A few seconds later, the call connected. Su Xiaonai considerately turned on the speaker so that Su Jiaojiao could hear the conversation.

“Who is it?”

The boss of the company asked directly, confused who this unknown number might be.

His voice was hoarse from smoking, identifying him as an old smoker. It wasn’t a sound that put people at ease.

This nightmarish voice made Su Jiaojiao drop cold, her back covered in a layer of cold sweat. At that moment, she wished she could rush towards him and punch him in his face.

But in order not to expose her presence, she only gritted her teeth and remained silent.

Su Xiaonai glanced at Su Jiaojiao. She was relieved to see that Su Jiaojiao wasn’t particularly agitated. She couldn’t have Su Jiaojiao disrupt her plan right now.

“Mr. President Xu? I’m Su Xiaonai from the Su Corporation.”

The other end of the phone was silent for a moment, too surprised to talk. In his circle, Su Xiaonai’s beauty was ranked top. It would be awesome if he could sleep with her.

“ah, Xiaonai, right? What’s up?”

‘The comers of Su Xiaonai’s mouth twitched. She didn’t understand why Mr. Xu started calling her by her first name so naturally.

She had never even met him; it was rather rude.

“Haha, Mr. Xu, are you free tonight?”

Mr. Xu was over the moon when he heard the question. He answered hurriedly, afraid that Su Xiaonai would change her mind.

“Yes, yes. Xiaonai, I’ve liked you for a long time.”

Su Xiaonai didn’t know how to reply except to laugh it off and change the subject.

“By the way, does Mr. Xu perhaps know my stepsister, Su Jiaojiao?”

The boss replied without thinking too much about it.

“Ido. She’s young and pretty, and her figure isn’t bad either.”

His compliment sounded so offensive that Su Jiaojiao suddenly stood up.

She dashed in front of Su Xiaonai and tried to snatch the phone from her.

She couldn’t wait to start throwing curses into the phone.

Su Xiaonai quickly stopped her and gently pushed her away. Then, she turned around and continued trying to get information out of his mouth.

“Oh? Did something happen between the two of you?”

Her question sounded like a friendly tease, and Mr. Xu was almost flattered. Now in a good mood, he started talking.

“Yeah, I just met with your sister this morning.”

“Where?”

Su Xiaonai guided him patiently. As if he was recalling a happy memory, President Xu narrowed his lustful eyes.

“In bed.”

Su Xiaonai was starting to get angry. This was what happened when she tried to comfort her.

“Are you stupid?

“He’s said so himself, but you’re still struggling, trying to defend the perpetrator.”

Su Jiaojiao stood up abruptly and met Su Xiaonai’s eyes.

“Shut up. You don’t have the right to say that.”

Seeing how stupid her stepsister was, Su Xiaonai was so angry she burst into laughter.

“What a brainless bimbo. No wonder you were tricked!”

Tears welled up in Su Jiaojiao’s eyes. She raised her hand, wanting to slap Su Xiaonai, but Su Xiaonai grabbed her wrist quickly.

Her hand stopped in midair.

Su Xiaonai smiled coldly.

“Why? Do you still want to hit me?

“Where’s your manners?”

She had wanted to add that she deserved all this, and that it was a miracle she got into college with her intelligence.

But her heart softened and she didn’t say it out loud. She was afraid that she would hurt Su Jiaojiao again, that she would think about hurting herself.

Su Jiaojiao’s wrist hurt from the grip. She struggled with all her might, but she couldn’t break free. She could only whimper.

“You guys bully me!”

Su Xiaonai was at a loss for words. She let go of Su Jiaojiao’s wrist and let out a long sigh.

“Have you calmed down?”

Su Jiaojiao did not answer. She picked up her bag from the sofa and walked towards the door without looking back.

Su Xiaonai felt helpless and took a deep breath. She thought that she should give Su Jiaojiao some time to think. After all, being betrayed by her own mother was hard for anyone to accept.

At this moment, the secretary knocked on the door and walked in. She looked like she wanted to say something but hesitated.

um, boss…”

Su Xiaonai didn’t like her hesitant look.

“Just say it.”

The secretary only spoke after receiving permission.

“Miss Su Jiaojiao doesn’t have the money to get a taxi downstairs.”

Su Xiaonai’s hand, which was flipping through a piece of paper, paused. The corners of her mouth froze for a moment before she spoke.

“Arrange for a car to take her home safely.”

The secretary nodded, indicating that she understood what Su Xiaonai had said..
