Chapter 59: Chapter 59 Jealousy

Go on, just touch it a little, very gently, Yanyi won’t mind, and even if she does, he’ll just say he was shooing a bug away! Qin Jiran mentally prepared himself, stretched out his hand and gently touched Su Yanyi’s head, then quickly withdrew it.

The soft touch made Qin Jiran squint his eyes slightly amidst his nervousness, admiring the fine quality of Yanyi’s hair.

Su Yanyi quickly looked up but only caught a glimpse of his retreating figure and Qin Jiran’s somewhat innocent appearance. Before she could ask anything, Qin Jiran explained, "Your hair was a bit messy."

Su Yanyi paused for a moment, then continued to eat voraciously, while Qin Jiran quietly heaved a sigh of relief.

Owing to the spiciness of the noodles, Su Yanyi occasionally stuck out her tiny tongue, an image Qin Jiran watched closely, feeling an inexplicable dryness in his mouth. He lost all interest in the noodles in his bowl, his entire focus on Su Yanyi, which made her somewhat uncomfortable. She looked up again and gave Qin Jiran an inquisitive glance as if to ask what he was looking at. Only then did Jiran lower his head and began to eat quickly.

Su Yanyi finished first, and as she looked up at the man who was almost done as well, perhaps due to the spiciness, a thin layer of sweat had formed on his forehead, exuding an indescribable sexiness that made Su Yanyi’s eyes light up as she watched him with composure.

This time, it was Qin Jiran who felt uncomfortable being watched, but fortunately, he persisted until he finished the last bit of noodles, then raised his head and coughed lightly, breaking Su Yanyi’s overly intense gaze.

"I’ve discussed the cooperation plan with Big Brother Su, do you want to check it out?"

"No need, just discuss it among yourselves." Although Su Yanyi also had shares in Su Enterprises, she did not participate in any of its management. As for the cooperation between Su’s and Qin Jiran, as long as both parties had come to an agreement, she wouldn’t have any objections.

Qin Jiran nodded, not taking the topic back to work, instead, he said, "Big Brother Su said we should go home and visit when we have time, cough, Grandpa and our parents would be happy."

Qin Jiran’s words carried a hint of nervousness and anticipation—he had never called Mother Su and Father Su that way in private before and wondered if Yanyi would be unhappy hearing this.

"Okay, we’ll go back when we have time." Su Yanyi had no objections. She seldom thought to visit home herself, as the Su family members were quite independent, but if Qin Jiran wanted to visit the elders, she wouldn’t ignore his wishes. Besides, Grandpa and the parents did indeed prefer them visiting together.

It must be mentioned that the three elders of the Su family, along with Big Brother Su, seemed quite satisfied with Qin Jiran. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have handed her over to Qin Jiran’s care in the previous life despite knowing that they were divorced—this made Su Yanyi acknowledge that the elders’ judgment was pretty good. Of course, her own judgment wasn’t bad either, given that she was the one who had chosen Qin Jiran at the start!

After dinner, Qin Jiran started looking for the Little Golden Turtle. Su Yanyi had planned to go to the study to review some documents but found Qin Jiran’s search for the Little Golden Turtle amusing, so she followed him, watching without helping, with a look of entertainment in her eyes that made Qin Jiran feel quite speechless.

After more than ten minutes of searching, they finally found the Little Golden Turtle in Qin Jiran’s study. It wasn’t clear how the tiny creature got in, but it was lounging comfortably on the large sofa. When Qin Jiran picked it up, it blinked its pale golden eyes at him and waved its short limbs in the air, perfectly embodying the phrase "clumsily cute."

"This little thing is still as stupid as ever," Su Yanyi said disdainfully at the sight.

Qin Jiran couldn’t help but smile as he thought of the scene when Su Yanyi showed up in a turtle costume to find him not long ago. Although he dared not use the word "stupid," the term "cute" definitely applied.

"Indeed, very cute," Qin Jiran said, his words clearly carrying a double meaning. But he dared not let Su Yanyi know that he was comparing her to a little turtle, otherwise Yanyi would act proud and aloof again. Qin Jiran was becoming more and more familiar with Su Yanyi’s temperament.

"Hmph, it’s stupid-cute." The word "stupid" had to come first, as Su Yanyi was evidently unhappy with Qin Jiran’s praise for Little Golden Turtle. It was just a small turtle, but Qin Jiran treasured it like a gem, seeking it out morning and night, which made her feel extremely uncomfortable!

Su Yanyi would never admit to being jealous; she just didn’t like seeing this silly little turtle being so pampered. Qin Jiran’s attention should be all on her!

Little Golden Turtle, unaware that it was the object of its owner’s envy and jealousy, blinked its innocent eyes and continued its efforts to be adorable.

"Alright, it’s stupid-cute." Qin Jiran surrendered unconditionally, and the stupid-cute Little Golden Turtle felt that its male owner was somewhat unreliable!

"Hmph!" The stupid-cute Little Golden Turtle expressed once again that its female owner was indeed rather arrogant.

The next day, before dawn, Su Yanyi was woken up by a phone call. It was a call from Mother Su personally, and its content took Su Yanyi by surprise.

"Yanyi, I’ve received news that Jiran is the illegitimate child of the Qin family’s second son, Qin Zhenyi. Did you know?" Mother Su’s tone was upset, obviously still angry.

Upon hearing this, Su Yanyi immediately became alert, her mind racing as she tried to recall if she had heard anything similar in her past life. She could only remember having seen members of the Qin family once or twice through a haze, but couldn’t recall the specifics.

Thinking of this, Su Yanyi’s expression became very grim. She didn’t consider the revelation of such news at this time to be anything positive.

"Who found out?" Su Yanyi asked coldly. She didn’t question the accuracy of the news; since her mother was telling her, it was undoubtedly true.

"We didn’t find it out; I’ve received information. The headlines of those two media outlets controlled by the Wang Family revolve around this matter today. The Wang Family is obviously behind it, but it’s unknown whether the Qin family is involved. Should we block this news or not?" Mother Su was leaving the decision to Su Yanyi.

Although those two media outlets were controlled by the Wang Family, there were still other shareholders. If Mother Su tried her best, and with the Su family’s connections, temporarily blocking such news wouldn’t be difficult.

After thinking for a moment, Su Yanyi said, "Blocking it temporarily won’t stop it forever. Mother, have Dragon Media prepare as well. I’ll talk to Jiran about this, and if he doesn’t object, we’ll strive to break the news ourselves before they do. We must ensure that public opinion is on our side!"
