Chapter 792: 782 Stock God (4) Update 1

Upon hearing his mother’s words, Su’s father closed his eyes briefly, turned to look at Grandpa Su, and showed no intent to intervene.

The marriage between Shaohua and Su Zhehen had not been openly opposed by the Su Family at the time, but the real decision-maker had always been the senior Mr. Su. Originally, as the elder Mr. Su is now comatose and Shaohua disagreed with the divorce, they had also temporarily disregarded Shaohua’s wishes.

But now the Su Family had fallen into an economic crisis. Liao Xuanxuan was the national champion of the stock market simulation competition once again, and the An Family was willing to pay a hefty sum to secure her services.

If they could bring Liao Xuanxuan into the Su Family, they would happily replace Shaohua with a hundred, or even a thousand of her.

Moreover, if it wasn’t for Shaohua initiating the physical altercation, this situation would not have escalated to this point.

Su Zhehen had been wanting to divorce Shaohua for a long time. Upon hearing his mother’s words, he immediately stood up, "I’m going to find Shaohua now. If she doesn’t agree, then we’ll stop concerning ourselves with the Ye Family altogether!"

The Ye Family had been close friends with the Su Family for generations, with ties stretching back to the previous generation. However, now as the Su Family was teetering on the brink of collapse, as long as Liao Xuanxuan did not mind that Su Zhehen had been married before and was willing to stand by the Su Family in such times, no one in the Su Family would truly care about the Ye Family or Shaohua.

**

Shaohua was unaware of the situation concerning Liao Xuanxuan and others. After leaving the hospital, she drove herself to the offices of the Ye Family.

While it’s referred to as the Ye Family business, it was essentially just a small investment company that didn’t even compare to the Liao Family’s small factories, let alone compete with the Su Family.

"Mi... Miss?" In the Ye Family’s workspace, there were barely any people around, just two people printing documents, while others watched the stock market on their computers.

The one calling Shaohua was Shao Feng, an old employee of the Ye Family and also a top graduate. He could have pursued a higher path but chose to remain at the Ye Family business since he was once saved by Mr. Ye at a banquet.

"Uncle Shao," Shaohua glanced at the investment portfolio he was working on and immediately had a grasp of the situation, "How is the company doing now?"

Ever since the deaths of Mr. and Mrs. Ye, Shaohua had not returned to the company. Her sudden interest in its affairs startled Manager Shao, but he still gathered all the company’s financial statements for her.

"It’s all here," Shao Feng placed a stack of documents on the table and smiled with some relief, "If Mr. Ye could see you now..."

He stopped midway upon seeing Shaohua lower her head silently. Shao Feng sighed and said no more.

Shao Feng had watched Shaohua grow up. Once unworried and unafraid, she now sat in the office quietly reviewing documents, which made him feel rather sorrowful.

Shaohua casually picked up the top document and began browsing through it. The original owner of her body truly was a failure, not only ignoring the stock market and financial circles but also never involving herself with the affairs of the Ye and Su families. Shaohua had to come take a look herself.

The original owner’s wishes were somewhat complicated. Firstly, she wanted Su Zhehen to regret his actions, and secondly, she had an epiphany and wanted to protect the family business left by her parents. It’s unclear how such a prodigal child could harbor such lofty aspirations.

Although Mr. and Mrs. Ye were deceased, some of the loyal employees of the Ye Family had not left, like Shao Feng. In the original story, following the original owner’s death, the Ye Family business collapsed, and these old employees lived in poverty.

"Manager Shao." Just as Shaohua finished one document and picked up another, a young man suddenly entered the office and placed a resignation letter on the table.

"Xu Shen, do you even know what you’re saying?!" Before Shao Feng could speak, the young man following Xu Shen came in, looked at him angrily, and exclaimed, "Who was it that sponsored your high school education all the way to studying in America? Now that Mr. Ye is gone, you want to leave immediately because the An Family is headhunting. You are nothing but... My father hasn’t even found your replacement yet!"

Xu Shen’s expression did not change; he just glanced at Shaohua, who was superficially flipping through the financial reports, spending no more than ten seconds per page—hardly enough time to finish reading a single line.

Witnessing this, Xu Shen shook his head inwardly; it was still the same after all. With such a Young Lady in charge, the company was bound to collapse sooner or later.

He shifted his gaze away without a hint of guilt, "I’ve done more than enough for the Ye Family, Manager Shao. People must look out for themselves; the heavens will destroy those who do not. Aren’t you aware of what is happening to the Su Family right now? Miss Ye injured the elder Mr. Su, and now the Su Family is in critical danger and won’t care about us. How will we fill the financial gaps in the Ye Family? Half the month has passed, and I won’t even ask for my salary; let’s just leave it at that."

After saying his piece, Xu Shen left the office without looking back.

"You!" Shao Yancheng, seeing Xu Shen actually walk away, furrowed his brows tightly, wishing to chase after him and give him a good beating.

If it weren’t for Mr. and Mrs. Ye back then, there would be no high-achiever Xu Shen today.

Every New Year, Mrs. Ye would invite him to the Ye mansion so he wouldn’t be lonely. Ultimately, the Ye Family owed him nothing, yet he chose this time to kick them when they were down.

Not only did he resign without a handover, but he also took away a significant order from the Ye Family.

Shaohua had finished another document. Seeing Shao Yancheng ready to chase after Xu Shen to confront him, she placed the paper on the table without picking up a new one. Looking up, she said calmly, "Let someone like that go if he wants to leave."

"But what about our financial deficit?" Shao Yancheng still felt discontent. Xu Shen’s departure was a huge blow to the Ye Family. The company was already struggling to stay afloat, relying on that particular order—only to be betrayed by Xu Shen at the last moment.

Shaohua shook her head, "Don’t worry, I’ll figure something out."

As Xu Shen walked out the door with his documents, he heard Shaohua’s overly confident words and couldn’t help but shake his head, his lips curling into a sarcastic smile. With things as they were, what could she possibly figure out?
