Chapter 145
Sui Yan opened the selfie camera while muttering, "Sui Yan is the most handsome!"
But after staring at herself on the phone for a full minute, she quietly put the phone down.
Shen Nian raised an eyebrow, "What's wrong? Aren't you going to take a selfie?"
Sui Yan couldn't help but touch her own face, "Nian Nian, my face is so chubby."
Her face is so round! No wonder she doesn't look handsome!
Ye Anning pinched Sui Yan's face, feeling the soft, chubby cheeks of the little girl, and she contentedly narrowed her eyes, "Not chubby, not chubby. Sui Yan, this is just baby fat, it'll go away when you grow up."
Sui Yan looked doubtful, "Really? Then why didn't your face look round when you were little?"
Sui Yu glanced at her sister, "Where are you chubby? Your arms and legs are so thin."
Sui Yan sighed and touched her face again, "But the flesh all goes to my face."
Shen Nian said seriously, "Sui Yan, you're not chubby, you're just adorably swollen!"
Sui Yan's expression was complicated, "Then why is only my face swollen?"
Xu Mo stood at the bottom of the stairs and called upstairs, "Sister! Dad and I baked little bear cookies! With chocolate filling!"
Sui Yan naturally put Sui Zhi's phone in her own pocket, then ran downstairs, "Coming!"
Ye Anning and Shen Nian exchanged a glance, then both looked away, shaking their heads in helplessness.
By the time they slowly went downstairs, Sui Yan had already started eating.
"Chocolate-filled little bear cookies! Nice!" Sui Yan raised her hand, holding a small cookie. After saying that, she ate the little cookie in one bite.
Xu Yi stood at the entrance of the dining room, glanced at the two children, and then returned to the kitchen to continue preparing snacks.
A little while later, Liu Hua and Qiao Ze came back, and everyone was quite curious to see their calm demeanor.
Sui Yan clutched a handful of cookies and ran up to Liu Hua, "Mom, do you want some cookies?"
Liu Hua casually took one from her hand, "You kids are living quite comfortably at home, huh."
Sui Yan turned to look at Qiao Ze, "Mom, did Aunt Lin and Uncle Shen say anything?"
Liu Hua hugged her daughter and walked towards the living room, "Little kids shouldn't ask so many questions."
Sui Yan obediently ate her cookies, "Oh."
Qiao Ze didn't say much either, just giving Shen Nian a reassuring look.
Shen Nian felt that her own dad probably wouldn't go too far, so she let it go.
Sui Zhi sighed helplessly and sat down next to his sister, "So your matters all have a lead, and I'm the only one still struggling, huh?"
Liu Hua gave him a sideways glance, "Is that how you use that phrase?"
Sui Yan had Sui Zhi's phone in her pocket, so she took it out and looked at it, "Brother, a lot of people have sent you messages."
Sui Zhi glanced at it, "Anyway, there's no good news, people outside might be spreading rumors that I was arrested because of drugs."
Qi Linhan nodded seriously, "You guessed pretty accurately. There are already a bunch of marketing accounts posting stuff to smear you."
Sui Yu frowned slightly, "Looks like there are quite a few people who can't stand us, huh."
Sui Yan didn't know why they were so worried, leisurely eating her little cookies and drinking her iced cola, "But Brother went to the police station because someone hit me with their car, right? Just clarify that and it'll be fine."
Without even thinking, Sui Zhi refused, "No, there are too many people watching me and Brother, what if something really happens? It'll definitely implicate you."
He didn't want his sister to be hurt because of him again.
Sui Yan felt that everyone was discriminating against her, "But Brother ended up like this because of me, right?"
Sui Yu frowned slightly, "Little kids shouldn't worry about all that, just eat your little cookies."
Liu Hua took a big sip of her daughter's iced cola, "I think Sui Yan has a point, though. I know you're trying to protect her, but if you don't let her do anything now, she'll feel really guilty."
Sui Yan smugly humphed, "See! Mom understands me best!"
Sui Yu lowered his head, thinking for a while before sending out a few more messages.
Seeing that they still weren't responding to her, Sui Yan grumbled and decided to handle it herself, "If you're not going to say anything, then I'll do it myself. I'll post on Sui Zhi's Weibo using his phone!"
Sui Zhi pushed her down with one hand while trying to grab his phone with the other, "No, don't mess around!"
Sui Yan scrambled towards Liu Hua, "Mom! Brother is bullying me again!"
Liu Hua never intervened when the kids roughhoused, she just hugged Sui Yan and pinched her cheek, "Don't make a fuss, let your brother and the others discuss this first, no rash actions."
Sui Yan obediently listened to her mom, "Okay then."
She was obedient with Liu Hua, but then turned and threatened Sui Zhi, "If you secretly discuss it without telling me, I'll post your ugly photos on your Weibo!"
Sui Zhi: "...I'm so scared."
Did he lack ugly photos of himself or something?
Sui Yan realized this wasn't much of a threat to Sui Zhi, so she thought for a bit and glared at Sui Yu, "I'll post yours too! All of them!"
Sui Yu pondered it for a moment, "This..."
Sui Yan jumped into Ye Anning's embrace, "Sister, sister~"
With the parents present, Ye Anning couldn't say much, she just narrowed her eyes at Sui Yu.
Sui Yu sighed, "Alright, alright, I won't hide anything from you."
Liu Hua didn't notice anything amiss, she even mocked Sui Yu, "You're such a big shot out there, but at home you're still so afraid of your little sister?"
Sui Yu touched his nose, "I'm just going easy on them."
Sui Yan secretly leaned towards Ye Anning's ear and whispered, "Sister, my brother is rebelling."
Ye Anning stroked her sister's hair, "He wouldn't dare."
