Chapter 1473: Memories of Su Ya

Chapter 1721: T05 New Year Special: Memories of Su Ya (1)

Today, January 28, 2006, was the first New Year’s Eve after Yang Ming entered high school.

“Big Ming, quickly get up. Your uncle’s family is treating us later!” Mother Yang knocked on Yang Ming’s room door and urged. “You are still oversleeping even though you are already such a big kid. Don’t you remember that today is an important day?”

“Oh, mom, let me sleep for a while. I slept late yesterday…” Yang Ming was unwilling to go when he heard that his uncle was treating them to a meal. The relationship between his uncle’s family and his family had not been very good all these years.

Due to some contradictions between his father and his uncle, there was no longer a lively relative’s atmosphere. Even when both families sat and ate together, they were only full of cynicism.

At first, his uncle was also a worker at the Song Jiang bus factory, but he chose to go to sea in his early years. Yang Ming’s father didn’t only reject his uncle’s offer to go to sea with him, but he also opposed the idea itself. So the contradiction between the two of them arose just like that.

His uncle did not believe that any job was secure for a lifetime, and he felt like he had to rely on himself to get rich. However, his father thought that a worker’s job was good enough. It would give him something to eat and wear for a lifetime. At least, it wasn’t risky.

Indeed, his uncle’s idea was ahead of time. From an economic perspective, they were receiving fewer benefits from the Song Jiang bus factory. His uncle’s move was wise, while his father’s thinking was too conservative.

His father initially hoped that Yang Ming could take over his position but he now desired that Yang Ming wouldn’t follow in his footsteps. From this, Yang Ming could see that his father slightly regretted it.

However, it was useless to regret. The conflict between the two had already occurred. It was difficult and impossible to mediate, especially with Yang Ming’s current ability.

Every time Uncle Yang Dashan showed off how much money he made, or compared his cousin’s, Yang Li, academic achievements to his own, it caused his family to lose face.

“Sleeping late? What did you do last night? Did you read a web novel?” Mother Yang got angry when Yang Ming said that he slept late. “You read a big novel written by Fishman II all day, and you don’t even sleep at midnight just to read it. Do you want to be punished?”

“Mom, I didn’t read…” Yang Ming denied.

In fact, he didn’t read last night. He had finished reading Fishman II’s novel titled “Pursuing Beauty after Reincarnating” a long time ago, so he did not carry the novel all day long because he had finished reading it in a few hours.

The reason why he had insomnia, which caused him to sleep late last night, was that he remembered the New Year’s Eve night three years ago.

At that time, Yang Ming had just entered first grade in middle school with excellent academic performance. The conflict between his family and his uncle’s family had not escalated to the current level yet. His father had an idle conversation at the table about him placing second overall in the final exam.

Yang Ming remembered clearly that his cousin Yang Li only got into the class ranking that year. Therefore, both families were relatively equal even if his uncle were to brag about his money. His uncle didn’t dare to ridicule his family too much for fear that his father would change the subject to Yang Ming’s performance.

That year, they ate at the Nightless Club Hotel. However, the Nightless Club was not Bao Sanli’s business at that time. It was a business invested in by a southern boss and was supervised by Yu Xiangde.

Yang Ming felt bored listening to his uncle bragging about his boring business, so he made the excuse of needing to go to the washroom so he could go to the hotel lobby.

“Hoo–!” Yang Ming stepped out of the smoke-filled room. Yang Ming still didn’t know how to smoke yet, so he was a bit sick of the smoke.

The nearby elevator door opened, and a wave of guests came up. Yang Ming quickly ran two steps and entered the elevator.

He pressed the button for the first floor, and the elevator slowly descended. It finally stopped on the first floor, and its door slowly opened again.

“Eh?” The moment Yang Ming stepped out of the elevator, he saw a familiar face in the group of people walking towards him— It was a girl as delicate as a porcelain doll, his deskmate, Su Ya.

Su Ya had also seen Yang Ming the moment the elevator door opened. She was also momentarily stunned. Su Ya quickly put her finger to her mouth and made a shush gesture when she saw that Yang Ming wanted to greet her.

Su Ya had come along with her father and a few of her father’s business partners. Naturally, she couldn’t let her father know about the ambiguous relationship between her and Yang Ming.

In fact, Su Ya was being too careful as she felt guilty. There was nothing wrong with ordinary classmates meeting each other coincidentally and saying hello. Her father Su Haikuo wouldn’t think much about it too.

Yang Ming didn’t understand why Su Ya gestured him not to speak, but he could slightly guess the reason after seeing the few adults next to Su Ya. So he nodded slightly and continued to walk out of the elevator.

Yang Ming couldn’t resist looking at Su Ya, and he was a little reluctant to leave. Both of them hadn’t seen each other since the holidays started.

“Wait for me for a while,” Su Ya said softly in Yang Ming’s ear as the two passed each other.

However, this mosquito-like voice immediately resonated with Yang Ming’s spirit! Su Ya asked him to wait for a while… Will she come and find me herself?

Although Yang Ming had too many questions at this moment, he didn’t dare to ask. After all, Su Ya’s family was right next to them. Yang Ming would just be seeking trouble if he said too much.

Yang Ming resisted his impulse to look back at Su Ya and continued to walk forward. He went all the way out the hotel door, sighed, and could not help but look back.

Su Ya’s family and her father’s friends had entered the elevator. Yang Ming saw Su Ya’s star-like bright eyes blink at him right before the elevator door closed.

“I never thought that Su Ya and her family would also come here to eat. It seems that her family is also not simple!” Yang Ming said to himself, sighing. The Nightless Club was considered to be a very high-end entertainment venue in Song Jiang. Wealthy bosses love it as it had catering, KTV, bowling alleys, and game halls. It was the perfect choice for family gatherings and business negotiations.

Although Yang Ming was only a middle school student at that time, he understood some of society’s rules due to his uncle’s influence.

Yang Ming buttoned up his coat buttons and sat on the parking lot’s steps in front of the Nightless Club. Very few people had cars at that time, so the parking lot seemed empty.

Yang Ming, who had come out to calm down, was anxious at that moment. He frequently turned back to check whether Su Ya had come out to find him yet.

However, Yang Ming did not see Su Ya even after looking back a few times. He was a little disappointed and even wondered if he had misheard or had hallucinated.

Maybe it was because Yang Ming wanted to see her so badly that he had hearing problems? That was probably the case.

“Ai…” Yang Ming sighed with some self-ridicule. What am I considered as? Simply puppy love? It doesn’t seem like it. Maybe I just have a favorable impression of Su Ya. I just wanted to see her and talk to her. I had no other intention.

“Yang Ming, why are you sighing? Today is the Chinese New Year!” A voice that had a nature-like element to it sounded behind Yang Ming, “It is said that you will sigh for the whole year if you sigh during Chinese New Year. Do you want to be unhappy for the whole year?”

This voice made Yang Ming’s heart tremble. He quickly turned his head and saw Su Ya standing behind him in a pale pink jacket. She looked like a fairy in the snow during this snowy season.

“You really came?” Yang Ming rubbed his eyes in disbelief. “I am not seeing an illusion, am I?”

“Didn’t I just tell you to wait for me? I wondered if you would wait for me.” Su Ya took two steps forward and leaned down. She patted away the snow on the steps and sat down next to Yang Ming.

“Hehe…” Yang Ming scratched his scalp and smirked.

“Why are you here? Did you come here for dinner as well?” Su Ya indicated for Yang Ming to sit down too. “I was a bit surprised when I saw you just now.”

“En, My uncle is treating us here,” Yang Ming nodded. “But I don’t like this kind of occasion, so I came out for some fresh air.”

“My dad also invited a few business partners to come here for dinner. I also had nothing to do. Then, I saw you when I was worrying about how to pass the time.” Su Ya smiled happily. “So I simply made an excuse and came out.”

“Won’t your dad be worried about where you are?” Yang Ming asked.

“No, he won’t. How could he have time to look for me when he is talking about business together with his business partners?” Su Ya shook her head.

“Let’s just take a walk then?” Yang Ming hesitantly suggested.

“Okay.” Su Ya nodded and stood up. “I’m a little bit cold. So cold!”

Su Ya raised her hand near her mouth and sighed twice. She said, “Song Jiang’s winter is really cold.”

“Yeah, but it’s spring tomorrow.” Yang Ming nodded and glanced at Su Ya’s little white hand. He gritted his teeth and grabbed her hand. He stuttered, “Then… I will help you to warm your hands? ”

Su Ya’s face blushed, but it wasn’t too obvious as her face was already red because of the cold.

Su Ya stubbornly wanted to get rid of Yang Ming’s hand, but the warmth in Yang Ming’s hands made her reluctant. Or maybe it was the instant electric shock feeling that made Su Ya hesitant.

“What about my other hand?” Su Ya found a stupid reason.

“This…” Yang Ming was embarrassed and said cheekily, “I’ll warm this hand first and then change to the other one later.”

“You obviously want to take advantage of me.” Su Ya pursed her lips, but still let Yang Ming hold her hands. This ambivalence made Su Ya wonder what happened to her.

“No, I don’t.” How could Yang Ming admit it? He quickly denied, “I would cover both your hands with my hands if I wanted to take advantage of you!”

“En?” Su Ya stunned. “Both hands? You would warm them together that way!”

Su Ya still had not figured it out. Why is warming with two hands taking advantage? It is clear that holding my hand with one hand is simply taking the opportunity to hold hands.

“I think we better not…” Yang Ming hesitated.

“Hurry up! My other hand is cold too!” Su Ya urged.

“Then … okay!” Yang Ming quickly grabbed Su Ya’s right hand from behind with his left hand and then used his right hand to grab Su Ya’s left hand…

“Ah-” Su Ya exclaimed, her face blushed even more and she started breathing faster. She finally understood Yang Ming’s concept of covering two hands together!

Yang Ming had used his hands to hug Su Ya entirely from behind!

For a moment, Su Ya forgot to struggle, and Yang Ming was overwhelmed by this strange feeling. The two hugged each other like a couple on the snow in the parking lot.

“Dididi——” A car horn sounded not long after, and a black Mercedes-Benz car with the “Pine BXX888” license plate entered the Nightless Club Entertainment City parking lot.

It instantly alerted Yang Ming and Su Ya who were immersed in that fantasy-like feeling. Su Ya was startled and quickly got out of Yang Ming’s arms. Yang Ming also bent down a little nervously.

“Hoo–” Su Ya saw the license plate number and was relieved. She blushed and whispered to Yang Ming, “I don’t recognize the license plate number, so it should not be my father’s friend.”

“It scared me to death…” Yang Ming cursed the owner of the Mercedes-Benz car to not die a natural death as he ruined others’ good deeds.

“You were scared to death? I was scared to death!” Su Ya glared at Yang Ming. “Never do that again!”

“I… I really wanted to cover your hands only. Who knew that later…” Yang Ming explained with embarrassment.

“Don’t say anymore… I know.” Su Ya waved her hand and stopped Yang Ming from continuing. In fact, Yang Ming was not to blame. She could have broken free long ago if she wanted to. She did not have to wait until now.

“En…” Yang Ming nodded, embarrassed.

“We are too young now… Can we think about these things when we grow up?” Su Ya was afraid that Yang Ming would misunderstand, so she thought about how to word it for a long time before explaining it to Yang Ming.

“En?” Yang Ming was a little stunned and surprised at Su Ya’s delicate embarrassment. “Grow up? How old should we be?”

“Stop it. I just simply said it. How could you ask that?” Su Ya was a little overwhelmed by Yang Ming. She was slightly annoyed that Yang Ming was unromantic. He just took control of these unspeakable things. How could he ask about it?

“I… I just simply asked…” Yang Ming explained. “Then… Let’s wait until we are in high school?”

Su Ya was so angry that she wanted to beat Yang Ming up, but she just nodded slightly and lightly said, “en.”

“So we have agreed that we will go to the same high school three years later,” Yang Ming said in excitement.

“En…” Su Ya blushed and nodded again.

“Hey, can you two change the place of your rendezvous? I want to park my car here!” The driver of the Mercedes-Benz car opened the window and stuck his head out to yell at Yang Ming and Su Ya. Both of them were surprised again.

Yang Ming glared at the driver of the Mercedes-Benz car and said in his heart, Why must you park here when there are so many parking spaces?

“I have no idea which little bastard comes here to meet a partner when it’s so cold. You must have brain damage!” The man continued to scold.

“Bastard, who are you scolding?” Yang Ming was triggered when he heard the man scold them.

Su Ya pulled Yang Ming’s sleeve and said, “Forget it…”

Su Ya had recognized the model of the man’s car. She knew that her father’s car was not so high-end, so she knew that they couldn’t provoke such a person.

“I am scolding you!” The driving man was furious when he saw that Yang Ming dared to question him. “Why, do you have any comments?”

“No,” Yang Ming simply said sharply. He pulled Su Ya and walked aside after he finished speaking, vacating the parking space for the Mercedes-Benz driver.

The driving man was a little startled by Yang Ming’s behavior. He watched Yang Ming leave and cursed as he closed the window, “Brain-damaged. Why did you ask me when you have no opinion?”

“Dad, I got it! That kid is cursing you back!” A young boy who sat in the front seat of the Mercedes-Benz suddenly realized. He was about the same age as Yang Ming.

“Scold me?” The driving man was stunned. “Zhitao, you said that he scolded me? What do you mean?”

“Dad, he just said, bastard, who are you scolding? Think carefully about what it means,” explained the young boy named Zhitao.

“Bastard, who are you scolding…Bastard, who are you scolding! What a blunder! This kid dared to call me a bastard!” The driver was furious after he realized, so he opened the door to find Yang Ming.

“Dad, forget it. They have walked far away!” Zhitao looked with a little intrigue at the backs of Yang Ming and Su Ya who were walking away. That little girl looks good. She is wasted on that kid.

“If it weren’t for my meeting with the Vietnamese boss today, I would beat that kid!” The driver said with a cold Hmph. “However, I can’t delay the meeting anymore. They agreed to invest in a hotel for me!”

“Dad, are you talking about the Tavern Heaven on Earth Hotel project?” Zhitao’s eyes brightened when he heard about it.

“En, it is that project. I am going to build the most luxurious hotel in Song Jiang that will exceed even the Nightless Club!” said the driver.

Hehe, Zhitao felt proud after hearing that. He would have a venue to pick up girls in the future. It will be my hotel. It is so cool! I can also set up traps to frame others, keke…

Yang Ming brought Su Ya back to the Mercedes-Benz car after Zhitao and his father entered the hotel.

“Yang Ming, you’re so bad! You used some wordplay to swear at him!” Su Ya had also understood the meaning of Yang Ming’s sentence, and couldn’t stop laughing.

“He scolded us first. I just replied to him. He was stupid and unresponsive, so who can he blame?” Yang Ming shrugged.

“Why did you bring me back here?” Su Ya felt a little strange. Why did Yang Ming return after both the father and son left?

“You’ll know right away…” Yang Ming smiled. He squatted down and started to deflate Mercedes-Benz’s tires…

“Ah!” Su Ya immediately understood Yang Ming’s intentions. “You really are unforgiving!”

“That’s right! I hope they don’t mess with me in the future. Otherwise, Hmph Hmph!” Yang Ming deflated the tires and clapped his hands proudly.
