Chapter 271: Chapter 271: Actors, Please Take Your Places

"You’ve fallen for someone!" As soon as Su Yumei said this, all three of them could not hide their astonishment.

They had thought that Su Yumei would never be romantically interested in a man, let alone utter the word ’like’. Now that they had heard it from her own mouth, how could they not be surprised?

"Yes!" Left with no choice under the weight of helplessness, Su Yumei could only confirm the truth, to prevent Su Yan and the others from thinking she had just said something insincere in a moment of desperation.

"Who is this young master?" Jiang Wanzhi asked with an excited expression, eager to know which divine being had managed to thaw their precious daughter’s icy heart.

"He..." As Su Yumei tried to speak, her mind was still scrambling to put together the right words to describe Chen Wei’s identity. After all, his many roles included being the Heavenly God of Protecting the Country, the Underground King, a business tycoon...

Having such a talented junior brother really is troublesome!

"Master, madam." Just as Su Yumei was struggling, the butler strode in energetically.

"What is it?" They were about to learn the identity of the person when the butler’s sudden interruption made Su Yan feel somewhat resistant. Yet, he knew that the butler must have an urgent matter that required his decision.

"There is a young man outside looking for the young miss. He is a stranger to us, and our security system couldn’t identify him, so I wish to ask the master whether we should allow him in or not," the butler reported truthfully.

"A stranger? He must be one of the many suitors after Yumei. Don’t bother with him; let him leave," said Su Yan dismissively. Such occurrences were not unusual for the Su Family, given Su Yumei’s reputation as a wealthy beauty.

"But..." The butler hesitated.

"But what! Speak your mind," urged Su Yan.

"I believe this young man is no ordinary person. The car he drove is worth tens of millions. If we turn away such a person, I’m afraid it may bring trouble to the Su Family," the butler continued.

"A car worth tens of millions!" This reminder sparked something in Su Yan’s mind. "Could it be a wealthy suitor from afar who has come in admiration?"

"Dad, I don’t want to meet him." When Su Yumei heard that he had come in a car worth tens of millions, she immediately dismissed the idea that the visitor was Chen Wei.

Just like everyone else, she was convinced that he must be a rich young man from somewhere else, eager to pursue her.

"That won’t do. He’s come all this way; we should at least meet him, even if he’s not suitable," Su Yan said cautiously, unwilling to take risks.

"But..."

"No buts!" Su Yan firmly interrupted what Su Yumei was about to say and told the butler, "Please invite the young master inside."

"Yes!" The butler withdrew.

"Yumei, if he can drive a car worth millions, he must be someone extraordinary. Since he has come from afar, don’t be too stern. It would be a loss if he held a grudge against our Su Family," Jiang Wanzhi advised.

Grandfather Su Changqing sat quietly drinking tea, not saying a word. Young people should handle their own matters, he thought. There was no need for him, an old man, to intervene and give his opinion on everything.

"All right, but no matter who he is, I won’t agree to be with him," Su Yumei declared with unwavering determination in her eyes.

"Alright, alright, we’ll see when he comes; we’ll talk then," Jiang Wanzhi said, knowing that the more she opposed Su Yumei at a time like this, the more it would provoke her daughter’s defiant streak.

What kind of temperament her daughter had—was she, her mother, not very clear about it?

"Young Master Chen, please come this way." Soon, the butler returned, leading the guest in.

Su Yumei’s previously gloomy mood cleared up instantly upon seeing the visitor, as if the clouds had parted to reveal a clear sky.

Noticing this change, Su Yumei’s father and mother shared a knowing smile.

It seemed their daughter was a bit of a lookist after all!

"Indeed, the young lad is quite handsome," Jiang Wanzhi whispered to Su Yan.

"Hmm," Su Yan nodded in response and didn’t argue. Indeed, even he found this face pleasing to look at.

It’s not right to judge a book by its cover, but Chen Wei’s face, exuding an aura of integrity, really made him seem like a good person.

If someone with that face did evil, who knows how many people would suffer!

"Uncle, auntie, elder, good day," Chen Wei approached and greeted the three elders first.

"Tea..."

Just as Chen Wei was about to address Su Yumei as "senior sister," he was stopped by her fierce glare.

Chen Wei glanced at Su Yan and Jiang Wanzhi, took a moment to sense the atmosphere in the room, and when he noticed the photos of men on the table, he instantly understood what was happening.

His heart filled with speechlessness. I’ve just finished acting, and now I have to act again?

But the situation was such that Chen Wei had no choice. He couldn’t just watch as his master sister was taken away by someone she disliked, could he?

"Yumei," Chen Wei corrected himself.

"Yumei!" Jiang Wanzhi glared and asked, "Young man, do you know my daughter?"

"Yes," Chen Wei nodded affirmatively, "We have been friends for many years."

"Friends?" Jiang Wanzhi looked at Su Yumei, then back at Chen Wei, and with an understanding smile said, "I think, it’s probably more than just friends, isn’t it?"

"For now, that’s correct," Chen Wei replied diplomatically.

"Alright, no need to stand, sit down and let’s talk." Jiang Wanzhi had barely finished speaking when she turned to the butler and said, "Go prepare some tea and pastries, and find something for Young Master Chen."

"Yes," the butler left.

At this time, Su Yan chose to remain silent, quietly observing Chen Wei.

The initiative was in his wife, Jiang Wanzhi’s hands, "Young Master Chen, where is your family from? You don’t seem to be a local of the Imperial Capital."

"No, to be honest, I don’t know where my family is. I’m currently living in River City."

"Ah... I’m sorry," Jiang Wanzhi did not expect Chen Wei to have such a tragic personal history.

"It’s alright, auntie, there’s no need to take it to heart."

"So what do you do? Are you involved in business?" Jiang Wanzhi asked further.

She felt that if Chen Wei could come here driving an expensive car without any support, he was most likely a businessman, and certainly a talent! A prodigy!

"I do run a few small businesses," Chen Wei said modestly.

"I see." Jiang Wanzhi wanted to probe Chen Wei’s background to take advantage of the Su Family’s connections to inquire about him. Chen Wei’s response had slightly disappointed her.

The next second, Chen Wei took over the conversation and asked, "I heard something on my way here, and I wonder if it’s true."

"Oh? What is it?" Jiang Wanzhi asked curiously.

"The Su Family’s business mainly involves overseas export trading, and recently, due to a partnership issue, there has been a problem with maritime transport. If it continues like this, you might lose this part of the business, at least sixty percent of it."

"Indeed, that’s the case. Business is tough with all the scheming involved; we just misplaced our trust." It was something that everyone in the Imperial Capital’s business circles knew, so Jiang Wanzhi didn’t feel the need to deny or hide it.

"I happen to own a shipping company in the Imperial Capital under my name. Perhaps I could be of assistance."
