Su Yu looked indifferently at the man who was fuming with anger as she heartlessly said, "I told you, you just won't do!"
"Damn it!" Pang Ming was angry as he argued his case. "What right do you have to say that I won't do? You're clearly the one with the issues, okay? What kind of illness do you have? I've asked the top gigolos in all the nightclubs in Feng City who have met so many women, but none had ever seen anyone like you. I've only seen your kind in one place!"
"And where is that?" asked Su Yu curiously.
"In the novel 'The Overbearing President Falls in Love with Me'!"
Su Yu was confused.
Pang Ming looked at her delicate and dazed little face, and the anger in his heart dissipated by half. All he needed was a big gulp of cold water to cool down. Then, he waved his hand dismissively like a deflated ball and said, "It's normal that you don't know about romance web novels." They were usually melodramatic and with exaggerated storylines. However, the male protagonist's character was too similar to Su Yu - both could not be touched by the opposite sex, and whoever managed to do so would be killed.
By the time he was done with his thoughts, Pang Ming noticed that Su Yu had already packed the medication she needed so he decided to drop the topic. With worry, he said, "Don't take too much of this medicine. If you really can't sleep at night, try another method. It won't be good if you become too reliant or immune to it."
"I know," said Su Yu indifferently.
This was not the first time Su Yu had taken this medicine. She knew what to do, so she agreed. She stuffed the medicine into her shoulder bag and was about to leave.
But Pang Ming hurriedly stopped her and asked, "Where are you going?"
"I'm going home," said Su Yu casually.
Pang Ming's eyebrows immediately furrowed as he asked, "Do you still have a home? Didn't the Su family kick you out?" Then, he remembered the call he had with Su Yu earlier and asked, "You're going back to stay with your biological parents?"
Su Yu didn't like how he was getting so close to her so she took half a step back and said, "Yes."
Pang Ming noticed her body language and his eyes darkened. However, there was nothing he could do so he pretended to be oblivious. "You didn't pick up my calls just now because you were having dinner with your biological parents. You've already seen them, what kind of people are they?"
Su Yu thought for a moment, then slowly said, "I didn't meet them for that long so it's hard to say. I saw my biological father and I think my biological mother has passed away. I didn't ask why but I'll find out soon. And I met my grandpa too. He's quite good to me."
"Grandpa?" When Pang Ming heard this, he understood that Su Yu had acknowledged her grandfather more than her father.
Pang Ming's heart sank once more as he asked seriously, "Do you really intend to stay with them and investigate your own background?"
Su Yu didn't understand why he kept asking the same question, but she still patiently said, "Yes, I at least need to know who I am and where I came from."
What an irrefutable response!
No matter how much Pang Ming wanted to take her away, there was nothing he could do. In the end, he simply asked, "What about after that? Are you going to return to Qiufeng County with your biological father?"
"They were originally from Feng City," said Su Yu.
Pang Ming doubtfully asked, "From Feng City? Didn't you say that your biological father was from Qiufeng County?"
Su Yu couldn't explain it either. "I only know as much as what I've told you. Moreover, it was Su Weiguo who said they were from Qiufeng County. Obviously, that's not the case."
"Do you know your biological father's name?" asked Pang Ming.
Su Yu remembered his name being mentioned during lunch earlier but she can't recall it fully. "Um ... I only know that his surname is Bai..."
"Bai?" Pang Ming was a little shocked. There was a big family with the surname Bai in Feng City with a monstrous amount of power, and the older generation had some connections with the Pei family in Yu City.
But... it couldn't be that Su Yu's biological father was connected to the Bai family...
While Pang Ming's thoughts were running wild, Su Yu had already packed up her things. She took out another medicine bottle from her bag and threw it to him.
Pang Ming instinctively caught the bottle.
Su Yu carried her shoulder bag lazily and said, "This is the amount for this month."
Two years ago, a magical medicine had been circulating in the black market of China. It was said that its effect was comparable to that of an immortal medicine. Eating it could not only prolong one's life, but it could also improve one's Qi and focus one's mind. It could even change one's physique.
As soon as this medicine appeared in the black market, it was fought over by all the major forces. However, only three pills were sold in the black market every month, and the one who bid the highest price would get them. All sorts of people attended to monthly auction just to witness such an event.
