Chapter 278: 247 A Needle, Seeing Blood (1 more update)_1

Sun Qing soothed Old Master Sun before saying with bright, earnest eyes, "Grandpa, if this time, your granddaughter truly secures Doctor Bai, I will definitely marry him."

"Then, do you want Grandpa to shamelessly offer his help?" Sun Guoxing asked.

He had realized by now that his girl didn’t take things seriously before because compared to the men she was interested in, none posed a high level of difficulty.

It seemed that Doctor Bai had absolutely no interest in his little girl.

That’s just how his girl was, always has been; she never plays any game that doesn’t pose a challenge.

Other kids her age played games that weren’t too difficult, but Sun Qing always liked to challenge the more difficult ones. The ones she could win in one go, she rarely played a second time.

But men are not the same as games, does his girl understand that?

Love requires mutual affection, and unrequited love is destined to result in hardships.

Yet, Sun Qing was so serious this time that Sun Guoxing really couldn’t bear to discourage her.

"No need," Sun Qing shook her head, firmly refusing to let Sun Guoxing get involved.

"Alright, alright. Then Grandpa will wait for your good news," Sun Guoxing verbally agreed with Sun Qing.

Sun Guoxing’s gaze towards Bai Dingxian wavered for a moment, but in the end, he turned his attention to Tang Su.

He could only rest easy handing his girl over to Tang Su.

Even if Sun Qing had a man she liked, he couldn’t just hand her over to him.

"Then I’ll head over first, otherwise, if someone visits our home and we, as hosts, only care about chatting ourselves, it wouldn’t be hospitable."

"Hmm, go ahead."

Meanwhile, Lu Han and Tang Su were seriously preparing the lunchtime barbeque. The chicken wings were marinated and ready to be skewered. The ones sold outside usually have two per skewer, but for their own meal, Tang Su skewered four.

Following her lead, Lu Han also skewered four each.

Tang Su kept her head down, busy with the task at hand, but inside she felt somewhat flustered. Before meeting Lu Han, she had mentally prepared herself on what to ask him when they met.

But when she actually saw Lu Han, all the questions she planned seemed impossible to voice.

Thankfully, there was work to be done, because otherwise, it would have been extremely awkward just standing there without anything to do, staring at each other.

In Lu Han’s eyes, Tang Su always stood out, and he noticed any slight abnormal reaction from her.

So, since Tang Su wasn’t willing to start the conversation, Lu Han decided to take the initiative.

"Don’t you have something you want to ask me? Or did my big brother not say anything to you when he went back yesterday?" Lu Han didn’t believe that Tang Feng could keep a secret from Tang Su.

Besides, he hadn’t asked Tang Feng to keep a secret.

"No, he did tell me," she replied.

"Then why aren’t you asking anything?" Lu Han looked at her.

After neatly arranging the skewered chicken wings on the plate, Tang Su finally looked up at Lu Han and noticed some marinate from the chicken wings on the back of his hand.

She took a wet wipe to clean it for him, "I don’t know what I should ask."

In front of Lu Han, Tang Su always said what was on her mind, never hiding anything.

"If you don’t know what to ask, then just ask whatever comes to mind," Lu Han said, gently persuading her as he took her hand.

About this matter, it wasn’t that he was unwilling to share more proactively, but he wanted to quickly understand Tang Su’s thoughts. It was better for her to ask and him to answer.

"Lu Han, I indeed have a question for you, do you know Shen Yi?" Tang Su really wasn’t so concerned about whose son Lu Han was.

According to Shen Yi, it seemed like Lu Han’s father was rather formidable.

If he was indeed formidable, then it would be normal for her, just an ordinary person, not to be looked up to by his parents.

Therefore, what Shen Yi had said might not have been just scaremongering; it was probably all true.

If her future with Lu Han wasn’t allowed by Lu Han’s parents, then she...

Actually, she didn’t know what she should do if such a situation truly happened to her.

Should she resist desperately?

Or resign herself to her fate?

"Shen Yi, your cousin?" Lu Han, having privately learned about the Su family, didn’t plan to hide it from Tang Su.

"You two really know each other?" Tang Su was extremely surprised.

"Not know each other, it’s just that these past two days, I’ve sorted out the relationships on your grandmother’s side, Tang Su, I want to marry you, and I think, you aren’t just looking to have a fling with me, right?"

"Of course not, but..."

Tang Su wanted to say that of course, she wasn’t just looking to have a fling with him, but if his family background was truly much better than hers, she feared his parents would think she was overreaching.

Between two people, if the relationship was too unequal, she couldn’t say she wasn’t worried at all; that would be lying.

"But what?" Lu Han looked at her, guessing she had something on her mind, and encouraged her to speak up.

The other three people also had good timing, knowing that meeting up now wasn’t as convenient as in Hua City, so nobody came over to disturb them.

Giving them plenty of time to talk.

This favor from Sun Qing, he was willing to owe. If there was a chance in the future, he would certainly repay Sun Qing for this kindness.

"But if your family is indeed much better off than mine, then we are not a match in terms of social status, I might not be worthy of you." Tang Su said softly with her head lowered.

Lu Han had an excellent hearing; even though Tang Su’s words were nearly whispered at the end, he still heard them.

"The ’better conditions’ you speak of, does it mean my parents earn more money than yours?"

Lu Han tightly grasped her hand, and pointed it out directly.

"Conditions, in the eyes of the world, are basically related to money, Lu Han, we are all inevitably materialistic in this way, aren’t we?" Tang Su said ruefully.

There were some things that, even if she didn’t speak of them now, would eventually arise, and people around them would start gossiping.

Rather than wait until then, hearing others talk about them before deciding to face the issue, it was better to bring it up proactively now and see how it could be avoided.

"Yes, we’re all worldly. So today, let’s talk about something worldly. I really didn’t expect that what big brother brought back for you was such thoughts."

Naturally, Lu Han didn’t know that all of Tang Su’s wild thoughts were not what Tang Feng had conveyed. Tang Feng had spread positive energy, talking about the Lu family’s heritage, how Lu Han’s grandfather and father were both war heroes, as well as the heroic deeds of the Lu family.

What truly disheartened Tang Su was actually what Shen Yi and others had conveyed.

When people talk about lofty principles, they are very carefree, imagining themselves handling issues with ease. However, in reality, when trouble and difficulties actually arise, everyone has their own hesitations and doubts.

Tang Su was no different.

"Tang Su, my parents might know how to make money, but they’re just lucky and have some business acumen. This doesn’t mean that just because our family has a bit more money than yours, we are so much higher than your family," Lu Han said.

"In others’ eyes, I am that despised illegitimate child, and my mother isn’t much more noble than I am. Tang Su, without considering money, our family really isn’t comparable to yours at all, did you know that?"
