“Wow! You’re simply amazing, Mr. Huang!” Su Su exclaimed sincerely.
Huang Sui shook his head and said, “That’s all in the past. I’m just an old man who loves to play the violin now. All right, little one. Do you want to see what I brought for you?”
‘When Su Su took the pink gift box from Huang Sui, she noticed that it was heavy. Su Su couldn’t help but feel puzzled.
Under the encouraging gazes of the people in the living room, Su Su opened the gift box and found an amber-colored square with various ancient Chinese patterns carved around it.
“Wow, is that a jewel of some sort?” Wan Shuang came over and asked in surprise. But when she took a closer look, she realized that it wasn’t precisely a jewel.
‘Commander Huang had always been humble and frugal, so why would he suddenly become so generous and give Su Su a piece of jewelry.’
Huang Sui smiled but didn’t reveal the answer. It was Su Su who recognized what the gift was as she said in surprise, “This is a piece of rosin! It’s so beautiful! I like it very much, Mr. Huang!”
The present that Huang Sui had given Su Su was a piece of rosin used to polish the violin bow. Even if it wasn’t a precious piece of jewelry, the item was still hard to come by, and it was gifted to Su Su by Huang Sui, no less.
When Su Zhen saw the piece of rosin, he said excitedly, “That’s a very precious item, Su Su. You need to thank Commander Huang quickly.”
Huang Sui reached out his hand to interrupt Su Su’s intentions of thanking him. “I’m glad that you like it, little one,” Huang Sui said contentedly. “You don’t need to thank me. All right, shall we go and practice the violin?”
The contractors were efficient and quickly converted the Su family’s home theater into a recording studio for Su Su in just one night. The entire fourth floor was now a place for Su Su to practice the violin.
‘When they arrived on the fourth floor, they saw that the room was bright and spacious. A ray of sunlight shone onto the wooden floor, making the studio look warm and inviting.
Since Huang Sui and Su Su needed to practice, it was better if they were left alone. Only Wan Shuang stayed with the two.
After some exchanges, Huang Sui quickly wrote two pieces of music for Su Su to practice. The more he looked at the composition, the more exquisite they became. After familiarizing himself with the melody, Huang Sui couldn’t wait to practice alongside Su Su.
Wan Shuang couldn’t understand the musical notes, so she sat quietly by the sidelines and enjoyed the music that Su Su and Huang Sui had composed together.
Su Su’s composition was beautiful. As soon as Wan Shuang heard it, she became intoxicated by the music, wholly absorbed in the wonder of the tune. Before she knew it, the sun had already begun to set.
After playing the violin the entire afternoon, Su Su became tired, and sweat covered her forehead. She was then taken away by a servant to get cleaned up. Huang Sui was used to practicing for hours, so he took a sip of water and proceeded to sit next to Wan Shuang, “Please, have a seat, Commander
Huang.”
Wan Shuang became nervous again when she was left alone with her commanding officer. She stood up to make way for Huang Sui, but he patted her on the shoulder and said, “I’m not your commander anymore, Little Wan. You can treat me as an ordinary old man and call me Grandpa Huang.”
“O-Okay.” Wan Shuang nodded nervously and sat back down.
“Theard from Su Zhen that you’re Su Su’s bodyguard. Is that right, Little Wan?” Huang Sui turned and asked while looking at Wan Shuang fondly.
‘Wan Shuang lowered her head and stammered, “I’m sorry, Grandpa Huang. I-I…” Wan Shuang was embarrassed because he ended up becoming a bodyguard because of her living conditions after being discharged from the Special Forces.
Wan Shuang felt that she had wasted all of her martial art skills and combat education. She couldn’t bring herself to raise her head before Huang Sui. She had let down the person who helped and cared for her in the end.
After hearing what Wan Shuang had to say, the older gentleman revealed a thoughtful expression and said, “You haven’t let anyone down. I think it’s great that you’re Su Su’s bodyguard.”
‘When Huang Sui saw Wan Shuang raising her head abruptly with a look of disbelief, he patted her shoulder and said, “You don’t have to feel embarrassed, Little Wan. You used to protect your comrades in the army, and now you’re protecting the Su family.”
“[-Truly? Do you think that this is a good job, Grandpa Huang?” Wan Shuang said as she became teary-eyed again.
‘When Wan Shuang retired from the army, she had initially planned to work as a policewoman or a fireman. But because of her mother’s illness, she became a bodyguard to a wealthy family instead.
It was simply a job that Wan Shuang took because of the high salary and not because it was honorable.
She wondered, ‘Does Commander Huang honestly think this job is good?”
