Chapter 51: Chapter 51: Kneel, Kowtow, Apologize

Old Madam Su's body trembled as she said with disbelief, "Director Ye, you... you aren't joking with us, are you?"

In Old Madam Su's view, it was already quite exceptional for Tianba Group to offer a cooperation of one billion with the Su Family, let alone three billion.

Thus, when Ye Fan and Su Ruoxue brought back the cooperation agreement worth three billion just before, her first thought was that the agreement was fake, which led her to allow Su Tianhao to tear it to shreds.

"When do I have the time to joke with you? What, you don't believe I signed a three billion deal with Miss Su?" Li Changhong said icily.

Ye Fan pointed to the shredded cooperation agreement on the floor. "The agreement has already been torn to shreds!"

"What? The agreement was torn? Who did it?"

Following Ye Fan's gesture to the scraps of paper strewn on the ground, Li Changhong exploded in fury.

"Him!" Ye Fan pointed towards Su Tianhao.

With Ye Fan pointing at him, Su Tianhao's face turned green. He had never imagined Ye Fan would be so unscrupulous as to tell Li Changhong that he was the one who tore the agreement—wasn't that asking Li Changhong to kill him?

Li Changhong glared at Su Tianhao and with burning anger said, "Well, well, you again, you scoundrel! You even dare to tear up the cooperation agreement I personally signed. It seems you're really tired of living!"

With that, Li Changhong approached Su Tianhao and delivered a fierce kick to Su Tianhao's face.

Su Tianhao cried out in pain, covering his face with one hand and his head with the other as he said hurriedly, "Chairman Li, it's a misunderstanding, Chairman Li!"

"A misunderstanding after tearing up my cooperation agreement?"

Li Changhong was about to burst with rage. He had never been so furious before, and the thought of his son, Li Shihao, being indirectly crippled because of Su Tianhao made his anger even more uncontrollable as he ferociously kicked Su Tianhao's body repeatedly.

It was fortunate that the Legal Department's director informed him in time that Li Shihao had signed a cooperation agreement with Su Tianhao, prompting him to rush to Su Corporation.

Otherwise, if Ye Fan and Su Ruoxue were targeted by the Su Family and Ye Fan, in his anger, decided to uproot Tianba Group, then who would he turn to?

The more Li Changhong thought about it, the angrier he became. One kick followed another, directed at Su Tianhao, causing him so much pain that tears streamed down his face.

"Ouch! Ouch!"

"Grandma, what do we do now?" Su Yue panicked.

Su Tianhao was her biological older brother; she couldn't just stand by and watch Su Tianhao get beaten to death by Li Changhong.

Old Madam Su's aged face trembled as she moved forward to plead, "Chairman Li, Tianhao knows he's wrong. Please, stop before you kill him!"

"Get lost!"

Li Changhong shouted furiously, "You old thing, do you know that scoundrel nearly got me killed? If you dare to meddle further, do you believe I'll deal with you as well?"

Seeing Chairman Li about to hit her, Old Madam Su stumbled hastily back.

"You dare to mess with me, watch if I don't beat you to death, you scoundrel!" Li Changhong went at Su Tianhao once more with heavy blows.

His fury knew no bounds, and it was only after he had kicked until he was completely out of strength that Li Changhong finally stopped, leaving Su Tianhao battered and nearly fainting.

After dealing with Su Tianhao, Li Changhong turned to Ye Fan and Su Ruoxue and said, "Mr. Ye, Miss Su, I am truly sorry. It's my lack of discipline that has caused you trouble!"

"Chairman Li is being too polite!" Su Ruoxue said, taken aback by the courtesy.

Ye Fan said indifferently, "By cutting the losses in time, we've avoided serious consequences. Let's leave it at that. Sending another copy of the agreement shouldn't be a problem, right?" Discover tales on m_vl_em_p_yr

"No problem at all, absolutely no problem. I'll go back and sign it right away!" Li Changhong said hastily.

Before leaving, Li Changhong gave Su Tianhao a vicious glare, "You scoundrel, if you dare to lead my son astray again, see how I'll deal with you! And remember, Miss Su is not someone you can offend. If I ever hear that you've affronted Miss Su again, see how I'll finish you off!"

"Yes, yes, yes, I won't dare anymore!"

Su Tianhao's face was stricken, tears swirling in his eyes; he had no doubts that Li Changhong would kill him. Sёarᴄh the novel(F~)ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Hmph!"

After giving Su Tianhao a stern glance, Li Changhong finally turned around and left the Su Corporation.

Once Li Changhong was gone, a group of Su Family members first looked at the battered Su Tianhao and then at Ye Fan and Su Ruoxue.

Woosh!

After a brief dead silence, a huge uproar erupted at the scene.

"Holy moly! I didn't expect the three billion cooperation agreement that Ye Fan and Su Ruoxue brought back to be real; even Chairman Li Changhong came in person to testify!"

"Yeah, we were already grateful that Tianba Group was willing to collaborate with us on a billion, but now they've directly entered into a thirty billion cooperation with us—Ye Fan and Su Ruoxue are incredible!"

"Just now, I thought the cooperation agreement was forged, that I was seeing things! But it turns out it's Su Tianhao who's nothing compared to Su Ruoxue!"

"Su Ruoxue has always been more capable than Su Tianhao. If it weren't for Old Madam Su insisting on supporting Su Tianhao, he'd be nothing!"

For a moment, many members of the Su Family spoke their minds, especially some Su Family Elders, who openly criticized Su Tianhao regardless of Old Madam Su's feelings.

Seeing that a Su Family Elder said he was inferior to Su Ruoxue, Su Tianhao suppressed his pain and said to Old Madam Su, "Grandma, Grandma, you must stand up for me!"

"Just now Ye Fan deliberately incited Li Changhong to hit me; Grandma, you saw it with your own eyes, Ye Fan must be severely punished, and so must Su Ruoxue—Grandma, you must seek revenge for me!"

Hearing Su Tianhao's howl, Old Madam Su's face turned ashen; she too hadn't expected things to turn out this way.

Most importantly, Li Changhong had personally acknowledged signing the thirty billion cooperation with Su Ruoxue, which was a very pleasant surprise for Old Madam Su.

Once the cooperation commenced, the Su Family was sure to become part of the First-Rate Clans in Central Plains. Storming into the First-Rate Clans had always been a dream for Old Madam Su; compared to Su Tianhao getting beaten up, advancing into the First-Rate Clans was obviously more important.

"Those who do wrong will eventually destroy themselves; this is all your own doing!" Su Ruoxue angrily said.

Even if Ye Fan hadn't said that the cooperation agreement had been torn up by Su Tianhao, under Li Changhong's powerful presence, the other people of the Su Family would have spoken up anyway.

Ye Fan ignored Su Tianhao and turned to Old Madam Su, "Grandma, by this point, it's obvious that we've won this wager. As the helmsman of the Su Family, in front of so many clan members, you wouldn't be partial and commit fraud, would you?"

"Grandma!" Su Tianhao panicked.

"Grandma!" Su Yue also panicked.

A group of Su Family members all looked towards Old Madam Su, while many Su Family Elders looked at Su Tianhao with cold eyes.

Old Madam Su knew that if she continued to protect Su Tianhao today, she would definitely cause dissatisfaction among many elders of the Su Family.

Taking a deep breath, Old Madam Su solemnly said, "Indeed, Su Tianhao has lost this wager, and as a witness, I naturally will not shield anyone!"

"Now I declare, Su Tianhao will be stripped of his position as General Manager, and from this day forward, the position will be held by Su Ruoxue!"

"Grandma, wise decision!" Ye Fan said indifferently.

Su Tianhao was dumbfounded, and he wailed like a dog that had lost its home, "Grandma, you can't strip me of my position as General Manager!"

"No more words!" Old Madam Su said sternly.

Realizing he had no chance of turning the situation around, Su Tianhao turned pale, feeling as if all his strength had been drained, and he slumped to the ground.

Ye Fan sneered coldly, "Su Tianhao, haven't you forgotten something?"

"Ye Fan, I've already been stripped of my position as General Manager; what more do you want?" Seeing that Ye Fan was relentless, Su Tianhao roared in anger.

Ye Fan, with his hands behind his back, said coldly, "Simple."

"Kneel! Bow! Apologize!"
