Chapter 12 - Chapter 12 Are they fighting again?

Su Nuannuan was startled, "Chaoxi, what are you talking about, how could I possibly..."

"At that time, the company faced a crisis and urgently needed an investment. That very night, I was set up, and the person behind it just happened to be the highly successful Xie Tianyin. The matter blew up so much, and for the sake of the company's reputation, he had no choice but to swallow this bitter pill in silence."

Su Chaoxi stared at Su Nuannuan, "Only mom, dad, and you knew about the company's situation at the time. If it wasn't you, could it be mom and dad?"

Yang Yingrong's heart raced with fear as she hurriedly said, "No matter who it was, the company's crisis has been overcome. Let's not bring this up again!"

"But, the crisis in the company was indeed alleviated because of that investment, right?" Su Chaoxi asked, "I should be considered a hero of the company, shouldn't I?"

Yang Yingrong was choked up, becoming somewhat annoyed, "For such a trivial matter, you want recognition so badly? Do we have to thank you as well? You really are an ingrate!"

"How would I dare," Su Chaoxi said with a bitter smile, looking towards Su Zhiguo, "I just feel that, since the company's crisis has passed and I also saved the company, why have you never treated me fairly? I thought that it was because you never knew, that's why you've been treating me this way..."

A look of embarrassment crossed Su Zhiguo's face, and his eyes blamed Yang Yingrong as he looked at her.

"This isn't our fault, if anyone's to blame, it can only be you!"

Yang Yingrong said uncomfortably, "That's because your sister Nuannuan is sensible and obedient, unlike you. Ever since you were young, you've been nothing but a slut, seducing men everywhere. If you hadn't thrown yourself at Xie Tianyin, this marriage would never have been yours."

"Alright, alright," Old Mrs. Su came out from within, rebuking, "The child has barely come home, what are you doing?"

Old Mrs. Su appeared especially enthusiastic, approaching Su Chaoxi with a beaming smile, "We heard about this morning's incident. You see, you've been married to Mr. Xie for several years now, isn't there anything you can't discuss properly? Why must you quarrel... What was it about this time?"

Every quarrel was about bringing gifts for her parents' family.

How could Old Mrs. Su not know that?

No wonder, her eyes sparkled with anticipation.

Su Chaoxi concealed the coldness in her eyes, plaintively saying, "Wasn't it because I saw my mom's discomfort with her lumbar spine? So, I bought a lumbar spine massager that cost a bit of money, and he scolded me for it."

Yang Yingrong's expression stiffened slightly, and a complex emotion instantly spread.

In the past, every time Su Chaoxi returned home, she would only bring money.

She would give hundreds and thousands, and once even three million in one go!

But to them, that couldn't compare to the comfort of Su Nuannuan's few caring words.

Su Chaoxi took out the lumbar spine massager from a pile of gifts at the door.

She said with a wry smile, "It's just eighty, but he complains that I'm always sending money home."

"Eight hundred thousand!?" Old Mrs. Su exclaimed, "What kind of expensive trinket costs that much?"

Su Chaoxi was always generous with her spending.

They naturally assumed it had cost eight hundred thousand.

Sure enough, even Yang Yingrong, with a darkened face, couldn't help but look over.

Su Chaoxi explained, "It's based on the principle of thermotherapy acupuncture, which can help with lumbar spine discomfort, and it was recommended by an old Chinese medicine doctor. It's a rare find, and I bought it without a second thought because I saw mom suffering."

Old Mrs. Su's face turned slightly dark, "Such a waste of money, your mother's back hasn't been well for a day or two, and it's not something that can be saved by some massager."

Yet, Yang Yingrong's expression softened quite a bit, looking at what Su Chaoxi held in her hands, her attitude finally softened, "You are considerate."

But Su Chaoxi lowered her head with reddened eyes, softly saying, "But the money came from Xie Tianyin, earned by my coquettish behavior. You must really look down on it."

Her whispered muttering stiffened Yang Yingrong's expression.

Guilt, self-reproach.

All sorts of emotions surged, suddenly making it difficult for her to speak.

Even Su Zhiguo suddenly realized that perhaps he had been too harsh and demanding on this daughter.

Suddenly, he felt somewhat uncomfortable.

Su Nuannuan immediately felt a surge of crisis, her gaze intently fixed on Su Chaoxi.

People who can't muster a fart with three pokes are suddenly so good at playing weak today?

"Pah, pah, pah," Old Mrs. Su glared, "acting all coy with your own husband, what's gotten into you, child? Your mother just cracked a joke, and look at you, taking it seriously."

Trying to smooth things over, Old Mrs. Su affectionately took Su Chaoxi's hand, "So, what gift did you bring for Grandma?"

Seizing the opportunity, Su Nuannuan smiled and said, "Grandma has been eyeing a bracelet for a long time, I even saw her staring at it last time. Sister has such a keen heart, noticing even the slight tap on mom's waist to buy an 800,000-dollar massage chair, surely you would be even more attentive to Grandma, right?"

Su Nuannuan's words made Old Mrs. Su's eyes shine even brighter.

Full of anticipation, she looked at Su Chaoxi.

Su Chaoxi gave Su Nuannuan a half-smiling glance.

It was always like this.

A few words put Su Chaoxi on a pedestal.

While she herself hid behind and played the innocent and pure card.

After all, it was Su Chaoxi who lacked a gift to present, not Su Nuannuan.

Pity, this time she was bound to be disappointed.

Smiling, Su Chaoxi said, "Of course."

She bent down and took out the box for Grandma.

Old Mrs. Su couldn't wait to receive it and as she opened the box, her eyes sparkled!

The gorgeous, translucent green bracelet caught everyone's attention as soon as it was taken out!

Su Nuannuan's expression changed.

The bracelet on Wen Jingshu's wrist had such fine luster, it seemed almost dripping, and the color was the purest emerald green.

Worth at least several million at the very least!

Who would have thought Su Chaoxi would really bring out this bracelet?

Old Mrs. Su was overjoyed, cradling it carefully as if afraid to drop it.

Su Chaoxi asked, "Grandma, do you like it?"

Laughing with the bracelet in her hand, Old Mrs. Su said, "I love it! This is fantastic, so beautiful! I always knew our Chaoxi was the most dutiful. Whatever Grandma wants, you always know, don't you!"

Su Chaoxi smiled gently, "I'm glad you like it."

It wasn't in vain that she had spent ten minutes picking it out at the Yiwu small market that morning.

It cost her a whole hundred yuan!

Su Chaoxi glanced at Su Nuannuan, "Grandma, it's not just me who's dutiful. Nuannuan also noticed long ago that you liked this kind of bracelet, so she must have bought one in secret too, planning to surprise you."

Old Mrs. Su's eyes lit up, and she turned her gaze to Su Nuannuan.

Under Old Mrs. Su's gaze, Su Nuannuan took a step back and said with a forced smile, "I... "

Smiling, Su Chaoxi said, "Nuannuan, take it out, it's the thought that counts, no matter the amount."

Su Nuannuan's face turned red swiftly, "How could I afford such an expensive bracelet..."

"Look at what you're saying, who could afford it? I can't afford it either!"

Su Chaoxi sincerely said, "If I didn't know how much Grandma liked it, I wouldn't have been able to lose face to ask someone for this bracelet. But its value doesn't matter, could Grandma possibly complain about a cheap gift from you? The important thing is the thought behind it."

"Exactly, Chaoxi being married is just different, becoming wiser by the day," Old Mrs. Su laughed indulgently, looking at Su Nuannuan.

Su Chaoxi laughed, "Grandma, I didn't get wiser because I got married, I've always known; this will always be my home, you will always be my Grandma, so I must take good care of you. Although I've only been at home for a few years, the affection you've given me cannot be replaced by anyone."

Then, looking at Su Nuannuan, she said, "Nuannuan, you've enjoyed many years of affection in my stead, your feelings for Grandma and for home must be even deeper, right, Nuannuan?"
