Surrounded by the Billionaire's Deep Doting-Chapter 365 - 332: Damn, What an Idiot!

Bai Shunyuan was a bit dumbfounded, as if a bucket of cold water was poured over him, but instead of cooling his temper, it headed straight for his head!

He got up, went upstairs, returned to his room, and never looked back.

Shan Mingxu raised an eyebrow, pointed at Bai Shunyuan’s back, and said to Su Jin, "He... got angry, huh..."

Su Jin blinked, "It seems so..."

Shan Mingxu chuckled softly.

"What are you laughing at?"

Su Jin still hadn’t figured out what she’d said to make Bai Shunyuan walk away like he wished he could stomp through the floor.

Over there, she glanced up to see Shan Mingxu smiling mischievously.

"Cough, cough, nothing."

Shan Mingxu quickly said with a smile, "Su, you didn’t mention what you saw at the gate that day to anyone else, did you?"

Su Jin replied lightly, "Not yet."

"Let’s discuss it, how about you just forget everything you saw that day?"

Su Jin gave Shan Mingxu a glance, "If you didn’t bring it up, I might have already forgotten."

Seeing Shan Mingxu momentarily blocked, Su Jin couldn’t help but explain, "I don’t know why you’re hiding the military uniform, but that’s your business. I’m not someone who meddles in other people’s affairs, of course... I admit, your..."

"What?"

"The cat-like emblem badge you took off from the uniform, I’m quite curious about it."

Shan Mingxu sighed internally; if she hadn’t seen that badge, he wouldn’t have to worry.

"Hmm... but I’m only a bit curious. Since you care so much, I won’t ask then. It’s probably a military secret..."

Su Jin smiled at Shan Mingxu, "Don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone."

Shan Mingxu had only known Su Jin for two days, but seeing her look him straight in the eye while saying this.

He truly felt at ease...

She wouldn’t say a thing.

He breathed a sigh of relief, smiling at Su Jin, "Thank you, and I apologize for being harsh with you that day."

Su Jin waved her hand, "No need. You’re a soldier, the whole country relies on you for protection. Such a small matter, forget it."

Shan Mingxu brushed his hair, feeling comfortable speaking with this girl.

No pretentiousness, no pretense, not acting coy, not showing off.

Just... pure thoughts spoken as they came, with no twists and turns.

No wonder Ming Lang could chat with her for so long.

"By the way, is there any snack you like? When you come over to play later, I’ll have the maid prepare some."

"Anything is fine."

"Not picky?"

"Not picky."

"Hmm, alright then."

After Shan Mingxu agreed, he said, "But it’s quite surprising that a girl likes playing ’King of Fighters’. Don’t you think it’s... hmm... simple and violent, and a bit bloody?"

"That’s fake, isn’t it?"

Shan Mingxu raised an eyebrow, unable to refute.

Fake...

Fake...

Fake...

The adrenaline-fueled fighting game he and Ming Lang had been obsessed with all this time, staying up many late nights until they couldn’t extricate themselves as they watched the character’s health bars on the screen deplete, making them feel like they were dying.

Every punch and kick felt like it hit them directly...

To Su Jin, it was just... fake.

"What’s wrong?"

Su Jin asked when she saw him lost in thought, with a not-so-good expression.

"Then, why do you like playing it?"

"Hmm... aren’t such games used for... venting emotions?"

Su Jin said, making a fist gesture and punching twice.

"Oh, you boys seem particularly obsessed with such games, hmm..."

Su Jin quickly changed her words, giving Shan Mingxu an easy out.

However, Shan Mingxu couldn’t take the out...

"But this game does have its benefits. It can exercise hand speed and reaction ability. The latest version released last year seemed to have updated quite a few skill points, making it slightly more complex to play, right?"

Shan Mingxu nodded quickly, "Yes, the skill points are much more complex now. You have to calculate timing, steps, attack strength, defense offset ability, and..."

...

Bai Shunyuan, who went upstairs earlier, actually didn’t enter his room. Instead, he stood at the stairway watching the two downstairs...

Talking and laughing...

The way Shan Mingxu and Su Jin hit it off chatting was even more infuriating than Ming Lang and her!

Bai Shunyuan clenched his fists.

He secretly decided to use the "King of Fighters" game they both excelled at tonight to defeat them completely!

By dinnertime, Yin Shixiu and his group returned to the Yin Family villa.

Now Shuangshuang and Huanghuang loved walking by themselves, their little bodies swaying like two penguins.

"Hehehe!"

Shuangshuang in front, Prince Huang behind.

Shuangshuang strutted, taking a few steps and turning back to look at Su Xiaomeng, as if everyone in the hall should make way for her.

The little girl felt extremely impressive.

"Shuang’er, watch your step!"

Su Xiaomeng was afraid of her habit of taking one step and turning back three times.

Just as she spoke, the worrisome event happened; the little girl turned and bumped straight into Guo Tong’s leg as she descended the stairs.

"Oh dear..."

Shuangshuang let out a cry, unsure who she learned this expression from.

Su Xiaomeng thought, this is it!

Shuangshuang is pretentious; surely, she’ll cry from the pain of this fall!

Unexpectedly, Shuangshuang sat on the ground, not sure if she was stunned or what, blinked her eyes around, then puffed her cheeks and struggled to get up.

She touched her own backside with her small hand.

Turning around, she saw Su Xiaomeng’s worried and tense face...

Suddenly, "My bum hurts... roar roar..."

She giggled as she spoke, while rubbing her backside, wobbling her little body, limping mischievously toward Xiao Meng.

Su Xiaomeng broke into a cold sweat.

Quickly, she picked up the little girl, smiling lightly, "Honestly, you need to watch where you’re going."

"Hehehe..."

Shuangshuang wrapped her arms around Su Xiaomeng’s neck, probably feeling that her majestic demeanor was quite embarrassing with her sudden fall.

She giggled and buried her little head into Su Xiaomeng’s neck, refusing to lift it up, showing some coyness.

Xiaomeng’s heart was all hanging over Shuangshuang, actually forgetting that the little girl had bumped into someone just now.

"Xiaomeng, this child is so young, you must keep a closer eye on her."

Guo Tong said in a heartfelt tone, then laid both hands symbolically over her own little belly, "It’s not only your child who is important, right?"

Su Xiaomeng’s expression stiffened for a moment before she said, "Aunt, I’m really sorry."

Guo Tong looked at Su Xiaomeng, "It’s fine to dote on your child but you mustn’t spoil them. Everyone here is a relative, and children should behave properly instead of running around recklessly and bumping into people, which is quite awkward."

Su Xiaomeng initially felt quite apologetic, but upon hearing this, her Aunt surprisingly seemed to teach her how to educate her child...

Her temper flared up a bit, "Fine... but also kindly ask Aunt to walk without her eyes on the top of her head. If Shuang’er fell, it’s not a big deal but if you got hurt, that’s more unfortunate."

"Little Aunt, how could you say that, the little girl bumped into Xiao Tong, and it’s Xiao Tong’s fault?"

Yin Bowen was fond of Guo Tong, fiercely defending her now.

Ah Su, who witnessed Guo Tong coming down from the stairs and standing there without budging as she saw Shuangshuang approaching, couldn’t help but feel displeased with this potential new Madam of the Yin Household.

Instantly, she lost any good impression of her.

"You know that’s not what I meant, why twist it then?"

Yin Bowen took a deep breath, "Little Aunt, although you are my elder, but... Xiao Tong is your elder too, isn’t it a bit rude to speak to your Aunt this way?"

Su Xiaomeng took a deep breath, not wanting to argue with the couple.

It’s the New Year, fighting brings bad luck.

Take a step back and the sea is wide, take a step back and the sea is wide...

Su Xiaomeng silently chanted this twice and then said, "Sorry, I’ll surely be careful next time."

"Xiaomeng, I know you feel uneasy seeing me at Yin Family."

Su Xiaomeng just turned away when Guo Tong suddenly said this.

Xiaomeng didn’t quite understand, was there anything uncomfortable about Guo Tong appearing at Yin Family?

At most, it was the fear of her being with Yin Bowen and possibly not walking the right path, embarrassing the family’s face in the future.

"Previously, you looked down on me, didn’t want me to come to Beijing to develop, but by some accident, I ended up with Bowen, surely there’s a grudge in your heart. But after all, I am your Aunt, we were originally relatives and now even closer. Shouldn’t you... be more magnanimous?"

It was not just the two of them, the entire Yin Family was gathered here.

Guo Tong suddenly speaking so seriously would inevitably draw attention from others.

Su Xiaomeng looked at Guo Tong, completely baffled.

Thinking solely four words in her mind: damn it, idiot!

What’s with this innocent white lotus act, having delusions of persecution?

Preventing her from coming to develop in Beijing?!

Damn it, she wanted to join Shixiu Company, but Shixiu didn’t let her, that equals not letting her come to develop in Beijing?

Furthermore, even if she did think this way, shouldn’t such matters be discussed privately? To bring it up in front of the entire family, what does that mean?

"Aunt, you misunderstand, I don’t mean that."

Su Xiaomeng quickly replied.

"Xiaomeng, there’s nothing wrong with admitting, we haven’t interacted much, had conflicts, prejudices, to speak openly about it makes interactions smoother in the future, right? I’m not asking you to apologize or assume responsibility..."

"I said I don’t mean it! You—"

Su Xiaomeng hadn’t finished speaking when Guo Tong, with a seemingly sad face, squeezed Yin Bowen’s hand tightly, sighed, "Forget it, such matters are only known to yourself. If you say there’s none, then there’s none. In the future, let’s get along well..."

As Guo Tong stood to walk past Xiaomeng, unexpectedly Su Xiaomeng grabbed her arm.

"What are you doing?"

"Hold on a minute, clarify your words."

Su Xiaomeng said sternly.

Guo Tong frowned, "Talk if you want, but why use hands?"

Hearing Guo Tong shout, Yin Bowen immediately said, "Little Aunt, aren’t you letting go, Xiao Tong is pregnant!"
