  Su San's Little Temper

  An Yan didn't expect Su San, who was usually taciturn, to say such touching words at this moment. His resolute and determined gaze, his lingering tone of voice, made An Yan's heart beat faster and faster.

  What if I suddenly disappeared one day?

  Her voice was soft and gentle, as if it came from afar, faintly falling on Su San's ears.

  Then my heart will also disappear with it...

  Su San's large hands tightened further, the force almost embedding An Yan into his bones. An Yan remained silent in Su San's arms, her heart filled with an indescribable emotion, as if she wanted to burst out and express it all.

  As if possessed by a mischievous spirit, An spoke stretched out her slender hands and gently wrapped them around Su San's robust waist. She lightly pressed her head against Su San's chest, quietly listening to his similarly racing heartbeat, and felt at ease, feeling content.

  Two people quietly hugged each other, suddenly unaware of how much time had passed.

  Have you eaten?

  Bai Ping came over to call the two of them to eat, but unexpectedly the door wasn't closed and opened with just a push.

  In an instant, the embracing figures were reflected in his eyes, and he suddenly opened his mouth wide.

  What's going on? Why is Su San wearing no top and why are two people hugging each other in the morning.

  Upon hearing that exclamation, An Yan hastily retreated from Su San's embrace, her face slightly flushed, with a hint of spring in her eyes.

  Su San suddenly felt a sense of loss and regret, what a rare opportunity it was. He immediately turned around and with a whooshing sound, his knife-like eyes were beckoning towards Bai Ping's body.

  Bai Ping was unclear, so he suffered a bit of icy blade's torture. Seeing this situation, he was also quite embarrassed, his face turned red, and he muttered: I, I didn't see anything. That, that can eat breakfast now.

  As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Ping ran away quickly.

  Inside the room, An Yan and Su San both had their heads slightly lowered.

  Let's go eat.

  At this time, if I don't go out now, when mother and aunt come later, it will be even more embarrassing.

  Yes.

  Su San gruffly responded with a "yes", then quickly got dressed.

  All day long, An Yan subconsciously avoided Su San. Su San's heart was also stuffy and didn't know why, he didn't dare to make any more moves, afraid of startling An Yan.

  Although An Yan deliberately avoided Su San, occasionally seeing him still made her blush and heartbeat. After that somewhat chaotic night, some things were put on the surface, and she finally had to start proving certain things.

  Two days later, An Yan thought of going to Hsinchu County to see how the Wu family was doing. He just remembered that he had promised Su San that from now on, whatever happened, they would face it together. So, after pacing back and forth in his room for a while, he still ended up in the backyard.

  Looking at Su San standing quietly facing the wall, An Yan felt uneasy and stepped forward, saying softly: I want to go to the county to take a look at the situation of Wu's family shops, do you want to come together?

  As soon as he finished speaking, Su San suddenly turned his head around, and a pair of black pupils flashed with dazzling light.

  Yes.

  He responded with a low "en", and then the two of them didn't know what else to say.

  Since the Bai family had a cow cart, it was much more convenient for An Yan to go to the county. Now, Su San was driving the cow cart in front, and An Yan sat behind him. Looking at the broad shoulders in front of her, An Yan felt that those shoulders could let her rely on them, that man could shield her from the wind and rain.

  The breeze blew gently, lifting her soft hair, and her hair fluttered lightly, as if her heart was also soaring at this moment.

  Unconsciously, she shifted her body slightly forward, quietly drawing closer to the man.

  They arrived at the county, and the two first found a place to park their ox cart, then walked along the street. On the one hand, they could take a good look at whether there were things to buy, and on the other hand, they could check out the situation of Wu's shops under his name. Those drawings given to Zhao Li that day, as long as Zhao Li still had some intelligence left, he would know how to handle them. In the face of interests, nothing was inviolable. And in the face of such huge interests, the county magistrate would not stand idly by, and Zhao Li's side would certainly not let go easily either. The huge benefits handed out by An Yan had pulled the nerves of the three major forces in Hsinchu County, quietly weaving an invisible net for them.

  As she walked down the street, An Yan discovered that Zhao's jewelry and clothing stores were doing extremely well. Although Zhao Li was not wise enough and didn't have a good vision, he still had some petty cleverness. Just like last time when An Yan suggested giving away gifts to promote chrysanthemum cake, Zhao Li also applied it well to his other businesses.

  In comparison with the thriving business of Zhao's shop, Wu's shop was extremely bleak.

  An Yan and Su San arrived at a pawnshop under the Wu family's name, An Yan looked at the desolate scene with curved eyebrows and eyes, feeling only a sense of satisfaction.

  But such an expression, however, was directly dashed into Wu Kai's eyes, who had just walked out of the door with a troubled mind.

  Wu Kui has been extremely annoyed these days, because the Wu family business has plummeted. It's not clear what's going on with the Zhao family, but their new and good products are endless, making their business incredibly prosperous. As a result, they have directly taken away countless businesses from the Wu family. At this rate, within half a month, the Wu family will be facing financial difficulties. Within a month, it will be difficult for the Wu family to stand firm in Hsinchu County. It seems that the Zhao family is targeting the Wu family, because their thriving businesses are all the main businesses of the Wu family.

  Wu Kai's head was so annoyed that he almost wanted to kill someone. In such a situation, however, he saw his arch-nemesis An Yan laughing happily at the door of his own store. That smile, which was clearly bright and radiant, seemed to Wu Kai to be full of sarcasm, making him even angrier.

  At this moment, Wu Kai's entire face turned gloomy. This was not Green Bamboo Village, but Xinzhu County, and it was right in front of the Wu family store. Wasn't this Wu Kai's territory? And yet this woman dared to mock him so brazenly, which was a great humiliation.

  Wu Kai's eyes were venomous and sinister as he stared at An Yan, his gaze almost solidifying into something that could pierce holes in An Yan and Su San.

  That intense and cold gaze, An Yan also felt it, she turned her head, her eyes directly met Wu Ke's gaze. Now, the Zhao family and the Wu family are already destined to be at odds. So, the current Wu family is no longer a threat, the once prosperous Wu family is just slowly waiting for death.

  So it's Mr. Wu Kai? Mr. Wu Kai must be very leisurely, looking at it, there aren't even any customers coming in.

  Listening to these words of comfort, Wu Kei clenched his fists in anger, almost biting his teeth to pieces.

  You must be blind, don't you know where this is? You actually dare to come here? It's really "heaven has a road that you don't take, hell has no door that you insist on breaking through". Come on, I won't let you leave until you're knocked down.

  As soon as Wu Kai shouted, more than a dozen sturdy men wearing boxing attire rushed out.

  At a glance at this array, he hastily turned his head and asked Su San in a low voice, "Can these people be dealt with?"

  When he heard the question, Su San slightly raised his eyes and scanned the dozen or so people on that side with a faintly cold gaze, his eyes were arrogant and indifferent, not putting these small fries in his eyes at all.

  In the blink of an eye.

  The answer was concise and to the point, and upon hearing it, her eyes lit up. She found that having Su with her wasn't a bad thing after all - this was indeed a good man who would help carry things when shopping and fight off trouble for her.

  With a sense of reliance in her heart, her expression suddenly lit up, and she gazed calmly at those thugs before smiling slyly at Wu Kai: "Are you sure you want to take action? I'm afraid when it's time to pay the medical bills, you'll regret it."

  When he heard this, Wu Kai burst out laughing, a laugh that was wild and cruel.

  Are you thinking too much? Even if I were to beat the two of you to death here, this young master wouldn't spend a single cent, let alone medical expenses.

  An softly shook his head and sighed: You're wrong, what I mean is that when these thugs get hurt later, don't be stingy with the medical expenses. I'm thinking for your own good, but you're not appreciative, so don't regret it later.

  After finishing speaking, An Yan tilted her head, smiled gently, and said "Su San, come on."

  Yes.

  As soon as An Yan's words fell, Su San's men immediately rushed out. The speed was so fast that even An Yan standing beside him couldn't see clearly. Let alone Wu Kei and those thugs, they were also unlucky enough to not see the people clearly, one by one had already been knocked to the ground.

  Wu Kai's eyelid twitched. At first, he only thought that the cold-faced man was quite skilled. Now it seems that he is not just good, but a master.

  Do you still have any king's law? You dare to commit violence on the street, beware of prison disaster.

  When An Yan heard Wu Kei mention the disaster of imprisonment, her eyes flashed with cold light. She thought of Bai Qi and Bai An, it was because of the greed of the person in front of her that there was a disaster in the White family. At this moment, An Yan's gaze was very cold, and her face was icy. Looking at Wu Kei, her eyes were so cold that they almost froze him on the spot.

  Are you sure this matter has blown up and we will be the ones who end up in jail, rather than your Wu family?

  An's words fell into Wu Kei's ears, startling him so much that his whole body trembled. Now the old master of the Zhao family's illness depended entirely on An's own life, and the Zhao family and the county magistrate would certainly support An. As for their Wu family, they were now at a loss to defend themselves, where did they have the energy and money to bribe the county government?

  We will meet again in half a month.

  It's estimated that a month should be enough for the Zhao family and the county magistrate to join forces and take down the Wu family. To speed up the development of events, all that needs to be done is to go to the Zhao residence and add fuel to the fire in Zhao Li's heart.

  Is it? I also think so, we will see each other again in half a month.

  When Wu Kai heard this, he also sneered continuously. At that time, Wu Wen had already invited the retired imperial physician to come over, and at that time, see what An Yan could rely on. Without the protection of the Zhao family and the county magistrate, one hand was enough to crush her to death.

  Let's look forward to it together then.

  Wu Kai's eyes were venomous, the smile at the corner of his lips was sinister and cruel. He was staring fiercely at An Yan when he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine, cold to the bone. Following the feeling, he found the direction where the chill came from, and saw Su San staring at him with a dark face.

  He actually dared to look at the little woman with that kind of gaze, it's really infuriating. Su San angrily stepped forward two steps, and when Wu Kei had no reaction at all, he kicked him over with one foot.

  At that moment, Wu Ke's proud chin dislocated again. This time, Wu Ke didn't even have the strength to crawl up, and he lay on the ground with his face twisted in a terrifying manner.

  What's going on?

  The commotion here is really too big, and before long, a large team of yamen runners rushed over. When the leading yamen runner saw that the person lying on the ground was Wu Kei and the Wu family's thugs, his originally stern face revealed a strange smile. He came to Wu Kei's side, squatted down, and smiled warmly: Young Master Wu Kei, are you okay?

  Wu Kei was furious at this moment, completely unaware of anything unusual, thinking that help had arrived. After all, in the past, he hadn't hesitated to beat up the leader of the local constabulary, and they had even shared a few drinks together, their relationship wasn't bad at all.

  Yebao you are here, hurry up and catch those two people, they are fighting on the street.

  Ye Bao heard this and a hint of interest flashed in his eyes, but he said seriously: "Mr. Wu Kai misunderstood, it was clearly you who wanted to commit murder on the street, they only fought back for self-protection."

  What?

  Wu Kei couldn't believe it, he was clearly the victim, why would it be like this? In the past, even if he pointed to a deer and called it a horse, the officials in front of him would cooperate extremely well, so why is it like this now.

  The constable saw Wu Kei's incredulous expression and said kindly: Mr. Wu Kei, I'm letting you off because of our friendship; otherwise, I would have had to throw you into jail. If an ordinary person were to talk like that on the street, he would certainly be given thirty lashes and then thrown into prison.

  Upon hearing this, Wu Kai almost spat out a mouthful of blood. At this moment, he seemed to understand the pain that Bai Qi and Bai An had endured back then.

  An Yan stood there, gazing at the scene before her eyes, but felt it was not enough, far from enough. She wanted Wu Kai to experience the suffering that her uncle and second cousin had endured.

  Ye Bao indifferently said a few words to Wu Kai, then ignored him and instead stood up and walked towards An Yan and Su San.

  As soon as he saw this person, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he thought to himself what role this Yebao was playing in the affairs of his uncle and second cousin.

  Is Su Gongzi and Madam Su okay?

  That official put on a smile when facing An Yan and Su San. The two people in front of him didn't have any background, but they had good medical skills. That was enough, enough for Ye Bao to be satisfied.

  An softly smiled and handed a silver ingot to Ye Bao, taking advantage of the opportunity to turn around, her movements were smooth and natural, and outsiders couldn't see anything.

  Thanks to Ye's timely arrival, otherwise we would have been in great danger.

  As soon as he said that, Ye Bao's mouth twitched slightly. If they had come later, Wu Kai would have been in big trouble. However, by saying so, they were actually giving him face, and he wouldn't be foolish enough to expose them.

  It's all due to the great blessings of Master Su and Madam Su.

  "My wife and I still have business at the Zhao residence, we can't delay any longer. Next time there's an opportunity, I'll definitely invite Captain Ye to drink a cup of water wine."

  Ye Bao didn't say anything, just smiled and bid farewell.

  The two walked on the road to Zhao's house, but Su San had a gloomy look. An Yan was thinking about something at first and didn't notice, after a while he noticed it and asked strangely: What's wrong?

  Su San finally noticed himself when he heard An Yan's words and stopped in his tracks, turning around to look at An Yan.

  An Yan felt a bit unnatural under Su San's gaze, and touched his own face. Why was he looking at me like that? Had I done something terribly wrong to offend Su San just now?

  Her eyebrows jumped slightly, the corners of her mouth curled up with a playful arc, and her eyes sparkled mischievously. She suddenly realized that sometimes Su San was lovably stubborn.

  Not allowed to accompany other men from now on?

  Huh?

  What does this sentence mean? She didn't seem to care earlier either.

  If you want to give me money, I'll take it.

  Su San looked at the little woman with a puzzled expression and muttered.

  This time, An Yan seems to have understood, but is Su San being jealous or is his male chauvinism acting up again?

  I didn't touch his hand.

  Almost bumped into each other.

  Su San gritted his teeth and said, with a hint of annoyance on his face.

  What's your attitude? Just because of this small matter, you're speaking loudly to me, aren't you?

  An Yan thinks Su San's behavior needs to change, otherwise he'll keep making progress and she won't even need to leave the house. An Yan finally understood that Su San's ultimate goal is to keep her by his side, out of sight from any other man.

  Su San Yu died, he didn't raise his voice much, and when talking to her, he was always very careful. If it were someone else, his voice wouldn't be so soft. If Zhang Jun were to evaluate Su San's tone just now, it would really be considered gentle and full of warmth.

  I didn't mean it, I was just advising you.

  Su San thought for half a day before squeezing out these few words.

  But An Yan was dissatisfied, raised an eyebrow and said: You say you don't like me touching other men, what about you? What if I said I also don't like you touching other women, how would you handle it?

  It's unbelievable, in ancient times under such a big dye vat, how could he still manage to not become (dyed)?

  Then I will never touch it.

  An Yan slightly widened his eyes, Su San thought An Yan didn't believe him, so he added again: Not even if I die.

  What about before?

  Anny thinks that no one can predict what will happen in the future, but as for past events, she doesn't believe that such a big man has never been with a woman, she wouldn't believe it even if you killed her.

  Unfortunately, Su San was serious and looked up at An Yan saying: I've never touched anyone before, I only want to touch you.

  An Wen's face turned red at Su San's latter half of the sentence, and he hastily looked around to find that many people were already staring at them. Every gaze was filled with interest, looking at them as if they were a quarreling young couple. An Wen couldn't bear everyone's curious gazes, so he quickly pulled Su San away.

  We'd better hurry up, otherwise we won't have time to go home for dinner.

  Su San, however, refused to leave and persisted in saying: You haven't agreed with me yet?

  An Yan's face suddenly turned pale, and her cheeks slowly climbed up with a red glow.

  How can this be agreed upon, agreeing to let him touch himself? Such things, if the feelings are not deep enough, will naturally come about on their own. Could it be that the first time for the two of them was discussed and decided on in the middle of the street? Just thinking about it makes An Yan feel like thunder is rolling, and she cannot bear to look directly at him.

  Got it!

  Soft words bitten teeth lightly rebuked, eyes angrily stared, Su San was taken aback for a moment. However, although being bewildered for a brief moment, Su San quickly regained his composure and continued to be stubborn.

  You have to promise me.

  Su San just stood there, refusing to leave, his eyes fixed and stubborn, as if he wouldn't budge unless An Yan agreed to his demands. Looking at Su San's unyielding expression, An Yan couldn't help but rub his temples in frustration. What was going on here? Su San, didn't you think your request was a bit excessive?

  Not bad!

  Su San's face turned darker as he gritted his teeth. He thought to himself, "I'm just not letting you touch other men, what's wrong with that?" This demand would be reasonable for an ordinary woman, but when it came to his little wife, he had to resort to using tactics he hadn't used in a long time to force her to agree. This tactic of staying put and refusing to budge was something he had last used on Su Lao Tai more than 20 years ago, when he was just six years old. Now, after all these years, it was being reused, and the situation was truly unbearable, like a river flowing eastward, unable to turn back.

  An Yan was about to go crazy, looking at Su San standing there, like a child who didn't get any candy. And she was that heartless mom who wouldn't buy candy for her kid...

  Little girl, whatever your husband wants to buy, just buy it for him. Don't be too stingy with money.

  At this time, a middle-aged woman walked by and saw the two people's confrontation, as well as their words, so she kindly came over to mediate.

  Upon hearing this, An Yan felt that it wasn't just the corner of his mouth twitching, but his entire face was twitching. Under the bright daylight, An Yan also felt his face heat up and hurriedly said: "It's not like that, my wife and I had a small disagreement, but it's already resolved, we'll leave now, thank you for your kind intentions, Auntie."

  That aunt listened and looked at Su San's big son, and suddenly felt that she should have been mistaken. Su San, such a big man standing on the road, if it was really because his wife didn't buy him things, then it would be somewhat dramatic and ridiculous.

  The aunt left, and An Yan's heart was also ignited. She turned her head and glared at Su San with a fierce gaze, then quickly walked away. She wanted to see if Su San would still be standing there when she came out of the Zhao residence.

  She had just taken a few steps when her hand was caught by Su San.

  You haven't agreed with me yet.

  With a gloomy and depressed expression, this person is indeed stubborn. What exactly do you want?

  Don't touch other men from now on!

  Su San insisted, repeating his words again. As he spoke, his black eyes were firm and unyielding, with a hint of anger on his face. The little woman didn't agree with him, did she have some other idea in her mind? Thinking of that possibility, Su San felt like his heart was burning with anxiety. If that situation arose, he would...

  He beat up that guy!
