Source Of Calamity - Ch 27
The Su family was located in the north of the city. This area was known as the largest community of villas in the country. There was a small town at the foot of the mountain. Su Yutong was in a very excited mood on the way back. He doubted that everything he experienced today was just a dream. Only pinching his own face confirmed the fact that what had happened was indeed true.
Of course, the business projects that Shen Zhen could provide made Su Yutong drool.
But what surprised him the most was that Shen Zhen promised to take them to attend social gatherings in the future.
The Su family had not attended such gatherings for many years.
No strength, no one to invite them, he and Su Jinghan have been sharpening their heads to squeeze in, but they have always been only able to remain in a small sub circle.
Su Yutong parked the car at the door for the servant to drive the car to the garage, and Su Yutong rushed home like he was an excitable husky.
There was no one in the living room, and he knew that everyone should be in the study now.
Su Yutong’s father didn’t know what happened. He rushed back when his daughter called. There was no other reason, because the person who asked his son to meet was Shen Zhen, the young man who suddenly appeared in everyone’s sight. There were many people who wanted to suck up to Shen Zhen, but most of them couldn’t find a way in.
If his own children could really build a good relationship with Shen Zhen, let’s not say becoming familiar in front of Qin Xing, it would already be a great thing for Qin Xing to even have an impression of them.
“Yu Tong hasn’t come back yet?” Father Su came from the company, having to deal with the mess left by Su Shiqing and his family recently, forced to pretend to be a grandson everywhere.
Everyone knew that the Su family offended Qin Xing this time, and many people threw stones at them while they were down. Father Su was so busy he barely rested, and hated his younger brother and nephew to the core. That family was simply a bunch of troublemakers. Not having done anything good for the family, yet having caused a lot of trouble instead.
The most annoying thing was that after they do something wrong, they could cry innocently and complain that they have been treated unfairly.
Father Su’s mouth twitched again when he thought of this.
He didn’t know what evil he had done to have such a younger brother and nephew.
Su Shiqing’s father was the fifth child in the family, the youngest one, but also the most useless one. He didn’t know anything about family business, and would just forget everything he learned the day after. When going out to socialize and make connections, he would just sit there and wait for others to come to him. Towards this kind of useless thing, the Su family could only spend money to feed him, and didn’t expect him to be able to do things.
However, today’s family meeting still called him up.
Su Jinghan put her elbows on the table, propped her chin with the palm of her hand and said, “He should be here soon. He told me half an hour ago that he is still driving. There may be a traffic jam on the road.”
Father Su: “Jing Han, your posture.”
Su Jinghan sat up straight.
When Su Yutong walked into the study, he saw a large family sitting at the table. Su Yutong restrained his excitement, cleared his throat, and said as he walked over, “I just went to see Shen Zhen, and he said he has a business project that he wants to cooperate with our family.”
Father Su frowned tightly: “You can finish speaking in one breath, don’t play at suspense.”
Su Yutong winked at his sister, walked behind Father Su and said, “Other than this, he also promised to take me and my sister to the social gatherings.”
The former sentence was obviously less exciting than the latter sentence.
Father Su and the several uncles asked almost in unison: “Truly?”
Su Yutong said proudly: “Of course it is true, I don’t get anything for deceiving people with this.”
“However, of course there is a price.” Su Yutong said in a low voice.
The study room became quiet again, yes, such a great benefit could not come without a price.
Father Su: “What price.”
Su Yutong smiled: “Have Su Shiqing be removed from the Su family.”
Su Shiqing’s father, Su Yuan, hurriedly shouted: “What does this mean?! What does Shen Zhen mean? He wants to kick my son out of the Su family?”
Father Su and his brothers turned to look at him together. They took care of this little brother for so many years. They knew that this little brother was a confused idiot, but they didn’t expect him to be so stupid. How did the Su family become targeted recently? Who in the family didn’t know? Even the servants knew that the atmosphere had been tense in the family recently.
Only this little brother was still living in his own world, with his eyes closed, thinking the world was peaceful.
Su Yuan: “I don’t agree! There is no such reason! How could I drive my own children out?”
The juniors bullied his son, he was weak in front of his brothers and dared not say anything, but it was too serious for the child to be expelled from the Su family.
Su Yutong: “Youngest Uncle, it’s not about whether you agree or not.”
Father Su: “How do you talk to your youngest uncle?”
Su Yutong lowered his head obediently.
Father Su said, “Let’s go for a notarization tomorrow, then publish it in the newspaper and issue a draft.”
Su Yuan turned pale with shock: “Eldest Brother!”
Father Su: “You still call me Eldest Brother, you know that now is a critical period, youngest brother, I don’t ask you to make any contribution to the family, I just ask you not to make trouble for the family. It is decided.”
The several brothers also said: “Yes, youngest brother, if you feel sorry for Shi Qing, you can help him in private.”
“Shi Qing is a child of the Su family, but so are Yu Tong and Jing Han. It’s not justified to let Yu Tong and Jing Han lose this good opportunity for Shi Qing.”
“When the Su family is well, everyone will have a good life, right?”
Su Yuan froze on his seat, he couldn’t believe all this.
He only had one child, Su Shiqing, and this child was very much like him.
Now…..was he going to lose this child too?
“If…..” Su Yuan said with difficulty, “You all want Shi Qing to leave the Su family, then remove me as well.”
Everyone fell silent. After a while, Father Su looked at his youngest brother and asked, “Are you sure?”
Su Yuan thought that if he said so, his brothers would back down, so he stiffened his neck and said, “My son is about to be kicked out of the Su family. How can I, his father, turn a blind eye?”
Father Su said lightly, “Okay, then you can leave with Shi Qing.”
Su Yuan was dumbfounded.
Father Su: “Let’s end the meeting, youngest brother, you should leave the Su family tonight and go find your son.”
“Eldest Brother!” Su Yuan couldn’t believe it, “Eldest Brother, you can’t do this!”
Father Su stood at the door: “It is said that an elder brother is like a father. I have taken care of you for so many years. Even if I am really your father, it is time you should be independent. You are forty this year, not fourteen. If you make your own decision, you must learn to bear the consequences.”
The brothers kept their mouths shut and did not dare to speak, and none of them pleaded for Su Yuan.
The atmosphere in the Su family was very strange.
Some people seem to be celebrating the New Year.
While some looked like their old father had died.
Of course, Su Yuan and his family were the latter.
But Shen Zhen didn’t know all this yet, he was busy taking over the unfinished building projects.
When Shen Zhen was finally free, he realized that he hadn’t gone to work in the company for more than a week.
Shen Zhen felt very embarrassed, so he could only call Qin Xing first, and the other end of the phone was quickly connected.
“Xiao Zhen? What’s the matter?”
Shen Zhen: “Uncle, I haven’t been to the company for more than a week.”
Qin Xing laughed: “I made a call to those below to let you be my secretary, so if I don’t say anything, no one will know that you are absent from work.”
Shen Zhen: “…..”
Shen Zhen’s heart was warm, and his tone became softer: “Uncle, then I’ll go directly to your office.”
Qin Xing: “Come on over, there is a gathering tonight, I will take you with me.”
Few people in the company were walking outside the offices now, as working hours were always busy. Unlike the relatively leisurely departments of the media department, other departments barely touched the ground almost every day, but the salary was higher, the monthly salary base being 10,000 yuan, not counting the bonus commission.
The research and development department had the highest commission, and the annual commission bonus of the research and development department was almost hundreds of millions of yuan.
The media department was the department with the lowest basic salary in the whole company.
Shen Zhen got on the elevator.
The elevator stopped on the 18th floor, and a young man walked in, wearing a dark gray suit and with his hair combed back. He was obviously wearing professional attire, but he gave off a rather sloppy feeling.
“Are you going to the top floor?” The young man pressed the elevator on the thirty-sixth floor and gave Shen Zhen a strange look.
Shen Zhen didn’t want to talk at first, but he replied politely: “Yes.”
Shen Zhen brought his previous work ID, and the young man frowned and asked, “You are a small office worker in the media department, what are you doing on the top floor?”
This man talked a lot. Shen Zhen was a little annoyed, but restrained his irritability and said, “I have something to do.”
Young man: “Shen Zhen, right? If you don’t tell me what you’re doing, I’ll put your name down.”
Shen Zhen tilted his head and looked at the young man’s ID badge, which belonged to the management team, named Meng Hui.
Meng? There was no such surname among the wealthy families.
The management was the supervisory department, and it belonged to a department that was sucked up to by others. It usually checks the work of various departments. Of course, if they miss problems during the inspection, they would be unlucky once the problems were exposed.
But the Qin Group had been in operation for so many years, and there were veteran workers in every department, so there would be no problems easily.
So almost everyone wanted to join the supervisory department.
It was easy, had money, and people sucked up to them. Not mentioning the high salaries of the supervisory department, when other departments tried to suck up to them, they could also get more benefits.
Seeing Shen Zhen staring at his badge, Meng Hui proudly puffed up his chest: “Tell me, what are you doing on the top floor?”
Shen Zhen: “Looking for someone.”
Meng Hui laughed: “I’ve seen a lot of people like you, so I advise you not to waste your time.”
Shen Zhen was puzzled: “What do you mean?”
Meng Hui: “Don’t pretend to be stupid, don’t you just want to go to the top floor to try your luck? I’ve seen a lot of girls go there, but this is the first time I’ve seen a guy.”
Shen Zhen: “…..”
It seemed that Uncle was quite popular.
Meng Hui: “What’s your phone number?”
Shen Zhen: “Why?”
Meng Hui: “You wouldn’t happen to not even know this, do you? If you don’t want people to know what you’re doing on the top floor, you’d better show it.”
Was this man a mental case?
Shen Zhen restrained the desire to roll his eyes: “I don’t want to, whoever you want to tell, you can tell whoever you want.”
Meng Hui was taken aback for a moment, but thinking that the other party was advancing by retreating, and said with a sneer, “Okay, don’t regret it.”
Shen Zhen glanced at Meng Hui like he was an idiot.
How did this person get into the supervisory department? Did he have a backing?
He’ll have Brother Ma check it out later.
When the elevator stopped on the 36th floor, Meng Hui said, “If you have thought it over, come here and find me.”
He had made money from countless female staff who wanted to go to the top floor to try their luck. This time, he met a man, so he probably could make even more.
Meng Hui licked his dry lips, sure that Shen Zhen would come to him.
“If you don’t come today, it will be too late.”
