Looking at Li Yanyu's excessively pale face, Su Xiaoxiao took out another spare agreement from her handbag with a half-smile.
"Do you know why the Nangong family hasn't publicly revealed my status as their daughter-in-law?"
"You're already the daughter-in-law of the Nangong family. You don't have the ability to make them acknowledge you, yet you dare to question me!"
Li Yanyu dared not accept the agreement, but her face turned ashen at that moment.
"Don't even think about threatening me with nonsense."
“A threat? Every penny the Nangong family earns is clean. You and my father are addicted to gambling, yet the creditors have come to the Nangong Group. Nangong Yi hasn’t directly sued you in court; that’s already being quite lenient. Besides, I will pay off your four million gambling debts as repayment for raising you. And this 120,000 is for your future living expenses!”
Seeing that Li Yanyu was hesitating, Su Xiaoxiao did not give her the chance. She handed the agreement closer to Li Yanyu.
"I'll give you five seconds to consider. If you don't agree, then pretend I was never here, and you'll have to settle your own debts!"
"Xiaoxiao, do you think you could..."
"cannot!"
Before Li Yanyu could even finish speaking, Su Xiaoxiao directly refused, her resolute expression leaving no room for doubt.
"Three, two..."
"Little one, look..."
"one!"
Su Xiaoxiao counted down to the last second, and just as she was about to snatch the money bag back from Li Yanyu, Li Yanyu quickly hid the money bag behind her back.
"Okay, I'll sign it, I'll sign it."
"I'll leave this to you."
Su Xiaoxiao was too lazy to waste any more words with Li Yanyu. After handing the things over to Dong Jinyang, she quickly went upstairs to the original owner's bedroom.
She remembered that Su Xiaoxiao had a small notebook specifically for recording her relationships with friends. In the past few days, she had received many text messages from 'friends', some asking about her private life and others inviting her to parties, but she rejected them all.
Where is it?
Su Xiaoxiao searched almost the entire room but couldn't find the notebook, so in frustration, she had no choice but to go downstairs.
Seeing that Dong Jinyang had successfully gotten Li Yanyu to sign the document, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Um, have you seen the pink notebook I used to jot things down?"
"The pink notebook? Is that the one you usually use to keep track of your expenses?"
"Um."
Su Xiaoxiao wasn't sure if it was the notebook in question, but she nodded nonetheless.
"Didn't you say on your wedding day that you wouldn't need it and would throw it away?"
Li Yanyu stared at Su Xiaoxiao suspiciously, feeling that something was off.
She quickly pulled the person aside and asked a few questions in a low voice.
Su Xiaoxiao showed no panic. She glanced at Li Yanyu and said seriously, "I know I threw the notebook away that day, but you know why I was writing in it. Didn't you pick it up for me?"
"Why...why should I pick it up?"
"never mind!"
Su Xiaoxiao didn't dwell on the fact that the notebook was gone.
She didn't linger at home; after taking the agreement from Dong Jinyang, she quickly left.
"Little one!"
As soon as Su Xiaoxiao stepped out of the house, she saw Su Dehong rushing back. As if she had expected this, she simply smiled faintly upon seeing him.
"Xiaoxiao, what do you mean by this?"
"Dad, I've made myself perfectly clear. Besides, I'll make everything public, so you can all look forward to it!" Su Xiaoxiao said this, then got into her car and left without looking back.
