Chapter 138
As Su Youcheng’s tone gave people no room for doubt, Su Yuanming was unable toe up with an
excuse and could only agree with him. “Sure, I understand.”
Su Youcheng cast his nce up at him. “Go and do your work. I believe that such a minor issue won’t
cost you much time. It’s almost year end and thepany still needs you for a lot of stuff.”
Upon hearing this, Su Yuanming clenched his fists quietly as he understood what the meaning behind
Su Youcheng’s words was. He knew that Su Youcheng would not let him participate in any of the
company affairs until he settled this issue.
Although he felt that this was unfair for him, he could only suppress this feeling in his heart, because
Su Youcheng had always been the most authoritative person in the Su Family.
However, he was certain that Su Youcheng had be suspicious of him.
This lesson would make him more cautious in the future too.
Su Ziyue threw herself into her work after returning to her office.
Despite being able to guess that Su Youcheng would definitely put Su Yuanming down, she only
learned about the fact that Su Yuanming had been sent to deal with the press conference’s subsequent
work after talking with other senior executives.
When Su Ziyue heard about this, she could not help but feel pleased at his misfortune.
The core reason behind Su Yuanming disrupting the press conference with all means was actually to
give Su Youcheng the impression that Su Ziyue’s bad records had brought the Su Group losses again.
His n was to drive Su Ziyue out of the Su Group forever.
Nevertheless, life was not a bed of roses; if Su Yuanming was able to seed in everything he
nned, it would have been unusual.
He shall just have a taste of his own medicine.
In the afternoon, Su Ziyue was having lunch with An Xia in a restaurant.
While waiting for their meals to be served, Su Ziyue took out her phone to read the news.
On the headlines, Gu Hanyan’s photo appeared with a title written, ‘Gu Hanyan, the wless Goddess
has Confirmed to Act in the New Movie ‘The Longest Summer’…’
Property ? N?velDrama.Org.
There was a short video when Su Ziyue clicked on the news.
Gu Hanyan’s head was still in bandages, but she looked beautiful and elegant when answering the
questions smilingly.
Then, Su Ziyue scrolled on and saw a rmended news, which was an interview with Gu Hanyan
too. With her brow arched, she clicked on the link.
“Miss Gu, will you still be that app’s spokesperson after getting healed from your injuries?”
The reporter was referring to the application of thepany that Su Group had worked on with.
“Of course, I will. Our partnerpany is great, especially the person-in-charge. She has a great
personality and strong capabilities too. I understand that there are some negativements about her
on the Inte recently, but the Miss Su that I’vemunicated with is a really nice person…” When
she was done saying that, she gave the camera a wide smile.
The video was short and ended after another two questions from the reporter.
Su Ziyue put down her phone. Why did Gu Hanyan take my side? she thought to herself.
It was not because she had a gloomy outlook on life, but she really felt that Gu Hanyan was not such a
kind person.
Undoubtedly, Gu Hanyan was an intelligent woman; there must have been other purposes behind
everything an intelligent person said or did.
In addition, Gu Hanyan was a beautiful woman who had been eyeing Su Ziyue’s husband greedily.
An Xia, who was sitting opposite her, also saw the news and she said in surprise, “‘The Longest
Summer’? What kind of weird name is this? Gu Hanyan is such a reputable actress, but why did she
agree to act in this kind of movie?”
Due to the previous incident, An Xia did not call Gu Hanyan as ‘Goddess Yan’ anymore.
Su Ziyue asked, “What do you mean?”
“‘The Longest Summer’ is a low-budget film, and the directors aren’t well-known as well. Besides, the
plot looks old fashioned and I don''t think the script is good.” An Xia continued reading and added, “The
male lead and female lead knew each other during a summer and secretly developed feelings toward
each other. After being friends for more than ten years, the male lead however married someone else.
Nheless, he ended up with the female lead in the end…”
Su Ziyue furrowed her brows as the plot sounded familiar.
After pondering for a while, she could not help but pigeonhole herself in it.
Gu Hanyan has known Qin Muchen for more than ten years, but Qin Muchen is married to me now…
Not being aware of Su Ziyue’s expression, An Xia still continuedining, “What a terrible plot this
is! If they really love each other, why would they still need to wait for each other for more than ten
years?”
Su Ziyue said smilingly, “I think so too.”
Gu Hanyan really has a rich imagination. She must have resonated with the female lead so much that
she even agreed to act in this movie. And the plot even involves them secretly developing feelings for
each other? What nonsense. If Qin Muchen really has feelings toward Gu Hanyan, how can I still be his
wife?
After their lunch, Su Ziyue and An Xia walked back to thepany together.
They met Su Yuanming on their way.
“General Manager Su.” Su Ziyue stopped walking and looked at him with a smile.
Although Su Yuanming seemed to be in a foul mood, he still stered a smile on his face, because the
street was bustling and most of the passersby were Su Group’s employees. He said, “Ziyue.”
“About the press conference yesterday, I’m sorry too.” Su Ziyue lifted her chin slightly and did not look
apologetic at all.
Her words made Su Yuanming’s smile freeze. Before he could reply, Su Ziyue fixed her gaze on him
and continued saying, “Life is just a mixture of good and bad times, but disappointment is the norm. It’s
actually bad if everything just goes smoothly, just like what happened to me in the past. Fortunately,
Grandpa is willing to trust me now.”
Although everyone in the Su Family kept scheming and plotting to kick her out of the family, she still
remained in Su Group and had even gotten his father’s shares back.
When Su Yuanming heard that, he could no longer control his emotions and just walked away angrily.
His reaction made Su Ziyue snort. You can’t even endure this? It seems like you’ve met too little
difficulties in your life.
However, Su Ziyue could not help but think about her father whenever the incident during the press
conference popped into her mind.
She always believed that her father was an honest and kind man.
Despite having lost his wife for almost ten years, this man still focused on raising his daughter and
working instead of remarrying or getting into a new rtionship. Hence, how could such a man have
commited a crime?
Su Yuanming’s action this time gave Su Ziyue a feeling that her father might have been framed by
someone who felt threatened by his existence.
If this assumption was confirmed, only someone from the Su Family would frame her father.
For a moment, Su Ziyue felt a chill running down her spine.
Even though Daddy doesn’t share the same mother with Su Yuanming, they’re still blood-rted.
Besides… Raising her head slightly, Su Ziyue let out a deep sigh, suppressing the suffocating feeling
and the lump in her throat. If the Su Family is really the culprit, I’ll never let them off.
There was a glint of determination in Su Ziyue’s eyes. She only returned to thepany after pulling
herself together.
When she was getting off work, An Xia suddenly came to her sneakily. “Ziyue, our ss has nned a
gathering in the chat group.”
Su Ziyue was startled and she only spoke after a while. “High school ssmates?”
“Yes…” An Xia looked hesitant because she knew that Su Ziyue did not have great memories toward
the end of her high school life.
