Chapter 2 Selling oneself for glory, you have the nerve

  • "What's your attitude? I am your elder, and you dare to speak to me like this?"
  • Bai Mei rushed over in one stride, grabbing Su Yi's luggage handle, preventing her from going upstairs.
  • Su Yi used her body to protect the suitcase, gently turned around, and bumped Bai Mei to the side with her shoulder. "The first one to provoke is the cheap one. If a dog barks at me, do I still need to give it a good face?"
  • Bai Mei was stunned for a moment, snatched the broom from the servant's hand, and swung it towards Su Yi. "You ungrateful person, I'll teach you to disrespect your elders..."
  • She exerted all her strength, but the broom did not hit Su Yi. No one saw how she moved, but in an instant, Su Yi appeared behind Bai Mei. She lifted her right foot and kicked her hard on the buttocks. Bai Mei lost her balance and fell forward, hitting her forehead on the corner of the stairs.
  • Thinking of Bai Mei's previous actions towards her, Su Yi felt no resentment. She picked up the broom from the ground and fiercely whipped Bai Mei who was lying on the ground.
  • "Ah ah ah... she's trying to kill me, help!"
  • Bai Mei screamed in pain, touched her forehead, and saw blood all over her hands. She howled at the servants who were watching, "Are you all blind? You're indifferent to this wicked person beating me... someone, bring justice, watch me kill this wicked person..."
  • The servants received the order and chaos ensued. Some grabbed ropes, some helped Bai Mei, and some caught Su Yi.
  • As the chaos escalated, the sound of a car horn came from the courtyard. In no time, Su Qiushan walked in with a stern face.
  • "What are you all doing? Fighting as soon as you meet, can't you let me have a few peaceful days?"
  • Seeing her backer had arrived, Bai Mei broke free from the servant's hand that was applying medicine to her and ran over, crying, "Master, look at Su Yi, she wants to kill me!"
  • Su Qiushan looked at the bleeding wound on Bai Mei and felt distressed. "Su Yi, you've gone too far!"
  • Su Yi snorted coldly. "I can go even further. Do you want to see?"
  • The expected storm did not come crashing down on her as Su Qiushan casually scolded Su Yi a few times and turned the page on the matter.
  • "Su Yi, come with me to the study!"
  • Su Yi lightly tugged at the corner of her lips. She knew things wouldn't be that simple.
  • Sure enough, when they entered the study, Su Qiushan got straight to the point. "You came back just in time. I am discussing a marriage alliance with the Song family. Prepare yourself in the next few days, and you will marry into their family at the beginning of next month!"
  • "You want me to marry Song Xin?!"
  • Song Xin was a notorious playboy in Jiangcheng. Relying on his family's wealth, he did all sorts of evil deeds and was constantly involved in scandals.
  • "What's wrong with Young Master Song? His family is powerful, he doesn't look ugly, and if you marry him, you won't have to worry about food and clothing. Give birth to a son and a daughter for him in a couple of years, and you will be the hero of the Song family. By then, you will be the most glamorous woman in Jiangcheng, able to command the wind and rain!"
  • After five years, Su Yi thought that Su Qiushan would show some fatherly affection and treat her better. After all, it wasn't her who betrayed him, it was An Ran. But in the end, she was wrong. Su Qiushan was willing to sell his own daughter for the sake of reviving the family business. He never saw her as his daughter.
  • Su Yi looked at Su Qiushan coldly. "If Song Xin is so good, why don't you let your precious Su Qingqing marry him? I heard that he pursued her before. Su Qingqing would definitely be more pleasing to him than me!"
  • "Qingqing... what are you talking about? I am considering your future. An Ran ran away, and you can't stay in the Li family anymore. Li Shengjue still hates you... "
  • "I won't marry Song Xin. You better give up on that idea!" Su Yi had intended to stay and take care of her grandfather, but now it seemed unnecessary.
  • Su Yi picked up her luggage and walked out. Unexpectedly, she bumped into Bai Mei, who was eavesdropping outside.
  • She glared at her and Bai Mei shouted, "Master, you saw everything, right? She doesn't even listen to your words anymore. It's a good thing you wanted to bring her back and take care of her. This kind of ungrateful person should die outside!"
  • "You stop right there!"
  • Su Qiushan chased after Su Yi, but instead of stopping, Su Yi walked even faster. She didn't want to stay in this family for another second.
  • "If you dare to walk out of this house today, never come back. Consider me, Su Qiushan, as if I never had a daughter like you!"
  • Su Yi turned around with her luggage, her eyes filled with coldness. "From the moment you poured hot water on me, you were no longer my father!"
  • "You... unfilial child, unfilial child..."
  • After leaving the Su family, Su Yi took a moment to calm down. She regretted entering that house in the first place, as it only brought her frustration.
  • She bought a bottle of water from a small supermarket on the side of the road, drank half of it, and called Cen Nian. "Help me find a place to stay!"
  • Cen Nian chuckled. "You have billions in your pocket, can't you stay in a hotel? Why bother me with such a small matter?"
  • "I'm taking care of your business. Don't be ungrateful!"
  • "I dare not do your business, or else AK will kill me... I'm busy with a big deal recently, I don't have time to personally handle your trivial matters... give me an address, and I'll send someone to pick you up and show you the house!"
  • As soon as she heard about a big deal, Su Yi became interested. She licked her lips and asked, "What business can I participate in?"
  • "The Gu family in Jiangbei lost their daughter twenty-four years ago. They recently sent a secret letter to the global detective organization. Whoever finds their daughter will receive a reward of one billion US dollars!"
  • "The reward is not bad, but I'm not good at finding people. Forget it, I won't compete with you for this business... By the way, how is the arrangement for the play that you're helping me with?"
  • "It's already arranged. You can join the crew at any time. But I think it's unnecessary. Who has the ability to uncover your identity? Disguise is your strong suit!"
  • "I have my reasons for doing this. Don't worry about it!"
  • "Excuse me, are you Miss Su? Mr. Cen sent me to pick you up and show you the house!"
  • Before she could finish her sentence, Cen Nian's person had arrived. Su Yi instinctively looked at the person and said to Cen Nian on the phone, "Your person is here, I'll hang up... Remember to send the medicine to Master on time. He relies on it to stay alive, so it must not be interrupted!"
