Chapter 187

Su Ziyue spent the entire day with An Xia.

After having dinner at a restaurant, they returned to their respective places.

Su Ziyue hesitated for several seconds before she pushed open the door of her unit.

Inside the pitch black unit, she could detect the presence of no one else other than herself, which meant Qin

Muchen was not there.

She felt relieved first and then a mild sense of loss.

Trying to stop herself from overthinking, she went to bed after washing up.

She took a long time to fall asleep and she wondered whether it was because the space beside her was empty.

The next day was a Monday.

Su Ziyue put on the new clothes she had purchased yesterday with An Xia and set off to the office after applying

some makeup.

Everyone knew about the cancellation of Gong Zeyang and Su Yige’s engagement after the interview was aired

yesterday.

The moment Su Ziyue stepped into the office, she could sense the subtle difference in the atmosphere.

Although she did not mean to eavesdrop, she could still catch snippets of conversation around her talking about the

matter.

“Have you heard about Young Lady Su and Young Master Gong’s decision to call off their engagement?”

“I watched their interview yesterday. Do you think the decision was really made in peace?”

“That’s too much of a coincidence. Didn’t Young Lady Su go overseas for several months before this? Could she

have had an affair there… so…”

While Su Ziyue was walking to her office, comments of such a nature could be heard everywhere.

To be honest, she secretly relished listening to those slanderous remarks from her fellow colleagues.

In fact, she was also curious about the real reason behind their breakup.

“Good morning, Director Su!” A group of female colleagues, who had been gossiping about Su Yige and Gong

Zeyang just now, immediately stopped their discussion when they saw Su Ziyue and greeted her instead.

Su Ziyue nodded at them in response to their greetings.

Just as she stepped into her room, she received a call from Su Youcheng.

“I suppose you’ve reached the office? Please come to my office now!” Su Youcheng’s voice sounded as stern as

usual and he hung up on her right after he gave her his instruction.

Looking unruffled, Su Ziyue kept away her phone and made her way to Su Youcheng’s room.

When she reached his office, she knocked on his door steadily and only pushed the door open and walked inside

after getting his acknowledgement.

She found Su Yige, who looked dispirited, there too.

Ignoring Su Yige directly, she beamed at Su Youcheng and asked, “Grandpa, how can I help you?”

As one shouldn’t treat a smiling person with hostility, Su Youcheng spoke calmly with a deep frown on his forehead

although he was in a fit of anger, “Take a seat. I have some questions for you.”

Su Ziyue took a step back and sat down opposite Su Yige. “Please go ahead.”

Noticing Su Ziyue was looking composed with a clear conscience, Su Youcheng narrowed his eyes slightly and

asked, “Have you been secretly keeping in touch with Gong Zeyang?”

“I don’t really understand your question.” Su Ziyue’s expression turned slightly somber. Despite telling her

grandfather that she was confused, something had already dawned upon her inside.

In the end, Su Yige, who was sitting directly opposite her, spoke before Su Youcheng could. “Ziyue, I had no idea

that you’ve always had a crush on Zeyang. If you had told me earlier, I would have given up on him. But what you

did has brought great embarrassment to me…”

Suddenly, her voice turned croaky and she seemed too grief-stricken to be able to finish the remaining part of her

sentence.

Su Ziyue’s eyes turned cold at once because it was obvious Su Yige was implying something with her words.

Instead of speaking right away, she only cast Su Yige a glance before turning to face Su Youcheng.

A trace of fury slowly emerged on Su Youcheng’s face when he noticed Su Ziyue’s indifference.

Su Yige was his granddaughter whom he had watched grow up and on whom he had pinned high hopes. At first, he

had assumed that nothing could ever go wrong with her engagement with Gong Zeyang and it had never occurred

to him that something like this could happen at the eleventh hour.

Su Youcheng stared at Su Ziyue and said to her in a tone which was not at all pleasant, “Ziyue, you have to be clear

that even though Zeyang is not going to marry Yige, he isn’t going to marry you either!”

This time, Su Ziyue understood the purpose of this meeting completely.

She was sure Su Youcheng was angry to learn that Su Yige’s engagement with Gong Zeyang had fallen through. So,

Su Yige was now trying to pin the blame on her.

She was trying to manipulate Su Youcheng into thinking that Su Ziyue was the culprit behind Gong Zeyang’s

decision to call off the engagement.

This way, Su Youcheng would surely take his anger out on Su Ziyue.

After analysing the entire matter, Su Ziyue only found it hilarious.

Su Yige was the sort of person who was always up to no good.

“Grandpa, I’m really confused by what you said. I’m married and I have a very close relationship with my husband.

I’m not interested to know whether Gong Zeyang is going to marry me or not nor have I ever thought about the

issue before.”

Su Ziyue made a forthright statement without trying to protect Su Youcheng’s ego.

Considering that she was already married, Su Youcheng, as her senior, had actually just told her that she would not

become some other man’s wife. Su Ziyue could not believe his grandfather had just said something as

inappropriate as that.

Su Youcheng’s face looked pale and sullen and he was left speechless in an instant.

“Ziyue, don’t you think you should come clean already at this juncture?”

Suddenly, Su Yige rose to her feet and confronted her with her face imbued with rage, “Do you dare say that you

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

have never met Zeyang at all during the time I was overseas? You’re the reason why Zeyang decided to call off the

engagement!”

Right after she made that allegation, she twisted her head to the other side and pretended as though she was

wiping her tears away. She was acting like a pathetic elder sister who had her fiancé snatched away by her younger

sister who was much loved by everyone else.

“I can’t say for sure that I did not meet him at all because it’s easy to bump into someone you know in a small city

like Yunzhou City. Also, don’t assume everyone is interested in the guy you fancy. I’ve told you before, you might see

him as a treasure but he’s nothing to me!”

Su Ziyue finished her statement loud and clear with an undaunted expression on her face.

She was not going to be made into her scapegoat that easily!

In her agitation, Su Yige let out a shrill shriek, “Su Ziyue!”

“That’s enough!” Suddenly, Su Youcheng yelled to stop the fight, and the way he looked at Su Yige turned

somewhat somber. “You couldn’t even watch your man well and you didn’t even discuss with us first before you

called off the engagement. Is there anything you aren’t brave enough to pull off?!” he condemned.

Su Youcheng had been away over the weekend and he had directly gone to bed after he returned home last night.

Coupled with the fact that the people at home had intentionally kept him in the dark, he had only learnt about the

matter when he reached the office this morning.

He immediately summoned Su Yige over to ask her about it. Tactfully, she told him that Gong Zeyang and Su Ziyue

had had an affair during the time she was overseas. That was what prompted Su Youcheng to ask Su Ziyue to be

here.

Frightened by Su Youcheng’s stern look, Su Yige mumbled, “Grandpa…”

Calling off the engagement had never been her intention but Gong Zeyang had compelled her into doing so by

threatening to expose her past involvement in drugs.

The Gong family and the Su family had been friends for many generations and had collaborated with each other in

business for years. She only dared to keep her decision to call off the engagement as a secret from Su Youcheng

because she did not think it would cause any dire consequences.

But now, it seemed like she was wrong.

Icily, Su Youcheng stared at her and said crossly, “The Su family won’t clean up your mess this time!”
