177 Su Jun Smacks a Child
Su Su figured she should get in touch with Su Hao by gradually breaking through his psychological defense mechanisms. She wanted him to feel the kindness of the Su family so that he wouldn’t be wary of them.
Su Su thought she should first consult with Su Qiao since he was a boy like Su Hao. Perhaps then she could get closer to Su Hao. But something happened to Su Qiao before she could even talk to him.
It was a hot evening, and Su Su had just gotten back from kindergarten. She jogged into the living room and decided to ask Ah Shan for some ice cream. After that, she wanted to look for Su Qian and Su Qiao so they could play together.
But at that moment, Su Su saw Su Qiao kneeling on the floor without a shirt. He gritted his teeth and shouted as Su Jun stood behind him.
The atmosphere was tense, and Su Jun looked disappointed as he held a long bamboo stick. Meanwhile, Su Qiao had an angered expression as his face was flushed red.
Before Su Su could collect her thoughts, she heard Su Qiao scream, “You can beat me as much as you want! I will never admit it! I can just die so I can see mom and dad again. I can’t put up with you anymore.”
Su Jun was livid as the veins on his forehead throbbed when he heard Su Qiao’s words. He refuted with extreme anger, “How can you say that, Su Qiao?! When did you become so hateful? Will you still refuse to admit it even if I beat you to death?”
“Go ahead and do it!” Su Qiao stiffened as he shouted.
When Su Qiao finished yelling, Su Jun swung the bamboo stick fiercely. Then a crisp smacking sound echoed through the air.
Smack!
Su Qiao trembled violently and started sweating profusely from the pain. Su Qiao remained knelt and swallowed his desire to cry.
Su Su was shocked by what she saw. When Su Jun hit Su Qiao with the bamboo stick, Su Su was so scared that she took a big step back.
“You don’t have to see this, Su Su,” Wan Shuang quickly picked the little girl up and said lowly. Then she covered Su Su’s eyes and walked away.
Su Su could hear the sounds of the bamboo stick and Su Qiao’s cries coming from the living room. She became anxious, pried Wan Shuang’s hand from her eyes, and said, “I’m not afraid of what’s happening, Sister Wan. I need to see if Su Qiao is okay.”
Su Su knew her big brother very well. Su Jun would never hit someone unless he had no other choice. Indeed Su Qiao had caused severe trouble since Su Jun was utterly outraged.
Su Su shouldn’t interfere since she was the family’s youngest member. However, she wanted to know why Su Jun and Su Qiao were at odds.
Wan Shuang was relieved to see that the little girl wasn’t afraid. Instead, the little girl was curious. Wan Shuang carried Su Su to the window and whispered, “Don’t let them catch you, okay?”
Su Su nodded and frowned as she looked through the window. The glass window was thick, blocking most of the noise. Su Su couldn’t hear the conversation between her brothers and could only see them near the sofa.
Su Qiao knelt on the ground as his mouth opened and closed. His expression was unruly, as if he was refuting while Su Jun was gloomy. Su Su noticed several red marks on Su Qiao’s back, and he looked terrifying.
Su Su’s heart ached as she watched. She saw Su Jun raising the bamboo stick as if he would hit Su Qiao again. Su Su was shocked and out of breath.
‘Why is Su Qiao talking back to Su Jun? Big Brother wouldn’t be so angry if Su Qiao weren’t so stubborn and prideful. You’re only making Big Brother hit you some more!’
However, Su Qiao didn’t intend to give in. He even raised his voice and something disdainful. Su Su was worried that Su Jun would hit Su Qiao again, but her big brother’s expression changed as he threw the bamboo stick onto the ground.
