Chapter 277: Chapter 275 Let’s Go Register_1

Su Qinglong had not intended to visit C City again, but upon hearing Shanshan’s words, it seemed he had no choice but to make the trip.

"Alright, great-grandfather will be there soon," he assured her.

"That’s wonderful~~"

After hanging up the phone, Shanshan’s face beamed with joy, but the elderly Su in Canada was so anxious he could hardly sit still.

He glanced at Little Tuanzi in front of him with an air of irritation and burst out, "Can you believe that damn kid won them over so quickly... No way, I can’t let that little brat bully my granddaughter any longer."

"Great-grandfather... It’s not like Mommy said anything, and you’re taking my sister’s word for it?" Yaoyao calmly tried to soothe the agitated grandfather.

Shanshan, that girl, had always been unreliable with her words. She must be bored of playing by herself and made up an excuse for them to join her there.

With Yaoyao’s reasoning, Su’s anxiety eased considerably. Slapping his thigh, he exclaimed, "Why didn’t I think of that? Quick, call your mommy."

"Mommy definitely didn’t bring her phone. Just now, sister was using Mommy’s phone to call me." Yaoyao confirmed again that this time Shanshan must have made the call secretly; their mommy definitely didn’t know.

This fully calmed Su down, but irrespective of whether Shanshan’s words were true, he remained uneasy. If his kind granddaughter got deceived again by the crafty foxes of the Mu Family, what then?

He knew the Mu Family all too well, especially that old fox—so sly!

"Yaoyao, shall we also go to C City in a few days to have a look, okay?" Now that Shanshan was staying with the Mu Family, getting them to come back was almost impossible, so he had no choice but to go there himself.

"Mm," Yaoyao nodded, his delicate and cute little face maintaining a cool expression.

"Great, then it’s settled!"

Meanwhile, Su Wanxia, after hearing the words of Shanshan, immediately ran to find Mu Yingchen, but as she arrived downstairs, she happened to see him finishing up with the butler about design and renovation matters.

Her heart skipped a beat, sure that they were discussing Shanshan’s situation.

She quickened her pace and, when she reached Mu Yingchen, the butler had already left.

"Shanshan doesn’t need a room..." Su Wanxia blurted out as she approached him.

Mu Yingchen ignored the real meaning behind her words and smiled lightly, saying, "Are you suggesting she should stay in our room with us?"

"Achen, you know what I mean." Her point was that Shanshan and she would not likely be living there long-term, so there was no need for a room.

"I don’t know..." Mu Yingchen said, his gaze steady on her.

Su Wanxia froze, her words having clearly hurt him.

"All I know is that you should live here, and since she’s our child, she should be here too," Mu Yingchen’s voice was soft, yet it tugged at Su Wanxia’s heart.

Still silent, Su Wanxia found herself unable to refute what Mu Yingchen had said.

"Wanxia, shall we go to the civil affairs office?" Mu Yingchen suddenly suggested.

Stunned, Su Wanxia stood motionless. Did he understand what he was saying?

"Let’s go register..." Mu Yingchen sighed slightly and reached out to hold her slightly stiff fingertips.

He was eager to keep her by his side, to make it so she could never escape, to have her with him forever.

A flicker of impulse ignited in Su Wanxia’s heart; in that instant, she truly wanted to nod in agreement. But recalling his mother’s words, her heart suddenly chilled. If she agreed now, it would be he who ended up in trouble later.

Caught between a mother and a wife, such a life would only exhaust him further, and neither she nor his mother would be happy. Moreover, their relationship might continue to deteriorate. What then?

"Just wait a little longer..." She lowered her head slightly, her voice calm, but her heart was trembling violently.

A deep sense of loss flashed through Mu Yingchen’s dark eyes. Had he been too impatient?

"Alright, after Grandpa’s birthday, I will make my stance clear to them."

He thought for a long time, even if they didn’t agree this time, he wouldn’t let her leave again. Even if everyone opposed them, he wanted to be with her. He didn’t want to miss out again and end up with regrets—

Su Wanxia looked up into those obsidian eyes, filled with deep affection, and couldn’t help but smile as she nodded at him.

Mu Yingchen could no longer control the palpitations in his heart. With a firm pull, he wrapped her into his embrace.

The spring breeze gently passed by the two of them, and without resistance, he leaned down and planted a kiss on her smooth forehead.

If only time could stop at this moment, then he could hold her forever without regrets—

Su Ran had been shamelessly staying at Jian Manhui’s home and just wouldn’t leave, and Jian Manhui was at her wit’s end. In the evening, she was even forced to cook him dinner herself.

She was frustrated beyond belief, a hundred, a thousand times over. The thickness of this man’s skin was simply unmatched.

She leaned against the door, eyeing the man on the sofa watching TV with contempt.

"You’ve eaten and drunk, isn’t it about time you went back?"

Su Ran looked up at her and then, with a crooked smile, said, "It’s still early..."

Jian Manhui felt like spitting blood in frustration. Still early? How much longer did he plan to stay?

"Hey, can you have a little self-awareness? I need to rest, and your presence here is affecting my schedule."

"Then don’t mind me, go back to your room and rest. I can sleep on the sofa for the night," said Su Ran, ever the shocker.

"What?" Jian Manhui was astonished.

He wanted to stay here for the night? How could that be acceptable?

"Mr. Su, don’t push your luck..." She cooked him a meal just to get him out the door sooner. But now he was full and wanted to stay the night? Was he dreaming?

"Scared now?" Su Ran teased.

"I am not. It’s my home," Jian Manhui said, nearly passing out from frustration. What kind of person is this!

"Don’t be angry, just kidding—" Su Ran had the audacity to throw in another taunt.

Jian Manhui was trembling with anger, this shameless man!

"Then I’m leaving. I’ll come over tomorrow to keep you company," he said.

"Don’t! I don’t need your company!" Jian Manhui immediately refused.

"Just kidding..." Su Ran walked to the door and, turning around, dropped another maddeningly infuriating comment.

Jian Manhui was on the brink of a meltdown, managing to choke out a few words: "Safe travels, don’t need to see you out!"

Su Ran smiled slightly: "I’ll miss you—"

What he received in response was the sound of the door slamming shut. He cocked his head, his lips curving into a smile that said he was determined to win.

Su Wanxia was forced to stay at Mu Yingchen’s villa for three days, and it seemed as if he didn’t need to go to the office at all, staying in the villa the whole time with her and Shanshan. Nevertheless, he was always busy in the study every day, and she could tell without lifting a toe what he was up to in there. He wouldn’t go to the office, insisting on working from the study—it was absurd! Did he think she was going to run off or something?
