What Ning Ge and Old Master Cheng talked about, outsiders would never know, but after Ning Ge left, Old Master Cheng smashed his most beloved Yixing teapot, his face full of cold and murderous intent.
Back in the days of fighting the Japanese, Old Master Cheng had also crawled over piles of corpses, the smell of blood on him was once so strong it made people shudder with fear. Later, after the liberation, as his children and grandchildren filled the house and he aged, his iron-blooded nature gradually faded.
But this didnāt mean his cold and stern demeanor had completely disappeared; it had only settled down.
Old Master Cheng never expected that Cheng Su, who seemed so poised, graceful, open-minded, and considerate, had experienced such troublesome matters.
What could be more painful for a woman than losing her child?
Yet she never showed any sadness. Although they werenāt particularly close at the beginning, when someone has something weighing on their mind, there are always some clues, and if thereās resentment, itās even more evident. But she didnāt show any; itās hard to say whether sheās broad-minded or just hides it deep!
That Loo Family, that Miss Chiang, arenāt they just bullying Cheng Su for coming from a small family, bullying her because she has no family support?
Old Master Cheng suddenly thought of his own younger sister Suxin. Could she be like Cheng Su, having to endure silently when bullied because there was no family to support her?
Old Master Cheng felt a deep heartache; with this thought, he found both women pitiable.
"Yaozong, Yaozu, you come..." Old Master Cheng made a cold decision.
If they bullied Cheng Su for having no family background, he would be her background.
The Loo Family, arenāt they just merchants? If they want to strut like crabs in Guangcheng, thereās no chance!
Soon after, the leader on Shenglongās Guangcheng operations faintly felt something was amiss; their transportation routes seemed to be obstructed, blocked everywhere, sometimes for a month at a time. What was happening?
And this was only the beginning.
Cheng Su knew nothing of this. Sitting on the train, she wished she could grow wings and fly back home, her mind constantly pondering the impact of this incident.
The impact was self-evident; their company had been open for more than two years and was currently in a phase of growth. If the business were destroyed, theyād be back to square one.
Moreover, their company had just been used as collateral for a loan guarantee.
How coincidental was this?
Could this be another competitive tactic from their peers?
Cheng Su was extremely anxious.
"When the boat reaches the bridge head, it will naturally straighten, donāt think too much, or youāll get even more confused and unable to see a way forward!" Ying Xiaoya noticed the furrowed brow and couldnāt help but say.
Cheng Su nodded and exhaled. Yes, she must not panic. Panic would mean making no judgments, unable to sort things out.
After two days and a night, as soon as Cheng Su got off the train, she didnāt even think of going home but first placed her luggage in the fast food store, using their phone to call the factory.
"Xiao Pinshan, itās me, Iām back. Get ready, weāll have a meeting as soon as I arrive," Cheng Su ordered succinctly.
Qi Fenglian saw her rushing and full of gloom, couldnāt help asking, "What happened?"
"Nothing, just some issues with the factory. Big Sister, I canāt chat with you, help me with my luggage. Iāll get it later, I need to go to the company now!" Cheng Su hurriedly said. Before Qi Fenglian could respond, she dashed out the door like the wind.
Qi Fenglian stood in a daze, didnāt mind, glanced at Cheng Suās luggage, bags large and small, pursed her lips, gathered them together, and stood there distracted.
