When she returned to the Su family home, she looked at her own front door and felt completely unfamiliar with it.
The Su family home is where she grew up, and also where Su Ning grew up.
After Su made money, she had the capital to buy another villa elsewhere, but for some reason, she didn't!
She stayed with Qiao Zhentian, bought him a house outside, but didn't move out to live there.
She was reluctant to sell the house. On the one hand, with the skyrocketing housing prices in the southern part of the city, the Su residence had become incredibly expensive; on the other hand, she couldn't bear to part with it.
Su Xincheng stepped inside, and a maid came over and quietly told her, "Miss He has arrived."
Upon hearing He Ru's name, Su Xincheng didn't react with the usual joy; instead, she frowned.
She hurried inside, where He Ru was sitting on the sofa in the living room, comforting Qiao Yimo.
"Su Xincheng, why are you only just getting back!"
He Ru raised her head, showing no intention of standing up to greet her host, despite being a guest.
"Mother!"
When Qiao Yimo saw Su Xincheng, she quickly got up and went over to her.
Her eyes were swollen from crying, and she looked at Su Xincheng with a pitiful expression.
After the Brilliant Competition ended, Su Xincheng ignored her.
This made her even more panicked than the plagiarism incident at the Gu family's final draft meeting. Su Xincheng had never gone so long without speaking to her, and she remained unmoved even when she saw her tears.
"What's up?"
Unlike before, Su Xincheng didn't smile happily when she saw He Ru, nor did she get anxious when she saw Qiao Yimo crying.
"Su Xincheng, what kind of attitude is this!"
He Ru's anger flared up immediately. Su Xincheng had spoken to her in such a cold tone and hadn't even comforted Momo.
What do you want to say?
Su Xincheng replied in a low voice. She was in a bad mood at the moment and was very unhappy with He Ru who was questioning her.
He Ru was taken aback and looked at the unfamiliar Su Xincheng with a strange expression.
When have I ever heard Su Xincheng speak in such a cold tone, or seen her give me such a cold shoulder?
Over the years, she and Qiao Yimo had completely fooled Su Xincheng, always thinking that Su Xincheng was useless.
They forgot that Su Xincheng had once managed the Su family business. Although she hadn't managed it very well, it wasn't bad either.
How could a woman who can compete with men for resources and funds in the business world be truly useless?
“Su Xincheng, Momo has been wronged.”
He Ru softened her tone. During the Brilliant Competition, in order to protect Qiao Yimo's reputation, she took all the blame upon herself.
However, this incident had a significant impact on her.
Her studio's orders were all cancelled within an hour of the competition.
Today was even worse; all the designers in the studio resigned, and even the landlord came to her door saying he wouldn't rent the shop to her anymore.
She had no choice but to come to the Su family, firstly to see Momo, and secondly to ask Su Xincheng to bring her back to the Su family business.
"What wrong have you done?"
Su Xincheng asked the maid to bring over her health tea. She sat on the sofa, crossed her legs, and listened to He Ru continue.
Su Xincheng has lived a life of luxury all these years, so she pays great attention to her face and knows how to take care of it.
"Didn't she plagiarize Su Ning's work?"
Here, Su Xincheng said "Su Ning," which made He Ru smile.
As expected, Su Xincheng still disliked Su Ning.
"That's right, how could Momo plagiarize Su Ning's work!"
"You've always known about Momo's abilities and skill level." He Ru looked at Su Xincheng slowly eating bird's nest, and then at Su Xincheng's fair and smooth face, a hint of disgust showing in her eyes.
