Chapter 704: Splashed!

Su Cunyi knew what she wanted to do, but he was too ashamed to go.
He wiped her face in frustration, feeling very tired. “It’s your first day being discharged from the hospital. You must be tired. Go home and rest first. If you want to go, I’ll go with you another day.”
However, Zhang Guihua was very persistent. “I can’t wait another day. That woman is really too despicable. I was deceived by her!”
After seeing Ning Lihua’s true colors, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that she had been too muddle-headed in the past. Compared to Ning Lihua’s ruthlessness, Xu Mingzhi was way better.
The later she admitted her mistake, the slimmer the hope would be. Now, Su Ji was the only hope of the Su family, the only heir. She could not continue to be muddleheaded!
Su Cunyi said, “if you want to go, go yourself. I’m too ashamed to go.”
Zhang Guihua said, “no, we have to go together to show our sincerity!”
Su Cunyi’s voice gradually became louder. “Our daughter is already a grown-up.
She has the freedom to be with whoever she wants. They are living well now. Please don’t disturb her!”
“Son, how can this be considered disturbing?” Zhang Guihua argued, “we’re not trying to take Su Ji from her. We’re just trying to explain things to her. In the future, we’ll love Su Ji together with her. Isn’t that good?”
“If you knew this would happen, why did you do it?” Su Cunyi spread out his hands. “You’ve already said such unpleasant words back then. What’s the use of explaining now?”
“Sir, Old Madam…’
The two of them could not stop arguing, and the driver’s weak voice was immediately drowned out by the argument.
At this moment, he was driving to the fork in the road that led to Madam Xu’s house and the Su family’s house. The two masters had different opinions. He turned the steering wheel, turning left and right at times.
Later, Zhang Guihua was about to vomit from the shaking. She finally looked at him. “Can you drive properly?!”
Only then did the two of them quiet down, giving the driver a chance to speak.
“Old Madam, are we going to Madam Xu’s house or not? If you want to go, I have to turn around at the next intersection…”
Su Cunyi: “No!”
Zhang Guihua: “Yes!”
The driver: ‘ .
In the end, he drove to the Xu family’s house.
However, Su Cunyi did have a glimmer of hope. If Xu Mingzhi was really willing to give face to the old lady who had just recovered from a serious illness, then he would also…
The car drove into the neighborhood. From afar, Su Cunyi saw a blue sports car
parked in front of the Xu family’s house.
Su Ji happened to be there too. After the filming ended, she went straight back to the Xu family to see Xu Mingzhi.
Su Cunyi really wanted to see his daughter. He helped Zhang Guihua out of the car and looked at the Xu family’s gate that was close at hand but far away. He sighed.
The first time he rang the doorbell, it was Aunt Wu who opened the door.
“Miss, please eat the cake first. I’ll go and see who’s here…”
“Thanks, Aunt Wu.’
When Aunt Wu opened the door, she was still smiling at the living room. However, when she turned around and saw Su Cunyi and Zhang Guihua, her smile suddenly stopped. “Mr. Su, Old Madam Su…”
Although this was Zhang Guihua’s first visit to the Xu family house, Aunt Wu still recognized her at a glance.
The two in front of her were the No. 1 and No. 2 on her madam’s black list.
She would recognize them even if they turned into ashes.
If this was any other day, any one of them would be scary enough. But today, two of them came at the same time.
Seeing her expression, Zhang Guihua’s smile was a little unnatural, but she calmed down and expressed her intention.
Her attitude was unprecedentedly good.
As she spoke, she looked inside. However, the Xu family’s sofa was at a corner from the entrance, and Aunt Wu used her body to block it. She couldn’t see her granddaughter, and her heart itched.
“Please wait a moment,” Aunt Wu said in a troubled tone. “Madam is in the study on the second floor. I’ll go up and inform her first.”
“That’s fine, but you have to tell her that Cunyi didn’t come alone. I came with him…” Before Zhang Guihua could finish, the door closed in front of her.
She felt a little awkward. Then, she tried to convince herself. “Look, if she’s going to tell her, it means that Mingzhi might still accept us.”
Su Cunyi didn’t listen to what she said. He kept looking at the window in the living room.
Thinking about it carefully, there were indeed several times when he came home. His daughter wanted to say something to him, but he did not listen because he was too busy.
At that time, he could see his daughter every day when he came home, but he did not cherish her. Now, he was separated from his daughter by a wall, but his daughter was not someone he could see whenever he wanted.
“As the saying goes, you shouldn’t hit a smiling person. You might not be able to do it alone, but that doesn’t mean both of us can’t. One plus one might not be equal to two, but it might be far greater than two. Although Mingzhi has a bad temper, she’s still very reasonable. I believe in her…”
With a creak, the door opened again.
Zhang Guihua looked over happily.
But she heard a short reminder, “get out of the way…”
Zhang Guihua took a closer look. Aunt Wu did not come back alone this time. She was carrying a bucket in her hand! The bucket was filled with water!
Although she said, “get out of the way”, the water was splashed at her!
Zhang Guihua did not have time to react. Fortunately, Su Cunyi quickly pulled her to the side.
The water splashed on Su Cunyi’s pants.
This was the biggest bucket in the Xu family’s house. There was also a smell.
Aunt Wu bowed apologetically. “I’m really sorry. This is the answer Madam asked me to give you!”
After saying that, she quickly closed the door, locked it, and drew the curtains.
After a series of moves, the two people outside the door could not see anything.
Zhang Guihua’s analysis was not wrong at all. Sometimes, one plus one did not necessarily equal two. It was very likely that it was far greater than two. For example, at this moment, Xu Mingzhi’s anger value…was far greater than if one of them came!
Inside the house, Xu Mingzhi had already come down from the second floor. She glanced at the bucket in Aunt Wu’s hand and saw that there were only a few drops of water left before she coldly looked away.
“How dare you come looking for my daughter. Aunt Wu, remember this. You don’t have to report to me next time.”
Aunt Wu squeezed the bucket in her hand nervously. “Yes, Madam…’
“Where’s my baby?” Xu Mingzhi didn’t hear her daughter’s voice since she came down. She looked around and asked Aunt Wu.
“Ah, Miss is eating a small cake on the sofa…”
Before she could finish, the two of them looked at the sofa at the same time.
Su Ji, who had not spoken for a long time, was lying flat on the sofa with her eyes closed. The book in her hand was placed on her chest, and the cake in her hand fell to the ground..
