Chapter 381: Sophistry

How can you, as soon as you show up, maliciously slander someone?

This is clearly a personal attack!

Su Peng looked unconvinced.

He said resentfully: "You're maliciously slandering me! I think your behavior has many problems, so I applied—let my sister subdue you!" He glared fiercely at Jiang Cheng.

Then, his gaze fell on Su Manyao, waiting for her to step in and help.

However——

Su Manyao appeared and gave him a disdainful glance: "You jerk, you're just here to embarrass yourself. If it weren't that my family doesn't allow me, I'd really want to tell everyone you're not my brother!"

That embarrassment-inducing thing of his!

Su Manyao looked at him with exasperation, truly feeling indescribable.

This guy is just plain stupid!

His behavior now makes him seem like an idiot, day after day, not knowing what he's thinking about.

Su Peng suffered the disdain of his own sister and Jiang Cheng.

He stared, dumbfounded.

His face full of indignation, he was nearly fuming with anger over this!

He glared at Jiang Cheng and Su Manyao each once, then stretched out his hand and pointed at them.

"You're really over the top!"

"I trust you unconditionally, you two—you keep nitpicking me, is that it?" Su Peng burned with anger inside, feeling they were being over the top, saying all sorts of things.

After all, we're all grasshoppers on the same rope; shouldn't we help each other?

But they, as soon as they showed up, immediately started sneering and mocking!

Hearing those words, his heart felt a piercing pain, making his breathing difficult as well.

Jiang Cheng gave him a bland look: "Your acting is terrible; my advice is to practice properly later. If you improve, I might consider signing you."

Jiang Cheng was completely serious.

Su Peng: "......"

Upon hearing that, he fell silent instantly, his incredulous eyes quickly meeting Jiang Cheng's.

He looked astonished.

No!

Should Jiang Cheng listen properly? What is he himself saying right now?

Su Peng, his face full of shock, was incredulous.

Jiang Cheng, however, wore a solemn expression: "What do you think?"

Jiang Cheng turned to look at Su Manyao and asked her seriously.

Su Manyao's hand rested on her chin.

She pondered carefully, then—she slightly shook her head and answered Jiang Cheng seriously: "Although his looks are fine, he has a bit of a mental issue; are you sure you really want to sign him?"

"If he ends up causing you trouble, I can't help you!"

Su Manyao said this very seriously.

Upon hearing that, Su Peng fell silent instantly.

Overwhelmed with mixed feelings, he found it hard to articulate his current complex emotions.

One is his close brother, the other his own sister.

Both of them, to his face, kept showing disdain.

It made him feel like trash!

The point is, he has both looks and ability.

Only Jiang Cheng and his group would keep despising him like this!

And he——

expressed his unwillingness to accept it!

Even though he felt unwilling inside, he could only forcibly suppress it.

"Forget it, I'm magnanimous; I'll reluctantly let you off this once and won't hold it against you." Su Peng knew he couldn't win against them, so he silently closed his mouth. He didn't dare speak!

When those two go crazy, they bombard him from head to toe with a fierce scolding!

The point is, it's all baseless nonsense.

Night fell, and the lights began to glow.

Su Manyao's parents arrived late, swaying gently.

They felt extremely guilty.

"Sorry, the company suddenly had a problem; the situation was special, so I had to rush back to handle it!" Su Fu apologized embarrassedly to Jiang Cheng, who had traveled a great distance to their home, surely just wanting to talk with them as parents.

As a result, he had no choice but to go back because of his affairs.

If it were someone else, they probably couldn't accept this at all.

Jiang Cheng didn't mind: "No problem, we're both running companies—I understand!"

Accidents don't give advance notice.

He always arrives suddenly.

!

Therefore, Jiang Cheng can very well understand the person before him.

Jiang Cheng had no intention of blaming.

He said: "Have you finished your matters? If not, let's reschedule." Jiang Cheng wore a smile, his attitude sincere, earnestly discussing with the person before him!

At that moment, Su Fu nodded: "Everything has been completely resolved!"

"Fortunately, we discovered it early; otherwise, if this kind of thing worsened, it would be very detrimental to the company!" Su Fu's expression was stern; after discussing this matter, he slightly furrowed his brows, his mood not looking good.

A traitor appeared in the company.

That traitor had been by Su Fu's side for many years.

Su Fu had been cultivating this person, hoping that they would become formidable in the future.

In the future, they could share some of his burdens.

However—

Yet the other party's actions left him utterly disappointed!

He had thought this child would never betray him in this lifetime.

But the news he received today made his mood impossibly complicated!

He never imagined that one day, his trusted subordinate would treat him like a fool and lead him around in circles!

The key is that the other party never admitted fault from start to finish!

At that time, he still painstakingly made excuses, insisting the matter had nothing to do with him. In reality, every word he spoke was deliberately slanderous!

Not a single word of his can be trusted!

After exhausting all efforts to cultivate him, he ended up being played around by the other party!

Although he had long been accustomed to such things—after all, in the business world, betrayal is utterly commonplace.

But—

He never imagined that one day, his own loyal and devoted subordinate would treat him like a fool and lead him around in circles.

The key is that the other party kept making excuses.

He kept saying he had never done such a thing.

Even with the evidence laid before him, he still argued stubbornly and denied it.

Su Fu was very disappointed.

He felt his trust had been ruthlessly trampled underfoot by the other party.

Those actions of the other party—

made him involuntarily shake his head, his eyes filled with an indescribable disdain.

He had never imagined actually despising the other party that way.

But the other party's conduct ultimately left him feeling chilled to the bone!

At that moment, Su Fu was overwhelmed with mixed feelings; he pondered for a long time, many things seeming incomprehensible, constantly swirling in his mind.

No matter how hard he thought, he still couldn't fathom how that child's mind could be so clumsy; why did they have to betray him? After the betrayal, suffering a blacklisting in the industry, could they really be willing? (End of chapter)
