Mr. Su's Love Investigation Report
Chapter 145 Fatal Question

Chapter 145: Chapter 145 Fatal Question

"Wasn’t I at the hospital with you last night?"

"Really? I thought you came in the morning." Grandma’s tone was a bit disappointed, and she added, "Gugu, actually, Grandma is fine now, you don’t need to come at night anymore."

He smiled slightly, not contradicting Grandma, but he also had no intention of doing as she said. As for last night? If it weren’t for taking Tu Hengsha home and then being called back to the Su family by Mom’s phone call that lasted half the night, he wouldn’t have had to come to the hospital after Grandma fell asleep in the middle of the night.

Thinking of last night’s events, he frowned slightly, but just for a moment, as he quickly moved on. In front of him was Tu Hengsha’s flushed cheeks, as bright as the morning glow on the horizon outside the window.

She noticed him looking at her and leaned in to ask, "Do you think I’m actually quite beautiful?" Didn’t he always say she’s ugly? If she’s ugly, why look at her?

He laughed, "Your face is red like a monkey’s butt!"

Tu Hengsha: "..."

Grandma Xu: "..."

Sister Qian and Xiao Guo: "..."

Grandma Xu had a headache and finally understood why her grandson was still single at his age. She hurriedly tried to salvage the situation, "Little Sha, don’t listen to him talking nonsense! He just likes to say the opposite! He’s just shy to compliment a girl’s beauty."

"Really?" Tu Hengsha was still quite doubtful.

Recently, Ronggui had been getting more skilled with one-handed activities. While talking, he had already peeled a boiled egg and handed it to Tu Hengsha’s mouth.

When she was hospitalized in Jin County, he kept feeding her like this, so she got quite used to it. Having not slept all night, she was a bit groggy, so even though she had already eaten breakfast, she subconsciously opened her mouth and took a bite when food was brought close to her mouth. However, she firmly said, "No yolk!"

Ronggui said nothing, shook the yolk into his own bowl, and stuffed the remaining egg white into her mouth.

Sister Qian’s breakfast spread was quite generous, but Grandma Xu only drank porridge, watching the two young ones laugh as she sipped.

Ronggui hurriedly shoveled food, and although Tu Hengsha had had breakfast, she was stuffed with more by him. As they got up to prepare for work, she felt her belly was bulging.

"I’ve eaten too much!" She shot him a sidelong glance, full of resentment.

He was just about to give Sister Qian some instructions but responded to her first, "There’s an animal, you know, that eats whatever it’s given!"

"Don’t say it! I know what you’re talking about!" Wasn’t he just implying a pig? To him, she was either a pig or a dog—slightly frustrated...

Grandma laughed, "Girls should eat more! Too skinny! A little plumper looks better!"

"A little plumper... wouldn’t that resemble that animal even more?" Ronggui gave her a once-over.

"Mr. Su!" She had to protest!

But Mr. Su said to Sister Qian, "Sister Qian, don’t just boil the eggs in water tomorrow, steam them as custard."

"Okay!" Sister Qian replied.

Tu Hengsha remembered the egg yolk she didn’t eat and glanced back at his bowl, which was empty. So, did he eat it? For some reason, her heart started racing.

While waiting for the subway, Tu Hengsha was preoccupied with something. She searched for a picture online and showed it to him, "Look, look. Is she pretty?" The picture featured a very beautiful actress.

He stood behind her, observing every one of her movements. He had been watching since she started searching for the picture. Now, he glanced at it, "Pretty." Yet he tried hard not to let the smile on his lips show.

Tu Hengsha was even more frustrated. Mr. Su’s sense of beauty was sound! And he didn’t seem to talk in contradictions like Grandma said!

The subway arrived, and she and he squeezed into the car with the crowd.

Squeezed like sandwich filling among the crowd, she and he stood face-to-face.

She wanted to protect his arm, but he stopped her, "No need, just stand firm yourself."

She looked carefully and indeed seemed unable to harm him. She, too, quite weary, gave up.

As the subway moved, it swayed a bit.

She had always had this issue—she easily fell asleep in transit. Having stayed up all night, she was feeling drowsy with the gentle sway, standing but almost dozing off. Initially, she tried to hold herself together, but after two stations, she couldn’t. Her eyelids started drooping, and she got more muddled, eventually nodding off onto his chest.

Hastily, she stood straight, forcing herself to stay alert, but soon she was dozing again.

Repeatedly, he finally pressed her head, letting her lean against his chest, "Just sleep, just sleep. Considering you were busy writing and editing the whole night, let you sleep for a bit."

Having a support point, it was much more comfortable. She yawned, settled in, and drifted off when she heard him say, "Sleep now, because you’ll start writing and editing again after getting to the news agency."

"..." In her haze, she wanted to say, Mr. Su really was like Huang Shiren...

She was wide awake upon reaching the news agency.

There’s no way not to be awake! She had to head out to report!

She had been teamed up with Hao Ren lately, spending almost the entire day out reporting, then returned to edit videos and write articles—it truly aligned with what Mr. Su said!

When leaving the news agency after working overtime at night, the moon was already high in the sky.

She yawned, rubbed her face, and forcibly drove away the sleepiness.

"Let’s chat, or you’ll fall asleep standing there!" Hao Ren suggested.

Could she not fall asleep standing? She had slept the whole way this morning! However, when it came to chatting, a thought struck her, and she quickly took out the picture she found in the morning to ask Hao Ren, "Look at this picture, is it beautiful?"

"Beautiful!" Hao Ren answered honestly.

Wow! Same taste as Mr. Su!

"Then look at me! How do I look?" She pointed to herself.

"You, compared to her?" Hao Ren felt it was a death quiz, his sleepiness vanishing.

"Yes, yes! According to you, what’s different when comparing me to her?"

"Well..." Hao Ren carefully picked his words, "There’s no comparison, different temperaments. She’s glamorous! You’re cute!"

Tu Hengsha was deflated, "It’s said when you truly can’t find words to compliment a girl’s beauty, you call her cute!"

"..." It really was a death sentence! "No, Little Sha, you’re also very pretty, that’s a fact! If we talk about just the face, both you and she have your merits, really not much difference. Maybe with some makeup, you’d even be more photogenic than her!"

"Then what’s lacking?" She stopped and glared at him, implying she wouldn’t let him leave without an explanation.

"..." Hao Ren glanced at her chest, "Well... the difference between women and women... probably just like a big bun and a small bun... no man doesn’t love a big bun..."

"Hao Ren!" Tu Hengsha had an amazing sense of realization and immediately understood what he meant, feeling like stomping on his heart!

Hao Ren sprinted away, but after just one step, he stopped because a certain Mr. Su was standing right under the streetlight.
