Chapter 728: 0718 Am I very poor?

On the way back, Chu Xiyao’s expression wasn’t good.

Su Ran, this woman, was harder to deal with than she had imagined, at least not as innocent as she appeared on the surface.

She had intended to show Su Ran her place, but it was she herself who had been put in her place instead.

That woman always managed to put her in an embarrassing situation with just a few simple sentences.

Making her look so ridiculous!

For more than two decades by Qi Yuan’s side, ever since she could remember, her eyes only had room for him.

Even though Qi Yuan had always been cold towards her, she had withstood all the tests for him!

For him, she changed her favorite major to study economics and management, and obtained a master’s degree at a young age.

She took charge of the family affairs early on, showing her astonishing business acumen.

To be worthy of him, to become his qualified wife, she not only learned piano, chess, calligraphy, and painting from a young age but also mastered econometrics and even martial arts.

Now, she had achieved success and become a chosen one just like him.

It was finally time for him to marry, and for her to wed, she had always thought he would choose her.

After all, they were such a perfect match, seemingly destined to be together from birth.

However, a Su Ran appeared out of nowhere!

How could this be?

She had given so much for him, for the position of the Fu Family’s Madam, how could she let someone else easily take what was hers?

Whether it was Qi Yuan or the Fu family, they were hers!

How could she let that woman get the better of her!

Chu Xiyao took a deep breath, her gaze sharp.

"Get me all the information on Su Ran, the more detailed, the better!"

"Yes, Young Miss."

-

On the other hand, back at Fu Qiyuan’s separate residence.

Fu Qiyuan immediately called a servant to bring food to the separate residence, then he went to find some clothes for Su Ran to change into.

Su Ran stood by the window, gazing at the majestic and splendid courtyard architecture outside and felt somewhat moved.

The old house of the Fu family was a traditional quadrangle, not flamboyantly luxurious, yet every aspect was exquisite.

Pavilions, gardens, artificial mountains, and flowing water, compared to high-tech modernity, seemed so out of place.

It was only after stepping into this separate residence that she understood what a top-tier wealthy family really was.

No wonder Old Master Fu and Chu Xiyao looked down on her in every way – they had the right to disdain her!

But, while she could be indifferent, how could she make it difficult for Fu Qiyuan?

Su Ran walked over to the sofa, picked up her handbag that she had thrown on it, and took out her mobile phone.

She sat down on the sofa, opened a hidden website on the phone, and a login screen popped up, into which she entered her username and password.

The system accessed the R Corporation’s page.

She found a number within the system and casually dialed it.

Soon, the call was connected.

"R."

"An Yi, send me all the information on the Chu family."

Upon hearing this, An Yi hesitated for a moment and did not speak for a long time.

Su Ran frowned, "An Yi?"

No one answered again.

What’s going on? Did the line disconnect? Or was there no signal?

Impossible!

The website was set up by her personally, so a disconnection was out of the question.

"An Yi?"

Su Ran called out again, and this time there finally came a sound from the other end.

"Here."

Su Ran repeated, "Send me the information on the Chu family."

An Yi paused for two seconds before responding:

"Which Chu family?"

Su Ran was silent...

So, the reason for his long silence was that he was considering this question?

That’s right, there are thousands of people with the surname Chu.

"The Chu family of Hua Country."

"Okay, please wait."

Five seconds later, "Okay, you can receive it on your end."

Su Ran lightly acknowledged but didn’t hang up the phone.

An Yi knew she had something else to say, so he spoke up:

"R, is there anything else?"

Time ticked by, and after a long silence, Su Ran finally spoke:

"An Yi, am I very poor?"

An Yi: "..."

He waited so long just to hear this?

Su Ran didn’t give him a chance to reply and asked another question:

"Do I look like someone in desperate need of money?"

An Yi: "..."

Su Ran: "Am I the kind of person who is all looks and no substance?"

An Yi: "..."

An Yi didn’t make a sound for a long time, clearly stumped by Su Ran’s triple-question attack!

After a long while—

"R, have you taken a fancy to someone?"

Su Ran nodded, "Yes!"

An Yi’s lips twitched involuntarily, but he still said with a commanding presence:

"That’s easy, just snatch him up!"

Su Ran stated seriously, "We are an organization that abides by the law."

Ha! Would you mind repeating that with your hand on your heart?

To treat her mother’s illness, she had practically raided every renowned medical institution abroad.

Besides, the R Group itself operates on the fringes of the law.

That’s why their headquarters can only be in Country A, where there is a severe socio-economic divide; they can’t survive in a peaceful nation like Hua Country.

"Those are not important, just snatch the person first and talk later."

Su Ran pondered for two seconds, "Well, probably no need to snatch."

An Yi, puzzled: "Hmm?"

Su Ran: "Because he’s already mine!"

An Yi: "..."

Then what are you even talking about?

Su Ran seemed to anticipate what he was thinking and sighed:

"But his family really looks down on me. And there’s his little childhood sweetheart who not only insinuates that I’m just a pretty vase, but is superior in all aspects. Her background trumps mine by miles, as if marrying her is like striking a huge fortune!!"

Upon hearing that, An Yi slammed the table and stood up.

"Bullshit! Where is our R Group’s founder lacking compared to her? In what way is she better? If it’s a horse or a mule, let her take it out for a stroll!"

Su Ran nodded in agreement, "Right? That’s what I think too!"

An Yi said, "So, that woman is from the Chu family of Hua Country?"

Su Ran smirked, "Seems like she’s the next head of the Chu family!"

An Yi: "..."

He just knew, his boss wouldn’t fancy just anyone.

After all, there weren’t many who could make the R Group tremble in fear.

Since the R Group is an intelligence organization, that implies they have some control over the secrets of various families. Those people wouldn’t dare to offend them lightly unless absolutely necessary!

So what they are always on guard for is the military and clandestine forces of various countries.

"A future family head is no big deal!"

Arriving at this point, An Yi seemed to think of the mysterious man Su Ran had mentioned and asked curiously:

"By the way, R, who is the person you fancy?"

They surely must know who the prospective son-in-law of the R Group is, right?

What if they encounter him somewhere one day?

A case of mistaken attack would be terrible!

Su Ran raised her eyebrows, speaking with interest, "The person in charge of the Fu family!"

An Yi paused for two seconds before asking, "The Fu family of Hua Country?"

Su Ran replied casually, "Mhm."

An Yi: "..."

Just let him die, dammit!
