Chapter 254: 223 wants to be in a relationship (1 update)_1

Tang Su eventually messaged Lu Han about her encounter with Ye Sichen.

For some reason, the fact that Ye Sichen had also come to Beijing made Tang Su’s eyelids twitch incessantly, especially when the guy had silently approached her by the washbasin. Tang Su felt that he definitely harbored some ill intentions.

Indeed, she had accepted their breakup with pleasurable ease, but he seemed rather unwilling to let go.

To say his unwillingness was due to his love for her, Tang Su thought that might not necessarily be the case.

If he really loved her, they had been together for nearly two years, and yet he had never taken the initiative to propose and even secretly cared for his ex-girlfriend’s beloved dog behind her back.

Now that she was insisting on breaking up, it was probably just the common male pride.

They only allow themselves to dump others, not to be dumped.

If that was the case, she certainly wouldn’t indulge him.

When Tang Su sent the message, she didn’t expect Lu Han to reply instantly, considering that he had more friends and family on his side and surely needed to spend time with them.

However, as soon as she sent the message, Lu Han replied immediately as if he had been waiting for her text all along.

"Mm, I know. Have you finished dining? Where did you eat?"

"Xinghua Hall."

"How was the taste?"

"Mm, delicious."

"Then next time, come with me to eat there again and bring big brother."

"Sure, and also Uncle, Uncle learned about you from Ye Sichen. I couldn’t lie to him, so I told him."

"Your Uncle needed to hear about me from Ye Sichen?" Lu Han frowned slightly, guessing that Ye Sichen wouldn’t have said anything good about him.

"He’s got a sharp tongue." Tang Su was straightforward, completely unaware of the slight discomfort in Lu Han’s heart, and just vented to him.

"Mm, he really is, can we do voice chat?" Lu Han asked, having not seen her for most of the day, he missed her voice.

"No, I haven’t returned to my room yet, still on the road."

"Mm, then, when you get back to your room, let’s video call. I miss you."

"...Mm."

Tang Su’s cheeks were flushed and burning hot.

In fact, she missed Lu Han too, or else she wouldn’t have immediately hidden in the back corner of the car as she got in, stealthily messaging Lu Han.

Tang Feng sat next to Tang Su, covering for her as she messaged, so that the elders in front wouldn’t see and remark that they were part of the "heads-down" generation.

Always glued to their phones.

Tang Feng, with sharp eyes, saw the last three words from Lu Han.

Though cold text inherently lacks emotion, from those three words that Lu Han sent to his sister, Tang Feng felt Lu Han’s deep affection and tender love for Tang Su.

That kid seemed to really love his sister.

Turning his head to look out of the car window, Tang Feng’s mind suddenly burst with the absurd idea of wanting to fall in love.

As this thought so abruptly sprang up, Tang Feng was stunned; the first thing he did as he came to his senses was to close his eyes and silently chant "Amitabha" three times.

Having turned off her phone, Tang Su turned around to hear her big brother chanting beside her.

"Big brother, what are you chanting? Don’t tell me you’re planning to become a monk? Who do you want to drive crazy?" Tang Su didn’t dare to say such words out loud and could only lean close to Tang Feng’s ear to whisper them.

If her elder brother really considered becoming a monk, the whole family would be anxious, including herself. She had saved up many gold beans, just waiting for the day her brother would bring his future wife to their home so she could present them to her future sister-in-law as a meeting gift.

Her brother was so kind to her, but he was also the kind of person whose material desires were very low. Tang Su wanted to repay him but couldn’t find a way.

So, she turned her gratitude towards her brother into another form, which was to buy gold beans and save them in a piggy bank. When her brother made up his mind to bring his future wife to meet the family, she would give them to her sister-in-law as a surprise.

"Why are you in a hurry? Who said anything about becoming a monk?" Tang Feng glared at her.

He was just thinking about considering romance after turning thirty years old, never expecting that the thought would come three years ahead of schedule—too unbelievable.

"That’s a relief, you scared me to death. I thought I might never get to give the gift I saved for my future sister-in-law in this lifetime." Tang Su patted her chest, innocently letting slip her inner thoughts without a second thought.

"Huh? What gift have you saved? How come I don’t know about it?"

"Why should I tell you? It’s a little secret between us girls."

"Haha, your future sister-in-law is still nowhere in sight. How about showing it to your big brother first?" Tang Feng’s curiosity successfully piqued his sister’s interest.

"No way, it’s something girls like, you guys wouldn’t appreciate it." Tang Su insisted on not revealing the gift.

"Tsk—" Tang Feng pretended to be angry and no longer interested.

Tang Su didn’t bother to coax him either.

Half an hour later, the Shen Family arrived.

Shen Yi hurriedly got out of the car, and she almost tripped and fell as she entered the door.

Everyone thought she was in a rush to use the bathroom, not knowing she was eager to change into her battle dress and head out for a perfect encounter with her sweetheart.

Seeing Shen Yi running so fast, completely lacking the poise and manner expected of a daughter from the Shen Family, the elder Mrs. Shen simply closed her eyes, out of sight, out of mind.

Some people, no matter how many kind words you say to them, just won’t listen; it’s useless.

And there are others who, without needing an elder to say anything, learn by example and pick up everything they do.

That’s why even a group of people with the same starting line can end up at very different distances in the end—it still depends on their own abilities.

Even if the stone of foundation is set high at first, if there’s no strength, eventually, they’ll be surpassed by those who come later.

Due to the time difference, and considering Madam Su was somewhat fatigued after the long-haul flight, Su Wanyi arranged for her to wash up and sleep.

Madam Su was indeed tired. As she yawned and chatted with Mrs. Shen, she mentioned her biggest regret abroad was not being able to go to the gardens to listen to operas, as everything there was about large-scale musicals, which she couldn’t understand.

Mrs. Shen assured her not to worry, saying that she had already arranged a visit to the opera house and they could go together once she had rested enough the next day.

Madam Su was completely satisfied. Seeing her happiness, Su Wanyi reminded Mrs. Shen to sleep early before accompanying her back to her room.

Tang Su’s family of four was pulled upstairs to the small living room to chat by Su Yangming, who, unlike Madam Su, hadn’t quite adjusted to the time difference yet.

Su Ruoan and Tang Shengyi had no issue entertaining their younger brother.

As for chatting with their small uncle, Tang Su and Tang Feng also had no objections.

The Su Family’s second and fourth siblings went straight back to their own homes. Over the last few days, they had all taken time off, so they would meet again at the Shen Family’s place tomorrow.

At this moment, Shen Yi came down from upstairs. As Shen Yi’s third aunt, Su Ruoan showed concern, "Shen Yi, going out so late?"

"Yes, third aunt, I’ll be back soon."

"Tang Su, do you want to come with?" After thinking for a bit, Shen Yi took the initiative to invite Tang Su.

Tang Su checked the time and shook her head, "No thanks, sis, it’s too cold outside. Make it a quick trip."

"Okay, I’m off."
