In the magnificent hotel, everyone at the table was toasting each other. Zhao Ling wanted to talk to Su Yan several times, but Su Yan avoided her. Zhao Ling was not angry because she treated Su Yan like a money tree.
Zhao Ling turned around and saw Su Qian eating in small bites. She immediately said, “Her foundation is different, there is a big difference between the one who grew up in the city and the one who grew up in the countryside.”
Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Zhao Ling added, “Although daughters are considerate, in the end, the one that was raised by your side will have more chemistry with you.” Zhao Ling looked at Mother Su. “Am I right?”
Mother Su always remembered Father Su’s warning. Now that Father Su did not object, she could only nod with a stiff expression.
Su Qian never expected Zhao Ling to say that she was lacking in manners when she pretended to be gentle and demure. She could neither chew nor spit out a piece of steak. She just stared blankly at everyone.
Zhao Ling could not wait to get the millions that belonged to her, she did not care that the current atmosphere was not good. She stood up and said to Su Yan, “Auntie just bought a new dress, would you like to try it on with me?”
Su Yan raised her eyebrows. As intelligent as she was, she could already guess that Zhao Ling had gone through so much trouble to invite her out this time not just to treat her to a meal. Was this her objective?
But so what?
The shop that Zhao Ling mentioned was not far away. Su Yan and the rest walked out of the restaurant and reached the shop in less than ten minutes. The shop was a little deserted and looked out of place when compared to the other shops.
It was obvious that Zhao Ling was a regular customer of this shop. When Zhao Ling walked into the shop, two sales assistants came out and surrounded her, serving her.
“Wait here for a while, I’ll come out after changing.”
Without waiting for Su Yan’s reply, she left with the salesperson.
After she left, there was no one left in the shop.
Su Yan confirmed that the people Shi Qing had left for her had already settled down nearby and that they would appear at any time when something happened to her. Only then did she sit on the sofa with a piece of mind and grab a magazine to read with relish.
With the sound of wind chimes, a young man in a flowery shirt strolled into the shop.
He walked straight to Su Yan and greeted her respectfully. “Miss Yun.”
Su Yan looked up from the magazine.
The man was shocked and muttered, “Yes, you really look alike. Miss Yun looks at least eighty percent like the late Madam Yun.” The man in the flowery shirt seemed to be very agitated. His face was flushed and his lips were pale from being bitten. He stared at her with a burning gaze and only calmed down after a long while.
The man in the flowery shirt continued, “Miss Yun, when are you going back to the Yun family? The amount of inheritance left behind by Mr. Yun is too large. The Yun family is about to break their heads in order to fight for the inheritance.”
“Shouldn’t you introduce yourself? Who are you?”
Only then did the flowery shirt man come back to his senses and scratch his head. Embarrassed, he said, “Hello, Miss Yun. My name is Lu Jie. My father is Mr. Yun’s lawyer. This time, my father entrusted me to come to City A to find you. He also asked you to sign a contract regarding the inheritance of Mr. Yun. When you go to the Capital, the contract will take effect and you will inherit Mr. Yun’s inheritance.”
Her inheritance? Su Yan took the document from Lu Jie and casually flipped through it twice before putting it aside. Placing a hand on her chin, she asked, “How are you so sure that I’m the heir to this inheritance?”
Lu Jie said embarrassedly, “We’ve already collected your hair follicles for DNA comparison and confirmed that you’re Mr. Yun’s daughter.”
“I see,” Su Yan said again. “Lawyer Lu really went through all the trouble to come all the way from the Capital to City A just to get me to sign this document?”
Lu Jie was about to explain, but looking at Su Yan’s half-smile, he felt uneasy. Could it be that his plan had been leaked? That shouldn’t be the case.
Su Yan tilted her head and sized up Lu Jie’s face that was changing at every moment, she was just short of clapping and praising him.
“Ahem, I’m a lawyer after all, professional ethics is very important,” Lu Jie said cheekily.
Su Yan did not comment on Lu Jie’s explanation. She only said indifferently, “Leave the document here first, I will look for a lawyer to help me check it later. If there are no problems, I will sign it.”
Lu Jie had a guilty look on his face. It was not a problem for an outsider to read the document, but if a lawyer were to read it, it would be easy to see the loopholes in the document. He could not let Su Yan see the problem.
The originally quiet and peaceful clothing store suddenly became alert. Thick smoke billowed out from the storeroom, filling Su Yan’s nose with a burnt smell.
“Is there a fire? Miss Yun, let’s leave quickly.” Lu Jie was not discussing with Su Yan at all. He was asking Su Yan to leave in a commanding tone.
Su Yan followed Lu Jie out of the shop.. The problematic document was coincidentally forgotten in the clothing store.
