Chapter 1352: Chapter 1352: Sharp-tongued

While waiting for the car, Liang Shuzhen suddenly asked, “Why are you in such a hurry to find me? What’s the matter?”

“It’s all because of your grandmother.” Liu Juan couldn’t hide her frustration when mentioning Wang Yinfen, “That damn old hag only knows how to make trouble at home. I thought she was really as tough as she claimed to be, but guess what? Just now, when she was spying at the Su family’s doorstep, she encountered Su Qing and actually ran away instinctively.”

Liang Shuzhen asked seriously, “I’ve only seen Su Qing from a distance, but she’s far less impressive compared to Su Wen, right?”

“Exactly! That’s why I say all she does is cause trouble at home. If she’s even afraid of Su Qing, then how can she stand up to Su Wen?”

“She probably won’t be afraid.” Liang Shuzhen was still quite confident in her grandmother’s ability to cause trouble.

“Your grandmother wants us to place an ad in the newspaper as soon as possible, urging me to come and ask you.”

Liang Wenjing thought for a moment and said, “I wrote a story, transferring the brand story made up by Su Wen onto you. Mom, you are the true heroine in the age of innocence, and the sincere love story should be yours. Su Wen is nothing but a thief who stole our originality.”

At this point, Liang Wenjing revealed a cold smile and sneered, “The Su family will surely be disgraced when the time comes.”

“You always have a way, Shuzhen,” Liu Juan said, excited at the thought, “Should we place the ad in the newspaper then?”

“Not yet, but I’ve already hinted to the colleagues around me. We’ll wait until the matter ferments, then we’ll place the ad in the newspaper in your name, Mom. When it blows up, we’ll have grandma step forward to accuse the Su Wen sisters of being unfilial and neglecting their grandmother for decades. With such a series of attacks, we’ll definitely plunge the Su Wen sisters into hell.”

Liang Shuzhen had been scheming for so long, and it wasn’t just talk.

“What about Zhou Hengyang then? Su Wen has the backing of Zhou Hengyang and the Zhou family. Can we really touch them? Could it harm Dad’s job?” Liu Juan’s biggest fear was affecting her husband’s career.

“Dad is not just anybody, he won’t be affected that easily.” Liang Shuzhen now only looked out for herself; everyone else was beyond her consideration.

“Good, that’s good,” Liu Juan said, rubbing her hands excitedly, already imagining her family’s business overtaking the Su’s and herself finally looking down on those who used to be high and mighty, with them currying favor with her in turn.

Changhe Machinery Factory—

Half an hour before quitting time, Liu Chun couldn’t sit still any longer, packed up his things, and was ready to leave early. As he was going downstairs, he ran into Zhou Hengguang, who was on his way up, accompanied by a stranger he didn’t recognize, Zou Yi.

Liu Chun also had a loose tongue, casually asking, “Who’s this? I haven’t seen him before. Where’s your little tail, Ji Fang? Not following you today? Changed personnel?”

Zhou Hengguang was about to pass him and climb the stairs when he stopped at Liu Chun’s words, looked him up and down, and asked in a deep tone, “Are you in a good mood?”

“I’m being treated to dinner, so of course, I’m in a good mood,” Liu Chun bragged.

Zhou Hengguang raised his eyebrows, “By whom?”

“By Su Qing!” Liu Chun beamed foolishly, “Opportunities to be treated by Su Qing are rare, hahaha… cough, cough…”

Amid his foolish laughter, he was suddenly slapped on the back so hard that he nearly choked on his own laughter. It took him a good while to recover, only to glare furiously at Zou Yi, who had been silent until now.

“Who are you? Why did you hit me?”

Zou Yi silently cursed to himself, thinking if he didn’t hit him, Liu Chun’s continued blabbering would have sealed his fate. However, his face remained adorned with a harmless smile as he introduced himself with unwarranted familiarity, “You must be Liu Chun, right? I’ve heard about you from Third Brother for a long time, and it’s really my good fortune to meet you today. I’m Zou Yi, currently the secretary for Third Brother.”
