Chapter 325 - Many at the restaurant were excited like it was New Year day. (4)
When the Su family was labeled as being anti-government, all of their wealth and properties were confiscated.
Su Yueshen needed to take care of that quickly upon his return.
He was finally able to get his house back by the time everybody had returned to Capital City.
Their family’s old resident was a courtyard house with a garden and it was very spacious.
After it had been confiscated, the government had rented it out and some parts of it were completely beaten up.
He had been very busy in fixing the houses as of late.
The Su family was finally able to move back to their home that they had parted with four years ago.
Father and Mother Su couldn't help but teared up when they saw the familiar scene.
When they had calmed down, Mother Su looked at Su Yueshen and asked, “When are you going to bring Yilan and my grandson back?”
Su Yueshen said, “I’ll bring Xiao Jiu back shortly.”
Father and Mother Su noticed that something was off right away.
“What about Yilan? Are you not bringing her back?”
Su Yueshen adjusted his spectacles and said nonchalantly, “I’ll bring in back after a while.”
Father and Mother Su exchanged a look with each other.
Mother Su frowned and said, “Are you not going to re-marry Yilan, Yushen? That would be very wrong of you!”
Yilan was the one taking care of the child when all of them had been sentenced to the ranch. Had anything happened to them, Xiao Jiu would be the only descendant of the Su family.
Many wives would ask for a divorce when their husbands’ families were labelled as anti-government. Yilan had wanted to go with them to the ranch instead of getting a divorce back then.
They had to give it all their might to talk her out of it and the Gu family have had others looked after their family stealthily over the years.
As such, even though the Gu family were a bunch of pushovers and did not handle Xiao Jiu’s incident well at all, the Su family, however, still need to keep in mind what the Gu family had done for them and be grateful of that!
Father Su did not say anything. He knew his son very well. He knew that Su Yueshen was the type who thought very far ahead when he made any decision.
He must have his reasons.
Su Yueshen said, “Don’t you worry, Mom. I know what I am doing.”
He would remarry her for sure. But for certain he would need to fix the Gu family’s warp way of looking at things before that.
There would be many other issues that followed otherwise.

At the base.
The three noobs in relationship got together again.
Zhou Yan no longer looked disgruntled since his return from the city.
In fact, he resembled a dried up tree in spring time and looked sao from head to toe.
Zhou Yan ran his fingers through his hair and bragged complacently, “Xiao Yun had forgiven me already. She even saved me the chicken butt during dinner yesterday.”
Wen Rugui, “……”
Huang Qimin, “……”
Zhou Yan, “What’s that look on you two? Let me tell you, chicken butts are delicious. You should try it next time and you will know that I am telling the truth!”
Huang Qimin shook his head. “Oh, never mind. My fiancée called me yesterday. She said she would be mailing me some food in the mail today.”
As he talked, he had the exact same expression as Zhou Yan – he was there to brag.
Wen Rugui put down his chopsticks and the tip of his ears were red. “My girlfriend came to the base and brought me food. She even made me birthday noodles.”
Zhou Yan, “……”
Huang Qimin, “……”
They had lost.
Their girlfriends had never visited them at the base before!
It had been glamourous few days for Wen Rugui.
Everybody at the base now learned that he had a pretty, sweet, attentive girlfriend who was a very good cook.
Both Zhou Yan and Huang Qimin wondered how they could one up Wen Rugui.
They felt defeated being caught up by Wen Rugui who was the last to “bloom” among them.
Wen Rugui, “I’ve read in a book in the past that when two people are attracted to each other, they could smell the fragrance from the other person. Have you ever experienced that before?”
Huang Qimin lifted his brows, “There’s such a saying? No wonder I’ve always smelled this fragrance whenever I was around my girlfriend. I’ve asked her in the past if she was wearing perfume and she always said no. Here I thought she was lying to me.”
“She also said that I smell like fresh grass.” Huang Qimin could not have looked more complacent as he said that. Then, turning toward Zhou Yan, he asked, “Poophead Zhou, what does your girlfriend say you smell like?”
Zhou Yan did not look too happy.
His girlfriend said told him a few times that he smelled like sweat and feet.
Bad odor is also a form of attraction, right?
