Chapter 1037: Being arrogant due to favor
Chapter 1037: Being arrogant due to favor
Xu Yi followed Su Yutang like a little tail, watching her sit in front of the dressing table and apply skincare products to her face.
As she watched, Xu Yike pouted again and couldn't help but start complaining: "Tangtang, you're the best, a thousand times, ten thousand times better than your third brother Su Jinyao!"
Su Yutang turned her head with amusement upon hearing this and saw Xu Yike idly tugging at her little finger, looking sullen and like a wronged little wife.
She was somewhat surprised: "What did my third brother do to you?"
Xu Yike snorted, "All he does is see patients and perform surgeries all day long, he never has time to spend with me."
Su Yutang was even more surprised. "It can't be that bad, can it? Although my third brother is a bit busy with work, and you know how busy doctors are, he's definitely not the kind of workaholic who neglects his family. He's a typical good family man."
"Hmph, that's because you don't know the real him!"
Xu Yike immediately retorted, and began to list the evidence, "Last week, because of his emergency surgery, he stayed in the hospital for more than 30 hours straight, and forgot about our important anniversary!"
Su Yutang paused in her work and asked curiously, "What anniversary? Is it the anniversary of when you met? Or the anniversary of your relationship? I don't think it's around these days."
Xu Yike's voice immediately lowered, tinged with guilt. She poked her two index fingers together and muttered softly, "Of course... of course it's the anniversary of the first time he called me 'baby'..."
"..."
Su Yutang was silent for two seconds, then helplessly rubbed her forehead, "The first time I called you baby... on our anniversary? Xu Yike, aren't you being a little... unreasonable?"
Can this kind of day really be considered an anniversary?
Wouldn't that mean we could find a reason to "commemorate" every single day of the year?
When her best friend exposed her, Xu Yike not only didn't feel guilty, but instead pouted confidently, her face showing the fearlessness of being favored: "Hehe, anyway... anyway, your third brother will spoil me, so if I say it's an anniversary, then it's an anniversary!"
Looking at her smug, self-satisfied expression—clearly she was being difficult—Su Yutang was both amused and exasperated. Ultimately, she could only shake her head helplessly and offer her precise assessment:
"You've been spoiled by my third brother, and you've become arrogant because of his favor."
Upon hearing this, Xu Yi not only did not deny it, but smiled even more brightly and proudly, as if being spoiled and arrogant was a supreme honor.
It seems that her third brother's future married life is destined to be a bittersweet one.
After Su Yutang finished getting ready, the two went downstairs together. Just as they reached the living room, they heard their fourth brother, Su Xingyu, raise his voice, his voice filled with dissatisfaction:
"What? Do it together? Mom, are you kidding me?"
Su Yutang paused, exchanging a puzzled look with Xu Yike.
Hmm? What's wrong with Fourth Brother? Why is he so angry so early in the morning?
On the other side, Bo Jingzhou and his four little ones, who had just finished their morning run, also entered the room. They were also attracted by the sudden loud voice and curiously looked in the direction of the sound, joining the crowd of onlookers.
In the living room, Madam Su, Shu Qing, sat gracefully on the sofa, holding a cup of floral tea in her hands, with a dignified and joyful smile on her face.
Su Xingyu stood opposite her, his face showing an expression that said, "I've been betrayed."
Madam Su calmly put down her teacup and looked at her agitated son with a smile: "Yes, the eldest, second, and third sons have all found wives and settled down, haven't they? I was thinking that it would be too much trouble to hold separate ceremonies, so why not hold them all together? It would be a double celebration!"
Su Xingyu stared wide-eyed in disbelief: "So... my eldest brother, second brother, and third brother... all know?"
"Yes," Mrs. Su nodded, her tone matter-of-fact. "We've already discussed it and were just waiting to tell you today."
Upon hearing this, Su Xingyu's lips immediately curled into a wronged pout. "So... I thought you and Dad had a change of heart and were planning to prioritize my and Wanshuang's wedding. Turns out, you all made the internal decisions and I was the last to find out?"
Hearing this, Su Hanhai, who was sitting to the side reading a magazine, didn't even look up and calmly added, "That's right, you're the last one to know."
Upon hearing this, Su Xingyu was nearly driven mad with anger. He pointed at his own nose, his expression exaggerated, and remained speechless for a long time.
Su Yutang and Xu Yike couldn't help but laugh as they watched from the side, while the four little ones covered their mouths and giggled.
Looking at his parents' resigned expressions and glancing at the family members around them who seemed to enjoy the drama, Su Xingyu's chest heaved a few times. Finally, as if accepting his fate, he slumped his shoulders and conceded:
"Alright, alright, let's do it together then. Anyway... it's going to be quite lively."
This grand group wedding, with its four auspicious events, sounds spectacular, and one can foresee the chaotic preparations that will ensue at the Su family's home.
Xu Yike's eyes darted around, and she grinned as she leaned closer to Su Yutang, nudging her lightly with her elbow. She whispered, "Tangtang, look, all four of your brothers are getting married together. Why don't you get married too? Wouldn't it be perfect if we had five happy occasions?"
"what?"
Upon hearing this, Su Yutang immediately frowned and refused without thinking, "I don't want to get involved in this."
She and Bo Jingzhou are an old married couple, their child is old enough to run errands, why would they need a wedding?
As soon as she finished speaking, a deep and confident voice sounded from the side:
"Wife, I'm afraid this matter is no longer up to you."
Looking up, she saw Bo Jingzhou walking over. His expression was calm, but his eyes were resolute as he looked at Su Yutang. "I've already discussed it with your four brothers, and we need to do it together."
Su Yutang was stunned and looked at him in confusion: "Why? Didn't we already get our marriage certificate? And our child is already so big. It feels so strange to have a wedding now."
Bo Jingzhou walked up to her, gazing at her intently, his tone suddenly becoming apologetic and solemn: "Consider this a way of making up for our regrets back then, since we didn't accomplish anything..."
He paused, seemingly a little embarrassed, and his voice lowered: "It was my fault back then. In order to deal with the family's arranged marriage, I rushed to get the marriage certificate and didn't even give you a proper proposal or wedding. I'm sorry you had to suffer."
His words reminded Su Yutang of their first meeting.
At that time, they were both holding back a big surprise.
She couldn't help but chuckle, her eyes crinkling as she looked at Bo Jingzhou, teasingly saying, "You're one to talk! I was thinking of asking you what you were thinking, choosing such a... outrageous punk look to see me? Your hair was dyed like a rainbow, your clothes were utterly tasteless, and your face was a complete mess."
