Chapter 36 Siblings Unite in Heart
Dinner was ready; the family sat down with Grandfather Su taking the seat of honor. He picked up his chopsticks to start, and only then did everyone else begin to eat.
The Su family was not overly traditional; they never mandated silence during meals or at bedtime. Grandfather Su, although appearing quite stern, actually had a rather hearty nature. It was just his commanding presence that made him seem somewhat distant.
Father Su sat upright, seeming very composed, but the occasional smile that crossed his face was quite amiable, especially in his interactions with Mother Su, which were often tender.
Mother Su’s smile was constant, radiating warmth and affection, yet her gestures were elegant and dignified. The occasional sharp glint in her eyes was not to be underestimated.
Big Brother Su was a very reserved man. His face showed Grandfather Su’s severity and Father Su’s steadiness. He also was a very handsome man. It had to be said, everyone in the Su family was at the top of the spectrum in terms of appearance.
However, Su Yanyi seemed the most indifferent of them all, her every move exuding a sense of detachment. Yet, perhaps because she was at home, this detachment felt almost imperceptible.
After dinner, Su Yanyi was the first to speak, "Big Brother, let’s talk."
Su Yanmo nodded without hesitation. He too had something to discuss with his sister, so the siblings headed to the study—one after the other. Even though both of them had moved out after getting married, their rooms and the study remained untouched.
"Yanyi, are you serious about Qin Jiran?" The siblings were four years apart. When Yanyi was born, Yanmo was already sensible. He had always been protective of her, sometimes even more so than their parents. As they grew older, he became even more protective of her, and the bond between the siblings had always been strong. Brother Yanmo understood his sister quite well.
