Chapter 870: Feeling Like a Fool
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Jin Long was in a state of turmoil. His mind was a whirlwind of thoughts, primarily about Miss Gong Xin. He wondered what she was doing at that mont, and what would happen if she decided to look for him and couldn’t find him. He cursed under his breath, realizing he had been so preoccupied that he hadn’t even left a ssage for her.
Jin Long was so engrossed in these thoughts that he failed to realize that his relationship with Gong Xin was still far from certain.
anwhile, Su Li was busy with his howork, all of which were problems set by his brother. His head was spinning from the effort, and seeing Jin Long lost in his thoughts and chuckling to himself, Su Li found an opportunity to distract himself. “Uncle Jin Long,” he asked, “what unrealistic things are you thinking about?”
Jin Long turned to Su Li, a look of surprise on his face. “What do you an unrealistic? How do you know what I’m thinking about isn’t practical?”
He had been secretly planning to learn from Su Shen, to be sincere and wholehearted in his pursuit of Gong Xin. And yet, this child dared to call his thoughts unrealistic. It was outrageous!
Su Li, unaware of Jin Long’s thoughts, felt confident in his assumption. “My mother said that when a person is constantly daydreaming and laughing to themselves, they are usually obsessed with sothing or soone. And usually, that person is soone they can’t have. Dad, do you think mom is right?”
Su Li wasn’t content with just pricking Jin Long’s heart; he even dragged his father into it. Could Su Shen deny his son and wife?
So, Su Shen looked at Jin Long and naturally agreed, “My wife is always right, Jin Long. Don’t overthink things. Even a child can see things more clearly than you.”
Jin Long was speechless. For the first ti, he felt that Su Shen was being unreasonable. Just because he was happy, he didn’t care about others’ feelings and didn’t even allow them to dream?
At that mont, the door to the ward opened, and Gu Zi walked in, followed by Su Bing. Jin Long imdiately complained, “Sister-in-law, Su Shen is being too much. He’s bullying , a lonely man.”
Gu Zi looked at Jin Long’s pitiful expression. Initially confused, she understood once she heard he was complaining about her husband. Gu Zi imdiately took sides, saying, “He’s a patient, you should be patient with him.”
Su Shen shalessly wrapped his arm around Gu Zi, playing the victim. “Ah Zi, it’s Jin Long who’s bullying . Don’t let him co here anymore. Let him stay at the hotel. He only annoys . It’s better for him to stay at the hotel and take care of the children. It’s a good learning environnt for them.”
Jin Long choked, his heart pounding. The relationship between the two had taken a sudden leap forward, and he felt like a fool, a part-ti babysitter. But rembering Su Shen’s words, he turned to Su Li and Su Bing, laughing, “Your father not only wants to get rid of , but also you two, hahaha…”
Su Li snorted coldly, ignoring Jin Long, his anger palpable. Su Bing, however, spoke calmly, “But he asked you not to co, so we could focus on our studies.”
Su Bing’s forceful retort emphasized their difference from Jin Long. Jin Long regretted ddling in Su Shen’s family affairs. He was the only one who ended up hurt in the end.
Gu Zi ignored Jin Long, turning to Su Shen with concern, “I ran into the doctor outside. He said that although your injuries are superficial, there are too many and you’ve lost a lot of blood. He suggested you stay in the hospital for a few more days. I think he’s right, what do you think?”
Su Shen had ntioned wanting to leave the hospital early. At the ti, Gu Zi didn’t object imdiately, but deep down, she hoped he would stay until he was fully recovered. Now, using the doctor’s words as a suggestion, she managed to save face for the older man.
Su Shen understood her aning. She wanted him to stay longer. He said, “Then let’s listen to him.”
With that matter settled, Gu Zi breathed a sigh of relief. She washed so fruit, peeled and cut it into pieces for everyone to enjoy after dinner. As they were eating happily, the door to the ward was pushed open. A tall, robust man squeezed in from outside, his head bandaged and one hand tightly wrapped.
The man was about the sa height and build as Su Shen, both of them imposing like mountains. But he looked rougher than Su Shen, with a beard that seed to have been growing for weeks, hair like a bird’s nest, and a cigarette hanging from his mouth. He only put it out when he saw there were won and children present.
Gu Zi guessed that this was the man Su Shen had ntioned, his brother-in-arms who had been through life and death with him many tis – Huo Jing, the younger brother of the boss of Xinghua Departnt Store in Guangcheng.
Su Bing glanced at him, as calm as ever. Su Li, on the other hand, widened his eyes in surprise, exclaiming, “Uncle, you look so strong, like a big bear, so cool! I want to grow up to be as tall and mighty as you. What did you eat to grow so big? Tell , so I can eat more of it in the future!”
In Su Li’s mind, tall and strong n were worthy of admiration. He had always wanted to grow up to be a muscular man.
