She was surrounded by people who were no less good-looking than those celebrities. And her partner was one of them. He was already a feast for her eyes, so why would she still fawn over others?
Su Yan knew that she was joking, too. He raised his eyebrows and asked in amusement, “You only have a few friends. Who do you want to brag to? Who would be jealous?”
Su Yue stuck her tongue out at him, and her gaze swept over the office. She changed the topic. “It’s been long.”
She walked to the sofa and sat down lazily.
Seeing the documents on the coffee table and his desk, her eyes were filled with heartache. “Brother, have you been very busy lately?”
Su Yan nodded. “The product is launching next month, so I’ve been busier.”
He said as he poured her a glass of water. He placed it on the table in front of her and asked, “Is anything the matter?”
“Urm…” Su Yue pressed her lips and looked around. She didn’t meet his gaze.
Evidently, she had something to say.
Su Yan quietly sat down beside her and waited for her to speak.
Su Yue bit her lip and hesitated before speaking. “I’m going to Country Y with Ming Ansheng next month. I wanted to ask you along.”
Su Yan smiled. “I already went there during Qingming[1].”
Then he affectionately rubbed her head, his smile filled with tenderness.
He was extremely comforted and glad.
Their Yueyue had finally grown up. Her heart had become bigger and she had become more forgiving.
Su Yue was shocked at his reply. She thought of something and became awkward. She was too embarrassed to meet his gaze. “R-really?”
How did Brother know what she was going to do in Country Y?
Aish. She once told him that the person she hated most in this world was her mother.
The person who was once her everything, but whom she eventually didn’t even want to see anymore.
She used to hate her to the core.
But through Bai Jing’s interaction with her mother Zhang Lihong, as well as the love that Jiao Chen and Ming Ansheng showered her with, along with the care and concern from her third sister-in-law and the rest, she learned to let go.
She even felt fortunate that she was born into this world.
So her hatred towards her mother gradually faded away.
No matter what her initial motive was when she gave birth to her, she had given her life—that was the truth.
When she passed, Su Yue didn’t even visit her. She didn’t regret it, neither did she feel sad. She purely just wanted to visit her.
She wanted to take a look at the photograph and name on the gravestone.
“Mm.” Su Yan nodded gently. He smiled and said to her, “You guys go ahead. Country Y is great for a vacation at this time as well. You two can go have fun. You don’t have to bring Xiaojiao along.”
Then he looked at Xiaojiao. She was sitting in his office chair, biting the large apple that he had given her. She was engrossed in a cartoon.
His gaze was filled with affection and tenderness.
“Brother, you want to take care of her for me?” Su Yue casually asked.
She wasn’t planning on bringing Xiaojiao along. The little lass had just returned from Country M and needed to adapt to the lifestyle in the capital city. So it was best not to bring her far away for the time being.
Furthermore, the little lass got along well with her grandmother.
