Chapter 96 (1/2)
“Daaad~ What are you doing!”Shu Ning was anxious, he wasn’t done thinking yet so he thought of a way to delay Shu Cheng first.
Shu Cheng who was angry at heart, but only revealed a small bit of it on his face turned to look towards Shu Ning:”You’re still young so don’t get in between this, be good!”
Seeing that his dad was going to press on the call button, Shu Ning grabbed his arm:”Daaad~ Brother’s coming home soon, can’t this wait until after dinner! It will affect his appetite!”
“That’s true for you, not him!”
This time Shu Ning simply decided to just press himself over:”Daaad~”
“What? You’re not going to let me nag at him?”
“I know what brother is like, he’s not the type of person to start something out of nowhere, there was definitely something wrong with those people. Dad, the people who brother thought had to be fired, I don’t believe that there was nothing wrong about them with you, look into my eyes and tell it to me straight!”
Shu Cheng was silent for a moment, Shu Ning’s bet was right. After all, the memories of his past life wasn’t all-powerful _(:зゝ∠)_
“Dad~ Don’t be angry, some things will have to be dealt with sooner or later.”
“You don’t understand, those are some of the older folks in the company, and they worked very hard too when they were young, firing them would make me lost the trust of the others, even if they were wrong, I have to be the one to fire them, we have to do it slowly, one by one, before I can hand the renewed company over to the two of you. He’s already snipped off the wings of others as soon as he got promoted, how is he going to keep hold of the company in the future? Ning Ning, it’s very important to take note of the feelings of others.”
So that’s how it is! Dad isn’t blaming big brother, but big brother was just being too cruel ( ⊙ o ⊙ )
An emperor from the ancient times would also kill a lot of people before he died, taking out all the hidden dangers, then the prince will be in a much more comfortable position after he inherits the throne. The words may seem rough but the logic behind it wasn’t, this was what Shu Cheng meant.
“Dad~ It’s not a bad idea to clean them up slowly, then it wouldn’t leave any marks, but the effects of chopping them off in one go is more effective, and you could still use it as a display to frighten those with bad intentions, is that not so?”
“You youngsters only know about doing things the quick and easy way,”Shu Cheng leaned back on the sofa, and held tight the little one who pounced over to him, not allowing him to leave. This was the benefit normally enjoyed by Shu Heng, while this was Shu Cheng’s first time, what a wonderful feeling:”This is warm, don’t move.”
Shu Ning Σ( ° △°|||)︴Dad, I’m already sixteen~ Growing to 170 centimeters soon, is it proper for you to hold me like this?
Shu Cheng still wouldn’t let go even after seeing Shu Ning’s awkward appearance, he was held tightly by an arm even stronger and thicker than Shu Heng’s:”I can see from all the hugging the two of you brothers usually do, that you’ve got a pretty good relationship, and I’m very pleased about that.”
And so Shu Ning went soft, and lowered his head to press down on Shu Cheng’s shoulder:”Dad, you can hold Shu Yao too.”
“Shu Yao is my son, but aren’t you my son as well?”
“But I’m……grown now~”
“You are, and maybe if you grow even more I won’t have the strength to hug you anymore, being able to hold you while I still can is a blessing too.”
“Dad, I was wrong,”Don’t say any more /(ㄒoㄒ)/~~
“No you’re not, if I had a daughter she’d definitely enjoy hanging around her dad, just look at your big brother, he doesn’t make much physical contact, he has facial paralysis, aloof, never makes jokes, just like a small little old man. Thankfully he doesn’t walk with his hands behind his back, or he really could’ve travelled to the ancient past.”
“Ha ha ha~”Shu Ning laughed softly, his dad was right, this was how big brother was in the eyes of others too:”Oh that’s right, dad, he wasn’t like this when he was young, right? Can you tell me some funny things about him?”
“Sure~”
“Has he……wet the bed before?”Now this is a classic, he’s such a god~ Something special must’ve happened, right?
“He did, how could he not have!”
Fuck me, that’s great. Shu Ning was excited:”Then then then……Does he drool?”
“Of course, how could he not? His mom personally made a bib for him to tie around his neck while eating, ha ha, he had no neck at all when he was young, his head looked as if it were attached directly to his shoulders, he had these big round eyes, long eyelashes, super cute, he’s not long faced like he is now with his cold eyes, not cute at all.”
“Dad, did he play with bugs when he was young?”All boys have probably played with the, right? Heh~ Heh~ Heh~
“He did, boy he had fun with that, he brought a small little bottle out and secretly kept a ton of bugs in it, and he had no place to hide them so he just put them all under his pillow. When the maid came to clean up, she shook the sheets and a pile of bugs came falling out, she was so scared that she screamed and there was even a big green bug hanging from her head, she’s already an old lady who’s been working for us for over twenty years and she was a stead and quiet person, don’t you think Heng Heng was naughty when he was young?”
“Did he play with mud?”This was a good one!
“Does building a house with it count?”
“The son of a mouse knows how to dig a hole, so naturally the son of my dad would know how to build a house~”
“That’s a fun metaphor, I’ll tell Shu Heng about it later!”
“Don’t, dad, I was wrong, tell me more, I can’t really think about much right now but did he fight with others in the past?”
“Yeah, and quite many too, generally with his cousins at home, he fought with Shu Zi Xuan from the second house several times and I’m always the one who had to apologize for him, he beat Shu Zi Xuan till his nose was bruised and his face swollen, he’s too heavy-handed, he’s been that way since he was young, I had quite the headache too when I was raising him, he’s always been wily and righteous and would never apologize no matter what, just like Shu Yao, you’re the only good baby we have at home.”
That’s why I died, and they’re alive and kicking, how silly is that~
