The public phone in Su Yuze's drawer kept vibrating. He took it out and saw that it was the woman who had hit on him the day before yesterday. Reading the text message, it was nothing more than asking his name, hobbies, or whether he had a girlfriend.
Disdainfully curling his lips, he simply replied with a text message and then put the phone back in the drawer, ignoring it.
On the table was his personal phone. After thinking for a while, he sent a text message to Su Rou: Little Rou, haven't seen me for two days. Do you miss me?
Su Rou quickly replied: Send me a selfie.
“…” A selfie? Su Yuze rarely used the phone's functions, let alone taking photos, especially selfies which were more of a thing for little girls.
Su Rou waited for a while but still didn't see a reply from Su Yuze. She guessed he must be at a loss there. It was really a bit difficult for a big man to take a selfie. She gave a soft laugh and then pointed the phone at herself...
Just as Su Yuze was studying how to take a selfie, the phone “dinged”. It was a text message. He opened it and saw it was a MMS, a selfie of Su Rou in class.
Su Rou was propping her chin. In front of her was a finance book full of English. There was a pen and a notebook beside it. To facilitate memory, the notes in the notebook were also all written in English. She was smiling and looked very healthy.
There was also a sentence after the photo: Forget it. I'll just take a selfie for you.
Su Yuze admired the photo for a while and then saved it, deciding to enjoy it before going to sleep at night.
Su Yuze: How about one every day from now on?
Su Rou: A tit for tat?
It seemed that Little Rou still remembered his selfie. After thinking for a while, he replied: Next time we'll take a group photo.
Su Rou: Sounds good.
Just as Su Yuze and Su Rou were texting, Ian opened the door of the office, showing a sunny smile. “President, who are you chatting with? You look so happy.”
Su Yuze put away his smile and looked at Ian seriously. “What's up?”
“Hey? Let me guess. You must be chatting with your cute little wife, right?” Ian was like he had discovered a new continent and laughed happily. He had known Su Yuze for five years, and this was the first time he had seen Su Yuze showing such a warm smile!
That little girl was said to be not even eighteen years old. Such an innocent girl was really heart - healing!
“Ian.” Su Yuze called his name warningly.
“Hehe.” Ian gave a silly laugh. Su Yuze was really not cute. He was so gentle when chatting with his girlfriend but so serious when facing him. Ian shrugged, indicating that he was used to it. “I've been investigating for four days. Here's Wen Haotian's information.”
“What about his weaknesses?”
“Um... Does his family count as a weakness?” Ian asked and then said to himself, “Wen Haotian has a wife and a daughter, but the latest investigation shows that there's suddenly an extra kid in his family. At present, we're going to start investigating that girl.”
Since few people had seen that girl, there wasn't much information available. It might be a bit difficult to investigate.
“Um, there's no need to investigate that girl. Focus on Wen Haotian.” Su Yuze said.
“Okay.” Ian nodded. “No problem. I'll definitely do my best to investigate!”
If they could successfully strike at the Wen Group, maybe the ranking of Shengshi would go up. Just thinking about it was an exciting thing!
...
Yao Yu was still on a business trip and hadn't returned home. Only Aunt Yue was at home, boiling medicine for Su Rou.
When Wen Tong got home, she immediately smelled the strong smell of traditional Chinese medicine in the house. She couldn't help frowning and pinched her nose in dissatisfaction. “Aunt Yue, what are you doing? It stinks so much!”
“Miss, I'm boiling medicine for the little miss.” Aunt Yue said. “The little miss is not in good health, so she needs to take this medicine to nourish her body.”
Taking medicine? What medicine? What illness did she have?
“It stinks so much. Stop it quickly!” Wen Tong pinched her nose and said, looking a bit uncomfortable. This stuff smelled so bad that she was about to throw up! “Aunt Yue, stop boiling it!”
Aunt Yue was a bit embarrassed. This traditional Chinese medicine could really improve the little miss's health. It took most of the day to boil the medicine every day, and the heat had to be just right. Otherwise, it wouldn't be as effective. “The little miss is not in good health. She has to take this medicine every day.”
“Come on. She won't die if she doesn't take it for one day. I'm going out tonight. You can boil it later!” Wen Tong said unhappily and arrogantly.
“Ah, but I've been boiling it for a whole day. The little miss will drink it when she comes back later. Miss, please bear with it for a while...” Aunt Yue said.
Wen Tong got angry as soon as she heard Su Rou's name. Why? It didn't matter if she didn't take the medicine for one day. How annoying... “I told you to stop. If you want to do it, do it at night!”
“Miss!” Aunt Yue frowned. How could Miss Wen Tong be so willful? Su Rou was also her younger sister. She didn't see how much pain Su Rou was in during her period. It was so miserable for a girl to be in so much pain. And now she was being criticized for taking medicine to nourish her body.
Wen Tong got really angry. She walked a few steps towards Aunt Yue. “What's wrong, Aunt Yue? Can't you tell who the master is? Su Rou has only been here for a few days, and you're already on her side. Don't you take me, Wen Tong, seriously?”
Aunt Yue's plump body trembled slightly, and then she lowered her head. “I didn't mean that...”
“If you didn't mean that, then stop making this stinky stuff!”
“But...”
“Fine. If you won't stop, I'll do it myself!” Wen Tong said. The smell of the medicine was really too strong. If she smelled it for a few more seconds, she was really going to throw up. Saying that, she reached out to pick up the medicine pot on the stove, planning to put it aside. Otherwise, as long as it was heated by the fire, the smell would keep spreading.
“Ah, Miss, it's very hot...” The medicine had been boiling for several hours. The pot was scalding hot all around. If Wen Tong touched it with her bare hands, she would definitely get burned.
“Ah——” As soon as Wen Tong picked up the medicine pot, the burning sensation hit her. She instinctively loosened her hand due to the pain, and the medicine pot fell out of her hand.
Clang!
The medicine pot unexpectedly smashed to the ground, and the boiling traditional Chinese medicine splashed all over the floor. Wen Tong was still wrinkling her face and running cold water over her fingers. “Damn it! It's so hot! It's killing me! Damn it!”
Aunt Yue looked at the broken pieces all over the floor. A few drops of the medicine juice even splashed on her legs, making her feel the pain. “...” Sigh. The medicine she had been boiling for a whole day was just ruined by Wen Tong!
