Chapter 70: Jiaojiao is spoiled by the rough man

Chapter 100: Trying to Exonerate Himself

She glanced at the young people around her, and deliberately took a step forward and lowered her voice so that only she and Xu En could hear: "I heard that when your father was in the health center, you refused to even greet him. You did nothing all day and idled around at home. All the trivial matters were taken care of by your two sisters. Can such behavior really make people like you?"

"Sorry, Sister Wanwan, seriously, I was just joking just now, don't take it seriously..."

Xu En has always been good at observing other people's expressions. After a brief panic, he immediately smiled in a flattering manner, moved back to keep a distance from his companions, and at the same time secretly comforted Dahuang and Ermao behind him.

The brothers who were awakened by Xu En nodded timidly, saying that they had indeed done it just for fun before.

"Do you think I'm blind?"

They had colluded to set the time of the attack, and yet they were trying to exonerate themselves?

"I have already warned you that although Xu En is the fourth child of the Xu family, damaging his eldest brother's car will not cause any big trouble, but if you dare to follow suit, the consequences will be unpredictable. You think that his willingness to take responsibility means everything, then you are totally wrong. If the matter is exposed, it will not be resolved by detention and writing a self-criticism."

Seeing these guys all bowing their heads at her words, Su Wanwan said calmly, "You smashed Third Brother's car, and you must know what the result will be."

When she walked over to Xu En, she didn't even need to look closely to notice that the boy was trembling involuntarily. It was obvious that this was the first time he was in such a situation.

"You were never there during the days when you were taking care of your father in the hospital. I think you should know how disappointed he was, right? As for your eldest and second sisters, now that your father has left home, do you think they will protect you like they did before?"

Xu En continued to flatter humbly: "Sister Wanwan, I'm really not kidding, please don't tell my third brother, please..."

Su Wanwan would simply ignore such a plea: "By the way, I almost forgot that time when your father was seriously ill at home and the villagers couldn't find you. Why did you choose to hide away? Did you think the scene of his illness was too ugly?"

"That's not the case, Sister Wanwan... I just panicked at the time, and I will never do that again..."

She nodded in agreement and continued, "Remember your promise and go home."

For the cowardly Mr. Xu Si, Su Wanwan's words were enough to make him give up the idea, so she turned around and returned to the radio station, and everything went as planned.

There was no trace of hatred behind her as she disappeared. When Su Wanwan finished preparing the slogan for tomorrow in the studio, as dusk gradually fell, she sorted out the papers in her hands and put them neatly into her portable bag. After closing the door gently, she walked back to the Su residence with ease.

At the same time yesterday, Su Wanwan was still worried about Xu Yan's safety and was eager to go to the county. Even if she couldn't see Xu Yan, she wanted to go to the hospital to visit Mr. Xu. But she never expected that within one day, Xu Yan would be able to return safely, and the condition was better than expected. Not only did the county stop the investigation, but even the trouble that Xu En might cause was eliminated because of her timely intervention.

The moment I opened the door, I was filled with joy. Mother Zhao and sister-in-law were busy in the kitchen, and the tempting aroma of stewed eggplant and roasted meat was already wafting into my nose.

"Wanwan is home!" Zhao Ying called from the kitchen.

Su Wanwan responded with a sweet "hmm", placed the lunch box casually on the dining table, and then returned to her own nest.

"Why is Wanwan so happy today?" After finishing her work, Zhao Ying put on a rag and knocked on her daughter's door.

Su Wanwan guessed that it might be the joy of recovering from heatstroke, but she couldn't easily tell her mother about such feelings.

"Maybe... it's just recovery from a summer heat stroke." She said with a smile, and poured her mother a glass of water to dispel her mother's doubts.

"It would be best if you feel better. These days I have been wondering whether I should make some ginger water for you." Zhao Ying picked up the half jar of water like a treasure and took a sip. Her expression changed from initial concern to subtlety.

"Wanwan, are you hiding something?"

Su Wanwan, who was arranging the bedding, paused when she heard this. The expression on her mother's face was touching.

"Why do you say that? I've been at home all the time. Is there anything I can hide from you?"

Su Wanwan didn't realize that as she answered, a hint of shyness gradually appeared on her face. When she heard the topic about Yan Wenxuan, Su Wanwan's heart suddenly trembled. She recalled the original owner's infatuation with Yan Wenxuan that ended in vain, and she felt disgusted.

"What Mom just said...is it about Yan Wenxuan?" Su Wanwan tried to change the subject.

The smile deepened, as if there was something else behind her words: "Mother said that her daughter will grow up eventually, but Yan Wenxuan is unreliable and looks cunning and untrustworthy. He is an educated youth who went to the countryside, but his behavior is not correct. If he returns to the city, he may get into trouble."

After saying this, she turned around to check the situation in the kitchen and said, "The pot is boiling, I'll go take a look. Dad has something to tell you while we eat later." However, that ambiguous look was still on her face, hinting at a deeper hidden meaning.

Could it be because someone mentioned that she had gone to Xu's house to join in the fun during the day? Su Wanwan couldn't help but feel indescribable shame.

The Su residence seemed a little deserted today. When Su Wanwan washed her hands and prepared to eat, she did not see her third sister-in-law Jiang Panhua and her third brother Su Di. Only her eldest brother Su Gao was playing a game of throwing stones and jumping with a group of children.

"Dad, you're back." Su Wanwan guessed that her third sister-in-law might have caused trouble at home, so she missed dinner, but the sudden sound of footsteps outside the door broke her thoughts.

"I'm back." Su Yang's father put down his luggage, turned back to his room as usual, picked up the good cigarettes that Su Zhan had bought for him, lit them up, blew out a smoke ring leisurely, and then looked through the bedroom door at his daughter Su Wanwan who was sitting silently at the dining table.

"The tobacco your third brother bought is really good, much better than the dry tobacco I made by hand."

Hearing her father's words, Su Wanwan smiled and said, "Why not give it to me after your father finishes smoking this pack? This way, my third brother will be learning carpentry in the next village and won't be able to come home often. I will go to the town or county to buy it for him."

"There's no rush in the next one or two days, he still has a whole bag. The reason I came home early is actually because I want to talk to you about other things." Su Yang took two deep breaths, and an imperceptible smile seemed to appear on his dark face, which made Su Wanwan's heart move slightly.

As the head of the village, Su Yang usually gives people a dignified and taciturn prestige. He is always as gentle and elegant as Secretary Wang. The difference is that he maintains the demeanor of a leader even at home. Su Wanwan rarely has the opportunity to see his truly relaxed smile.

"You mean the incident today when I went to watch the fun, right?" Thinking of the time when she was scolded, Su Wanwan lowered her head, feeling like she was in the wrong.

As the daughter of the village chief, she shouldn't have been too involved in the disputes in the village.
