Chapter 441: Chapter 441: Can’t Hold It Back Is a Big Deal

Suizi considered herself a very serious woman, capable of maintaining composure and not laughing under normal circumstances.

However, upon seeing Yu Shuisheng’s bruised face, Suizi couldn’t hold it in and burst out laughing.

Having caught Yu Shuisheng’s sidelong glance, Suizi quickly turned around, pretending to search for something on the ground.

"I dropped a coin! Please help me find it."

"What coin? Your father’s scratched-up face is more interesting than a coin!" Yu Jingting refused to play along, completely exposing Suizi’s little trick.

He didn’t even preserve a shred of dignity for Yu Shuisheng.

With a mockingly tone, he said, "Quickly, hand over my camera. I need to take some close-up photos of our father."

"Have you no shame?" Yu Shuisheng glared at his son and touched his face which had been scratched by his wife, wincing at the pain.

His left eye was bruised and three blood-streaked scratches adorned his right cheek, looking much like a cat’s whiskers.

His hair was a mess, from his appearance alone, one could easily deduce the history of domestic violence he had just endured.

Though the damage was quite severe, when seen on a tough guy like Yu Shuisheng, the scene was surprisingly comic.

Particularly because he still carried his former CEO’s haughty arrogance on his scratched face, offering a stark contrast that made Suizi want to laugh again when she glanced over.

"Old man, what did you do to make my mother angry?" Jingting went over and put his arm around his father’s shoulder in a show of brotherly camaraderie.

"What could I have done? It was all because of that nonsense your wife wrote—Suizi, don’t get me wrong. Your stuff is pretty good, just don’t write it again."

Suizi only nodded, forcing herself not to laugh.

"Go get me a cup of water, stop messing around!" Wang Cuihua’s voice echoed from within the house, carrying a tone of anger.

Suizi hesitated for a while before entering the house to check on her mother-in-law.

The room was filled with the faint scent of facial cream, with no other smell present. Suizi instinctively checked the bin, but it was empty.

So, not only did her father-in-law not gain anything, but he also ended up getting scratched all over?

Upon seeing Suizi, Wang Cuihua instantly brightened up and started discussing tomorrow’s menu with her. It seemed as though she had utterly defeated Yu Shuisheng and was now in high spirits.

How things played out wasn’t exactly as Suizi had imagined, but neither was it the way Yu Jingting had imagined.

Yu Jingting had accurately guessed his father’s shameless lecherousness, but he hadn’t guessed how fierce his mother, a native Dongbei woman, could be.

After listening to a few of her lines, Yu Shuisheng really wanted to throw himself into his own wife’s arms, show off his prowess as a retired boss. But Wang Cuihua hadn’t allowed him to.

She scratched him directly, twisted his ears, and questioned him. Not guilty? Do you dare to listen? Did you listen to many women’s words in the past and became immune?

She didn’t pretend with those scratches. They were real. She had scratched Yu Shuisheng into obedience.

That night, Suizi sat on her bed, pondering about the comical relationship between her mother-in-law and father-in-law while chuckling to herself.

"What are you laughing at?" Yu Jingting was stealthily approaching. The freshly bathed Suizi smelled like jasmine soap, a delightful aroma.

"Just reflecting on how there are thousands of love stories in our literature that you can’t match your own life with. If Su Zhe were here, he would have said that it’s impossible to analyze the main components of love from a test tube."

"We think we can plan everything, but in reality, love is the only variable, affecting the final outcome."

She and Yu Jingting both failed to predict the reaction of their parents-in-law, but they also cannot deny the existence of a love bond between the elder generation.

"Tsk tsk, look at you, drawing conclusions from seeing our father get scratched up?" Yu Jingting stealthily wrapped his arms around Suizi and made insincere remarks about her life reflections.

By the time Suizi realized that something was wrong, he had already charmed her to lie flat.

"...Yu Jingting, is your intelligence all concentrated in your lower half?!"

"Not exactly, it’s just that all those thousands of interpretations of love you talked about have been concentrated into one by me."

"Aren’t you...ever tired of it?" Left with no choice but to stay rational, Suizi finally asked a question that she had been so curious about.

"Would you ever get tired of eating? Taking showers? If you can control those two habits, then love can be compared to going to the toilet. Is it a question of whether it’s bothersome or if it can be held back – shh."

The last statement spoke volumes in itself.

Sometimes, Suizi feels that, Yu Jingting is a philosopher held back by his degrees.

On the surface, he talks nonsense, but if you dig deeper, it seems to make sense.

This thought process of "whether one can hold in the need to use the toilet" which astounded Suizi for an entire year successfully led her thoughts astray.

The next day, during the school meeting, she was still pondering over it.

"In regards to the renovation of the school, I suggest extending the classrooms first——"

Before the Principal could finish, Suizi interrupted him.

"Fix the toilets first."

Zhang Yue’e and others looked at Suizi in admiration. The toilet issue in the school was really urgent. The toilets were small, and even a little bit of rain would cause them to overflow.

"But we also lack classrooms, and the funds provided by the higher ups is limited."

"For those who can hold it, you have to give way to those who can’t."

Everyone clapped in approval, feeling that their director was an important philosopher who had successfully held up the public opinion.

"If there are problems during the examination by the higher-ups, you take responsibility." The principal, with a gloomy face, said this and left in a huff.

"Director, you were awesome today!" Zhang Yue’e leaned closer and started admiring Suizi, "Which book was that quote from?"

She was going to memorize the entire text once she got back.

"It’s from... Yu Tiegen Biography."

Suizi patted Zhang Yue’e’s shoulder and left with poise.

Zhang Yue’e wore a confused look.

Yu Tiegen Biography.... What was that? Why hadn’t she heard of it before?

That night, Suizi went to the Market first and bought a fish. As soon as she stepped into the courtyard, she was greeted by the tantalizing aroma of cooking.

Wang Cuihua was preparing the meal, and the enticing smell of the food wafted out.

Yu Shuisheng also seemed to be in a good mood today. He was battling with the logs in the courtyard and nodded to Suizi when he spotted her among the pile of sawdust.

"You’re back."

"Yes, Dad—What’s making you happy today?" Noticing that something seemed off, Suizi asked in a lowered voice.

"Who knows what your mother is so happy about. All of a sudden—Oh, Suizi, I picked two decent pieces of jadeite and made two bracelets for you. You see if they fit."

"Thank you, Dad." Suizi agreed readily, but her mind was already churning.

Every time her father-in-law is happy, he tends to give presents to everyone. Giving her a present first implies he definitely approves of some of her recent actions.

The only decisive actions she took recently were to give her mother-in-law advice on dealing with the potential mistress.

Still, her father-in-law was scratched because of her bad idea yesterday; what made the wind change direction today?

She won’t get any information from Yu Shuisheng’s mouth, as he only backs down in front of his wife. Suizi felt that she still lacked something when compared to her father-in-law.

So, she intended to interrogate her mother-in-law and figure out what had happened.
