Did Chapter 212 offend someone?
The Su family's current scale is entirely due to the exceptional skills of its current leader; otherwise, how could they have secured a share of the pie in the complex and multifaceted capital city?
However, the key reason why the Su family has been able to stand strong to this day is Su Xiangyu himself. Although his children are one unruly and the other cunning and vicious, he, as their father, has a rare and excellent reputation in the industry.
Su Xiangyu glanced at Qiao Lan, then at Bai Mengyan.
"Speak up, what exactly happened!" Su Xiangyu shouted.
Bai Mengyan's body jolted violently. She didn't dare to look up, her mind racing as she tried to figure out how to appease Su Xiangyu.
A moment later, under Su Xiangyu's persistent questioning, Bai Mengyan slowly raised her head.
“Dad, Yun Xinru and I are classmates. I couldn’t bear to see them homeless, so I kindly took them in. But now Yun Xinru has been arrested for suspected murder, and her mother, the woman on the ground, has come to beg me for help. Mengyan remembers your teachings and will not do anything illegal.”
"But when she realized things weren't going well, she got a little angry and actually attacked me. Dad, look, this is the evidence that she tried to hurt me." Bai Mengyan stretched out her left arm, which was behind her back, and it was covered with bloody scratches.
When Su Xiangyu saw that Bai Mengyan was injured, all his anger turned into heartache.
"Take her away and keep a close eye on her, make sure she doesn't cause any more trouble." With that, Su Xiangyu pulled Bai Mengyan to sit down on the sofa.
"You've really suffered. From now on, leave these kinds of things to the police. We have no right to punish anyone." Su Xiangyu looked at Bai Mengyan with heartache and a hint of apology.
"I'm sorry, Dad misunderstood you. Does it still hurt?" Su Xiangyu raised his hand and gently stroked Bai Mengyan's already swollen cheek.
Bai Mengyan's eyes immediately reddened, and tears welled up in them.
"It's okay, I'm not in pain."
Bai Mengyan's strength and understanding made Su Xiangyu feel even more guilty. When he saw the bloody marks on her arm, he quickly spoke up.
"I'll go get the first-aid kit."
After Su Xiangyu left, Bai Mengyan's obedient expression vanished instantly. She glanced at the bodyguard who was helping Qiao Lan up and gave him a meaningful look.
Although her father's return saved the old woman from disaster, it did not mean she was truly saved.
The bodyguard understood and nodded in acceptance.
Bai Mengyan glanced down at her other hand; beneath the red fingernails, traces of blood and skin tissue were still faintly visible…
Su Xiangyu is good in every way, but he has one flaw: he spoils his daughter too much. If anything happens to Bai Mengyan, it will definitely cause turmoil in the capital.
Bai Mengyan looked at the person carefully applying medicine to her, her eyes darkening slightly.
"Dad, it's just a minor injury, it's nothing."
Su Xiangyu didn't speak, but his hands kept moving.
……
Yun Jianghai was waiting at the entrance of the Su family villa. Qiao Lan had been inside for over an hour, so why hadn't she come out yet?
He couldn't hold back any longer and was about to get out of the car when he suddenly saw the Su family's gate open, and Qiao Lan, who was covered in blood, was dragged out by two big men.
Yun Jianghai's eyes widened in fury. He, who was usually as timid as a mouse, had long forgotten what fear was and rushed out of the car.
"Wenwen, what's wrong? What's wrong?" Yun Jianghai rushed to Qiao Lan, but was at a loss for what to do.
Upon seeing this, the bodyguard threw Qiao Lan to the ground.
Yun Jianghai hurriedly picked her up and awkwardly tidied Qiao Lan's sticky hair.
"Wenwen, what happened?! Wenwen, don't be afraid, I'll take you to the hospital right away!"
Qiao Lanqiang took a deep breath and managed to utter a few words with difficulty.
"Jiang Hai, run...run, run!"
Yun Jianghai heard what she said, but when he looked up in panic, he was met with two burly bodyguards.
"You...what are you going to do?"
But all he got in return was a blow to the head.
Yun Jianghai and his wife fell to the ground until they were taken away in a van.
……
When only Su Xiangyu and Bai Mengyan were left at home, Su Xiangyu suddenly spoke up.
"Mengyan, have you offended someone recently?"
Bai Mengyan's heart skipped a beat, but she pretended to be calm.
"No, Dad, why are you suddenly asking that?"
Su Xiangyu sighed, looking as if he had aged more than ten years in an instant.
“Just recently, all of the Su family’s businesses have been attacked by an unknown force. Our Su family has been targeted.” Su Xiangyu shook his head.
For some reason, the first thought that popped into Bai Mengyan's mind was Yun Yao. All of this was done by that bitch Yun Yao!
However, she didn't dare tell Su Xiangyu.
"Dad, could it just be normal business competition?" Bai Mengyan asked.
Su Xiangyu immediately denied it: "This targeting is too obvious, it's like a fight to the death. That's why I thought I'd go home and ask you two siblings if you've offended anyone outside."
Bai Mengyan pretended to think about it seriously for a moment, then shook her head.
"Dad, no, you know me, how could I easily offend anyone? It's my brother who's never home, I don't know what he's doing. He's such a grown man, he doesn't even know to go to the company and learn some business skills from you, so he can help you in the future."
When Su Feng was mentioned, Su Xiangyu's face darkened.
"Hmph, that brat, call him down here!" Su Xiangyu said, exasperated.
Bai Mengyan was very obedient; as soon as she heard Su Xiangyu speak, she immediately stood up.
"Dad, please wait a moment, I'll go and call my brother down."
Ever since Su Xiangyu returned, the music in Su Feng's headphones had stopped. He was constantly listening to the sounds outside, and when there was a knock on his door, Su Feng's brows showed impatience.
Bai Mengyan knocked three times, and seeing no one answer, she gave up on the pretense and simply pushed the door open and entered.
Seeing that Su Feng had his back to her, Bai Mengyan walked up to him, took off the earphones from his ears, and threw them on the table.
"Su Feng, Dad is calling you."
Su Feng glanced at Bai Mengyan, a look of disgust flashing in his eyes. When he saw the bandage on her arm, he couldn't help but sneer.
"He has enough of you as his daughter, why would he need me?"
Bai Mengyan was too lazy to waste words with him and looked at him coldly.
"Su Feng, you don't need to joke around with me here. Let me tell you, you need to know what you should and shouldn't say when we go downstairs later, otherwise, don't blame me for breaking my word," Bai Mengyan threatened arbitrarily.
Su Feng was used to her behavior and didn't want to respond. He glanced at her and walked right past her.
When Su Xiangyu saw Su Feng, he was even more furious.
"Su Feng, what is this?" Su Xiangyu shouted angrily, pointing at the obsidian earring on Su Feng's left ear.
“Earrings.” He answered crisply.
Su Feng was very handsome, and one could vaguely see the resemblance between Su Xiangyu and Su Feng when he was young in his eyes and brows.
But this son, who looked exactly like him, left Su Xiangyu utterly disappointed.
