Madam Su sighed, her brows etched with weariness and disappointment. "This child, truly... can't handle anything. She used to be pampered at home, thinking everyone should revolve around her. Now, when faced with a storm, she just hides away. How could the daughter of our Su family be so hopeless!"
So spoiled!
She went straight upstairs and knocked on Su Yao's door: "Su Yao, open the door! Mom has something to tell you."
There was no movement inside.
Madam Su raised her voice: "You won't open the door, right? Fine, just keep hiding in there like a coward and see who can save you! Fu Chen is in a state of panic right now. Didn't you watch the Ning Group's press conference? What kind of aura is Ning Nanxue showing? Jiang Tingchen from Huayun is standing right next to her!"
"If you keep hiding like this, when the Fu family is completely finished and Fu Chen has nothing, I'll see what you'll do!"
There was a muffled sound in the room, as if something was hit.
Madam Su continued, "Do you think that if you hide, the problem will be solved? Which of the Fu family's messes has nothing to do with you? Do you think Ning Nanxue will let you go so easily? If you don't come out and find a solution, the Su family will be dragged down by you! I still have to explain to your father."
"If you want to watch the Su family being laughed at by the entire business community because of this trivial matter between you and Fu Chen, then just keep hiding! No one will pity you!"
After a while, the door clicked and opened a crack.
Su Yao showed a haggard face, her eyes were red and swollen, and her hair was messy: "Mom..." Her voice was hoarse and she was crying.
Mrs. Su looked at her daughter's distraught look, and the anger she had been holding in her heart somehow disappeared, leaving only weariness.
She raised her hand, wanting to comfort him, but her hand hung in the air and fell again, finally turning into a sigh.
"Finally showing up? I thought you were going to cultivate in there, and not care about worldly things."
Su Yao threw herself into her mother's arms, and her tears and snot were rubbed all over Mrs. Su's exquisite clothes without any hesitation. "Mom! I regret it! I regret it so much that my intestines are turning green!"
Madam Su paused for a moment, then patted her daughter's back, her voice softening. "Regret it? Do you regret thinking about Jiang Tingchen again, or do you regret getting involved in the Fu family's mess?"
She thought to herself, this child finally figured it out and knew which path was blocked.
Unexpectedly, Su Yao struggled out of her arms, her eyes red and swollen from crying staring at one direction, her eyes seemed to be filled with poison.
"I regret not killing that little bitch Ning Nanxue right away! Who the hell is she? How could I let her get to where she is today? It's all my fault. I'm too soft-hearted! If I had ruined her reputation earlier, she wouldn't have had the chance to pester Tingchen!"
When Mrs. Su heard this, she felt a chill in her heart.
She pushed Su Yao away, pointed at her daughter's nose, her hands trembling: "You, you child! What are you thinking about all day long! Fighting and killing, is that what you should think about? Jiang Tingchen, Jiang Tingchen! What kind of ecstasy did he give you? "
"Look at what a horrible state you've become. For him, you don't even go home or eat! You've completely ruined the reputation of the Su family!"
Su Yao was pushed and swayed for a moment, then rushed over and hugged Madam Su's legs, crying and wailing: "Mom, help me! You must help me! I can't just accept it like this, I can't stand this! Who is Ning Nanxue? She stole Tingchen, what else do you want? "
"Mom, you have the most ideas. Please help me think of a way to get Tingchen back and make sure that vixen Ning Nanxue gets nothing! Please, Mom!"
"What can I do?" Madam Su's temples throbbed. "What are the Jiang family's intentions? Haven't you seen clearly yet? Who is behind Ning Nanxue now? Huayun Group!"
"But I just won't accept it!" Su Yao sobbed and sobbed, "Mom, as long as I can make Ning Nanxue feel bad, I'll do anything! Just help me this time, the last time, okay?"
Mrs. Su looked at her daughter's tearful face, and the toughness in her heart disappeared again.
They say children are a debt, and that's absolutely true. She waved her hand weakly, "Alright, alright, wipe your tears. I'll find time to go to the Jiang family's old house, but Mom, let me tell you this: if the Jiang family is really determined to protect Ning Nanxue, you're not allowed to make trouble anymore. Stay home honestly, do you hear me?"
When Su Yao heard this, her eyes lit up and she nodded constantly: "Mom, you are so nice! I knew you wouldn't really ignore me!"
Madam Su glanced at her sideways, but ignored her. She turned and instructed the servant, "Go, get the Hetian jade Guanyin statue from my storeroom and put it in a nice brocade box. Also, prepare some fresh fruit and send it over."
She knew in her heart that this trip to the Jiang family would most likely be in vain. But what else could she do?
Raising a daughter like this means you will worry about her all your life.
The Jiang family's old house.
The housekeeper led Madam Su to the side hall and respectfully served her tea: "Madam Su, please sit down for a moment. The old man will be here soon."
Mrs. Su nodded gracefully, but her eyes swept across the hall inconspicuously.
This side hall is elegantly decorated, with a Huanghuali armchair and a set of official kiln tea sets on the table. There is still a faint aroma of top-grade Dahongpao in the air.
She noticed that on the coffee table, in addition to the new tea that had just been served to her, there were two celadon teacups with residual tea in the cups, and the edges were still warm.
It seems that there were guests here before she came.
Moreover, judging by the style and placement of the teacup, it's likely not an ordinary guest.
While she was thinking, Old Master Jiang came out from the inner hall, supported by someone. He looked energetic and intimidating without even getting angry.
"Uncle Jiang," Mrs. Su immediately stood up, a proper smile on her face, "It's been a while since we last met, and you seem to be looking better and better."
"Madam Su is here," Old Master Jiang sat down in the main seat opposite her and raised his hand to signal, "Please sit down. Butler, serve the tea."
"yes."
Madam Su sat down as she was told, her gaze lingering on the two celadon teacups. She spoke casually, "Look at me, Master, I'm afraid you just had a guest here. Did I come at a bad time and disturb you?"
Old Master Jiang picked up the freshly brewed tea and blew away the foam slowly without raising his eyelids. "Well, Tingchen and Nanxue just left. It's nothing important, they just came to chat with me, an old man."
Mrs. Su's heart sank suddenly.
Jiang Tingchen and Ning Nanxue? They had indeed arrived in front of Old Master Jiang!
And from the tone, it can be seen that Mr. Jiang actually calls Ning Nanxue "Nanxue girl", which reveals a sense of closeness.
The smile on her face remained unchanged, but her heart was already cold.
