Chapter 428: Chapter 438 Just Playing Around

So when he heard that Dad was coming to visit his father-in-law today, he immediately followed.

“You’ve recently set up a commodity market, haven’t you?” Ever since this kid came back from Hong Kong, he’s been obsessed with money. Not too long ago, he actually acquired a piece of land and set up a large commodity market.

I really don’t know how much money he made from the Hong Kong stock market.

“Just playing around!” Meng Ping laughed it off. He was afraid that telling the old man how much money he made would scare him.

Today, Su Huai’an wasn’t waiting at the door ahead of time. Only Mr. Su’s assistant opened the door with a smile and welcomed them in.

“Hello, President!” The assistant greeted, “Director Su has returned. Mr. Su and Huai’an are upstairs in the study. Please take a seat first.”

“Has Su Hai come back? What about Su Yun?” Meng Xingzhi didn’t expect that both of them had already returned. Under normal circumstances, Su Yun would definitely seek him out first upon returning.

The assistant’s expression turned serious, “She’s not feeling well and went to the hospital as soon as she got back.” He had returned with Su Hai, and Su Yun didn’t even come home.

“Is it serious?”

“Director Su said it’s nothing serious. She just needs some glucose from fatigue due to the long journey!”

“Alright, I got it! I’ll go to the hospital to pick her up later,” Meng Xingzhi said, although he had many complaints about Su Yun in his heart, he still proved to be a qualified husband.

“What are they doing upstairs? Did they find out anything about my uncle?” Meng Ping was curious about Sheng Ning and guessed it had something to do with him upon hearing they were upstairs.

The assistant looked at Meng Ping with a half-smile, “I’m not quite sure myself, but you can ask them in person.”

This Second Young Master had always referred to Director Su as his cheap uncle, but it was strange today; he actually referred to him as his uncle.

“Shut your mouth!” Meng Xingzhi glared at him, “Mind your own business on things you shouldn’t be meddling in.” The scandal that had erupted in the General Union had landed on his desk, and he certainly didn’t want to see his son’s name written in it too.

He, Meng Xingzhi, couldn’t afford to lose that face!

Meng Ping never openly contradicted his father in public. If he was going to rebel, he did it on the sly. After being scolded by Meng Xingzhi, he just picked up an apple from the table and started eating it.

Meng Xingzhi was nearly driven to his wits’ end by anger. This rebellious son, eating an apple and not even offering one to his father.

Using Mr. Su’s words, what was the use of him?

In the study upstairs, three generations of the family were gathered. Su Hai relay detailing the results of the investigation to the two men, and finally exclaimed, “Thank goodness Qin Youmin had a good friend, or else we would never have seen Ningning again.” When he thought of how their precious daughter almost froze to death in the snow, Su Hai couldn’t control the rage filling his heart.

“How could there be such a malicious family? To treat an innocent life so cruelly!” Su Huai’an found it unbelievable.

Mr. Su, being from the old society and having seen much, knew that all kinds of people existed. Anyway, he was the calmest of the three. Actually, Su Hai was afraid that the news would be too much for Mr. Su and didn’t intend to tell him at first.

But fearing that Mr. Su would be even angrier if he found out later, he chose to be honest in the end.

“Such things were too common in the past.” Mr. Su sighed, “In the past, when education levels were low and the countryside favored boys over girls, such incidents were not rare.”

This was also why the Hai Family had already given up on looking for Bao’er; after being lost for so many years, the chances of her surviving out there were practically zero.
