After returning back from their trip, Suzy and others dispersed and went on their own way. After leaving the airport, Suzy picked her uncle on the way. After not working for a week, a lot of works were left incomplete and hence, Suzy decided to discuss things with her uncle(assistant) and catch up with the work.
After covering up the whole part, Suzy and her uncle decided to part ways. Before getting down from the car, he gave her an interesting smile and said "Don't go back to your home. Go to your grandparents house…you'll find something interesting. Ah..and also, don't forget to cover your face" with that said, he left without explaining further.
Confused as well as curious, Suzy thought to visit her grandparents since it had been a long time.
Driving her car to the Li mansion, Suzy was surprised to find that a lot of cars were going in and out of the Li mansion. For a minute, Suzy almost thought that she had come to the wrong place.
Outside the Li mansion, a few bodyguards were guarding the gate and it could be said that there were few more inside.
Getting down from her car, Suzy looked at the bodyguards with a weird gaze. Making her way through the gate, she found a few familiar faces standing in threes and fives and were discussing something. And almost everyone was wearing a black dress and she could see a few carrying flower bouquets. For a moment, Suzy could not help but think 'Did my father perish?' but then, seeing those high-class people, she thought again 'No no…that old chap is not even capable of calling a rat, how will he be able to call a cat' and then she thought that something must have happened to her grandparents but then, recalling her uncle's expression, she thought that it might not be true. curious to know what exactly was happening she picked up her speed and made her way towards the back garden. On the way, Suzy faintly heard a few people mention her name during their conversation but Suzy did not think much.
On the way, as she got closer to the garden, Suzy's heartbeat also gradually increased. Scared that something might have happened to her grandparents, She almost rushed inside. Reaching the garden where most of the people were gathered, Suzy saw her grandparents sitting under the shade with a dark expression. Seeing that they were fine, she finally relaxed. When Suzy was about to make her way towards grandparents, she suddenly noticed that on the other side, a group of reporters were crowding and interviewing.
Curios, Suzy made her way through the group only to find Li Chao and his family wearing black dress and were answering the reporters with a sad expression. Just then, Suzy heard one of the reporters ask
"Mr. Li Chao, I heard that there was some fight between you and your daughter, what do you say?"
"Sigh….well we did fight because of some things but in the end, she is still my daughter"
Just then, Li Xiying who was sniffing at the side spoke with a choked voice "Sniff….though she was arrogant and selfish, though she never liked me and nitpicked on me, I never hated her but instead every time she tried to find fault on me, I tried to correct myself thinking that she was telling everything for my own good. Sniff…though she never liked me and hated me and my mom, I always wished that she would live for long but….." with that said, Li Xiying once again broke into tears. Standing next to Li Xiying, Feng mian could not bear to look at her daughter cry so she pulled her into her arms and consoled her gently. Li Chao also had a pained expression on his face seeing his daughter cry.
Consoling Li Xiying, Feng mian sighed and said "Sorry, after hearing that her sister was dead, she had been crying like this"
Hearing Feng mian's words, Suzy was startled. Pointing at herself, she thought 'Me? When did I? wait..what the hell is going on here?'
Just then, another reporter asked "Mr. Li Chao, not long ago, Chairman Li announced that Suzy will be the heir of Li family and soon after Ms. Suzy took over Li corporation the company also gradually rose into a better position and it is estimated that sooner the company is going to reach a new stage. Now since Ms. Suzy is no longer there, who will take over the company"
Without even thinking twice, Li Chao said excitedly "of course it's me" hearing his answer, the reporters all looked at him weirdly. Thinking that his tone was wrong, he coughed and explained "I mean to say that since the company is not stable so after the company stabilizes, the company will be handed over to my daughter Li Xiying. I believe, in the hands of my daughter, the company will reach to a new level"
As soon as Li Chao said, Li Xiying said solemnly "After I take over the company, I will make sure that the company will thrive with benefits. By doing this, I hope my dead sister will rest in peace"
Hearing the father and daughter's answer, the reporter felt that they were weird. Being a reporter, they were well aware that the father and daughter were not sad but were only acting and they also knew that even if Li Xiying put all her brain into the company, she would not be able to succeed like Suzy. At this moment, the reporters felt that Suzy's death was really unfair.
At this time, one of the reporters asked:
"Mr. Li Chao, since Ms. Suzy had not written a will, then is it true that the properties under Ms. Suzy's name will be donated to orphanage and charity?"
Startled, Li Chao hurriedly said "of course not…all the properties under Suzy's name will be transferred to Li Xiying's name. The orphanage which was taken care of by Suzy will also be taken up by my daughter Xiying. Anything related to the orphanage and all the decision will be taken by my daughter"
By now, the reporters felt that this father and daughter duo were really eager to snatch everything. Even if they did not want to ask, it was their duty but the reporter could not help but think 'shouldn't they say that it is not an appropriate time to discuss these things? But why are these two very eager to announce these things in funeral?'
Seeing that the reporter's expression was not right, Li Xiying hurriedly opened her mouth to show her sincerity.
"Since my sister in dea---"
"Enough"
Before Li Xiying could complete her sentence, a cold and aged voice was heard from the side. Turning their head, they saw that Elder Mr. Li and Elder Mrs. Li were walking towards with a blackface.
Whenever Elder Mr. Li heard his son saying that his daughter was dead, he felt a sharp pain in his heart and at the same time, he also felt annoyed.
"Father.." Li Chao stepped forward to speak
"Shut up. Keep that shitty mouth of your's close. How many times should I say that My granddaughter is not dead"
"Father…I know that you are hurt and probably will not believe but it's the truth. Suzy is dead"
"Shut up…"
"Father, no matter what you say, it is still the truth, why don't you believe me?'
"Because it's a lie. My granddaughter is not dead"
"Do you have proof?" Li Chao asked
"That…" tongue-tied, Elder Mr. Li was unable to answer. Just then, a sweet and charming voice was heard within the crowd "I have"
