Sue and Elena had a secret relationship that no one else, especially Caroline, knew about. When he occasionally came back, he would teleport directly to Elena's side and not meet with Caroline or Bonnie. However, he did exchange quite a few text messages with Caroline.

It had been a while since I'd seen her, and Caroline had grown even more beautiful, with flowing blonde hair and a graceful figure.

"I knew it was you who came back." Caroline beamed with excitement. Before she could finish speaking, she opened her arms and threw herself into Su's arms, holding him tightly.

"Uh..." Su hugged Caroline and patted her back, smiling as she said, "Long time no see, how did you know I was back?"

Caroline looked up and smiled, saying, "I had a feeling! I come here every day to see if you've come back. I don't know why, but I just felt you were inside, so I knocked on the door, and you really came back."

Do you come here every day?

Did I have a premonition that I was inside?

Su was a little stunned. These words sounded like they were spoken with deep affection. Sure enough... being handsome makes you unforgettable!

With a smile, Su led her to sit on the sofa, glanced at the arm that the girl was still holding in her arms, and said with a light laugh, "I just got back today too."

"How long will you stay this time?" Caroline asked expectantly.

Ms. Su shook her head: "There are no plans for the time being, but I'll probably stay for a while."

"Great!" Caroline exclaimed excitedly. "We're on vacation now, so we'll have plenty of time to be together. You turned me down last time, so you can't turn me down again this time, can you?"

"Okay, let's call Elena and Bonnie later."

Caroline frowned: "The date I'm talking about is you and me!"

Su shrugged: "It's more fun with more people, and besides, I know all of you. I can't just leave them out and play with you alone, can I?"

"These are two different things!" Caroline hesitated, wanting to explain, but ultimately gave up. "Fine, if you want to come along, then come along."

"How have you been lately?" Madam Su knew what she was going to say, and seeing that she didn't dwell on the topic, she changed the subject.

He likes fish; bear's paw is also good, but you can't have both, unless... you're shameless!

Caroline just said that she comes here every day to see if she's back, which really touched Su.

He's now considered a tea connoisseur, and there's no denying that Caroline's personality makes her a bit teasy. Unless her tea-making skills have reached a level of artistry akin to God's acting, what she just said was absolutely from the heart, meaning it was genuine.

She must really come here every day, that's why she spoke so naturally when we met.

Su was a little scared. He realized that he had changed. He used to be such a cautious person when it came to relationships. How did he become like an old playboy?

Sure enough, men with money tend to go bad.

Lisa Trinity, Sarah Blake, Juliet Hill, Bea, Jennifer, Brie, Chris... Before we knew it, there were already so many fish.

Most importantly, his fishpond is getting bigger and bigger.

Thankfully, this was caught overseas!

If someone is too outstanding, they will be discovered no matter how low they try to keep a low profile.

Upon his return, Vicky's loyalty and Caroline's 'devotion' surprised him. He remembered that he hadn't done anything before leaving, nor had he deliberately flirted with her. How did things turn out like this?

As a prominent figure at school, Caroline possesses a wealth of information and gossip, and she is also exceptionally skilled at socializing. Once Sue brings up a topic, she has a constant stream of content to discuss, ensuring you never feel awkward or lacking in conversation. Instead, you'll feel like you're having a pleasant chat.

Of course, this is all on the premise that she is willing to talk to you.

Was Caroline willing to talk to Sue? Absolutely, so before she knew it, Caroline was talking about a lot of things that had happened recently.

Until Vicky and Jessica returned.

“This is Jessica Hamby, and this is Carolyn Forbes.”

After a brief introduction, Su smiled and said to Caroline, who was looking sizing up Jessica, "It's getting late, you should go back now. Call Bonnie to come over for dinner tomorrow."

"Okay, see you tomorrow then."

"See you tomorrow."

Although Caroline was somewhat reluctant, she still got up to leave.

As she reached the door, Caroline suddenly turned to Vicky and asked, "You...you still live here?"

Vicky smiled and said, "Yes."

"Oh."

Caroline responded, then smiled at Mrs. Su and turned to leave.

After Caroline left, Vicky couldn't help but laugh and say, "Caroline seems jealous."

"Be more confident, drop the 'seems' part." Su said with a smile, "Get some rest, I'll take you and Jessica shopping tomorrow."

"Boss, do you like her?" Vicky asked curiously.

"I like you!"

"Really?"

Vicky looked excited.

Mrs. Su rolled her eyes, turned around, and went upstairs.

Chapter 368 You like Elena? What about me?

Several days passed in a flash. Su spent his days either teasing magical creatures in the alternate dimension or taking Thunderbird and Zouwu for walks and play in deserted places. Occasionally, he would also watch movies and have picnics with Caroline and Bonnie.

The Wen brothers called him several times. One time was about the Wen family's mistress, who still couldn't escape the clutches of fate and was killed by the ghouls. John secretly investigated the ghouls but to no avail, so he finally asked the Wen brothers for help.

Then, killing the ghoul was considered revenge for the Wen family's third mistress.

The Wen brothers originally planned to take advantage of the resurrection cheat to find a way to revive the third son of the Wen family, since the underworld probably didn't know they could be resurrected.

Unfortunately, not a single Crossroads Demon was willing to make a deal with them.

Simply put, the Wen brothers have a terrible reputation in hell.

Sam cannot die. Dean was rescued from hell and resurrected, so no demons want to do business with them.

Therefore, the plan to revive the Wen family's mistress failed.

Even if a demon were willing to make a deal with them, it wouldn't matter. The soul of the third son of the Wen family is in heaven, and it wouldn't be so easy for a demon to resurrect him.

Besides the affair with the Wen family's mistress, there was another phone call about Cassidy. Just as Su had thought, Cassidy's soul was dragged back to heaven.

His vessel, the original owner, found his wife and daughter and wanted to reunite with his family, but was then targeted by a demon who wanted revenge.

In any case, the final outcome will definitely be that good will prevail over evil, and the original owner of the container is willing to completely sacrifice his body in the hope that Cassidio can protect his family.

The Wen brothers called hoping that the Su family could help, but the Su family refused.

His reason for refusing was simple: he wasn't interested.

After all that trouble, Cassidio not only survived but also completely possessed the container.

Why should I do it myself?

Besides, Cassidy owes me more and more debts. I can help him with some things when I need it, but I can't help him with everything.

What, do you really think that just because you owe money you're the boss?

Sue was determined to wait until Lilith was about to die before making a move. Wouldn't it be better to relax in Mysterious Falls Town before then?

"What are you thinking about?"

A faint, sweet fragrance wafted into his nostrils, and Su knew who was speaking without even looking up. Well, that's not entirely accurate, since he could also recognize someone by their voice; rather, he knew who it was as soon as they got close!

He recognized the scent of the perfume; it was a gift from him.

"Are you thinking about... Elena?" Caroline sat down next to Sue, glanced at Vicky, Jessica, and Bonnie who were setting up a picnic on the grass not far away, and couldn't help but ask with a hint of jealousy.

"Why do you ask?"

Caroline pouted: "I'm not stupid. I, Bonnie, Elena, the three of us have known you together. I've always tried to please you. Bonnie treats you as a friend, but Elena... you treated Elena differently before."

Mrs. Su smiled and said, "And then?"

“You haven’t mentioned Elena at all in the few days since you came back, nor have you asked when she will be back. You must have been in contact with her privately.”

Caroline gritted her teeth as she looked at Su, who did not deny it, and couldn't help but ask, "Do you like Elena?"

"Yes!"

yes……

He actually admitted it so readily?

why?

I've been trying to please you all along, and I'm no less capable than Elena, so why do you prefer her?

Am I really that much worse than Elena?

"And what about me?" Caroline couldn't help but ask.

Su looked at Caroline and smiled: "Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"

"Truth...lie!" Caroline wanted to hear the truth, but she was also afraid that the truth would be too hurtful, and that it would prevent her from maintaining her current relationship with the Su family.

Her current mindset is like a simp confessing to someone they like, feeling anxious and insecure. She hopes the person she likes will agree, but she's also worried about being rejected and losing even the chance to be friends.

"like!"

As soon as Su spoke, Caroline's face turned pale.

As expected, he definitely doesn't like me!

Caroline's eyes were red with frustration.

Seeing this, Su felt somewhat helpless. This was the reason why he was cautious about relationships. Perhaps he was too sentimental and longed for a perfect relationship. So, he really didn't want to get involved in a relationship before he was sure, so as not to hurt himself or others.

How wonderful it would be to be like Brie and the others: their feelings are voluntary, they have no regrets, they are grateful for the encounter, and they don't feel indebted.

Who hasn't had a moment of infatuation?

Caroline's 'devotion' really puts a lot of pressure on him. What if they get together and find they're not compatible? But if they don't get together, he doesn't know if they're compatible.

Elena's approach is different: a secret relationship, a trial romance? Even if it doesn't work out in the end, there's no sense of indebtedness. Isn't that great? No pressure at all!

Of course, this kind of thinking is a bit scummy, and it feels a bit like a playboy, but Su Shi doesn't use this kind of thinking to fish for fish. If it's really suitable, he will definitely be serious about being together. He's not deliberately deceiving or trying to avoid responsibility.

Honestly, with the Su family's wealth and status, he's qualified to be picky, isn't he?
