount of wealth.
Su Yiqing glanced at Su Yan with a cold look in her eyes, "Are you short of money?"
Su Yan said matter-of-factly, "I'm not short of money. Why would I, with my old arms and legs, open a studio or make movies?"
"I'm going home to retire, fishing with Qianqian every day, playing mobile games with Xiaowu. Isn't that more comfortable than me on set, wearing short sleeves in winter and heavy winter coats in summer, hanging on wires for hours a day?"
"Oh, so you don't want to act anymore?" Su Yiqing said casually. "Alright, you come back to manage the company, and I'll go back to studying medicine."
Su Yan's eye twitched, and he gave an awkward laugh. "Boss, I was just kidding. How could I not like acting?"
The wire work may have tormented me a thousand times, but I still love it like my first love.
I'm heading back to the set to be suspended by wires!
Su Ziyuan grabbed Su Yan, "I sent you home to inherit billions, not to be locked up. Why are you running away?"
Su Yan rolled her eyes at him. "Then why don't you quit racing? It's dangerous and the prize money is low anyway. Why don't you come back and inherit the family fortune?"
Su Ziyuan: ...
Turning his head, he saw Su Yiqing's deep gaze, which held a hint of eager anticipation. He felt as if he had shot himself in the foot.
He quickly slipped away, saying, "Boss Su, I still have training, so I'll be going now."
With Su Ziyuan and Su Yan gone, only Su Yifan remained.
Su Yifan pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses with a serious expression. "Boss Su, don't look at me like that. I handed it over to the country!"
"I want to come back and inherit your vast fortune, I agree, but the country doesn't!"
He spoke in a serious tone as he slowly strolled toward his fully automatic car.
If it weren't for the fact that he boarded the car at such a speed that it looked like he was running for his life, Su Yiqing would have really believed that the country was preventing him from returning to inherit the family fortune.
Seeing that all three unreliable younger brothers had run away, Su Yiqing shook her head and smiled helplessly.
They're all my younger brothers, what can I do?
Moreover, he himself decided to give up his studies and dreams to come back and revitalize the Su family business, so this is the only path he can take.
Actually, he didn't want to refuse Madam Qin and disappoint the old lady.
But more important to him than fulfilling an old man's wish was protecting his family!
