Su Xiaonai picked up a stalk of daisy crown and pointed at its roots.
“Look at its core. If it’s white, it means that it’s been out here for too long. Then it’s not fresh.”
Su Mubai nodded in understanding. Su Xiaonai picked a few good cabbages and put them in her shopping cart before going to pay the bill.
In the parking lot, Su Mubai considerately opened the trunk for Su Xiaonai to put the bag in the trunk.
Then, the two of them got into the car. Su Xiaonai started the car and drove home.
‘When they got home,only the old lady was left in the living room. Su Mubei hadn’t come out of his bedroom yet. Su Xiaonai placed the vegetables in the sink and Su Mubai walked in, wanting to help.
Su Xiaonai suggested in a gentle tone.
“Mubai, go chat with the old lady.”
After Su Mubai received her order, she nodded and dutifully walked to the old lady and started chatting with her.
Seeing such a harmonious scene, Su Mubai couldn’t help but smile. She seemed to be in a good mood.
Su Mubai first used a small bowl to make the sauce, mixing soy sauce with vinegar, sugar, corn starch, and a little salt into a small bowl.
Then, the cabbage was cut into strips, while the garlic was ground, and the ginger was cut into several pieces.
After the pot was heated, she added in some oil, minced garlic, and dried chili peppers. She fried them until they were fragrant. Then, she placed the cabbage in the pot and began to stir-fry it. When it was almost cooked, she poured the sauce in.
She continued to stir-fry, taking out a small bowl of water and pouring it in, then closing the lid for five minutes. After that, she set the stove to high heat to make the sauce thicker, and the dish would be ready.
Following that was scrambled eggs with tomatoes. She cut the tomatoes into pieces, put two eggs into the bowl, and stirred.
After the pot was heated, she poured a certain amount of oil into it, added the beaten eggs, and stir-fried. When it was almost cooked, she scooped out the egg and placed it aside.
Adding more oil into the pot, she put the cut tomatoes into the pot, added a pinch of salt, and stir-fried them. Finally, she added the scrambled eggs back, casually stir-fried them, and scattered some spring onions on top.
Su Xiaonai’s phone rang, indicating that curry beef was ready in the pressure cooker.
Su Xiaonai placed the dishes on the plates and placed them on the dining table. She removed her apron and greeted Su Mubai and the old lady in the living room.
“Food’s done. We can have dinner now.”
Su Mubai immediately turned around and replied.
“OK”
Seeing that Su Mubei was still not awake, Su Xiaonai was a little worried. She walked into the corridor and stopped in front of his bedroom.
She knocked on the door lightly, but there was no response for a long time.
Su Xiaonai couldn’t hold back her worry and opened the door without permission. She saw Su Mubei sleeping soundly on the bed.
She sighed in relief.
Su Xiaonai walked quietly to Su Mubei’s side and helped brush his messy hair away. She then patted his cheek gently.
“Mubéi, it’s time for dinner. Get up.”
Unsatisfied with being disturbed, Su Mubei turned over and continued to sleep.
Su Xiaonai had no choice but to lift the blanket and help Su Mubei up. She raised her voice slightly as she spoke.
“Diner’s ready. Stop sleeping, you sleepyhead.”
‘When Su Mubei heard that he had been scolded, he immediately perked up and widened his eyes at Su Xiaonai.
“Mommy?!”
He rubbed his sleepy eyes and yawned widely.
“Mommy, what time is it now?”
Su Xiaonai stroked his hair and glanced at the time on her phone before answering.
“It’s 7:30 pm.”
Upon hearing that, Su Mubei was completely awake. He quickly got off the bed, put on his slippers, and ran to the dining room.
In the dining room, everyone had taken their seats. The children only picked up their food after the old lady.
Su Mubai had an especially good appetite today. She ate two bowls of rice in one go, both with scrambled eggs with tomatoes.
“It’s so good! Mommy, can you make this tomorrow?”
Su Xiaonai pulled out a tissue and handed it to Su Mubai, asking her to wipe the corners of her mouth.
“Sure, but you’ll have to finish it.”
Su Mubai made an OK gesture and patted her chest.
“Of course, scrambled eggs with tomatoes are the best.”
Su Mubei couldn’t help but complain as he listened.
“That’s what you say every time. As long as it’s something edible.”
Su Mubai gritted her teeth and glared at Su Mubei.
“It’s because you’re too picky. You don’t know anything about cuisine.”
Su Mubei smiled casually.
“Yeah, right. At least I’m pretty thin.”
Su Mubai was infuriated by the implication.
“Yep, you’re almost skin and bones.”
Su Mubei was not going to argue with Su Mubai. He ignored Su Mubai’s attack and started eating.
Su Xiaonai watched and didn’t stop their argument. These two kids were quite fun sometimes.
‘The next night, Su Xiaonai appeared at the entrance of the Su Corporation building. She was wearing a blue sweater vest on top of a white sweater, a pair of jeans with black platform shoes.
She looked smart and classy. This attire would definitely attract a lot of attention.
Su Xiaonai hailed a taxi and gave him the address of the Changhua Hotel.
The driver said, “Alright, please fasten your seatbelt.”
‘The car sped along the street. Su Xiaonai looked out the window at the streets outside. She seemed to be thinking about something, and her fingers lightly stroked her phone.
It seemed like she had to play dirty.
After all, she could not count on Ji Anren to stop the acquisition of the Su Corporation. She had to rely on herself.
However, she felt a little guilty doing this to Su Jiaojiao.
But she had no other choice. Well, Su Jiaojiao would have to suffer.
If she had to play dirty, she was going all in.
Half an hour later, the taxi arrived at the entrance of Chang Hua Hotel. Su Xiaonai existed the car.
The waiter walked over considerately and asked Su Xiaonai if she had booked a room. Su Xiaonai nodded and told him the room number.
The waiter smiled and led the way.
Before long, they arrived at room 930 and the waiter left. Su Xiaonai pushed the door open and looked over. She noticed Su Jiaojiao sitting in her seat.
Su Jiaojiao couldn’t help but mock her when she saw her.
“Why are you so slow? Didn’t you set the time?”
Su Xiaonai ignored Su Jiaojiao’s sarcasm and explained seriously.
“We were in a traffic jam. I’m just five minutes late.”
Su Jiaojiao snorted coldly. She wasn’t going to fall for it. Su Xiaonai put down her backpack and went straight to the point.
“So why are you selling Su Corporation?”
$u Jiaojiao rolled her eyes and prepared herself to deal with Su Xiaonai..
