Chapter 287: 256 videos, invite (2 updates)_1

Facing Tang Su’s thanks, Su Wanyi actually felt undeserving, after all, her sincere advice was not meant as a warning but born of jealousy.

Once a person harbors jealousy, they become exceptionally unattractive.

In the end, Su Wanyi dejectedly linked arms with her elderly mother, took her daughter, and got into the car to leave.

The appearance of Lu Han today, combined with the clearly strained reactions of Su Wanyi and Shen Yi, allowed the Su Family matriarch to detect something amiss.

After getting into the car, the elder lady’s brows did not relax.

Logically, a boyfriend that Tang Su met in Hua City, even if he was a local from Beijing, should not make Su Wanyi and her daughter so anxious to please.

So, could Lu Han’s family really be that impressive, so much so that, Su Wanyi was willing to risk tearing apart the sisterly bond to compete for him for her daughter’s sake?

Actually, she was on Su Wanyi’s side. If Lu Han’s family was indeed impressive, then given Su Yangming and Tang Su’s meek demeanor, they probably wouldn’t be able to "hold" onto someone like him.

It would be better to leave it to Shen Yi.

But now that things had escalated to this point, even if Tang Su had nothing to do with that man anymore, it was no longer Shen Yi’s concern.

With the outcome seemingly inevitable, the Su Family matriarch didn’t want Su Wanyi and Su Ruoan to lose even the semblance of cordiality between sisters.

"Eldest daughter, don’t get involved in this matter anymore. Shen Yi, no matter how it ends with that man and Tang Su, let’s not pay him any more attention, okay? Listen to your grandmother’s advice," the old lady said earnestly to Shen Yi.

"Grandma believes that with our Shen Yi’s talent and charm, it’s easy to find a man who is more outstanding than Lu Han, isn’t it?"

Shen Yi: "..."

Shen Yi wanted to say, a man like Lu Han was the highest caliber of men she had access to, and there wouldn’t be another more charming man than him appearing in her life.

Even if there were, they were beyond her reach.

But she couldn’t speak such truth to her grandmother.

"Don’t worry, Mom. They’ve already declared their territory, not leaving any path for retreat. What more can we mother and daughter say? We’ll wish Tang Su well," Su Wanyi said with an awkward smile.

These words, even if the elder lady hadn’t said them, she would have reminded her daughter anyway.

Shen Yi remained silent, quietly turning her head towards the window.

What Tang Su had done was truly ruthless.

She had to admit, she was curious to see how the journey ahead would unfold for her and Lu Han.

On the way back, Su Ruoan held Tang Su’s hand, "Your aunt’s words were out of concern that led to a mess. It’s nothing, don’t take it to heart."

"Yeah, I won’t take it to heart," Tang Su nodded.

She would just consider it as a few small stones carelessly thrown onto her path of love, which she just needed to remove.

After returning to Su Yangming’s house, the family of four felt incredibly relaxed.

Previously, when they stayed at Su Wanyi’s place, as soon as Tang Shengyi walked through the door and finished the pleasantries, he just wanted to rush to his room. But at Su Yangming’s house, Yangming wasn’t drunk, and since he had just returned from abroad and needed to adjust to the time difference, he couldn’t sleep.

Tang Shengyi, seeing the chess set in the living room, became eager to play. "Little Brother, how about we play a couple of games?"

"Sure, I thought you and my sister would want to go to bed early and get up early. I was initially planning to ask Tang Feng to join me, but since you’re interested, brother-in-law, I’ll gladly play through to the end."

After having the housekeeper brew two pots of tea, Su Yangming sent them off to rest.

Tang Feng was too excited to sleep as well.

The pen carried by the War God hero had become his, making him more excited than winning the lottery.

With his spirits high, the sleepless Tang Feng stayed to watch the game.

Seeing the three men in high spirits, Su Ruoan didn’t have the heart to dampen their enthusiasm. Before heading to her room, she reminded them, "We have an important event tomorrow, try to sleep early tonight."

The most significant part of this trip to Beijing was the family portrait session scheduled for the next day, and Su Ruoan felt they needed to be fresh and alert for it.

"I know, honey. Don’t worry, just two games. After they’re done, all three of us will go to sleep."

"Mm."

Tang Su wished Su Ruoan a good night and then returned to her own room, which Su Yangming had decorated according to her tastes and given to her as a gift.

It was her private room with two sets of keys, one she kept with her and the other for backup, which she also put away herself.

Su Yangming treated Tang Su just like his own daughter.

He didn’t have children of his own, and he always had a good relationship with Su Ruoan. The help Su Ruoan provided him, if measured only in terms of money, might have been the smallest, but it was everything Su Ruoan and Tang Shengyi could offer.

Su Yangming naturally understood that in this lifetime, even among blood brothers and sisters, those willing to offer everything to help you were to be cherished with one’s life once found.

Tang Su’s room also had a private bathroom.

After entering, she turned on the heating. Wearing just a thin knit top and holding a change of clothes, she prepared to take a bath in the constant temperature tub.

Tang Su thought about watching a show while soaking in the bath, which she considered the ultimate indulgence.

Tang Su also made herself a cup of warm milk.

Once everything was ready, just as she settled into the hot water, her phone rang. It was a video call invitation from Lu Han.

Seeing her bare upper body, Tang Su’s face turned red, and she instinctively refused Lu Han’s video call invitation, switching to a voice call instead.

"I wanted to see you, won’t let me?" At this point, Lu Han had arrived home and, thinking of what Tang Su’s family had said, he missed Tang Su very much.

"It’s not that, I’m... inconvenient." Tang Su was too embarrassed to tell Lu Han that she was taking a bath.

"Oh, if it’s inconvenient, never mind then. Is it convenient to talk?"

"Mm," Tang Su murmured softly.

"Taking a bath?" Lu Han asked with a light laugh as he realized what was happening.

Tang Su: "..."

This time, Tang Su’s ears turned red as well. Biting her lip hard, she didn’t make a sound.

Tang Su’s silent stillness gave Lu Han an accurate answer.

Warmth flooded his heart, and a wave of heat suddenly surged in his lower abdomen. Without seeing anything, it felt as though he saw everything.

His reaction was both immediate and fierce.

It almost made him lose control.

"Tonight was the first time I met that cousin of yours. Before that, I had never seen her," Lu Han recalled the question Tang Su had asked him earlier.

"Yeah, I know."

"..."

"That’s because you are so outstanding that many girls in Beijing secretly have a crush on you."

"Whether or not there are many girls in Beijing secretly crushing on me, I do not know, but I do know the girl I’ve secretly loved for so many years has responded to me, and that makes me very content with my life."

Tang Su: "..."

"Tang Su, after we meet the parents, let’s get our marriage certificate, okay?"

"..." Tang Su wanted to say yes, but what came out in the end was, "Let’s discuss it after meeting the parents."

"Okay, I’ll listen to you. Get some rest early, so you can look beautiful for the photoshoot tomorrow."

"Mm."

"Don’t soak for too long."

"Got it."
