58: Chapter 58 Selling a Cliffhanger 58: Chapter 58 Selling a Cliffhanger “You!” Su Yukan’s face turned even darker with anger.

He took a deep breath and, despite not raising his voice like he had earlier, the content of his speech wasn’t any less offensive.

“Su Lu, don’t you forget, after all, it was the Su Family that raised you.

Even if there was no birth favor, there was upbringing favor.

All these years, your life hasn’t been too bad, and it’s said that one shouldn’t forget those who dug the well from which they drink.

Don’t be ungrateful.”

“How could I dare?” Su Lu tossed her popsicle stick into the trash can by the elevator entrance, “It’s precisely because I haven’t dared to forget even for a moment that I’ve been invested for so many years.”

She looked steadily into Su Yukan’s eyes, “I have no say in matters concerning Su Zhe.

When you as a father have no say, what can I say?”

Su Yukan opened his mouth, his expression awkward.

“As for the rest, I, Su Lu, am not capable.

I can’t handle big business deals, can’t achieve great things, and can’t be of any help.”

Having said that, the elevator arrived just in time, and she stepped inside, “Instead of cursing and swearing at me all the time, you might as well think of some other solution.”

When Su Lu returned to the office, Xu Ning noticed that she was in a foul mood.

Xu Ning was surprised, “What happened?

Is it…

off?

Didn’t the negotiation succeed?”

Su Lu sighed, “It’s not off.”

Xu Ning breathed a sigh of relief, “Well, that’s good.

You scared me there; I thought the deal had fallen through.

With the look you’re carrying…

it’s as if you carry a grudge.”

Su Lu glanced at her with half-lifted eyelids, “Su Yukan was blocking me in the lobby.”

“Oh my,” Xu Ning covered her eyes with her hand, “Then it’s no wonder you’re carrying this grudge, but…”

Xu Ning snickered with relief, “He actually didn’t come upstairs to bother me, choosing instead to catch the king by blocking you directly.

Why do I suddenly feel a little relieved?”

“And why do I suddenly not feel like giving you a bonus?” said Su Lu.

Xu Ning, rubbing her hands together in a pleading gesture, grinned and exited.
