Chapter 302: Chapter 302 Mommy Belongs to Me
Everyone was utterly shocked!
Su He was somewhat surprised that Lin Xueyin would actually hit a child.
None of the people present had reacted yet.
Suddenly, a loud cry shot up to the skies!
Even Su Yuxuan, who was originally crying, stopped.
After hitting, Lin Xueyin immediately regretted it.
Visibly panicking, she became flustered.
“Xiao Jun, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, mommy didn’t mean it.”
She tried to comfort him, but he dodged her.
“Get away from me, you’re not my mom!”
“I’m going to tell my dad you hit me!”
At this time, someone heard the crying and came over.
“Xiao Jun, what’s wrong?” A woman’s voice sounded.
Lin Xueyin froze completely.
“Grandma.”
The boy ran to the woman and cried out, “Grandma, this woman just hit me.”
He pointed at Lin Xueyin’s back as he spoke.
Luo Meijuan instantly changed her expression as soon as she heard her grandson’s words.
“Lin Xueyin! Who gave you the audacity to hit my Xiao Jun!”
Luo Meijuan stepped forward, reached out and grabbed Lin Xueyin’s hair, pulling it back hard.
“Ah!”
Lin Xueyin screamed in pain.
Immediately after, Luo Meijuan twisted her around and raised her hand to slap her.
Before Lin Xueyin could react, she was slapped again.
It was two continuous hits.
“You wretched woman! Ungrateful wretch, the Luo Family already granted you the greatest favor by letting you through our door, yet you dare to hit my grandson, you definitely deserve a beating!”
“I’ll make sure you pay for this wretched woman!”
Luo Meijuan was furious, shouting while raising her hand to hit Lin Xueyin’s face again.
The workers nearby dared not step forward to intervene.
Lin Xueyin pushed her away directly.
Luo Meijuan did not expect her to fight back.
Lin Xueyin marrying into the Zhao Family was already disapproved by her, since Lin Xueyin’s reputation was thoroughly spoiled in their circle.
Moreover, she even seduced her son, now Zhao Ming is so infatuated, completely in disarray!
Therefore, Luo Meijuan always disliked Lin Xueyin.
When at Zhao’s, as soon as an opportunity arose, she would relentlessly scold and berate her.
“Luo Meijuan, I’ve endured enough from you!” Lin Xueyin could not hold back this time, glaring back fiercely, “I’m telling you, if you touch me again, it won’t be you killing me today, but me killing you!”
Luo Meijuan was taken aback by her fierce demeanor.
Shaking with anger, she raised her finger at her and said, “Lin, so this is your true colors, huh? Fine, just wait to be kicked out of the Zhao Family!”
After speaking, Luo Meijuan took Zhao Haijun and left, “Xiao Jun, let’s go.”
Su He and others stood by watching the whole scene.
Seeing that everyone had left, naturally they also left.
But Lin Xueyin stared at her, eyes filled with resentment, and she hissed through clenched teeth, “Su He, you wretched woman! I curse you to never have peace in this lifetime!”
“…”
“Slap!” A crisp sound!
Su He directly slapped her.
“You…”
“Lin Xueyin, if you don’t court death, you won’t die! Stop blaming everyone else in front of me!”
After saying this, Su He rolled her eyes at her, took Su Baobao by the hand, and left.
People like Lin Xueyin, who blame everything on others, there’s no point in talking to her.
If she hadn’t courted death herself, she wouldn’t have ended up like this.
Sang Luo, holding Su Yuxuan, also left with them.
The surrounding people whispered and pointed, even if Lin Xueyin was furious, she couldn’t chase after them anymore.
Besides, even if she caught up, she wouldn’t be able to win against Su He.
“Why did it take so long?” Jiang You asked when she saw them returning.
Su He briefly mentioned that they had encountered Lin Xueyin.
“Oh, it’s her.” Jiang You said, “I heard she married into the Zhao Family, to be someone else’s stepmother.”
Lin Xueyin, back when she was with the An Family, was famously arrogant in their circle, looking down on everyone, as if her eyes were set high above.
Anyway, Lin Xueyin and Tang Sirou are the same kind of people, the two individuals Jiang You dislikes the most, absolutely unbearable.
Only, unexpectedly, these two have now fallen into such disgrace; one went to jail, and the other reclusively became a stepmother.
“You’re really well-informed,” Jing Xuan casually remarked.
Jiang You: “Of course, my connections are still pretty reliable. Moreover, I’ve heard that Lin Xueyin seduced that man from the Zhao Family, forcing his wife to divorce before she successfully married into their family.”
–
Half a year later.
The research institute decided to establish a new institute in Yue City, z-country.
The investor happened to be DK Group.
Once this research institute is established, DK Group will invest twenty billion into it.
Su He only found out about it afterward.
Previously, Jiang Yan had never revealed this to her; she heard it from Old Mr. Yuan.
Moreover, she had reasons to suspect that Jiang Yan and Old Mr. Yuan had discussed establishing an institute in Yue City.
Otherwise, given Old Mr. Yuan’s temperament, it would be impossible for him to bring the research institute here since the costs are too high.
Originally, the research project already required substantial funding, and almost all of the institute’s money was spent on experimental projects.
So, there was hardly any spare money to establish another institute domestically.
Capitalists willing to invest money always prioritize the time of return; for an experimental project, besides burning through funds, it’s also time-consuming, usually taking at least two years to see any returns.
Yet the capitalists’ investments start at hundreds of millions at once, which many enterprises are unwilling to wait for.
Today, Old Mr. Yuan sought her out.
“Susu, the institute’s system here is already very well established; if Yue City proves successful, I hope you can continue to take charge,” Yuan Guohua said.
Upon hearing this, Su He was not surprised, “I understand, professor.”
Old Mr. Yuan added: “I know that initially asking you to take over here indeed caused some trouble for you and your husband, with all the flying back and forth.”
Su He responded: “Professor, please don’t say that, taking over the institute was also my decision. Besides, we can afford the flight tickets.”
Old Mr. Yuan: “This time, with full support from Jiang Yan’s side, there shouldn’t be much problem. Afterwards, you won’t need to travel back and forth so much, making it less hard on you. As for this side, after a year of your reforms, it’s basically stable; no problems should arise, and with Li serving as vice president, you basically don’t need to worry about this side anymore.”
“Right, I heard that you two are planning on having a second child?”
Suddenly, Su He heard him shift the topic to having children.
“That’s good, while you both are still young, have more children, the more the merrier at home. Who knows, you might even raise a child as brilliant as yourself, which would be great for our field of research.”
Su He: “…”
This past half year, this has been what she has heard the most.
Really, wherever she goes, she hears it.
A week later, Su He set off to return to Yue City.
That night, it was Jiang Yan who came with Su Baobao to pick her up from the airport.
“Mommy, does this mean you won’t be going back this time?”
During the car ride, Su Baobao excitedly clung to Su He and asked.
Su He nodded and said, “Your dad has spent a huge amount, so Mommy could only come back.”
The man sitting next to her had a hint of a smile in his eyes, but it wasn’t obvious.
He was mainly afraid of being scolded.
Su Baobao didn’t care about the huge amount or anything; he was just happy that she wasn’t leaving again and they could meet more than just once a month now.
“Mommy, can I sleep with you tonight, please?” Su Baobao cooed, “Baby has not slept with mommy for a very long time.”
Seeing this, Jiang Yan immediately said, “Xixi, you’re grown up now; you can sleep on your own, so stop clinging to mommy.”
Su Baobao: “I don’t want to! Daddy, you’re not allowed to compete with me for mommy tonight.”
The man turned his head to look at Su He, meaning he wanted her to intervene.
But Su He said, “I can sleep with either of you, you father and son can decide among yourselves.”
She didn’t want to be involved in their father-son rivalry.
At that moment, Su Baobao added, “Dad, you have to sleep alone tonight. Mommy belongs to Baby alone tonight.”
Jiang Yan: “Why does she belong only to you? I am your mommy’s husband, so she belongs to me as well.”
Su Baobao: “Hmph, I don’t care, anyhow Mommy belongs to me.”
“Mommy~”
The little guy turned his head to look at Su He, pouting his lips.
In the front, Jiang Feng and Jiang Qi listened silently as the one big and one small in the backseat competed for affection.
If it were in the past, both of them would have been shocked to their cores.
But now, they were used to it.
Only in front of the Young Madam, the usually aloof and distant Master would become clingy.
Sometimes, he would even get jealous over little things with the Young Master.
This behavior is actually a bit childish, but it doesn’t feel out of place at all when it happens with their Master.
…
Two days later.
Su He bought some children’s items and a gift for Mrs. Jing, then went to the Jing Family Mansion. It was the weekend and Su Baobao was also off school, so she brought him along.
The little guy went straight to the children’s room to find Xiao Jingyan as soon as they arrived.
“Are you planning to stay for good this time?” Jing Xuan asked.
Su He: “Yes.”
Jing Xuan was about to say something when Su He interrupted, “Just don’t bring up having a second child with me.”
Jing Xuan smiled and blinked, “How did you know I was going to mention it?”
“…”
“You two have been living apart for quite some time, indeed it’s not conducive to having a second child.” Jing Xuan said, “Now that you’re back, you can try for a baby every day.”
Su He didn’t want to talk anymore: “…”
Did everyone plot this together?
Seeing her expression, Jing Xuan realized she really wasn’t interested in the topic and dropped it.
“By the way, I went to A University a few days ago and saw An Mi and Mu Qi together.” Jing Xuan asked, “When did they become so close?”
Su He slightly furrowed her brows and then said, “Probably because of her friend’s issue.”
The matter involving Yang Jie was initially entrusted to Wan Muqi, she wasn’t very clear about what happened afterward.
Usually, An Mi wouldn’t come to her unless it was something very important.
Jing Xuan didn’t think much of it; she was just asking casually.
Because she happened to encounter them that day, she originally wanted to go up and greet them, but they were in a hurry and she also had matters to attend to.
Three days later.
Su He happened to have something to do which required her to pass by University A, so she took the opportunity to visit An Mi and An Rui.
“Where’s An Mi?”
Su He only saw An Rui.
An Rui came out from the dormitory after seeing the message Su He sent. He happened to have no classes that day.
An Rui: “I don’t know, she didn’t have classes this morning, she should be in the dormitory.”
An Mi does not interfere in his affairs, and he rarely inquires about An Mi’s matters. The siblings only communicate on important matters and spend the rest of their time doing their own things.
Su He sent a message to An Mi, who indeed did not reply.
Immediately after, she took out her phone and dialed her number.
It rang several times before the call was answered from the other end.
Su He: “An Mi, where are you?”
Just as An Mi saw the message and was about to reply, Su He’s call came through.
“Sister, sorry, I just didn’t see the message you sent.”
Listening to the noisy background over the phone, Su He asked: “Are you not in the dormitory, are you outside?”
An Mi: “Yes, sister, I… have some matters and came out, I’ll be back soon. Sister, is there something you need from me?”
Then, Su He heard a male voice on the other end of the phone: “An Mi, let’s go.”
She was not unfamiliar with that voice.
“Are you with Mr. Wan?” Su He asked.
An Mi did not expect Wan Muqi to suddenly call out to her at that moment, she had no choice but to honestly confess, “Yes, sister.”
Su He did not want to meddle too much, but she still asked: “What are you guys doing?”
An Mi answered: “I have a friend who has some issues and needs a lawyer, but she cannot afford one, so she asked me to inquire. I only know Mr. Wan, so I asked him for help.”
Su He knew that An Mi would not lie to her, so she did not ask further.
An Mi continued: “Sister, don’t worry, I will finish my errand and come back, I won’t miss my afternoon classes.”
In the end, Su He didn’t say much more, she just responded with a “Hmm.”
“Sister, how come An Mi is together with Mu Qi?” An Rui, curious, asked after she hung up the call.
Su He: “An Mi needed him for a task.”
An Rui muttered: “Oh, alright. So the reason Mu Qi did not come to teach our class today is because he went out with An Mi.”
Su He frowned slightly, “Wait, what did you just say? What class?”
An Rui: “Mu Qi is now a teacher at our University A Law School.”
“…”
How come she had never heard that Mr. Wan also worked part-time as a university teacher?
Most importantly, he actually skipped a school class for An Mi’s matter, which is quite… astonishing!
After having lunch with An Rui, Su He dropped him back at the university and then went to DK Group to find Jiang Yan.
Executive office on the top floor.
“What? I had no idea about this.” Jiang Yan expressed confusion after hearing her words.
Su He squinted her eyes, staring at him for a few seconds.
Jiang Yan: “Wife, don’t look at me like that, I really didn’t know about this. I would deceive anyone but not you. Besides, a brother is never as important as a wife.”
After saying that, he embraced her slender waist, lifted her gently, and had her sit on his lap.
“Wan has many professions, actually none of us really know, mainly because we don’t inquire about each other’s matters, as there’s nothing much to ask. But, if you want to know, I can ask for you.”
Su He, seeing his genuine expression, said, “Alright, then you go ask.”
If Wan Muqi didn’t have ulterior motives, she really wouldn’t believe it.
