Chapter 32
Su Lun and Uncle Chen stood downstairs as they watched Su Huiqing go up the spiral staircase to her room.
The hem of her school uniform swayed in an arc as she moved. Whenever she set aside that lazy attitude of hers, she needed no flowery words for her presence was enough to dominate the entire place.
“What’s wrong?” Su Ruohua came from outside, and she saw both of them rooted to the ground.
Uncle Chen was the first to snap back to his senses. When he saw Su Ruohua, he poured her a cup of coffee.
Su Ruohua took the cup of coffee and sat on the sofa while staring at Su Lun.
“Qingqing changed a lot.” Su Lun was very emotional and told the whole incident regarding the Yu Family. “She even said that the Su Family will be part of the International Association one day!”
When she heard the last sentence, Su Ruohua placed the teacup down and laughed. “Joining the International Association isn’t easy. This brat boasts without shame!”
Qu Yan had plans to show her resolve, but she never expected that Su Huiqing would agree to that quick. “Why… did you…”
“Your eyes.” Su Huiqing crossed her arms and leaned back on her chair. “A person’s eyes do not lie. I saw the resolve in your eyes.”
“Then let’s go and pick a suitable book for me in the library…” Qu Yan’s eyes lit up and pulled Su Huiqing’s sleeve as she wanted to leave.
But Su Huiqing raised her brow and took out a chemistry book from a messy bunch of books on her table.
She threw it on the table, and she said, “Copy notes.”
“I knew it would end up like this.” Qu Yan touched her nose, and she muttered, “Yu Xiangyang didn’t come to school for the last three days. Could it be that he already took it to the next level…”
Yu Xiangyang indeed did not come to school for three days.
Su Huiqing figured that he had to rush out another batch of medicinal herbs.
“Big sister.” After school, Su Huiqing was leisurely walking out of the school gate with both hands in her pockets when she heard someone calling out behind her. It was Shen Anan.
“I knew you wouldn’t ignore me.” Shen Anan quickened her steps and walked to Su Huiqing’s front. She then spoke in a voice that only they could hear. “I just want to tell you that it is useless for your mom to look for brother Mingxi. I will never let the Su Family be involved in this project.”
With that, as though nothing happened, Shen Anan left.
Su Huiqing had no change in expression and merely called Uncle Chen. “Where is my mom?”
“Young Missy, please return home first…” Uncle Chen said in a respectful tone.
“Where is my mom?” she repeated.

Zhang Corporation Office.
Zhang Mingxi poured a cup of tea for Su Ruohua. “Auntie Su, my parents are currently not around since they are away for a collaboration project discussion. But since my dad is gradually transferring the Zhang Corporation over to me, I have the authority to handle this matter. I will be engaged to Anan soon, too, Regarding the matter of the Su Family bullying her, Anan will not pursue it out of goodwill. Hence, I will not bring down the Su Family with our business in Green City, and will only withdraw all of our collaborative projects. But didn’t Miss Su look down on our Project S? Collaborating with us once more will only be possible if Miss Su releases a public apology to Anan.”
