Chapter 955: Chapter 955 Ah Yes, Yes, Yes (500+ Monthly Ticket Bonus Chapter)
"I can assure you with utmost certainty that no matter how many times you start over, she will never like you. As for the reason..."
Yu Jingting lifted the corners of his mouth into a wicked smile, and Chen Tong felt an ominous premonition—what nasty trick was this guy planning now?
"You work for my family as free labor for two months, and after those two months, I’ll tell you the answer."
"What if you’re playing me?" Chen Tong had no trust in Yu Jingting whatsoever.
"I, Yu Jingting, might not have many virtues, but I always keep my word," Yu Jingting shrugged, "Whether you believe me or not is irrelevant. Two months in exchange for a truth you would never know in two lifetimes, it’s up to you whether you take it or leave it."
Chen Tong was silent for a while, then clenched his teeth.
"Fine, I agree to your terms."
It was just two months of work, after all. Being able to see Suizi every day made it worthwhile.
Seeing Yu Jingting bring Chen Tong back, Suizi’s heart finally settled.
She was genuinely afraid of the wind picking up at night.
"It’s about time for bed; Xiaochen, go check around the front and back of the house to see if all the windows are closed properly," Yu Jingting told Chen Tong.
"How did you do it?" Suizi was surprised to see Chen Tong following Yu Jingting’s orders.
In his past life, the boy had only listened to her, but now he was obeying Yu Jingting without question.
"Men’s communication skills—are you sure you want to know?" Yu Jingting successfully evoked a wave of admiration from Suizi.
Chen Tong was so annoyed his teeth itched.
He wanted to expose Yu Jingting, but not wanting Suizi to learn about his matters, he could only grimace and follow Yu Jingting’s commands.
Before sleeping, he had to check the doors and windows, go to the Courtyard to feed the poultry again, and make sure their enclosures were secured.
Yu Jingting sat in a chair, his left hand clutching a green onion, his right hand holding a sauce bowl, his legs crossed, supervising Chen Tong to make sure he didn’t slack off.
After putting Chen Tong through a proper wringer, Yu Jingting, satisfied, wrapped his arms around Suizi to head inside, not forgetting to turn back and order Chen Tong:
"Get up early tomorrow and accompany my mother to the Market to buy groceries. You’ll help carry them. Be quick about it; when you get back, wash the vegetables, pick them, and tidy up the house."
"Aren’t you pushing it too far?" Suizi asked quietly.
Initially, Suizi had thought Yu Jingting was joking about making Chen Tong work, but now it seemed he was earnestly cruel in his resolve to make Chen Tong toil.
"Spare the rod and spoil the child."
As if cursed by these words, Suizi immediately withheld her opinion.
Seeing Chen Tong’s obedient behavior, she began to wonder if Yu Jingting truly had some remarkable approach to parenting.
Back in the room, Suizi’s eyes swept around before choosing to sit in the chair farthest from the bed.
"Why are you sitting so far away?" Yu Jingting was discontent.
"Let’s get things clear first. What exactly did you say to Chen Tong to get him to listen to you like this?"
Suizi thought to herself that the bed was a dangerous place—if she sat down, she might not get any answers at all.
"Just normal male communication. He really ’likes’ you, which is why he listens only to you and behaves himself in front of you," Yu Jingting said with emphasis on the word ’likes’, his gaze fixed on Suizi’s reaction.
Suizi nodded naturally, looking at Yu Jingting in confusion.
"He’s my adopted son, and I treat him so well; isn’t it normal for him to like me?"
Speaking of this, she felt a bit of pride.
In her past life, none of the sons of her many sisters were as filial as hers; if Suizi hadn’t been so young, they would never have believed he was adopted and would think he was her biological son.
"Heh, a naively simple-minded girl." Yu Jingting’s lips curled upward, not annoyed in the slightest—actually quite pleased.
No matter what that boy thought, his wife only saw Chen Tong as her son.
Chen Tong had already been deceived by him, for he was a man with an Oedipus complex.
His liking for Suizi was hardly the normal affection of a son for a mother.
Thus, Chen Tong would be ruthless and unscrupulous with everyone else but pretended to be exceptionally well-behaved in front of Suizi. His true intention was to please Suizi, desperately wishing to make her recognize his feelings in this manner.
Little did he know that such actions would only widen the distance between him and Suizi in matters of the opposite sex. As for the various reasons, Yu Jingting planned to wait until Chen Tong had completed two months of odd jobs for his family before discussing them.
"Why do I feel like you’re acting all weird?" Suizi found Yu Jingting a bit strange.
"Do I? Come here, take a closer look and see if there’s something off about me." Yu Jingting pointed to his mouth.
Suizi thought he might have a mouth sore, so she really leaned in to check.
Yu Jingting grabbed her all of a sudden, lifted her up, tossed her onto the bed, and then pounced like a wolf on a sheep.
"There’s no weirdness, but there is a bit of Yin-Yang imbalance, and only you can cure this illness, Dr. Xiaochen please be kind..."
Outside the door, Chen Tong clenched his fists in anger.
How he wished to burst in and pull Yu Jingting away.
But... he couldn’t win the fight.
Just thinking about how Yu Jingting could lift him with one hand made Chen Tong feel very frustrated.
Why would Suizi be willing to be with such a dangerous man? Was she not afraid that he might lose his temper and beat her?
The sounds from inside clearly became inappropriate, and the more Chen Tong listened, the angrier he got. Just when he was about to shout and scare the two people inside, his mouth was covered from behind.
"Time to rest." Ma Dong appeared behind him without making a sound.
Chen Tong grew even angrier at the sight of Ma Dong.
This brat was simply Yu Jingting’s lackey!
When Yu Jingting asked him to spy on him, this kid watched diligently, always spoiling his plans!
Chen Tong’s eyes darted around. He might not be able to handle Yu Jingting - the man was full of cunning tricks and physically too strong - but he could certainly start with Ma Dong.
This kid was only ten. Chen Tong refused to believe that he, a world-class scientist, couldn’t outsmart a ten-year-old child.
"Little brother, let’s go back to the room together." Chen Tong put on the appearance of a good big brother.
Ma Dong gave a noncommittal grunt, neither inferior nor overbearing.
Suizi had prepared a bedroom for Ma Dong right next to the room of the boy and girl twins. It had a solid wood bed and, because Chen Tong had come, an additional folding bed had been added.
"Little brother, you’re young, so you take the big bed. I’ll sleep on this small bed. What kind of cartoons do you watch on regular days?"
Chen Tong tried to get close to Ma Dong.
Ma Dong conscientiously went to the folding bed and started making it methodically. Without turning his head, he said, "Just spit it out if you have something to say. No need for excessive courtesy without cause."
"..." Chen Tong was rendered speechless, thinking to himself how difficult the children in this house were to deal with.
"You’ve known Jingting for quite some time now, right? Is he especially fierce?" Chen Tong asked.
"Ah, right, right, right."
"Does he get fierce with Suizi?"
"Ah, right, right, right."
"Does he often drink and not come home?" Chen Tong continued, these were all his stereotypes of Yu Jingting, feeling that men with a thuggish air like Jingting should be like that.
"Ah, right, right, right."
"Why do you keep saying that?"
Ma Dong, having finished making the bed, sat on it, looking at him like a little adult.
"Because dad said no matter what you ask me, I should reply with just this, ah right, right, right."
