CH 82

They returned home that night and found an extra pair of shoes in the entrance hall.

The shoes were all over the place, and Su Huanyi identified them carefully, “Third brother is back!”

Su Chi lowered his head and changed his shoes, “Announcing your independence is a big deal. He had to come back.”

Su Huanyi was embarrassed and said, “It’s not good to have him flying around all the time.”

Su Chi raised his eyes, “Then should he walk next time?”

They changed their shoes and walked inside. The lights in the living room were on, and the family was inside.

Su Yu leaned back on the sofa and waved lazily at them, “Big brother and little brother are back…”

“Third.”

“Welcome back, third brother ……”

Su Jitong was sitting in the middle of the sofa, and he said to them, “We were just waiting for you guys. Come and sit down.”

Su Huanyi immediately had a sense of a three-hall trial, and he grabbed at the hem of Su Chi’s sweater, “Dad, is there something wrong?”

Su Chi, who glanced at his now V-hemmed sweater: “…”

Yu Xinyan appeased his little anxiety by saying, “What else is there to talk about except the household register? The second and third don’t know yet, so let’s talk about it before the banquet. ”

His stiff strands of hair softened slightly as he walked into the living room and sat on the edge of the sofa. Su Chi followed him and sat down, his long arm reaching out to rest on the back of the sofa behind him.

Su Jitong frowned at this and was about to speak when he was interrupted.

“What’s the matter with the household register?” Su Jianchen turned to Su Yu and said, “Third brother, you don’t know either?”

Su Yu: “Mmm, I don’t know.”

Su Jianchen visibly relaxed his expression, “That’s good.”

Everyone: “…”

With this interruption, Su Jitong forgot to pay attention to Su Chi’s small movements for the time being as he returned to the main topic, “At the banquet in three days, we will be announcing an important matter to the public.”

With that, he paused for a moment. Su Jianchen leaned forward slightly and listened; Su Yu leaned to the side and played with the coin in his hand, seemingly unconcerned.

In the silence, Su Huanyi was a little nervous. He didn’t know if his second and third brothers would have any issues. His elder brother was fine with it, mostly because he was lusty, but his other two brothers were not.

“Su Huanyi.” Su Chi’s voice fell softly beside him, “Why do I get the feeling that you’re speculating about me?”

“…” Su Huanyi quickly collected his scattered thoughts as he sat upright, his voice soft, “How could it be?”

Su Chi gave him a faint glance before withdrawing his gaze.

When Su Jitong saw that everyone’s attention was highly focused, he spoke up at the right time, “Little Yi is no longer in our family’s household registration book.”

“What!?” Su Jianchen was shocked.

Su Yu’s action of playing with the coin stalled, and he abruptly raised his eyes and looked at Su Chi.

The latter calmly looked back as if he felt his gaze and no clue could be found in his expression. Su Yu raised his eyebrows and averted his gaze.

Su Jianchen was still in a state of shock and bewilderment, “Why!”

He pondered for two seconds, then cautiously looked at his parents, “You found his biological parents?”

The whole family: “…”

Su Jitong’s explanation got stuck in his mouth for a moment.

Su Huanyi’s nervousness vanished into thin air: he should have known that his second brother’s brain circuit was not that simple.

Su Jitong switched back on and restarted, “What I mean is that little Yi is going to stand on his own. A company will be set aside for him to manage in the future. Do you guys have any comments?”

The coin turned twice in the fingertips and the corners of Su Yu’s mouth hooked, “I have no opinion ah.” He ended up not family in the end.

Su Huanyi breathed a sigh of relief and turned his gaze back to Su Jianchen. Big brother and third brother had no opinion. So to fit in, I think second brother also…

“I don’t think it’s good.” Su Jianchen spoke seriously.

Su Huanyi: “…”

The originally relaxed atmosphere in the living room suddenly stagnated for a few moments. Yu Xinyan looked at her second son and asked, “What do you think is wrong, second?”

Su Jianchen, “Our family is not in order anymore.”

The whole family: “…” That should not be the point.

Su Huanyi’s complicated mood gave birth to a touch of emotion: even if the second brother becomes bright in the future, he will hang out with him some more.

Su Jitong explained, “Second, little Yi had to be moved out for his development. We’re still a family even if he’s not in the household register. ”

Su Jianchen wrinkled his brows in contemplation.

The situation was once again in a state of anxiety. After several minutes of silence, Su Chi suddenly spoke up, “Second, at present, our whole family has given the pass except for you.”

Su Jianchen’s eyebrows instantly relaxed, “Then so do I.”

Several meaningful gazes fell on Su Chi at the same time – a master snake fighter.

The matter of moving out of the household register ended in such a convoluted and smooth manner.

Seeing that it was getting late, Su Jitong got up to make his closing remarks, “Now that we’ve all given the pass, we will officially announce little Yi’s move out of the household register to the public in three days.”

Su Huanyi touched his little heart, thanking the Su family for their kindness.

“OK, everyone, go back to rest,” Su Jitong said.

“Dad, I have a small problem.” A hand rose high, cutting off the second half of his sentence.

Su Yu’s narrow eyes curved, “Why do you suddenly want to announce little brother’s move from the household register?”

Su Jitong froze. Su Chi had his long and slender fingers on his knee, tapping lightly.

Su Huanyi intuited that his third brother was digging a hole to bounce in again.

“Jitong?” Yu Xinyan looked at her husband, not understanding his sudden silence.

The latter frowned and thought for a moment before suddenly glancing at his eldest son! The expression on his face was like he was reacting to being sold and counting the money.

Throughout the whole process, Su Chi sat steadily on the sofa, motionless like a mountain.

Su Huanyi was startled by his dad’s epiphany and his hand poked Su Chi’s spine secretly: Big brother, big brother, what’s happening?

The steady mountain shivered a little at the poke, and Su Chi lowered his eyes at him.

Su Huanyi: “?”

Su Jitong took in the two people’s small movements and let out a big roar in his heart.

He raised his hand to shoo the others back, “You all go back and rest, the eldest stays.”

Su Yu was the first to get up, leaving leisurely with his hand in one pocket, incidentally picking up a very inquisitive Su Jianchen on his way.

Yu Xinyan’s eyes darted back and forth between the father and son. She opened her mouth but ultimately said nothing, only getting up and carrying the worried Su Huanyi away, “Little Yi, let’s first go up.”

Su Huanyi was taken up the stairs as he kept looking back, “Mom, I’m a bit worried.”

“Don’t worry, your dad just has a knife mouth and a tofu heart. He..”

“I’m worried that big brother is going to bully dad again.”

Yu Xinyan’s comforting words came to a screeching halt.

Downstairs in the living room, father and son sat opposite each other.

Su Jitong’s voice was deep, “Eldest, do you have anything to explain.”

Su Chi maintained the same sitting position as earlier, and he analyzed rationally, “Paper can’t hold fire. Our relationship will be made public one day. Declaring independence of the household can only be done in advance and can’t be delayed.”

Su Jitong finally connected the cause and effect, and he even recalled the ‘little gesture’ when Su Chi nodded at him when he came in.

What a sneaky move, even giving his old man a psychological hint!

“So the company suffered a joint attack because of you guys?”

Su Chi said calmly, “Yes.”

He said “yes,” but it was not. The opponents have been eyeing the Su Group for a long time, and the potential crisis only exploded at this moment.

It just so happened that it was time to clean all of them up.

Su Jitong guessed his eldest son’s intention, and he sneered, “Do you think it’s convenient to pile everything together to solve them?”

Su Chi nodded, “It’s quite convenient.”

Su Jitong felt his business authority was being challenged. “Convenient in what way?”

“It’s convenient to stand on the moral high ground and point fingers.”

There was a momentary stagnation in the air.

Su Jitong calmed down and skipped over his own eldest son’s evil taste, “Can you solve it well?”

“Yes.”

“I mean the two things.”

Su Chi’s gaze remained on his face for a few seconds. Su Jitong was sitting on the end of the sofa, both arms resting on his lap, vaguely showing the vigour and resolute character from back in the day.

Su Chi still nodded, “Yes.”

After a moment of silence, Su Jitong leaned back on the sofa and let out a breath of relief… it’s already been done, and it was useless for him to say anything against it now.

Besides, according to his rational judgment, Su Chi’s strategy was a win-win that maximized the benefits, and there was no fault to be found.

Perhaps it is easy to become soft-hearted when you are older. Su Jitong felt that he had had enough of being a “wicked mother-in-law,” so he might as well be a loving old father, which was more comfortable.

“Suit yourself.”

“Thank you, Dad.”

Su Jitong got up and said, “What are you thanking me for? Don’t blame me for not reminding you, there will be no shortage of voices talking about you at the banquet.”

“I know.” Su Chi also stood up. They had come to an agreement, and the two walked upstairs together.

“You guys need to be prepared.”

“Well, so does Dad.”

Su Jitong’s footsteps paused, “Why should I?”

Su Chi paused to look at him, “Mom might hear it too. Is Dad ready?”

Su Jitong: “…”

Su Chi reached out and patted him on the shoulder, “There are still three days left, Dad. Cook her quickly.”

Su Jitong: “…”

Until his son’s gallant figure disappeared, Su Jitong was still frozen in place as if struck by lightning–

Was his wife cooked or not!

Su Huanyi had gone back to his room and stayed close to the door to listen for any movement outside.

After about ten minutes, there was finally a noise in the corridor, and he hurriedly opened the door and poked his head out.

Outside the corridor, Su Chi was coming up to him.

His strands of hair beckoned, “Big Brother ……”

Su Chi made a few quick steps, and he grabbed the waving strands of hair and pushed the door in.

The door to the room closed behind them, and they returned to their little two-person space.

Su Huanyi rescued his strands of hair from under his hand and asked, “What did you talk about?”

Su Chi looked to be in a good mood as he went on to grip them again, “Nothing, just strategic cooperation.”

Su Huanyi felt suspicious from the bottom of his heart.

The look on his face was so obvious that Su Chi bent down to bite his lips, “Don’t you believe me?”

Su Huanyi leaned back but was dragged back by the waist to the edge of the bed.

He was keenly aware that his big brother’s kiss today was more passionate and daring than usual—

It was a deep kiss right off the bat, unlike the usually reserved grind on the outside first.

“Mmmm…hmm…” After five or six minutes of kissing, he collapsed onto the bed covers with weak knees. Su Chi propped himself on either side of him and lowered his head for a delicate bite.

Su Huanyi felt like he was covered with a heavy and hot quilt.

He put one hand on Su Chi’s shoulder and tilted his head slightly to catch his breath, “Big brother, I feel very confused.”

Su Chi was still trying to lower his head for a kiss. “What’s confusing?”

“You’re so excited that you make me think it’s our wedding banquet in three days.”

Su Huanyi looked up to see his big brother frozen above him, so he made an understandable analysis, “Is it because you’re going to make a big kill in three days and want to celebrate with an enthusiastic bobo first?”

“There’s nothing to celebrate about that.” Su Chi went back to his normal self and intertwined their fingers, “Su Huanyi, others can’t sway my emotions. Only you can. ”

With Su Chi’s handsome face close at hand and his back to the overhead light, Su Huanyi watched the long, thin lashes flutter slightly, revealing the seriousness at the bottom of his eyes.

His heart suddenly thundered, “I’m not a steering wheel. How can I sway you?”

“Do you remember what I said?”

“What?”

Su Chi’s fingers grazed the back of his hand, and their clasped hands tightened.

Su Chi reminded him, “What are we going to do when they’re all cooked?”
