I am chasing a rough man in the 80s
Chapter 764: Silly Little Suizi

Chapter 764: Chapter 764: Silly Little Suizi

At this moment, Suizi wanted nothing more than to die.

As a man who had been married for five years, Yu Jingting had grown an extraordinarily thick skin.

Making a few flirty remarks was nothing to him.

He never filtered his words when he was single, let alone now that he was married.

Compared to him, Suizi felt as if her own skin was so thin it would start bleeding at any moment. She didn’t even have the courage to look at the nurse’s expression, and didn’t even notice when the nurse had left.

Her attention was drawn to the woman in the mirror.

With a clear, oval-shaped face, large eyes, deep eye sockets, and rounded corners that softened her gaze. Her skin was so fair it was almost translucent, and her facial features were fine to the point of perfection.

Suizi placed her hand on her face and unconsciously uttered:

"I look just like my mom..." So that’s what her face looked like when it was slim. It wasn’t a pancake face at all!

"Well, you do resemble her. But you’re much younger and prettier than she is. My wife, you’re so sweet, even dimples appear when you smile. As for mom, she looks like an old monster...oh, hey, mom, you haven’t left yet?"

Yu Jingting, trying to score points with his wife, felt a chill behind him halfway through his speech, and turned around to see Chen Lijun standing behind him with a cold smile on her face.

"This is the rest area for healthcare workers. What are you doing here, mom? You’re really overstepping."

"If I hadn’t been passing by, would I have heard you bad mouthing me?!"

"How would I dare, mom? Yes, my wife is younger than you, but doesn’t that make you more... mature? With your ageless charm, you should go bewitch my dad instead, leave him so smitten that he doesn’t show up at dawn."

"You’re full of crap, Suizi, you really should —" Chen Lijun wanted to say that she should let her accompany her in the hospital instead.

Yet when she saw Suizi’s eyes crinkle in laughter, she swallowed her words.

"Just make sure to lock the door tonight and don’t lose your purse."

Once back home, Chen Lijun complained to Fan Huang, completely puzzled.

"Suizi doesn’t remember Jingting, does she? She was so scared during the day. But when I returned, she was laughing while Jingting was holding her."

"Those two kids grew up together, right? Maybe our girl was really into Jingting when she was 17."

"There’s no way! I remember when Suizi was 16 or 17, she was always crying, begging me to move, and complaining that Yu Tiegen was always bullying her."

"Back then, did she ever mention any boys, apart from Jingting?"

"Not really, this girl has always been conservative, pretty much like you. She doesn’t even dare to talk to boys, let alone talk about them."

Fan Huang sighed, patting little Xiaochen.

"That’s why you should read more philosophy and stay away from all those handwritten texts from the Ming Dynasty... If you look at our girl from a philosophical perspective, it’s simple: extreme love turns into hatred, and extreme hatred turns into love."

Chen Lijun: ...

"For a girl in her adolescence, if a boy’s name often escapes her lips, would you really be naive enough to think she dislikes him? Real disgust means she wouldn’t even want to say his name or remember him. And during the day, she admitted it herself."

Fan Huang thought about Suizi’s reaction when she first woke up. She was surprised but definitely not repulsed. Otherwise, how could she have confessed her feelings for Yu Jingting in her half-conscious state?

"I feel like a fake mom. I don’t understand our girl at all..."

Fan Huang comforted her, "Take it slow. Put the time you spend reading handwritten texts towards studying philosophy—"

"Will that help me better understand our daughter?"

"No, but it might help you understand me better."

"..."

Yu Jingting brought Suizi back to the ward and opened a box of food to feed her.

Suizi naturally resisted, as she thought feeding was an intimate act. Their relationship was currently more like hairpulling rivals.

But Yu Jingting didn’t give her a chance to refuse. He picked up the porridge to feed her and added a threat: "If you’re not obedient, I’ll kiss you in front of all the doctors and nurses!"

"!!!" Suizi covered her mouth, looking at him with horror.

"Ah, you prefer the hard way, huh? Geez, whether you’ve lost your memory or not, you’re still the same, just doing different things."

Suizi felt something was off about what he said, but with her current knowledge, she couldn’t figure out what it was.

Yu Jingting used his "tiger authority" to momentarily intimidate her and fed her a bowl of porridge. He even kindly peeled a peach for her, although he only allowed her to eat one bite, as she couldn’t eat more.

"Is this ward number three?" Suizi remembered the plaque she had seen when they entered.

She suddenly remembered a conversation between two nurses.

There’s a handsome guy in Ward Three who graduated from Tsinghua University... Suizi, always having looked up to the prestigious school, realized in her memory that she had never met a real-life student from Tsinghua University.

"Mmhmm." Yu Jingting replied cautiously, hoping not to go into detail about the two nurses talking about a handsome guy "unable to get out of bed".

Right now, in Suizi’s mind, he was already the man about town who could do no right.

If he were to add the charge of "making other women unable to get out of bed", he might as well give up on winning his wife back.

"Where is the Tsinghua University graduate hottie? Was the uncle from earlier a graduate of Tsinghua?" Suizi thought of Fan Huang and paused before addressing him.

Even though Yu Jingting kept calling that man "Dad" and her mom seemed to have a close relationship with him too, she still couldn’t bring herself to acknowledge him as such.

"I’ve never bothered to ask where he graduated from — is it possible that the Tsinghua University graduate the nurses were talking about is me?"

"You? No way! You can’t even recite ancient poetry! You tear my books... you steal my steamed buns, and pull my hair!" Suizi blurted out without a moment’s thought.

"...Alright."

Yu Jingting gritted his teeth, bringing the fruit that was about to be fed to her mouth, into his own instead. He refused to feed her anymore!

Heartless woman!

So, in her mind, his image was so negative?

"Why are you being so mean..." Suizi protested.

"You remember me stealing your steamed bun when we were kids! That’s been years! What about you stealing countless things from me, huh?"

"How could I possibly steal something from you!!!"

"Isn’t that my family’s legacy, our descendants?" After saying this, Yu Jingting even whistled to himself, murmuring, "Thinking about it, our daughter and son are truly remarkable."

They stood out, despite fierce competition!

"....???" Suizi tilted her head and stared at him, confused.

She seemed to understand a little, but at the same time, she didn’t. Biting her lip, she nervously watched him, her cheeks flushing red with a hint of shame in her eyes.

She felt that a streetwise guy like him shouldn’t be saying such things. Could it be that she was overthinking it?

Was it wrong for her to think so poorly of him? He did just feed her a meal...

The pure innocence and softness of the young girl was struggling within her conflicted heart. Her instincts were telling her that he was not saying anything nice, but her innocence was making her feel bad about thinking so ill of someone.

The sight of this indecisiveness warmed Yu Jingting’s heart, making him itch for her.

What should he do? This naive and innocent Suizi was just so tempting... The little devil in Yu Jingting’s heart started to stir again.
