Chapter 737: Chapter 312 Red Alert: I’m About to Show Off!
What does it mean to have all eyes on you?
There were around 80 people, and over 60 were watching this side when Pei Shuyu casually threw her coat, stirring up the entire venue.
Wow!
People were shocked.
Huh?
People were puzzled.
Oh~
People were cheering.
Hiss...
People gasped in surprise.
The scene was chaotic for a moment, but what was more chaotic was Gou Huai’s heart.
His dear daughter wasn’t someone who acted recklessly, and she certainly didn’t just find out about Gu Jiuyue’s existence. There was no need for her to complicate things for me, so what happened?
Su Huai first thought about why she did it.
If he couldn’t figure out her intentions, any excuse now would be useless and easily exposed later.
But before that, he had to take care of her clothes first.
Su Huai pulled the corners of his mouth into a dry smile, and then turned around to look for someone.
The closest person was Silly Girl, the streamer Xingyu, but Su Huai raised his hand and called over Red Bull, who was further away.
As Red Bull hurried over, Su Huai stared at him and asked, "What’s happening? Who made Yu angry? Why take it out on me?"
Don’t panic when things happen. First, figure out the nature of the issue before thinking about solving it.
Su Huai categorized Pei Shuyu’s behavior as "a show of power while angry," turning a personal issue public. Now it just depended on whether Red Bull would make things worse. 𝖓𝔬𝔳𝖕𝖚𝖇.𝖈𝔬𝔪
Obviously, Red Bull would.
This guy quickly came up with an excuse, "There was a bit of unpleasantness. Just now, a guy asked Yu how much it would cost to keep you, and Yu held back from splashing wine on him..."
"How dare he!"
Su Huai slammed his hand on the armrest and stood up angrily, glaring back, "Which one? Come on, take me to him!"
"Bro, I didn’t catch what he looked like..." Red Bull said with a pained expression, looking pitiful, "I was on the side and didn’t pay much attention, I only know the guy wasn’t young..."
"You can’t even protect our own people; what use are you?!" Su Huai said fiercely.
Red Bull guiltily hung his head, "Yes, yes, it’s all my fault, Huai..."
Gu Jiuyue quickly grabbed Su Huai’s hand, pulling him to sit down, and soothed him in a gentle voice.
"Su Su, don’t rush. Ask Senior Yu later. Once we find him, I’ll help you vent your anger."
"Hmph!"
Su Huai’s anger was still visible. He carelessly threw Pei Shuyu’s coat to the approaching Silly Girl and said sternly, "Everyone, sit down first. We’ll talk after Yu finishes her dance."
Then, he was the first to sit down, arms crossed, legs crossed, exuding an extremely irritable and agitated aura.
Gu Jiuyue softly coaxed him, "Don’t be angry. It’s not your fault."
Su Huai solemnly said, "I’m not angry because Senior Yu took it out on me; I’m angry because they didn’t respect me and my people. I’m working hard to develop Xingyu, and it’s not to provide a hunting ground for those idiots!"
"Mm-hmm!"
Gu Jiuyue nodded in agreement, feeling that Su Su’s reasoning couldn’t be more correct.
"I understand. You’ve put so much effort into Xingyu, and they really aren’t giving you the respect you deserve!"
Su Huai sighed deeply and patted her knee, "Don’t worry, I can handle it. Just give me a minute or two."
Then Gou Dongxi turned his head and waved at Red Bull again, "Come on, let’s go have a smoke."
Watching the two of them walk back to the side hall, Tang Tiantian held her hands to her chest and exclaimed, "Huai is so cool... He really looks so MANLY when he’s angry!"
Zhong Ting quickly nodded in agreement, "Yeah, yeah, especially manly, like he could strangle you at any moment and leave you breathless..."
Tang Tiantian’s eyes shone, "Can we really play like that?!"
Gu Jiuyue clenched her fists tightly and took a deep breath.
Her eyes were a bit empty, bewildered—drawing bees and butterflies was one thing, but now even the boys had become rivals?
Su Su, you’re too outrageous!
...
Mary Sue and Red Bull returned to the side hall, and he finally relaxed.
He lit a cigarette, and as Red Bull lit it for him, he heavily patted his shoulder.
"Nice job, Red Bull, quick response! You’ve been well-trained!"
"Hehe, playing the wingman is my specialty!"
Red Bull chuckled playfully, then his face showed a hint of difficulty, "But Mr. Su, Yu was really hassled just now..."
"Huh?!"
Wasn’t it all an act?
"Not at all." Red Bull shook his head, then lowered his voice, "On Wang Sicong’s side, a few rich young masters specifically approached our people—Yu, Tang Xian’er, Quanquan—they were all hit on more than once."
Oh!
Su Huai understood: Pei Shuyu was indeed upset—seeing Su Huai comforting Gu Jiuyue while she was harassed by wealthy young heirs, no wonder her mood was off.
Throwing the clothes at him was half a reminder and half a way to vent.
"Mr. Su, what should we do?"
Red Bull stared at Su Huai without revealing any emotions, curious how the company’s biggest boss would handle this and resolve the issue.
"We can only have a small meeting about this later."
Su Huai shook his head, his expression not too relaxed but not gloomy either.
"From my heart, I believe they do not need to rely on rich heirs; they can achieve financial independence on their own. But people have their own aspirations. If someone wants to take a shortcut, we can’t persuade them nor stop them. I can only protect those who are strong and give up on those who give up on themselves. Understand?"
"Understood!"
Red Bull was invig...
