2505 The Last Ace (5)
“Since, since this matter is of national importance, you should tell him.” Little Bean glanced at Pudding, who nodded and looked up at Su Yu. “Something happened between Mommy and Daddy.”
“No, Sis, it’s not just something. I think they’re fighting… or maybe they’ve iced each other,” Little Bean corrected.
“Iced each other? Why?” Su Yu frowned. He knew the couple well enough to know that this was impossible. He knew better than anyone how Qin Chu treated Huo Mian.
“We’re not sure, and we can’t ask too many questions,” Pudding continued.
“Right, but something’s definitely wrong,” Little Bean added.
“Are you sure you’re not thinking too much?” Su Yu didn’t believe the twins; after all, they were only three years old. “We’re sure,” the twins answered in unison.
“So… what am I supposed to do?” This was something Su Yu did not antic.i.p.ate, so for a second there, he wasn’t sure how he was supposed to help.
“Would we come here if we knew what to do? My sister and I wanted your advice or your help!” Little Bean said with a sigh.
“This is… between them, an outsider like me shouldn’t interfere. It might cause bigger problems between them.”
Su Yu was a man who knew his boundaries well. When he first began courting Huo Mian, he didn’t know she was married. After he found out, he buried his feelings and even purposely kept his distance. Even when Qin Chu was missing, he never used despicable methods to seduce Huo Mian. Truth be told, he was extremely shocked to hear that there was a b.u.mp in Qin Chu and Huo Mian’s relations.h.i.+p.
“Handsome Su, this is really serious,” Pudding said without blinking.
“Why so?”
“Because Mommy and Daddy haven’t been spending a lot of time together. They hardly ever talk to each other anymore and plus, Mommy always seems to have something on her mind. But you know Mommy, she would never say anything to us because we’re her daughters. But you’re different, you’re her friend so maybe… you can talk to her and ask her what’s wrong? Then, we can help them,” Pudding a.n.a.lyzed calmly.
“I just saw your mommy a few days ago, I don’t think I should meet up with her so often… How’s this? I’ll think of a way to talk to her.”
“Okay then, remember to tell us once you have intel.”
“Mhm, I will. Are you guys hungry? Let’s grab something to eat.”
Then, Su Yu drove the twins to get some dim sum before asking An to take them home.
After the twins left, Su Yu decided to take what they said seriously. He asked his people to do some digging… Although he wasn’t sure if they would be able to find anything.
In the end, Su Yu couldn’t help but send Huo Mian a WeChat message.
“Hi, Dr. Huo.”
He purposely picked this time – Huo Mian was at South Side, and he knew that she wasn’t with Qin Chu.
“What’s up, Young Master Su? How can I be of a.s.sistance?” Huo Mian replied with a joke.
“You can still joke around? I guess your mood isn’t as bad as what I’ve heard…”
“Who told you I was in a bad mood?” Huo Mian asked.
“Um…” Su Yu hesitated.
