190 What Was Wrong With Su Hao
Su Su sighed when she sensed Su Jun’s conflicted feelings. According to her calculations, Bai Tao would reveal the truth of what happened under the dream chip’s effects the day after tomorrow. It would be the best time for Su Qiao and Su Jun to set their differences aside at that time.
Seeing that the two were silent, Su Hao said untimely, “Cousin Su Jun, I have some homework I need to do. Can I use the study upstairs?”
Besides Su Jun’s home office, there was a study containing personal and confidential files that Su Jun moved from his home office. Su Jun would habitually read in that study while the others rarely went in.
However, Su Hao suggested using that room for his homework. Su Jun and Su Qian were surprised at Su Hao’s words.
Su Qian looked at Su Hao and grumbled in her heart. Although their teacher did assign homework to them, Su Hao’s room was filled with extra-curricular books that Chen Shun supplied. There was no need for Su Hao to use the Su family’s study to do homework.
As Su Hao expected, Su Jun didn’t refuse. He said lightly, “That’s fine. You can use the study for your homework. If you need any books, you can take them back to your room.”
Su Hao nodded in surprise when he heard that. “T-Thank you, Cousin Su Jun!”
Su Jun revealed a bright smile when he noticed Su Hao’s gratefulness and love for reading. It was rare to see a child enjoy reading as much as Su Jun in the Su family home. When Su Jun walked past Su Hao, he encouragingly patted the kid’s shoulder.
But Su Hao didn’t look relaxed or happy after Su Jun patted his shoulder. Instead, he revealed a hint of fear and hesitation. Su Su noticed this when she turned and looked at Su Hao. She couldn’t help but tilt her head in confusion, but she didn’t take it to heart.
Meanwhile, as the sky darkened, Bai Tao only felt the pain on his back worsen, as if someone was whipping him. The pain was so intense that his skin was about to split open.
Bai Tao’s mother had contacted several doctors, but they all said that Bai Tao was healthy and that there were wounds on his back. A doctor even said that Bai Tao could be faking it or that he was mentally ill.
Even Bai Tao’s mother thought he was faking his condition so that he wouldn’t need to go to school. Bai Tao couldn’t figure out why he felt such pain and had trouble sleeping. As he tossed and turned on his bed, Bai Tao started to think that he was terminally ill and was about to die.
But no matter how uncomfortable Bai Tao felt, he managed to fall asleep from fatigue later in the night. When he started dreaming, he saw the demonic female reappear.
When Bai Tao returned to school, Su Qiao’s back wounds had almost healed, and Su Jun had lifted his confinement. Su Qiao insisted on returning to school despite what the people around him said.
Su Su was very supportive of Su Qiao’s decision. According to her calculations, the dream chip’s effectiveness should be maximized on that day.
Su Su looked at Su Qiao and thought he looked much better after recuperating for a few days. She smiled and encouraged him, “Fifth Brother, you haven’t done anything wrong. Don’t be afraid of what others say when you go back to school.”
Su Qiao’s lips twitched as he returned to being the Little Devil of the Su family. He said disdainfully, “Hmph, I was caught off guard last time. I will expose Bai Tao for what he did and beat him up!”
