Chapter 341: Chapter 162: Who is Playing Whom?!
Su Huai’s atmosphere during treatment was incredibly suffocating.
It should have been a simple matter of Lan applying some iodine on him, but then Andy came along, and both of them looked at him as if they were staring at a curly-haired baboon that had evolved the ability to speak.
At first, he pretended not to see it, resisting and enduring.
But Lan kept asking questions without seeking clear answers, beating around the bush, which was truly annoying.
"Did you get into a fight with some outsider?"
"Yeah."
"What did that person look like?"
"Didn’t pay attention."
"I did catch a glimpse from a distance, felt a bit familiar."
"Really? Who did it resemble?"
"Not really anyone in particular... Why did you start fighting?"
"He’s been getting too close and observing several times, I felt he had ill intentions towards Gugu... and he swears like a sailor."
Although he had guessed who it was, that didn’t mean Su Huai would brag about it, quite the opposite, his answers were tight-lipped, firmly placing himself on the side of righteousness.
Andy and Lan exchanged glances, their implications becoming even more obvious.
"Is there a possibility... that the person approached you for a different reason, not necessarily with ill intentions?"
Su Huai calmly replied, "There is, but when he didn’t explain and instead provoked me, the reason didn’t matter anymore."
The two of them were impressed.
It felt like Mr. Su was too fierce, he hadn’t even started dating the Miss yet, and he had already given her father a beating...
Such a thing, unheard of amongst family!
No matter how justified, it’s not acceptable... do you still want to date the Miss or not?!
Su Huai didn’t really want to.
Dating Gu Jiuyue was too troublesome, and he didn’t really need any help from a family background.
Without anyone’s assistance, his development might be slower, but no one held him back, leaving him free and happy.
So Gu was important to Su Huai, but Gu Tongshu was not, so what if he offended him?
This was the point they couldn’t understand, nor could Gu Tongshu, hence he could only attribute the incident to Su Huai having a strong and complex personality.
Having talked to this extent, they couldn’t hint at anything more, so they switched to gossiping.
"Who got more hurt?"
"Of course it was him."
Su Huai raised an eyebrow, deliberately revealing a detail that allowed for wild guessing, "If I hadn’t been too lazy to dodge, with his speed of movement, it would have been hard for him to even touch me."
Andy sensed something and immediately asked, "Why didn’t you want to dodge?"
Su Huai smiled meaningfully, "Gugu was there."
So you mean if the Miss wasn’t there, you’d have knocked Mr. Gu out cold?
Lan had given Su Huai massages before, and at that time, she believed it.
"Indeed, your muscle density and the robustness of your ligaments are comparable to those of an athlete. He is just a regular, healthy middle-aged man; the difference is too great."
Andy was focused on a completely different aspect, "It seems, you were quite considerate..."
What’s called an unspoken understanding amongst adults?
This is it.
Andy appreciated Su Huai a lot, therefore she added an extra piece of advice, "You were quite impulsive while fighting, but now you seem to have matured... Would you recognize that person if you saw them again?"
"Doubtful."
Su Huai shook his head decisively, "I can’t even remember what he looks like now."
"That’s good." Andy patted the young man’s shoulder with a knowing smile and added the final line, "If it’s not necessary, it’s best to forget."
Su Huai responded with a light smile, "Yeah, keep things separate, turn the page at night."
Such sensibility!
As both praised him internally, they wondered: How could such a mature kid do this?
Maybe it’s just that Mr. Gu was really infuriating...
Right at that moment, the infuriating Mr. Gu had taken a speedboat for his return trip.
"Hey, my dear, dad came here for work and took some time out just to see you. Since you’re having fun, I’m relieved. Now I have to return to Sanya for a meeting, I won’t join you for dinner..."
Gu Jiuyue cut to the chase, "Your face is quite swollen, isn’t it?"
"..."
Gu Tongshu was gasping for breath but couldn’t utter a single fuck.
In the end, he could only chuckle dryly, trying to play it cool, "How could that be... Dad’s strong and exercises every day. If it wasn’t for the kid’s sneak attack... Hmph! I wish I hadn’t held back!"
Mr. Gu knew how to save face, but unfortunately, Gu Jiuyue knew him all too well.
"Okay, don’t hold back next time."
What?!
There’s a next time?!
Gu Tongshu was truly struck by his darling daughter’s response—he knew girls tended to favor young rebels, but he hadn’t realized it would be to this extent.
All was lost, his cotton-padded jacket had a leak!
"Haha, there definitely won’t be a next time. Dad wouldn’t be so childish. Su is pretty good, next time we meet, I want to have a drink with him, have a good chat."
God knows how he managed to hold back the bitterness in his heart without showing any of his true emotions; anyway, it was impressive.
Gu Jiuyue believed most of it, but still felt that these two were naturally at odds, so she refused, "No need, you two better see each other less from now on."
"Okay, okay, I’ll listen to you! Then have fun, honey, daddy’s going..."
"Yeah, bye!"
After hanging up the phone, Gu Tongshu’s expression turned cold, and he immediately instructed Wang Gang, "Find me the best combat coach!"
"Got it, boss."
Wang Gang noted it down earnestly and then confirmed, "Do I need to consider the city where the venue is?"
"No." Gu Tongshu grit his teeth, seething with anger, "Set up a professional team that follows me every day!"
Ah, he was taking it seriously now.
Gu Tongshu in this state had a nickname, Gu Lang.
Ferocious, cunning, and vengeful.
Wang Gang subconsciously shrank his neck, as if he could feel the chilling punch coming...
