Almighty Sweet Queen is Really Rich!

Chapter 842: Chapter 842: Preferring to Attend Gatherings with Daddy and Mommy

Su Li and Xu Haohao found out that Xuan Ting had just come down the mountain and seemed not too clear about the prices.

Su Li clicked her tongue twice, patted Xuan Ting on the shoulder, and said, ”Fourth Senior Brother, keep it up. Try to get all the retired old professors to sing your praises.”

Xuan Ting looked puzzled, really?

Su Li returned to her room, feeling a bit worried about this weekend’s family gathering.

Mu Qingmei and Feng Huaijin have a good relationship, so it’s likely she knows about Feng Huaijin’s family situation.

[Mu Qingmei: I’m at the ranch and saw the horse Mo Si Huang gave you again. Are you talking about—Brother Qi’s grandparents?]

[Mu Qingmei: Brother Qi’s grandparents have a great relationship. His grandfather served in the military in his early days, and later became a teacher at a school. The old man is quite stubborn, but he’s not an unreasonable person.]

As soon as Su Li saw Mu Qingmei say that Feng Huaijin’s grandfather is stubborn, her face wrinkled up. This is tough...

Su Li rolled around on the bed, wondering what Tuanzi was feeling, whether he would be a little worried like her.

Tuanzi wasn’t worried at all, but he was indeed worried inside. He didn’t dare to tell Su Li, fearing his mom wouldn’t let him attend the family gathering.

Uncle has gone mad!

Every day after school, he makes him go to the study to do homework and then learn about managing family business.

Uncle is a persistent man; once he decides on something, he won’t easily give it up.

These days, he’s been learning until very late every day, exhausted to the point of collapsing into bed when he returns to his room, leaving no energy to contact his mom.

Tuanzi sat at the children’s desk specially set up for him beside the black desk and asked the man next to him, ”Uncle, can Tuanzi go see Uncle King... or Big Uncle this weekend?”

The man didn’t even lift his head: ”No.”

Tuanzi sighed like a little adult, feeling like a caged bird that simply couldn’t fly out.

The man gently opened the desk drawer, took out an aged painting, and softly unfurled it.

Tuanzi, holding a pencil, sneaked a glance and suddenly exclaimed, ”That’s my mom!”

Tuanzi tossed the pencil aside and couldn’t resist running over. The man raised the painting, keeping it out of Tuanzi’s reach.

Tuanzi wanted to jump; the painting was of his mom.

Because everything related to mom in this world had been burned to ashes, he didn’t even have a picture of Su Li. The photo he took with Su Lifen Huaijin at the Lantern Festival, fearing it would be discovered, was transferred to a USB drive.

”This is mine.” The man frowned and reminded him.

Tuanzi stretched out his hand but couldn’t reach it, looking at the man angrily and saying, ”That’s my mom, the painting should be Tuanzi’s.”

”Go back and sit at your desk!”

Tuanzi was a bit stubborn: ”I won’t go back, Tuanzi doesn’t want to learn to manage family affairs.”

The atmosphere between them was a bit tense until they suddenly heard a knock on the door. The butler opened the door and popped his head in, saying, ”Sir, Mr. King is here, hoping to take Young Master Tuanzi for a short stay.”

The man quickly rolled up the painting and, under Tuanzi’s excited gaze, said coldly without any hesitation, ”Send him back, and don’t allow him to come again!”

Tuanzi almost jumped up, rushing to the study window to look at the thin figure downstairs.

He wanted to go with Uncle King; only then could he get to mom!

Otherwise, under Uncle’s watchful eye, he wouldn’t be able to go anywhere. This week Uncle wasn’t going anywhere, just staying by him, teaching him to manage family affairs.

Compared to managing the family, Tuanzi still prefers to go to gatherings with dad and mom.
