Chapter 160: Su Family Situation
"Ahem…" Su Bo cleared his throat, then said, "Ran, you knew about this beforehand?" Su Bo's expression was a bit complicated, then he continued dispiritedly, "The Su family has seriously suffered serious damage this time. Our a.s.sets have fallen to a tenth of what we had before."
Ning Shu said 'oh' indifferently without any expression change. The current situation was already much better than that of the original storyline. Originally, the Su family had completely collapsed. At that time, Su Bo had run off with Su Lan, leaving the original host and Madame Su, two weak women, to be reduced to being prost.i.tutes.
This outcome for a malicious cannon fodder like her should already be satisfying enough to resolve feelings of hatred, but Su Dabao still came to the nightclub to humiliate her.
Was it really good for a little kid to visit night clubs? In addition, due to the fact that Chairman Xiao's son was purposely making things difficult for her, no nightclubs dared to take her anymore. Su Ran had grown up very comfortably and didn't have any skills with which to earn a living, so she ended up in wretched poverty and died from the pox.
The ending really was pitiful.
"Can you talk to Xiao Yan and borrow some money from the Xiao family so that the Su family has a bit of capital to work with?" asked Su Bo.
Ning Shu rolled her eyes. They were clearly targeting you, yet you still believe that they'd lend you money? No matter how braindead Xiao Yan was, he probably still wouldn't lend money in this situation.
What Su Bo was actually planning was probably to use her to test the Xiao family's att.i.tude.
"Didn't Dad say that women shouldn't get involved in business matters?" Ning Shu directly rejected him.
Ning Shu felt that the original host was still pretty naive. She thought that if she protected the Su family and had her maternal family's support, then she wouldn't end up with the tragic ending of the original storyline. She didn't take into consideration the fact that Su Bo didn't care about her or her mother.
Su Bo's expression immediately turned unpleasant when he heard this. "You were born in the Su family and the Su family has given you wealth and honor, yet you're making all sorts of excuses when we ask you to help a little? Without the Su family, you also won't be able to do much in the Xiao family."
Madame Su looked at her husband, then looked at Ning Shu. In the end, she sighed without saying anything.
Su Lan said to Su Bo, "Dad, didn't I say that we shouldn't bother asking her? Su Ran only cares about herself. She's selfish and malicious."
Ning Shu looked up towards Su Lan and said expressionlessly, "Either you shut up, or I'll beat you until you shut up. Who do you think you are to complain about me? If you had the ability, go look for the person who cheated you and yell at him! You girl-like wimp. Now that the Su family no longer has money, you can go sell yourself to people who have interest in weak bottoms like you."
Su Lan's face instantly flushed red from anger. He clenched his fists and glared as he shouted, "Su Ran, try humiliating me one more time!?"
"I'd rather be a beggar on the street than beg a malicious woman like you for help." Su Lan turned around to leave but Su Bo stopped him. Su Lan said angrily, "Dad, let's go. Let's just leave this d.a.m.ned arrogant woman to fend for herself. You heard what she said, she doesn't care about the Su family at all, much less me, this younger brother. All she cares about is herself."
When Ning Shu heard Su Lan's complaints, she couldn't help but wonder if all the men kneeling beneath the Mary Sue halo was this opinionated and pompous? They were always standing at a position they believed to be n.o.ble and accusing others of things without ever reflecting on their own conduct.
Su Lan was always saying that she didn't care about him as a younger brother, but what about him? He was completely loyal to Su Meng and treated his older sister like a freaking death enemy.
Ridiculous.

Chapter 161: Uncle Isn't Like Her Ah
There were so many idiots in this world that Ning Shu almost felt the impulse to destroy the world. When she heard Su Lan's confident accusation, she felt completely speechless.
It was seriously a twisted world. Ning Shu expressed that she couldn't stand it.
People who always place themselves above the common populace and never had contact with society lived such ignorant and willful lives.
"Dad, I can't do anything about this matter so you guys should just head back. Don't you still have some money on hand? It should be enough to make a comeback." The current situation was already much better than that of the original storyline, yet he still wasn't satisfied. All that could be said was that people truly were too greedy.
"See Dad, just like I said…"
"Shut up. You're not allowed to speak, otherwise I'll beat you until you can't even talk."
The moment Su Lan opened his mouth, he was cut off by Ning Shu.
Su Lan glared at Ning Shu with anger and fear in his eyes, but Ning Shu paid no attention. In her opinion, Su Lan wasn't a man at all. He didn't have the sense of responsibility that a man should have and was of the same sort as Xiao Yan.
When Su Bo heard his daughter refuse again, he couldn't maintain his expression either and glared at Ning Shu. Just as he was about to leave, a servant shouted, "Master and Madame have come back. Hurry up and come welcome them."
In just a few moments, two neat rows of servants that stretched all the way from the entrance to the living room were formed. It was such an extravagant display.
Master Xiao was the first to get off the car, then Xiao Yan came down while carrying Su Xiaobao and Su Meng got out while holding Su Dabao's hand.
The family of six slowly walked in, stepping on the luxurious carpet. Master Xiao's aura was dignified while Madame Xiao was graceful and poised. Xiao Yan was carrying a little princess in a pettiskirt and his handsome features served to complement the sweet innocent beauty of the little angel. They looked like a perfect painting.
Ning Shu's lips twitched. They sure were good at acting cool. Then she s.h.i.+fted her gaze onto Su Meng. Her face was soft white with a little bit of a flush. She looked as if she was walking on clouds. It seemed like Xiao Yan had pampered her really well.
When Xiao Yan saw Ning Shu in the living room, disdain, loathing, and disgust immediately appeared on his handsome face.
When Su Meng saw Ning Shu, a trace of discomfort flashed across her face. However, she steadied herself by telling herself that she and Xiao Yan were truly mutually in love. Xiao Yan didn't love Su Ran.
"h.e.l.lo, in-laws." Su Bo greeted Master Xiao and Madame Xiao cordially.
Master Xiao only lifted his eyes slightly to glance at Su Bo, then said mildly, "I apologize for the lacking reception. The children just left the hospital and needed people to look after them."
Su Bo's expression stiffened but he forced out a smile. "Yes, the children are more important."
Su Lan looked towards Su Meng and asked, "Cousin, are the kids alright?"
Su Meng immediately gave him a sweet smile that contained a bit of lingering fear mixed with relief as she said, "They're fine now. Come here, call uncle." Su Meng called the two children over.
Su Dabao and Su Xiaobao obediently called, "Uncle."
A smile appeared on Su Lan's face. He was clearly very moved as he said, "You guys can't fall ill again in the future, got it? Look how worried you guys made your mother."
Su Xiaobao snuck a glance at Ning Shu, then said in her innocent childish voice, "Uncle isn't like her ah."
At the side, Ning Shu was speechless. It was seriously unbelievable.
