Even though Su Shen was feeling rather uneasy, there was no escaping Gu Zi’s question. He braced himself and replied, "Yes."
Gu Zi’s lips curled into a knowing smile. "You broke four of my flower pots today. And not just any pots—my carefully selected, custom-made ones. Yes, you bought replacements, but a little punishment is still in order. Tonight, you’ll be sleeping in Su Li’s room."
Su Shen felt his heart drop—again. With a wooden expression, he nodded in resignation.
Meanwhile, Su Li was positively thrilled. He barely stopped himself from shouting, "Mommy is amazing!" over the triumph.
The next few days, he threw himself into earning as many red flower stickers as possible. No one had to remind him about training anymore—he tied on his sandbags and got to work before anyone could say a word.
That afternoon, after Su Shen finished training his two sons, he received a phone call and had to head out. Though his workload wasn’t overwhelming, certain matters still required his personal attention. Lately, he had been a little busier than usual.
Su Li, fresh from training, was about to raid the kitchen for a snack when he caught movement across the street. His curiosity piqued, he turned to see the Xu father and son standing by their doorway, while two men were loading packed suitcases into a car. Forgetting his hunger, he bolted across the street.
Gu Zi, noticing Su Li’s sudden departure, followed him outside.
"Uncle Xu, where are you taking Xu Sheng?" Su Li blurted, eyes wide. "Mommy, come look! Xu Sheng looks like he’s leaving for a long trip."
Gu Zi raised an eyebrow but nodded at her son before turning to Xu Fan with a polite smile. "Mr. Xu, what’s all this?"

One of the best novels. A different touch, a change in usual billionaire's stories filled with cruelty and betrayals. Thank you author....
