Chapter 1103 - 1111: His Phone Is Off, It Must Be Out of Battery
"Dad, don’t worry, my sister won’t do anything to us." Su Manning knew what Su Zhenxiong was worried about, so she spoke up to comfort him.
Indeed, the Su Family owed her sister a lot. Ever since she was born, all the family’s thoughts and energies were spent on her, as she was cherished and pampered, while her sister was always neglected.
Su Manning still remembers that every year on her birthday, there would be a big cake on the dining table, and everyone in the Su Family would stand quietly beside it, watching her make a wish.
But every time, she couldn’t see her sister’s figure. Later she learned that her birthday was on the same day as her sister’s. Both were Miss Su, both had birthdays, but the gap was so large.
Su Manning thought that if she were the one being neglected, ignored, and shunned by everyone, she might collapse, might not have the courage to go on living.
"I hope so." Su Zhenxiong took a deep drag of his cigarette, then threw the butt into the ashtray and got up, striding upstairs.
Watching him enter the study, Zhao Shuya pulled Su Manning to sit down beside her and quietly asked, "Man Ning, is what you just said true? Is Su Jiuyi really with Shi Aoju?"
"They know each other and get along well, that’s true, but as for whether they are together, I don’t know." Su Manning answered truthfully because she really didn’t know how far the relationship between Su Jiuyi and Shi Aoju had progressed.
"Then ask Zhike." Zhao Shuya said, "Given his relationship with Shi Aoju, Shi Aoju wouldn’t hide anything from him, and you can take the opportunity to communicate well with Zhike."
"Mom." Su Manning frowned slightly, "Song Zhike and I just met, it’s not appropriate to call him now."
"Just because you just met, you all the more should call him. What’s inappropriate about a girlfriend caring about her boyfriend? Besides, you’re already engaged to him, he’s your fiancé, your future husband. Even if it’s to check up on him, it’s perfectly justified." Zhao Shuya said with an air of righteousness.
"Alright then." Su Manning actually didn’t really want to call Song Zhike because she felt that sometimes being too proactive as a woman might make a man feel aversive, but she couldn’t go against Zhao Shuya’s wishes, so she had to take out her phone to call Song Zhike.
When she called Song Zhike, he was busy strategizing with Mr. Qin, and because it was important, he had turned off his phone, so Su Manning couldn’t get through even after several attempts.
Seeing that Su Manning looked a bit disappointed and that the call hadn’t gone through for a long time, Zhao Shuya asked her, "What’s the matter, he didn’t answer your call?"
"His phone is off, maybe the battery’s dead." Su Manning said, standing up, "I’m tired, I want to go back to my room to rest. Mom, you should go to bed early too."
After saying that, she thought of something and said softly, "Whatever happens, discuss it properly. You and Dad are both getting on in years, if you really get a divorce or something, it would be a laughing stock. After all, the Su Family is considered a prominent household in the business world, and there must be many people quietly watching our every move."
Zhao Shuya replied with a hum, "I’m mindful of this, you’re tired, so go upstairs and rest."
Su Manning nodded lightly, "Goodnight."
