Chapter 356: Dare to say anything

All Xu Yun knew about Su Tian was that Shen Chaoxi occasionally mentioned it.

Another time, she went to Peking University to deliver something to Shen Chaoxi, and they met. The three of them also had a meal in the cafeteria.

What will she do when her niece turns 100 days old?
"Is it not appropriate for me to go?" Xu Yun put down his chopsticks and suddenly lost his appetite.

Su Yi raised his eyes and looked towards her, his gaze carefully examining every inch of the girl's face.

"You were lying on the balcony looking at my car early in the morning. You were eager to go out for a ride, weren't you?"

"Ah?" Xu Yun didn't expect Su Yi to give her this answer, and was stunned for a moment: "No, I was just watering the orchids and accidentally took a look, okay?"

"Really?" The man lowered his eyes and hid the smile in his eyes.

"You were watering the orchids, but you stared at my car for ten minutes. Who would believe this?"

"Have it?"

How long?

Xu Yun thought to himself that he was just daydreaming.

"Oh, I was thinking about something at work, so I might have been distracted. I really didn't mean to take your car for a spin."

Su Yi finished the last few noodles, and there was only a few sips of soup left in the bowl. He put down his chopsticks and wiped the corners of his mouth with a tissue.

"Then I'll take you back?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Su Yi's cell phone rang. It was Su Tian's voice.

"Brother, you should come earlier. They are all here, only you are missing. And you said you would bring your friends, don't break your promise."

The two siblings said a few more words and hung up the phone.

Su Yi showed Xu Yun the phone he had just hung up.

"You have nothing to do anyway, so come with me over there to have some fun. There are only a few friends there."

Xu Yun wanted to refuse, but he kept thinking of Su Tian's eager voice on the phone yesterday and today.

In this world, when all of one's blood relatives have passed away and only two siblings are left, they will hope that the other has friends to keep them company and no longer be alone.

No matter what the definition of this friend is, at least he has such a person by his side.

"Well... I can't go there empty-handed. Since we're going to visit some kids, let's go to the toy store and buy some small gifts."

Most of the things girls like are stuffed toys, Barbie dolls and the like. Xu Yun bought a whole set of Barbie dolls from a domestic famous brand children's toy store, spending more than 5,000 yuan. But when he arrived at the Zhong family's old house and looked at the gifts that filled half of the living room, he felt that the gifts he bought were too simple.

When Su Tian saw her brother coming with a girl, she didn't recognize who she was at first. After they introduced each other, she remembered that she was Xu Yun, who is currently the deputy editor-in-chief and administrative manager in Yao Ran's studio.

"Oh! I was thinking he looked familiar. We even had dinner together once."

Xu Yun smiled and said, "Yes, the university cafeteria, a place I haven't been to for many years. I didn't expect that I could fulfill a wish after so many years."

Then, Xu Yun handed over the gift.

"Don't be disgusted by the hasty preparation."

"How could that be?" It can be seen that the surprise in Su Tian's eyes is genuine. "To be honest, I like Barbie dolls the most. My son Shushu also likes me. Her father bought several foreign brands, but none of them are as complete as yours, and the colors are also beautiful!"

As soon as he finished speaking, someone came in from outside. It was Shen Chaoxi and Shang Zhuoming.

Shen Chaoxi was inevitably surprised when she saw Xu Yun, but when she saw Su Yi holding the child in a strange posture not far away, she understood everything.

The gift had been delivered a few days ago. Today, Shen Chaoxi came empty-handed. He was happy and curious when he saw the Barbie doll in Su Tian's hand.

"Wow! I like it too. Shushu is still young, so why don't you bear the pain and let me play with it first, Sister Su Tian?"

Su Tian hugged the Barbie doll in her arms.

"No, that won't work. If you like it, ask your Jiang Han to buy it for you, but you can't steal it from me!"

The two adults were quarreling like children over a gift.

"Besides, your sister is in your belly, she can't play with you now!"

Xu Yun interrupted at this time. "Okay Chao Xi, can I buy you one too?"

Shen Chaoxi nodded: "Okay, keep your word!"

Xu Yun laughed at her: "Why are you so impatient? You haven't even confirmed whether the child is a boy or a girl yet, and you're already blackmailing your subordinates?"

Shen Chaoxi pretended to be angry and pulled Xu Yun: "My second child must be a girl!"

Su Tian felt that Shen Chaoxi was a little difficult today.

"What if it's not?"

"If not, we'll just go back to the furnace and do it again!"

Shang Jianghan met Zhong Shuoxi in the courtyard. Just after they exchanged a few words and stepped over the rosewood threshold, he heard his wife say these four words. He walked in and nodded to Su Yi, then patted Shen Chaoxi's buttocks with his big hand.

"You dare to say anything!"

His words were full of helpless doting. Shen Chaoxi stuck out his tongue where he couldn't see, making Su Tian and Xu Yun laugh.

After a while, Zhongli came over with the children. Today was a small gathering. The elders in the family did not attend. There were only seven or eight of them. They prepared some of their favorite foods and had a pretty comfortable time.

Shang Zhuoming likes Xu Yun the most. When Xu Yun is around to play with him, Zhongli, his godmother, has to stand aside.

Su Tian took advantage of no one paying attention and pulled Shen Chaoxi aside to whisper something to her.

"I didn't even have a chance to ask my brother, when did they get together?"

Shen Chaoxi said that they were neighbors on the upper and lower floors, and then touched Su Tian's arm mysteriously.

"Your brother is probably going to find a sister-in-law for you. She might not be bad!"

The implication of this statement was too obvious, and Su Tian was not stupid, so she naturally understood the meaning.

"Is this true? If it's Xu Yun, I agree!"

Naturally, Shen Chaoxi would not be bad if he could find someone who was useful/at ease to him.

Shen Chaoxi laughed at her impatience: "What's the use of your agreement? It depends on whether Brother Su Yi is proactive enough. However, I didn't expect Brother Su Yi to bring Xu Yun here today. It seems that the thousand-year-old iron tree is about to bloom!"

Zhongli coaxed the child to sleep and put him in the bedroom. When she came out, she saw the two of them huddled together talking and laughing, so she came over too.

"Xixi, are Xu Yun and Su Yige virgin boyfriends?"

Shen Chaoxi and Su Tian looked at each other, and the next second they gave Zhongli a thumbs up.

Zhongli was like he had discovered a new world and was about to go and make trouble with Xu Yun, but was stopped by Su Tian.

"Please stop it. Don't scare people away because it's something that hasn't been made public yet."

Zhongli thought it made sense, but he still made a sarcastic remark.

"Hey! We're a family, but you're already protecting us?"

Su Tian is about to go to tickle Zhongli.

"Who are we from? Aren't you my sister-in-law? We are still a family after all!"

After laughing and joking, they finished their lunch. The one with the children took them a nap, and Xu Yun was the only one left without a child.

It was her first time to visit this quaint courtyard, so she walked around the yard.

Just after passing a small archway, I saw Su Yi riding a Laolaile tricycle from somewhere.

The car stopped beside Xu Yun.

Su Yi nodded his chin at him.

"Come up, I'll take you around the Su family's old house."

The Su family’s old house is actually right next door, but Xu Yun’s left leg has not fully healed yet, so he can’t walk for a long time.
