Reborn as a Fake Heiress Marrying the Tycoon novel Chapter 941

Chapter 941: Not in a Rush to Cultivate

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Recently, Su Shen had been consumed with expanding his business, often working late into the night. By the time he returned home, Gu Zi was usually already asleep.

Out of respect, he wouldn’t disturb her rest, only occasionally awakening her if his longing became too strong. But once, he’d been too rough, leaving her uncomfortable afterward. Since then, he preferred to restrain himself rather than interrupt her sleep.

Seeing her waiting for him tonight, he felt both happiness and concern—concerned she wasn’t resting enough.

But Gu Zi, hearing his gentle scolding, thought he was the one who truly needed rest. In the countryside, he had always worked tirelessly, even taking night shifts and managing tasks alone, without ever appearing fatigued.

Now, even as he pushed to grow his business, he still insisted on doing everything himself, leaving precious little time for rest.

She knew that if not for her upcoming exams, he wouldn’t have stayed home recently at all. Though he never showed it, watching him work so hard tugged at her heart.

Gu Zi reached out, lightly tracing her fingers across his face. “I needed to talk to you about something, and I couldn’t wait till tomorrow. But before we get to that, let me tell you this: when you come home at night, after your shower, just leave your clothes by the washing machine. I’ll wash them with the rest. There’s no need for you to scrub them yourself. You need all the rest you can get.”

Su Shen often insisted on hand-washing his clothes after returning from the pig farm, fearing they were too dirty to put in the washing machine, which others used. He would rinse himself off and then, without a second thought, wash his work clothes by hand before hanging them up to dry.

The thought of his nightly routine made Gu Zi’s chest tighten slightly, her brows furrowing with a quiet frustration.

Su Shen’s brows drew together slightly, revealing his reluctance. He, too, was uncomfortable with the idea of Su Le being thrust into a formal training program so early.

“Your concerns are valid,” he replied. “We don’t know the true intentions of those involved yet, and Lele is still so young. There’s no rush.”

Understanding his perspective, Gu Zi nodded. It was the same thought that had crossed her mind earlier. Ever since Su Bing’s abilities caught the attention of someone in the shadows, they had taken extra precautions. If Su Le were also recognized as a child prodigy, it would only invite more trouble.

“Alright, I’ll call the professor tomorrow and decline their offer,” she agreed. “But I have to admit, I’m still puzzled. After that group came from the capital to look for the children, they vanished without a trace. If the person behind all this is indeed Su Bing’s biological father and he wants to reclaim the children, then why stay hidden?”

Could she have been mistaken? Perhaps this mysterious figure wasn’t their father after all, or if he was, then taking the children back wasn’t his goal. But if that were the case, what purpose did his actions serve?
