Chapter 2 (2/2)
Not too long after, the original lost his mother's company under the female lead's plan and the big family property became that of the female lead.
Although it seems impressive, but it was only merely enough to be made into a wedding dress.
Of course, under what can be called the female lead's extraordinary experience, this is only the beginning.
Not only Su Zui, the entire Su family was only the stepping stone for the female lead.
Su Zui carefully looked at Su Zhimo and Su Chengzhi's faces that shows no similarities at all. As if he thought of something funny, he let out a light laugh and his appearance turned soft and warm like a river.
”You guys can eat,” He said as he got ready to go up the stairs: ”I'm going to take a rest.”
After he left, Su Chengzhi fling a cup down, causing a thunderous noise, and scolded loudly: ”Unfilial son! Really f.u.c.king spoiled him too much!”
Xie Yan stood on one side and used a soft voice to console him.
Su Zhimo stood on another side and watched her lack of demeanor father and her apprehensive mother. An un.o.bvious disgust flashed pa.s.sed her eyes.
There are some people that even if their outside appearance are pretty and clean, their insides are full of filth that is impossible to get rid of.
She can't acknowledge this stepfather and this Su family. If it wasn't for the fact that that stepbrother has the right of inheritance to the Qin family, then as early as when she knew she wasn't Su Chengzhi's blood related daughter, she could unhesitantly leave the Su family.
————————
While the people at the bottom of the stairs are stuck with their own thoughts, Su Zui, the main culprit who is upstairs, carefreely took an afternoon nap.
This body's const.i.tution isn't good. A few movement can cause the person to feel exhausted, which Su Zui isn't use to.
The system market does contain a upgrade body const.i.tution tool, but he can't afford it. Only after completing a mission can he obtain experience points. Right now, Su Zui's experience points are still zero.
He laid in bed while looking over the system's announced missions.
[Main mission 1: Cannon fodder vengeance.]
[Mission summary: Change the original's fate. Furthermore, make the sc.u.m male, who betrayed the original, obtain his deserved retribution.]
[Mission rewards: 5000 experience points.]
[Main mission 2: Inherit family business.]
[Mission summary: At least obtain either the father or mother's company's administrative power and stockholder.]
[Mission rewards: 5000 experience points.]
The latter had a good explanation, but the former's explanation is a bit vague.
At what degree of punishment does it count as a ”deserved retribution” for Yang Yuanhang?
Is it just let Yang Yuanhang become extremely remorse and that's it? Or is it to the point where he becomes frustratedly poor to the point he fall from grace?
System 555 express that it is only an ignorant small system: ”The criterias are decided by the main system.”
Su Zui use his arms to get out of bed, squint his eyes, and yawned: ”Then let's give him the highest treatment.”
Since he can't figure out the criterias, then he will directly settle the matter in one go (6). After all, no mistakes can come from that.
Just like this, he used a few phrases to decide Yang Yuanhang's ending.
Su Zui suddenly ask: ”Is there any mission that isn't related to the main lead? For example, replace the female lead and walk to the the top or such?”
System 555 hesitant for a second: ”There are.”
System 555: ”But because the main lead carries a luck halo. The mission to counterattack the main lead is very high. Even if it is released, the mission is still very hard to complete. That's why under cannon fodder system, counterattacking the main lead mission is more like an Easter egg. If you complete it, you gain rewards. But if you didn't complete it, nothing will happen.”
Su Zui: ”You guys are pretty humane.”
While he wash his face, he simultaneously look at the mirror and ponder.
In actuality, Su Zhimo isn't Su Chengzhi's blood related daughter, but is instead a product of Xie Yan and another rich person's one night stand.
Su Chengzhi is merely believes himself to be infallible while picking up another person's dishes.
But this is still strange.
Obviously, just by using a paternity test one can uncover this lie. Unexpectedly, Su Chengzhi never doubted this daughter's origins. With just one look, he believed firmly that Su Zhimo is his blood related daughter and was unable to stop himself from doting on her.
So much that even towards Xie Yan's past, he did not look into it.
Although Xie Yan carefully covered up the fact that she relied on her body to climb up the social ladder, but her abilities still have a bottom line. If Su Chengzhi were to seriously investigate, then it isn't hard to expose a few traces.
However, the usual selfish and astute Su Chengzhi seems to encounter a large brain hole in regards to this mother and daughter pair.
So much that until Su Zhimo finished using him and threw him away, Su Chengzi finally realized that he has been willingly wear a green hat for the past twenty years.
Is this what the system meant by the ”luck halo” that belongs to the main lead?
He pondered for a while: ”I feel that calling it mentally defective halo is more fitting.”
Forcefully pulling a person's intelligence down to this inhumane level, if it wasn't mentally defectiveness than what could it be?
Su Zui packed up simply and just when he walked to the stairs, he was met with a pleased Su Chengzhi.
Because of the unhappiness during lunch time, Su Chengzhi's face looks very horrible. A cold snort sounded from his nose.
Su Zhui took one look at the walking green hat and is too lazy to argue with him.
He fears that if he goes too near, his intelligence will also drop.
Who knew that Su Chengzhi could stir things up on his own: ”Stand there. Where are you going now? All day long, you only know how to fool around outside. How long has it been since you graduated? How many times have you went over to the company? What? You feel that this arrangement isn't up to your standards? Who didn't start from the bottom up? If you don't understand the situation of a basic worker, how can you manage them well? You always put yourself above others! You originally don't have the same talent as you sister, but you aren't willing to learn at all. With you like this, how can I feel relieved to entrust my painstakingly runned company to you?”
Su Zui can't help but ponder: ”.......”
How much of this cheap dad's intelligence was robbed by the female lead's mentally defective halo?
”That small company of yours can be given to whoever. Quit putting on this play. I'm not going to cherish it.” Without giving any face, Su Zui's face became cold, ”Is your company's worth as high as my mom's company's worth?”
”You——” Su Chengzhi's face turned to the color of pig liver again.
Ever since he dated his former wife, he felt that his counterpart's high family background and capability always poke at his sore spot.
He came from a rural area. His upbringings always says that it is the male who has power in the household.
He a.s.siduously worked for half of his life to the point that his body became sick. After so much difficulty, he finally was able to cultivate a reputable company; but whenever anyone mentions it, it was always ”President Qin's husband”.
For so many years, he didn't know how he was able to endure it.
Being hit in his sore spot, Su Chengzhi shed all pretenses: ”Don't feel so proud of yourself. No matter how big that company is, it is currently not in your hands. In the future, eighty percent of it won't have any relations with you. Go conduct yourself more soberly Su Zui.”
He coldy said: ”Since you don't cherish me as a father, then don't bother coming to Fu family's banquet tonight and let your sister go instead.”
Upper cla.s.s banquets are an established way to make connections.
Fu family is a more rich and imposing family compare to that of Qin family. The banquet invitations are hard to get. He doesn't know how much relations.h.i.+ps and interests he used up in order to get an invitation letter.
The invitation only allows the guest to bring one companion.
If he brings Su Zui, then he has no way of bring his loveable daughter.
He was suppressed by his former wife for so many years and wasn't even able to get close to this son who the former wife gave birth to. At the bottom of his heart, he doesn't want to nurture Su Zui and help him establish connections.
Now that he removed all pretenses in front of Su Zui, he can just so happen to bring her along.
Su Zui looked down at him, with a cold expression on his face: ”Oh, make way.”
Su Chengzhi step to the side. Although his face is still the same, but his mood is much better.
He thought happily: Su Zui in the end is still a child; doing things so impulsively and not thinking about the results. He doesn't know what he's losing out on.
Where could the Qin family willing to bring Su Zui along? How could he not know his own child?
A gloomy strange personality. Not only is Su Zui not close with his family, but also he is not close with the Qin family's side.
Don't know how to rely on a mountain when you can, this is what one can call inept and a fool!
If this type of people can succeed in life, he will write his name backwards!
Su Zui can approximately guess what Su Chengzhi is thinking, but he feels that this person's brain is beyond saving. There is nothing good to say.
He pushed open the villa's door and saw a familiar figure in the garden.
It was Su Zhimo.
She doesn't have any cla.s.s in the afternoon. Currently, she is at the garden's pavillion drinking tea and reading a book. Her hair is tied in a ponytail, seemingly more graceful than the ladies brought up from rich families.
Faint golden sunlight s.h.i.+nes softly on her body, causing her to appear more tender and beautiful than the flowers in the garden.
Taking note of Su Zui's gaze, Su Zhimo raised her head and gave him a light smile.
Su Zui also gave a fake smile in return. His smile caused him to expose his neat and tidy white teeths, like a small animal who just woke up and prepare to forage for food.
He exit the door, got on the car, and drove to a place the original haven't went for a year.
