Gong Chengjue looked at her without saying a word.
Su Ziqing's eyes held a pleading look, "I can handle it."
Yes, he believed she could handle it; just look at how afraid the Su family was of her now.
She didn't want him to confront the disgusting nature of the Su family, just as he had previously not wanted her to confront the various filth and corruption within the Gong family.
He hummed in agreement. "Then I'll go for a walk. Call me if you need anything."
"Mmm," Su Ziqing hummed in response.
Gong Chengjue left one of his bodyguards behind to prevent anyone in the house from going crazy and hurting Su Leqing.
Although if a real fight were to break out, the remaining members of the Su family would pose no threat to Su Ziqing whatsoever.
Luo Jinhan accompanied Gong Chengjue for a walk outside. The area around the Su family's old residence was very open, with few other houses. It had rained last night, so the air was fresh, and there was still thick fog on the distant mountains. The scenery looked quite nice.
After Gong Chengjue left, Su Ziqing went directly to the room where Old Madam Su lived.
"Su..." Someone called out a word, and Su Ziqing's cold gaze swept over the Su family members. No one dared to utter another word.
Even people like Su Tianming and Su Tianhao have been sent to prison, so what can they do?
Having confirmed that Madam Su had passed away, Su Ziqing walked out of the room and said calmly, "She has been sent to the funeral home for cremation, and the burial will be tomorrow. The funeral... is canceled."
She'll repay them for how they treated Grandpa back then!
"What?" Su Tianming's wife couldn't help but ask when she heard that Su Ziqing had made arrangements so quickly. "Such an important matter as a burial, shouldn't we consult the almanac?"
"The almanac says tomorrow is an auspicious day for burial!" Su Ziqing sat down.
The nanny brought her a cup of tea.
From a pampered granddaughter who didn't have to worry about anything, to the head of the family now, God knows what she's been through.
"But……"
"Auntie, are you sure you have a problem with this?" Su Ziqing asked the person who spoke.
Su Tianming's wife immediately shut up, meeting Su Ziqing's warning gaze as if to say, "If you keep talking, you'll be the next one to suffer!"
Who is Su Tianming? When the old man was alive, he let Su Tianming manage things. But what happened to such a shrewd man who was over fifty?
Su Tianhao is already in his fifties, and what happened?
Everyone thought Su Ziqing was just a little girl and posed no threat, but in the end, she sent the two sons of the Su family to prison.
People are very realistic. Her husband is in prison, but she still has children and they still have shares. She can continue her carefree life as a wealthy family. As long as they behave themselves and receive their dividends every year, her life can remain the same, right?
“I have no objection, Ziqing. Since you’ve already had someone check the almanac, then, then let’s have the burial tomorrow.” Su Tianming’s wife immediately compromised.
Su Tianhao's wife sat there. Today was the day Su Tianhao was sentenced. When she visited Su Tianhao before, he had warned her not to provoke Su Ziqing again.
Let the grudges of the previous generation end in his generation.
Even after six years, he's still rich! Even if we don't say it out loud, just consider those six years in jail—being rich can make things easier in prison.
Su Tianhao was afraid that his wife would overestimate herself and make a scene with Su Ziqing, and in the end, she would lose everything and get herself into trouble.
Su Ziqing won't hold back; she's capable of doing it.
"Second Aunt, what do you think?" Su Ziqing asked Su Tianhao's wife.
Su Tianhao's wife raised her eyes, which were as still as water, but her hands clenched into fists involuntarily. "Aren't you the one in charge of this house now? Whatever you say goes."
Su Ziqing glanced at her fist and said, "Oh, then let's do it this way."
Before she could finish speaking, the nanny came over and said that the hearse had arrived.
So fast?
All eyes turned to Su Ziqing once again. Did she call the funeral home to pick her up as soon as she received the news?
This scene is all too familiar... back then, the old man...
Su Ziqing stood up and said to the nanny, "Let's put the old lady's body in the car."
"Su Ziqing." Su Xiaoman, whom I had just seen this morning, had only just arrived and brushed past the people from the funeral home. "What are you doing?"
"Put down my grandmother's body!" Su Xiaoman shouted, trying to stop them.
However, no one listened to Su Ziqing.
The Su family, consisting of nearly ten people, all pretended to be deaf and dumb.
Su Xiaoman's obstruction was not because she had a deep affection for the old lady Su, but rather to demonstrate her newfound status.
But to her surprise, not a single member of her family uttered a word, let alone sided with her.
"You just watched Grandma's body get carried away like that? Did the police come? Are you sure Grandma committed suicide?" She looked sarcastically in Su Ziqing's direction. "Could it be that someone couldn't resist and killed her?"
Look, they used to be able to drink tea and discuss cooperation, but now they're all too familiar with turning their backs on each other.
“The police have come; the old lady did indeed die by suicide,” said Su Xiaoman’s mother.
She gestured to Su Xiaoman with her eyes to stop nitpicking at this moment.
Su Xiaoman pretended not to see it and said, "Who sends someone to the funeral home right after they die!"
Su Ziqing retorted, "Wasn't this how Grandpa was treated back then?"
"Some things are pointless to talk about openly," Su Ziqing said with a cold laugh, looking at them. "When Grandpa passed away, did you try to stop it?"
No! Not only did they not stop it, but they also remained silent, just like today!
Su Ziqing had the funeral home staff remove the body of Old Madam Su.
Su Xiaoman scoffed, "Su Ziqing, do you think you're in charge of the Su family now?"
"Obviously, we've arrived." Su Ziqing was in a bad mood and didn't want to stay any longer, so she walked outside.
Su Xiaoman stepped forward to block their path, saying, "Don't forget, when it comes to equity, you don't have much more than us."
"Oh? You mean you want me to buy your shares too?" Su Ziqing smiled. "Sorry, I'm probably more interested in how to go bankrupt."
"Xiaoman!!" Su Xiaoman's mother spoke up, stopping Su Xiaoman from verbally provoking her again.
The Su family may still appear to be one family now, but they stopped being one family long ago after Old Master Su's accident.
Su Zi didn't care what they thought, and glanced at everyone present, saying, "You all know very well why Grandpa was buried in such a hurry."
"Ziqing..."
"However, these grudges have ended today. Grandpa divided the family property equally among everyone before he passed away. I will not go against Grandpa's arrangements, but!"
Su Ziqing paused and looked at everyone, "If you have other ideas, I don't mind making you go bankrupt."
After saying that, she left the Su family home.
"You dare to bankrupt us? What a big mouth you have! If we go bankrupt, how much money do you think you'll have left? Would you do something that harms others without benefiting yourself?" Su Xiaoman shouted at Su Ziqing's retreating figure.
