Chapter 150 - Luo Chen’s Gift

After handing a pink velvet gift box to Su Su, Shen Qing got into the vehicle and left.

Before Su Su could react to Luo Chen’s gift, she subconsciously carried the gift box back inside. When Su Su arrived at the door, she looked at the exquisitely wrapped present and became curious, carefully opening it.

What greeted Su Su’s eyes was an extremely dazzling gold jade pendant. The gold jade pendant gave off a lustrous glow even though the sunlight was not shining brightly at the moment. One look and Su Su could tell that the gift was expensive.

Underneath the jade pendant was a note. Su Su took the note and was about to open it when she heard Su Jun’s puzzled voice echoing from above, “Su Su, what are you doing there?”

Su Su was stunned and answered honestly, “Luo Chen sent his servant to pass me a gift just now!”

Su Su held the note and couldn’t decide if she should open it or put it back into the box. She showed it to Su Jun and said in puzzlement, “There’s a note here, but I can’t read it.”

However, Su Su sensed that something personal might be written on the note and couldn’t help but feel worried.

Sure enough, Su Jun’s face darkened when he opened the note. He read the note to Su Su, “I sincerely thank you for your help, Su Su. It’s also an apology for when my dog scared you last time.”

“Su Su, when did his dog scare you?” Su Jun glared at Su Su in puzzlement, causing Su Su to get nervous.

“Umm…” Su Su braced herself for an inevitable scolding. The little girl knew she couldn’t hide the fact that she almost got mauled to death by a dog when she snuck out with Su Qian. Su Su could only tell her big brother the truth, “I snuck out to go and play when we were at the villa.”

“Did you go alone, or were Su Qian and Su Qiao there?” Su Jun frowned and asked.

“About that…” Su Su twiddled her thumbs, feeling conflicted.

Su Su knew that Su Jun wouldn’t punish her if she made a mistake. But the little girl knew that it would be cumbersome if she mentioned that she had snuck out with Su Qian when Ah Shan wasn’t looking.

Su Su braced herself and said, “I-I forgot…”

Then Su Qian walked out and called Su Su. Su Qian had just entered a room and was shocked when she heard Su Jun questioning Su Su.

Su Qian didn’t hesitate to admit, “Su Jun, I was the one who convinced Su Su to sneak out of the villa. It’s not her fault.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Su Su sighed with sadness after seeing Su Qian behave heroically. ‘Great, now we’re both going to suffer Big Brother’s wrath.’

Su Jun felt helpless when he noticed Su Qian and Su Su’s guilty expressions. He smacked Su Su’s forehead in amusement and said in a deep voice, “You’re such a smartypants, aren’t you? Why did you lie to me?”

After saying that, Su Jun’s expression became serious. He looked at Su Qian and said coldly, “Tell me what happened, Su Qian.”

Su Qian instantly became nervous. Her body stiffened as she explained what happened to her and Su Su after they snuck out of the villa. Su Qian also emphasized how terrifying Luo Chen’s enormous Tibetan Mastiff was.

Su Jun’s face darkened when he heard what had happened. He looked like he was going to lose his temper at any moment.

Looking at the honest and brave Su Qian, Su Su wanted to cry but had no tears. ‘If Luo Chen wanted to give me a gift, he should have done it more discreetly. I told him not to tell Su Jun about the dog, so why did he have to write a note about it?’ Su Su hurriedly elaborated before Su Jun could say anything, “Big Brother, it was Su Qian and me who snuck out when Ah Shan wasn’t looking. Please don’t scold Ah Shan.”

Su Su would feel bad if Su Jun scolded Ah Shan for what she and Su Qian did. Su Qian quickly lowered her head and apologized profusely, “I know I was wrong, Su Jun. Please don’t blame Su Su and Ah Shan. It’s all my fault that Su Su almost got hurt.”
