Chapter 582: 545 Divine Assist for Tang Su (1 Update)

"An’an, do you really not mind me running away with your brother?" Zhao Xinlan still felt the need to voice the concern that had been weighing on her heart.

Unable to shake off Su Yangming, she had no choice but to drag things out, but she didn’t have the guts to make it public either. Fortunately, Su Yangming said he would give her some time to adjust.

But no matter the approach, whether open and honest or sneaky and hidden, he was willing to cooperate—even if that meant she could never get rid of him.

Zhao Xinlan truly had no idea what to do with this guy.

Little did she know that after they had been together, this guy had become simply....

Unsure of what to say about him.

"How can that be considered kidnapping? If you like him, then it’s mutual, and I couldn’t be happier for you both. If you don’t like him, then his pitiful unrequited love might never end, and I can only feel sorry for my brother."

"And then resent you for being heartless."

"Resent me? How come..." Zhao Xinlan felt unhappy—how could this be her fault?

Looking back, she realized how oblivious she had been. Su Yangming had liked her for so many years, and she had been completely clueless.

She still remembered when Ruowan had talked to her about Yangming’s refusal to marry, confidently suggesting that perhaps Yangming wasn’t interested in women.

In their country, same-sex marriage wasn’t recognized to the extent that a man could marry another man.

It was possible abroad, though, and since Yangming had spent some time overseas, maybe he had even gotten married there.

That’s what she had thought of Yangming back then, not realizing he had been secretly in love with her all along.

After she started dating Jiang Tao, her confidence as a woman was so crushed by that old man. Now, she felt lively and invigorated again.

The Jiang Family had slunk away from Hua City, and with Jiang Tao sentenced—not to a local prison, but far away—the air in Hua City seemed fresher somehow.

"Shouldn’t I resent you? Just look at yourself, blind to what’s in front of you, ruining so many people’s happiness," Ruowan would only be unreasonable with those closest to her.

In front of others, she was always the most reasonable Doctor Su, Mrs. Tang, and the mother of someone or another.

"Alright, alright, if you don’t object, once Tang Bao and Lu Han’s wedding is over, I’ll start discussing marriage with Yangming. First off, I don’t want any dowry from the Su family. I also won’t claim any of Yangming’s assets pre-marriage," she said.

"Why wouldn’t you? It’s his money; if not for you, who does he spend it on?" Ruowan interrupted before Zhao Xinlan could finish with her presumptions.

Goodness, if this woman dared to tell her brother not to give her his pre-marriage assets, being so exacting with him, she’d surely be asking for trouble.

When her brother decided to be a MAN, he really was a MAN.

If Xinlan wasn’t afraid, she could go ahead and have that talk with her brother.

"That’s not what I meant. It’s just that your brother is so young and strong, and here he is with a woman so much older than him. There’s no guarantee she can give the Su family an heir, and on top of that, she wants to spend all his money on herself. It just doesn’t seem fair to him," she explained.

Zhao Xinlan was single-mindedly considering what was best for Yangming. After all, it was bad enough he was marrying an older woman; she didn’t want him to suffer any more losses.

"I think you’ve been brainwashed by the Jiang family. Is my brother marrying a wife or a baby-making machine? If he was so desperate for a son, why would he stubbornly insist on having you and no one else?"

"And what’s all this talk about continuing the family line? Does the Su family need an heir to a throne or have a fortune worth hundreds of billions? Isn’t Su Yu enough to carry on the line? Do they really need the child from your womb?"

Ruowan was furious.

She couldn’t understand what was going through Zhao Xinlan’s head.

Continuing the family line?

Hearing Ruowan explode like this, Zhao Xinlan suddenly felt all the pressure inside her vanish.

Smiling even after being scolded, Zhao Xinlan rushed over, hugged Su Ruowan, and smothered her face with kisses, "An’an, my good An’an, I love you."

"Eh." Su Ruowan pushed her away, "You should save those words for my brother, your saying that gives me the goosebumps."

Zhao Xinlan pouted.

"Let’s go out, our grandmothers have been staying in the room the whole time, and the children might think we don’t like them if they see us."

"Yeah, let’s go."

**

The soundproofing of the small house wasn’t good, and the volume of Su Ruowan’s voice when she blew up a moment ago was very loud, even though Tongtong couldn’t make out what they were saying, the volume made Tongtong worried.

It was Tang Su who sat down next to him, comforting him, telling him not to be afraid.

Tang Su heard some of it, but, she hadn’t connected it with her uncle yet.

Anyway, it had to do with their Su Family, and they mentioned Su Yu along with incense and the like.

Lu Han came back after sorting out things for Tongtong.

Lu Han conscientiously went to the kitchen to help Tang Shengyi cook, and Tang Su occasionally popped in to have a look, then sneakily brought out some tasty treats for Tongtong.

"Thank you, Mom." Tongtong began to call Tang Su Mom, and could now say it out loud.

Tang Su accepted it with pleasure, Lu Han’s son was also her son.

"You’re welcome."

Since Tongtong came to their side, Lu Han had been stuffing his ears with cotton soaked in disinfectant every day, and the pus in his deaf ears was getting less and less.

It wasn’t long after Su Ruowan and Zhao Xinlan came out to play with Tongtong that Su Yangming arrived at his sister and brother-in-law’s house before mealtime.

Knowing that Tang Su had adopted a son, he even bought a toy, a large remote-controlled airplane.

Tongtong had never played with one before and was exceptionally happy.

"Thank you, little uncle." Tongtong said to Su Yangming.

"You’re welcome, wait a bit, and ask your parents to take you out to play with it."

"Okay."

Tongtong received a lot of love; they were all kind people. When he grew up and became successful, he wanted to be good to them, including his grandparents back home. He wanted them all to share in his fortunes.

Once he was healthy, he would definitely study hard and strive to be a person useful to society and his family.

"Has the filming finished? You keep running over here every three days; anyone would think our sibling bond is strong," Su Ruowan sarcastically said at the dinner table.

Su Yangming was taken aback, "No, sister, are you saying our bond isn’t strong? I just missed you and brother-in-law and wanted to check on you, is that not okay?"

"Uh, that comment scared me a bit," Tang Shengyi nearly choked on a chicken bone.

Su Yangming gave him a grievous look.

Su Ruowan harrumphed, "See? Your brother-in-law is an honest man; he doesn’t buy your lies."

Su Yangming turned his head to look at Zhao Xinlan, who had her head buried low, and then back to his sister Su Ruowan, when he had a realization, "Sister, you know? How did you find out?"

Su Ruowan put down her chopsticks, just about to take on the sisterly attitude and properly lecture Su Yangming, when Tang Su, the god-assisted attacker, interrupted, "Hm? Know what? Empress Mother, godmother, uncle, what kind of riddle are you three playing?"
