Chapter 638: Chapter 637: Su Family’s End
Chi Yan was near madness, displaying an unprecedented loss of composure.
Zhao Yuexiu’s face also darkened to the extre, her hands tightly clenched into fists, constantly trembling.
They simply could not accept that Chi Gui, who once seed to them nothing more than a rural girl, had now beco soone they had to look up to.
The impact in their hearts was like a flood breaking through a dam, toppling all of their pride and sense of superiority.
Chi Gui, by what right?
How could she beco an Academician?
However, no matter how hard it was for them to accept, in the end, they could only feel a deep sense of powerlessness.
What more could they do to Chi Gui now?
Moreover, looking at the attitude of the Su Family, it seed this marriage was likely to be called off.
Unknowingly, a sense of regret began to erge within them both; if they had only been nicer to Chi Gui initially, surely the outco would have been different…
Chi Mingkun’s lips, however, curled into a faint smile.
Though he was siblings with Chi Yan, her actions alongside Zhao Yuexiu had always made him uncomfortable.
Now, he felt an especially satisfying sense of relief in his heart.
The room fell silent…
At the Su Family’s house at this ti.
“Sigh…”
Old Sir Su looked at Su Qing and let out a deep sigh, his already aged face seeming to age a decade more in that mont.
He said weakly, “Su Qing, you were supposed to be Chi Gui’s fiancé, but look at how things have turned out, so unpleasant.”
Su Qing was speechless. The old man didn’t spell it out, but he understood Old Sir Su’s intentions.
He wanted him to reconcile with Chi Gui.
But was that possible?
Su Qing said with a bitter smile, “Forget it, there is no possibility for and Chi Gui now, she… she is soone I cannot afford to marry anymore.”
He spoke these words feebly, his heart filled with imnse discomfort.
Why did he partner up with Chi Yan in the past? It was mainly because he looked down on Chi Gui, feeling that she was insignificant.
Marriage should, after all, be a match of equal social status.
Now, the situation has truly beco mismatched…
“Sigh!”
Old Sir Su heaved another heavy sigh, filled with deadly regret. If he had known Chi Gui would beco so impressive…
At that mont.
Old Sir Su’s mobile phone suddenly rang. He took it out and saw who it was, then frowned, “A call from my assistant…”
He was puzzled.
The Su Family’s businesses in Capital City were rarely managed by him personally; he left it to his subordinates and had never encountered any major issues.
But this ti, the assistant had bypassed the hierarchy to call him directly?
Old Sir Su pressed the answer button without hesitation.
Then, the voice of the assistant, full of urgency, ca from the other end:
“Old Sir, sothing big has happened. All of our partners have canceled their collaborations with us, and they don’t even care about the penalties for breach of contract. If this continues, our company’s cash flow will break within three days, and we may go bankrupt…”
What?
Upon hearing this, Old Sir Su jumped up, his face went pale, and his entire body began to tremble uncontrollably.
Partners canceling contracts?
All of them?
And the family business facing bankruptcy within three days?
Old Sir Su was stunned but quickly realized that this was all because of Chi Gui; the incident involving Chi Yan and Su Qing at the promotion ceremony had upset those who wanted to curry favor with Chi Gui.
Chi Gui was now an Academician, after all—how many people were trying to ingratiate themselves with her by all possible ans?
At this mont, the Su Family had evidently beco the weak point for these people.
