Chapter 178: Destroy everyone Chapter 178: Destroy everyone Her voice was scattered and willful, and the gaze she cast upon him had no ripples, as calm as water.
Yet, the calmer she was, the more Gu Heng felt an even deeper discomfort than if she had been mocking him.
Su Ran left, and Su Zhongyuan swept a cold glance at Su Hongde before snorting contemptuously and turning to go upstairs.
Deng Jingru and Gu Qiming also felt some embarrassment, and they left without even eating.
Back at the company, Su Ran rubbed her temples wearily.
She took out her phone and drafted a message.
[R: How is the investigation into the Xu Family matter going?]
Soon, someone replied.
[An Er: Boss, do you want to make it public?]
[An Yi: Then what should we do with the material we have?]
Su Ran arched her eyebrow.
[R: Wait for my notice.]
Su Ran threw the phone on the desk, and leaned back into the chair with a fatigued expression.
“Any progress on Su Xinyan’s matter?”
Qin Ke hurriedly handed the materials she held to Su Ran.
“President Su, here is the information we’ve found.”
Su Ran took them, quickly flipping through until a sardonic curve formed on her lips when she saw the contents.
It seems Su Xinyan believed that with the Su Family and the Gu Family standing behind her, she could do whatever she wanted.
“Did you get the evidence?”
Su Ran closed the file.
“Good, send it to me.”
In the afternoon, there was not much to do at the company, and Su Ran stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, looking out at the bustling city.
She was in casual business attire, with large, wavy hair cascading down to her waist and a slender, yet well-proportioned figure. Her exquisite, nearly bewitching face showed no emotion, and her radiant, lustrous eyes gazed faintly into the distance.
The expression on her face was indifferent, devoid of any emotion, and after a long sigh, she turned and left the company.
Su Ran didn’t drive herself, instead, she hailed a taxi to the hospital where Yaosang Qianyue was.
With no accompanying personnel around, the already quiet ward seemed even quieter.
The woman’s beautiful face was unchanged, her delicate features and thick, butterfly wing-like eyelashes, even in sleep, could not hide her inherent noble and aloof temperament.
Su Ran’s somber gaze fell on her mother’s peaceful and beautiful face, flickering slightly, as if shrouded in a breath of sadness.
Only here, in front of her mother, did she dare to reveal even a hint of her emotions.
As usual, Su Ran wiped Yaosang Qianyue’s body, changed her into clean clothes, and then pulled up a chair to sit by the bed.
Her gaze gradually softened.
“Mom, I went back to the Su Family today. Without you there, they all bullied me.”
“Grandma… Wen Peipei has arranged a marriage for me, with Xu Jie, the eldest son of the Xu Family. You may not know him, but he’s a notorious playboy in Yong City, never married, with a four- or five-year-old daughter. I heard his means of tormenting others are varied and cruel. Yet Wen Peipei introduced him to me and even wants to announce our marriage at the Enrich new product show as a cover for Gu Heng and Su Xinyan.”
“They bully me because they think I have no one to stand up for me, so, when will you wake up?”
She paused briefly, tightening her grip on Yaosang Qianyue’s hand.
“Mom, I want to destroy them, to destroy everyone in the Su Family.”
Su Ran’s tone suddenly turned ice-cold, like the millennia-old ice at the peak of a snow mountain, devoid of any warmth.
