Chapter 646: The Villainous Daughter in the Noble Academy (43)
There were always people surrounding Lu Suizhou, and Su Yu couldn't find a chance to get close to him, which made her feel frustrated.
“So annoying.”
Su Yu finished the red wine in the glass in one gulp. She couldn't remember how many glasses she had drunk. Her cheeks were a little hot, so hot that she couldn't even stand steadily.
She looked up at Lu Suizhou, but found that she had lost him in a moment of distraction.
Su Yu frowned slightly, and with a gloomy face, she scolded Lu Suizhou for being cold and heartless.
Her phone was vibrating; someone was calling her.
Su Yu looked around but still didn't see Lu Suizhou, so she had to give up on following him and found a place to answer the phone with her dizzy head.
"That's it for now. I'll discuss the details when I get back." Lu Suizhou hung up the phone and took a breath on the balcony.
The night breeze blows gently, bringing a faint scent of flowers.
Lu Suizhou put down his phone and leaned against the railing to relax for a while. From here, the bright banquet hall was in full view. He was unconsciously looking for something, but he never saw that figure.
Realizing who he was looking for, Lu Suizhou's face darkened.
"Hello?" The girl's voice came from the balcony next door. It was as if she was drunk, and her voice was vague and soft. "He Jinan, why are you calling?"
Lu Suizhou instantly knew where that person was.
His sparse eyebrows drooped and he suddenly sneered. Giving up halfway is not a good habit. Since you want to follow him, just follow him. The Su family's affairs can be discussed. It's a pity that a certain heartless person is as indecisive as before.
The words from the other side were blown over by the wind and poured into Lu Suizhou's ears.
The person on the other end seemed to be asking about the company, and the girl was vague and impatient: "It's all on the news, what else is there to ask?"
Lu Suizhou should have left. Eavesdropping on other people's privacy is not what a gentleman should do, but his legs felt like they were filled with lead and he stood there motionless.
He leaned against the railing and closed his eyes slightly to sober up.
Words came to my ears one after another:
"None of your business."
"What can you do to help me? Just participate in the competition."
"Bankruptcy is none of your business."
"If my family really goes bankrupt, I will come to you..."
Lu Suizhou didn't listen to the rest of the words.
He almost fled from that place. He didn't want to think about what Su Yu would say next. He went to find He Jinan, and then what? What was their relationship now, and what would it be in the future?
Five years later, Lu Suizhou thought he could ignore Su Yu and not care about anything about her, including her relationship with He Jinan.
They are already strangers.
So what was he doing now? Why was he running away? Why wasn't he listening? What was he afraid of?
Without an audience, Su Yu's words still spread with the wind to the empty balcony next door:
"...I will go find you and get back all the money my father has spent on you over the years, including the principal and interest." Su Yu said viciously.
After saying that, Su Yu hung up the phone.
After Lu Suizhou went abroad, Su Yu and He Jinan did not get together as everyone expected, and even Su Hao was puzzled.
However, as He Jinan gradually showed his talent in academics, Su Hao no longer worried about other things and began to sponsor He Jinan, providing him with many opportunities. He also helped him find out the truth and give justice to his father. The only requirement was that he work for Su's research institute after graduation.
But now...if the Su company goes bankrupt, He Jinan might be able to get one less indenture.
After a while of cool breeze, I sobered up a lot.
There was still no trace of Lu Suizhou in the banquet hall. Su Yu realized that Lu Suizhou was avoiding her.
"I hate it."
This banquet did not bring much substantial help to the Su family.
Just when Su Yu thought she could not escape the fate of being a supporting actress and was doomed to go bankrupt, Su Hao brought back a shocking and horrifying news.
"Engagement next month?"
"With whom?!"
"Lu Suizhou?!!!"
Su Yu thought she had heard it wrongly and looked at Su Hao in shock, with a look of disbelief on her face.
Su Hao coughed lightly and said unnaturally: "Xiao Yu, you also know that our family's situation is very critical. If we delay any further, the situation will be very unfavorable to us."
Su Yu: "So, what does it have to do with Lu Suizhou?"
Su Hao was silent for a second and said, "The Lu family is willing to cooperate to restart the project, but there is a requirement." He looked up at Su Yu and said, "You have to marry him."
Su Yu: “!!!”
Su Yu was so shocked that she couldn't even speak. She asked dazedly: [Tong'er, system, Tong'er, what's going on? ]
The system didn’t understand either. Could it be that... Lu Suizhou found that he couldn’t win the host’s heart and started to resort to force?
The preparation time for the engagement ceremony was only one month, which was a bit rushed for ordinary people, but for big families like the Su and Lu families, a lot of things could be solved with just one phone call.
This news not only shocked Su Yu, but also shocked a group of wealthy and upper-class celebrities.
No one knows what the Lu family is thinking.
As for the Lu family...no one knows why Lu Suizhou made such a request.
Ye Wanjun glanced at the watch on Lu Suizhou's wrist. There were very light signs of wear, but overall it was well maintained and it was obvious that the wearer took good care of it.
"Is this watch the one that Ayu gave you five years ago?" Ye Wanjun asked casually.
Lu Suizhou raised his wrist slightly, revealing the complete dial. Compared with other sky-high-priced watches, this one was not expensive, but the design was very unique. When worn on Lu Suizhou's hand, it did not look steady, and even had a sense of frivolity.
After a moment of silence, Lu Suizhou nodded: "Yes."
There was a hint of teasing in Ye Wanjun's eyes, but when she thought about how this engagement came about, she couldn't smile anymore.
This time, his son was really a jerk. He took advantage of Su Yu's misfortune and forced her to marry him.
"It's really not a good thing."
Lu Suizhou remained calm despite being evaluated by his mother. He curled his lips slightly and said, "If she doesn't want to, she can just refuse."
The news of the engagement between the Su and Lu families spread like wildfire. At the same time, the Lu family's strong investment in the Su family has greatly alleviated the financial pressure of the Su family. The Su family is expected to smoothly get through this crisis.
All this happened after the two families announced their engagement, and no one would think it was a coincidence.
Some media jokingly called Su Yu the "billion-dollar bride."
On the day of the engagement, Lu’s official Weibo account and many of its subsidiaries all sent congratulations.
A bunch of desserts, milk teas and other high-end desserts that you can’t usually have were delivered to the office for free.
"The big boss is getting engaged, these are all benefits, and in addition, everyone's bonus this month will be doubled!"
"Wow!" "Long live the boss!" "Long live the boss's wife!" Cheers came from the office.
Lin Chuyu looked at the push messages on her phone and felt that the cheers in her ears were noisy and annoying, and the desserts were so sweet that they made her feel sick.
