I am chasing a rough man in the 80s
Chapter 975: The Cunning Merchant Suizi

Chapter 975: Chapter 975: The Cunning Merchant Suizi

Yu Jingting gently pinched her cheek.

"What kind of man would I be if I didn’t have secrets?"

Looking at Suizi’s face, Yu Jingting suddenly had a bit of an epiphany at that moment.

Whether it was an unrequited love like Chen Tong’s,

or a mutual adoration like the true love between him and Suizi.

Emotions seem to involve two people, but in essence, it’s a game one plays with oneself.

I love you, it’s my own affair.

It has nothing to do with you.

This series of thoughts danced in Yu Jingting’s mind for a few seconds, and he laughed.

"Damn, after spending so much time with you, I’ve also caught your literary types’ pretentious illnesses," he cursed.

Suizi was full of question marks. What had he done to be considered literary?

"Wife, I suddenly had a really good idea, come closer with your ear."

"Mhm!" Suizi leaned in with her ear, curious about what artistic statement he was about to make.

"I’ve found a great place that’s rarely visited, how about we try it out tonight?"

"...???"

This damn thing, what does it have to do with being artistic!

Suizi was so annoyed that she headbutted his forehead, and they both got hurt.

Chen Tong, who was eating pastries, looked up and saw this scene, remembering how much he used to dislike Yu Jingting being too close to Suizi.

Every time he saw it, it would make his heart feel congested.

But since waking up in the car, that strange feeling had disappeared.

He even became a bit curious. What other shameless ways could brother-in-law come up with to cling to Sister Suizi? Wasn’t this more interesting than a TV series?

As Chen Tong thought this, he couldn’t help but sneak a peek at the two of his age beside him.

Noticing that Jiaojiao and Dongdong also had the same look of watching a drama unfold, he instantly found a sense of belonging. So he wasn’t the only one who felt this way.

In this highly conformist age, anyone who showed traits that differed from others would be treated as an anomaly. Chen Tong’s intelligence was higher than that of average children, and his personality was somewhat somber, making it hard for him to blend in with his peers.

His intuition told him that Suizi was someone akin to him, which is why he was particularly attached to Suizi.

But now, he had a new discovery.

In the Yu Family, where there were many talented children, showing a unique talent would never result in being seen with the "You are different from everyone else, you must be crazy" kind of look.

Bobo, who was only in kindergarten, would often be seen holding a book and reciting ancient poems and prose.

Chen Tong had also seen Luoluo kneel before the piano with her body bent like an arch bridge, showing off her skills by playing the piano with high difficulty.

Today, the young girl might come up with some other bizarre posture to play the piano.

Chen Tong couldn’t help but feel anticipation; here, he discovered something new every day.

With this thought, Chen Tong quickly gulped down his cake. He needed to finish his homework quickly; there were so many fun things waiting for him after that.

Little Fatty’s competition had already reached the semi-finals.

Through the battles of the past few days, he had become the biggest dark horse.

No one had expected this young teen, competing in an international event for the first time, to cut through the competition and break into the semi-finals.

The semi-final happened to fall on a weekend, and Suizi led the entire family, young and old, in a grand procession to cheer on Little Fatty.

Because there were quite a few of them, Yu Jingting had a hard time getting entry tickets.

Dongdong, feeling slightly shy, tugged at his clothes and confirmed with Yu Jingting once more.

"Dad, do we really have to dress like this?"

Suizi, hoping for good luck, had custom-made outfits for each child.

The pants were checkered black and white, with the boys wearing black jackets and white chessboard-patterned ribbons.

The girls wore white jackets with black chessboard-patterned ribbons.

This getup was sure to turn heads.

They looked nice, but for the introverted Dongdong, this outfit was a real killer, way too trendy.

"Look at those two girls, they don’t say a word after being victimized by your mom," Yu Jingting slapped Dongdong on the head.

Dongdong looked over at Jiaojiao and Luoluo and felt a bit more balanced.

The two girls had their hair styled into buns, one black, one white, matching the colors of the chess pieces, making their outfits look almost like personified chess pieces at first glance.

"Dad, I’m really jealous of you..." Dongdong muttered quietly.

The old man’s attire was rather normal, wasn’t it? A black leather jacket, paired with the currently fashionable side-parted hairstyle, he could be mistaken for some star from Hong Kong or Taiwan, looking incredibly cool.

It’s great to be an adult, not having to be dressed up like a mascot by mom.

Yu Jingting maintained a cool demeanor, but inside, he was thinking, "Ha."

That crazy wife of his had gotten him a pair of checkered boxer shorts—was that something he could tell these kids?

The competitor was Bobo, but Yu Jingting felt that his wife, with her head full of national glory, was even more nervous than Bobo.

She kept muttering that winning the championship would make history.

She seemed particularly obsessed with making history.

"You guys, stop muttering. After the match, these clothes will become fashionable soon enough," Suizi caught Dongdong tugging at his clothes and whispering to Yu Jingting from the corner of her eye, guessing the child must be criticizing her taste.

"Designed by your Great Auntie, how could they not look good? I even got in touch with the Cloth Factory..."

Thinking of this, Suizi felt smug again.

If Bobo could win, the camera would definitely focus on his family, and with a flicker, these clothes would become a hit.

Fashion trends, Suizi had already grasped the consumer psychology of the masses.

When a new style is introduced, the first wearer is the odd one out, labeled as a "foreigner wannabe" by the conservative crowd.

But once it becomes a trend, and everyone starts wearing it, word of mouth spreads, and those who once looked down upon it will unconsciously follow suit.

It’s all about who can set the trend.

The design was the work of Suizi’s Great Auntie, which trumped the current earthy pink for girls and army green for boys; black and white chessboards were much more fashionable.

Her children were all handsome boys and beautiful girls, conveniently fitting large, medium, and small sizes just right.

Aren’t they just walking models?

Suizi let out a couple of merchant-like chuckles, what she didn’t tell Yu Jingting was that yesterday she had asked the staff at the chess club to deliver a set to Bobo as well.

Wear it in the finals, that’s the best advertisement.

Suizi had already made arrangements with the Cloth Factory, and the sample plates for different styles were all prepared. She had negotiated an exclusive deal with them, rushing to buy fabrics overnight, with the Cloth Factory responsible for processing. She was just waiting for the tournament to end to launch a hit product and make a fortune.

Last night, Suizi sat cross-legged on the bed, calculating the profits and chuckling with greed.

Yu Jingting could only look at his wife, who seemed possessed by the spirit of a shrewd merchant, with indulgent eyes. After all, even he, a rugged man, had been fitted with those chessboard boxer shorts—what could he say?

Even the chessboard boxer shorts, Suizi was planning to mass-produce, determined to make a quick "Bobo-buck."

Of course, she wasn’t just a pure merchant. Suizi had thought it over; she planned to donate a portion of the profits from the clothing sales to the Go team, to ensure they had enough funding to train more young players like Bobo and bring glory to the country.

"He’s out!" Jiaojiao called out.

Bobo left the player area and walked by. Stopping, he looked over at Suizi, who immediately sensed something was off.

"Jingting," Suizi glanced at Bobo for a few seconds, her heart sinking, "something’s happened to Bobo."
