"Alright, take them away!"
"Why! Who are you?!" Xiao Tong wasn't stupid. Hearing that even his uncle didn't recognize him, something serious must have happened.
"Who am I? Didn't you say I'm the vice president of Kyoto University?"
"Impossible, absolutely not, Principal Su, I know I was wrong, please give me a chance, I will not try to take advantage of Qingmeng again."
"You're the kind of person who never learns from mistakes. How did your teachers educate you when you were little?"
"I know I was wrong."
"Xiao Tong, do you think it's too late now?"
"Teacher Su, I will change in the future."
"Alright, you're not participating in this competition anymore. Your graduation awards and honors are canceled this year. Can you accept this kind of punishment?"
"Okay, Principal Su, I'll leave now. I know I was wrong."
Xiao Tong left without looking back, showing no sign of missing him.
"Sister Zhilan, I didn't expect you to let him off the hook."
"That's only because he's been very cooperative in admitting his mistake and is a student at Kyoto University. We're letting him off the hook this time and giving him a chance. But if he dares to try anything with you again, don't blame me for being ruthless."
"Yes, thank you, Sister Zhilan."
"Alright, no need for thanks. My student was harassed, so of course I have to defend you. Manager Wu, let's go eat."
"Okay, Mr. Su, this way please, I'll take you to the Zijin Hall."
Being driven out of the Shanghai Eye is unprecedented for the two, who were pushed out by bodyguards in black.
"Damn it! Just who is that woman Su Zhilan?!"
"Boss, I think you should call your uncle again and ask him."
Xiao Tong had just taken out his phone and hadn't even called his uncle when his father called.
"Dad, is something the matter?"
"Upon a joint proposal by the board of directors, you are hereby removed from your position as deputy manager of the Xiao Group."
Upon hearing this news, Xiao Tong's face turned pale instantly.
If he were to be dismissed from his post, given the competitiveness of a large family, he would be rendered useless and would never be able to take charge of the Xiao family again.
It might even be difficult for them to stay in the Xiao family.
"Dad, why?"
"Why? Do you know who you've offended? Does she need to embezzle? Your mouth, oh dear."
"Dad, tell me, who exactly is Principal Su? I want to die knowing the truth!"
"You should know that her surname is Su. In Kyoto, which family can truly be called Su?"
"Could it be... the Su family?"
"Yes, so do you know who you've messed with? She's Su Muqing's younger sister, the second of the four Su sisters."
"How is that possible! How come I've never known?"
"The four Su sisters are all exceptional women. They have shone brightly in their respective fields and have never relied on their Su family background."
"Therefore, they are all very low-key, especially Su Zhilan. She is at Kyoto University, and no one knows that she is from the Su family."
"Okay, after graduation, you can stay at home."
"Dad, I've already apologized to Principal Su, and she's forgiven me. Please give me another chance."
"Just because Su Zhilan forgave you doesn't mean the Su family forgave you. You get back here right now, and we'll go to the Su family to apologize in person tomorrow."
"Dad, is there really no way to change this?"
“No, Xiaotong, I had no choice but to do this. Although you are very outstanding, this is how big families are. I have to think about the interests of the family and can’t let anyone find a handle against me. The elders have already expressed strong dissatisfaction with what you did this time, and even have some opinions about me.”
"Dad, I understand, I'll be right back."
"Hmm, I just thought about it. After this is over, you should go to Nanling. There's a branch office there that needs someone to manage it."
"Dad, you want me to go to Nanling?"
Xiao Tong knew that this was like being exiled in ancient times; once he arrived in Nanling, he would probably never be able to leave the core area of the Xiao family again.
"Yes, they're short of a manager there. Don't worry, as long as you perform well there, I'll apply to have you transferred back."
"Okay, I understand, Dad. I'll go."
"Hey, eldest brother, how did it go? What did your father say?"
"Get out! You idiot, it was all your bad idea! Don't follow me anymore!"
After saying that, Xiao Tong took a taxi to the airport. What he needed to do now was to return to Kyoto immediately.
The Zijing Hall is completely different from the small room we just left; it exudes an air of extravagance and decadence, and it offers the best vantage point for viewing the night view of Shanghai.
Standing here and looking down, there's a desire for power.
"Mengmeng, what do you want to eat? Let's order again."
"Yes, Mr. Su, it's not easy for you to come all this way. This is our exclusive menu for Zijin members. You can order the dishes on this menu. I just asked the boss, but he's on a business trip and can't make it back."
"It's okay, if they can't come back, they can't come back. We just came here to eat."
"Our boss is paying for tonight's bill as an apology. Of course, he said it's not to look down on you, it's just his way of showing his appreciation."
Upon hearing this, Su Zhilan closed the menu.
"Okay, this is my first time here, so I don't know what's good to eat. You can arrange it. It doesn't need to be too much, just enough to eat."
"Mr. Su, do you have any dietary restrictions?"
"No, neither of us has any. You can decide what to wear."
"Okay, Mr. Su, then I won't bother you any longer."
"This problem is finally solved."
"I already said, of course we should resolve this head-on. The worst thing is to resolve it behind closed doors. The last time you were kidnapped, wasn't that because it wasn't resolved in one go?"
"Yes, I understand, Sister Zhilan, I'm sorry."
"No need to apologize. I'm not blaming you; I'm just teaching you how to handle things."
"Alright, let's not think about these unhappy things anymore, let's enjoy this place."
In the following two or three days, new reserve students arrived in Shanghai, and after Xiao Tong and Zhao Yangtian left, the atmosphere in the entire participating team became much more relaxed.
"Professor Huang."
"Hey, sit down, don't be shy, the food at this hotel is pretty good." In the hotel restaurant, Professor Huang sat down opposite Liu Qingmeng with a tray in his hand.
"Yes, Professor Huang, it's very good."
"Xiao Liu, do you know what Xiao Tong did wrong? He was disqualified from being nominated for awards and honors, and he was forced to withdraw from the competition. I heard he left without even packing his luggage at the hotel."
"Professor Huang, didn't Professor Su tell you? I can't say anything about this either."
"So you know what happened, right? You live with Principal Su, so you should know. That's not surprising."
