She said ‘Rong Shengming’, not ‘Grandfather Rong’...
But what happened just now was shocking. Other than Rong Shengming himself raising his head with a puzzled look, no one else noticed anything unusual.
Director Yan valued Su Ye so much. How could Liu Bi refuse such a small request?
Rong Ruo did not dare to say anything. Her school uniform was full of wrinkles.
Initially, she was quite unconvinced that she was in trouble. However, ever since Director Yan said that as long as Su Ye wanted to pursue the matter, she might be sentenced to several years in prison, she was completely dumbfounded..
After everyone left, Su Ye walked to the door and closed it casually.
Rong Shengming’s turbid voice sounded from behind, “What do you want to talk to me about?”
Su Ye was also leaning against the door, her posture a little lazy. She tilted her head slightly and looked at Rong Shengming, who was sitting on the chair.
All the humiliation that the grandfather and granddaughter suffered today was caused by her.
Although this was nothing compared to the experience of her father, Su Chenzhuo, in the past.
Su Ye lowered her gaze, but her tone was very relaxed. “Let’s talk about... what happened in the past.”
Rong Shengming subconsciously raised his head to look at her.
His shocked and confused expression seemed as if he could not believe what he had heard.
Su Ye took two steps towards him and went straight to the point. “Who ordered you to make those false testimonies to the media back then?”
As soon as she finished speaking, Rong Shengming’s entire body stiffened.
How did she know about that?!
Could it be that Su Jinyang told her about it? But how old was Su Jinyang back then?
Rong Shengming avoided her gaze and didn’t dare to look her in the eye.
An inexplicable light flashed in her eyes, as if she could see through him, making him feel a little afraid.
This feeling felt familiar...
He didn’t know what to think, but Rong Shengming hesitated for a while and then said cautiously, “Who exactly are you?”
“Who am I?”
Su Ye touched her chin, and the corners of her lips curled into a sly smile. “I’m Su Ye.”
She answered, but it was the same as not answering.
They were both called Su Ye, but which Su Ye was she?
The more nonchalant she was, the more Rong Shengming felt his scalp go numb and his whole body trembled. He changed the way he asked, “What’s your purpose in asking about what happened back then? !”
Su Ye felt that his questions were very stupid. “Of course it’s to avenge my great-aunt and great-grandfather.”
Rong Shengming laughed self-deprecatingly. He almost thought that the person had returned. He stabilized his trembling hands. “If you want to seek justice, find someone else. What testimonies? I didn’t do it! I don’t know!”
Su Ye knew that he was going to do this. She smiled brightly. “Alright, you can’t answer my questions. I’m in a bad mood, so I can only pursue your granddaughter’s case.”
Rong Shengming gritted his teeth when he heard this.
Rong Ruo was really ruining things.
He thought for a moment and sneered. “Do you think that our family will be afraid...”
He suddenly stopped mid-sentence. He wanted to say that the Rong family was not unfamiliar with the police station, but in the blink of an eye, the person his son knew was just a small police station chief.
In front of Director Yan, he had to think twice before saying a word.
Moreover, what had just happened had thoroughly offended the Zhai family. The Rong family was probably going to...
He seemed to have thought of something and suddenly had some confidence. He raised his head and said, “Don’t underestimate us too much. Do you think that we won’t be able to do it without those collaborations? We still have...”
“A few factories in the suburbs that are heavily polluted?” Su Ye said.
“You!” Rong Shengming never expected Su Ye to think of that as well. Besides, she even knew about the factory being heavily polluted...
Oh no, no wonder Director Yan left early..
He had to inform Rong Qishan as soon as possible and ask him to deal with it fast! He had to protect the factories!
Just as he was thinking about it, his phone suddenly rang.
It was Rong Qishan calling.
Rong Shengming ignored Su Ye’s presence and picked up the call.
Just as he was about to speak, he heard Rong Qishan wail, “Oh no, Dad! The higher-ups have sealed up our factories! They’re saying that our pollution levels are too high! They’re even going to fine us a huge sum of money!”
“Director Yan did that?”Rong Shengming immediately stood up from his chair.
Rong Qishan denied it.
Rong Shengming’s expression softened. “If it’s not him, then it’ll be easy...”
However, he didn’t even relax for a second, Rong Qishan continued, “They’re... They’re more powerful than Director Yan... it was... It was director Yu who personally came down to investigate... I heard him reporting to someone on the phone, and he called that person Mr. Bo in a respectful tone... Dad, the Mr. Bo he mentioned couldn’t be... that kid, Yunli, right? He is rich, but it’s not to the extent that director Yu would treat him that way, right? Dad! Who did we offend?”
Hearing his son’s flustered tone, Rong Shengming suddenly lost his strength and dropped his phone on the floor.
The room was so quiet that a pin drop could be heard. Although his phone was not on loudspeaker mode, Su Ye heard the whole conversation.
She frowned and unhappily sent a text to Yan Zhengwei.
[There’s no need to go to the suburbs anymore. Someone has done it in advance.]
Rong Shengming was utterly disheartened. His eyes were filled with fear as he looked at Su Ye.
He thought about it again and again, but Su Ye had blocked all the roads...
No matter what, Rong Ruo was his only granddaughter, and he could not sit by idly.
From what Su Ye had said, she was already fully confident about what had happened back then.
Even if he did not say it now, Su Ye would not let him off either. Perhaps he would cause the Rong family to suffer even more. At that time, he would still have to say it..
“I... I’ll tell the truth...”
Ten minutes later, Su Ye came out of the office.
Rong Shengming admitted to his actions back then. He admitted that he had the guidance of an expert behind him. He also promised that if Su Ye would need him in the future, he could testify at any time.
In any case, he had already lost everything.
Unfortunately, the person who had instructed him to do these things had been contacting him unilaterally through email.
He did not know the true identity of that person. He only knew that that person was related to Skynet. He did not know the exact authority of that person.
Su Ye knew that Rong Shengming was not lying. If not for that, with the Rong family’s status, he would never even know what Skynet was.
Skynet...
The chip...
It had been a long time since she had heard those words...
It seemed that she would have to wait until he got her inheritance back.
Fortunately, she had a someone on her side, so it would be much faster.
In less than a day, Director Yan forcefully refuted the rumors for Su Ye and revealed Rong Ruo’s true identity. The news had already spread around the school. The discussions outside were insanely heated. Those who had previously badmouthed Su Ye in class felt that it was quite a slap in the face. As the center of the conversation, Su Ye was very calm and had already started to busy herself with other things.
At 4:30 PM, ‘Society’s Master Zhai’ joined the Grandpa Group.
Ten minutes later, ‘Anti-Vice and Anti-Corruption, Society Depends on Everyone’ joined the Grandpa Group.
Anti-Vice and Anti-Corruption, Society Depends on Everyone: Hello everyone, I am the Chief of the Kyoto Police Bureau, Yan Zhengwei, please take care of me.
One second later, ‘Society’s Master Zhai’ changed his WeChat name to ‘The Law-Abiding Little Zhai’.
Although Zhai Siqiao and Yan Zhengwei were younger than Bo Zhan and the others, they were old enough to be grandfathers in ancient times.
Su Ye left the Grandpa Group with satisfaction. Her gaze swept across WeChat.
Then, her fingers paused and sent out a message.
Her Ancestor: Did you ask someone to seal off the Rong family’s factories?
The other party replied in a second.
Treasure Basin: You’re welcome.
Su Ye’s mouth twitched. He stole her lead and even asked the director who was a level higher than Weiwei to work for him.
She was quite unhappy.
He was still ‘You’re welcome’ though.
Did she thank him?
She couldn’t help but want to ridicule him, but considering that he had helped her after all, she couldn’t be too mean.
Her Ancestor: I am embarrassed.
After sending the message, she put on his headphones, opened her brand-new physics book, and scribbled.
She definitely couldn’t understand it.
Three minutes later, the screen lit up again with a new message.
Treasure Basin: Good, I will pick you up from school tonight.
Su Ye stared at the message for a few seconds, puzzled.
