Chapter 368: Shi Family Funeral Ceremony

~13 min read 2,551 words

Jiang Yuzhen, the free‑promotion antagonist, shows up, and Su Yu just uses her for publicity.

"Alright, Little General Manager Su!"

Jiang Yuzhen and the livestream audience watch the Su Clan people collectively moving some items out, a bit puzzled; apart from the troll army that exposed Jiang Yuzhen's dark history, everyone else fixes on those items, asking nonstop.

Jiang Yuzhen cries like pear blossoms in rain, never stopping.

She feels a bit thirsty.

But seeing the account's followers still rising, she endures!

Su Clan's employees quickly leave; then the guide NPC from Su Yu's scenic game APP appears in the lobby, beginning to list the misdeeds Jiang Yuzhen has committed over the years!

"Jiang Yuzhen, a student, was discovered abusing cats and dogs, poisoning the school, resulting in the death of all school cats and dogs. A social‑media user once leaked it, but it was suppressed!"

The guide NPC retrieved that blogger's post and projected it into mid‑air.

Jiang Yuzhen, eyes brimming with tears, looks at the guide NPC, "You don't want me to see Mom, no, Aunt Ji, and you don't need to defame me like this, right? Can't I just leave?"

Jiang Yuzhen whines and leaves.

Without a showcase platform, Su Yu isn't very happy.

"Record some videos, and I'll upload them later!"

"Alright, Little General Manager Su!"

The projection team staff are practically overjoyed! They've really hit the jackpot this time, managing to ride on Su Yu's traffic! With another publicity channel, their group's projection device might see a sales boost! Jiang Yuzhen whines away, but netizens aren't stupid. Some people think Jiang Yuzhen's crying is too sad and still believe her. Others prefer to investigate the truth themselves, searching online for that blogger.

In the end, they actually found it! #Jiang Yuzhen poisoned cats and dogs# Jiang Yuzhen quickly trended on Hot Search!

Jiang Yuzhen's social account soon faced netizen backlash, but she wasn't upset at all! She even hoped they'd scold her more! Her account revenue keeps rising!

The larger the traffic, the larger her income. She watches the ever‑rising view counts, page views, and so on, getting so excited she can't sleep the whole night! The next day, with dark circles under her eyes, she cries into the camera, "Wuwu, I really didn't do it. I thought all night and just can't figure out how to prove myself; the pure will be cleared, the impure will remain impure!"

Jiang Yuzhen deliberately adjusts the angle, and the camera captures her gaunt yet delicate face.

Some people are swayed by Jiang Yuzhen's attitude. Nowadays, marketing accounts will go to any lengths to spread rumors. Especially that marketing account seems to have some connection with the Su Family.

Other people trust their own judgment. They have already found a former classmate who attended the same school as Jiang Yuzhen, and their assessment of her is indeed not very high.

Su Yu watches the video and laughs brightly! 【Wulongcha, you say, if she knew I have something that could land her in the police station, would she regret provoking me?】

【She might only regret that back then she didn't act thoroughly enough and didn't clean up all the evidence.】

Wulongcha, in recent years when it has nothing to do, still goes to look at human case files; it has seen every kind of person. After seeing so much of humanity's dark side, it gradually adopts an indifferent attitude toward humans, except Su Yu.

The blogger under Meng Xianle quickly posted all the evidence on the #Jiang Yuzhen response# hot search, and also @‑mentioned the girl from back then, urging her to report to the police!

Jiang Yuzhen's malicious poisoning and damage to others' property constitute crimes that can land her in jail!

Spectating netizens get excited again!

Netizens who saw the evidence also helped @‑mention, prompting the pet's original owner to report to the police! The original owner went with the online evidence!

The online uproar was boiling, and Luyingying, who just returned from shopping, was very curious, "How do you have evidence from back then?"

Looking at it, it still seems like something left from back then; it's not something you can get by hacking the internet.

"Our family has always been watching the Jiang family! I'm so petty, how could I let the Jiang family go! If I had grown up with my mother, I wonder how smart, cute and beautiful I'd be!"

Whether she'd be smarter and prettier than now, Luyingying doesn't know, but Ji Yan will definitely send healthy Su Yu to kindergarten; the state would surely detect Su Yu's abnormality earlier. If she stayed with the Jiang family, under their upbringing, people would be ruined! Thinking that, Luyingying suddenly feels the Jiang family deserves it!

"Right, exactly, post any evidence you have!"

Luyingying makes a phone call, and shortly after, #Jiang Yuzhen taken away# jumps onto Hot Search!

Su Yu looks at the Hot Search with satisfaction, continuing to be a corporate drone.

In the evening, returning home, Su Yu drags her weary body, intending to go upstairs to rest, but Butler Wang, newly trained by Butler Uncle, blocks her.

"Butler Wang, may I ask what's the matter?"

Every time Su Yu calls Butler Wang, it feels odd, like an internet meme becoming reality! "Miss Su, the Second Young Lady instructed that you must finish the supplement before returning to your room!"

"Alright then!"

Su Yu received her mother's nagging last night, saying she should take more supplements. She brushed it off with a couple of perfunctory words, not expecting that today the Butler would watch her personally, even video‑calling, letting Ji Yan watch her eat!

"Mom, it's so hard to swallow!"

Su Yu doesn't like taking high‑efficacy supplements because they're hard to swallow!

The family's head chef took a leave; this chef isn't good at making supplements. Su Yu takes a sip and feels it's not nourishing the body but torturing it! "Your face, what has it become! Even if you work overtime, you must watch your health; health is capital!"

Ji Yan didn't expect her daughter to show a potential for overworking at such a young age. Su Yi asked Su Xi to adjust Su Yu's working hours, shocking both Ji Yan and Su Yi!

Twelve hours of work—who are they trying to grind to death?

"Mm hm!"

Su Yu nods like a merciless nodding meme.

Ji Yan, helpless, brings up another matter.

"You have to attend the Shi Family's funeral the day after tomorrow; Aunt Mingmeng called me, asking you to help take care of Guoguo and Jiu Jiu."

The Shi Family's succession drama hasn't concluded, and the old master Shi couldn't hold on, passing away.

When the lawyer read the will, Shi Xu and Mingmeng cursed and swore! Shi Xu never imagined the old master left most of the estate to him!

Mingmeng just felt a tingling on her scalp! Over the years, Shi Xu, well aware that raising children is difficult, stopped urging her to have children, and instead, on his mother's phone that was urging her to have children, he urges his mother to have children.

Shi Xu's mother, seeing the family feud intensify, gives up on urging, allowing them to teach Guoguo and Jiu Jiu, making Jiu Jiu take the surname Ming.

But now that Shi Xu inherits the family business, the situation changes!

As the new head of the family, countless people will try to force her to have children, or force her to abdicate. "Aunt Mingmeng, you really regret not learning more self‑defense back then; now you can only hire bodyguards!"

Those pushing Mingmeng to step down dominate the mainstream. And the way to silence both the Ming family and Shi Xu's two daughters is—kill Mingmeng! "Do they still need protection? Aren't they, like me, well‑trained?"

Guoguo and Jiu Jiu are both heirs. Guoguo was raised as a merchant's child, with good physical condition. Jiu Jiu was cultivated as a politician's child, also stronger than ordinary people.

"The new head of the Shi Family is Shi Xu; I'm afraid someone will act against Guoguo and Jiu Jiu!"

There are too many people vying for that position! If they can't get the entry ticket, they'll eliminate the eyesore in front!

"Luckily our Su Family has a simple population!"

Mingmeng is said to have not slept a single night, cramming the clan members' data. Back then Mingmeng thought she didn't have to inherit the family business, so she partied hard, often taking her family out to travel, relax, and shop! As for the internal clan data? That's for the clan matriarch or the family head's wife to learn! It has nothing to do with her; she not only learns nothing, she even forgets many rules! And she didn't expect that one day she herself would become the family head's wife! Now picking it up wants her dead! Ji Yan finds it funny that Mingmeng collapses every hour, wailing for her, and she laughs! No matter how much she sympathizes with Mingmeng, even her timed wails become both laughable and tragic! "Right, a simple population has its advantages!"

【Wulongcha, why does Shi Xu inherit it, not Shi Yu?】

Where's the promised aura of the male lead's father? Does the father lose his aura if the male lead isn't born? 【The will is written like this; the reason is probably that the old man of the Shi Family died so quickly he didn't have time to amend it!】

The Shi Family elder is just a normal person. Without the nourishment of cards, his body keeps weakening, and his mind shifts from early sharpness to later defensiveness and obstinacy! 【Does Shi Xu have trouble?】

【Yes, a huge trouble! Inheriting a company requires performance, and Shi Xu has been too laid‑back these years! He lacks strength, has few loyal subordinates, and trying to develop is no different from starting from scratch!】

【No wonder they want me to go protect Guoguo and Jiu Jiu!】

She is the industry's model for entrepreneurship and inheriting a company! Shi Xu is under great pressure and wants someone to back him up, which is understandable!

Su Yu thought for a moment, then turned to Luyingying, "What if someone is short‑sighted and offends me, what should I do?"

Luyingying didn't know what to do, "Should I ask the base leaders for help?"

"No, no, no, I'll post it on the official account, let everyone see the gossip, and let netizens see that the world is still full of oddballs!"

"Alright, I'll apply right away!"

Luyingying went to report upward, while Su Yu was already looking forward to attending the Shi Family's funeral ceremony!

That day, Su Yu wore a sleek black outfit and arrived with a group of bodyguards.

Luyingying, also dressed in black, complained, "We really look like the mafia coming to wreck the place!"

From the boss to the bodyguards, everyone was in black. With Su Yu's stone‑cold expression, at first glance the whole crew looked like villains!

"Wearing white doesn't fit our status; black is best—unobtrusive and suitable for our identity!"

Su Yu isn't a junior of the Shi Family; she doesn't need a flower tucked at the side of her hair or an all‑white outfit. She's here mainly for Guoguo and Jiu Jiu!

Guoguo and Jiu Jiu, each with a little white flower on their heads, saw Su Yu and rushed over, hugging her!

"Sister Xiao Yu, I missed you so much!"

Jiu Jiu nodded like crushing garlic, "I missed you too!"

"Long time no see, how have you been lately?"

Guoguo and Jiu Jiu's heads shook like a rattle; the two sisters said in unison, "Not good, not good at all!"

Guoguo led Su Yu through the procedures; after they finished, Guoguo took Su Yu to a corner sofa to sit.

"These past two days, those teachers suddenly raised the difficulty of my studies. They say it's because other elders demanded it; they're just following orders!

But for me it's truly torment! There's no transition at all; they just force knowledge into my mind. Are they sick or what?!"

Jiu Jiu also nodded, "Grandma wants me to change my surname, but my household registration is with my Maternal Grandparents. She says she'll tear the heavens apart, yet Maternal Grandparents won't hand me over to Grandma!"

Jiu Jiu really dislikes her grandma. From childhood, grandma has been just a symbol—no care, no love, no money, nothing! "Sister Xiao Yu, I truly think the adults have gone crazy!"

Guoguo was so annoyed she wanted to smash things! If Shi Xu and Mingmeng hadn't warned her in advance, she would have smashed everything here! This matter Su Yu can't easily persuade! The heir curriculum is originally something an heir must study. In earlier years, when Shi Xu wasn't the heir, Guoguo had very little to learn. But once someone automatically becomes the next heir, they can't refuse those courses! Guoguo must either adapt early or give up the rights of inheritance! "If your family doesn't become heirs, it's a pity!"

The status and position would be just right! "Not a pity—we were doing great before!"

Guoguo and Jiu Jiu unanimously expressed satisfaction with their previous life, "If we mess up, a beating on the spot would be fine!"

Guoguo looked around, then kept muttering, "Before we could go straight back to our rooms; now we have to stay here and pretend to be filial and virtuous. Those elders mourning Grandfather either laugh like wolves that love to skin‑attack, or are as cold as fake‑person ghosts!"

Guoguo occasionally goes to the company for fun. She's gotten a lot of gossip from the staff.

"They've all turned into black‑chicken eyes; unfortunately none of them inherit! Lately they try to act friendly and get close to me, completely ignoring me, wanting to toy with me! Hmph! Am I such an easy target?"

"Friendly? Getting close?"

Guoguo nodded, Jiu Jiu shared the gossip, "They say sister should get married, pick someone she likes soon!"

"……"

Guoguo is three years younger than Su Yu.

"That's illegal!"

Guoguo is still a minor! "Right, exactly, I always shout back at them!"

Guoguo originally wanted to count how many times she shouted back. After counting less than half, she gave up! Too many times loses meaning!

Jiu Jiu picked up a slice of melon, "They've done a lot of wrong things for that position!"

Jiu Jiu followed the two elders of the Ming family, privately reading countless files. She's carefully examined everything about the Shi Family and the Ming Family. After reading, she has some schemes, but unfortunately she's too young, lacks connections and the ability to carry them out.

Guoguo got angry at this, "Damn, they pretend to have no opinion on the inheritance division, then pick on me every day. The money isn't mine; they should go after my dad!"

Always nagging her, what's that about!

"They think you're easy to fool, right?"

Guoguo looks like an inexperienced child, seems more mischievous than Jiu Jiu, and on top of that Jiu Jiu is protected by her Maternal Grandparents. The elders probably want someone easy to handle, easier to grip in their hands!

People like that make good friends. Su Yu really likes Guoguo! Thanks for the votes, darlings~ Good night, darlings~
