After Tong Jia went into the kitchen to get busy, Su Ruanruan snuggled up to Su Yan and asked, "Fourth Brother, how did you know that Sister Tong Jia is a good cook?"
“She brought me lunchboxes before!” Su Yan replied frankly.
Su Ruanruan slipped off the sofa and ran into the kitchen. "Sister Tongjia, is there anything I can help you with?"
Tong Jia looked at the tiny child, who was barely as tall as her waist, with some surprise. "What can you do?"
"I can do everything!" the little dumpling answered without hesitation, looking quite proud.
"Okay, then you can peel the garlic for me!"
Tong Jia didn't look down on her, nor did he expose her. Instead, he simply assigned her the simplest job.
Su Ruanruan obediently brought over a small stool, sat down, and peeled garlic while asking, "Sister Tongjia, how long is Fourth Brother planning to take his vacation?"
“Your fourth brother said he wants to take a break and won’t be releasing any new songs for the time being, but he previously agreed to take on a variety show, the one called ‘Taking Cute Kids on an Adventure,’ which will take you with him. Filming will start in about two weeks.”
Tong Jia answered while preparing the side dishes.
Su Ruanruan nodded her little head. She had watched the first few seasons of "Taking Cute Kids on an Adventure" with her fourth brother. They were all very good, with cute and funny moments. She wondered what it would be like when they went to film it.
This is her first time recording a TV show in her two lifetimes, and she's a little excited about it.
Tong Jia's cooking skills are indeed excellent. The little dumpling ate heartily, its cheeks bulging out like a little hamster, so cute that it melted everyone's heart.
Even Tong Jia, seeing her like this, was thinking, could she hit Su Yan on the back of the head and knock him unconscious, then the little dumpling would belong to her?
However, while Su Yan and Su Ruanruan were enjoying their meal, Su Yiqing entered the ward and, not seeing the two of them, a hint of panic flashed in her deep eyes.
He immediately asked Fu Wen to check the hospital's surveillance footage.
Upon learning that Su Yan and Tong Jia had disguised themselves and sneaked out with Su Ruanruan, his face immediately darkened.
Su Xiaowu added fuel to the fire, "Su Laosi is too outrageous. His sister is so young and has just had surgery and hasn't recovered yet. How can he take his sister and run around like that?"
"Tyrant, when he gets back, you should give him a good beating and then lock him in a dark room to reflect on his actions."
Su Yiqing had no intention of paying him any attention. Since the last incident, the relationship between Su Xiaowu and Su Yiqing had improved a lot, and as a result, Su Xiaowu was becoming more and more outspoken in front of Su Yiqing.
"Fu Wen, find out where they took my sister."
Fu Wen quickly replied, "I went to the Bi'an Mansion on Huaihai Road. Miss Tong Jia's home is in that neighborhood."
"Let's go." Su Yiqing strode away from the hospital.
After Su Yan and Su Ruanruan finished eating and drinking, the two of them, one big and one small, lay sprawled on the sofa in the exact same position to digest their food.
"Fourth brother, shouldn't we go back now?"
"I've eaten too much, let's rest for a while longer."
"What if the big brother leaves work early and finds we're not at the hospital? He'll be angry!"
"With your older brother being such a workaholic, it would be a miracle if he didn't work overtime every day. How could he possibly leave work early?"
He had barely finished speaking when a knock came at the door.
Tong Jia quickly ran to open the door.
But the moment the door opened, upon seeing Su Yiqing's icy expression, she instinctively took a step back, "Mr...Mr. Su!"
Although Su Yiqing's expression was not good, she still said very politely, "Miss Tong, I'm sorry, Su Yan and my little sister have troubled you today."
"No trouble at all..."
Su Yan and Su Ruanruan, who were slumped on the sofa digesting their food, exchanged a glance and jumped up in unison.
With his head down and an apologetic look, he walked up to Su Yiqing, and the two spoke almost at the same time.
"Big brother, I was so bored at the hospital that I asked fourth brother to bring me to Sister Tongjia's place to play."
"Boss, I brought Ruan Ruan because I was craving Tong Jia's cooking."
Su Yiqing's cold gaze swept over the two of them. She reached out and scooped the little dumpling into her arms, but her expression remained unchanged. "Go back!"
Su Yan could only follow behind him toward the elevator.
Su Xiaowu secretly sidled up to Su Yan and said, "Su Laosi, I suggest you run away quickly. The tyrant is really angry this time. He called Uncle Li to prepare a ruler while we were at the hospital, and said he'd lock you in a dark room for three days and three nights without food or water!"
Su Xiaowu's eyes gleamed with cunning.
Now that Su Yan is at home, he keeps trying to take his sister away from him, which is too much of an eyesore. If he scares Su Lao Si away, the tyrant will be busy with work all day long, and then his sister will be all his.
Looking at Su Xiaowu's fox-like appearance, Su Yan could roughly guess what he was thinking. He gave him a disdainful look and said, "The ruler and the dark room are yours to keep. I wouldn't dare to take them from you!"
After saying that, he strode into the elevator.
Su Xiaowu gritted his teeth angrily from behind and shouted, "Su Laosi, as an adult and a top idol with real talent, what's the deal with you not going out to work all day and just staying at home sponging off your brother?"
Su Yan turned around and said, "The entertainment industry is tough. I'm planning to go home and inherit my family's vast fortune. Is that not allowed?"
Back at the hospital, Su Ruanruan didn't know how her older brother had dealt with her fourth brother, but her fourth brother never mentioned taking her out to play again.
Tongjia's older sister made lunchboxes every day and delivered them to the hospital for her and her fourth brother.
Ever since she ate Sister Tongjia's delicious and visually appealing bento boxes, she felt that the bird's nest porridge that Brother Guchen sent her every day didn't taste as good anymore.
