"Su Brother, I'm sorry, I just..."
After the two sat down on a bench, Yan Min said sowhat embarrassedly.
"I understand." Su Chen replied nonchalantly, "I see you as a sister, what's this little thing to fuss about?"
"Just as a sister?"
Yan Min's expression turned a bit dim upon hearing Su Chen's words, but she didn't voice the question.
"Who was that guy just now? He seed to be pretty wealthy?"
Su Chen asked casually, failing to notice the subtle change in Yan Min's expression.
"Oh, his na is Lei Hang. Actually, he doesn't attend our university. His father is the owner of a well-known investnt company in Yandu; he's been pestering for two years now, and it's really annoying."
Yan Min also put aside the slight sense of loss she had felt a mont ago.
"Two years? I didn't expect this guy to be quite devoted."
"Devoted my foot. Although he pursues , he always has other won around him. I heard he even got several won pregnant, and after giving them so money, he thinks it's all settled, he's nothing but scum."
Yan Min spat out angrily:
"Moreover, even if he didn't have all this dirty laundry, I wouldn't like him one bit."
"So you have soone you like?"
Su Chen asked with a smile.
"Mhm."
Yan Min nodded softly.
"Then, when will you introduce him to Su Brother? I can give you my opinion."
Yan Min looked up at Su Chen and hesitated, ultimately not saying the words "The person I like is you!"
What she said instead was a single word: "Alright."
"Take on a tour of your university; it's my first ti here."
"Sure!"
Yan Min forced a smile and said to Su Chen.
She then led Su Chen around the Yandu University campus, which boasted finely designed landscapes that were indeed beautiful.
"Yan Min, is this your boyfriend?"
"Yan Min, your boyfriend is so handso!"
"Yan Min, won't you introduce us to your handso boyfriend?"
As they walked, female classmates who recognized Yan Min teasingly asked her when they saw her arm-in-arm with an unfamiliar man.
Hearing these words, Yan Min felt a mix of shyness and happiness.
Being a man, Su Chen was even more unconcerned, and he smiled politely at them, recognizing that these were Yan Min's classmates after all!
Unknowingly, the two had strolled for more than an hour, and as lunchti approached, Su Chen followed Yan Min to the Yandu University cafeteria and grabbed sothing simple to eat.
After lunch, Su Chen was ready to leave, and Yan Min accompanied him to the university gate.
"That's far enough; you should hurry back," Su Chen told Yan Min.
"In a while, Su Brother will co to see you again. If that Lei Hang continues to bother you, just tell Su Brother, and I'll take care of it for you."
"Okay, Su Brother, have a safe trip."
Yan Min had to head to class soon, so she didn't insist on continuing to see him off.
It was only after she saw Su Chen's car drive away that she turned to head back; two steps in, she couldn't help feeling annoyed:
"It's all my fault for getting too excited upon seeing Su Ge; I completely forgot to talk to him about the talent agency matter. Oh well, I'll just have to bring it up next ti I see him."
After leaving Yandu University, Su Chen directly returned to Rainbow Mansion, where he stayed until the end of the workday.
Since it was Friday, almost everyone hurried back to Jianghai after work, mainly to bring their cars over for the weekend. After all, it's too inconvenient to be here without a car.
Su Chen still had his dinner at the fast-food restaurant near Rainbow Mansion and then went back to his apartnt.
Once he returned to his apartnt, he started cultivating right away and soon imrsed himself in the profound world of the Nine Yang Divine Technique...
By this ti, it was already 8 o'clock in the evening, and the neon lights outside had started to flicker.
In the private room of an upscale nightclub, six or seven young n were sitting on leather sofas, each dressed in clothing sewn by Europe's oldest bespoke workshops.
The bottles of wine on the table were also collectors' items that one couldn't just buy or even see on the market.
These young n exuded a natural air of condescension, as if there were nothing in this world worthy of their attention.
Next to each of these n sat a woman whose beauty and figure could be considered high-grade. Although these won were the top cards of the nightclub, they were nothing more than playthings in the eyes of these significant figures!
Among these young n, there was only one woman. However, when she saw the large hands of those n groping the won beside them, her expression remained unchanged, as if she had grown used to the sight.
"Su Dashao, it seems like there was a big incident in your family yesterday?"
One of the n said, swirling his glass and smiling mockingly.
"I've heard about it too. They say your younger brother lost half his life. I just don't know who did it, daring to lay a hand on the Su Family's second Young Master."
Another man chid in.
"Co on, Zheng Dashao, Situ Dashao, aren't you afraid he'll flip the table talking about this in front of Su Dashao?"
The Shen Family's third son, Shen Yu, took a sip of his drink and laughed teasingly.
"Well, it's really true that good news stays inside, but bad news travels far and wide!"
Su Bo pinched the fullness of the woman beside him and lanted with a sense of resignation, but he couldn't quite hide the smirk on his lips.
"I think not only will Su Dashao not flip the table, he may even be thanking the person who took action in his heart!"
The only woman in the room glanced at Su Bo and laughed.
"Situ brother, your sister A Jiao is always so straightforward, always speaking the blunt truth! Ha ha!~~~"
Zheng Xuan pointed at Situ Lei and burst into laughter, and others in the room also laughed out loud.
"What are you all laughing about? Sothing so tragic happens to my Su Family, and you all are laughing like this, is that appropriate?"
Su Bo muttered disdainfully, feigning a long face.
"Co off it, Su brother, why put on an act in front of us?"
Shen Yu glanced at Su Bo and said:
"With what happened, I reckon your uncle and cousin's hopes of contending with your family for the position of Family Head have slimd down considerably."
Shen Yu didn't make this comnt without reason; with an incident like yesterday's, if Su Can was smart, he would have erased all traces so that no one would know about it.
Yet he let his shock and anger take over, almost shaking the entire Su Family. The Su Family is not monolithic, and soon word got out.
How can soone who has been humiliated with a foot on their face possibly inherit the position of Family Head?
In choosing a successor in a large family, the criteria are lineage, seniority, ability, and face!
Sotis, 'face' even outweighs the first three!
