I am chasing a rough man in the 80s
Chapter 781: This Unintentional Mistake

Chapter 781: Chapter 781: This Unintentional Mistake

When Father Chen returned from seeing off the guests, he seemed very restrained in front of Yu Jingting and his wife.

Yu Jingting went ahead with the original plan, berating the old man mercilessly.

From the conversation between Yu Jingting and Father Chen, Suizi could piece together Father Chen’s romantic history.

He first got involved in a false pregnancy scandal with a female lead in the Beijing Opera, and was later nearly drugged and taken advantage of by a nanny.

Suizi could hardly believe such an unsavoury past, it was unlike anything she had previously understood about him.

This man, who was seemingly devoid of moral integrity, had a study filled with famous paintings and calligraphy and a showcase displaying awards and trophies from his academic achievements, it was profoundly ironic.

Yu Jingting, troubled by Que Wuyu’s appearance, didn’t have much interest in jesting with the old man, something he usually enjoyed. He casually berated the old man for a moment, then led Suizi away.

As they left, Suizi saw both Father Chen and Mother Chen sigh with relief. It was clear that Yu Tiegen frequently irritated the old couple in normal times.

"Why do you harbour such a strong hostility towards them?" Suizi asked him on the way back.

"That old man originally called you a wild child, then a country bumpkin. He called you these names 38 times, and I have been keeping count. Compared to how much he belittled you, I’ve let him off lightly."

As for Old man Chen creating a scene during Chen Lijun’s wedding ceremony, that was something Yu Jingting merely dealt with in passing. His primary grievance was the old man looking down on his wife.

"...."Suizi didn’t expect this to be the reason. She felt a strange sense of satisfaction. This feeling was familiar.

"Am I involved in this?"

"Guess?" Yu Jingting, still jealous, was not in the mood for clear conversation.

He would not tell her that not only was she involved, but she also helped strategise. She calculated schemes against both the Chen and Fan families, leaving them helpless and desperate.

Some fragments in Suizi’s mind resurfaced, both of them discussing strategies, those moments they spent in the warmth of their bed or huddled around the heater while munching on roasted sweet potatoes, scheming together.

"So, when I grew up, I became this kind of person..." Suizi felt incredulous, but she also felt increasingly grounded.

She was beginning to remember a lot more now, memories of the past and present intertwining, making her internal jigsaw puzzle more complete.

Whether it was her present life, choice of partner, or even her personality and career planning, everything was completely different from what she had envisioned at 17 years old.

She had become a courageous woman she could hardly have imagined, involved in all of Yu Jingting’s business, transforming from a timid girl into a fierce woman who could make strategic plans with him.

"If you don’t want to become this kind of person, what do you want to become? Marry a pen pusher and be a good wife and mother your whole life?" Yu Jingting spoke with an undercurrent of bitterness.

He was deep in the mire of jealousy, every comment he made was accompanied by a sour note.

"But, I like my life now more."

Yu Jingting instantly felt less bitter. He allowed a smile to creep to his lips while pretending to act nonchalantly.

"So, tell me, what’s so good about it now?"

"Firstly, I have become a very independent woman, I can continue to focus on academics, I have two great kids, a wonderful mother-in-law, my parents are not bad, and Jiaojiao is also super talented..."

Suizi counted these reasons on her fingers.

Yu Jingting initially waited arrogantly for her praise, but as she listed everything else except for him, his face turned black.

*Pfft.* Suizi chuckled at his gloomy face, giggling louder and louder.

How could she have once been scared of him? Yu Tiegen was so straightforward thus allowing her to sense his subtle emotional changes. Interestingly, this special ability seemed to be unique to her.

She held the remote control to his emotions, he was like her other half, tailored just for her. This unexpected discovery sweetened Suizi’s heart like a spoonful of honey.

"Dare you laugh?!" Yu Jingting didn’t know what she was laughing at, his embarrassment turned into anger, and he wanted to scare her with his most fearsome face.

Not far away, a black Santana sedan was ready to spring into action.

The driver who ran back from the restroom asked Que Wuyu, who was sitting in the back seat:

"Director Que, should we really crash into them? "

According to the plan, the driver was supposed to drive into Yu Jingting’s car to cause a minor "accidental scratch".

From overhearing conversations with the Chen Family, Que Wuyu knew Yu Jingting was an unyielding tough guy who took no nonsense from anyone and wouldn’t hesitate to retaliate against anyone who crossed him.

Que Wuyu hadn’t considered running into Yu Jingting at the Chen’s, however, since he did, he wanted to take advantage of the situation.

He wanted to cause friction, to make Yu Jingting lose his temper in front of Chen Hansui. The goal was to emphasise Yu Jingting’s faults, in order to cause a rift in their marriage.

Calculative men carry such schemes in their DNA, they don’t need to think, they can carry them out with ease.

However, Wuyu’s mindfulness did not fully apply to Chen Hansui. And when he thought of the gentle and elegant girl, his calculations faltered.

Que Wuyu involuntarily thought of the elegant girl, her pink puffed sleeves, trembling eyelashes when she looked down, and the faint tea scent on her.

He had never felt something like this before.

After only seeing Suizi once, it was as if the wheel of his destiny had been mercilessly turned by fate, obstructing his elaborate plans.

If we crashed into them, would she get hurt?

Even if the driver he hired was very skilled, what if something happened?

These thoughts flashed through his mind. Before he could consider too deeply, he had already announced his answer.

"Forget it."

Que Wuyu was ready to give up this risky move, but the next moment, what happened in the car before them, changed his mind.

He saw the girl, who had just entered his heart, provoking tender feelings in him, get up from the passenger seat and kiss another man.

This sight ignited Que Wuyu’s rationality, he said without thinking: "Move, let me drive."

Suizi had angered Yu Jingting to the point of gnashing his teeth, he couldn’t do anything to her. He was considering pulling her closer for a bite to vent his frustration, when Suizi made the first move.

Suizi stood up and gently pecked his lips, Yu Jingting was dumbfounded.

"Wifey, have your memories returned?!"

The Suizi he remembered hardly ever initiated things. After her memory loss, she became even more timid, becoming lightheaded even from a simple kiss. But now, she was the one who initiated it?

"Not every memory has come back..." she replied, having nothing to lose.

Although she could already remember a lot, it still felt like she was watching someone else’s story, lacking a sense of participation.

The reason she kissed him was purely following her heart.

This was the way the 17-year-old Suizi declared her feelings for the person she loved. She gathered her courage and wanted to tell Jingting that no matter what she had imagined her perfect lover to be like, the person she was most fond of right now was him.

Her moist eyes and her half-suppressed expression made Jingting’s heart tighten. As he held his breath waiting for her to continue, a violent collision came from the car.
