C382 Wishful Thinking
At this moment, the security guard's voice entered his ears, "I didn't expect him to be this pretty boy. Interesting."
The security guard's tone was filled with ridicule and mockery, causing the air stewardess to sound particularly ear-piercing.
She had a good impression of Su Yang, because Su Yang's heroic performance on the plane was something she had never seen before in other men.
"How can you be sure that he is a pretty boy?" The air stewardess said in disbelief.
"Do you still want to deceive yourself? You can't tell how old the woman in the car is, so why are you lying to yourself? " the security guard said.
The air stewardess' heart sank.
Through the window, one could see that the woman in the car did indeed have a certain age. Although she was very beautiful and took care of herself well, one could still see traces of time on her face. This was something that could not be hidden.
Could it be that he really was just a pretty boy?
"Stop dreaming! You're just a flight attendant, how could you possibly get that far? Why don't you see what kind of car he's driving?" After the security guard said those words with a mocking smile, he walked past the air stewardess. The disgust in his eyes towards Su Yang went down to the bone marrow.
The air stewardess watched the car leave and sighed deeply in her heart. No wonder when he received the business card, he did not even look at it. So he was this kind of person.
The car drove towards the Su Family courtyard.
Shi Jing stared at Su Yang the whole way, while Su Yang stared out of the window. The two of them were speechless.
"How long are you planning to stay back this time?" Shi Jing broke the silence and asked.
"It would be best if it didn't last more than a day." Su Yang said lightly.
Shi Jing wasn't surprised by his answer. "Your favorite dish has already been prepared at home. We'll talk about it after the meal."
In the Su Family courtyard, there was a place where Su Yang had an unhappy childhood. It seemed that he could still see the figure of that year at every corner.
"Where's Grandpa Yan?" After returning home, Su Yang unexpectedly didn't see Yan Jun, which made him feel very strange. If Yan Jun knew he had returned, he would definitely be waiting for him at the front door.
"He has some matters to attend to and has left the capital. I'm afraid that you won't be able to see him again after this trip." Shi Jing said.
Su Yang frowned slightly. Yan Jun's duty was to protect Su Family of Capital City. If it wasn't something especially important, he definitely wouldn't have left so easily.
Did something happen?
Ever since Nangong Qianqiu died, Shi Jing dismissed all the servants in the house. Because in the current Su Family courtyard, she was the only one who lived here, and there was no need for servants to take care of her. Furthermore, she liked the tranquility of being alone, and did not want to be disturbed by strangers.
When they arrived at the dining room, Shi Jing saw that the dishes were slightly cold. She said, "Hurry up and eat. The dishes are going to get cold soon."
"You did it?" Su Yang asked.
Shi Jing said, "After receiving the news that you were going back to the capital, I started to do it. Try it. If there's anything that's suitable …"
"No need, since it's something you cooked, I don't think I need to eat it." Su Yang said lightly.
This sentence made Shi Jing's heart hurt. Although she had a ruthless heart while placing her hopes on Su Yang, but Shi Jing still found it hard to accept Su Yang's rejection of her. After all, they were the closest blood relatives of each other.
"Fine, if you aren't hungry, then just don't eat. If you have any requests, feel free to tell me." Shi Jing said.
Su Yang gritted his teeth. He realized that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't say the word "money". It was too difficult.
All these years, he had never spent a single bit of Su Family, but now, he had no choice but to ask Shi Jing for money!
"Could it be that you have something against me? I am your mother." Shi Jing said.
"I want money." Su Yang said.
"No problem, you can take all the liquid funds from Su Family." Shi Jing said that Su Yang took the money to deal with Su Yan, which Shi Jing would never hold back. After all, she had been humiliated greatly by Su Yan, and as a servant girl, Han Qing still dared to hit her. How could Shi Jing not take revenge?
"Make the IOU and I'll return it to you. I definitely won't give you one point for free." Su Yang said.
Shi Jing bitterly smiled and said: "The Su Family's money should belong to you anyway; there's no need to borrow any bills."
Su Yang shook his head and said: "In your eyes, everything regarding Su Family belongs to Su Jun, it has nothing to do with me. If you don't want to borrow it, I will think of another way."
Su Yang was probably the most paranoid person in the world when he was in the limelight. The things that he believed in would never change.
Just like how he treated Shen Qianyao as his wife, he would never have the slightest bit of interest in other women. Even if it was the beautiful Qi Yiyun, he would still be unmoved by her.
Sensing Su Yang's persistence, Shi Jing could only sigh and say, "Fine, we'll do as you say. Whatever you want."
After Shi Jing took the pen and paper, she wrote a IOU without asking Su Yang for more.
Su Yang signed and took the bank card from Shi Jing's hands, then directly left the Su Family courtyard.
Looking at the table full of dishes, Shi Jing could only smile wryly. She had spent a lot of effort to cook these, but she didn't expect Su Yang to refuse to even taste them.
After leaving the Su Family courtyard, Su Yang walked for half an hour on foot before arriving at a small alley, where the street merchants hawked their wares. This was a place that Su Yang used to frequent, and when he received unfair treatment at home, he liked to come here by himself to stroll around, eat something that he liked, and use it to ease his mood.
Su Yang stopped when he arrived at an old soy milk shop.
It had been almost four years since he came to this place, but there was still no change. The old mahogany doors and windows showed the history of this shop.
The first time Su Yang came was when he was 14 years old. When he was young, he was called to the store by the Lady Boss to shelter him from the heavy rain. From then on, he came here often.
When he first met the Lady Boss, he found that she was still a charming woman. But now, the hair on her temples had turned white, and there were traces of an old man on them.
When the Lady Boss saw Su Yang standing at the door, she walked out of the store.
"I haven't seen you in years." The Lady Boss said to Su Yang with a smile.
"Same old rules." Su Yang said with a smile as he strode into the restaurant.
The Lady Boss signaled the waiter to serve Su Yang. She sat opposite Su Yang.
The first time he saw Su Yang, he was crying his heart out and tears were mixed in the rain. At that time, the Lady Boss knew that the guy in front of her was a bitter child.
Seeing the Lady Boss staring at him, Su Yang felt a bit embarrassed and asked, "Lady Boss, if you look at me like this, it can't be that there's something on my face, right?"
"He's a bit handsome." The Lady Boss laughed.
These words made Su Yang nervous. Had he been tricked by the Lady Boss?
"Lady Boss, if you have something to say, just say it. I'm a little scared." Su Yang smiled bitterly.
"Now that I've grown up, I should be able to stand on my own two feet. Are you sure you haven't been bullied by others?" the Lady Boss asked.
Su Yang nodded heavily and said, "If ordinary people want to bully me, that is impossible. However, there is always someone stronger than you. If you don't want to be bullied, you must become stronger."
When the Lady Boss heard this, she sighed and said, "A person's pursuit will never be satisfied in their entire life. The more they hold on to, the stronger their desire will be. Only by being satisfied will they be able to give you a real life.
Su Yang naturally understood this logic. However, he couldn't stop it and didn't have the qualifications to do so. Otherwise, how could he protect Shen Qianyao?
"Lady Boss, I also hope that this day can come soon." Su Yang said.
At this time, two people walked in from the door. A young man and woman, both girls petite, dressed like a little girl, with yellow hair and a few green tassels, making them stand out.
"You damn girl, where did you go again?" When she saw the girls, the Lady Boss was furious and didn't want to argue with them.
