Chapter 376 - 186: Specializing in Taking the Blame
Su Qinwu was stunned, staring at the diagnostic reports of the two pieces of information with speechless disbelief... She really never expected that someone would actually investigate this far and present such evidence right in front of her! The evidence was irrefutable, how was she supposed to explain this, how could she exonerate herself?
But... how exactly did this guy discover it? Her actions were swift when she made a move, and even if there were flaws, no one could have found her evidence and leverage in such a short time. Unless... the other party had been watching her all along!
Thinking of this, Su Qinwu looked at Du Chenshuang with eyes filled with reproach and disgust, as well as deep fear and hatred!
It was quite clear that Du Chenshuang’s sudden visit and revelations had already caused significant trouble for Su Qinwu.
The Su Family was known for being petty and protective among themselves. If they found out that she inadvertently put the Su Family in such an embarrassing position, they’d be furious and surely ruin her! Su Qinwu really wanted to explain that she never intended to harm the Su Family, she just wanted to teach Su Qixin, that vile woman, a lesson. But even if she said so, probably no one would be willing to believe her...
At this moment, Su Qinwu finally understood what it meant to weep but shed no tears. She turned her pitiful and captivating eyes towards Su Yuan, hoping that this adoptive father would step up to defend her. But the reality was harsh, Su Yuan was too angry to even help, how could he possibly excuse her?
"I... I really didn’t do this, how could I have such capabilities... Dad, Mom, please believe me, okay?" Su Qinwu’s mouth was stiff, she knew that no matter what, she couldn’t confess at this point, or everything would be truly over.
Unfortunately, the people present no longer believed her words. Du Chenshuang had no interest in continuing the questioning, instead, they pulled out other documents, "This concerns the events in Nocturnal Song City, along with the inexplicable disappearance of vast sums of wealth..."
"What are these?" Su Qinwu asked, yet Du Chenshuang didn’t even spare her a glance.
"Miss Su seems to be someone who forgets significant events? These things happened just a few months ago, and now you’ve already forgotten?" Seeing as Su Qinwu had already rewritten the layout of the news, under inertial thinking, Du Chenshuang also believed that the events in Nocturnal Song City were her doing.
"What forgotten? I don’t even know about these things!" Su Qinwu cursed silently; though she did indeed change the news layout content, she had never even heard of this nonsense about Nocturnal Song City and the transfer of vast wealth...
The naive Miss Su Qinwu thought that sulking for several months would make Du Chenshuang believe her words? How naive!
Carrying the blame, Miss Su Qinwu had to face a situation even more terrible and awkward than Su Qixin’s. Not only would she face severe punishment from the Su Family, but also an investigation from General Qin’s forces, and... handing over that huge sum of money, honestly explaining how these unbelievable actions were accomplished! Interstellar network holding such a fatal flaw left those in the know rather uneasy.
Su Yanjing and Grand Uncle Su Lu couldn’t have imagined that after such an intense and demanding battle, an even more shocking piece of news awaited them in reality... Su Qinwu, indeed worthy of being Su Changdao’s daughter, her expertise in causing trouble and courting disaster is excellent.
"Hehe... Junior Brother, you seem to have made no progress. Such performance is really disappointing!" The woman with a bun styled hair was faintly sweating, her whole body exuding a warm fragrant aura, pinching Su Lu’s chin with a rather menacing aura.
Confronted with this somewhat sinister fellow sect senior, Su Lu expressed that encountering her was truly an awkward situation for him.
"Oh, it’s just that Senior Sister’s skills are too good..." Su Lu said with a chuckle, awkwardly, hoping she would let go.
Su Lu and the woman before him both inherited the same lineage of Ancient Martial Techniques. However, compared to Su Lu, who was still slightly amateurish in the Ancient Martial Arts, the bun-haired woman was already quite exceptional, reaching the "slightly accomplished" stage of the Ancient Martial Techniques.
When the chaotic battle began, Su Lu could only watch as his Senior Sister led a surprising force from the skies, swiftly taking out his teammates, and then forcibly dragged him out of the mecha cockpit for a duel in Ancient Martial Techniques that lasted over half an hour...
Ahem... of course, during these over half an hour, Su Lu was entirely in a beaten state, with almost no chance of winning.
Alas... it’s indeed tough being a man these days; first, there was Su Jiameng crushing his self-confidence everywhere, and now there is a Senior Sister who had been oppressing him since childhood, entering a sadistic mode to torture him... The pride of being a big man is shattered to pieces.
"Senior Sister..." Su Lu said helplessly, his face swollen like a pig’s head, raising both hands in surrender, "Can we admit defeat and surrender peacefully?"
The bun-haired woman twitched her mouth, watching Su Lu’s unserious face, directly raising her fist intending to give him a punch on the right eye. One left and one right would match perfectly, making him suitable for display as an Earth Era’s national treasure panda in an ancient cultural zoo.
But before she could act, a clear and stern voice echoed from the sky, "Stop!"
The bun-haired woman and Su Lu exchanged glances for a long time, released her fist, and casually tossed the enervated Su Lu aside. She looked up at the armed mecha in the sky and sneered, "It seems your charm is not bad after all..."
Someone actually came as a hero to rescue the ’beauty,’ Su Lu’s junior brother indeed has a good fortune... hehe...
Judging by that mecha’s appearance, it was apparent that the person inside had also experienced a not-easy battle before coming here, and the mecha was quite damaged.
Su Lu simply lay on the ground, pretending to be dead, muttering, "That’s my elder brother’s great-grandson, also my grand-nephew, who usually calls me Grand Uncle... What’s so wrong about him coming to save me..."
Upon hearing this, the bun-haired woman gave a more sympathetic look, and her words nearly choked Su Lu, "It seems you are worse off than I expected. If it weren’t for the ’Grand Uncle’ title, no one would come to save you at all..." (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, you’re welcome to vote and give monthly tickets on Qidian (qidian.com).
