CH 8

Su Huanyi kept his promise and started to work on Su Chi’s meals.

The next day’s breakfast was rice balls, and he woke up ten minutes early to turn Su Chi’s rice ball into a heart shape. The bright morning light fell on the rice ball as if it was coated with holy light.

Wu Ma, who had just finished setting up the breakfast, looked stunned, “Young Master, you…”

Su Huanyi turned to explain, “It’s a surprise for big brother.”

Wu Ma. “You didn’t wash your hands.”

“…” Su Huanyi was silent for a long time, then held up a beautiful little finger and said, “Keep it as our little secret.”

When Su Jitong and Yu Xinyan came downstairs, they saw that the shape of the rice ball in front of their eldest son’s seat was very unique, different from the other rice balls on the table.

Su Jitong. “Was that rice ball crushed?”

Su Huanyi, who was standing at the doorway, narrowed his eyes.

Wu Ma hurriedly said, “The young master kneaded this love rice ball. It is a surprise for the eldest young master. ”

Su Jitong marvelled, “No wonder it looks so good!”

Yu Xinyan, “…”

Su Huanyi drifted away, “It was the only one I made.”

Su Jitong’s eyes instantly burned as he looked at the rice ball!

……

Amid the unspeakable atmosphere, Su Chi arrived late. The moment he entered the door, Su Huanyi turned to look at him eagerly, “Big brother is up?”

“Yes.” Su Chi looked wary as he walked to his seat. He looked down and saw a flat triangular-shaped ball on the table.

He picked it up and examined it carefully, “2D dumplings?”

Su Huanyi was coy, “Love rice ball.”

Su Chi’s expression twisted for a moment. What a skewed love!

Su Jitong gnashed his teeth next to him, “Little Yi got up early in the morning to make this for you. Even I, the father who brought him up with my own hands, couldn’t eat it, so don’t be…dismissive of your brother’s good intentions. ”

Su Huanyi guessed that he wanted to say “don’t be arrogant.”

Su Huanyi tried to maintain family harmony, “Then I will make yam taro cake for mum and dad this afternoon.”

Su Jitong’s cloudy expression quickly turned to sunny! The weather forecast couldn’t even catch up with the speed of his change.

“I knew Xiao Yi would never forget dad.”

Yu Xinyan did not want to participate in this drama.

A treacherous breakfast ended.

Su Huanyi was like a little salted fish, paralysed all morning before he began to make yam and taro cake in the afternoon.

The yam and taro were soft and ready when Sun Huanyi’s phone started ringing, “I have been asking for you in the group several times. Why haven’t you answered?”

He was taking the yam and taro out of the pot and almost burned his hand, “I was steaming taro and didn’t look at my phone.”

Sun Heyu froze, “Steaming taro? Do you know how to cook? ”

“I even made a love rice ball for my big brother this morning.”

Sun Heyu marvelled, “I didn’t expect you to be able to make rice balls!”

“No, I can only knead love hearts, not rice balls.”

“…” Sun Heyu: “Turn the camera on and I’ll take a look.”

Su Huanyi felt that Sun Heyu was simply doubting him. He was speechless for a long time and then tolerantly opened the camera.

As soon as the camera was turned on, the white steam poured into Sun Heyu’s face. Su Huanyi adjusted to an angle that could take in the upper half of his body, and then lowered his head to do his own thing.

Sun Heyu only saw the steam dissipate, revealing a slim figure. The person in the shot was holding a white porcelain bowl in one hand and putting the rolled taro into the bowl with the other, his side face focused, his eyes clear and bright.

He looked like a Michelin-starred chef.

If he hadn’t experienced Su Huanyi’s look after his “superb” marksmanship, he would almost have believed it.

“By the way, why were you asking for me in the group?” Su Huanyi took his chopsticks and drove a yam that had rolled onto the table back to the bowl as if he was playing golf.

Sun Heyu lost his appetite and said, “I wanted to know if you would like to join me in selling wine.”

“I have an uncle who has a new batch of wine in his factory that hasn’t been put on the market yet, so I want to buy a batch to sell. Do you want to join the business? ”

Su Huanyi said, “Okay, but let’s visit your uncle’s factory first.”

“Sure. I’ll ask Zhou Qingcheng and the three of us will go this Friday. ”

“Okay.”

Su Huanyi was waiting for him to hang up when he heard Sun Heyu say hesitantly, “Just don’t eat it yourself…”

Su Huanyi squashed his taro into a paste, “Why?”

“I’m afraid it’ll delay business.”

“……?”

The moment Su Chi came back in the evening and saw the yam and taro cake, it was as if his whole soul was taken over and he stood still in front of the table for more than ten seconds!

It took him a while to come back to his senses, and he pointed at the fist-sized balls, “Stretch legs and stare pills?”

Su Huanyi hung his head shyly.

By the time Su Jitong and Yu Xinyan saw the yam and taro balls, Su Chi had already returned to his normal state. He even gestured to Su Jitong with a “please” gesture, saying, “Xiao Yi specially rolled them all afternoon to pay tribute to you. You should not be… dismissive of my brother’s good intentions.”

Su Jitong, “…”

Su Huanyi suddenly felt that Su Jitong’s doting on the original owner was not without reason. Su Chi could give such critical hits. Su Jitong could only get warmth from the black-hearted jacket of Su Huanyi.

As soon as he woke up on Friday morning, Su Wuyi changed into a set of clothes for going out. Su Jitong noticed during breakfast, “Are you going out today?”

Su Huanyi bit into his steamed bun. “I have an appointment with a friend.”

“Where are you going? Let the family driver take you there. ”

“No need, I’ll take a taxi to the city and then continue in my friend’s car.”

For the time being, Su Huanyi did not want his family to know his intentions. He wanted to earn the first amount of money on his own and then buy a gift for Su Jitong and Yu Xinyan.

Su Jitong wanted to say something else, but Yu Xinyan stopped him with a look. He could only regretfully give up, “Alright then, be safe.”

Su Chi’s car was driving out the gate as Su Huanyi was waiting outside for the DiDi cab driver. Huanyi waved his arms, “Big brother, big brother!”

The car slowly pulled up and the windows came down, revealing Su Chi’s handsome face, matching the luxury car like a magazine model.

“Something wrong?”

Su Huanyi wandered over, “Aren’t you going to ask me who I’m meeting and what I’m going to do?”

“Would you tell me?”

“No.”

Su Chi snorted, “Then why should I ask?”

Su Huanyi then said, “But it’d give me a little warmth if you ask. I’d be in good spirits all day. ”

He was answered by the rising car window and the exhaust of the car that was speeding off…….

It was about an hour’s drive from the Su residence to the city. Su Huanyi arrived at the appointed place and found Zhou Qingcheng and Sun Heyu already there.

The Sun Heyu family chauffeur was the one driving. Sun Heyu asked them to sit in the spacious back seat and took two bottles of cocktail fruit drinks from the car refrigerator.

On the way to the distillery, Sun Heyu gave a detailed account of the situation: “My uncle’s distillery is quite big and is also a listed company. They even produced the famous Ling wine the year before last. This time, they are launching Kun wine. The quality is quite good, and with the reputation of the previous Ling wine, it won’t lag in sales. ”

Zhou Qingcheng was purely playful, “I’ll follow you, it doesn’t matter if I make a profit or a loss! I don’t know anything anyway. ”

It was the first time Su Huanyi saw someone saying “I don’t know anything” in such a straightforward manner.

Sun Heyu added, “Su Huanyi, don’t put all your money on the line too. As long as you’re in the Su family’s account book, you’ll never be short of money anyway. ”

“I’ll live within my means.”

Su Huanyi didn’t say anything about the fact that he was no longer on the Su family’s household register.

He was moved out when he was eighteen years old, something only Su Jitong and Yu Xinyan knew about. Even the original owner only found out when he inadvertently went through Su Jitong’s bookcase.

And then began a series of death-defying journeys.

However, Su Huanyi had a God’s perspective when he read the novel. He knew that Su Jitong did not remove him because “he did not want to share his family’s assets” as the original owner thought. On the contrary, Su Jitong intended to hand a company over to him after he had graduated and worked for two years.

Even if the Su family was prominent, the title of “adopted son” is not a good one. Only when he is truly independent can he be recognized by the upper class.

However, he met a white-eyed wolf, and his sincerity over the years was paid back with unkindness!

Su Huanyi looked out of the window at the suburban scenery and felt sad.

“We’ll be there in about forty minutes, I’ll send the relevant information to the group first, so you can take a look.”

Sun Heyu’s words brought Su Huanyi’s thoughts back and he settled down to look through the information.

Zhou Qingcheng had a small question mark on his face, “Can you understand it? I can’t understand anything. ”

Su Huanyi, who used to study law and finance, said, “I can probably understand.”

Zhou Qingcheng tsked, “Rumors are not to be believed. Do you know that your nickname has been updated again? ”

Su Huanyi didn’t know, “It’s not Little Train anymore?”

“The Feng family’s oldest called you ‘Cute Waste.’ But at least there’s a ‘cute,’ which means you’re not an ordinary scum,” Zhou Qingcheng consoled.

Su Huanyi sighed in admiration.”… You’re good at comforting people. ”

The distillery was located on the outskirts of the northern part of the city and covered a wide area, so people needed to be strictly carded in and out.

Sun Heyu had informed them in advance, and as soon as they got off the bus, a staff member led them towards the workshop.

“Over here are the wine storage tanks, in which we keep all our liquor in stock. The maximum capacity of each tank is around two hundred tonnes. Up ahead is the production workshop-”

It was Su Huanyi’s first time at a distillery, and the moment he walked into the workshop, the smell of fermentation hit him.

The entire distillery had three floors, but the interior was hollow. At a glance, the assembly line is clear and smooth, with semi-mechanised and semi-manual production. It was a rigorous operation and an excellent process.

At least it looks reliable.

After visiting the workshop, the brewers brought over the original syrup for them to taste. Zhou Qingcheng couldn’t drink white wine, so he stuck his tongue out while Su Huanyi tasted two mouthfuls.

Sun Heyu asked, “How’s that, not bad, right?”

Su Huanyi smacked his lips and took a few more sips, “It’s good.”

When the winemaker saw that he was smacking his glass to the bottom, he was startled and said, “Don’t drink too much, it has a strong aftertaste!”

“Oh.” Su Huanyi licked his lower lip, patted Sun Heyu and stretched out two fingers.

Sun Heyu was surprised, “Yeah?”

Su Huanyi was speechless. “I mean, I’m going to buy two million yuan’s worth of wine.”

Zhou Qingcheng stopped sticking his tongue out and reached over to check his breath, “Are you drunk?”

Su Huanyi was dumbfounded, “…..” The drunk one must be you…

……….

Su Huanyi was originally a very good drinker. He often drank away with his roommates when he was in school.

But he overestimated this body’s alcohol tolerance.

The strength of the Kun wine was not low. He drank it in a hurry. HH had also had a cocktail before, and when the two kinds of liquor were mixed, the aftereffect was as strong as a tall building.

When Su Huanyi was in the car, he felt his cheeks burning and tears about to fall down his face. It was already late in the day, and the ginkgoes by the roadside were shaking their huge canopies into a mass of shadows; like the road from his high school building to the teaching building.

It was after ten o’clock when the car stopped outside the Su residence, and from outside the gate, one could see that the lights were still on inside the house.

After entering the door, Su Huanyi slammed it shut, changed his shoes at the entrance, and went inside.

As he passed the kitchen door, he heard the sound of water pouring, and feeling of fullness came to his bladder.

When he looked around, he saw a tall man standing in front of the kitchen counter with broad shoulders. There was a slight shrug in his shoulders as he lifted the glass of water.

Su Huanyi narrowed his eyes. Which class was this man from? So handsome! How come he had never seen him before?

He walked up and patted his shoulder, releasing goodwill, “Eh bro, wanna go pee together?”

Clang! The glass knocked heavily on the kitchen counter, and Su Chi almost spilled the water.

He turned his head with a wrinkled brow and was about to reprimand, “You-”

Su Huanyi suddenly smiled and unzipped his trousers with a loud zip sound.
