"I said she's an aunt, so she is!" An Ruo frowned and stubbornly pursed her lips.
"Kids shouldn't interfere in adults' business. Just enjoy your McDonald's," Bo Jingyu diverted the topic and ruffled her little head.
"Brother, you have to promise me something," An Ruo said while munching on the crispy chicken steak with a blissful squint of her eyes.
"Look at you. Your mouth is all messy," he said dotingly as he took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the corners of her mouth.
"Sister never lets me eat this kind of stuff. I've been dying of craving!" An Ruo's mouth was stuffed full. "You haven't promised me yet."
"Okay, tell me what it is and then I'll decide."
"Take me to McDonald's once a week!"
Bo Jingyu refused without hesitation. "Occasionally is okay, but not regularly."
"I can help you meet sister, and I can also help the sister in the hospital bed just now find new shooting opportunities," she said.
His eyes were deep, and he hooked his lips and agreed. "Deal."
Ruo Chi whispered and complained to Qian Li.
"If the Second Madam knew that the Third Miss was bribed with just a few meals at McDonald's, she'd surely be hopping mad," she said and couldn't help covering her mouth and chuckling.
"What, do you want to eat McDonald's too?" Qian Li asked.
Ruo Chi was confused. "Ah? No, I don't."
Qian Li grinned wickedly. "How about I treat you to a few meals at McDonald's? You can stay in the hospital to watch over the old master for me. It's so boring here."
"Humph! You wish!"
Su Minghan parked his car in the parking space in front of the detention center. With a heavy heart, he strode in, not even bothering to give a perfunctory response to the police officers who came to greet him.
"Mr. Su," the detention center director said, rubbing his hands and smiling obsequiously.
"Where are they?"
"Don't worry! Both of them are having tea in my office," the director replied.
"They've got whatever they want to eat and drink. They've been quite well - behaved!"
Su Minghan frowned unhappily. "Are you out of your mind?"
"… Ah, ah?" The director's smile froze.
"Forget it. Take me to see them," he said tiredly, rubbing the bridge of his nose and not wanting to say another word.
When they got to the office, the director wisely left.
Yan Yueyue was like a frightened cat, shrinking her neck and not daring to raise her head.
While Xiao Shuyuan looked directly at Su Minghan, already mentally prepared.
"Why are you all standing? Sit down," Su Minghan said as he plopped down on the sofa, looking calm.
Yan Yueyue thought he wasn't that angry and sat down with a forced smile.
"Mr. Su, why did you come in person? It makes us feel kind of embarrassed," she said.
"If I didn't come, could you get out?" Su Minghan said bluntly.
"Hehe, you're really considerate of us. Thank you so much!"
Xiao Shuyuan could tell from his expression that he was suppressing his anger. He stepped in front of Yan Yueyue and took the blame on himself. "Brother - in - law, I planned the whole thing. It has nothing to do with Yueyue."
"Ayuan!"
"Don't say a word."
Su Minghan watched them acting in tandem and laughed out of anger.
"You're really stubborn. When did you get so brave?"
His smiling words sent chills down one's spine.
"It seems that the time you spent in Lanshan didn't reform you at all. Instead, you've become even worse," Su Minghan said coldly, looking up with a chilling glint in his eyes.
Xiao Shuyuan wasn't afraid of offending him. After all, it wasn't the first time.
At worst, he'd be sent to another place to suffer inhuman treatment again.
If he could survive the first time, he could survive the second.
"Brother - in - law, if you want to punish someone, punish me. Don't involve Yueyue," he said.
"Ayuan, what are you talking nonsense about? It was originally my idea. Why are you taking all the blame on yourself? How stupid!"
Yan Yueyue stood up and patted her chest. "Mr. Su, don't listen to him. I did it all by myself. I just didn't want Tian Danni to have a good time, so I dragged Ayuan to be my helper."
"Don't want Tian Danni to have a good time?" Su Minghan's veins popped out. "What did she do to you? In the end, you didn't even have a chance to meet her."
"She's just an ordinary college student. If Xiao Shujing wasn't in the same dorm as you, do you think you could have any connection with me? You don't know your place!"
This straightforward humiliation made Yan Yueyue's eyes instantly turn red.
"Brother - in - law, aren't you being too harsh?" Xiao Shuyuan couldn't stand it anymore and roared.
"Don't call me brother - in - law!" Su Minghan suddenly stood up, glaring at him with gritted teeth. "I've been lenient enough with you, but that doesn't mean you can challenge my bottom line without restraint!"
After saying that, he turned his gaze to Yan Yueyue.
"Do you think it's fun to sneak into the hospital and do such despicable things? Do you know that if Tian Danni had been just one minute later, she would have died! Can you use sleeping pills casually?"
"For goodness' sake, you've been to school and learned knowledge. This is a matter of life and death!"
Su Minghan's roaring words left them speechless. They even fell into a state of regret and self - blame, looking completely desperate.
"I… I didn't expect things to be so serious…" Yan Yueyue shed two lines of tears unconsciously.
"I just wanted to play a prank. I didn't…"
Su Minghan scoffed and interrupted her. "A prank?"
"What if I drug you when you're lying in the hospital bed and you almost die, and then I tell you it's just a prank?
What if your legs are broken and your arms are fractured so you can't resist, and then I make you blind and tell you it's a prank. Would you accept it? Could you still laugh?"
"I'm sorry… Wuwu, I'm sorry!"
She buried her face in her hands and fell to the ground, sobbing loudly.
Xiao Shuyuan couldn't bear to see Yan Yueyue being wronged. He let her lean on his shoulder and slowly calmed down. "Brother - in - law, do whatever you want to punish us."
"No matter what punishment you give us, we'll accept it."
"But I beg you," he looked at Su Minghan with sincere eyes. "Please don't make Yueyue feel embarrassed. She did this for sister. She doesn't have any bad intentions. She's really good to sister!"
Su Minghan was completely disheartened. "Hurting others is being good to Xiao Shujing?"
"According to you, is she also an accomplice?"
Xiao Shuyuan shook his head with a sob. "Sister doesn't know anything!"
"From today on, your school enrollments will be canceled," Su Minghan didn't want to argue anymore. "Get out of Yancheng."
"No, no, please, no…"
Yan Yueyue crawled to his feet on all fours, humbly grabbing his trouser leg. She cried so pitifully that it made one's heart ache. "I'm about to graduate. I can't be expelled from school at this time. I really can't!"
"Why didn't you think about the consequences when you did such a thing?"
Su Minghan looked down at her with disgust.
"Xiao Shuyuan must have had bad luck for eight lifetimes to fall for you. You're a jinx. No one likes you wherever you go. If you like my trousers so much, just hold on to them. I'll take them off and give them to you later."
"Brother - in - law! You can do whatever you want to me, but don't do this to Yueyue…"
"Shut up," Su Minghan said coldly, looking at Xiao Shuyuan. "While I can still hold my temper, take this woman and disappear right away. Otherwise, don't blame me for involving the innocent and not caring about our past relationship."
