At night, after they returned home, Su Ziyue asked Qin Muchen about Gu Hanyan. “Where did you send Gu Hanyan to?”
“I sent her back where she came from.” Qin Muchen glanced at her and gave her a vague answer.
Su Ziyue ran up to him and continued to ask, “Did you send her back to Europe?”
“Yes.”
Qin Yuchuan had thought of many ways to torture Gu Hanyan, so he naturally had to send her back for her to ‘enjoy’ her trip. Since Su Ziyue had brought this up, Qin Muchen felt that it was time to call up his grandfather to find out how things were going. Thinking of this, Qin Muchen glanced at Su Ziyue and suddenly thought of something. Then, he carefully inquired, “Why are you suddenly asking about her?”
“No reason. No matter what, she is a public figure. It’s inevitable that there will be questions about why she has been out of sight for so long,” Su Ziyue calmly replied.
Hearing this, Qin Muchen looked at Su Ziyue intently. When he saw that there wasn’t anything strange in her expression, he was relieved.
The next day, after Su Ziyue arrived at the company and turned on her computer, she saw a news page popped up. ‘Gu Hanyan, the famous international pop star, has announced her retirement.’
For some reason, Su Ziyue clicked on the news. She had just asked Qin Muchen about Gu Hanyan yesterday. Now, news about Gu Hanyan’s retirement appeared. It was too much of a coincidence.
Meanwhile, at LK Group, Qin Muchen read about the news too. However, unlike Su Ziyue, he closed it immediately without a further look. After all, he was the one behind the spreading of the story. Gu Hanyan had publicly announced before that Su Ziyue was a good friend of hers, so if Gu Hanyan disappears, the media would certainly pester Su Ziyue. It was better to circulate this information to the media rather than letting them play a guessing game.
Su Ziyue scrolled through it and noticed that there were already tens of thousands of comments below. It was enough to prove that Gu Hanyan was indeed famous. Most of the comments expressed pity; some said that it happened so sudden that they found it hard to accept, while some wondered whether she retired because of some unknown personal reasons.
Su Ziyue raised her eyebrows and sneered. They’re right. There are indeed personal reasons behind her retirement. It’s just that the personal reasons are not appropriate to be published. Su Ziyue didn’t care about Gu Hanyan’s reputation. She just didn’t want to expose her wounds for the public to see. She quickly closed the webpage and focused her attention on the Su Group.
Su Ziyue sorted out the things that Xu Lisha gave her and added in some of the evidence she found from her investigation. With that, she decided to meet up with Su Yuanming.
The information that she now possessed was enough to completely ruin Su Yuanming for life. However, it was not sufficient for her to destroy his life alone. That afternoon, she found Su Yuanming at a restaurant near the Su Tower. When Su Yuanming looked up and saw Su Ziyue, his expression immediately changed. “Why are you here?”
“Of course it’s because I have something to discuss with you.” Su Ziyue smiled and sat opposite him.
“What is it?” Su Yuanming looked at Su Ziyue vigilantly. He held onto his arms that was still in a cast as he looked really alert. After all, he could still vividly remember how Qin Muchen broke his arm. Furthermore, Su Ziyue had returned to the Su Residence and uttered those ugly words. His intuition was telling him that the reason Su Ziyue came to meet him was not a good sign.
To his surprise, Su Ziyue said, “Of course it’s a good thing. It’ll benefit you.”
“I have nothing to say and I have nothing to discuss with you.” Su Yuanming wasn’t interested to hear what she had in mind at all. He got up to leave but he was stopped by Su Ziyue.
“Uncle Yuanming, don’t be in such a hurry to leave. Why don’t you have a look at what I brought?” As Su Ziyue spoke, she slowly pulled out a thick stack of documents from her bag.
Su Yuanming instantly felt his heart tightened. What is that?
“Take a look, Uncle Yuanming.” Su Ziyue emphasized the last word and the smile on her face looked creepy. When Su Yuanming saw Su Ziyue’s smile, he felt a shiver down his spine. He really was afraid of Su Ziyue. However, looking at her expression, he couldn’t help but wonder what she wanted to show him. He sat back down and looked at Su Ziyue alertly as he reached out to grab for the documents.
He turned the first page and didn’t think much of it but after he flipped through the second and third page, he immediately closed the file. Then, with a shocked expression, he looked at Su Ziyue and asked, “Where did you get this?”
“You shouldn’t be worried where these things came from. Instead, you should find a way to get rid of it.” Su Ziyue grinned as she looked at Su Yuanming.
Hearing this, Su Yuanming realized that she had a motive, so he asked, “What do you want? Are you planning to send me to jail?”
“Why would I? No matter what, we both share the same last name. How could I ever do that to you? You are my uncle.” Even though the smile on Su Ziyue’s face remained, her heart was piercing cold. My father was also a member of the Su Family. He was Su Yuanming’s elder brother and Su Youcheng’s son. But how did they treat him? None of them deserve my mercy and sympathy.
Su Yuanming looked at Su Ziyue dubiously. Even though he didn’t really believe her, he secretly let out a sigh of relief. “It’s great that you think that way. About my brother… We all feel sorry, but there’s nothing we can do.” After Su Yuanming finished speaking, he sighed.
Su Ziyue had a faint smile on her face as she took the documents from him. Then, she slowly said, “My request is really simple. As long as you transfer all the shares belonging to Su Yige, Liu Zipei and you to me, I won’t hand these documents over to the authorities.”
Su Yuanming was completely dumbfounded and he roared, “What did you say?”
“After you’re done considering it, give me your shares as an exchange for the documents that I have.” Su Ziyue picked up the documents and waved it at Su Yuanming. Then, as if she suddenly remembered something, she added, “I forgot to tell you that I have more than these. If you want to see them, I can ask my subordinate to make a copy for you to have a look. All you have to do is transfer your shares to me in exchange for these evidence that will ruin your future. No matter how you look at it, it is a great deal.” The grin on Su Ziyue’s face widened.
Hearing this, Su Yuanming was so angry that his face turned red and his breath was short. He yelled, “Stop dreaming! I will never transfer my shares to you!”
“I won’t take it for free. I can buy it from you.” However, the price was not up to Su Yuanming to decide. She definitely wouldn’t purchase it at the market price.
After hearing what she said, a joyful expression appeared on his face. In a tentative tone, he asked, “How much money do you have?”
