Surrounded by the Billionaire's Deep Doting-Chapter 543 - 418: No One Is Worth Suppressing Your True Self For
He truly loves her, his heartbeat always spirals out of control because of her.
Putting away the camera, he walked over. Before he could squat down, Su Xiaomeng, who was already prepared, threw a snowball right at Yin Shixiu’s face!
Coincidentally, this scene was witnessed by Su Chengji and the siblings.
The ensuing burst of laughter was predictable!
Su Xiaomeng was laughing too, but she wasn’t foolish enough to stay in one spot. Clutching two more snowballs in her hand, she immediately ran away. Once she reached a decent range, she decisively threw them!
Every hit landed solidly on Yin Shixiu’s body.
After laughing, Su Chengji looked at his daughter’s actions...
Oh dear, could she be plotting to murder her husband?
Yin Shixiu was also stunned by the hits. Coming to his senses, he said, "So ruthless?"
Saying this, he chased after her; Su Xiaomeng never stopped accumulating snowballs!
"Bang bang bang..."
Some missed, but others hit their mark.
Su Xiaomeng laughed while throwing, venting her frustration—partly with herself and partly with Yin Shixiu.
Tired of throwing and running, she stumbled and fell.
Yin Shixiu calmly walked over, brushed the snow off himself, squatted down, and with a sarcastic smile said,
"Satisfied?"
"Hmph!"
Yin Shixiu couldn’t do anything about her attitude, but still found her adorable.
He reached out to pull her up but was pushed back down into the snow, sitting helplessly.
"You woman!"
"Go mom!"
"Go dad!"
The two siblings, ever afraid of missing out on excitement, joined in the fun again!
It’s likely that if Yin Shixiu and Su Xiaomeng ever had a serious fight in the future, these two siblings would have played quite a role.
People usually fight snowballs for fun, but looking at this couple, Su Chengji thought...
They’re not having a snowball fight; they’re actually fighting, aren’t they?
But then...
It’s just one side hitting and the other side taking it.
In the end, they didn’t even build a snowman; they were all worn out and by the time they went inside, their faces were all rosy.
Yin Shixiu was rarely this disheveled.
"Quickly change out of your wet clothes and shoes, don’t catch a cold. Get changed and come down for some hot soup before you rest."
Bai Sixian said.
By this time, Bai Fengmao was already asleep.
"I’ll help Shuangshuang and Huang Huang change."
"Oh, okay."
Su Xiaomeng responded and went back to the guest room with Yin Shixiu.
Bai Sixian took Shuangshuang and Huang Huang to the small room. The heating was adequate, so it wasn’t cold at all inside. The siblings, with their clothes off, didn’t feel cold and were running around the room.
Tired from the spinning, they came over to get dressed.
Shuangshuang lay on the bed, blinking her tired eyes, getting drowsy.
Once dressed, she was carried to bed, and as soon as she was tucked in, her eyes closed.
Prince Huang was more energetic than Shuangshuang, not very sleepy at the moment, he touched his stomach, "Grandma, hungry..."
"I’ll take you down to eat something in a bit."
"Okay!"
Prince Huang responded happily; it was apparent that, usually indifferent, this child was quite excited today.
"Huanghuang... How’s mom been lately?"
"Mom’s good."
Prince Huang thought Bai Sixian was asking if mom was good to him.
Bai Sixian quickly rephrased her question,
"Has mom been sick in London? Is she happy?"
She asked casually, not expecting to get much from such a young child.
To Bai Sixian’s surprise, Prince Huang pursed his lips and said,
"Uh-huh."
Bai Sixian raised her eyebrows, "Uh-huh? Mom’s sick?"
Prince Huang, who was just so cheerful, now looked a bit uncomfortable, "Sick, coughing... doesn’t hold me..."
This sounded like a grievance.
During Su Xiaomeng’s illness, she hardly held Shuangshuang and Huang Huang, fearing she might infect the siblings.
"Oh, mom’s worried that Huanghuang might get sick too."
"So long..."
Bai Sixian frowned slightly.
Xiao Meng wasn’t in great shape as a child, but later with her dance practice, getting sick for several days was rare.
"Grandma..."
"Hm?"
"Don’t want mom to be, be sick..."
Prince Huang stammered.
Bai Sixian comforted him, "You need to be good and not make mom worry, and her health will be great."
"Oh. Don’t want mom to cry..."
Prince Huang looked down at his hand, murmuring, his voice small, but Bai Sixian could hear it clearly,
"Mom... cried?"
Prince Huang looked at Bai Sixian, nodding,
"Cried, cried in the room for long..."
Bai Sixian’s heart tightened suddenly, her brow furrowing deeper, she patted Huanghuang’s back,
"Mom won’t cry later."
"Mm, I won’t let mom be, be sick."
Bai Sixian finished dressing him, Shuangshuang was already fast asleep.
She led Prince Huang downstairs where Yin Shixiu and Su Xiaomeng were already seated at the dining table with Su Chengji. The servant served each a bowl of pre-prepared soup.
Although Bai Sixian wouldn’t take the kids’ words too seriously, she wouldn’t dismiss them either.
That night, Bai Sixian didn’t sleep well. Su Chengji noticed and asked, to which Bai Sixian only gave a brief explanation.
Su Chengji sighed lightly...
No one really knew if there was truly an issue between Xiao Meng and Yin Shixiu.
If based solely on Xiao Meng’s anxious look on the way home and Prince Huang’s unclear words, they went to confront Yin Shixiu, it would be impulsive.
They are Xiao Meng’s parents, naturally wishing not to see her suffer any grievances.
If it were a misunderstanding, imagining wildly, confronting Yin Shixiu about something could worsen their marital relationship.
As elders, it’s not good to overly interfere in their children’s marriages.
Bai Sixian understood this well.
Spouses are not opponents; when something happens, elders shouldn’t rush to determine who’s right or wrong and take sides—this would only be harmful without benefit.
Su Chengji, though appearing rash, understood this too.
Both of them had experienced life; they knew they might be able to help for a moment but not for a lifetime.
Moreover, the word "help" should not be used when dealing with marital relations.
"Things aren’t as bad as we think; Meng Meng has grown up. From what I see, Xiao Yin and Meng Meng seem to be fine when they came back, as if there isn’t a big problem."
That’s what he said...
But what if they were just pretending in front of them?
The more Bai Sixian thought about it, the more she felt she was indulging in "conspiracy theories."
"Anyway, I trust Xiao Yin very much. I feel he’s genuinely upright! Though he’s much shrewder than Meng Meng, this shrewdness absolutely wouldn’t be used inappropriately!"
"..."
Bai Sixian looked at her husband, where did this confidence come from?
Was it just because Yin Shixiu marked out a plantation for him?
"I still maintain that he’s like me, cherishing his wife and loving her, and would never bully his wife!"
"..."
Bai Sixian turned away, not wanting to talk to him.
————
Xiao Meng and Yin Shixiu went down the mountain on the fourth day of the New Year.
Bai Sixian never inquired much from Yin Shixiu, but before leaving, she did pull Su Xiaomeng aside into the bedroom, where the mother and daughter had a private chat.
When she came out, Xiao Meng appeared unchanged but was holding back her emotions.
Saying goodbye to her grandfather, who smiled and waved at them, as the car drove far away, they could still see the elderly figure unwilling to return indoors from the rearview mirror...
Xiao Meng’s eyes reddened, missing her grandfather and parents, and also affected by her mother’s words.
"Life is lived just once, and in this lifetime, the length is unknown. No one is worth living a life of repression, endurance, or unhappiness for."
"Dad and Mom never expect you to be very successful; they just hope you’ll be happy in this life. You’re no less than anyone else, and there’s no need to compare with anyone. Our happiness is our happiness, and unhappiness is unhappiness; there’s no need to cater to anyone, even if that person is your husband, even if it’s your child."
"Meng Meng, you’ve grown up. You have your ways of handling things, but you must remember, as long as Mom and Dad are around, you will always have the strongest support behind you. Okay?"
"Okay!"
Tears fell.
The snow, however, stopped.
