He was just an ordinary man who would worry about whether his woman would fall for someone else. After all, there was a seven - year age gap between them. Xiaorou'er was still young and had yet to meet many people. He was afraid she would be snatched away.
"Hey, I'm telling you your worries are unnecessary," Su Rou couldn't help but say. After all, she knew her own worth well.
Su Yuze just smiled faintly and shook his head. Xiaorou'er didn't know how wonderful the special charm she exuded was, a quality that many people longed for. "Anyway, I'm going to hold onto you tightly."
Su Rou pinched his face. "You fool."
"Oh, you've got some nerve now, daring to call me names." Su Yuze flicked her forehead.
"Can't I?" Su Rou covered her forehead and glared at him.
"Sure you can."
Su Rou imitated the way he used to treat her, reaching out to pat Su Yuze's head. "Good boy."
"..." Su Yuze's expression changed slightly. "Xiaorou'er, are you itching for a spanking lately?"
Not even allowed to pat his head!
...
The next day
The whole of City T was in an uproar. The reason was that the Su family had revealed an earth - shattering secret. The youngest princess of the Su family was actually not a child of the Su family! She was an adopted one!
According to an insider, Su Rou was an abandoned baby back then and was picked up by Su Nuannuan, who raised her as her own daughter. However, Su Nuannuan passed away due to illness not long after. But before her death, she entrusted Su Rou to the Su family, and she had been raised by them until now.
But since Su Rou's biological parents had come looking, the truth about the adopted daughter had finally come to light!
This insider was Yu Feng. He told the story according to the script given to him by Su Yuze. Anyway, as was well - known, Su Nuannuan had severed her father - daughter relationship with Su Rongqi back then, so it wasn't strange for her to pick up an abandoned baby.
But then, an even more shocking piece of news broke out. Su Yuze, the president of Shengshi, was dating the adopted daughter of the Su family?! This news was really explosive!
But according to the insider again, since the biological parents of the adopted daughter wanted to use her for some bad deeds, Su Yuze, in order to protect her, didn't hesitate to leave everything in City T behind and rush to the United States.
Finally, there was a note: They are truly in love!
When people saw this news, the whole nation was boiling. This was big news from a wealthy family! How could the little princess turn into an adopted daughter overnight? But more people, after seeing this news, sincerely blessed them. The two of them had been together since childhood, so it wasn't strange for them to develop feelings. They weren't real siblings, so why couldn't they be together?
...
When the Su family saw this news in the newspaper, Su Kaiming slapped his thigh. "Nonsense!" What was Yuze thinking? Why did he expose it like this? Such an exposure would do no good to the Su family! Moreover, Su Rou wasn't picked up by Su Nuannuan at all; it was Su Yuze himself who had brought her back!
Liu Rulan frowned as she looked at the newspaper. They were all well - known figures. Once such things were exposed, who knew how they would be hounded by paparazzi when they went out!
Su Meimei stared at the newspaper in anger. "Su Rou, that liar. How could she be worthy of being with Brother Yuze!" she said angrily.
"Right now, the problem doesn't seem to be whether Su Rou and Su Yuze are together or not..." but rather that Su Rou's identity had been exposed, and their future outings would become very troublesome.
When Su Yue and Qian Yingnan saw this news, they just glanced at each other for a second and silently went about their own business. After all, Su Yue still had to ask for favors from Su Yuze in the future, so he didn't comment on Su Yuze's actions.
And Su Ziqi was the most shocked one. He just stared at the newspaper as if he was going to burn a hole through it. How could... Su Rou and Su Yuze be together? Although their relationship had been quite close before, he had thought it was just sibling affection at that time. He never thought they were already a couple.
"Ziqi, go back to your room first," Su Yue said when he saw Su Ziqi staring silently at the newspaper.
"..." But Su Ziqi ignored him.
"Ziqi!" Su Yue raised his voice a bit.
"Ah?"
"Go back to your room first."
"Okay."
Su Ziqi followed the order obediently, stood up, and mechanically walked up to the second floor.
Su Meimei and Su Hongyu also went back to their rooms, leaving this space for the adults. Su Kaiming threw the newspaper away. "Tell me, what on earth is Yuze doing!"
"I don't know..."
"If Dad finds out about this, he'll be so angry!"
"..." Hearing Liu Rulan's words, Su Kaiming paused for a moment. Then, as if he had thought of something, "Right, I have to tell Dad about this." Humph, in this way, the old man would hate Su Yuze even more.
Su Yue jumped up and tried to stop Su Kaiming. "Big brother, the matter isn't even confirmed yet. Why are you in such a hurry?"
"Not confirmed?" Su Kaiming pointed at the newspaper sarcastically. "It's already in the newspaper, and you still say it's not confirmed?"
"Then you can't bother Dad. What if something happens to him out of anger?"
"Then are you just going to let Yuze do whatever he wants?" It was Su Yuze who would make the old man angry. And if the old man was angry to death... even better! "Don't think I don't know what you're up to. You're just currying favor with Yuze!"
Don't think he didn't know Su Yue's little tricks!
"Big brother, you..."
Su Kaiming shook off Su Yue's hand, pressed the phone twice, and made a call. "Hello, Dad... Yeah, it's me."
Since the call had already been made, Su Yue could only stand there frowning and waiting.
"What's up?" Su Rongqi asked.
"Um, have you read today's newspaper?" Su Kaiming asked carefully.
"Read it."
Read it? Then he didn't need to inform the old man. So Su Kaiming said angrily, "Dad, what does Yuze mean by this!"
"Yeah." Su Rongqi responded faintly.
Yeah? Just a single "yeah" and that was it? Where was the anger? The scolding? Why was there nothing? What was wrong with the old man? "Dad, Yuze doesn't take our Su family seriously at all."
"Let's wait and see." Su Rongqi said these two words and then hung up the phone, leaving Su Kaiming standing there awkwardly.
Seeing that Su Kaiming didn't say a word for a long time, Su Yue couldn't help but ask, "Big brother, what did Dad... say?" If the old man completely hated Su Yuze, it would be troublesome.
"Dad... " Su Kaiming frowned. Damn it! What on earth did the old man mean? Why couldn't he understand!
