Chapter 2233: It Is Time to Leave
Jiang Mobai said excitedly, "I want to go on a proper date with you!"
Once his voice fell, there was a long silence on the other end of the phone.
Slowly, Jiang Mobai also sensed that something was wrong.
"Uh, that... the date I mentioned is different from the kind you're thinking of, it's just for the two of us to relax a bit!"
After hearing this explanation, Su Kexuan spoke again: "Then your description was incorrect."
"Yes, yes, it's my fault. Then... can you agree?"
Su Kexuan fell silent again.
However, her silence this time did not last long, and she soon gave an answer: "That depends on how you plan to relax."
"The weather has been nice lately, shall we go for a picnic?"
A picnic?
This idea was something Su Kexuan hadn't thought of.
If one could find a place with nice scenery, spread out a picnic mat, bring along favorite food, and then sit under the sunshine and daydream...
It would feel quite nice.
Su Kexuan ended her fantasy and responded briefly: "Okay."
"That's great! Then how about this weekend?"
"I have plans this weekend; let's see what the weather is like next week."
"Alright, alright, I'll listen to you!"
That Su Kexuan could agree made Jiang Mobai especially pleasantly surprised.
A bright smile could not help but hang on his face.
But in a place where Jiang Mobai could not see, Su Kexuan wore a melancholy expression.
She was very gratified by Jiang Mobai's current state.
He was willing to interact with people, which meant...
The mission was over, and it was time for Su Kexuan to leave.
After this picnic, she would pack up her things.
Jiang Mobai did not know Su Kexuan's thoughts.
He still suggested excitedly: "Then I'll prepare the things needed for the weekend picnic, you just need to dress up beautifully."
"You even have requirements for what to wear?"
"Yeah, that way the photos will look better! I'll take them for you then, I guarantee I'll make you look especially artistic!"
Jiang Mobai rubbed his hands in anticipation.
After hearing this, Su Kexuan smiled faintly: "Then I look forward to your masterpiece."
Having said that, Su Kexuan hung up the phone.
Then the smile faded bit by bit.
In the end, only dejection remained.
But Su Kexuan did not let herself stay in a depressed atmosphere.
She shook her head, shaking off those wild thoughts.
Afterward, she started the car and headed to the suburban factory.
In the factory, Sui Xin's father was looking at the report the factory manager had given him.
After the industrial upgrade, the factory's efficiency had been climbing steadily.
The numbers on the report made Sui Xin's father unable to keep his mouth from stretching into a grin.
"Boss, Miss Su is here."
Hearing this, Sui Xin's father immediately put the report into a drawer.
Then he waved his hand and said, "Let her in."
In a short while, Su Kexuan walked into the office with a smile.
These two were smiling more amiably than the other.
But in their hearts, each was calculating their own little schemes.
After chatting briefly, Su Kexuan steered the topic to Song Yue: "I haven't seen your wife lately."
"Her? She's at the hotel taking care of the child."
"Isn't it inconvenient to keep living in a hotel? Why not arrange a permanent residence for the mother and child? If there's a need, I can help."
Sui Xin's father was desperate for Song Yue to leave quickly, so how could he possibly prepare a house for her?
Therefore, he rejected Su Kexuan's enthusiasm: "That won't be necessary."
Seeing that the other party did not want to talk more, Su Kexuan did not force it.
Afterward, her smile faded slightly, and she deepened her tone: "I came to find you today because there is another matter to discuss with you."
"Go ahead."
"You should have heard the rumors about me. To avoid causing any impact on the factory here, I have decided to withdraw my capital and exit the factory's management."
Su Kexuan's decision stunned Sui Xin's father.
He had originally thought that Su Kexuan had heard the rumors and was coming to split the dividends.
He hadn't expected...
Sui Xin's father was overjoyed.
On the surface, however, he put on a surprised expression and consoled her: "Setbacks are only temporary; it will be fine once you get through this period. Don't be impulsive."
Su Kexuan did not take the other party's insincere words to heart.
She said indifferently, "I have already decided. Coming here today is just to tell you, and then to handle some paperwork."
"Oh my, this is truly such a pity."
Sui Xin's father feigned a sigh of regret.
Then he put on a troubled expression: "It's just that you are suddenly withdrawing your capital, and the factory here..."
Su Kexuan raised her finger, interrupting Sui Xin's father.
She then said, "The factory's recent earnings are good; you must have made quite a lot. After I withdraw my capital, you are fully capable of increasing your investment."
Sui Xin's father did not respond immediately.
His brows were tightly furrowed, his face full of conflict.
Seeing this, Su Kexuan "thoughtfully" offered another suggestion: "Of course, I could ask others if they are interested in the factory."
Sui Xin's father had just been putting on an act.
He did not want to share a profitable business with others.
Upon hearing Su Kexuan's second suggestion, he immediately said, "There's no need for such trouble!"
After hearing this, Su Kexuan slowly curled her lips: "I am most at ease leaving the factory to Mr. Sui; after all, we can be considered old acquaintances."
Sui Xin's father agreed repeatedly.
But in his heart, he couldn't help but curse: "What a slippery one!"
This Su Kexuan was not easy to fool at all.
Moreover, she knew the factory too well.
She had a clear grasp of the profit situation as well.
Even if Sui Xin's father used every trick in the book, he was afraid he wouldn't be able to take advantage of her.
But fortunately, he wouldn't suffer a loss either.
After saying some hypocritical words, Sui Xin's father signed the papers.
Su Kexuan got what she wanted.
This put her in a very good mood.
Before leaving, she gave Sui Xin's father a piece of advice: "If you want your career to be successful, beware of trouble at home."
Sui Xin's father felt this remark was inexplicable.
But to save face, he still smiled and said, "That makes sense."
Seeing that the other party didn't take it to heart, Su Kexuan didn't say anything more.
She gave him a meaningful smile and left the office.
Su Kexuan's smile made Sui Xin's father's body tremble.
Following it was a chill.
Why did it feel... so strange?
Sui Xin's father picked up his teacup and took a sip, wanting to use it to suppress this inexplicable sense of oddity.
But before he could calm his mood, Sui Xin rushed over in a panic.
Just now, she had been hiding at the door eavesdropping on their conversation.
Although Sui Xin didn't know why Su Kexuan would choose to withdraw at this critical juncture.
But based on the principle of making things difficult for Su Kexuan, Sui Xin lobbied her father: "Dad, for the sake of the factory, we cannot let Su Kexuan withdraw her capital!"
Sui Xin's father was unmoved.
He said, "The factory is already on the right track in every aspect; it doesn't matter whether she is here or not."
"But Su Kexuan has connections, has methods, and is smart. As long as she is here, the factory will only get better and better!"
"So, do you think I haven't contributed to the factory?"
"It's not that..."
"Enough! You don't even look at the messy things happening at her company lately! What kind of benefits can this bring to the factory? It's more likely to bring disaster! Hmph, short-sighted!"
