Chapter 159: Chapter 143 【Liu Li, Ruoshui】

The city of Dong hai, known as the "Dongfang Pearl," is the economic and financial center of Huaxia, a thriving international metropolis situated at the mouth of the Yangtze River and facing the East China Sea. It serves as the core of the economic circle of the Yangtze River Delta.

There is a plethora of universities in Dong hai including the renowned Fudan University, with a history spanning over a century, as well as emerging new institutions represented by Dong hai University.

Since its establishment, Dong hai University has combined the city’s unique characteristics, focusing on economics as its draw, and has prioritized building the nation’s top school of economic management. It has developed other faculties around the core of the School of Economic Management.

Over the years, Dong hai University has become a perennial fixture among the top ten universities in Huaxia, and its School of Economic Management is regarded as an equal to the very finest, Huaqing University’s School of Economic Management, attracting students from both within and outside Huaxia to pursue advanced studies.

After noon, the campus that had been tranquil became bustling as Su Liuli, the top freshman at Dong hai University, stormed out of her dorm building. Ignoring the surprised looks around her, she headed straight for the red Land Rover.

Soon, under the astonished gaze of the surrounding students, Su Liuli got into the car, started it, and floored the accelerator. The red Land Rover roared away like a steel monster unleashed.

Inside the car, Su Liuli was gritting her teeth with rage, her anger evident on her face.

Her fury stemmed from a call she just received from Su Yuxin, who informed her that she was coming to Dong hai. Out of curiosity, Su Liuli inquired and found out about the major incident at the Su Family a few days ago.

Upon learning that her mother, Su Qin, had colluded with Su Hongyuan and Su Ming to treat Su Yuxin as a bargaining chip and marry her off to Lin Ao Feng, and that Ye Fan had almost lost his life as a result, Su Liuli exploded like a lit keg of gunpowder—she was determined to confront Su Qin and demand an explanation!

About half an hour later, Su Liuli drove the red Land Rover to the municipal government office building, where she was stopped by the armed police on guard duty.

"I’m here to see Su Qin."

Despite the overwhelming anger in her heart, Su Liuli managed to control her emotions and did not attempt to barge through. Instead, she stopped the car and explained to the armed police.

"Hmm?"

Without responding or giving permission to pass, the armed police looked at Su Liuli with a puzzled expression—there was only one person named Su Qin in the city government, a deputy director of a powerful department, a deputy bureau-level official. Yet the young woman before him, who seemed to be about twenty years old, was calling Su Qin by her full name, which was quite astonishingly direct.

"You can call and ask for her, just say I am her daughter Su Liuli." Seeing the perplexed look on the face of the armed police, Su Liuli added.

"Please wait a moment." Upon hearing her words, the armed police saluted, turned around, and went to make a call to report.

"Director Su’s office is on the eighth floor, please come in." Half a minute later, having received instructions, the armed police swiftly allowed her entry.

"Thank you."

Su Liuli politely thanked them, then accelerated, and the Land Rover bolted off, accompanied by a roaring sound as it charged towards the imposing office building.

In an office on the eighth floor of the office building, Su Qin stood by the window, and upon seeing this scene, she couldn’t help but frown, apparently displeased with Su Liuli’s ostentatious behavior.

After her moment of dissatisfaction, she had an inkling, and without changing her expression, she took her seat at the desk, waiting for Su Liuli’s arrival.

Five minutes later, a sequence of rapid footsteps could be heard in the corridor. Then, the footsteps came to an abrupt halt, and the door of Su Qin’s office swung open—Su Liuli, with a face full of anger, stepped into the office.

Bang—

Upon entering, Su Liuli slammed the office door with a dull thud, then glaring at Su Qin with fury, she said, "What do you mean by this?"

"What’s the matter?" Su Qin furrowed her brows at Su Liuli and feigned ignorance as she inquired.

"What do you think is the matter?"

For some reason, hearing Su Qin’s counter-question caused Su Liuli’s rage to surge uncontrollably.

"Liuli, as a young lady, you should be graceful and reserved, not brash and lacking in manners—especially at your age," instead of answering, Su Qin began to lecture Su Liuli from the position of a mother.

"You’re trying to discipline me now? Don’t you think it’s too late?"

Su Liuli laughed bitterly in her anger; since her childhood, she had been left with her uncle’s family and raised single-handedly by Mrs. Su, who she felt was more of a mother to her. Though Su Qin bore the name of mother, she had not fulfilled the responsibilities that come with it.

"—"

Su Qin was at a loss for words.

Back then, her decision to give birth to Su Liuli was merely to avoid being abandoned by Bai Guotao, hoping that the child would tie him to her.

Therefore, to her at that time, Su Liuli was nothing more than a tool to satisfy her own emotional needs.

As she recalled all this, Su Qin’s face showed traces of guilt and self-reproach.

"You don’t have to feign remorse."

Seeing this, a fleeting look of grievance passed through Su Liuli’s eyes, followed by a cold expression as she said, "I’m not here today to question you about your lack of motherly duties."

"Then what is it for?"

Su Qin sighed softly. Accustomed to the ways of politics, she instinctively chose a passive strategy, wanting Su Liuli to say it firsthand.

"Why did you join them in forcing Yu Xin to marry that beast, Lin Ao Feng?"

Su Liuli rushed to the desk in a few strides, hands pressed against the desk as she glared at Su Qin and demanded, "Not only that, but you nearly killed Yu Xin’s savior—have you all lost your conscience to dogs?"
