The button was flipped open, revealing a piece of navy blue fabric underneath. Slim white fingers rested on the zipper, still trying to tug it down.
Su Chi: "…"
Seeing that the waist of Su Huanyi's trousers was sliding down, veins popped on his forehead as he said in a low voice, "Close your pants."
Su Huanyi smiled. "How can I pee when I'm dressed? You're so funny."
Su Chi didn't want to talk to him anymore. He was about to turn and walk away, but his arm was suddenly pulled. He was caught off guard and the cold water in the glass poured out, splashing on Su Huanyi's face.
Su Huanyi was stunned, and so was Su Chi.
Su Huanyi's face was completely wet, water droplets were on his long raven-like eyelashes, and his eyes were as clear as if they had been moistened with water. He was staring at Su Chi, his face crimson, and the air smelled of wine.
Su Chi held the man back a bit. "Have you been out drinking?"
Su Huanyi blinked slowly. "Oh, hi!"
"…"
Su Chi had a headache. He stretched out two noble fingers to lift Su Huanyi's trousers, which were about to slide down his crotch, and then pulled the person to the door.
When they were walking to the door, the half-closed door was suddenly pushed open with a bang, and the two almost collided with the person at the door!
The person outside the door was surprised. "Big Brother?"
Su Huanyi looked up and saw a tall figure standing in front of him. He was about the same height as Su Chi, but a little more robust, with hard and firm features, giving him a straightforward look.
He pulled Su Chi, his brain still muddled. "Who's this?"
Su Jianchen's face instantly darkened by a few degrees.
He came back from a business trip today and arrived home after nine o'clock in the evening. He heard a commotion in the kitchen, and when he came over to take a look, he bumped into that scheming foster brother, tugging at his big brother.
Su Jianchen had always been straightforward. "What's he up to again?"
"He's drunk."
Although Su Huanyi was drunk, he could also hear that this person was cold toward him. His small mouth instantly turned away, no longer looking at Su Jianchen for a second time, unilaterally hugging Su Chi. "Let's pee, don't bring him."
Su Jianchen's gaze dropped down and he quickly looked away, disgusted. "Vulgar!"
Su Huanyi looked up and glared at him.
The crimson face was wet with water, his eyes were bright and fiery, and a few strands of dark bangs hung down over his forehead and eyebrows. Water stains snaked down the corners of his drooping eyes, like a trail of tears.
But he didn't look like he was about to cry out; he was just angry.
Su Jianchen froze for a moment.
Su Chi pursed his lips and let Su Jianchen go out first. "Don't bother with the drunkard. I'll take him to the toilet."
Su Jianchen turned sideways nervously. For a moment just now, he was wondering if he was too fierce.
That's weird. Is drunkenness contagious?
For a white lotus like Su Huanyi, there was no need to be soft-hearted.
Su Huanyi was carried to the bathroom by Su Chi while his small mouth blathering. "Who is he? So annoying. I don't like him." Fierce and brainless.
No one had ever been so mean to him since he was a child.
"I don't think you like anyone." Su Chi shoved him into the bathroom. "You're quite honest when you're drunk."
Su Huanyi directly reached for the waist of his trousers. Su Chi turned to go out the door and heard him laugh. "But I like you very much."
Su Chi came out of the bathroom and stood in the living room in a daze. Su Jianchen had not gone, and when he saw Su Chi, he took two steps to meet him. "Why do you care about him?"
Su Chi regained his senses and curled his fingers in his trouser pocket. "How many times have I told you to keep your emotions in check, Second Brother?"
Su Jianchen was tall and sturdy but not as imposing as his big brother. "I didn't do it in front of our parents.…"
Su Chi patted him. "Go back and rest."
Su Jianchen stared at him for a few seconds, then said, "Big Brother, why do I think you don't hate him as much as you did before? I've only been away on business for less than half a month. What happened?"
Su Chi didn't speak.
Su Jianchen's voice thickened, "Big Brother, don't let him fool you!"
Su Chi laughed, "Is your big brother that stupid?"
Only then did Su Jianchen sigh with relief: that was right, even if anyone in the Su family was stupid, his elder brother wouldn't be.
Su Huanyi woke up with a terrible headache the next day.
He had never gotten drunk before, so this was his first time experiencing a hangover. His head was foggy and his mouth was dry.
He was now a dried, salted fish.
It was already bright outside the window, and the light fell through the white curtains, casting diamond-shaped prisms on the floor and the bed, clearly not the weather for seven in the morning.
Su Huanyi found his mobile phone and saw that it was half-past eight. There were also a dozen messages from Sun Heyu and Zhou Qingcheng on WeChat.
[Sun Heyu]: "Are you home?" [Missed call]
[Sun Heyu]: "???? Are you home yet, or are you already asleep?" [Missed call] [Missed call]
[Sun Heyu]: "Okay, I've asked your big brother. Get some rest. We'll talk tomorrow."
Damn it! Su Huanyi instantly sobered up several degrees. Sun Heyu went to ask Su Chi! He didn't say anything else, right?
Zhou Qingcheng had also sent over several messages.
[Zhou Qingcheng]: "I'm a little dizzy now. How could that happen..."
[Zhou Qingcheng]: "Where are you? Sun Heyu said he couldn't reach you." [Missed Call].
[Zhou Qingcheng]: "No way, you're not drunk, are you? I told you you were drunk and you didn't believe me."
Su Huanyi, "…"
He said it wasn't a drunken remark!
Su Huanyi sent a message back to the two of them and only then did he slowly get up and wash up.
The events of last night were vague, he only remembered that he was a little unconscious in the taxi. In a trance, he thought he was going back to the high school building.
Later, he entered the door and went to get some more water. It seems that he met Su Chi, and then went to the bathroom. The water spilled somehow, and then he went to the bathroom..…
What? Wait, how come there are two times I "went to the bathroom"?
Su Huanyi couldn't understand it. He then reassured himself that he must have mixed up his memories. He wasn't a water pump. How could he have such a powerful high-frequency output system?
He took a shower in the bathroom and came out as a fresh salted fish again!
When he came downstairs, there was no one in the dining room. Wu Ma saw him and immediately brought out eggs and soup, saying, "Sir told me to keep them."
Su Huanyi suddenly felt as warm as the spring breeze. He took it and asked, "Where is my big brother?"
He wanted to test Su Chi's attitude. He wouldn't want to go back to square one just because he was drunk.
Wu Ma said, "He's gone to the company with the second young master."
Su Huanyi was stunned. "Second Young... Brother is back?"
"He came back last night. Didn't you run into each other?"
Su Huanyi was stunned again: No way! No, right?
He remembered that the book portrayed the Su family's second son, Su Jianchen, as straightforward and emotionally outgoing, the polar opposite of Su Chi. And that he had a sturdy physique, him just standing there was like blocking a door.
Plus in the novel, Su Jianchen punched the original owner to the sky!
He couldn't even eat a bite of his breakfast when he thought that this punch might land on his head.
The more Su Huanyi thought about it, the more he felt that something had happened yesterday, but the memory just wouldn't enter his head!
After breakfast, it was almost nine o'clock. He sent a text message to Su Chi, but the other party did not return it, so he simply asked the driver to take him to Su Chi's company.
He had to find out what had happened before he faced Su Jianchen.
The company was at the group's headquarters. There was no traffic at this hour, so it would take less than an hour to get there.
The security guard didn't know Su Huanyi, but he recognised the Su family's car and immediately bent down to welcome him in.
Su Huanyi still remembered to maintain the decency of the Su family and walked to the reception desk with a dignified presence. "May I ask which floor Su Chi is?"
The receptionist was stunned for a moment by the inexplicable rise in aura. "The director is on the top floor. I'll call the internal line for you and ask. May I ask what your name is, sir?"
"Su Huanyi."
Crap, the last name is Su! The receptionist was shocked and rushed to the phone.
Three minutes after the call, a man dressed in formal clothes came out of the lift on the side of the lobby and went straight to Su Huanyi, saying, "Young Master Su, the director is still in a meeting, so I'll take you up first. I am Secretary Qin. You can call me Xiao Qin. "
Su Huanyi's skin tingled at his "you". As he took the elevator upstairs, he couldn't help but ask, "Do you talk to my big brother like that?"
Xiao Qin's face was straight. "That's how I spoke the first two days before my payday."
"…"
Su Huanyi looked at him meaningfully and said, "You have a lot of precious qualities in you."
Knowledgeable and straightforward.
The director's office was on the twelfth floor, and there were only two offices on this floor, one for Su Chi and one for Secretary Qin.
Su Huanyi followed Xiao Qin to Su Chi's office, and in his mind, he couldn't help but think of many plots that could be in presidential novels.
"Secretary Qin, does my big brother have a pretty female secretary?"
"He must be very popular. Is there any office romance?"
"Do you think there is a little demon... beauty in the company who could be my sister-in-law?"
Secretary Qin said, "Young Master, you're speaking very much like a grandmother checking up on him."
Su Huanyi stopped talking. This secretary's thinking was quite strange.
Su Chi's office was spacious and bright, with floor-to-ceiling windows taking up the entire wall. The entire office was decorated in the same simple and stylish style as his bedroom.
The left side of the desk was a small living room. Sofas and coffee tables were available, on the right side was a large bookshelf against the wall,a mahogany table, on which some documents were placed, and a beautiful globe.
Su Huanyi looked at it. "Is he trying to conquer the world?"
Secretary Qin, "It's to enhance the style."
Su Huanyi looked back at him. "If you get fired by my brother in the future, do you want to consider coming to me?"
"…"
As the two of them were talking, the office door was pushed open. Secretary Qin immediately stood to the side with his hands down. "Boss."
Su Chi glanced at him and then turned to Su Huanyi. "What brings you here?"
There were outsiders, so Su Huanyi couldn't say it explicitly. He buried his head shyly. "I missed you."
Su Chi, "…"
Secretary Qin, "…"
Secretary Qin turned around and went out in one fluid motion. "I won't bother the two of you."
The office door closed with a click and silence returned to the room. Su Chi loosened his collar. "Okay, there's no one else, let's talk."
The clumsy excuse was quickly demolished, and Su Huanyi was not embarrassed. "Big Brother, I was drunk when I came back yesterday."
Su Chi sneered. "I could tell."
As soon as he sneered, Su Huanyi felt that things were not good. "I didn't do anything, did I? I heard that Second Brother also came back yesterday. I didn't run into him, did I?"
Su Chi held his gaze, he looked at the corners of his eyes, then at his open and closed mouth. "You don't remember?"
"I don't remember." He pressed on. "I didn't run into Second Brother, did I?"
Su Chi understood. "You made this trip specifically for the sake of Second Brother. Are you afraid of him?"
Su Huanyi smiled sarcastically. "Fortunately, you are both my beloved brothers. There is nothing to be afraid of."
"It seems you're only honest when you're drunk." Su Chi didn't know why he said that. He paused for a moment before returning to normal. "You ran into him, but you didn't recognise him when you were drunk."
Shit, he really ran into him!
He didn't think he would have recognised Su Jianchen even if he wasn't drunk.
Su Chi continued, "You said hello and parted ways."
Su Huanyi was relieved. There seemed to be no problem. "By the way, Big Brother, how come I remember going to the bathroom twice?"
Su Chi looked at him coldly. "You pee frequently and urgently."
"..." Su Huanyi, " Why do I think you're lying to me?"
"If you don't believe me, forget it."
"No, no!" Su Huanyi hurriedly explained, "I was afraid of offending Big Brother and Second Brother."
Su Chi grinned. "Why haven't you ever been afraid before?"
Su Huanyi shyly leaned over. "It's too early to mention it, I won't mention it."
Su Chi glanced at him but did not say anything else.
There was no other arrangement after his morning meeting.
The company's staff restaurant was already open at eleven o'clock, so Su Huanyi followed Su Chi to the restaurant to have lunch.
"Aren't you a director? Why do you have to go to the staff restaurant for lunch?"
"A director is also an employee of the company."
The two of them entered the elevator, and as the number of floors went down, Su Huanyi couldn't help but say, "Big Brother, why is your office on the top floor? It's not safe. It's not easy to evacuate in case of a fire or earthquake."
He said to the man, "You should stay at the best place to run away."
"Like the front desk?" Su Chi gave the option. "Or the underground car park?"
Su Huanyi, "…"
DING! There was a ring, and the elevator stopped on the third floor.
Su Huanyi was twisting his thoughts and holding the idea of building a "twelve-storey-high spinning slide" with Su Chi when the lift door opened.
Outside the door, a tall, rigid figure stood to the side. When he heard the elevator open, he turned his head, and his disgusted gaze fell on Su Huanyi.
