The entire CL Company entered a "battle state."
In contrast, Su Li had already fallen into panic.
The first person she thought of was Sheng Chenjin. Just now, Sheng Chenjin himself had appeared and clarified the engagement, which meant she could no longer marry into the Sheng family.
"No, it was clearly him who didn't respond before, leading me to believe we had a future."
"It's not my fault! It's all his fault! If he hadn't not rejected me, how could I have pestered him repeatedly? No, I have to go demand an explanation!"
She muttered to herself and took out her phone, finding the number she had been longing for.
She dialed it. This was the first time she had ever called his number, and she had even secretly memorized it.
The phone rang once and was answered, as if waking her senses.
"The number you have dialed is out of service. Please check and redial."
The prompt repeated, striking her heart and drowning her hope bit by bit.
"How can that be? This is a number my father dialed! Isn't this his contact information?"
Su Li couldn't believe it.
"It must be that I remembered it wrong, I must not have seen it clearly at the time!"
"Father must have his phone number."
She left her room, ran downstairs, and burst into Su Beicheng's room.
As soon as she pushed the door open, she froze. Zhao Yuan was inside.
"What are you doing here?" Su Beicheng was about to speak when he saw Zhao Yuan looking at Su Li with a sullen and unhappy face.
Clearly, she already knew about what happened online.
"What, wasn't the press conference enough? Do you want to trend on hot search again?"
"The Su family giving you power now is not for you to court death!"
Zhao Yuan couldn't hold back. She thought of that girl Su Luo, whose origins were unknown, had managed to outshine her own daughter. Where would she find face in public?
"You can't do anything right all day. Is this how the Su family educates you?" Zhao Yuan said through gritted teeth, putting on a look of deep disappointment.
"Originally, I thought you had Yang Xin's matter in the bag, but you had to make Su Luo's issue a scandal. Now the entire internet knows you plagiarized. I don't know how you'll ever recover!"
Zhao Yuan didn't lay a hand on Su Li in front of Su Beicheng.
"You useless thing!"
Su Beicheng was extremely disappointed in Su Li, and he slapped her across the face.
His face was ashen.
"If it were company matters, I could still say you were disobedient and I was too busy to manage you, and I could still protect you."
"And now? You're restless even at home, causing such trouble. Those old dogs are mocking our family's poor upbringing. Our already unstable collaborations have completely fallen through!"
"Are you satisfied now?!" Su Beicheng grew angrier the more he thought about it, raising his hand and pointing directly at Su Li's face.
"I was even considering handing the company over to you to manage, but I didn't expect you to be so incompetent that even the title of designer was acquired through plagiarism."
"If you had half of Su Luo's ability, I would look at you differently!"
Su Beicheng narrowed his eyes, regret evident in his gaze. He felt that he shouldn't have let this Zhao Yuan and her daughter bully Su Luo when he found her.
In the early years, Su Beicheng only knew how to turn a blind eye, and he hadn't hesitated even with a beast like Wu Jianguo.
Now, it seemed Su Luo was the real cash cow, and Su Li was only fit to stand and take a beating!
Su Beicheng and Zhao Yuan were in a fit of rage, wanting to vent all their frustration with Su Li.
Su Li's expression changed. She didn't resist at all, allowing Su Beicheng and Zhao Yuan to vent their anger verbally.
She collapsed on the floor, her long hair covering her face. She lowered her head, her expression unreadable.
"Look at her, what has she become."
As Zhao Yuan said this with sharp sarcasm, Su Li suddenly laughed, a laugh that was somewhat nonsensical and somewhat deranged.
"Hahahaha, you only know how to criticize me, you never reflect on yourselves." Su Li slowly raised her head.
"I hate you, I hate that you only knew how to scold and criticize me when I made mistakes, without correcting me. Look, what a huge mess I've caused for you now!"
"Do you regret it? Huh? Do you regret it?!"
She ended with a near-hysterical shout.
Su Li didn't wait for their reply.
"Heh, regretting it is useless. I hate the Su Luo of the past, I hate the Shi Xin of the present, but I hate you more!"
"You always said you wanted to nurture your own daughter, give your daughter power, heh." She looked at Su Beicheng and Zhao Yuan as if they were two foul-smelling piles of garbage.
Su Li didn't say anything more. She got up and returned to her room.
Since she couldn't get the phone number, she would go find it.
She left the house and drove to Shengshi Group.
She didn't believe she wouldn't run into Sheng Chenjin at the company.
In fact, Su Li's guess was correct.
As a result, Su Li arrived at Sheng Chenjin's company and had unimpeded access all the way to the president's office door.
Seeing Bai Feng arriving, she seemed to regain her vitality and haughtily raised her head.
"Did Chenjin tell you not to stop me?"
Bai Feng ignored her nonsensical rambling.
He directly opened the door to the president's office and gestured for her to enter.
Su Li was anxious to see Sheng Chenjin and quickly stepped into his office.
Behind the large desk in front of her, the swivel chair turned around, and Sheng Chenjin's sharp gaze fixed on her, as cold and emotionless as could be.
"Chenjin, I..."
Just as she was about to pour out her grievances, Sheng Chenjin raised his hand and interrupted her.
"Wasn't my clarification clear enough? Miss Su, I have no further relationship with you. Please face your own identity."
"If you can understand what I mean, then I won't have waited for you for an hour in vain." xxs壹贰
Su Li's mental state was manic, and she couldn't hear what she didn't want to hear.
She only heard that Sheng Chenjin had waited for her specifically.
Su Li's eyes lit up, and she moved forward, wanting to get closer to Sheng Chenjin.
"Don't overthink it. I want this matter to end soon, and for Miss Su to stop pestering me." Sheng Chenjin saw her intention and stopped her in a cold tone.
Su Li dared not move further. Looking at Sheng Chenjin's terrifying gaze, she felt that taking another step would be a grave mistake.
"I specifically waited for Miss Su today not only to clarify our relationship, but also to resolve the cooperation matters between our two families."
"Although your father is not present, my Sheng family is now unilaterally terminating all cooperation with the Su family." Sheng Chenjin's attitude was indifferent, and he did not look at Su Li's expression.
Su Li opened her mouth to say something, but Sheng Chenjin gave her no chance to speak.
"Miss Su need not say more. Our company has already drafted the termination contract, and Shengshi Group will naturally pay the liquidated damages on time."
