Gao Wen and Yang Tao realized that Mi Duo was deliberately causing trouble, and they both breathed a sigh of relief.
Chapter 249 Stunned
Su Chang ignored Mi Duo and hugged Yang Tao tightly, as if afraid she would break free. Yang Tao struggled symbolically for a moment, her eyes revealing a hint of helplessness and submission, but in the end, she let Su Chang hold her.
Su Chang's face was full of ingratiating smiles as he said softly, "Taozi, something really happened recently. Two friends of mine were hospitalized because of me, so they haven't been able to go back to the villa for the past two weeks. I will definitely go back to see you once they are discharged."
Yang Tao rolled her eyes in annoyance and said, "Who is it this time? And what's with Zhu Zhe? Don't tell me it's because she's capable; I don't believe it." Her tone was clearly dissatisfied and suspicious.
Su Chang smiled awkwardly and quickly continued to reassure her, "They're just two friends. Zhu Zhe is my neighbor. She's really capable at work, you can probably tell. I really think she should be the director, it's just that her education level is a little low. If we let her take some further training, she'll definitely become your right-hand woman, and that way you'll have a lot more free time."
Yang Tao looked Su Chang up and down, a cold smile playing on her lips, and said, "I really didn't expect you to care so much about this Zhu Zhe, even planning her future. And that friend you mentioned, is she probably a new girlfriend?" A surge of jealousy and dissatisfaction welled up inside her.
Su Chang was speechless. He knew that the more he explained, the angrier Yang Tao would become. He quickly changed the subject, smiling as he said, "Taozi, you must be hungry too, right? Why don't we eat first?"
Yang Tao knew that Su Chang was deliberately changing the subject, but with Gao Wen and Mi Duo present, she didn't want the situation to become too awkward, so she said irritably, "You guys hurry up and order, I have something to do later, so I won't eat with you."
Su Chang quickly reminded them, "Oh, okay then, remember to eat on time." His eyes revealed a hint of concern and worry, then he looked at Gao Wen and Mi Duo and said, "You two, see what you want to eat, and hurry up and order."
Gao Wen quickly stopped Mi Duo, who was about to argue, and nodded to Su Chang, saying, "Okay, President Su, let's order right away."
Although Mi Duo was very dissatisfied, she could only suppress it. She ordered a few expensive dishes in a fit of pique, her eyes revealing a hint of dissatisfaction and provocation.
However, Su Chang didn't care about any of that. That amount of money was nothing to him, especially since it was his own hotel.
Gao Wen ordered two of her favorite dishes and then handed the menu to Su Chang, who also ordered two more dishes.
After giving Su Chang a few instructions, Yang Tao turned and left. Mi Duo's gaze followed Yang Tao until she disappeared from sight.
After Yang Tao left, Mi Duo finally couldn't hold back any longer. Her face darkened, and she glared at Su Chang, demanding, "You scumbag, do you have many girlfriends?"
Su Chang nodded indifferently, a slight contemptuous smile on his lips, and said, "Yes."
A surge of nameless anger welled up in Mido's heart. She pointed at Su Chang, her voice rising an octave involuntarily, and said, "How could you do this? How can you do this to them?"
Su Chang did not answer Mi Duo's question. Instead, he looked her up and down, his eyes revealing a hint of disdain, and then shook his head.
This puzzled Mi Duo, who didn't know what Su Chang meant, so she asked directly, "What do you mean by this?"
Su Chang looked at Mi Duo with a teasing expression, a slight smile playing on her lips, and asked, "You want to know?"
"Nonsense, I don't want to know, why would I ask you?" Mido replied irritably, her eyes filled with anger and dissatisfaction.
Su Chang pursed his lips, seemingly unconcerned about Mi Duo's reaction. He said, "I'm just worried that someone with your IQ might have a hard time accepting new ideas."
Mido's eyes instantly filled with anger. She stared intently at Su Chang and roared, "Who are you calling stupid? And how do you know I can't accept new ideas if you don't tell me?"
Su Chang gave a sly smile, then immediately withdrew it. His expression turned serious, and he looked at Mi Duo with a hint of provocation, asking, "Can you accept this?"
Mido answered without hesitation, "Of course." Although she felt a little uneasy, she still put on a firm expression.
Su Chang then slowly said, "Alright then, so I haven't been hiding anything from them, they know each other, they are all my girlfriends, I'm not married, and they are all happy with me, so what's the problem?"
Mido's face turned extremely pale, her lips trembling slightly, her heart filled with shock and anger. She couldn't accept Su Chang's views; she felt it was a desecration of love, and that Su Chang had destroyed her entire worldview.
So Mi Duo pointed at Su Chang and said, "That's just sophistry. Don't you know that dating without the intention of marriage is just playing around? What will happen to your other girlfriends after you get married? Will they become your mistresses?"
"That's why I said it's hard for someone with your IQ to accept new ideas." Su Chang's lips curled up slightly, and he curled his lip in disdain, his eyes revealing a hint of contempt.
Upon hearing this, Mido's eyes widened in disbelief. She put her hands on her hips and raised her voice eight octaves: "Then tell me, how are you going to solve this problem?"
Su Chang explained casually, "It's very simple. The first option is that I don't get married. They will always be my girlfriends, so there won't be any question of who is the wife and who is the mistress." His tone was relaxed, as if it were the most ordinary thing in the world.
Mido's expression instantly turned serious. She frowned and retorted, "How can that be? Marriage is a major event in a woman's life. How can she not get married?" Her eyes were filled with determination and dissatisfaction.
Su Chang wasn't angry that Mi Duo interrupted him. Instead, he calmly said, "Then there's the second way. Go abroad and get married in a church. Or, with my wealth, I can simply buy a small island abroad and become its owner, change my nationality, and marry as many people as I want." His words carried a sense of confidence and casualness, as if everything was under his control.
"Buy an island? You have that much money?" Mido looked at Su Chang in disbelief, her mouth agape and her eyes sparkling with surprise.

Gao Wen also stared intently at Su Chang with a look that seemed to say, "Don't think you can fool me just because I'm not well-educated."
Su Chang didn't say anything, but instead operated the phone for a moment before handing it to Mi Duo and saying, "See for yourself." His expression was very calm, as if this was just a trivial matter.
Mi Duo took Su Chang's phone with a puzzled look, wondering what he wanted her to see. Her fingers trembled slightly as she gently tapped the screen, and Gao Wen quickly leaned over as well. When they saw that Su Chang's bank account balance was a long string of numbers, her eyes widened instantly, and her mouth gaped open.
"Ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands... hundreds of billions, hundreds of billions, trillions!" The two exclaimed in surprise after counting, swallowing hard. Their faces were filled with shock and disbelief, as if they had witnessed an impossible miracle.
Su Chang snatched the phone back, a teasing smile on his face. He looked at Mi Duo and Gao Wen and said, "Any more questions now?"
..... 0 ...
The two were stunned. They just shook their heads instinctively, then lowered their heads and remained silent, seemingly lost in thought.
After seeing Su Chang's bank balance, a hint of surprise flashed in Mi Duo's eyes. She unconsciously restrained her behavior, and her originally somewhat flamboyant demeanor became much more low-key.
For some unknown reason, Gao Wen let out a long sigh and adopted a very humble posture, while Su Chang remained calm, as if she were completely oblivious to everything.
After the three of them finished their meal in silence, Su Chang led the two to the hospital. Just as they arrived at Fang Zhiheng's ward, Su Chang heard a burst of loud laughter coming from inside. He frowned, didn't knock, and led the two straight in.
Upon entering the ward, Su Chang saw Fang Zhiheng, Qin Shi, Guan Xiaodi, and Cui Tianqi sitting around the bed playing cards. Long strips of paper were stuck to their faces, making them look quite comical, like generals rolling up curtains.
Fang Zhiheng and Qin Shi were in slightly better condition; at least their faces were still visible. However, Guan Xiaodi and Cui Tianqi's eyes were almost completely covered by the note.
Hearing Su Chang enter, all four turned to look. A flicker of panic crossed Fang Zhiheng's eyes. She immediately shrank back onto the bed, accidentally bumping her leg on the edge. She gasped in pain, but forced herself not to cry out. With Qin Shi's help, she managed to bury herself completely under the covers.
Guan Xiaodi and Cui Tianqi seemed a little nervous. They immediately and hastily removed the paper strips from their faces, stood up, lowered their heads, and dared not look Su Chang in the eye.
Looking at the three women's reactions, Qin Shi looked at Su Chang with a helpless expression and asked, "Wait, what are you doing at the hospital at this time?"
Su Chang glared at her, annoyed, and said, "You have the nerve to say that? The doctor said you can be discharged, so why are you still staying in the hospital? You even took the three of them to play cards. Don't you know Lucy needs to rest?"
A hint of defiance appeared on Qin Shi's face as she retorted, "I'm staying with Lucy at the hospital because I don't want her to be bored. Besides, Lucy's leg is back in place now, so of course she needs to move around a lot to recover faster."
Chapter 250 Transformation
Su Chang pursed his lips, clearly not believing her. He muttered to himself, "You're full of twisted logic."
Su Chang then looked at Guan Xiaodi and Cui Tianqi and said with a serious expression, "Is this how you two protect people? I'm going to ask Xiong Kuohai if this is how he taught you. Are you planning to wipe them all out if something goes wrong?"
Guan Xiaodi and Cui Tianqi's faces turned pale instantly, their hearts filled with guilt and unease.
Guan Xiaodi lowered her head and said softly, "I'm sorry, Su Chang, we know we were wrong. We just wanted to make Lucy happy, and we won't do it again..."
Cui Tianqi chimed in, "Yes, we really didn't mean it. We'll be more careful in the future and won't let this happen again."
Fang Zhiheng then crawled out from under the covers and looked at Su Chang pitifully, saying, "Su Chang, don't blame them. I made them do it. Blame me if you must."
Seeing their anxious expressions, Su Chang's anger gradually subsided. He sighed and looked at Fang Zhiheng with a serious expression, saying, "Lucy, I haven't even said anything to you yet. Didn't the doctor repeatedly emphasize that you absolutely cannot move your '803' leg for the next two weeks, otherwise it will affect the recovery? Are you planning to become a cripple?"
Fang Zhiheng immediately lowered her head and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Su Chang. I'll remember this and I'll be more careful in the future."
Seeing Fang Zhiheng's pitiful appearance, Su Chang's anger instantly dissipated, and his tone softened: "Alright, lie down now. You bumped your leg just now, is there anything that hurts?"
Hearing Su Chang's concern, Fang Zhiheng looked up with a sweet smile on her face. Her eyes were filled with gratitude and happiness as she said softly, "Don't worry, Su Chang, I'm fine. I feel much better now."
Su Chang rolled his eyes, his expression revealing a hint of helplessness and warning, and said, "You still need to take care of yourself, understand?"
Fang Zhiheng understood that Su Chang was worried about her. She still had a smile on her face, nodded vigorously, and replied, "Okay, I understand."
Qin Shi had been carefully observing Gao Wen and Mi Duo, her eyes filled with doubt and curiosity. Then, she turned to Su Chang and asked, "Su Chang, who are those two?"
Su Chang then remembered that he had brought two people with him. He quickly explained, "These two are the people I found to take care of Lucy. Before Lucy recovers, you can just tell them what to do."
Qin Shi stared at Su Chang with a surprised expression. She had originally thought that the two people were Su Chang's friends, after all, they were both great beauties. She did not expect Su Chang to say such a thing.
Filled with questions, she asked, "You mean those two beautiful women are the caregivers you hired?"
"You could say that. Is there a problem?" Su Chang nodded casually, his expression natural, as if it were nothing special.
Guan Xiaodi also saw Gao Wen at this moment. A look of surprise and disdain appeared on her face. She had not forgotten how Gao Wen had bullied her in Kyoto last time.
She said sarcastically, "Oh! Isn't this the famous actress Gao Wen? How did you end up working as a caregiver?"
Upon hearing Guan Xiaodi's words, Mi Duo couldn't help but confront her. An angry expression appeared on her face, and she prepared to rush forward and argue with Guan Xiaodi.
However, Gao Wen quickly grabbed Mi Duo's arm and gently shook her head, signaling her not to speak. Gao Wen still had a smile on her face, but her eyes revealed a hint of determination and confidence.
She looked at Guan Xiaodi and said sincerely, "Xiaodi, I'm sorry! What I did before was wrong, please forgive me. This is Mr. Su's punishment for me, so please take good care of me in the future."
Guan Xiaodi didn't expect Gao Wen's attitude to change so drastically, but she didn't forgive Gao Wen immediately. After all, she understood that Gao Wen's change was probably because of Su Chang.
Su Chang shrugged indifferently and said, "You can just ask them directly."
Seeing Qin Shi's suspicious look, Gao Wen immediately said, "No matter what I say, it's useless. Just watch my performance."
"That's right, it's just taking care of someone, what's the big deal? Don't look down on people." Mi Duo didn't dare to argue with Su Chang, but that didn't mean she had a good temper. At this moment, she looked at Qin Shi with a defiant expression and said.
Qin Shi pursed her lips and said, "Okay then. We're a little thirsty. Go and get us some water."
"No, why should we..." Mido couldn't hold back any longer. They were only there to take care of Fang Zhiheng, so why should they have to take care of other women? She was about to retort immediately.
Gao Wen took Lamido's hand, then nodded with a smile and said, "No problem, but could you please tell me where the water dispenser and water cup are?"
Qin Shi pointed to the doorway and said, "It's on your right as you enter. You'll see it when you walk over there."
"Okay, thank you!" Gao Wen thanked her and turned to pour water without saying another word. Mi Duo glared at Qin Shi fiercely, and then quickly followed her. She knew that Gao Wen had never taken care of anyone before.
Qin Shi winked mischievously at Su Chang and whispered, "How about it? Is that what you mean?" with an expression that seemed to say, "Please praise me!"
Su Chang glared at her speechlessly, but didn't object. She continued, "Alright, let them handle whatever needs to be done. I'll be leaving now. Make sure to take good care of Lucy. Don't let her move around too much for the next two weeks. If you behave well, I'll take you on a trip once Lucy recovers. How about that?"
Qin Shi immediately said excitedly, "Don't worry, I've got it covered. Just wait and see how I take us on this trip."
Su Chang thought to herself: It's precisely because you're here that I'm worried.
However, he simply nodded and said calmly, "Alright, you all get some rest. I have something to do, so I'll be leaving now." Su Chang really didn't want to see the women fighting, so she quickly chose to leave.
Having escaped the chaotic scene, Su Chang felt slightly relieved. Thinking about Yang Tao's behavior today, he couldn't help but smile and decided to return to the Dongshan villa.
Driving back to the villa, Su Chang stepped inside and found that everyone except the maid was not home. He hesitated for only a moment before going to the kitchen alone to carefully prepare dinner, hoping to give the women a small surprise as a form of compensation.
At 6:30 p.m., Wen Gaoruohan was the first to return home. As soon as she smelled the delicious aroma coming from the kitchen, her face lit up with excitement, and she shouted, "Aunt Zhang, what delicious food did you make tonight? It smells so good!"
Hearing Wen Guohan's call, Zhang Ma came in from the backyard. She smiled and replied, "Madam Guohan, I didn't cook today, so I didn't know."
Upon hearing Zhang Ma's words, Wen Gao Ruohan showed a hint of surprise on her face. She stared at Zhang Ma and asked curiously, "Then who's cooking today? Is it Guan Guan?"
Aunt Zhang simply shook her head and then mouthed that it was the young master.
Wen Ruohan's eyes lit up instantly. Excited like a little rabbit, she hopped and skipped into the kitchen. When she saw that Su Chang was really cooking, she immediately jumped onto Su Chang's back, hugged his neck tightly, rested her head on his shoulder, and said sweetly, "Brother Su Chang, I missed you so much."
Hearing Wen Tianruohan's voice, Su Chang felt a surge of warmth in his heart. He smiled indulgently, but his hands didn't stop moving as he busied himself preparing the meal, playfully scolding, "Although I missed you too, I'm cooking right now, and there's so much smoke in here. Why don't you go take a shower and change your clothes before we eat?"
