"Didn't you see what happened to the Ou family?" Su Tianhao sighed. "I'm just a wise man who knows when to yield."
"Is it a case of 'a wise man submits to circumstances,' or have you always harbored ambitions?" Su Tianming came downstairs with a cold face and looked at Su Tianhao.
Previously, Su Tianhao had to be mindful of his mood, but Su Ziqing's words were a revelation to Su Tianhao. Yes, it seems that he has a better chance of winning now.
"Then, brother, dare you say you don't intend to take my share?" Su Tianhao chuckled.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Su Tianming was furious and slammed his fist on the table.
"Don't you know whether I'm lying or not? Do you really think I'm stupid?" Su Tianhao retorted.
"Enough!" Old Madam Su was panting with anger. She knew Su Ziqing was a jinx; nothing good ever came of her coming back.
Su Tianhao turned to Old Madam Su and said, "Mom, I'm your son too. Why do you only favor my older brother?"
"When have I ever shown favoritism towards Tianming?"
"I'm also in my forties. Over the years, which important project in the company wasn't handed over to my older brother? Do you know what people in City A think of him? My older brother is a tiger father like his son, and me? I'm a hopeless case."
Su Tianhao chuckled, "I graduated from a prestigious university too."
"That's your own fault for being so useless, why blame me?" Su Tianming shouted angrily.
"Am I not good enough? Or are you afraid I'll be too good for you, big brother?" Su Tianhao said sarcastically.
"You two, that's enough, stop..." Before she could finish her sentence, Old Madam Su fainted.
…………………
Su Ziqing took the pill box given to her by Secretary Tian to Qin Yuheng's clinic.
My hands were clenched tightly, both afraid of hearing the news I imagined and afraid of hearing the news that was actually just my imagination.
"Miss Su." Qin Yuheng looked at Su Ziqing, who was sitting there hesitating, wondering what she was struggling with.
Su Ziqing twitched the corner of her mouth. "Dr. Qin, if this medicine... was indeed switched, or even poisoned, can they be brought to justice?"
“Theoretically, it is possible.” Qin Yuheng looked at her.
He held out his hand, gesturing for her to hand him the medicine so he could take it to neutralize its properties.
"Yes, theoretically it's possible..." But in practice, it's probably difficult, right?
She handed him the medicine.
Qin Yuheng took the pill, looked at it, and indeed couldn't discern anything with the naked eye. He then smelled it and frowned slightly.
"Come with me."
Su Ziqing nodded.
The test results came out quickly. Qin Yuheng's clients were mostly wealthy and influential people. It has been said since ancient times that wealthy families are as deep as the sea, and as a doctor, he had seen a lot of different aspects of life.
But there are very few families like the Su family that have achieved this.
"No poison was added," Qin Yuheng stated the test results.
Su Ziqing looked at him, "No poison?"
“But it’s worse than poisoning.” Qin Yuheng handed the pill box back to her. “Most of the ingredients in the medicine are what the patient needs, but two of them are added that counteract the condition.”
"Incompatible?" Su Ziqing's hands clenched unconsciously. What "incompatible" meant was obvious without needing to be said.
"The medication, originally intended to slow and suppress the illness, has instead worsened it," Qin Yuheng said seriously, looking at her. "Moreover, the dosage has been drastically increased. It looks like they're trying to make the old man..."
Qin Yuheng did not say what he wanted to say next.
Su Ziqing said it for him: "His condition deteriorated rapidly, and he died suddenly."
Qin Yuheng nodded.
The Su family is too ruthless.
Su Ziqing chuckled twice, then took a step back, unable to bear the blow.
"And to avoid any further complications, that's why they were in such a hurry to cremate and bury Grandpa..." so that there would be no way to verify anything after the death.
Everything had been anticipated, but when Su Ziqing actually found out the result, she felt extremely ironic.
Wife, son, loved ones...
Just because the old man wanted to make a will, they went to such extremes!
Su Ziqing took a deep breath to calm herself down. There was no way to prove anything, and they could deny the existence of the bottle of medicine in her hand, or even say that she had deliberately created it...
"What was the result?" Gong Chengjue rushed over as soon as he finished his work, and seeing Su Ziqing's distraught appearance, he knew it wasn't a good outcome.
Su Ziqing looked at him, wanting to laugh and cry at the same time, "If only I had met you sooner..."
If she had met him sooner, even just one more day, wouldn't things have turned out differently? Would she have been able to save her grandfather and let him see her wedding day?
"I must have been blind." During the few days after returning to China, I didn't even notice anything unusual about my grandfather.
She only thought that her grandfather wanted her to get engaged as soon as possible, fearing that she would not be able to find a partner because of her broken palm, but she never thought that her grandfather might have other reasons for doing so.
Gong Chengjue stepped forward and pulled her into his arms. "It's not your fault."
"No, it's all my fault. I was blind. I didn't notice Grandpa's illness. If you hadn't reminded me, I wouldn't have suspected anything at all," Su Ziqing said, blaming herself.
Qin Yuheng didn't know what to say. He opened his mouth, then closed it again, and quietly left, leaving Gong Chengjue to comfort Su Ziqing.
To be honest, even if he encountered something like this, things probably wouldn't be much better for him.
"I just want my grandfather to come back to life. I don't care about the inheritance." She never thought about how much property her grandfather would give her.
With the Su family's wealth, even a small amount would be enough for her to live comfortably, not to mention that she can earn money to support herself.
Gong Chengjue patted her shoulder and whispered, "That's what you think, but being born into a wealthy family means your thinking is inherently naive."
Su Ziqing stopped talking and leaned on his shoulder, feeling completely drained.
Yes, who would believe what she's thinking?
It was as if the Su family believed that her broken palm would bring bad luck to her relatives.
It's like the Su family saw that the old man doted on her, and they took her ambition to fight for the family fortune seriously.
It's as if the Su family is convinced that the old man only favors her...
If you want to find fault, you can always find a pretext.
She knew it all along, didn't she?
"Let's go back." She sniffed, calming herself down.
Gong Chengjue was somewhat surprised to see her recover so quickly; she was much stronger than he had imagined.
"Ziqing..."
"I'm just sad, but the outcome was already expected." She forced a bitter smile, "It's just that this result makes me even more determined to make them pay a heavy price."
Su Tianming wants to be the chairman? Dream on!
Didn't he want most of the Su family's assets? She made him lose it all!
The old lady wanted her sons to be harmonious and loving brothers? She'll make them turn against each other!
Su Xiaoman wants to marry Ou Shang? Ha.
Whatever they want, she will not only prevent them from getting it, but also make them lose what they have.
She is not afraid to pay any price for this.
