Chapter 358
The Su family arrived quickly. Within twenty minutes, Mr. Su and Mrs. Su, out of breath, followed Aunt Guo into the courtyard.
Su Xiaoxiao had already heard the commotion outside and opened the door. Her gaze fell on her parents, then she peeked outside. “Did my brother and Yexun not come? My brother should handle this; none of us can manage it.”
Mr. and Mrs. Su scanned her from head to toe, their eyes moving back and forth across her body. Only after confirming she wasn’t injured did Mrs. Su grasp her hand and say, “We heard you brought back two people alone and rushed over, fearing something might happen to you.”
“Don’t worry, Mom and Dad; I was prepared long ago, so there won’t be any issues,” Su Xiaoxiao replied, forcing a silly grin.
However, Mr. Su looked suspiciously at the burly man on the ground, then back at his slender daughter. “You used to be unable to lift a finger; how could you carry two people back so easily now?”
Su Xiaoxiao’s heart skipped a beat. She was relieved to see her father’s curiosity didn’t lead him to doubt her changes. “I used to be easy to bully, but after Yexun helped me switch to cutting pig grass, he’s been doing it for me every day. With nothing else to do, I practiced on my own. Maybe I have a natural talent for this, and I’ve improved quite a bit. You can ask Aunt Guo; I was pretty tough when I worked in the production team.”
Aunt Guo quickly nodded, “Yes, when Xiaoxiao has free time at work, she practices. Her moves are quite impressive. Even when the other girls bicker, Xiaoxiao has never lost out.”
Mr. and Mrs. Su frowned at this. “You’re saying you need Jiang to help you even with cutting pig grass?”
They never imagined their daughter had become so lazy.
Aunt Guo hurriedly interjected, “What do you mean ’help’? That brat is Xiaoxiao’s boyfriend; it’s only right for him to do things for her. If he can’t even manage to cut pig grass, how can we expect him to protect the family after becoming her husband?”
Uh… her reasoning sounded pretty convincing. Mr. and Mrs. Su exchanged glances.
But it was clear that now was not the time to dwell on that. Mr. and Mrs. Su approached the two bound individuals.
“Is this the man who wanted to harm us?” Mr. Su asked, furious.
Su Xiaoxiao shook her head. “It definitely isn’t him. He’s just a lackey, a pawn. What we need to do now is interrogate him before the mastermind discovers it. Otherwise, that mastermind will do everything possible to silence him.”
Mr. Su thought for a moment and quickly said, “You and Aunt Guo stay here and keep watch. Your mother and I will go find your brother and Jiang.”
Without waiting for Su Xiaoxiao to stop them, they rushed out of the room.
Feeling that finding them might be a bit troublesome, Su Xiaoxiao dragged a small stool over and sat down in front of the two individuals.
Aunt Guo noticed her huddling there and hurried out to fetch a chair. “Xiaoxiao, sit back against the chair. It’ll be more comfortable.”
“Auntie, you should sit instead,” Su Xiaoxiao said, feeling a bit embarrassed to take the seat.
But Aunt Guo grabbed her hand and pulled her over, firmly placing her in the chair.
