Chapter 525 - 256: Killing Intent Arises
Su Jiameng swiftly caught the Little Bear, pinned him onto her lap, pulled down his pants, and delivered three spanks, a series of actions so practiced it seemed like she had rehearsed them a million times. Then she sternly warned, "Next time you misbehave, the punishment will be increased!"
Increasing punishment and such... From the first time she started disciplining her little brother until now, the number of spanks has never actually increased, okay? Huaixi calmly watched his little brother squeeze out two tears with practiced ease, feeling so bored he wanted to roll his eyes skyward.
In order to combat mom’s ultimate bamboo shoot stir-fry move, the little brother, who never liked using his brain, thought so hard he nearly broke his head, only to eventually follow the principle of ’you are what you eat’. After years of eating various animal’s rump meat, he finally developed such skill... Thinking of it made one feel drunk.
He stepped forward to pull his sniffling brother away, who was trying to pull up his pants, to avoid mom getting angry again and executing round two of violence.
"I still haven’t got my pants on..." Huaifeng said with a pout, clutching his pants tightly.
Huaixi smirked and said, "Hop along, mom still has serious business to discuss with the two aunties."
Huaifeng: "...QAQ..." Is this really my own brother? Why has he turned black-hearted after just a few days?
Su Jiameng angrily let down her rolled-up sleeves, seeing Zhu Mengtong and Qiu Yexuan standing aside watching the drama, her face turned dark. As they say, family shame shouldn’t be aired in public, and here was her Little Bear disgracing the family in front of outsiders—truly unbearable!
Su Jiameng regained a normal expression and seemed to have regained her composure, "What business do you have with me?"
Zhu Mengtong shifted her gaze to Qiu Yexuan, signaling her to speak. Honestly, if Qiu Yexuan hadn’t hinted on the way who they were meeting with, she still wouldn’t know who she was supposed to see... Truly surprising.
"Miss Su, is it? I’m Qiu Yexuan, the director of the institute affiliated with the Xilena First Affiliated School. A few days ago I received a very interesting dissection task, and I think Miss Su might be quite interested..." Qiu Yexuan got straight to the point, drawing Zhu Mengtong’s suspicious glance. To know, this task was entirely confidential, yet she... actually revealed it.
Su Jiameng slightly furrowed her brows, although she couldn’t sense any malice from Qiu Yexuan, it wasn’t exactly friendly either. Plus, they had connections with the Military Department—these two teaming up to visit her was definitely not about idle chit-chat! Thinking about this, she stepped aside and said to them, "It’s not convenient to talk here, let’s move to a different place."
Originally, taking the two to her own room would have been best; her room had a small living room and was secure enough. But alas, her Little Bear had caused a ruckus in her room; even if she had the thickest skin, she couldn’t possibly lead two people there! With feminine hygiene products plastered on one wall like little angel art, she was truly unable to talk... Completely embarrassing!
Su Jiameng chose a spot that wasn’t bad either—it was a lounge she usually used for naps. Of course... Since she frequently traveled outside, this room was already openly commandeered by the two little brats. She locked the door to prevent the little rascals from barging in and explained to the two, "Those two kids don’t tend to listen. If they barge in, it wouldn’t be good..."
Qiu Yexuan sat on the sofa, the soft and comfortable feel making her quite satisfied. "Now, we can discuss business without worries. I wonder how’s Miss Su’s view on what I said earlier—does it pique your interest? Oh, see my horrible memory... I haven’t even told you who got dissected, so you naturally couldn’t answer..."
Su Jiameng watched her leisurely demeanor, seemingly unrestrained in a strange environment, and inwardly furrowed her brows.
"That person originally was the eldest son of the Shangguan Family. Of course... when I dissected him, the condition was really... hard to describe in words. I think Miss Su should know who he is, right? Shangguan Ruiqi, according to external rumors, is a hero who got killed by villains while undercover. Although, that’s just the official statement; the real story, Miss Su probably knows."
When Su Jiameng heard "Shangguan", her hand, which was about to make tea, abruptly halted. The things Qiu Yexuan said at the beginning vaguely gave her some premonition, but actually being confirmed still made her somewhat lose composure.
"Shangguan Ruiqi? I do have some impression of him; his unruly daughter almost killed my twins..." Su Jiameng resumed her calm tone, though internally, only she knew her true thoughts.
