Chapter 149: Su Yurou’s Worries
When Ah Si saw people gathering around Su Wan, he switched to a professional smile and stood in front of her.
“Thank you everyone for being so passionate. Shall we talk about it next time?”
As Ah Si said this, he brought Su Wan out of the meeting room and the people followed her.
“Ms. Su, I heard that Di Chen Group is looking for a garment company to collaborate with. What do you think of our company?”
“Ms. Su, besides considering Beitong as the main filming location of Nirvana of Phoenix, do you need another sponsor?”
As Su Wan walked, she received many questions. Su Wan frowned and was about to say she didn’t know anything but did not expect Ah Si to open his mouth first.
“Ms. Su is not very clear about these matters. If you wish to know about Di Chen Group’s recent direction, you may refer to our official website and Weibo.”
Then, Ah Si motioned for Su Wan to walk quickly with a wave of his hand.
Su Yurou, who was standing outside the meeting room, saw how Su Wan was surrounded with people. Her eyes were vicious.
This b*tch! Wasn’t she using the support of others to humiliate her?
However, beyond Su Yurou’s expectation, Su Wan looked straight as she walked past Su Yurou and her eyes did not linger on Su Yurou, not even for a moment.
Su Yurou stood in a trance where she was. The feeling of being ignored humiliated her greatly!
Su Yurou bit her lips and she looked gloomy. One day, she would make Su Wan pay the price!
***
After exiting Sheng Yuan Group’s headquarters, Su Wan got as quickly as she could into the Volkswagen with Ah Si. Winding down the car window, she could still see the shareholders who were chasing after her from afar.
It was with great difficulty that she finally got out of their encirclement. Su Wan massaged her brows and let out a long sigh.
When Ah Si was turning the steering wheel, he saw Su Wan’s look, as if she had just escaped from death, and he couldn’t help teasing her. “The last time Young Master was surrounded by people, he was much calmer than you, Young Madam.”
“They are so passionate because of your young master.”
If not for their intention to collaborate with Di Chen Group and the coincidence that she was Jiang Xuecheng’s wife, those shareholders would not have pursued relentlessly!
As she spoke, she paused to look at Ah Si. She gave him a smile of gratitude. “Ah Si, thank you for your help today.”
Upon hearing this, Ah Si touched the back of his head and with a straightforward look, said, “Young Madam, you don’t have to thank me. This is what Young Master has ordered me to do.”
“Then, thank you for being so responsible.”
Su Wan pursed her lips and Jiang Xuecheng’s face immediately appeared in her mind. That man looked cold but in fact, he was more thoughtful than anyone else.
Just then, the phone in Su Wan’s handbag rang.
Su Wan, who missed Jiang Xuecheng, heard the sound of vibration and her eyes lit up. She thought that her husband had called her.
She happily opened her handbag and saw the number on the phone display. Her eyes instantly became dull.
It was her grandfather, Su Heng, who had called.
Su Wan saw the name on the display and she declined the call without hesitation. She knew that her grandfather had called her to lecture her for the sake of her uncle’s family.
No matter how she steeled herself, she couldn’t treat Su Heng the way she treated her uncle’s family because he was her grandfather who had loved her for so long.
Hence, to Su Wan, it was better to refuse to answer his call than to get tired of his reprimands. At least she could have peace of mind.
After ending the call, Su Wan looked down. She unlocked her phone and saw that she had five to six missed calls.
Just now, when she was in the meeting room, her mobile phone was on silent mode so she had not heard any of the calls.
Giving a rough estimate of time, her grandfather’s first call to her was about the time Su Yurou was chased out of the meeting room.
Huh, that woman who was good at feigning pity must have told her grandfather tales.
Su Wan suddenly felt desolated. She half leaned against the car seat and gently closed her eyes.
Ah Si who was driving saw Su Wan slumping on the car seat, looking drained. He was stupefied. “Young Madam, are you alright?”
“I’m fine, you may continue driving.”
Su Wan massaged her temples and gave out a soothing smile.
Recalling his young master’s order, Ah Si’s look became serious.
“Young Madam, since you’re not feeling well, I’ll send you back to Fontainebleau first. Young Master said you don’t have to go back to the office today.”
Su Wan couldn’t help feeling stunned. “But I have not tidied the information on Beitong’s celebration banquet…”
Ah Si shook his head and replied, “Young Master said that you’ve been busy these few days and so, he’s given you a half day off. He asked you to rest. Moreover, you don’t have to worry about the Beitong celebration banquet, as other employees will manage that.”
Su Wan frowned slightly and saw that Ah Si had change the route after a turning. She moved her lips slightly and finally agreed. “Alright then.”
Arriving at Fontainebleau, Ah Si waved his hand when he saw Su Wan entering the residential zone. “Goodbye, Young Madam!”
Su Wan nodded smilingly and walked toward her house. Once she entered the hall, she hung her handbag beside the entrance, changed into her house slippers, and lay down on the couch.
The shareholders’ meeting was not too long this morning but it had used up too much of her energy.
Su Wan took a woolen blanket and gradually closed her eyes while lying on the couch. She dreamt of her carefree childhood.
Her father’s smiling face was still elegant and gentle and her mother was holding her little hand, bringing her out to buy delicious snacks. At that time, Su Wan loved sweet food and her mother had advised her not to eat too much…
Compared to Su Wan, who was in her sweet dream, Su Yurou, who was calling Gu Zihang on the other hand, was a lot more miserable.
Su Yurou held onto her phone tightly and her fingers were all turning pale.
“Zihang, what shoud I do? Wan stripped me off my post. How can I keep a foothold in Sheng Yuan in the future? If this news spreads, I’ll be too embarrassed to go out and meet people!”
Gu Zihang consoled her, saying, “This is not a big deal. Don’t worry. I’ll suppress the media and no one will disseminate this news.”
“Or perhaps I could work for your company, Zihang?”
Su Yurou softened her voice and pleaded. In her voice was a sense of aspiration.
Her beautiful eyes lit up as she thought about how she would definitely have many attendants crowding round her too if she could enter Gu Group as the young madam.
However, Gu Zihang rejected her request without mercy.
“Yurou, since you’re pregnant and this is a critical period, why don’t you stay home to rest and be a full-time wife? Haven’t you always wished to get along well with my mother? This is a good opportunity…”
Su Yurou’s expression changed drastically after hearing clearly what Gu Zihang said.
