He received a call from his grandmother.
His grandmother told him on the phone that Xiao Tian had lost weight, and it was his failure as an elder brother.
She blamed him for staying at the Translation Bureau and letting his sister suffer.
Su Shouwen truly felt wronged. Although his sister also worked at the Translation Bureau, he hadn't even seen her during this period.
However, Su Shouwen dared not say this to his grandmother, lest she get even angrier.
In the end, the old lady repeatedly emphasized that he, as the elder brother, must take good care of his sister, or she would skin him alive.
Not long after hanging up, seeing that it was almost lunchtime, Su Shouwen eagerly went to find Su Xiao Tian.
He felt he couldn't do much else in terms of care, but he could ensure his sister had meals.
The food at the Translation Bureau was quite good. Although it couldn't compare to his grandmother's cooking, it tasted much better than outside restaurants.
"I haven't had a meal with Big Brother for a while!"
Su Xiao Tian was also very happy to see Su Shouwen. Come to think of it, she had been at the Translation Bureau for some time, and they hadn't even had a meal together.
Her face was filled with a sweet smile, and her every move revealed an incredibly genuine and innocent charm.
The others were somewhat surprised to see Su Xiao Tian like this.
They had never seen this side of Su Xiao Tian before.
They even unconsciously felt a sense of her being just a child.
"From today onwards, as long as Big Brother is here, I will accompany you for meals during your time at the Translation Bureau."
Su Shouwen reached out and ruffled Su Xiao Tian's hair. His sister had indeed lost weight. His grandmother was right; she didn't take care of herself.
"Big Brother, my hair is all messy."
Su Xiao Tian said this with a soft, pampered tone, then trotted over to the desk, took out her lunchbox from the drawer, and urged Su Shouwen to go eat.
"Big Brother, let's go quickly, I'm starving!"
"Didn't Grandma give you breakfast this morning?" Su Shouwen asked curiously.
Su Xiao Tian replied, "I ate, but I used up the energy too quickly, and I'm hungry again! Speaking of which, the food at the Translation Bureau is quite good!"
"Little glutton..." Su Shouwen couldn't help but say dotingly upon hearing Su Xiao Tian's words.
The siblings walked and talked in low voices, gradually moving away, their appearance making people feel envious.
They couldn't help but sigh, remarking on how close the siblings were.
Tang Ping and the others watched Su Shouwen and Su Xiao Tian leave, not even having a chance to greet Su Shouwen.
The reason Su Shouwen, who was usually gentle and refined, didn't proactively greet the others in Su Xiao Tian's office was that he knew they had caused countless troubles before.
Su Shouwen truly couldn't bring himself to like those who had bullied his sister.
Therefore, he simply didn't greet them at all.
"Why didn't we suggest it earlier, asking Su Xiao Tian to go eat together?" Tang Ping said with some annoyance.
She had actually realized her mistake and wanted to apologize.
But her damned pride prevented her from doing so.
Although she had some flaws in her personality, being arrogant and looking down on others, she was also responsible.
Since she had confirmed her guess was wrong, she could also recognize her narrow-mindedness and knew an apology was necessary.
"If you're going to apologize, you should do it sooner. Sometimes, once an opportunity is missed, it's hard to find it again!"
Lu Xuan finished speaking, picked up his lunchbox, and walked away, not intending to pay attention to the remaining two.
Tang Ping fell silent.
Ye Kaiyu grumbled a few words, sounding somewhat resentful.
His voice was so low that even Tang Ping, in the same space, couldn't hear what he said.
Su Xiao Tian and Su Shouwen, having arrived at the unit cafeteria, got their food and sat facing each other at a window seat to eat.
"Xiao Tian, you need to eat more today. You've lost weight these past few days!"
Before starting to eat, Su Shouwen transferred more than half of the sweet and sour pork ribs from his bowl into Su Xiao Tian's lunchbox.
Su Xiao Tian looked at the piled-up lunchbox, unsure whether to laugh or cry.
"Big Brother, I can't eat this much!"
"Don't you like sweet and sour pork ribs the most?"
Liking them the most didn't mean she could eat a lot.
Su Xiao Tian helplessly transferred the sweet and sour pork ribs back into Su Shouwen's lunchbox before starting to eat.
The taste was good.
After a few bites, Su Xiao Tian suddenly remembered what happened that morning and lowered her voice to speak.
"Big Brother, I promised Second Grandma this morning to stay at the Translation Bureau for two years."
Although she regretted it, she had already promised, and Su Xiao Tian had no intention of going back on her word.
"But you didn't want to stay at the Translation Bureau?" Su Shouwen was a little surprised, not even chewing the food in his mouth.
Su Shouwen had always known that Su Xiao Tian didn't want to work at the Translation Bureau.
He felt quite regretful about it.
Since starting work at the Translation Bureau, Su Shouwen felt that his abilities were still very lacking.
Many times, he thought that if Su Xiao Tian were there, it wouldn't be like this.
Su Shouwen had always felt that having one sibling in business, Little Four, was enough. Xiao Tian could join the Translation Bureau and contribute to the country.
With Xiao Tian's current abilities, she could bring greater glory to the country.
In the future, Xiao Tian would also have a brilliant future!
"I didn't want to stay at the Translation Bureau, but Second Grandma said the Translation Bureau is short-staffed, so I stayed!"
Su Xiao Tian sounded genuinely troubled when she said this.
Su Shouwen couldn't help but chuckle.
This little girl was just like that; she was most soft-hearted towards people she was familiar with and liked.
Second Grandma had clearly exploited this weakness of the girl.
He guessed that the young girl must be regretting it now!
"Xiao Tian, staying at the Translation Bureau allows you to make many contributions to the country," Su Shouwen said.
Su Xiao Tian calmly shook her head, "Big Brother, the Translation Bureau is fine with just you."
Big Brother had a steady personality, and in fact, Su Xiao Tian had always felt that Big Brother was more suited to working at the Translation Bureau than she was.
She was actually very lazy by nature and not very suitable for a serious place like the Translation Bureau.
Seeing Su Xiao Tian's firm stance, Su Shouwen didn't say anything more.
Since she was staying for two years, he would try to persuade her slowly later.
Perhaps, in these two years, Xiao Tian might figure it out herself and willingly stay.
"Big Brother, you have to work hard!"
Big Brother was likely the only one in the family who would enter politics. The future direction of the Su family would depend on Big Brother's abilities.
Although their family seemed to be developing very well now, Su Xiao Tian knew that in China, there had to be someone in politics for them to truly ascend.
Otherwise, even with money, they would still be looked down upon and underestimated.
The reason their family was currently held in high regard was mostly due to their relationship with their second grandfather, and their uncle-in-law was also in a position of authority, with an immeasurable future.
In this regard, Su Xiao Tian was very clear-sighted and understanding.
She just felt that she was not suited for this line of work!
