Chapter 65: Throwing brick to attract jade (Part 5)
Su Qi said while fiddling his fingers with the herbs on the table.
“Qi’er, what you said is right. It’s not that father doesn’t want to be with you all, it’s just father doesn’t know your existence. If I knew your mother was still alive, father will not let you keep wondering outside.”
When Su Qi heard those words, his eyes lit up with joy. He knew that his father was also suffering, right?
“Father, then why you don’t come in here generously? You keep visiting mother’s room in the middle of the night. If mother learns about this, you’ll be more miserable.”
Mu Yunxuan’s face turned red instantly. He was caught by son peeping on the spot.
“Qi’er, you’ve also seen your mother’s attitude. Father is afraid to make your mother angrier, and so I came to you guys secretly.”
The look in Su Zimo’s eyes has always been cold, which made his heart feel in pain.
That damn woman, whether it was ghost marriage and not like the ordinary marriage, she was already his wife. However, she treated him like he was a thief.
“Mmm! Mother’s determination is very firm. Xin’er is her life, she will not let father harm her more!”
Su Qi doesn’t want to state his opinion on whether who is right or wrong. But today, didn’t they just called that woman grandmother?
Those words of their grandmother made them feel uncomfortable. Su Xin just wanted to show respect, but instead, she was embarrassed by her. How could Su Xin feel comfortable?
Mu Yunxuan reached out and took Su Qi into his arms, then looked at him softly.
“Qi’er, the three of you, brothers and sisters are very sensible. Father is very happy to see you deep inside my heart.”
Mu Yunxuan’s heart became soft. He didn’t expect that he would have three children. This was something he had never imagined before. That feeling, when you didn’t think about it, but then you suddenly have three children. He didn’t find it awkward, instead, he was very happy.
Su Qi raised his head. Is this a father’s embrace? It was somewhat different from his mother. His mother’s embrace made him feel warm and reluctant to leave, while his father’s embrace was giving him strength and joy.
“Father, there is a price to be paid for being sensible. To help mother, brother spent almost all his time cultivating and studying. And now that he can stand alone, mother let him go with Uncle He to talk about business.”
Su Qi said with a big smile. His father said they were sensible, which made his heart flutter a bit.
“Is that so? Then in the future, I can leave the Mu Family’s business to him.”
Mu Yunxuan smiled brightly. He now has a successor, right?
Su Qi smiled and said nothing.
Su Qi unknowingly sold his elder brother. Unfortunately, Su Li fought a battle today and had just been promoted by three levels, so he fell asleep early.
“By the way, Qi’er, why are you still up so late? How did you find me?”
Mu Yunxuan finds it very strange. The guards in Mingyue Mountain Villa didn’t find him. How did Su Qi find him?
“What so hard about it? I just happened to run into you!”
Just happened?
Mu Yunxuan was a little dumbfounded. Is there such a coincidence?
In his opinion, it was impossible. It was difficult for others to find him because of his cultivation level.
“I know father that you won’t believe it. It was because of brother’s contractual beast. Little Racoon Dog told me, his nose is very good. He will know a stranger comes in by smell. He always guards outside brother’s door. Last time, when you came, brother also knew about it, he just pretended to be innocent. Father, don’t be fooled by brother’s usual appearance, in fact, he is lonely. He cares too much about Mingyue Mountain Villa that it has become a burden in his heart. He put everything on his shoulders. Only in mother’s arms, he acts like a 5-year-old kid.”
Mu Yunxuan felt guilty. When he was 5-years-old, he was not as capable as Su Li.
“Right, Qi’er, have you treated Xiner’s illness?”
Su Qi was not restless in his arms but kept distinguishing the herbs on the table.
