Supreme Heir Son-in-law-Chapter 1077 - 1076: Strange Phone Call

"What, you’re asking, really, don’t believe it? You guys should think, who is the one following the boss all day? It’s definitely me, this thing. Only I know it."

The office employees all looked at Xu Ke with curiosity.

Unexpectedly, their boss turned out to be a man with feelings.

"Alright, alright, quickly disperse. If the boss finds out we’re not working properly, what will happen if he docks our pay then?"

After listening to what Xiao Ke said, everyone returned to their seats. As the saying goes, the office gossip is truly not to be talked about here.

Everyone knew Xu Ke’s temperament, having followed him for many years, they had pretty much figured it out.

Xiao Ke turned and glanced at Xu Ke.

The saying is right, whoever ties the bell must untie it.

Xiao Ke smiled a bit and turned to leave.

Su Mansion.

Mrs. Su and Lin Yi were chatting about things in Suzhou. It was obvious that Lin Yi didn’t have much interest in things related to Suzhou.

But, since she was Suzhou’s fiancée, she had the necessary obligation to learn a bit. After all, she would be living with this man in the future.

"Yiyi, don’t feel burdened. Actually, Xiao Zhou, although he can be a little stubborn, isn’t bad at heart."

Whether his heart is good or bad has nothing to do with her, absolutely none.

But seeing Mrs. Su say this, Lin Yi felt it wasn’t right to say anything else. After all, this was someone else’s son.

The dignified president of Su Group, Suzhou, what qualification did she have to judge whether he’s good or bad?

"Got it, Auntie, I’ve noted everything you’ve said today. Don’t worry, I definitely won’t make such a basic mistake in the future."

Seeing Lin Yi being so obedient and understanding, Mrs. Su was naturally very happy. After all, her future daughter-in-law was such an obedient and sensible girl.

During the chat with Mrs. Su, Lin Yi could feel Mrs. Su’s warmth.

Turns out, everyone was a bit different from what she imagined.

Before, Lin Yi always felt the people treating her best in the world were her father and Nanny Wu.

But now, she no longer feels this way.

Mrs. Su is also a nice person.

If not for this commercial marriage, she might have even wanted Mrs. Su to be her godmother.

The mother’s love Lin Yi missed for so many years really can’t be made up for in a short while.

Looking at her phone, it was already quite late.

She ought to go home now, if she didn’t, her father would certainly complain.

Growing up, this was Lin Yi’s first time spending the night at someone else’s house, even though she didn’t sleep so soundly.

But the first time is still the first time.

"Auntie, it’s getting late, I should be going home. I apologize for the trouble I’ve caused you today."

Lin Yi was polite and lowered her posture in every gesture, something Mrs. Su was very satisfied with.

It seems Lin Zhihua hadn’t raised his daughter for nothing all these years.

In Lin Yi, you couldn’t find a single hint of a spoiled lady’s demeanor.

Perhaps this could be considered a guarantee.

But having met Lin Yi this time, Mrs. Su felt relieved. Lin Yi was truly quite suited to be her family’s daughter-in-law.

"Yiyi, have lunch before you go. I’ll have Nanny Chen make something delicious for you. At noon, Xiao Zhou and his dad won’t be back, so it’s just me at home. Keep me company for lunch before you leave, alright?"

Lin Yi looked at Mrs. Su’s aged face. She thought, shouldn’t Mrs. Su, as a member of the Su Family, maintain herself to be youthful and beautiful?

Why is Mrs. Su in front of her so different?

Suddenly, Lin Yi thought of her father. Last night, she didn’t go home, presumably her father ate alone?

Did he eat well?

At home, besides Nanny Wu, there was not even anyone to speak to.

What Lin Yi didn’t know was that last night, Chairman Lin didn’t actually eat.

Last night.

Nanny Wu placed the dishes on the table, but Chairman Lin looked at the table full of dishes with no appetite to eat.

Every day during meals, he had Lin Yi to keep him company. Now, there was not even a single person by his side, and Chairman Lin felt sad.

If Lin Yi got married, 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

wouldn’t he just be a lonely old man?

"Alright, Auntie, I’ll keep you company for lunch, and then I’ll go home."

"Yiyi, you are so obedient. Your father raised you well. Alright, once we’re done eating, I’ll have the driver take you home. That way, you’ll be safe."

Mrs. Su had already arranged it like this.

There was no room left for her to refuse.

"Alright, I know."

Soon, Nanny Chen had already prepared the dishes, waiting for Mrs. Su and Lin Yi to eat together.

Lin Yi looked at the table full of good dishes and food, and suddenly felt that her and her father’s life lacked any taste of the human world.

Every meal was spent just getting by.

No one ever told her what she should eat for a particular meal. The father and daughter always shared a kind of mutual understanding.

As long as the meals could be eaten, it didn’t matter; there were no expectations of love.

Mrs. Su noticed that Lin Yi’s expression was a bit wrong, feeling curious.

Could it be that she didn’t like the dishes on the table?

"Yiyi, why aren’t you starting? Do you not like these dishes? If you don’t, you don’t have to force yourself. I’ll have Nanny Chen make what you like best."

Hearing Mrs. Su’s words, Lin Yi felt even more embarrassed. It wasn’t that she didn’t like them, she was extremely surprised, okay.

"No need, Auntie Su. I like all these dishes. You don’t need to have Nanny Chen make anything else."

Upon hearing Lin Yi’s words, Mrs. Su felt naturally very happy.

A meal left the young lady in front of her full of emotions.

"Alright, eat more. You’re still young, at the age to grow, you shouldn’t miss out on nutrition."

Mrs. Su said to herself.

Indeed, she truly cared about this daughter-in-law of hers.

"Alright, I know, Auntie. You should eat more, too."

While speaking, Lin Yi began to shed tears uncontrollably. For so many years, she has dearly longed for a mother.

Though her father had been quite nice to her, deep down, the longing for maternal affection was something Lin Yi could never attain throughout her life.

"Yiyi, what’s wrong? Why are you crying? Are you feeling sad, or did Auntie do something wrong?"

At this moment, Lin Yi could no longer control her emotions and burst into tears, as if she was crying out all the grievances over the years.

"Auntie, I miss my mom. I’ve never had a mom since I was little."

...

Mrs. Su suddenly understood something. Turns out, the young girl before her had always been pretending to be strong.

Just then, the phone in the living room rang.
