Chapter 12 The Su Family
Su Ruan stormed back to her office and sat at her desk for half an hour without reading a single word.
She suddenly got up, opened the door, went to the stairwell, and called out to Xiaoxue repeatedly.
Xiaoxue ran over quickly, stood on the stairs, craned her neck, and looked up at Su Ruan.
"Boss, what's wrong? Call my internal line if it's urgent!"
I forgot about being angry.
Su Ruan gritted her teeth and said, "Tell everyone to stop Gu Jinyuan and not let him into my office."
"Oh? Huh?" Xiaoxue looked surprised. "Why?"
Su Ruan snorted, "Don't ask."
He turned around and walked back a few steps, then rushed back again.
"Xiaoxue, tell the security guards again not to allow Jiang Siyan to step into the company. Call the police if they see him."
"No problem." This time, Xiaoxue agreed especially readily.
Su Ruan turned around and went back to her office. She paced back and forth in the room, but didn't hear any noise downstairs.
She couldn't help but walk to the south-facing French windows and look back over and over again at the path she had taken back.
"Won't your pride be hurt so badly that you won't come back?"
"Hmph, it was clearly his fault, why is he more angry than me? He's so petty, all he did was slap me..."
"Oh, wait a minute. I think I was in such a rush when I left that I forgot to pay. Is the owner holding onto my things?"
Su Ruan grabbed her bag from the table, ready to bail the person out.
The phone in her bag buzzed. Su Ruan glanced at the screen as she went downstairs. It was a call from her mother.
She was somewhat happy; it seemed her mother missed her since she hadn't been home for several days.
Her mother still cared about her, and Su Ruan answered the phone with a smile, holding it to her ear.
Wen Ru's stern voice came from the other end of the phone, "Xiao Ruan, what's wrong with you? You're actually keeping a gigolo on the side?"
Although you are not our Su family’s biological daughter, you have been raised in our Su family for more than ten years. In the eyes of outsiders, your words and actions represent the face of our Su family.
It's fine if you fall into depravity, but if this gets out, how will Xiaoxin face people? What kind of good husband will she find in the future? How can you be so heartless?
Xiaoxin used to say you were jealous of her and always bullied her, but I didn't believe her. I never thought you would actually do something so despicable..."
Su Ruan was stunned by Wen Ru's barrage of angry words, and she quickly tried to explain, "Mom, I didn't..."
"Shut up, I don't have a daughter as despicable and disobedient as you."
As soon as Wen Ru finished speaking, Su Maoshi's angry voice came through the phone again, "Why are you wasting your breath talking to her? Tell her to get back here right now."
"You'd better be home within half an hour, or don't blame us for turning our backs on you." Wen Ru coldly said this and hung up the phone.
Su Ruan placed her feet one in front of the other on the stairs, and stood there stunned for a long time without moving.
Is it true that blood ties and family bonds still make us one family?
She had actually noticed long ago that her parents' attitude towards her had gradually cooled after Su Xin came back.
But she still harbored illusions about them, after all, the twenty-two years they had spent together were real.
Her parents should know her character and conduct.
She would never make things difficult for the biological daughter her parents had worked so hard to find.
Moreover, her parents treated her very well from a young age. Apart from strictly controlling her thoughts and social circle, everything else she ate, wore, and used was princess-level.
The day she learned she was adopted, her gratitude surged even more.
She had sworn to the gods that she would take good care of her parents and provide for them until their passing.
But why?
Why can her younger sister completely negate her character with just a few casual words and use such vicious language to scold her?
Su Ruan's eyes were slightly red, and her heart was filled with grievances.
He was so dazed that he almost fell down the stairs.
She couldn't let her parents misunderstand her like that; they were just too fond of their biological daughter, which blinded them for a moment.
Once she gets back, she can explain things properly, and her parents will definitely forgive her.
As she approached the car, her anxiety gradually subsided. She opened the door, started the car, and sped off towards her parents' house.
Su Ruan's car had just left the company when Gu Jinyuan returned.
After searching around and not finding anyone, he asked Xiaoxue with a gloomy face.
Where is your boss?
Although Xiaoxue was a little scared of Gu Jinyuan's expression, she still thought highly of this handsome and incredibly strong husband, so she boldly asked.
"Boss, did you and the boss have a fight?"
Gu Jinyuan's originally gloomy eyes softened upon hearing the words "boss's husband," and he glanced at Xiaoxue and hummed in agreement.
"Where is she? I'll go and comfort her."
"The boss just got called away from home," Xiaoxue replied.
"The Su family?" Gu Jinyuan's expression was somewhat strange.
Xiaoxue nodded, "Maybe your aunt and uncle miss the boss and want to invite her back for a meal."
"Miss you? My foot!"
What a hypocritical and despicable family! Once he wins over his wife, he'll definitely expose their true colors.
He cherishes the little people they don't care about, and he protects the little girl they're trying to exploit and hurt.
Gu Jinyuan turned and got into his car, instructing, "Go to the Su family to rescue them."
After running two red lights on the way, they finally arrived at the Su family's villa safely within half an hour.
"Mom and Dad, I'm home."
Not hearing any movement in the living room, Su Ruan lowered her head to change her shoes in the entryway, only to find that her special pair of slippers were no longer in the shoe cabinet.
She had no choice but to pull out a pair of guest slippers, put them on, and hurried into the living room.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw his parents and Su Xin's family of three diligently serving and trying to please Jiang Siyan.
Jiang Siyan's facial injuries had been treated, and he sat on the sofa with a gloomy expression, extremely annoyed by the Su family's attempts to please him.
Hearing the noise at the door and seeing Su Ruan come in, his eyes lit up. He was about to get up when he remembered the heartless scene this woman had just witnessed.
He coughed a few times, then lowered his eyelids and remained motionless.
Su Ruan glanced at him too. No wonder her parents found out about her so quickly; it turned out that this shameless man had come to their house to complain.
That's really despicable.
Even though they made a mistake and cheated, they still managed to turn the tables and show no remorse.
"Jiang Siyan, who let you into our house? Haven't you had enough of being beaten? Get out."
With a "smack," a dark shadow flew past Su Ruan's ear and landed on the ground, shattering into pieces.
Su Ruan turned around in surprise and saw her father's most beloved white porcelain teacup.
"dad--"
"Don't call me Dad. I don't have a daughter as lewd and shameless as you. Young Master Jiang kindly gave you some pointers, but what did you do? You let a pretty boy beat him up like this."
Just a moment ago, Young Master Jiang was trying to explain you away, saying that you were temporarily misled and that he would forgive you as long as you left that pretty boy.
"And yet, you come in so rude to Young Master Jiang! Have all the manners and sense of shame I taught you been wasted?"
