Chapter 24 The Su Family’s Shares
Listening to everyone’s praise, Gu Chen took a few steps forward and hugged Su Yu’s slender waist. He looked at everyone and said, “My wife graduated from Juilliard!”
“Hiss…”
When he said this, everyone present took in a breath of cold air.
Juilliard? That was the second-ranked music academy in the world. The requirement for recruiting students was strict. There were probably not even two in the entire Imperial Capital!
Everyone looked at the petite Su Yu in shock and admiration. Someone asked in confusion, “Didn’t they say that President Gu’s wife was abducted and lived in the countryside since she was young?”
“That’s right! Didn’t they say that Mrs Gu had a difficult time when she was young? The piano was a luxury for ordinary families in the countryside!”
“How did Mrs Gu get into Juilliard?”
Su Yu was not angry at the questions from the crowd. She kept a warm smile on her face.
Su Yu organized her words and looked up at the crowd, she said slowly, “I was indeed kidnapped when I was young and sold to a remote mountain area. My adoptive parents wanted me to become my brother’s child bride when I grew up. One night when I was 14 years old, I risked my life to escape.”
Su Yu had a faint smile on her face, as though she was telling an insignificant story. However, everyone present could feel the despair of a 14-year-old girl.
Gu Chen frowned and stared blankly at the young girl in front of him. She was weak and tenacious, as though all the difficulties in the world could not hit her. Or perhaps she was good at disguising herself. She must have learned this from somewhere?
She learned to hide and to please everyone!
“After that, I went to the city and started to set up a stall to earn money. I worked to earn money. When I had the ability, I started to go to school. I got a scholarship for every year!”
When she said this, Su Yu’s small face was full of pride. Everyone was happy for this hardworking girl. Only Su Wen looked at Su Yu with guilt in his eyes. No matter how much he disliked her, he had never expected her to lead such a life.
After so many years, Su Yu was a girl with no one to rely on. It should be very difficult, right?
Su Yu smiled brightly as if she had the power to warm people’s hearts. She looked at Gu Chen and continued, “After that, I went abroad to study. My musical talent was not bad and I was selected by Juilliard College. You knew the rest of the story…”
Gu Chen raised his hand and caressed Su Yu’s hair tenderly. His eyes were filled with heartache.
After listening to Su Yu’s story, many people started to praise her. “I can’t believe that Madam Gu could be so outstanding in such an environment.”
“Brother Su Wen has a good daughter!”
“As expected of the Miss of Imperial Capital. She is indeed outstanding!”
Listening to everyone’s praise, Su Wen’s expression was filled with pride, he looked at everyone and announced, “Since Su Yu is my daughter and also a member of the Su family, My Su family group will have her share. I will gift 10% of the shares of my Su family group to my eldest daughter, Su Yu. Firstly, it will make up for the suffering she has suffered for so many years. Secondly, it will be a token of my appreciation as a father.”
Su Wen’s face was filled with love as he turned to look at Su Yu who was beside him.
Su Yu’s eyes were filled with tears as she sobbed gratefully, “Thank you, Father!”
Then, she lowered her head and cried so hard that she could not speak.
Gu Chen stood at the side and gently patted Su Yu’s shoulder, comforting her softly.
“I don’t agree…”
Before Su Zhen could finish her words, Fang Yan covered her mouth. Fang Yan said sternly, “Shut up! At this time, do you want to make your father angry?”.
Su Zhen’s eyes were spitting fire. She looked at Fang Yan and said, “The Su family is mine. Why should I give it to that B*tch, Su Yu? This b*tch wants to take everything that belongs to us! Brother Gu Zhen, Father, Su family, Mother, you have to stop her!”
