Chapter 209
Sangsang noticed Su Huaiming's mood change, raised her head, put a finger on her chin, stared at Su Huaiming's ambiguous eyes, and blinked in confusion.
In the end, Sangsang chose to ask his own questions.
"Fifth brother, what's wrong with you? Are you in trouble? Mom and Dad told Sangsang that if you encounter difficulties, you should tell us and we can help you solve them together!"
Su Huaiming looked down at Sangsang and said nothing.
After a long time, Su Huaiming let out a long breath.
He squatted down so that his eyes were parallel to Sangsang's. After hesitating for a moment, he decided to tell Sangsang what he had just learned.
"Sangsang, it's been a long time since Fifth Brother came back. The army is urging Fifth Brother to go back to work, so Fifth Brother may not be able to accompany Sangsang in the future."
It took Sangsang a long time to recover.
Her parents had told her before that her fifth brother worked very far away, many times farther than her oldest, second and fourth brothers.
Since her fifth brother was working, it was difficult for her to see him.
She didn't want her fifth brother to leave...
But, Brother Five left to work...
She couldn't stop her fifth brother from going back to work...
Sangsang buried his head and didn't speak for a long time.
Su Huaiming knew that Sangsang was reluctant to leave, so he tried his best to comfort Sangsang: "Sangsang, Fifth Brother promises you that as long as Fifth Brother is not working, Fifth Brother will come back to see Sangsang, and Fifth Brother works to make money."
"If Fifth Brother doesn't make money, how can he support Sangsang? How can Sangsang buy beautiful skirts and hairpins?"
Sangsang pursed her lips the whole time and said nothing.
It was not until Su Huaiming didn't know what to say that Sangsang raised her misty eyes and looked at him.
There was a hint of sob in his voice.
"Then...when will Fifth Brother come back?"
Su Huaiming did not lie to Sangsang. He gently stroked Sangsang's head with his hand, and his tone of voice was unusually gentle.
"Hmm..." Su Huaiming was thinking about how to tell Sangsang: "Fifth Brother is not sure about this, but Fifth Brother can assure Sangsang that as long as Fifth Brother finishes work every day, he will definitely make a video call with Sangsang."
"If Fifth Brother is on holiday, he will rush back to see Sangsang and bring him lots of gifts."
"Fifth brother will also work hard and strive to win more medals and bring them back for Sangsang to keep."
Sangsang wiped the tears from her eyes with her hand, then stretched out her other finger and spoke in a milky voice.
“Please make a pinky promise…”
Su Huaiming couldn't help laughing as he watched Sangsang obediently wiping her tears while at the same time extending her hand to make a pinky promise.
This was the first smile on his face since he returned home. He always had a stern face no matter what time it was.
It's the same even when facing Sangsang.
It was as if someone owed him money.
"Okay, Fifth Brother and Sangsang make a pinky promise."
After Su Huaiming finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and hooked Sangsang's delicate white fingers, and spoke slowly: "Pin it, hang yourself, don't change for a hundred years, whoever changes..."
Su Huaiming paused here, and his eyes unconsciously fell on Sangsang, asking what Sangsang meant.
Sangsang tilted his head and thought for a while: "Whoever changes... whoever changes... will be punished by having Fifth Brother take Sangsang on a helicopter ride a hundred times. If Sangsang changes, he will take Fifth Brother on a helicopter ride a hundred times!"
Su Huaiming was amused by Sangsang's childish words.
He looked at Sangsang with all his eyes and coaxed the little girl in front of him in a gentle tone: "Okay, if Fifth Brother changes, Fifth Brother will take Sangsang on a helicopter ride a hundred times."
The sun had risen to its highest point at this moment, and the warm sunlight shone directly on Sangsang and Su Huaiming.
Sangsang's sad little face finally showed a bright smile again, as warm as the sun in the sky.
——
Su Hao and Yang Yangyang sat on the ground, resting their chins on their hands.
The endless arguments still linger in my ears.
At first, the two of them were playing games nearby and didn't pay attention to the argument between Grandpa Su and the others.
After playing a few more games, they were still arguing.
In the end, the two of them became impatient and reminded their parents to stop arguing.
Who would have thought that instead of stopping, the adults scolded these kind-hearted children.
Su Hao and Yang Yangyang were angry and just ignored it.
Let your parents continue arguing with the other party.
Anyway, they are not the ones wasting their saliva!
"I am Sangsang's biological grandfather. Giving money to Sangsang is my business. Besides, even if our Su family is really poor, we are not so poor that we cannot afford to raise a child."
Mr. Su particularly emphasized the word "close".
Yang Yangyang's parents on the opposite side were equally unwilling.
Just as they were about to say something, Mr. Su's cell phone suddenly rang, interrupting what Yang Yangyang's parents were about to say.
Mr. Su took out his cell phone from his bag.
The caller ID showed the three words "Su Jintian".
Why did Su Jintian call him for no reason?
Mr. Su frowned in confusion.
Finally, I pressed the answer button.
"What's wrong?"
There was displeasure in Mr. Su's voice.
Su Jintian didn't know why Mr. Su's tone was so fierce, as if he had eaten dynamite, but he explained it anyway.
"No, Dad. I want to ask where you and Su Hao are now? Why are Huaiming and Sangsang both home, but you haven't come back yet? Did you run into trouble on the way?"
When Mr. Su heard this, he was stunned for a moment.
"What? They went back?"
Old Master Su seemed to not believe it. He looked around, trying to find the shadows of Sangsang and Su Huaiming.
But no matter how hard he looked, he couldn't find it.
Su Hao curled his lips beside him, complaining to Grandpa Su in his tone: "That's right, Fifth Brother and Su Sangsang went back early in the morning, and you are the only one who is still arguing here, Grandpa, I reminded you, and you still accused me of meddling in your business..."
Yang Yangyang's parents didn't hear it at first. Su Jintian said on the phone that Sangsang had returned. Only after hearing Su Hao's words did they realize that Sangsang had returned with Su Huaiming.
The two men's initial reaction was the same as Grandpa Su's. They looked around, searching for Sangsang.
Finally, it was discovered that Sangsang had indeed returned.
Yang Yangyang's parents didn't stay in school for long. They said a few polite words to Mr. Su and took Yang Yangyang back home.
After all, Sangsang is no longer in school, and there is no point in them staying in school, so they might as well go back early.
After learning that Sangsang had returned, Mr. Su also rushed to the Su family villa with Su Hao.
Su Huaiming too!
She took Sangsang back without telling him in advance.
He only realized now that he had argued with Yang Yangyang's parents at school for so long, but in the end there was no result!
