If only he had started working at Shengshi from the very beginning! Su Yuze's straightforward behavior really appealed to him. He was as open and aboveboard as could be, unlike the people at the Su Corporation. It used to be okay, but in the past two years, it had felt like a den of corruption. The chairman even asked him to steal confidential documents just to frame the general manager!
Oh... It was truly insane!
After finishing his conversation with Xu Liang, Su Yuze left the hospital.
Su Kaiming must be overjoyed to hear that Xu Liang was dead, right?
...
Su Kaiming was indeed very happy. After learning of Xu Liang's death, he finally let out a long sigh of relief. However, being a naturally suspicious man, he still wasn't completely at ease and sent someone to investigate further.
It was said that a young man in his thirties had indeed died in the hospital and was sent to the autopsy room the next day.
"Haha, Yuze must be feeling very disappointed, right?" Su Kaiming murmured to himself. Fortunately, he had sent someone to follow Xu Liang; otherwise, he wouldn't be feeling so relaxed now.
"Hubby, you seem to be in a great mood." Liu Rulan walked over from behind, carrying a cup of coffee and placing it beside Su Kaiming. "What's going on? Can you tell me?"
Su Kaiming was in a very good mood. He took a small sip of his coffee first and then said, "Do you still remember that employee I found before, Xu Liang?"
Liu Rulan nodded. "Yes, I remember. Didn't you send him to Australia?"
"Yes, he went to Australia... But for some reason, he suddenly came back to the country. He was captured and brought back by Yuze!" Su Kaiming snorted softly when he said this.
"Ah?" Liu Rulan was startled. "What should we do then?" Xu Liang was the key witness. If he was taken away by Su Yuze and used against them, it would be over!
"Fortunately, I noticed in time and had him silenced!" Su Kaiming said proudly. "Otherwise, I don't know what trouble Su Yuze would have caused!"
Liu Rulan frowned. Although she didn't quite agree with Su Kaiming's approach, there was nothing else they could do now! "That's good. As long as Yuze doesn't threaten us anymore." Liu Rulan sighed. "Meimei has returned to her previous state because of Su Yuze."
Come to think of it, Meimei was really pitiful. She had done nothing wrong, yet she was threatened by Su Yuze like that. Su Meimei had just managed to recover, but now she was back to washing her mouth constantly every day and refused to go out.
Yuze had gone too far!
"Moreover, that's not all!" Su Kaiming looked at the computer in front of him. "See?"
Liu Rulan leaned over to take a look. "Ah, the stock market..." The stock price of Shengshi was falling. This was undoubtedly the best news for the Su Corporation. Now, let's see how Yuze could turn things around! The old man should have nothing to say either!
Liu Rulan happily walked out of the room. She was going to tell Hongyu and Meimei this good news!
On the other hand
Although Su Yue was no longer in office, he still kept an eye on the developments of the Su Corporation and Shengshi. So, he also learned about the falling stock price of Shengshi and was immediately surprised. It must be Big Brother's doing. Sure enough... Shengshi still couldn't compete with the Su Corporation, right?
"Hubby, did you see the stock price of Shengshi? It's been continuously falling!" Qian Yingnan also learned this news.
"Um..."
"Will Yuze... lose?" Qian Yingnan asked.
"I don't know." He really didn't know. "I'll make a phone call to ask about the situation on his side."
"Okay."
Su Yue dialed Su Yuze's phone number. "Hello? Yuze, um... How have you been lately?"
"Don't bother worrying about me, Second Uncle."
"I, I heard that the stock situation of Shengshi is not very good." Su Yue said. "Is there anything I can do to help?" He knew quite a few people. If there was a need, he would definitely help Yuze.
Su Yuze just gave a soft laugh and said, "No need."
"But, you..." Before he could finish his sentence, he heard the beeping sound of the phone being hung up. "Hello?"
Qian Yingnan watched Su Yue's every move. Seeing him put down the phone, she quickly asked, "What did he say?"
"He said he didn't need my help." Su Yue frowned tightly. "Could it be that... he's just going to give up?"
If that was the case, it would be terrible!
...
Seeing Su Yuze hang up the phone after only a few words, Su Rou guessed who had called. "Was it from the Su family?"
"Yeah."
Su Rou shrugged. "Was it Su Kaiming?"
"It was Second Uncle."
It was Su Yue... "Huh? What did he want from you?"
"Um... It was about the stock situation." Su Yue was constantly monitoring the Su Corporation and Shengshi, probably looking for any opportunity to take advantage.
"He's so annoying." He was like a peeping tom. Su Rou lay on the sofa, feeling quite speechless. Didn't Su Yue get tired of doing this? She felt tired just watching!
"This matter will soon come to an end." He kissed Su Rou's forehead. The net had been cast wide enough, and it was time to close it.
Now, they just had to wait for Xu Liang's injury to heal enough for him to testify in court.
One week later
Su Kaiming received a subpoena from the court. When he first received it, he was stunned for a moment, wondering if someone had sent it to the wrong address or misspelled the name. What had he done? Why was he being summoned to court?
"Hubby, what's this?" When Liu Rulan saw the subpoena, her face also changed. Her first reaction was, "Who have we offended?"
"It's Yuze!" Su Kaiming said.
"Yuze..." Liu Rulan thought for a while and immediately understood. It seemed that Su Yuze was finally making his move. But... "Wasn't Xu Liang already dead? What evidence does he have to testify against us?"
Su Kaiming stroked his chin. "I'm also wondering about that..." Logically speaking, Xu Liang should have been the primary witness. Once he was dead, this lawsuit should have been completely useless!
"What's going on?"
"Could it be... that he has some other evidence?" But... he had been very careful and covered his tracks well.
Liu Rulan was also completely puzzled. "Do you think Yuze is just trying to scare us?"
"..."
"Think about it. Since you sent someone to get rid of Xu Liang, you must have angered Yuze. Maybe he's just going to break the pot and smash it, and go down with the Su Corporation together?" Liu Rulan speculated.
Go down together? "No, Yuze won't do that." Su Yuze was a very meticulous person. How could he do something so irrational? Besides, if Shengshi and the Su Corporation had a head-on confrontation, what good would it do him? In the end, it would just benefit others!
"Then what on earth does he want?" Liu Rulan asked impatiently.
"I don't know... We'll find out when we go to court!" He also wanted to see how Su Yuze could turn the situation around without Xu Liang as a witness.
