Chapter 37 - A glimpes into the past (1/2)
”Which corporate is it?”
”Its Hong Kong's biggest corporate; the Li...”
Before he could finish or Jing Lihua could think anything, Mei Xiu rushed to the room without a proper knock.
”President, pardon my manners. There is something important.” She looked pale. Her hands were trembling and she was heavily panting like she had run all the way here.
”What happened?” Jing Lihua was instantly alerted.
”The restaurant... the restaurant where President went with Mr. Mo. A man reported to me just now. All the chef crew was found dead in the restaurant kitchen.”
...
At the Mealor mansion.
A middle-aged man was going through an old album. In the photo, there were four people Yang Biyu, Su Donghai, Su Guozhi and Tang Yuyan. In all the photos, Tang Yuyan was in Su Gouzhi arms and one could easily discern with a little attentiveness that the couple shared a more than friendly relation. The photos belonged to their teen years. They all had smiles on their faces. One could tell they were all close friends and having the best time of their lives. There were their photos from their trips to Japan, Hong Kong, Huwai and Switzerland. In fact, there wasn't a single place they left.
Su Donghai turned to the next section. In this section, the tragedy started. The looks Yang Biyu gave to Su Gouzhi changed. Longing and envy appeared in her eyes. The four of them were still smiling but now, only the two of them had real smiles. Neither Su Donghai nor Yang Biyu's smiles were genuine. Yang Biyu looked longingly at Su Guozhi while Su Donghai looked longingly at Yang Biyu.
Su Donghai was disturbed by a call from his personal secretary.
”What happened?”
His secretary explained everything about the recent activities of his daughter, Su Lanfen. He also informed him how she failed to get the media and how the chefs were found dead in the restaurant. Even the CCTV recordings were cleared by Su Lanfen and there was an obvious evidence of that.
In the end, Su Donghai was furious.
”Send for Su Lanfen. Tell her to come and meet me right now!” That stupid girl! How dare she make such a big move without even consulting her father!
...
In the photographic studio.
After having countless shots, Su Lanfen opened her account in hopes to find more insults directed towards Jing Lihua. But she was stunned to find an entirely different reality. Her subscriber number had reduced to half and her account was filled with insults.
”@Su_Lanfen die you bitch!
”How dare you turn us against our prince! I'll personally come and kill you!”
”From now on I'll never buy any dress she wears. #Unsubscribe Su Lanfen”
”I used to be her devout fan but after finding her reality I'm truly stunned. How can I be so blind to follow such a disgusting liar my whole life? #Unsubscribe Su_Lanfen”
”Congratulations @Su_Lanfen you've successfully turned a devout fan to a devout hater. I'll make sure to curse you the rest of my entire life on this app.”
”I knew it. No one believed it. I've been following Jing Lihua activities for the last few days. She has a decent character. This bi*ch surely tried to frame Jing Lihua and Mo Liang.”
