Little Master Su Yichen was about to embark on a learning journey. Yes, it was learning! Not going to school!
That meant he was about to follow in Su Yuze's footsteps! Of course, this was also Su Rongqi's idea. After all, Su Yuze still managed two companies. This grandson must learn relevant knowledge as soon as possible so that he could help his father in the future.
"Grandpa, Xiaochen is only five years old. Are you sure you really want him to undergo such intense training?" On a sunny weekend, Su Rongqi came to Su Yuze's house and put forward this request. Immediately, Su Rou asked uncertainly.
"Children absorb the fastest when trained at this age. Yuze was like this back then," Su Rongqi said.
The 87-year-old man's hair had turned completely gray. Although his legs and feet were not as nimble as before, he still looked quite hale and hearty overall.
"I know that," Su Rou nodded. "But how about letting Xiaochen go to school first?"
"Xiaorou, boys need more experience," Su Rongqi sighed. "Otherwise, they will end up like Ziqi!"
Su Rou smiled. Grandpa had told her during a chat that Su Hongyu got married three years ago and had a daughter. Now he was trying hard to have a son. Su Ziqi wasn't so lucky. Once he had an affair outside and got a girl pregnant. Finally, a son was born. But because Su Yue and Qian Yingnan thought the girl was not worthy of the Su family, they took in the child but kicked the girl out. It was said that the girl was still pestering Su Ziqi, wanting him to give her a proper status!
"So, I don't want to see such a tragedy happen again," Su Rongqi shrugged. "How about waiting for Yichen to come back and asking him what he thinks?"
"Okay," Su Rou nodded.
It seemed that since Su Yichen had grown up, Grandpa's attitude had gradually softened. He was no longer as decisive as before. Now he even knew to ask for Su Yichen's opinion. In Su Rongqi's own words, he was old and now just wanted his children and grandchildren to be happy to spend the rest of his life.
Su Rou looked at Su Rongqi with a touch of heartache. Grandpa's health wasn't very good!
"Mom, I'm back," Su Yichen ran in from outside. He was dirty from playing and sweating profusely. "Hey, Great-grandpa, you're here too."
"Hey, Yichen, come here quickly," Su Rongqi beamed as soon as he saw Su Yichen and kindly beckoned him over.
"Wait a minute, Grandpa," Su Rou said to Su Yichen. "Xiaochen, go wash your hands and face first." This kid was so dirty from playing. How could he just pounce over? "It's better to take a shower."
Su Yichen stopped in his tracks just as he was about to go over. He looked at his dirty self, rolled his big eyes, and immediately stood up straight with his chest out. "Yes! I guarantee to complete the task!"
Su Rongqi burst out laughing. This great-grandson was really cute. "Xiaorou, you've taught the child very well."
"Where, it's every mother's duty," Su Rou said with a smile.
"Really? I don't think so!" Su Rongqi suddenly changed his expression and snorted. "Xiaorou, do you still remember the girl that Ziqi got pregnant?"
"Remember. What's up?"
"The girl and her family want Ziqi to give the girl a proper status. Although the girl isn't a decent one, they already have a child. It's time to give her a status."
Hearing this, Su Rou nodded in agreement. She could understand this, after all, mothers always wanted to stay by their children's sides.
"But Ziqi still refuses to get married. Do you know that the girl even threatened that if Ziqi didn't marry her, she would kill their son and make sure Ziqi couldn't have him either!" Su Rongqi shook his head with a cold face. He couldn't believe the girl could be so heartless. After all, it was her own child.
"Ah..." Su Rou was stunned. She didn't expect the situation to turn out like this. It seemed that Su Ziqi's life had been getting worse and worse in the past few years.
As they were talking, Su Yichen had already taken a shower and come downstairs in a clean and fresh outfit. His little face was still flushed, and his eyes curved into crescents when he smiled, just like Su Rou's. He looked extremely adorable. He walked over and sat down beside Su Rongqi. "Why did Great-grandpa come?"
"I came to see you. What, don't you welcome Great-grandpa?" Su Rongqi said kindly.
"No, I welcome you! Welcome!" Su Yichen clapped his hands while smiling. "Let Aunt Wang cook some dishes you like."
Su Rongqi laughed happily twice. "Good, good. Yichen has a very hospitable demeanor!" This little guy was still young, but he spoke quite maturely.
"I learned from Mom and Dad," Su Yichen said proudly after being praised.
"Yichen is really smart," Su Rongqi praised him generously. "Then do you want to learn more things?"
Su Yichen thought for a while and nodded. "Yes." He wanted to be as smart as his father. Although his father was sometimes stingy with him, there was no denying that his father was really smart and knew everything!
Su Rongqi nodded in relief. "That's good. Let your father arrange some training for you. Would you like to?"
Su Yichen didn't understand. "What?"
"It's a bit different from going to school. They will teach you a lot of things there, like knowledge, self-defense, computers... and so on," Su Rongqi patiently explained to him. "Your father learned these things from a young age, so he became so outstanding. Yichen, do you want to surpass your father?"
"Yes!" But... Su Yichen thought for a while. "But if I go to learn these things, won't I be able to stay at home every day?"
"Of course."
Su Yichen's little face fell. He looked a bit reluctant. "Then I don't want to go... I want to stay at home. I want to accompany Mom." He looked at Su Rou pitifully. He really wanted to stay with Mom.
Su Rongqi looked at Su Rou. It seemed that Yichen wasn't unwilling but just reluctant to leave home. But boys had to go out eventually. How could they stay in their mothers' arms all their lives? "Yichen, listen to Great-grandpa. Boys shouldn't be too clingy to their mothers. Your father's parents were not around when he was a child. He started to gain experience when he was three years old."
"Ah?" Su Yichen was a bit surprised. This was the first time he had heard of these things. It turned out that his father didn't have his parents when he was a child. How pitiful... No wonder he liked to be clingy to Mom! "Dad is so amazing."
"So, Yichen, if you want to surpass your father, you have to start learning now."
Su Yichen walked over to Su Rou aggrievedly and nestled in her arms, silently. Su Rou looked at Su Rongqi apologetically, then stroked her son's head. "If you don't want to, it's okay to go to school."
Unexpectedly, Su Yichen raised his head from Su Rou's arms. "No, I want to go!"
