Chapter 434: Chapter 435 A Sudden Question
Translator: Doggotranslation
My opponent’s strength was not strong, but after losing one match and tying one match, my seniors’ confidence was severely damaged. They wanted to win, but were afraid of losing. Because of this, they played very conservatively. Only I was eager to perform in front of my stepmother and Chu Yuan, and initiated a quick counterattack time and time again.
The result was that I naturally received the attention of my opponent. The tie was maintained until the last minute of the game. My opponent was too careless. As he lowered his guard at the last minute, I snatched the ball from him in the midfield and rushed towards the goal. However, the guy in the defense seemed to have some wrestling background. In order to stop me, he even ripped a big hole in the uniform that I had just put on the first time. In the end, in the embarrassed look of the seniors, I scored a point on the free-kick and helped my team to win the match.
After that game, Liusu would not stop bragging about me in front of other people.
Because I was embarrassed to admit that it was pure luck that I was able to score, Chu Yuan always thought that I was good at football, and because of this, she became a football fan…
Although the team gave me a new uniform, the one that was torn was still collected by me. To me, it had a lot of special meanings worth remembering…
Sure enough, the uniform Chu Yuan was wearing was my torn uniform, which had been fixed by my stepmother.
Where did this bratty girl find this uniform… Moreover, even if she wanted to wear it, why did she not wear the entire set? Why did she only wear the top?
I seemed to have indulged her too much recently. Not only did she check my mobile phone, she even searched my closet; she was clearly infringing on my privacy.
“Why did you just come back? Where’s Elder Sister Xiaoye? “Chu Yuan glanced at me and then turned around to look at TV again, for fear that Dongfang would cheat.
‘Dong Xiaoye hasn’t come back yet?’ I took off my coat and hung it on the hanger. While untying my tie, I walked behind the two girls and said, “After this game, take a break, Dongfang, I need to talk to you.”
I clearly saw that the two girls sitting on the ground trembled at the same time, and then…
Chu Yuan turned off the PS2, stretched her body, and yawned, “It’s getting late. It’s time to go to bed. It’s not really good for girls to stay up late.”
“That’s right, that’s right,” Dongfang turned off the TV, rubbed her neck, showing a tired look, and echoed: “It will not be good if you have dark circles under your eyes. Huh? Yuan Yuan, you are wearing the wrong slipper, that slipper is mine.”
“Oh? Haha, you’re right. Let’s swap it… Alright, it’s fine now.”
“Hee hee, you are so careless…”
The two bratty girls cooperated tacitly, joking with each other while retreating to the room, completely ignoring the fact that I had just talked to them.
“I know it’s not good to stay up late, but why are you still playing games at this time?” Although I was ignored by them, I wasn’t angry. I sat down on the sofa casually, looking forward to seeing their reactions.
“Elder Brother, you are so nosy. Can we still have some privacy?” Chu Yuan stood in front of Dongfang like a little mother tiger protecting her cub, and said fiercely,
“You are such a big man, how can you always ask a girl questions that she doesn’t want to answer? Are you not ashamed?”
‘I haven’t even said anything yet. How do they know that I want to ask some questions that she doesn’t want to answer? Clearly they feel guilty so they want to avoid me. Besides, it was you who told me what Dongfang did last night, right?’ I couldn’t help feeling speechless.
Dongfang continued her abnormal state. She, who had always been an unreasonable bratty girl, actually hid behind Chu Yuan like a frightened little bird, not daring to explain herself. Normally, it was her who always protected Chu Yuan, but today, the two bratty girls swapped their roles completely.
“I’m not interested in invading your little privacy,” When I was 16 years old, I also started to touch those things, so I had no right to lecture them. I originally just wanted to use Chu Yuan to get some information from Dongfang. I had no intention in lecturing her, “What I want to ask is another thing.”
Chu Yuan was dazed, but Dongfang breathed a sigh of relief, “An… Another thing?”
At this moment, Dong Xiaoye also came back and walked into the living room with heavy footsteps. She came back just at the right time. It saved me from explaining it to her again.
I solemnly said, “I want to talk to your mother. Of course, the premise is that you think it’s necessary.”
“What? !” Dongfang exclaimed, recovering her usual look. Her eyes moved around anxiously, and she asked me cautiously, “What if I don’t think it is necessary?”
I said lightly: “Either you go home by yourself, or I will take you home.”
Chu Yuan hurriedly said: “Elder Brother!”
I waved my hand to signal her to stop talking, and added: “As long as your mother agrees, you can come here to play with Yuan Yuan at any time, and I’ll take care of everything.”
“Come here to play with Yuan Yuan at any time? From where? Paris? Hehe, how would a stubborn, cold-blooded person like her agree to let me stay in Bei Tian city?”
Dongfang’s wry smile definitely wasn’t genuine, but her evaluation of her mother seemed to be from the bottom of the heart. Was there really such a bad mother in the world?
“That’s why I said that if you feel that it’s necessary, I can help you persuade her,” I calmly said to her: “If I can’t change her mind, you still have your Elder Sister Dong. If your Elder Sister Dong can’t change her mind, you still have your Ms. Shu. If she still can’t change her mind, I’ll ask my old man to come out to persuade her. His set of philosophy can even change rock’s mind, let alone your mother.”
Chu Yuan began to waver, she also felt that it was not a bad idea. Dong Xiaoye’s lips moved a few times, but eventually, she didn’t say anything to help Dongfang. After all, everyone knew that hiding would not solve the problem.
Dongfang understood that I was serious this time. She stared at her toes, struggling for a while before raising her head again, “Okay, but I have one condition!”
. . .
In front of the family, Shu Tong was like a child in her rebellious period, but when the train was gradually going away, she was reluctant to leave for a long time.
Liusu gently poked me in the waist and asked with a suspicious expression, “You just secretly stuffed a paper bag to my aunt, what’s in it?”
Her eyes were really sharp. I did it so secretly, but it was still noticed by her.
“Money,” I didn’t conceal it from her, “I was thinking about giving it to her last night, but then I thought that she might tell Shu Tong about it, so I decided to give it to her when she gets on the train… It’s so hot in summer, do you really want your uncle to work outside? Farming is already very hard, I’m worried that if he works like that, he will collapse eventually.”
“How much did you give her?”
“Fifty thousand.”
“Fifty thousand? !” Liusu almost cried out in surprise, “Why so much? You are really generous. How much do you even earn in a month?”
I smiled and said, “our salaries are about to be increased, right? I heard from Elder Sister Liu that if a new project team is formed in our company, our salaries will be increased to thirty to fifty thousand yuan a month, and that does not even count the dividends; so it is just a month’s salary. It’s not a big deal.”
“You don’t need to fool me, you think I don’t know about you?” Liusu rolled her eyes at me and curiously said, “How did you tell my aunt? It’s impossible for her to just accept the money directly.”
“Why is it impossible? You have to understand that in your aunt’s eyes, I am not only the boss of a big company who earns thousands of Chinese yuan per minute, but also her future son-in-law.”
Thinking of Mother Shu’s ambiguous smile just now, I said helplessly, “I just said that it was a small gift for her to buy some snacks for grandma, or buy some tobacco and alcohol for uncle. I also reminded her not to tell Shu Tong lest she would get angry… Then your aunt just accepted it with a smile. ”
How could Liusu not understand the complaint in my words? The whole plan of deceiving her family turned out to be a mess. Although I had some responsibilities, the people who were mainly responsible for this mess were still she and Shu Tong.
Dong Xiaoye was gloating on the side, which was understandable, but why did Min Rou also giggle? I turned my head and coldly said to this annoying woman, “I want to see your boss.”
“What?” Not just Min Rou, even Liusu and Dong Xiaoye also didn’t expect me to suddenly say such a sentence.
“I said, I want to see your employer.” Now that Shu Tong’s family finally left the city, I no longer had any worries.
It was time for me to find out what exactly was going on. I must find out what happened to Ziyuan, and then… I would give Liusu an explanation and Mo Fei an answer.
Min Rou looked at my expressionless face in a daze. After a long silence, she smiled gracefully: “Okay, I’ll help you make an appointment with her.”
My request was sudden, but she also agreed readily.
. . .
When I got to the hospital, Brother Wei had already changed his clothes and was ready to leave the hospital. Seeing me coming in, he pulled me away without saying a word.
“Why are you pulling me away? I haven’t seen Old Black and Xiao Sun yet.”
“See my ass. The reason why I want to leave the hospital as soon as possible is that I really don’t want to live in the same ward with those two fuckers. Just what kind of people they are!” Brother Wei said with dissatisfaction. He blocked the door, and continued with a disdain, “The owner of Early Paradise invited the families of those two fuckers to dinner last night, and gave them the money at the dinner table. Xiao Sun got 40,000, and Old Black got 80,000. And that doesn’t count the medical fee and other expenses. They are so satisfied with the arrangement that they are planning to stay in the hospital for two more months. So you have many opportunities to see them.”
I know that Brother Wei was angry at those people for being greedy, but I still couldn’t help but chuckle, “Don’t say that, the two of them were implicated by us after all…”
