Marry Me Quick

Chapter 165

Su Ziyue didn’t look for Su Youcheng immediately. Instead, she went to the secretary office first.

After glancing around the secretary office for a while, she fixed her gaze on Su Youcheng’s Chief Secretary.

The secretary saw Su Ziyue too and said, “Director Su.”

Su Ziyue smiled at him with her lips pursed, being polite without being too humble. She then asked, “When do you

usually prepare tea for the Chairman?”

“I was about to prepare some new tea and send it over to him now.” The Chief Secretary replied honestly after

understanding what Su Ziyue was hinting at.

After all, Miss Yige always did this when she used to work here before.

Lots of people had tried to fawn over the old Chairman, but she wouldn’t always do every one of them a favor.

However, Su Ziyue was the current Project Director of the company and Su Youcheng’s biological granddaughter

too.

Even though she didn’t get along with Su Youcheng very well and some people had even bad mouthed her behind

her back, the secretary thought it was too early to jump to a conclusion about who the old Chairman favored the

most—Miss Yige or Miss Ziyue. Therefore, she decided to do Su Ziyue a favor, indirectly doing herself a favor as

well.

…

After preparing some new tea, Su Ziyue walked to the front of Su Youcheng’s office and knocked on the office door

carefully.

After a while, Su Youcheng’s autocratic voice was heard from inside of the office. “Come in.”

Su Ziyue struggled to hold the tray with one hand while using another to open the door. After entering the office

and closing the door, she held the tray with both hands again.

Su Youcheng was sitting in front of his office table, reading his documents with a pair of reading glasses placed over

his nose. He looked very serious.

Su Ziyue strode across the room quietly and put down the teapot carefully without making any noise. Then, she

took the cold tea beside him and changed it with the freshly brewed pot of tea.

As Su Ziyue switched out the tea, Su Youcheng turned around and looked at her, not surprised by the fact that his

granddaughter was here at all. He raised his eyebrows and asked, “What brings you here, Ziyue?”

“I had a little accident two days ago, but it’s nothing serious. However, the doctor insisted that I should stay and

rest at home for two days. I was also worried that there’ll be some problems which might affect my work later, so I

decided to apply for a two-day leave anyway. Since the company is going to get very busy after this, I thought I’d

come and have a look at you. Grandpa, you have to take care of yourself no matter how busy you are.”

Su Ziyue didn’t mention anything about Su Yuanming bothering her during the meeting just now; she knew Su

Youcheng would not care about petty things like this. Rather, he would only think she was being whiny and

troublesome. Besides, there was another better way to get back at Su Yuanming right in front of her now.

Upon hearing that, Su Youcheng narrowed his eyes and stared at Su Ziyue for a few seconds before he said, “It’s

very nice of you to say that.”

For some unknown reason, his reaction automatically reminded Su Ziyue of Qin Muchen.

He liked to narrow his eyes whenever he was angry or contemplating people, which made people unable to see

through his feelings clearly. That way, it would be very difficult to figure out what he was thinking about, not to

mention making people feel scared and nervous at the same time.

“This is something that I should do anyway.” Su Ziyue sounded earnest.

Su Youcheng spent his entire life working in Su Group; members of the Su Family were used to his unhealthy habit

of forgetting about everything once he buried himself in his work. So, as time passed by, fewer people would

remind him to take care of his health anymore.

Su Youcheng was slightly touched when he heard Su Ziyue’s words of concern now.

Therefore, his expression grew gentler. “Take a seat. You can just say anything that’s on your mind.”

Su Ziyue sat down with a faint smile across her face. She couldn’t tell whether Su Youcheng’s gentle demeanor was

genuine or just a pretense.

“Grandpa, I heard that you’ve been worried about the company’s business deals these two days. If you need my

help on it, don’t hesitate to ask. After all, we’re family…” Family my foot!

Indeed, she used to treat them like family when she was little. However, once she grew up and understood them,

she didn’t treat them like family anymore.

Perhaps it was because of Su Ziyue’s flatteries which managed to win Su Youcheng’s favor, he just frowned when

he heard that. He started his endless complaints as if he had found a listener who was willing to listen to him.

He even told Su Ziyue about everything that happened to Su Yuanming recently. Lastly, he said, “I’m old, and I can’t

work like how I used to anymore. I don’t seem to have the energy to work on certain matters anymore—unlike

when I was young.”

“Grandpa, the whole company depends on you. You’re responsible for making important decisions in the company.

As long as you take good care of yourself, I’m sure the Su Group will prosper greatly.”

Using a serious and earnest tone, Su Ziyue flattered Su Youcheng with exaggerated compliments and praises over

and over again. Everybody liked flatteries, including Su Youcheng; he had been working in the business world for his

entire life and achieved great success and fame in it.

Su Youcheng shook his head. “Don’t say these kinds of beautiful but meaningless things either. All that matters is

that you can get everything done and get more business deals for the company.”

Su Ziyue knew that he had agreed to it. So, she thanked him immediately and said, “Thank you, Grandpa.”

“Go then.”

…

Su Ziyue went out of Su Youcheng’s office full of satisfaction. She didn’t expect it would be so easy to persuade Su

Youcheng.

If she had known this since the beginning, she would have found out where her father was imprisoned a long time

ago.

Su Ziyue’s face became gloomy at the thought of her father.

There was still no news from Qin Muchen. She had investigated this in secret too, but she found nothing about the

matter as well. Since it happened a long time ago, she didn’t know where to start investigating.

Besides, she was equally clueless about who requested for her to take over those business deals mishandled by Su

Yuanming. Not long after she went back to her office, Su Yuanming came looking for her.

After all the incidents that happened recently, Su Yuanming and Su Ziyue could no longer get along well with each

other anymore.

“Do you really think the old man assigned those cases to you just because he trusts your ability? Stop dreaming! He

just wants to know whether they really want to go against the Su Group or if they just want to mess with me alone.”

As Su Yuanming finished, a look of mockery crossed his face as he smirked, looking as though he was waiting for Su

Ziyue to get upset.

However, Su Ziyue merely glanced at him and leaned backward leisurely. She sounded relaxed as she said, “Oh,

really? I thought I’d take this opportunity to let Grandpa see my true potential clearly.”

“You…” Su Yuanming attempted to mock Su Ziyue in the first place, but he failed to do so. Moreover, he was

insulted by Su Ziyue instead. He snorted and said coldly, “Young people should be more modest.”

“Yes, Vice President Su, you’re right. However, I think one should be even more modest when one gets older. I

suppose the staff in the company won’t think you came to look for me now just to share your information with me

regarding those cases you handled before.”

As Su Ziyue finished, she held her chin up high in the air with a perfect smile on her face.

Everyone noticed Su Yuanming’s odd behavior during the past few days. He came to look for Su Ziyue just after the

latter went to find Su Youcheng and asked him to let her take over the cases ruined by Su Yuanming.

Supposedly, most of the people would think that Su Yuanming had come to mess with Su Ziyue.

Su Ziyue felt like she had found Su Yuanming’s weak spot.

Like a person who walked on eggshells, he was in constant worry that Su Youcheng no longer favored him and

would not entrust the company to him anymore.

Su Yuanming froze in shock when he heard that. His face became grim as he said, “Bear in mind that this is the Su

Group!”

“Not only have I always remembered this is the Su Group, I will always remember that I’m part of the Su Family as

well.” This meant that as long as she was part of the Su Family, the Su Group belonged to her as well.

Even though she already had one part of the company share which had been left by her father, she could obtain

another additional part of the share as long as Su Youcheng was willing to give her another part.

Evidently, Su Yuanming thought about the same thing as she did. His face became dark and gloomy. Then, as if

something had flashed through his mind, he burst out laughing all of a sudden. He commented enigmatically, “Very

competent, like your father.”
