Chapter 137
Throughout the whole time when Su Youcheng walked into the room while speaking, Su Ziyue
remained cool and calm. She even picked up the newspaper curiously after seeing it being thrown
before her. Herst time reading the news wasst night, because she was not free this morning.
The headlines read, ‘Breaking News! A Company’s Female Senior Manager Is Suspected to Be in an
Affair With a Tycoon.’
Su Ziyue briefly read through the content. ‘A female senior manager from Yunzhou City’s leading
company…’ Why didn’t they just write my name? I could have just sued them if they dared to write my
name. The ignorant are truly fearless, I suppose. How I wish I could give them a p to the face by
showing them the certificate of marriage between Qin Muchen and I.
When Su Youcheng saw Su Ziyue simply reading the newspaper seriously and quietly without giving
him an exnation, he became more furious. “How can you still have the mood to read the newspaper
now?!” Su Youcheng was so angry that he just threw his briefcase onto his table.
However, Su Ziyue did not pay attention to his anger and remained as calm as ever. She even looked
innocent when she looked up at Su Youcheng. “So, this newspaper that you’ve brought here isn’t for
me to read it? I won’t read it then.” While speaking, Su Ziyue put the newspaper aside and sat up
properly to look at Su Youcheng.

Upon seeing her impenitent expression, Su Youcheng was boiling with anger. “Su Ziyue, are you not
nning to exin about the incident yesterday?”
“The other person involved isn’t here yet. How can I exin about it alone?” Su Ziyue was referring to
Su Yuanming. “At that time, Grandpa, you said by yourself that General Manager Su’s assistance was
required in order to prevent faults from happening. Hence, Grandpa, you can’t push all the me to me
now that something really went wrong.” Lowering her gaze to look at her hands, Su Ziyue added
casually, “Besides, General Manager Su told me that he would help me to settle this perfectly at that
time.” Although Su Ziyue addressed him respectfully, she did not sound humble; she sounded
aggressive instead.
Unfortunately, Su Youcheng was unable to refute after listening to her words. At that time, he had
indeed sent Su Yuanming to help Su Ziyue because he believed that she was incapable of settling this
matter. However, everything had turned worse in the end.
“If you hadn’t done something so embarrassing, how would the media have found the opportunity to
attack?” Su Youcheng had no doubts of the incident that year.
There was a glint of coldness in Su Ziyue’s eyes when she cast her nce up at Su Youcheng.
“Grandpa, now that the medical skills are so advanced, do you think that I can check whether I’ve had
an abortion or not at the hospital?”
Su Youcheng frowned because he did not really understand what Su Ziyue meant now. Moreover, her
gaze was piercingly cold and a bit sardonic. Not only was her gaze on him not as friendly as Su Yige’s
gaze on him, but she also looked unusually distant and indifferent. Indeed, she looked as though she
was facing a stranger now.
This made Su Youcheng’s frown grow even deeper. In his opinion, Su Ziyue was always the one at
fault as she had brought disgrace to the Su Family. Nevertheless, Su Ziyue just spoke as though she
had a clear conscience.
Turning around, Su Youcheng walked to his table and sat down, then he waved his hand dismissively.
“Never mind. About the subsequent work, I’ll let other people settle it. You just need to be disciplined
and don’t cause me any more trouble.”
Recently, his health was deteriorating, and he would even think about his imprisoned eldest son, Su
Yizi sometimes. As for his youngest son, Su Yuanming, who was going to take over the business, he
was undeniably less capable than his elder brother. Moreover, Su Youcheng was actually more
satisfied with Su Ziyue’s working style.
Su Ziyue arched her brow discreetly as she felt Su Youcheng’s sudden soft-heartedness strange.
However, she would not let Su Yuanming, who had just framed her, off easily. What’s that saying
again? A beggar can never be bankrupt.
Since she had never expected to take over the Su Group, it was interesting to see Su Yuanming—the
official sessor—kept being on guard against her. “Grandpa, you must be aware of everything that
I’ve done since returning to Yunzhou City. I’ve really turned over a new leaf and I wish to aplish
something to make you happy. Since the Su Family is an influential family in Yunzhou City, why would
the media suddenly report this news without someone ying a part?”
Su Ziyue kept an eye on Su Youcheng’s expression while speaking. She had made her meaning clear
without going straight to the point, since she could sense how distrustful Su Youcheng was toward Su
Yuanming. The older, the wiser; whenever Su Yuanming plotted something, Su Youcheng would
definitely learn about it no matter how sneakily it was done.
Let me just nt a seed of doubt in Grandpa’s mind first. By that time, it’ll be great if I get to see this
pair of father and son turning against one another. Thinking about this, Su Ziyue could not help but let
out a sigh of relief.
Since Su Youcheng was more satisfied with Su Ziyue, he would naturally take in her advice. Hence, Su
Ziyue’s words had sent him deep in thought without realizing it himself.
When Su Ziyue saw his reaction, she knew that she had achieved her aim. Standing up, her attitude
was now less hostile as before, and she even said softly, “Grandpa, I’ll leave now. About what
happened this time, I have my own faults too. I’ll work harder in the future.”
“Okay.” Upon hearing her words, Su Youcheng just waved at her distractedly as his mind was already
upied with something else.
After taking another nce at him, Su Ziyue turned around and left. When the office door was closed,
Su Youcheng took out his phone to give Su Yuanming a call.
“Dad,” Su Yuanming said, sounding somewhat breathless.
Su Youcheng knew that he was still walking by listening to his voice. This angered him at once. “What
time is it now? Why aren’t you at thepany yet?” As Su Youcheng had the habit of reaching the
company half an hour early, he disliked seeing his employees beingte, not to mention that he was
currently in an angered state.
Su Yuanming was rendered speechless by his question. Knowing that Su Youcheng was angry, he
could only swallow his excuse. Then, he said in an attempt to appease Su Youcheng, “I’ll reach soon.
I’m already at thepany’s entrance.”
Upon listening to this, Su Youcheng finally simmered down a bit. Nheless, he did not say anything
else but just hung up the call.
When Su Yuanming reached the office, Su Youcheng had already read through some documents. With
his brows furrowed, he raised his head to nce at Su Yuanming and then resumed reading the
documents without saying a word.
“Dad?” Su Yuanming could not really gauge his father’s mood, and he only said after thinking for a
while, “About the press conference yesterday, it was my fault…”
This time, Su Youcheng put down the documents in his hands and looked him in the eyes. “It’s good
that you know it’s your fault. Now, I’m giving you a chance to correct your mistakes. Go and settle this
issue.”
Su Yuanming nodded and said sincerely, “Sure.”
“Also, now that Ziyue is thepany’s director and has an outstanding performance, her reputation
can’t be tainted. Even if it is, think of a way to prove her innocence.” Su Youcheng leaned backward,
his expression unfathomable.
Su Yuanming was startled after hearing this. “But everything is true…”
“I only want the results.” Su Youcheng fixed his gaze on him and then said tersely, “Besides, go and
find out who’s the person behind this. I’m curious to know who’s daring enough to go against the Su
Family.”
