Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

As they waited for Mr. Li the lawyer, the CFO felt as if he was sitting on pins and needles. He didn’t dare to mock Su Xiaonai anymore, and feared that he was about to lose his job.

He needed to pay rent soon. At least for now, he could not afford to offend the future heir of the Su Corporation.

Su Xiaonai was about to take a look at the time on her watch when someone knocked on the door.

She raised her eyebrows.

Mr. Li was so quick!

As she expected, a familiar face materialized the next moment. Mr. Li greeted everyone in the room briefly.

He then walked over to Su Xiaonai and handed her a stack of documents already prepared.

Su Xiaonai took it. After taking a few glances at its contents, she handed it over to the CFO.

The CFO paused with shock, his gaze uncertain. Still, he braced himself to take the documents and flipped them through absent-mindedly.

Su Xiaonai had expected the CFO to be this panicked, even though she couldn’t care less about him right now.

“Can I look through the bank statements now?”

Cold sweat broke out on the CFO’s forehead and fell on the carpet silently, yet he still insisted.

“Miss Su, although the official documents named you the successor of the Su Corporation, which would, of course, grant you the right to check the bank statements, the person that is in charge of the company right now is Madam Wang. We still need her approval.

“I am only trying to do my work here; I really don’t have a choice. Miss Su, I recommend you go through the normal procedure.”

Su Xiaonai frowned. After a long silence, she sighed and took a sip of water from the paper cup beside her.

“Well, call them.”

The CFO was relieved to see that Su Xiaonai wasn’t going to force her way through. Hurrying out of the reception room, he phoned Wang Shenglan and Su Jiaojiao.

Half an hour later, Wang Shenglan and Su Jiaojiao stormed into the room. They were welcomed by a Su Xiaonai that was sitting at the head of the table.

Su Jiaojiao couldn’t hold it in any longer. She walked straight towards her stepsister and started her attack.

“How do you even have the nerve to come here? Get out, you really are shameless.”

Standing right behind, Wang Shenglan didn’t step forward to stop her daughter from speaking. She was also full of anger herself.

Su Jiaojiao just helped her spit it out.

Su Xiaonai was indifferent and even her eyes were cold.

“I’m here to check the bank statement. Don’t be mistaken; I’m the real heir to the Su Corporation, not you.”

Su Jiaojiao’s froze, but Su Xiaonai wasn’t going to feel bad for her stepsister.

“If you have any questions, go ahead and look through the document that Mr. Li has prepared.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Mr. Li, who was beside her, walked forward and brought the documents he had prepared to Su Jiaojiao and Wang Shenglan.

For a moment, Su Jiaojiao didn’t know how to organize her words. She stood there in a daze, and Wang Shenglan couldn’t stay quiet anymore.

She quickly pulled Su Jiaojiao aside and walked over to Su Xiaonai, feigning kindness.

“Xiaonai, is there really a need to check the bank statements? Don’t you trust me and your stepsister?”

Su Xiaonai couldn’t help but sneer at Wang Shenglan’s shamelessness.

“That’s hard to say. After all, you aren’t the smartest people. Perhaps you’ve already embezzled company funds.”

Hearing Su Xiaonai call her stupid, Wang Shenglan was furious. She pointed a trembling finger at Su Xiaonai.

Seeing that her mother hadn’t come up with any retort, Su Jiaojiao immediately stood up to refute. She didn’t care about losing face.

“You’re the stupid one! Even if we had embezzled the company funds, it was for a project!”

Su Xiaonai almost laughed out loud when she heard this. She hadn’t expected Su Jiaojiao to be such a dimwit to confess this easily.

She had really overestimated Su Jiaojiao’s intelligence.

“Oh, all the more reason to check then.”

Su Jiaojiao covered her mouth and cursed herself. How could she spill it all out?

She gritted her teeth when she realized that she was no match for Su Xiaonai. Suddenly, a figure appeared in her head.

Hey, I’ve still got Gu Sinan!

As Su Xiaonai’s ex-boyfriend, Gu Sinan could definitely humiliate Su Xiaonai and get back at her.

Su Jiaojiao raised her head and stood taller, looking confident.

“Just you wait, I’m going to call someone!”

Su Jiaojiao dialed a number. The other side picked up within a few seconds, his voice sweet.

“Baby, why are you calling at this time?”

Su Jiaojiao was very pleased as she listened to Gu Sinan’s loving voice. Instantly softening, she complained to the phone.

“Ugh, someone bullied me. I feel so bad.”

On the other end of the phone, Gu Sinan twitched his eyebrows, his face filled with worry and anger.

“Who was it?! Who hurt my darling?”

Su Jiaojiao pretended to sob and spelled out the company’s name.

“Just come over and see for yourself.”

After comforting Su Jiaojiao, Gu Sinan hung up the phone and rushed to the Su Corporation.

Watching the whole scene unfold, Su Xiaonai couldn’t help but marvel at Su Jiaojiao’s quick change of mood. She felt like it was a performance that deserved an Oscar.

She was speechless.

None of them spoke for a while, and the room was stifling. At the next moment, the wooden door swung open.

It was Gu Sinan.

Su Xiaonai raised an eyebrow. She hadn’t expected him to arrive so quickly. It seemed like he really doted on his girlfriend.

It wasn’t Su Jiaojiao that Gu Sinan noticed first when he entered, but Su Xiaonai.

It was the same gorgeous face, its beauty not lost in time.

For a few seconds Gu Sinan stood rooted to the ground. Su Jiaojiao was indignant that her boyfriend would stare at Su Xiaonai for so long.

She immediately walked to Gu Sinan’s side and pinched his arm.

“What are you looking at!?”

Gu Sinan took a deep breath in pain before he realized where he was and asked Su Jiaojiao caringly.

“Who bullied you?”

Tears welled up in Su Jiaojiao’s eyes as she pointed at Su Xiaonai.

“It’s her! She said she wanted to look through the company’s bank statement.”

Gu Sinan frowned. Without thinking, he looked at Su Xiaonai and started interrogating her.

“Su Xiaonai, how are you causing trouble the moment you come back?”

Su Xiaonai was speechless and rubbed her aching temples. She couldn’t help but admire Gu Sinan’s stupidity. He and Su Jiaojiao really suited each other.

Su Xiaonai didn’t feel like talking and shot a glance at Mr. Li.

Repeating what he had done earlier, Mr. Li handed the documents to Gu Sinan.

Su Xiaonai watched as Gu Sinan read the documents with his head lowered. His expression changed almost instantly.

“Checking the bank statements is my own business. It’s not for some outsider to tell me what to do.”

Gu Sinan couldn’t come up with a response. Su Jiaojiao couldn’t hold it in any longer and rushed forward to tear the documents apart..
