Chapter 296
Su Yige hadn’t changed much; she still looked very gentle and mild like how she used to be. However, she appeared
slightly more charming and mature than before.
She sat down on a chair opposite Su Ziyue and studied the latter quietly. “Ziyue, why didn’t you come home to visit
after you came back?”
Su Ziyue pursed her lips slightly with a faint smile on her face; an icy look flickered in her eyes.
“Even if I don’t go back, you’d come looking for me, am I right?”
It was Su Yige who had caused her misfortune back then; Su Yige played a part in resulting in the death of her child
too. Yet, Su Yige still had the nerve of sitting here and talking to her like nothing had ever happened.
The more Su Ziyue thought about this, her hatred for Su Yige grew even stronger. She unknowingly tightened her
grip around her arms, which she folded across her chest.
“Ziyue, what are you talking about? After all, we are family.” As she said that, Su Yige held out her fingers and
tucked a lock of hair behind her ear in an attempt to hide her guilt.
In terms of appearance, Su Ziyue still looked the same as she used to despite being thinner. However, she felt the
way Su Ziyue looked at her was somewhat frightening. Perhaps… Su Ziyue knew it was me who did that back then?
Su Yige couldn’t help but shiver when she thought about this.
She knew that the Feng Group from Jingcheng City had acquired Yanyue Media. However, she wasn’t sure about the
exact connection between Su Ziyue and the Feng Family. Besides, she didn’t know exactly why Su Ziyue had
disappeared for two years.
Luckily, Su Ziyue and Qin Muchen were separated. Otherwise, if Su Ziyue had used his influence to get back at her,
there was nothing she could do except to wait for her doom!
“Family?” Su Ziyue repeated the word. Then, she said suggestively, “Since you think that way, perhaps we can have
lunch or dinner together when you’re free. Bring your husband along as well; after all, he’s my cousin-in-law.”
The expression on Su Yige’s face changed when she heard Su Ziyue’s words.
An alarmed look crossed her face. “Zeyang has been very busy lately. I still have something else to do, so I’ll leave
first.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSu Yige became very nervous; she looked like a cat which had its tail stepped on. She rose from her seat and went
out as soon as she finished her sentence.
Glancing at Su Yige’s retreating figure, Su Ziyue took a deep breath before she turned and looked outside through
the French windows. A thought flashed through her mind. How did Su Yige know that I came back to Yunzhou City?
She recalled bumping into Gong Zeyang by chance last time. Did Gong Zeyang have a slip of tongue and told Su
Yige about it? That can’t be right. If Gong Zeyang mentioned me by mistake, Su Yige wouldn’t have put on such a
pretense when she came earlier; she would’ve come to give me a scolding if that was the case.
…
Since Su Yige knew that Su Ziyue was back, this meant the entire Su Family knew about it too.
She went out for lunch at noon. Just as she reached the company entrance, a black car halted right in front.
Initially, Su Ziyue wasn’t aware of the car and was ready to walk past it directly.
However, before she walked past the car, she was stopped by the person who had gotten out of the vehicle.
“Ziyue.”
Su Ziyue stopped in her tracks. She turned around and saw Su Yuanming.
There were many people walking around at the company entrance. Su Ziyue pursed her lips as a look of
impatience flashed through her eyes. Still, she opened her mouth and greeted Su Yuanming. “Uncle Yuanming.”
Su Ziyue noticed some staff—who happened to be walking past them—glancing in their direction carefully.
Su Yuanming nodded in satisfaction. He turned around and opened the car door at the back.
Su Ziyue narrowed her eyes. She didn’t expect the news of her return to alert Su Youcheng too.
The expression on Su Ziyue’s face appeared very cold and distant. “Grandpa.”
Apparently, Su Youcheng wasn’t very pleased with Su Ziyue’s cold and impassive greeting.
He frowned. “Let’s find a place to have lunch first.”
…
The party went to a nearby restaurant for lunch.
“Director Su!”
She bumped into several company staff as soon as she entered the restaurant.
Su Ziyue replied with a smile on her face, “Are you guys having lunch here?”
Su Youcheng felt even more displeased when he noticed Su Ziyue talking to her staff with a grin on her face.
He thought Su Ziyue was being disrespectful to him even though he was her grandfather. However, he had simply
forgotten how he used to treat Su Ziyue back then.
The party was led by a waiter into a suite.
After sitting down, Su Ziyue passed the menu to Su Youcheng. “Grandpa, please place your order.”
Su Youcheng took the menu and started placing orders without feeling embarrassed at all.
He didn’t even reject my offer. He really considers himself as an elder whom everyone must respect.
Su Ziyue stared at them coldly. Right after they had finished ordering, Su Yuanming pretended to be apologetic and
said, “Ziyue, we don’t know what kind of dishes you like, so we ordered a variety of dishes instead. I suppose you’ll
be fine with any dishes, right?”
A faint smile crossed Su Ziyue’s face. “Just order whatever you guys like.”
They were just as selfish as they used to be.
Su Ziyue knew that Su Yuanming and Su Youcheng didn’t meet her in person today just to have lunch with her;
things were not as simple as that. They couldn’t possibly just want to visit her on purpose after not seeing her for
two years either.
As she expected, Su Youcheng, who had been silent since the beginning, finally said something when the dishes
were served.
“Ziyue, you are the executive director of Yanyue Media now, aren’t you? I heard that it was the President of Feng
Group who made the announcement himself and sent you here from the headquarters over there.”
Indeed, older people were more experienced when it came to scheming and extracting information. Su Youcheng
went straight to the point as soon as he opened his mouth. There was a slight hint of an elderly yet autocratic tone
in his voice—he sounded almost like he was questioning Su Ziyue.
The reason why he had asked such a question was to find out about the relationship between Su Ziyue and Feng
Xingyan.
However, Su Ziyue thought of something else instead. The smile on her face remained unchanged as she said,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Grandpa, do you still remember my mother?”
Su Youcheng frowned. Evidently, he was very unhappy because Su Ziyue had not replied to his question and even
changed the subject.
Su Ziyue couldn’t care less about what he thought. She said bluntly, “Grandpa, you were not very pleased with my
mother as your daughter-in-law, weren’t you? Because of my mother, you weren’t very close to me, so that’s why
my father moved out of the Su Family after he got married.”
Su Youcheng raised his voice. He had a funny expression on his face. “This happened a long time ago. Why are you
bringing it up now?”
Su Ziyue was puzzled by the expression on Su Youcheng’s face; she thought something was off about his reaction.
However, she didn’t show it on her face.
The reason she said this was to find out what Su Youcheng thought of her mother.
hen she was younger, she could feel that something was off even though her father had never said anything about
it. What was more, she seldom met Su Youcheng back in the day.
The Feng Family wasn’t a small and insignificant family. If her mother had married into the Su Family as the wealthy
daughter of the Feng Family, Su Youcheng would’ve been very pleased to have her as his daughter-in-law.
“Then, I’ll stop talking about my mother. Let’s go back to your question just now.” After a pause, Su Ziyue
continued, “Grandpa, you’ve certainly done a lot of homework just to come over and meet me personally.”
Su Youcheng was very furious when he heard that. “You still have the nerve to say that? You disappeared without a
trace for two years, but you didn’t even come back to the Su Family when you returned, allowing others to make
nonsense speculations about your disappearance and turn yourself into their laughing stock!”
“Grandpa, does that mean you’ve come here today with Uncle Yuanming to personally invite me back to the Su
Family?” She knew very well that this was definitely not the real reason why Su Youcheng and Su Yuanming came to
find her today.
“Is this the attitude you should have when you’re talking to me?”
A faint smile crossed Su Ziyue’s face. “Grandpa, you’re getting old and probably can’t remember well, but I can still
remember very clearly—especially everything that happened in the past.”
