Chapter 1609: You Said You Wouldn’t Mind Me 26

Chapter 1609: Chapter 1609: You Said You Wouldn’t Mind Me 26

One life to another, from kindergarten to high school.

She took on everything, from being a mom to being a sister.

Including attending parent-teacher meetings, listening to teachers analyze students’ performance, and handling school admissions.

She was very proficient in all of it.

More proficient than in any job she had ever done.

Soon, Su Yan arrived at Su Gu’s classroom.

Grade ten, class one.

The teacher briefly analyzed Su Gu’s entrance exam paper.

And complimented the child along the way.

Had Su Yan sign a paper, indicating she could trust them to take care of the child.

After finishing, the teacher returned to the office.

Su Gu stood next to Su Yan in his school uniform.

He spoke,

"I’m going to class now."

Su Yan looked at him.

Her mood was somewhat inexplicable.

She had watched him grow from elementary school up to now.

She witnessed his growth.

It felt quite wondrous.

Something she had never experienced before.

Su Gu opened his mouth,

"I don’t know why they insisted on you signing.

I just felt it should be you."

Su Yan nodded.

"Yes, indeed."

The word guardian suited only her.

They exchanged simple words.

Afterwards, Su Yan left and walked out of the school.

Su Gu, meanwhile, returned to his place for class.

Su Yan walked out of the school and drove away.

Outside, Jun Yu’s car was parked at the entrance.

He looked at this school.

His gaze flickered with uncertainty, not knowing what he was thinking.

The next time Su Yan saw Jun Yu was three days later.

It was still about that cooperation proposal.

Due to Mr. Su’s repeated pleas, Zheng Luan decided to give Mr. Su one more chance.

They met in the conference room at two o’clock that afternoon.

Su Yan was called again because of this matter.

When she arrived, both sides had brought a large lineup of people.

In the meeting room, the long table was occupied equally by both sides.

Chairman Su probably summoned all the talents from the company.

His purpose was to settle this cooperation proposal without giving up.

When Su Yan arrived, she witnessed the tense confrontation between the two parties.

Chairman Su was present personally.

He skillfully reconciled while speaking for his side.

Neither side yielded to the other.

When Su Yan appeared, Chairman Su looked over, smiled, and stood up to speak,

"Xiao Yan, you’re here."

As he spoke, he waved to Su Yan.

Then he said to Zheng Luan,

"I believe the two of you have met before. I don’t need to introduce further. Xiao Yan is the most steady and reliable among my daughters."

His words were full of gratification.

It seemed Mr. Su completely forgot that Su Yan was currently on leave.

Forced to stop, contemplating the mistakes she’d made at home.

Across the table, Zheng Luan spoke,

"Honored to meet you."

Su Yan looked over.

He was unusually dressed neatly.

Even wearing the suit jacket he usually disliked.

His hand hung below the table, out of sight.

Until someone next to him spoke a few words to him.

Then handed a document to Zheng Luan.

Only then did he raise his hand and sign.

When he raised his hand, you could see his right hand was severely swollen.

Three days had passed, and the burn showed no signs of healing.

It even seemed to be getting worse.

Su Yan’s attention fell on his hand.

She didn’t particularly want to intervene.

Such a grown person.

If he lived this long, he’d surely be able to take care of himself.

Such a minor burn would heal in a couple of days.

But she recalled what she’d just seen.

The hand was so badly swollen, it resembled a bun.

Red to the point of purpling.
