I am chasing a rough man in the 80s
Chapter 841: A Communication Pattern of Its Own

Chapter 841: Chapter 841: A Communication Pattern of Its Own

Under Suizi’s restraint, Yu Jingting managed to suppress the curse that had almost escaped his lips, opting instead for what he considered a milder retort.

"You think those family rules from hundreds of years ago apply to my wife in the new era? Hey, old man, which ancient tomb did you crawl out of like an old zombie? I’ll contact a Daoist later to help settle your spirit," he said.

Everyone present had a look of horror on their faces, except for Suizi.

Sighing, Suizi thought to herself that she couldn’t expect too much from Yu Jingting; not cussing someone out with anatomical precision was already showing her respect.

The bodyguards of Yu Youchan had turned to stone, seeing their boss being insulted like that. If they didn’t respond now, wouldn’t it be like they were inviting bullying?

So two bodyguards took a synchronized step forward, and Yu Jingting also stood up, matching their imposing glare with a dominating stare of his own.

Want to play rough?

He had never been afraid of anyone!

Yu Youchan, too, remained silent, probably curious about Yu Jingting’s prowess.

The atmosphere was taut as a bowstring, ready to snap. Yu Jingting’s brothers also stood up, alertness written all over their faces.

The unexpected arrival of Yu Youchan had everyone’s hearts in their throats, unsure about his intentions.

Just as the stand-off reached a deadlock, Suizi’s voice broke the silence.

"Have another bite, ah." She held up the egg custard in her hand and, while Yu Jingting was locked in a power struggle, she found a gap to feed him another mouthful.

Yu Jingting almost lost his composure, glancing at her helplessly. Wife, you sure know how to pick your moments.

Yu Youchan seemed surprised as he glanced at Suizi. Most women would be trembling with fear just witnessing such a scene, but she was nonchalantly carrying on.

Yu Youchan suddenly felt an unpleasant sense of being disrespected.

Although he had seen his share of tough girls who could fight and curse, Suizi’s calm demeanor that aggravated people... that was truly one of a kind.

"So you’re not afraid of me," Yu Youchan observed, narrowing his eyes at Suizi.

Suizi gestured invitingly with her hand, inwardly scoffing—Not afraid, yeah, right.

But in moments like these, fear would make you seem weak. Even if she felt intimidated, she had to act indifferent, following Yu Jingting’s lead.

With a side glance, Suizi noted that Yu Jingting truly wasn’t afraid at all.

She had to hand it to this man... Did his dictionary even contain the word fear?

Yu Youchan was completely bamboozled by this couple and followed Suizi right into the office.

The remaining people and bodyguards looked at each other, unsure of what was happening inside.

Suizi brewed some tea and handed it to Yu Youchan, who sat on the couch, scanning the office with evident dissatisfaction at the small scale of the company.

"Yu Jingting, formerly known as Yu Tiegen, 25 years old, from the Wang Family’s enclave, son of Yu Shuisheng, grandson of Yu Ding, am I right?" he inquired.

Suizi felt a jolt of anxiety.

In just the few hours since last night, the other party had managed to find out all of Yu Jingting’s information, and all this in an era not known for its advanced information technology. How powerful must they be?

This made Suizi feel an overwhelming pressure, but she quickly calmed down.

It seemed the old man didn’t know the strength of her maternal family, only uncovering Yu Jingting’s background, which wasn’t too difficult for those who intended to investigate his business dealings.

"Old man, don’t beat around the bush with me, tell me what you have to say, spit it out— what are you looking at? You think you’re skilled in checking household registrations, huh? What, planning on changing careers to a registrar?"

Having said that, she looked him up and down, nodded, and added, "Too old for that, they wouldn’t hire you even if you went."

Yu Jingting took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, tossed one to Yu Youchan, who casually caught it in his mouth, and Yu Jingting lit it for him, while Suizi dared not even breathe loudly from the side.

She had a premonition that you couldn’t interact with old men like him in normal ways, and Yu Jingting seemed to have grasped Yu Youchan’s temper. These people must have their unique ways of communicating.

At this time, her best move was to keep silent.

"Hahaha, I felt there was something special about you when I saw your birthmark yesterday, and after someone looked into it, sure enough, you’re a child of our old Yu Family," Yu Youchan indeed fell for Yu Jingting’s approach, laughing heartily while patting his shoulder.

"I’m your great uncle Yu Jia. The name Yu Youchan was given by a Feng Shui Master after calculating my horoscope, said to attract wealth."

"..." Suizi was speechless, wasn’t that just summoning money? Literally called ’Having Money’, why not call it ’Prosperous Wealth’?

"Is your grandfather dead?" Yu Youchan asked Yu Jingting.

Just the day before, he was speaking with a Hong Kong accent, and in less than ten minutes, he had switched back to the robust flavor of Dongbei dialect.

"Thanks to you, he’s fit as a fiddle; he couldn’t die even if you did," Yu Jingting retorted sharply.

He hadn’t spent much time with his grandfather Yu Ding, but their relationship was quite good. And here the old man was, rudely asking if someone was dead. He really had no way with words.

"Is the fourth still grave-digging all over the place? Don’t you mix with him, no future in that—come over here, be my grandson. I’ll hand over Tianlong Society to you. You’ll be the next leader. What do you say?"

Yu Youchan threw out a proposal that stunned Suizi, who thought to herself, wasn’t this a bit too blunt?

In fact, over dinner previously, ’the fourth’ had spoken about Yu Youchan’s background. Seeing the old man entering and calling Yu Jingting his grandson, Suizi already had a vague idea, but to hear him say it so directly was still a shock.

"How much can your small crappy company make in a year? Better follow your grandpa here, and all this will be yours in the future, want as many girls as you wish?" As Yu Youchan said this, he couldn’t help but glance at Suizi, his eyes full of mischievous amusement, "Definitely all better at serving than her."

Jianghu people don’t have such courteous speech; this blunt style had Suizi’s mind going blank in an instant.

Her brain was whirring, as if an invisible hand was flipping through Yu Tiegen’s comprehensive guide on how to retort sharply—she was eager to find just the right words to hurl back at the old man.

"You’ve come to my grandfather because you can’t make it on your own, out of respect for a common ancestor, you’re entitled to a meal here, but if you keep spouting nonsense, watch out."

Yu Jingting’s hand rested on Suizi’s shoulder, assertively declaring his authority. This was different from the earlier joking; his eyes now held a hint of murderous intent.

Yu Youchan’s hand, holding the cigarette, paused, and his carefree old eyes gained a touch of murderousness as he hooked up a smile at Suizi.

"You’ve come to me, and surely you’re not just inviting me over to your place, right? No other conditions?" Yu Jingting blocked his gaze from Suizi, asking straightforwardly.

For outsiders, suddenly having a local tyrant relative, who also wanted to pass on an inheritance, seemed like an unexpected windfall from the sky.

Anyone else would be overjoyed by now, but Yu Jingting showed no signs of being excessively flattered and still managed to ask calmly.

On hearing this, Yu Youchan stood up, pointed at Suizi, and said.

"It’s simple, I want her. Just leave her to me, and you’ll be the next leader of Tianlong Society."
