Su Jiani asked doubtfully.
"Can it be controlled?"
Gu Xiaojiu said with great conviction.
"Yes, it's definitely possible!"
At this moment, the waiter brought over the newly ordered burger.
Gu Xiaojiu put on disposable gloves and started showing off his hamburger. His unrestrained eating habits were quite different from his delicate appearance.
Su Jianni stared at him, her mind uncontrollably drifting to Su Luo; the way they ate really did look quite alike.
Huh?
Something seems off.
Su Luo eats so fast because she grew up in an orphanage. Every time she ate, she had to compete with the other children in the orphanage for food, and if she ate slowly, she would go hungry.
Over time, this led to the habit of wolfing down one's food.
Gu Xiaojiu is quite wealthy, isn't she? Her clothes and belongings are all quite expensive. She shouldn't be like this.
I couldn't help but say.
"Are you a reincarnated starving ghost? Why are you eating so fast?"
Gu Xiaojiu immediately stopped and gave an apologetic smile.
"I'm used to it."
Su Jiani asked curiously.
"Didn't you just say your family was in the clothing business? What, was your family very poor when you were a child?"
Gu Xiaojiu shook her head.
"I'm not poor, but my parents don't really take care of me. They're never home, so I often go hungry."
Su Jiani was even more puzzled.
"Then why not hire a nanny?"
Gu Xiaojiu took a bite of the hamburger and mumbled something.
"I...I don't know either..."
He had actually hired a nanny before, and he had a pretty good impression of her. She was only in her early thirties, still charming and beautiful.
Later, he accidentally witnessed the nanny climbing into his father's bed while his mother was not home.
Then I found out that the nanny was my father's mistress. The woman wanted to get more money from her mistress, make it easier to meet her, and find it exciting to have an affair at home, so she came to work as a nanny.
Su Jianni frowned slightly, her intuition telling her that things weren't that simple, and said seriously.
"No, I feel like you're lying. Tell me the truth now! Or I'll teach you a lesson!"
Gu Xiaojiu swallowed the hamburger with difficulty, glanced at the customers at the surrounding tables, and seeing that no one was paying attention to her, whispered to Su Jiani.
"Because the nanny we hired before was my dad's mistress, after my mom found out, we never hired a nanny again."
"ha?!!"
Su Jiani was so shocked that her mouth dropped open.
Isn't that absurd?
Is this something a human being could do?
You beast!
No wonder Gu Xiaojiu is abnormal; it turns out she has such a beastly father. It's no wonder a child growing up in such an environment can't be normal!
Gu Xiaojiu lowered her head awkwardly, avoiding eye contact with Su Jiani, and continued eating her hamburger.
Su Jiani must feel disgusted.
It doesn't matter, as long as she doesn't leave me.
Su Jianni was silent for a while, then suddenly made a suggestion.
"Let's go see a movie after we eat."
Gu Xiaojiu looked up in surprise, "Watching a movie?"
Su Jiani said awkwardly.
"Yeah, didn't you say you wanted to go last time? Since you behaved well in front of my dad this time, I'll go with you this time. What, you don't want to go anymore?"
"No, I want to go, I really want to go!"
Gu Xiaojiu smiled happily, (づ??????)づ!
Su Jiani nodded slightly.
She wasn't quite sure what her motivation was to fulfill his small wish.
Perhaps it was because he had just calmly recounted his painful past experiences to her.
Perhaps it was out of a little sympathy for him.
But Su Jiani quickly denied this conjecture.
She has never been a good person; she has little compassion, is completely incapable of empathizing with others, and has always been self-centered.
Why is that?
I don't know, that's strange.
...
at the same time.
Su Luo rushed home.
But Song Lingshan kept him outside the door, and no matter how much he apologized outside, she refused to open it.
"Honey, it's so cold! I feel like I'm about to freeze to death. If you don't open the door soon, I'm going to freeze to death outside. Can you really bear to let me freeze to death outside?"
"Honey, I really know I was wrong. Please open the door, okay?"
In the living room.
Song Lingshan sat lazily on the sofa with her legs crossed, holding the remote control and flipping through boring TV channels.
Su Yu, who was playing with a Kamen Rider figure next to Song Lingshan, couldn't bear to see her father outside. She put the figure on the coffee table, gently tugged at Song Lingshan's sleeve, and asked for her opinion.
"Mom, Dad knows he was wrong, can we open the door for him?"
Song Lingshan snorted coldly and said sharply.
"He doesn't know he's wrong; he knows he'll be sleeping outside tonight."
Su Yu blinked, her little brain working rapidly, and she hit the nail on the head.
"Mom, please forgive him. Why are you jealous of his daughter?"
Song Lingshan was already furious, and her son's words made her explode. She glared at him and said...
"You're talking nonsense! Who's jealous of his daughter? Whose side are you on anyway? I'm your own mother! How can you side with an outsider? Besides, that's not his daughter, just his adopted daughter. Do you even understand what an adopted daughter is?"
"I'm not jealous, I just hate the way he handles things. You're just a little kid, you wouldn't understand!"
Su Yu suddenly realized.
“Adopted daughter…”
No wonder she's so much older than me, she's an adopted daughter!
But he really didn't think there was anything wrong with his father's way of handling problems.
When your daughter and wife have a conflict, you should definitely remain neutral, but unfortunately, if you side with either of them, the other will be hurt.
But when Mom was angry and carried him away, Dad didn't quickly chase after her, so it's normal for Mom to be angry.
So, how exactly do you calm your mother down?
Yes.
The artillery fire can be redirected.
Su Yu said aggressively.
“Dad does have a problem, coming home so late, but I think it’s all Su Jiani’s fault. She went too far and had no manners at all. Mom is her elder, how could she talk to her like that?”
Secretly in my heart.
Sister Jia Ni, I'm so sorry.
I don't have a problem with you. I was just trying to calm my mom down. I'm really sorry. I still admire you. Although you are indeed a bit rude, you have a lot of personality and you're so beautiful!
Song Lingshan raised her eyebrows in disbelief. She never expected that her son would actually speak up for her and even scold Su Jiani on her behalf.
She clearly remembered how dismissive her son was when he called Su Jiani "sister".
She didn't know what her son was thinking, but his words did ease her anxiety considerably.
Seeing that her mother's expression had softened considerably, Su Yu continued.
"Your mother was so angry with you, she went so far, but you didn't lay a hand on her. You were so magnanimous and had such a broad mind!"
Song Lingshan couldn't help but laugh and tapped his head with her hand.
"Come on, that's definitely not what you really think."
Su Yu solemnly raised three fingers, making it look very serious.
"It's from the bottom of my heart, really! I swear!"
