Chapter 444 That’s My Big Sis! (1)

After their long weekend at the island resort, Su Xiaofei received a call saying that she was needed at Bluemedia's Shenjing Branch as soon as possible. She and Lu Qingfeng decided to send her mother home and together, they would go to Shenjing for their appointments.

Lu Qingfeng was more than willing to accompany her on her sudden trip as he also needed to have a word with his grandfather regarding his ascension in their company. A month after his wedding to Su Xiaofei, they were also expected to pay respect to their elders.

Su Xiaofei was unwilling to leave her mother alone at home, but she also knew that she couldn't leave her Uncle Fang to deal with all the important issues at the company alone.

"It's fine, Feifei. Do what you need to do. I won't be going anywhere." Yun Qingrong patted her daughter's hand as Su Xiaofei hesitated to immediately leave with her husband.

"If you are sure..."

"I'm sure." Yun Qingrong insisted. "I had a wonderful weekend because of you and Xiao Feng, but I also know I cannot take both of your time from work much longer."

Su Xiaofei remained silent as she looked at her mother's face. Even though Yun Qingrong had already had her surgeries to remove most of the cancer cells, the chemotherapy was making her more sick than ever. Tears were welling up in her eyes as she looked at her mother's fragile body.

"Fine." Su Xiaofei answered and turned to look outside the window. She wanted to cry, but she needed to put on a brave facade for her loved ones' sake. She was aware that her mother was fighting her illness for her too.

They didn't speak the remainder of their trip to Shenjing and Su Xiaofei was thankful that her husband didn't probe her any further. It must be obvious that she didn't want to spend too much time away from her mother and she feared that it might strain her relationship with Lu Qingfeng if it persisted.

When they arrived at Shenjing, Lu Qingfeng accompanied her to Bluemedia's Shenjing Branch and they received so much attention from the employees. Zhang Ling was already there, waiting for their arrival and she immediately ran towards Su Xiaofei.

"What's wrong?" Su Xiaofei frowned as soon as the elevator closed, bringing the three of them to the top floor of the building.

"President Su, remember when the new investors asked if they could meet Full Moon? The rest of the girls agreed, but they aren't really comfortable with the arrangements."

Su Xiaofei fell silent on that. She wouldn't have agreed on it too, but since Fang Yi was in charge during her short trip, he was the one who gave the go signal. It would be disrespectful on her part to overrule his decision at this point, but she couldn't possibly turn a blind eye to the four young women that were under her wing.

"Could you run a quick background check on those investors? If possible, give me the venue of the meeting. I would like to accompany the girls." She told Zhang Ling.

Zhang Ling glanced at her young master, asking the unspoken question. If she had to rely on Bluemedia's resources, it would surely take a lot of time before she could deliver the report to their mistress.

Lu Qingfeng nodded and Zhang Ling released a sigh she didn't know she was holding. Of course, being the madam of the Lu family, it was Su Xiaofei's right to use the family resources at will, but Zhang Ling thought that her mistress hadn't realized this yet.
