Chapter 1098: Everyday Conversation

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Chen Yu let out an exaggerated sigh and said, "So, you see, there was never anything wrong with that plot of land. All those rumors—utter nonsense—completely ruined me. That’s why I ended up transferring the entire project to Su Shen. He’s always been the type who gets things done when others fail. He’s not someone whose mind you can easily guess."

He leaned in slightly, lowering his voice conspiratorially. "And don’t forget—Su Shen is famously henpecked. The main reason he bought that house was because of his wife’s schooling needs. She wanted a private compound, close to the Imperial Capital University, but also quiet—somewhere serene but convenient. That place was perfect. And yes, it was Su Shen who personally decided to buy it. I just scouted the location for him. Who could possibly make decisions for him, anyway?"

Chen Xi, now better informed, gave a small nod and said wryly, "Well, hearing that, I suppose you still have a sliver of conscience left."

...

Meanwhile, at the Su family’s new residence, the newly renovated kitchen was finally complete.

Gu Zi stood in the doorway, hands on her hips, looking thoroughly pleased with the results. Su Shen had gone off to pay the workers, so Gu Zi busied herself with the kids, tidying up the new space. The kitchen would soon be fully operational.

Right on cue, Big Yellow ambled into the kitchen. Seeing that his beloved humans were all gathered here, he settled down comfortably, making it clear he had no plans to leave.

Gu Zi, in a particularly good mood, was simmering a rich pork bone soup. She picked out a massive marrow bone and tossed it to Big Yellow, who caught it gleefully and began gnawing with visible joy. Watching him, Gu Zi couldn’t help but smile.

This place had few neighbors and a generous courtyard, which meant Gu Zi didn’t have to tie Big Yellow up every day. Most of the time, the dog could roam freely around the house, and that was a wonderful little luxury for both of them.

Under the blooming crabapple tree in the courtyard, Su Shen had commissioned a full marble table-and-chair set. It was the perfect shaded spot to lounge in during the summer.

Not only that, but he’d even hung a punching bag from one of the thick branches. Whenever he had spare time, Su Shen would sternly supervise the kids’ boxing training right there under the tree.

Su Li, for one, had filed numerous complaints to Gu Zi. "Mom, Dad is so different in front of you. When you’re not around, he’s like a completely different person! He makes me do all sorts of chores. You have to get back at him for me! Next time, you should make him do some chores instead!"

Gu Zi was tickled by her son’s indignation and whispered back with a chuckle, "Alright then, if I get the chance, I’ll definitely ask him to do something for us."

But the very next day, Su Li’s training regime suddenly escalated in difficulty. Still, he chose to believe it was all part of Dad’s "normal" training plan rather than accept the more painful truth—that his dear mother had betrayed him. Nowadays, his schedule was packed with daily workouts, his appetite was massive, and he was growing taller by the day.
