Mom Is Seriously So Cool

Smack!

That exceptionally loud slap sent the maid stumbling back several steps before she barely managed to steady herself.

With a bright red handprint on her face, the maid stared at Su Minghui in disbelief. "You hit me?"

"If I didn't hit you, how would you know this household is surnamed Su, not Zhou?"

"Let me tell you, everything Zhou Guomin has was given to him by me. I'm the one paying your salary, not him!"

"Before you leave, remember to collect an extra payment from the butler. Consider it compensation for that slap. If you dare cause any more trouble, I wouldn't mind paying you even more medical expenses."

No matter how foolish the maid was, she understood the situation now. She did not dare make another sound and fled in a panic.

Su Leyun watched with great excitement.

[Mom is seriously so cool. This is exactly how disloyal people should be dealt with!]

Fu Siwen was also greatly gratified. It felt as though the decisive and formidable eldest daughter of the Su Household from years ago had returned.

By the time Zhou Guomin came back, everyone who needed to leave had already gone. Fu Siwen was in a hurry to pick up Chu Yanxiao from the Enlightenment Class, so after confirming that Su Minghui had no further problems, she left as well.

The house instantly became much quieter.

Zhou Guomin had rushed back after receiving a call from a relative. When he returned and did not see any of his relatives, he sensed that something was wrong. Frowning, he asked, "What happened? Where are the maids?"

Su Minghui calmly fed Su Leyun milk. "They were all fired."

Zhou Guomin became anxious. "What happened? Why did you fire people without discussing it with me?"

How was he supposed to explain this to his relatives? Besides, without his own people in the house, it would be inconvenient to make a move against the child later!

"I was just about to tell you. Why are you being so fierce?" Su Minghui was completely unlike how forceful she had been with the servants earlier. Instead, she looked somewhat pitiful. "Could it be that I can't even decide to fire a servant who disrespects me now?"

Whether before or after marriage, Zhou Guomin had always played the role of a refined gentleman. He had been attentive and obedient toward Su Minghui, smiling every day and never losing his temper.

It was also because he had recently gained great power, and Zheng Xiuru had given birth to another daughter, that the male chauvinism buried in his bones had resurfaced.

However, now was not the time.

Before Su Corporation truly belonged to Zhou Guomin, he still needed the identity of Su Minghui's husband. His disguise had to continue.

Zhou Guomin's expression stiffened. He forcibly turned his furious look into a fake smile, making his face appear somewhat twisted.

"Of course you can. I just meant that you should discuss it with me first..."

Su Minghui snorted. "I did this for your own good."

She explained patiently, "The shareholders' meeting is only a few months away, and the group's president will be appointed again. So many people are watching us! If one or two of your relatives use their connection to you as an excuse and tarnish your reputation outside, someone might use it against you. It would be terrible if it ruined something important!"

After the Su elders' accident, Zhou Guomin had been serving as acting president. But acting president was still only acting president; it always felt like he was occupying someone else's position. What he wanted was for that position to belong to him!

"That's right!" Zhou Guomin felt as though he had been enlightened and was instantly persuaded.

Indeed, Su Minghui loved him so much. She was surely thinking of him in every way! Whether his relatives spoke well or poorly of him was utterly insignificant compared to the position of president of Su Corporation!

"You really have thought this through!"

Su Minghui gave a fake smile. "You're my husband and the father of my children. If I don't think for your sake, whose sake should I think for?"

With just a few words from Su Minghui, Zhou Guomin's rage subsided. Now, his mind was filled only with joy at the thought of soon becoming president.

Once he was happy, other thoughts began to surface.

He had rushed back in a panic halfway through things with Zheng Xiuru, and his desire had yet to be satisfied. Although Su Minghui was not as much to his taste as Zheng Xiuru, she was still a stunning beauty. He could make do.

His hand wrapped around Su Minghui's waist, and he embraced her from behind.

"I was too anxious just now. Let your husband make it up to you properly."

As he spoke, he puckered his lips and leaned toward her.

Su Leyun hurriedly covered his eyes with his little arms.

[Trash Dad, don't come over here! Ugh, so disgusting!!!]

Su Minghui felt a wave of nausea as well. She had once loved her husband's affection the most, or else she would not have borne him three sons. But ever since learning his true nature, he had become nothing more than a pile of filth in her eyes.

Even getting close to him was unbearably foul. Naturally, she would never willingly roll around in that filth.

She raised a hand to block Zhou Guomin's approaching lips and pushed him away hard. Suppressing her disgust, she put on a shy expression. "Guomin, what are you doing? The child is watching!"

Zhou Guomin could not wait. "He's such a small child. What does he understand?"

He lowered his voice, thinking it sounded sexy when it was actually greasy. "Honey, I've held back for so long~"

[I understand! I understand everything! Back off first so we can talk properly!]

[And what do you mean, you've held back for so long? Trash Dad, I know you just came back from your mistress's place!]

Su Minghui held Su Leyun and smiled, gently taking two steps back to widen the distance between them.

"No. The doctor said we can't sleep together until three months after giving birth, and besides, I'm an older mother." Su Minghui was not actually that old. After all, her eldest son was already sixteen, but she had only been in her early twenties when she gave birth to him. She simply did not want Zhou Guomin touching her now.

But after saying that, she felt that her attitude had been too forceful. It was not yet time to alert him, so she added coquettishly, "Honey, just hold on a little longer, for my sake."

With things already put that way, Zhou Guomin would look like a beast if he kept pressing her.

He smacked his lips, feeling even more that Su Minghui was unromantic. Finding it boring, he walked out of the room. "I'll sleep in the guest room tonight. Get some rest."

Su Minghui could not have wished for more. She lightly scratched Su Leyun's nose. "Baby son, we'll sleep together tonight."

[Yes, yes! Dad smells like another woman. He stinks, I don't want him!]

After Su Yibei's kindergarten began and Chu Yanxiao's Enlightenment Class started as well, both children were busy during the first few days of school and had no time to pay attention to Su Leyun. Su Leyun enjoyed several rare peaceful days, yet he also found them somewhat lonely.

That afternoon, two luxury cars screeched to a stop outside the Su Household villa. The moment the drivers opened the doors, the two children dashed into the villa at top speed and thumped their way up to the second floor.

They were five-year-old Su Yibei and Chu Yanxiao, who was not yet three.

Chu Yanxiao was two years younger than Su Yibei, so he could not match him in height or leg length. Even though his little face had turned bright red from running, he still lagged several steps behind Su Yibei.

Like he was presenting a treasure, Su Yibei pulled a cake box from his schoolbag and brought it before Su Leyun. "Little brother, this is a cake I made myself in baking class. It's for you!"

When he opened it, the cake had already been smashed into a mess. Only the cream and cake layers barely showed that it had once been a cake.

"Ah, my cake..."

Chu Yanxiao finally made it upstairs then. He shoved Su Yibei aside, stretched out his hand before Su Leyun, and revealed a handful of brightly colored candies. "Little wife, have some candy!"
