Chapter 64
“He said that he was wrong about you and the Su Group, actually daring to use such dirty tricks...” Su
Ziyue’s voice turned small and meek when she reached the end of her sentence.
Su Youcheng’s face became pale, and he turned to Su Yige, scolding her right in her face, “This was all
your idea. Tell me, where did you get all these crooked ideas? Is this what our family taught you?”
“Grandpa, I merely wanted to get the contract signed as soon as possible. I didn’t think that things
would turn out like this.” It was the first time in her life that he spoke so loudly to her, and it caught her
off guard.

“You didn’t think? Do you only have water in your head? So you''re saying that after raising you for so
many years, the Su family has raised you to be an idiot?”
Su Youcheng was harsh with his words, and the more he spoke, the angrier he became, which was
something out of Su Ziyue’s expectation.
“Grandpa!” Feeling wronged, Su Yige’s eyes turned red. When she made this request, he had
obviously given his silent consent.
And now that the president of LK had guessed that it was them who schemed behind his back, he
shifted all the me on her.
“Grandpa, don’t be so angry. The president of LK still trusts you and your reputation will not suffer.
Calm down now,” Su Ziyue said and went to help him take a seat. “How about I get the secretary to
make you a cup of tea?”
At this point, there was nothing she did not understand anymore. Anything that Su Yige did, she always
had her own ns in mind, and she would find ways to gain the approval of Su Youcheng before going
ahead with it.
Even so, she miscalcted one point. In his lifetime, Su Youcheng was most proud of the Su Group
and he wanted to keep growing it. Because of that, he was extremely conscious about what his
business partners thought about him.
“Reflect on what you have done for a while. In the meantime, someone else will take over your position
in thepany. You can leave now.” Su Youcheng took the opportunity given by Su Ziyue to let the
matter rest, but in his heart, he was still worried that she would know that he had given his silent
consent on this matter. But looking at her now, she probably did not know about it.
Knowing that it would be pointless to say anything now, Su Yige turned and left. This was another time
Su Ziyue had counter-attacked her, and her hatred for her deepened.
After she left, Su Ziyue stayed behind a little longer to console Su Youcheng before leaving herself.
When she returned to her office, she saw that An Xia was waiting for her inside.
Rushing over, An Xia nced at her swollen face with a worried look on her face. “That woman didn’t
hold back at all!”
“I didn’t think that your idea would work so well. She got so angry that she threw a p at me straight
away,” Su Ziyue said as she took out a pocket mirror from her handbag. Her face was indeed swollen
rather badly.
“You must have not noticed it before. During schooling days, whenever Gong Zeyang smiled at you,
the look in Su Yige’s eyes…” An Xia trailed off as she recalled the scene, and she felt a chill run down
her spine.
Not only were they ssmates, An Xia and Su Ziyue were also good friends. So there were many
opportunities for her to meet Su Yige and Gong Zeyang.
Slightly taken aback, Su Ziyue tried to remember, but she could not really recall anything. “Why does
she still hate me so much even when Gong Zeyang is now her fiance? Is she addicted to bullying me?”
Puzzled, Su Ziyue could never understand what Su Yige was thinking about. She really did not know
how and why her existence threatened Su Yige so much that she was constantly trying to go against
her.
“If you want to understand what she’s thinking, you must first be a person like her.” An Xia’s
dislike for Su Yige began when they were still in school.
“Then I won’t try to figure out what''s on her mind, but this matter won’t end so easily.”
Recalling what had happened years ago, she could only say that she was still young then and had
pinned her hopes on the Su family, which was the reason why she fell so hard.
Still, An Xia did not think that the incident this time would affect Su Yige too much. “Isn’t she always
loved by President Su?”
“A student who scores ny percent once after always getting a perfect score would lead people to
think that she regressed, but people would rainpliments on a student who scored sixty percent
suddenly after always scoring fifty-nine percent before. Such is human nature,” Su Ziyue said with a
little excitement in her voice.
“You’re naughty, Ziyue.” An Xia chortled, and Su Ziyue stayed silent.

By the time it was time to leave work, rumors had started in thepany.
And it was obviously about Su Yige pping Su Ziyue out of jealousy at her sess of signing the
contract with LK.
There were also people defending Su Yige, saying that a person with an upbringing like her would not
raise her hand at someone in public, so it must have been Su Ziyue who had overstepped her bounds.
But the two sayings turned intopliments for Su Ziyue in the end.
“I thought Su Ziyue was only good-looking, but I didn’t expect her to be capable as well.”
“What sort of capabilities could someone like her have? Maybe she used her body for… that.”
“Hey, what sort of person do you take the president of LK for? By simply sending a beautiful woman to
sleep with him, he will sign the contract and cooperate? How could the LK Group grow so big if that
was the case?”
“That sounds somewhat reasonable. So it turns out that Su Ziyue is capable indeed.”
“In fact, I think Director Su is too pretentious. No matter what the reason was, she shouldn’t hit a
person’s face in front of so many people. Moreover, it was her own cousin. Perhaps all that gentleness
and elegance was just a front…”
Once the voices outside faded, only then did Su Ziyue step out of the toilet cubicle.
This was the effect which she wanted; a mix of good and bad, as too much goodness would have
adverse effects. The situation now was just the perfect bnce.
An Xia came in suddenly and blurted when she saw her, “I thought you fell in the toilet. Are you
regretting your decision to buy me dinner?”
After waiting for a long while outside for Su Ziyue, she could hold it no more and came in to look for
her.
Raising her eyebrow, Su Ziyue asked, “Would I care about that little bit of money?” Since she had
some shares in her hands, she was one of the shareholders who would receive a share of dividends at
the end of the year.
An Xia rolled her eyes. “Compared to Mr. Qin, that little bit of money of yours…” She trailed off on
purpose at the end and merely chuckled so Su Ziyue would get the meaning herself.
Su Ziyue phased out at the mention of Qin Muchen. At the end of the day, she still had to thank him.
Initially, she said that she was the one using him. As it turned out now, both of them were using each
other. For their own purposes, they had to use each other.

On Saturday morning, Su Ziyue received a call from Su Youcheng.
“There’s a family gathering at the Lumiere Jade House tonight. Come on time.” He spoke without
allowing her to put in her word. Obviously, Su Ziyue had to attend the gathering.
Recalling what had happened thest time she attended a family gathering, she became dreary.
“I’m afraid Grandma and Auntie wouldn’t want to see me. I’m not going, in case I dampen everybody’s
spirits. I’ll remember your concern for me in my heart, Grandpa.” Speaking softly and gently, that hint of
dreariness in her voice could only be heard if one listened intently.
Her polite words seemed to please Su Youcheng, and he softened his tone a little. “We’re a family, so
juste as I told you to. You shouldn’t be aughing stock for others.”
