Chapter 82: Chapter 82 When Do You Want to Play with Her (2)

Sorry, but this society is inherently unequal between men and women, especially in the workplace.

All successful female entrepreneurs, more or less, have the shadow of a famous man behind them.

This is called "the man behind the woman."

Don’t look at the Weibo world where everyone seems to be just onlookers to the spectacle. However, when the scion of the Xiao Family publicly flaunts his wife not just once, it definitely signifies something, namely that it has caught the attention of certain people related to him.

Su Yixia played on her computer for a while in her room.

Outside, Mother Su called out, "Dinner’s ready."

Su Yixia walked out of her room.

The four members of the Su Family sat in the dining room for their meal.

The Su Family could be considered as part of the affluent middle class in the country, with a house covering over a hundred square meters, four bedrooms and two living rooms, quite spacious. And there were no elderly people living with them. In other words, the couple of the Su Family treated their son and daughter like treasures, holding them in the palm of their hands.

As Su Yixia pulled out her chair, she didn’t need to utter the customary polite words to her parents that were expected in traditional families, rather she just plopped down nonchalantly.

In response, Su Yide, sitting opposite her, chided her, "Don’t you have any manners? Can’t you change your clothes when you come home?"

Su Yixia had always had the upper hand in arguments, retorting sharply, "You’re about to get married, save your energy to scold your wife. Or is it that you don’t have the guts to confront your wife, and can only pick on your sister at home?"

At those words, Su Yide glared at her several times.

Unaffected, Su Yixia coolly fiddled with the cold dishes on the table with her chopsticks, not intimidated at all by her brother’s angry looks, and said, "If you really want to show some backbone, you wouldn’t have to be henpecked at home."

"What did you say? Don’t talk about yourself," Su Yide said with conviction. "Weren’t you rejected by your prospective employer? You can’t even find a job—"

"And what great talent do you have? You got into that hospital all because of Dad’s connections. Can you even brag about that job? I got everything on my own. And besides, I’m going to work at MN."

As the two siblings quarreled, their parents from the Su Family were there listening.

Hearing Su Yixia say this, Father Su gave an authoritative opinion, "Aren’t you on good terms with that rich girl from the Lin Family? Help your brother out a little. He’s up for a professional title evaluation this time, and he needs support from people inside the hospital."

"Right," Su Yide chimed in, "since you’ve already sorted out your job and have nothing to worry about, help your brother. It’s to your advantage too. If your brother makes it as an associate professor this time, he’ll be the youngest professor in the hospital."

Su Yixia scoffed at him, "Do you think you can make it? Didn’t you say you had the strongest competitor?"

Su Yide didn’t seem to want to mention this rival, mum as a wilted balloon or flower.

So Father Su turned to his daughter, "Why knock down your brother’s confidence? If he does well, won’t you too? Quickly call that rich girl from the Lin Family."

At this point, Mother Su interjected, "Let’s talk about it after dinner. Can’t you see how tired Yixia is today—"

Consequently, Father Su said, "Let’s eat, let’s eat."

After dinner, ultimately under Father Su’s watchful gaze, Su Yixia retreated to her room and made a phone call.

After two beeps on the other end, a delicate female voice answered, laughing, "What, had enough fun and now you decided to call me?"
