Chapter 156: Greedy and Qualified
Their eyes fell on Su Wanyi's bowl of peeled, crystal clear grape flesh. In a trance, they seemed to see the clever and chubby little Su Su from childhood, smiling and calling them sweetly in front of them.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it..." Su Wanyi felt a deep sense of guilt in her heart.
She really didn't expect something like this to happen. She just subconsciously wanted to be nice to the old lady Su in front of her.
Ever since she first met Madam Su and Mr. Su, she had felt an inexplicable sense of intimacy with them. Even though Mr. Su spoke harshly to her at first, she still felt an inexplicable sense of dependence and intimacy towards him.
Later, Mrs. Su was so kind to her, and when she heard about the tragic story of the two elders, she wanted to be nice to them even more. She didn't expect that she would touch upon their sad story.
Madam Su took a deep breath, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, smiled with tears, and held Su Wanyi's hand tightly: "This is not your fault, don't blame yourself."
"Yes, it's not your fault, don't blame yourself." Old Su looked at Su Wanyi with more doting eyes. The more he looked at the person in front of him, the more she looked like his former daughter.
How great it would be if she was Su Su.
However, he had investigated her identity and found that she had biological parents, so it was impossible for her to be their Su Su.
Madam Su calmed down and brought the topic to the point: "My dear, whether we can find Su Su or not, we should get the adoption process of Yi Yi on track as soon as possible."
"Okay." In the past, Mr. Su was a little reluctant about his wife adopting Su Wanyi, thinking that it would be good for his wife to find someone to comfort her spiritually.
Anyway, the last thing the Su family lacks is money. At worst, they can give her a sum of money that is enough for her to live comfortably for the rest of her life. As long as she can make her husband happy, that's enough.
However, regarding what my husband said about adopting her and holding a cocktail party to formally introduce her to everyone, this is a different concept.
This is like the outside world acknowledging that she is a member of the Su family, and it is also telling others that she, Su Wanyi, is protected by the Su family from now on and will also be registered in the Su family. These are completely different concepts.
In the past, whenever my wife talked about this matter, he always procrastinated.
Today, looking at her eyes that overlapped with her long-dead daughter's in a trance under the sunlight, eyes as sincere and clear as Su Su's, he nodded: "Okay, you can book any date you want."
Old Madam Su's eyes lit up instantly. In the past, every time her husband heard her mention adoption, he would delay it as much as possible.
This time, he actually agreed.
Mr. Su sighed and said, "Perhaps, you are right."
Mrs. Su looked back at her husband with sparkling eyes, holding his hand tightly. She knew that her husband didn't want to hold this family recognition party because he hoped that Su Su would come back one day.
I am deeply afraid of the day when Susu will come back.
When Su Su sees such an adopted granddaughter, she will feel resentful.
It's just that I've been looking for him for more than ten years. If I could find him, I would have found him long ago. But it's been so long, it's hard to find him now.
They came back this time with the last bit of determination to look for her. If they really couldn't find her, they could return to their roots and be closer to Susu and their daughter.
He looked at Su Wanyi with a kind look in his eyes: "Yiyi, when are you free, please take some time to attend the banquet."
Su Wanyi looked at Pei Huan with a look for help. She actually didn't really want Mr. Su and the others to hold a family recognition party for her.
But I didn’t know how to start the conversation so as not to hurt the kindness of the two elders.
After a while of talking, he said to the two elders seriously: "Grandpa Su and Grandma Su, I don't want you to hold any family recognition party for the time being."
The two elders did not expect to be rejected, especially Elder Su, who did not expect to be rejected: "Do you know what the significance of your rejection of this cocktail party is?"
If it were Su Fugui's two children with bad intentions, after hearing what I said, not only would they refuse, they would have been eagerly waiting for them to hold an adoption ceremony right away.
Su Wanyi shook her head, not quite understanding, and said honestly: "I don't really understand the significance of rejecting this reception, and I don't know exactly how much you two are worth."
"Sister Pei told me that your Su Group was worth hundreds of billions more than a decade ago."
Old Su looked at Pei Huan standing beside him and saw Pei Huan nod.
"I also know a little bit. If you two elders acknowledge my existence to the outside world, I will be able to transform from a wild chicken into a phoenix, and reach a height that I can never reach in several lifetimes."
She didn't know the details, but she knew roughly.
Old Su was even more confused: "Since you already knew all this, why are you still refusing? Don't you like money?" He has been in the business world for so many years and has lived a lifetime, but he has never seen anyone who can refuse such huge wealth.
Su Wanyi smiled cheerfully: "No, I really, really like money." She pouted aggrievedly: "I work the late shift every day for my 7,000 or 8,000 yuan worth of money, and I am also embarrassed by my boss and patients. Who doesn't like money?"
"Then you refuse?" Mr. Su liked her honesty very much. The clarity and sincerity in her eyes did not mean she was lying.
"If I tell you that I hope you two will be happy, will you think I'm fake?" Su Wanyi said sincerely.
