Chapter 153: Jumping Off a Building

~8 min read 1,435 words

"Uncle, you can, but tears flowing onto your wound will hurt!"

【If your wailing fills the entire villa later, how am I supposed to sleep?】

Ye Shu was very moved; the hand lifting the towel paused. "Su Xi, look at her, then look at yourself—do you feel any shame?"

"No!"

Su Xi strode away and returned to his room to wash up. Su Yu followed right behind. She went back to her own room and obediently went to sleep.

When she woke up the next day, she finished eating and didn't go find Su Yi, but went to find the butler instead.

"Uncle Butler, did Uncle Ye cry last night?"

"He cried."

【Huh! I actually didn't hear it!】

"Why was he crying?"

"Miss Xie arranged a make-up proposal ceremony for him. He was moved to tears."

"Ah, what a pity! I didn't get to see it at all."

【Why do I feel like something is really odd about this!】

The butler heard Su Yu's words and began to doubt himself. Was he the only one who found it strange? Ye Shu was actually unhappy over this kind of thing? He proposed, succeeded, and even married his wife, yet he was unhappy that his wife didn't propose to him? No matter how he thought about it, his brain didn't seem quite normal!

Su Yu skipped over to Su Yi's sickroom. "Dad, let me tell you—you're not the most useless one. There's someone even more useless than you!"

【When will you ever get on a normal track?】

Su Yi: Isn't it you who won't let me get on a normal track?

Su Yi had grown tired of hearing Su Yu's scolding. Except for the moment right after waking up, he automatically tuned it out at all other times.

【Never mind, your other brother Qin Yuanjun isn't quite normal either. Maybe it's actually fine that you're asleep—at least you won't cause a bunch of messy trouble that drags my mom down!】

Su Yu thought of a saying: "Men are only honest when they're hanging on the wall."

Su Yu had already started worrying that Su Yi would look for a mistress after waking up.

【If you really do end up with other children, I hope the one who gets kicked out of the family in the end is you!】

Su Yi, who had just yawned and was about to go back to sleep: Unfilial daughter, what do you mean? Are you ruining my reputation?

Having said all this, Su Yu trotted after Su Xi to the company, leaving behind the impotently furious old father Su Yi to vent wildly in his own space!

Su Yu had just sat down in the office when Qin Tao came in to report news.

"General Manager Su, someone next door is jumping off a building."

Su Yu looked up in confusion. "What does that have to do with us?"

Su Yu felt it had nothing to do with them—it wasn't their building, so if someone wanted to jump, let them jump! Your life is your own; if you don't cherish it yourself, how can you expect others to cherish it for you? That's either silly or stupid!

"It's a former employee of ours who's jumping."

Su Yu opened her mouth in surprise. "Ah?"

【Wulongcha, who is it?】

【Please wait, let me check.】

Wulongcha quickly brought back the news: 【Host, it's Feng Yuanyuan!】

Feng Yuanyuan?

Wulongcha figured that with everything going on lately, Su Yu had probably forgotten, so it reminded her: 【She's the girl who was deceived by her biological parents. She even gave her house to her biological parents to live in and wanted to be adopted out to them, but her adoptive parents found out and sued to recover the other assets!】

Su Yu tilted her head in confusion. 【Which things were recovered?】

Wulongcha: Is that the main point?

【The money her adoptive parents gave her, the money her adoptive sister gave her, and the money and things that relatives of her adoptive parents' family gave her, and so on. Anything that was documented, Feng Yuanyuan's adoptive parents sued to get back.】

【They cut ties so cleanly! How could people like that raise two girls who aren't quite normal?】

One was deceived by her biological parents, the other was deceived by the person she liked—neither came to a good end!

【It wasn't what they wanted either, cutting ties so cleanly. It was their lawyer's suggestion. And this lawyer seems to have some connection to your family.】

Su Yu understood Wulongcha's hint. 【My uncle is still looking after her?】

Su Xi, standing to the side repeatedly tapping the table, pretending to be thinking but actually eavesdropping, grumbled inwardly. If he didn't look after her, she'd go drive the other Logistics Department employees to death!

【You wouldn't know, Host, but lately she's been outside every day intercepting employees in the Su Clan Group's Logistics Department known for their good temper, begging them to put in a word for her so she can return to work at the Su Clan.】

Su Yu was shocked inwardly. 【How is that possible? Even if HR agreed, we wouldn't agree!】

Wulongcha said speechlessly, 【I don't know who gave her that illusion. She unilaterally believed it was possible. Then she started harassing the Logistics Department employees. The worst off is that deputy director of the Logistics Department.】

Su Yu ran to one side, watching the crowded flow of people on the opposite rooftop while listening to the gossip.

【What happened to him?】

【The deputy director of the Logistics Department probably likes Feng Yuanyuan. I accidentally found his diary, which records that he didn't dare express his feelings to Feng Yuanyuan, and after helping her, he even lied and claimed it was the director who did it. He was also very good to Feng Yuanyuan in daily life, making Feng Yuanyuan treat him as a male bestie? Probably a male bestie.】

【At the time, what that deputy director felt when he heard Feng Yuanyuan wanted to make a move on the director—I couldn't find that out; it wasn't written in his diary. But afterward, Feng Yuanyuan started pestering him, wanting him to help get her back into the Su Clan so she could live a normal life.】

【A normal life? Isn't Feng Yuanyuan's life normal? Did that pair of bizarre parents start making moves?】

【Yes!】

Wulongcha found out that Feng Yuanyuan's younger brother and his wife had already divorced. Her brother had signed a prenuptial agreement back then, so he left the marriage with nothing!

【Her brother's son was awarded to the mother, who had better financial conditions. Feng Yuanyuan's biological parents stated on the spot that the child was no longer their family's seed!】

Wulongcha had found it somewhat strange at the time—didn't humans always say that blood ties couldn't be severed?

【They wanted to find a new wife for their son, but they had no money. Feng Yuanyuan's money was basically all used to return what her adoptive parents had given her. A portion didn't need to be returned, but most of it had to be. Over the years, Feng Yuanyuan not only worked for nothing, she was also saddled with a pile of debt. Those two wanted to bring Feng Yuanyuan, who had been abroad, back to their hometown for matchmaking.】

Su Yu was genuinely speechless.

【She should seek legal aid, or ask the police for help. Climbing up to our rooftop to threaten us—what kind of nonsense is that? Also, isn't the Yin family's rooftop a bit too easy to climb?】

Su Yu gazed at the high rooftop. Feng Yuanyuan seemed very scared, but she was still brandishing a knife around, not allowing anyone or rescue personnel to get close to her.

【The Yin family has stepped in to help.】

【Why is the Yin Family targeting our family?】

Su Yu felt this enemy came for no reason!

【They wanted to create a hot topic, launder some money they had gotten.】

Back then, the Yin Family could agree only because the money offered was simply too much!

They didn't spit it out back then; they wanted to take this opportunity to launder it, return it to their own accounts, and make up for the loss a bit.

Su Xi had people call the police and fire department, then had PR flood the Yin Clan building's defenses in that Yin Clan live-stream room, and posted online an introduction of the Yin Clan building.

Su Yu didn't dare to think, 【How huge a sum of money is that! Didn't that wanted criminal expose their deal?】

Good night, babies~
