Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Fu Yunian was so angry that he threw his phone on the floor. He immediately mobilized his men to find Su Yu’s whereabouts.
He had no idea that this scheming woman had been lying in wait by his side for five years.
She immediately took half of the Fu family’s assets.
But, he didn’t have much time left. He was in a hurry to attend a banquet in Xiangxi.
Whether he could work with the richest man in Xiangxi or not depended on this.

The banquet also coincided with his grandmother’s birthday. He was planning to take her for a walk in Xiangxi.
His subordinates were already searching for Su Yu, so he took his grandmother on a plane to Xiangxi right away.
Xiangxi.
A 1,000 sqm villa was located at the foot of a mountain. The quiet and elegant courtyard had a complicated structure. It was low-key, but it exuded a luxury that ordinary people did not dare to dream of.
Inside the spacious and bright villa, Su Yu sat on a leather sofa and sipped her tea. The delicate fragrance of the tea filled the air.
She took a deep breath and leaned back comfortably, her face filled with satisfaction.
No matter how she thought about it, she couldn’t understand why she had to suffer for the past five years.

Wasn’t it much better to be treated like a princess at home?
Even her tea was way better than that of the Fu family!
As soon as Su Lingan got home, he immediately ordered the servants to open the windows of Su Yu’s long locked bedroom for some fresh air.
He then urgently purchased a bunch of items that she was accustomed to.
Everything from bed sheets and curtains to pajamas and skincare products were bought according to Su Yu’s preferences.
After everything was ready, Su Lingan went downstairs and looked at the satisfied girl on the sofa. His eyes were filled with a gentle smile.
In the past five years without Su Yu, the six brothers of the Su family had found everyone to be unlikable.
Now that she was back, they finally had a common goal.
They wanted to pamper their little sister as much as possible!

“Yu, I already called our parents and told them. They are on their way back from Australia, but they won’t be home until tonight. You’ve been busy all day. Go get some sleep.”
After some thought, Su Yu went upstairs to her room.
After being tortured for so long, she hadn’t been idle since she returned to Xiangxi.
Even if she wasn’t tired, the child in her stomach needed rest.

After returning to her room, she changed into a set of soft silk pajamas and fell asleep.
Over the past five years, she spent every day trying to figure out how to get Fu Yunian’s attention. In fact, she never even got a good night’s sleep.

This was the best sleep she had in five years.
By the time she woke up, it was already dark.
The Su couple were already home and ran over to her bedroom a few times. However, they didn’t want to wake her up.
It wasn’t until Su Yu woke up and went downstairs that the entire family gathered around her. She was surrounded by so many people that it was kind of hard to breathe.
The entire family sat around her on the sofa. All they could see was the princess of the Su family.
Madam Su cupped Su Yu’s face in her hands as she looked carefully at her. She felt like Su Yu had lost a few pounds and her eyes were red from heartache.
Su Yu braced herself as the entire family checked on her multiple times. It wasn’t until she looked around that she noticed a few people were missing.
“Why aren’t my other brothers here?”
At this point, Su Zhenyuan looked unhappy. Su Jinxi, the eldest brother explained to her.
“They still have some unfinished business in Australia and will return soon. But, when they found out that you were coming back, they got some gifts for you.”
Then, Su Jinxi ordered someone to bring the gifts over.

Her second brother Tianqi got her a black gold card with 600 million yuan in it, as the number symbolized good luck.
Her third brother Yuxing sent a set of international luxury jewelry.
Her fifth brother Chen had bought a listed company that Su Yu had wanted five years ago. As a return gift, he signed it under her name.
Even though her brothers were overseas, their hearts were filled with concern for her.
Su Yu pursed her lips, feeling warm in her heart, “Then I’ll accept them. Help me thank my three brothers.”
But, when Su Zhenyuan glanced at the presents, his face turned ashen and his beard was raised high.
“How dare they try to fool their sister with such trivial gifts. No matter how important their jobs are, how can it be more important than Su Yu? !”
2
The more he spoke, the angrier he got. So, he simply nestled on the sofa and pulled the presents to the side. He was going to teach the three rascals a lesson!
Su Jinxi felt somewhat speechless, spreading his hands helplessly.
“Dad, when Yu left, you said that you would never acknowledge her as your daughter again. Even we couldn’t help her. Why are you going back on your word now?”
Su Zhenyuan turned his head arrogantly and held onto Su Yu’s soft hands as he looked at her with a kind smile.
“Things are different now. Now Su Yu is back and more experienced. She’s even more precious to me now. Of course I gotta dote on her.”
As a man, how could he change his stance so fast?
As Su Yu looked at how her father doted on her, she felt kind of bittersweet.
During those five years, she was just tortured by the Fu family. What kind of experience was that?
After the family chatted with Su Yu for a while, Su Chen suddenly remembered something and said mockingly.
“I heard that Fu Yunian is holding a banquet in Huaxi. He’s already on his way to Xiangxi. After bullying Yu all these years, he still has the nerve to come to Xiangxi to work with our Su family!”
As soon as Su Zhenyuan heard this, he immediately ordered his sons not to attend the banquet.
“From now on, when Fu Yunian is around, none of you are to appear. No one is to work with him!”
Su Zhenyuan’s words were firm and the brothers agreed without hesitation.
But, as Su Yu’s gaze shifted, a strange glint appeared in her eyes.
“Dad, he and I are already divorced. It doesn’t matter anymore. Since he’s offering us money, how can we not accept?”

Su Yu’s delicate face had a sly look that made it hard for others to guess her thoughts.

Back then, Fu Yunian had treated her like dirt. But, she wanted to see how he would react when he saw her again!
…
Inside Huaxi’s banquet hall.

After settling down his grandmother, Fu Yunian waited for the Su family to arrive. His heart was filled with anxiety.
He had come to Xiangxi to hold a banquet this time with the aim of forming a partnership with the richest man here.
Su Chen was currently the CEO of the Su Group, and he had received an invitation letter back then.
Although there were quite a number of high-ranking officials and dignitaries who had arrived today, they had all rushed over from other locations. Only the Lin couple had come from Xiangxi, and Su Chen had not appeared.
If Su Chen did not come, there would have been no need for this banquet!
Just as everyone was discussing amongst themselves, the waiter outside the door suddenly announced that Su Chen had arrived.

Fu Yunian immediately tidied up his suit and stood up to welcome him.
Outside the venue, Su Chen, dressed in a navy blue suit, slowly walked in. His face was exquisite and handsome, and his entire body exuded a noble aura.
However, he did not come alone. Beside him was a woman dressed in fancy clothes and holding onto his arm.

Fu Yunian looked at her and his expression darkened.

That woman was Su Yu!
