Su Youli is forced to marry as a substitute, suppressing her true nature to become the obedient replacement that satisfies Li Tingxi—servicing him in bed at night and working tirelessly by day.
...Chapter 159 Humiliation
"Never mind how you got here, if you dare to do it, you have to be responsible." Chairman Zhou glanced at her contemptuously. "Where did I go wrong when I said your methods for getting ahead weren't honorable? You were parachuted into Yi Tao by clinging to President Li's coattails. When you were tasked with solving projects, you went and seduced the young master of the Shi family! When you were tasked with finding the missing President Li, you stayed overnight at the Yin family's house and got entangled with a security guard all night."
Chairman Zhang sighed dramatically, then scoffed, "President Su uses her youth and beauty as capital, which is none of our business, but please don't go out and embarrass yourself under the guise of being the president of Yitao!"
Su Youling tore up the photos expressionlessly and threw them in the faces of the two men. "You two are disrespectful to your elders, spreading rumors and slander that violate my personal dignity... If you don't apologize now, you can expect to receive a lawyer's letter."
"you!"
"President Su, don't be angry." Zhao Fu pretended to pull away the agitated Chairman Zhang and Chairman Zhou, and said a few words of advice, "It's just that time is tight and the task is heavy. Everyone is concerned about the project, and it's inevitable that they lost their temper for a moment."
"Mr. Zhao, if I remember correctly, you are no longer an employee of Yitao Culture. Who brought you in?" Su Youling gave Zhao Fu a completely cold look, skipping all the pretense of politeness.
"Originally, I just wanted to come and help out since this project started because of me, but I didn't expect to make you angry." Zhao Fu's face darkened, and he glanced at the directors who were still furious. He stood up regretfully. "President Su, I'll leave now. I hope you won't blame everyone."
Zhao Xinning quickly followed, unusually well-behaved today.
Why would the board members release him?
Seeing Su Youling's arrogance, everyone was even more furious after hearing Zhao Fu's humble and aggrieved words.
"Su Youling, do you really think you're some kind of local tyrant in the world of Yitao culture? Without President Zhao, where would Yitao be today? And who do you think you are?" Chairman Zhou took the lead in arguing with Su Youling.
Su Youling gave him a cold sidelong glance. "Chairman Zhou is tall and strong, how come he only grows older but not smarter? The project failure was caused by Zhao Fu, and I didn't hold him accountable on behalf of the company because of President Li!"
Jay Chou was furious: "You!"
"You've been used as pawns and you're still gloating, thinking you've done a huge favor for royalty and that you'll rise to prominence in the future?" Su Youling changed her previous conciliatory approach, coldly looking at Zhao Fu and his daughter who had walked to the door, her tone exceptionally harsh, "Zhao Fu, did you hire someone to take these photos?"
Zhao Fu frowned, feeling uneasy about Su Youling's sudden tough attitude. "President Su, I kindly sent you such an important invitation. What do you mean by that?"
Zhao Xinning angrily accused, "That's right! Su Youling, your attitude of crossing the river and burning the bridge is too hateful! My father gave you a chance and helped you get into the Yin family, but you were busy seducing men and that's why you didn't find President Li. Now you come back and take your anger out on everyone?"
Su Youling narrowed her eyes, a cold glint flashing in them.
"Say that again?" She raised her hand slightly, and her sharp posture frightened Zhao Xinning into retreating repeatedly, only then did she hear Su Youling sneer.
A blatant act of humiliation and ridicule.
Zhao Xinning was furious and embarrassed. "You can only be arrogant for a short while. My aunt will be here soon to seek justice for my father. You should also fulfill your bet and get out of here."
“Your dad should be the one fired.” Su Youling pushed everyone aside, turned on the computer, plugged in the USB drive given to her by Butler Li, and showed the screen to everyone. “This is evidence of Zhao Fu’s embezzlement of public funds and bribery during his tenure, as well as his instruction to Manager Liu to illegally forge labor contracts for frontline workers. This is a violation of labor laws…”

Some of the fickle directors, seeing this, began to waver in their resolve. "This... Zhao Fu actually did so many awful things behind our backs?"
"No wonder Yitao Culture seemed to have signed a lot of big deals in recent years, but it has been going downhill. It turns out that he has embezzled all the money for personal use."
"It's no wonder that the headquarters has its eye on Yitao Culture. They're all in cahoots. Zhao Fuguang has embezzled nearly 100 million yuan from the books alone."
Zhao Fu and Zhao Xinning exchanged a glance, their expressions subtly changing.
How did Su Youling get hold of the evidence in Li Zhongling's possession?
Did she see Li Zhongling last night?
But why would Li Zhongling help her? Wouldn't that be blatantly throwing mud at himself?
“Su Youling, you should use your brain before fabricating evidence. Many of these accounts involve the interests of my father and Li Zhongling. If they are exposed, neither of them will escape.” Zhao Xinning stepped forward to retort, “Even if you saw Li Zhongling last night, how could he give you these things? Did he also succumb to your body?”
Most of the directors were men, and they were all part of Zhao Fu's faction. Hearing this, they seemed reassured and let out some lewd laughter.
Jay Chou scoffed, "Well, Mr. Li is quite old too. Can he still get excited in front of you?"
Chairman Zhang sneered, "I think she's going to be kicked out of Yitao Culture, so she might as well give up and start smearing people everywhere."
Being humiliated in front of a group of lewd old men like this, Su Youling's face turned cold, and a surge of anger rose from the depths of her eyes to the top of her head, almost causing her to crush her phone.
Don't be angry!
Getting angry can harm your baby!
Wait a little longer, until the Economic Crime Investigation Team arrives, and these people will no longer be able to laugh.
She calmly turned on her phone to record a video, and said coldly, "Keep cursing. Zhao Fu will get what he deserves later, and none of you will escape either."
The group was taken aback for a moment, then burst into laughter at her childish threat. "So you're out of options? Feeling guilty and speechless?"
"Are you recording this to get some big influencers to expose us? Fine, I dare say you're afraid you won't dare to release it, otherwise how will you ever face anyone again?"
"That's right. Even if you used to be with President Li and now you've climbed up to the powerful figures in B City, once your true colors are exposed and your reputation is ruined, what powerful man would still want a used woman like you who's slept with a thousand men?"
Su Youling clenched her fists tightly, leaning back in her chair coldly as she looked at the group of reckless old men, considering whether she should call security to tear their mouths apart...
No, that would make her look guilty!
Let them be smug for a while longer!
Su Youling closed her eyes, ignoring the profanities, but the people only intensified their insults, telling her to pack her things and get out of there.
Bang!
The door was kicked open roughly.
Li Tingxi led Qin He in, followed by four or five imposing bodyguards. They walked in aggressively, intimidating the group of grown men who took a few steps back.
Zhao Fu grasped Zhao Xinning's hand, and both father and daughter's expressions changed.
Why is Li Tingxi here at this time?
Didn't Li's mother say she had a way to get him away?
Why is he still in City B?
No wonder Su Youling is so confident!
