The Tycoon's Little Darling: Uncle, you're going to spoil me rotten!

Chapter 529 All of Su Linyan's Attentiveness

Team Leader Xu was completely baffled. "What's going on?"

"This is a bit of a hassle." Su Linyan flicked his cigarette ash. "Captain Xu, how do I persuade the woman's family to agree to let their daughter marry me?"

Team Leader Xu: "..."

The following afternoon, Su Linyan took Jiang Momo to the examination venue, picked her up and took her back to the hotel, and then went to the team to work the night shift.

He didn't mention marriage again throughout the entire conversation, which piqued Jiang Momo's curiosity. "Su Linyan, did Mom and Dad hit you again? Are you scared and don't dare to marry me?"

Su Linyan looked at Jiang Momo and said, "No, you can focus on your exams. I won't let you get involved in family matters anymore."

Su Linyan wasn't at the hotel that evening. He went out for a bit and came back with some fruit, snacks, and drinks for Jiang Momo, leaving them at the hotel for her to eat. After he left, Jiang Momo took out her phone and called her mother.

Despite her repeated attempts to persuade her family, they still didn't believe that she and Su Linyan were innocent. So, she made the call to her mother as his girlfriend.

"Hey Mom, are you asleep?"

"Not yet? You're still staying at a hotel with him?"

Jiang Momo said, "No, he went to work the night shift. I just wanted to ask you something. Did my brother go back to see you and Dad again?"

"I've already approached them, but I didn't agree."

Jiang Momo lowered her head, her hands clutching the hem of her clothes. After hesitating for a long time, she finally asked, "I... um... Mom, am I your perfect daughter, but not your perfect... daughter-in-law?"

There was a long silence on the other end of the phone. Her phone was on speakerphone, so both she and her husband could hear what Jiang Momo was saying.

“Xiao Mo, what you and Lin Yan did this time really shocked your father and me. It even took us several days to accept it,” Madam Su said.

Jiang Momo lowered her head, then nodded. "I understand, Mom." No one could accept this so easily.

Mrs. Su continued, "But in your parents' hearts, you will always be perfect, regardless of your status. I'm worried that Lin Yan will force you to get married. I told him that nothing he says to me works unless you come and tell me in person that you are willing to be with her."

……

The mother and daughter talked on the phone for half an hour. After hanging up, Jiang Momo leaned against the bed and looked at the two large bags of fruit and snacks that Su Linyan had bought for her.

She crawled over, opened the bag, and took out the snacks inside, examining them one by one. Over the years, Su Linyan even knew which brand of potato chips she liked, and he had even carefully chosen the sugar content of the snacks for her. Jiang Momo sat on the bed and suddenly recalled that when she was in high school, she had bad teeth and couldn't eat anything cold, hard, or sweet, yet she had a sweet tooth.

She bought sweet sugarcane outdoors in winter; the sugarcane was just the right thickness for her to hold in one hand.

The outside is a purplish-red skin, and the inside is full of sweet juice.

She would bite the skin with her teeth, often drawing blood from her gums. Su Linyan saw this several times and felt sorry for her. Every time she ate sugarcane, Su Linyan would take the sugarcane away, bite off the purplish-red skin, and hand it to her so she could eat the sweet core inside.

Unfortunately, the sugarcane has a hard, jointed part that she couldn't bite through no matter how hard she tried.

So, Su Linyan waited silently until she finished eating the middle part, then he took the part that she couldn't chew and gnawed it off, before giving her the delicious core in the middle.

When visiting relatives during the Chinese New Year, who would offer him sugarcane? Su Linyan politely declined, saying, "Xiao Mo can't finish one, she can't chew it. One is enough for the two of us."

I don't know when it started, but Su Linyan would check the ingredient lists on the back of her snacks for her. If they weren't suitable for her, she would cry, and Su Linyan wouldn't buy them for her anymore.

What she couldn't bite, Su Linyan bit for her.

If she couldn't peel it open, Su Linyan would peel it for her.

He seems to have become an inseparable person in my life. Can I really leave him?

Jiang Momo lay in bed reminiscing about her childhood...

Gradually, Jiang Momo closed her eyes wearily. In her dream, she was wearing a princess's white dress, running on a green meadow. She held a windmill in her hand, which seemed to be colorful. Behind her, her mother gently reminded her, "Momo, run slowly, be careful not to fall."

In front of her was Jiang Chenyu as a teenager, her older brother back then. His features were gentle, unlike now, when he was cold and serious, with sharp brows that frightened her.

She finally ran to her brother. Jiang Chenyu picked her up and said with a smile, "Want to play with an airplane? Your second brother will fold another one for you."

Suddenly, her dream turned dark. Her second brother, who had been holding her, disappeared. When she turned around, she couldn't find her parents. Instead of lush green grass, she found herself on a mirror-like surface with an abyss below. She began to sleep restlessly, as if enveloped in a dark mist.

Jiang Momo cried out in fear amidst the mist, "Brother, brother!"

In the darkness, someone was calling her, "Xiao Mo, Xiao Mo."

Jiang Momo heard the voices around her; it was Su Linyan's voice. She cried out, "Brother Su, I'm here. Brother, where are you?"

Before long, more and more voices called out to her, "Momo, Xiaomo, Sister Mo"...

"Second brother, Nuannuan, Xiaosu, where are you? It's so dark here, I can't see you. Su Linyan, where are you? I'm scared." In Jiang Momo's nightmare, her voice eventually disappeared, and she was the only one in the entire dark world. Her feet were sinking, and her body was sinking too. She panicked and was afraid. "Brother, Su Linyan, please come and save Xiaomo."

In her most helpless and frightened moment, Jiang Momo suddenly woke up from her bed with a start. "Brother."

She sat bolt upright, gradually emerging from the terror of her dream. She was drenched in sweat, tears still wet on her face. She had taken a shower that afternoon, but the sweat had soaked her hair again.

The hotel lights were still on, and snacks were scattered all over the bed. The room was as quiet as in her dream. She held her face in her hands, her heart pounding with lingering fear. She needed to breathe deeply to calm her dread.

She left the hotel lights on all night.

As dawn approached, she lay in bed and drowsily closed her eyes.

After handing over her shift, Su Linyan immediately returned to the hotel.

Jiang Momo confiscated his room key, so he had to stand at the door and knock, "Xiao Mo, Xiao Mo?"

No one answered, and the phone call didn't wake her up. Worried, Su Linyan went to the cleaning lady and used her card to open the hotel door.

Upon entering, Su Linyan saw the girl sleeping on the bed wearing a steam eye mask, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

The quilt was scattered with the knowledge points she had reviewed last night. Su Linyan picked it up and looked at it, wondering what time she had gone to bed last night.

He sat by the bedside, not wanting to wake her.

Jiang Momo woke up at noon. She only felt safe when she saw Su Linyan in the room. "When did you get back?"

"You got back at 9:30. What time did you study until last night?"

Jiang Momo: "It seems to be around six o'clock this morning."

Su Lin casually remarked, "Staying up all night isn't good for your health." "I'm afraid to sleep alone when you're not here."

Su Linyan: "..." He looked at Jiang Momo with a probing gaze.

Jiang Momo got up and went to the bathroom to wash up. While changing her clothes, she chased Su Linyan out, but after she finished changing, she let him in again.

After finishing his night shift, Su Linyan was told by Jiang Momo to lie down on the bed and catch up on his sleep, while she sat at the foot of the bed to study.

Jiang Momo, who had been studying diligently for several days, began to prepare for the exam.

Until the last exam was over.

Jiang Momo appeared at the Su family's door once again. She mustered her courage and entered the living room. "Mom, I've come to see you."
