Without glancing at her friend and well-wisher Tang Yue, Su Lin kept her eyes on Shi ng and smirked.
She then slowly and sarcastically muttered, "But aren't we still married, my dear ?"
Shi ng's sculpted magnetic eyes instantly widened like a pair of boiled eggs. He was wholly and utterly dumbfounded, and it was visible on his face.
Thrusting upwards, he stood up so fast that his chair banged the wall behind him. There is no way she knows !! She can't possibly know this !!
He panicked, and he laughed. Gently first, then followed by bouts of violent laughter, as if he was possessed.
His angry stare bore down on Su Lin, and he gently whispered with a raspy voice, "Do you that badly want to be married to ?"
He pushed his table forward with an unnecessarily excessive force and walked towards that arrogant plain woman sitting in front of him.
What did she think of herself !? Hmph. With one swift motion, he bent down and brashly grabbed her chin.
Or at least he ant to.
A hand ca from nowhere and slapped his Rolex donned wrist away. His wandering gaze imdiately t with a pair of sharp demonic eyes. They seed to be outraged by sothing, barely containing the anger.
Luther firmly stood between him and Su Lin. With a gentle divine smile, Luther asked: "Are you sure you want to take this argunt to the next level ?"
For a second there, Shi ng could feel the almost palpable raw killing intent.
Watching the two, almost ready to start a brawl, Su Lin sighed and shook her head. Too much testosterone in this room!
She stood up, gently wrapped her hands around Luther's hand, and pulled him back. Submissive to her pull, the man who was ready to kill, a few seconds ago, calmly retreated.
"Enough of this random chat. You know what I am talking about. Prepare the papers." Dragging Luther with her, Su Lin, quickly walked out of the office headquarters.
They took a cab back to the storefront to help Runyan do so labor work and finish making so products.
Luther was uncomfortably silent for the whole car ride. He seed to be upset with a tinge of anger. Soon, they reached the shop. Su Lin was about to open the car door to exit when Luther brashly pulled her back and mumbled.
"You.. why do you have to be this arrogant, haughty and unreasonable !!"
Su Lin didn't answer him back and turned away. She was also slightly embarrassed about this.
"Look at ," Luther commanded. "Did you need his help that badly ?"
The embarrassed look on her face disappeared, and she firmly replied, "Heh. You wouldn't understand. This debt is sothing that Shi ng owes soone. I am simply collecting it on her behalf."
She opened the door quickly and walked out. It was always suffocating to stay that close to Luther. For so reason, she felt extrely restless and uncomfortable.
"Hmm. Yes, I think we should get one too. The problem is I am not sure who to trust." Su Lin replied.
After all, they were going against one of the most significant industrial empires in the country. No amount of precautions were enough! And that too .. What Su Lin is asking was outrageous and life-changing!
Runyan was anxious about this crazy impulsive friend of hers. While they were still discussing the morning encounter, unexpectedly, another visitor barged into their store.
Su Han opened the door and stood awkwardly, looking extrely sweaty and out of breath. Chuckling Su Lin handed him a glass of water and smiled.
Heh. Of course, that bastard would send him here. Did he think this was going to change anything?
"Wow. It's not even been a whole hour yet, and you are already here." Su Lin smirked.
"Co on, sis! You don't have to go to this extre. What he did was wrong. But let's talk about this and co to a compromise. There is no need for anyone to start a fight." Su Han pleaded.
"Pfft. Who is your sis? Wow, new relations do pop up when money is involved. That saying is correct." Su Lin flinched and said.
Not able to keep a straight face any longer, Su Han yelled, "Are you seriously ready to fight for half of the ng empire? Listen to yourself and look at yourself."
"Grandpa ng might have written whatever he wanted in the will. But, you very well know that every part of that company is Shi ng's blood and sweat."
"Married or not married, you do not have any rights to it !! This is absolute nonsense. Are you that sort of a cheap woman, to take unfair advantage of soone?" Su Han angrily retorted.
"Oh! Your logic is sound — just one flaw. Grandpa ng didn't write so random nonsense. All the properties were under his na, and he gave half of everything."
"And fair or not fair, that is not for so outsider to decide." Su Lin calmly answered.
Su Han stood there and stared at her helplessly. What more can he say? She was correct, and this was her family's issue. And grandpa ng had taken the decision. Now, he is gone, and no one alive can oppose it.
And the worst part was, even though Su Lin knew about it, she seed to have kept quiet regarding the matter till now. If Shi ng hadn't pressed her buttons too much and just let her be, she probably wouldn't even have reopened this issue. Well, you sow what you reap.
Taking one last look at Su Lin, Su Han left abruptly. She looked pretty adamant and stubborn in her stance. This was not sothing he had the power to change. He needs to talk to his grandfather. Maybe .. just maybe they had a chance then.
