Chapter 274 I'm Refusing to Go to the Banquet



"Mother!"

She could only cry to Su Xincheng.

Su Xincheng didn't speak. She looked at Qiao Yimo coldly, which made Qiao Yimo feel flustered.

"How can Ningning be an outsider!"

An angry voice followed, and Qiao Zhentian raised his hand and slapped Qiao Yimo.

His hand had been healing for so long, but it still wasn't fully healed. The slap wasn't very forceful, but it still made Qiao Yimo's cheek turn red.

“Ningning is so pitiful, it would be acceptable to give her all of Su’s shares.”

"MoMo, you can go out now."

Su Xincheng said that Qiao Yimo covered her aching cheek and left crying sadly.

There were only Qiao Zhentian and Su Xincheng in the room. Qiao Zhentian went over and held Su Xincheng's cold hand. "Xincheng, Su's Group was given to Ningning. I don't care."

He looked at Su Xincheng with great tenderness.

What Su Xincheng valued most about this man was his gentleness and his unwavering consideration for her.

She used to be very content with this kind of life.

During this period, she felt that something was wrong! She even wondered if everything she had done over the years had been wrong.

“I cannot give it to the Su family.”

Su Xincheng said in a calm voice.

Four years ago, she accepted five million yuan from the Gu family on behalf of Su Ning to fill the Su family's financial shortage at the time.

What Su Ning didn't know was that more than 20 years ago, that man also bought out everything she owned for five million.

“I will try to get the shares she holds, and if I can’t, I will compete for the shares of other shareholders.”

"Um!"

Qiao Zhentian wanted to hear Su Xincheng's words. He nodded in agreement and then sighed softly, "Xincheng, it's all my fault that you and Ningning have ended up like this."

Su Xincheng did not answer. Looking at Qiao Zhentian's apologetic expression, she recalled what Su Ning had said about what Qiao Zhentian had done four years ago.

Also, there was the video Su Ning gave me of He Ru having an affair with a man in the office.

Qiao Zhentian explained about the video: it was He Ru's boyfriend, but the person in the video looked somewhat similar to him from behind.

Su Xincheng didn't know whether she should believe it or not.

After Old Master Su's funeral, it was Mr. Gu's birthday banquet.

The Gu family holds a very high position in Nancheng. This year, for the eldest son's 65th birthday, the Gu family held a grand celebration, which became the biggest banquet in Nancheng this year.

On the day of the banquet, all the major families of high society will be in attendance, and I heard that many families from the capital will also come to give congratulatory gifts.

For such an important banquet, Gu Jingchen tore up the invitation. Gu Ran and Madam Gu called the Gu family one after the other, but Gu Jingchen flatly refused to go.

As Mr. Gu's only son and the current head of the Gu family, if he doesn't attend the birthday banquet, both Mr. Gu and the Gu family will lose face, and the rumors about the discord between Gu Jingchen and Mr. Gu will once again spread like wildfire.

Gu Jingchen refused to go no matter what. He thought, even if the King of Heaven himself invited him, he wouldn't go.

That evening, Gu Jingchen, who had skipped work, was busy in the kitchen preparing a delicious meal for Su Ning.

As long as Su Ning is happy, she'll even let him mop the floor and do the laundry.

Su Ning, having changed her clothes, came out and saw Gu Jingchen wearing an apron, busy in the kitchen.

After tasting the first dish the man cooked, she said it was alright. So he turned down all the social engagements and errands he could to go home, research recipes, and cook for her.

Moreover, he seemed quite absorbed in it and very happy about it.

Su Ning felt a headache coming on as she watched him "fiercely" chopping away in the kitchen.
