Chapter 325: Unhappy Grandpa Su
"Where are you going?" Ji Mei asked. A hint of vigilance flashed in her eyes, and she held Su Sheng's arm tightly, fearing that he would do something impulsive.
"That boy is holding our granddaughter's hand. I'm going to separate them," Su Sheng said with an unhappy look on his face. There was a hint of anger and dissatisfaction in his voice, and his brows were furrowed, like a child whose favorite toy had been taken away.
"You old man, you're going to stop young people from dating and holding hands!" Ji Mei said speechlessly. Back then, when their daughter Su Xiaoyue was dating, the old man was very anxious and often secretly followed them on dates. Her eyes revealed a hint of reminiscence and a smile, recalling those interesting things in the past. At the same time, she also hoped that Su Sheng could learn from his mistakes and not repeat them.
"Oh, this is not comfortable to watch!" How can he feel comfortable when his baby is abducted by another man? Su Sheng sighed, a helpless look on his face, and a hint of loss and reluctance in his eyes.
"Do you still remember when Xiaoyue had a big fight with you when you were dating? You can't do that again." Ji Mei said helplessly. Her eyes revealed a hint of worry, and she gently patted Su Sheng's shoulder, hoping that he could calm down and not ruin his granddaughter's happiness because of a momentary impulse.
"Alas, it's not that I feel sorry for my daughter!" Su Sheng said with a look of sympathy. His eyes revealed a hint of tenderness and kindness. Thinking of every little detail of his daughter's childhood, the dissatisfaction in his heart gradually dissipated.
"You, don't worry so much. They've all grown up and have their own ideas. You, an old man, are just worrying about nothing." Ji Mei said speechlessly. She shook her head gently, a hint of smile in her eyes. Looking at Su Sheng's appearance, she felt that he was both cute and a little helpless.
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Su Sheng remembered how Su Xiaoyue was angry when they were dating because of his obstruction. He decided not to be the one who got in the way. His eyes revealed a hint of compromise and helplessness. In the end, he gave up the idea of separating Nangong Jingming and Su Siyi and followed the team towards the city, silently wishing his granddaughter happiness.
In reality, Su Xiaoyue wasn't their biological child; he was the child of his eldest brother. His brother was a mysterious shadow, moving through an unknown world, acting with utmost secrecy. Su Sheng had no idea what his occupation was, and his whereabouts were always elusive. Until one day, his brother appeared before him without warning, his expression anxious, his eyes revealing an unprecedented panic and eagerness. He hurriedly confided in Su Sheng all the long-buried, little-known secrets of his family, and then gently placed a swaddled baby girl in his arms. That baby girl was Su Xiaoyue.
From then on, the Su family had a lovely little daughter. Su Sheng and Ji Mei had always longed for a daughter. Previously, they only had two sons, and now with Su Xiaoyue, the family suddenly had more joy and laughter. They were naturally overjoyed at this unexpected yet incredibly precious daughter, pouring all their love on her.
The two brothers of the Su family were truly fond of this unexpected little sister, treating her like a precious treasure. They always carefully cared for her, holding her in their hands for fear of dropping her, and holding her in their mouths for fear of her melting. As a result, Su Xiaoyue had an exceptionally close relationship with her two brothers, and her childhood was filled with warmth and joy.
However, the good times didn't last long. Things changed after Su Hao got married. The arrival of his second sister-in-law was like an unexpected storm, breaking the original peace and harmony.
The second sister-in-law seemed to harbor resentment towards Su Xiaoyue, often revealing expressions of disdain and sarcastic remarks. Gradually, the relationship between Su Xiaoyue and her second brother and sister-in-law grew distant, and the once-close intimacy gradually faded under the erosion of time. Fortunately, Su Xiaoyue's relationship with Su Shiqian and his wife remained as warm and affectionate as ever, like the warm sun on a winter's day, providing her with endless comfort.
When Su Sheng learned someone was trying to abduct the daughter he had raised, his inner worry surged like a surging tide. He feared harm to his daughter, terrified of losing this precious child. Driven by panic and anxiety, he acted in ways that deeply annoyed Su Xiaoyue. The conflict between father and daughter escalated, culminating in a heated argument—their first such intense conflict.
However, fate always seems to like to play tricks on people, but it also gives people a glimmer of hope at critical moments. In the end, Su Xiaoyue and Qin Zhihui overcame all difficulties and successfully came together, reaping the happiness that belonged to them.
They didn't waste any time at the door. They followed the crowd in and soon returned to Xinghai City.
"Senior Brother, you are back. I have rented a large yard which is big enough for us to live in." Mu Chenyang knew that they were coming back, and had been waiting near the door early in the morning. As soon as he saw them, he immediately went to greet them with a warm smile on his face and a hint of pride in his eyes.
"Okay, then lead the way." Nangong Jingming said, with a hint of fatigue in his voice.
"Sister Siyi, you are back. What did you encounter this time? Tell me." Qin Zhixuan's eyes lit up when she saw Su Siyi. Like a happy little bird, she ran to her side, holding her arms tightly with both hands, her face full of curiosity and expectation.
"Okay, but let's talk about it slowly when we get back!" Su Siyi also said with a smile. Her smile was like a flower blooming in spring, warm and charming.
"Okay, you've worked hard outside, go back and make something delicious." Qin Zhixuan smiled and pulled her forward, her steps brisk as if she had endless energy.
Soon, they arrived at a small courtyard they rented.
Mu Chenbai reported to Nangong Jingming on their recent activities in Xinghai City. His eyes revealed a hint of excitement and pride as he said, "We've opened a shop, and business has been good. After all, our products are very valuable in the interstellar world. Even our snacks are very popular with interstellar people. You could say that the items in our shop are things that interstellar people like and have never seen before."
"You did a great job. Now our products can be launched in the interstellar space." After hearing this, Nangong Jingming's eyes flashed with approval, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a gratified smile, and he praised them for their good work without hesitation.
"I'm pretty good at opening a shop and doing business, but our stuff is still the best." Mu Chenbai said with a smile, his face brimming with confidence. He knew very well that the uniqueness and scarcity of these items in this interstellar world were the key to their success.
"Well, otherwise, you wouldn't have the chance to come here. This is for you, you can do a good job of promoting it." Nangong Jingming sent him a set of fruit testing data that Ren Lin gave him.
"Our fruit has such good data!" After receiving it, Mu Chenbai looked at the data carefully. His eyes suddenly widened and his face was full of surprise, as if he had discovered a new world.
"Yes, so you have to promote it well. This fruit is still being grown. Although the quantity is still large now, I feel that more people will come to buy it in the future. You also have to control the quantity." Nangong Jingming said, with a hint of worry in his eyes. He knew that once the market demand was stimulated, the supply might face pressure, so it was crucial to plan ahead.
"Well, don't worry, I know what to do." Mu Chenbai said confidently. He raised his chin slightly, his eyes were firm, and he already had a detailed publicity and sales strategy in his mind.
"Well, the external business is left to you. I will handle the big orders!" Nangong Jingming said. His tone was firm and powerful, and his eyes revealed the decisiveness and responsibility of a leader.
"Okay, senior brother, tell us about what you encountered in the forest this time. We are all curious too." Mu Chenbai asked with anticipation. There was a glint of curiosity in his eyes, and he couldn't wait to know about their adventures in the forest.
"I'll let Xuexin tell you later. There's one more thing I need to tell you right now." Nangong Jingming looked at everyone and said. His expression suddenly became serious, and his eyes revealed a hint of solemnity, which made everyone feel the seriousness of the situation.
Everyone saw his expression and knew that he had something serious to say. They all sat down seriously, waiting for him to speak. The originally relaxed and cheerful atmosphere suddenly became quiet and tense. Everyone held their breath and stared at Nangong Jingming.
"The reason we suddenly followed the SEALs back this time was mainly because they told me that a large insect swarm was coming." Nangong Jingming said, his voice low and heavy, as if every word carried tremendous pressure.
"Insect swarm, what is this?" Qin Zhixuan asked doubtfully, her brows slightly furrowed, her eyes revealing a hint of confusion and fear. She felt uneasy at this unfamiliar word.
"Many Zerg are about to riot and come back to attack the city." Su Siyi explained, with a hint of worry in her eyes. Although she tried to keep her tone calm, she could not hide her inner nervousness.
"Are these Zergs seeking death by attacking the city?" Qin Yunhai asked doubtfully, with a look of disdain on his face. He thought to himself that the city had powerful weapons and equipment and a defense system, and the Zerg's move was tantamount to hitting a rock with an egg, overestimating their own capabilities.
"I don't understand that. After all, we haven't experienced it before. So everyone should learn about the Zerg Tide and be prepared. Then we can kill the Zerg." Nangong Jingming said with some anticipation and some worry. His eyes revealed a complex emotion. He was looking forward to seeing more Zerg species in this Zerg Tide and improving himself and his team's strength, but at the same time he was worried about everyone's safety and feared that he would not be able to withstand the Zerg's fierce attack.
