Substitute Bride to the Crippled Billionaire
Chapter 141 Exposed?

Chapter 141: Chapter 141 Exposed?

Su Qingnuan clenched her fists tightly, glaring hatefully at the woman before her.

Her gaze fell on their tightly clasped hands, such intimate proximity—it was clearly not a mere friendship.

"Qingnuan." Su Qingnuan forced a smile, her tone serious: "Aren’t you supposed to be at school today? Why did you come here?"

Su Yuerou blinked, then smiled faintly: "Sister, have you forgotten? I’m about to graduate."

"..."

This was intentional.

Su Qingnuan was absolutely certain that Su Yuerou’s relationship with Fu Yihan was not simple, and...

It was likely that Fu Yihan had already discovered her true identity; otherwise, he wouldn’t be collaborating so seamlessly with Su Yuerou.

What should she do.....

Su Qingnuan clenched her fists tighter, her heartbeat accelerating.

Would Fu Yihan choose to expose her identity?

Would the Fu family throw her away? The Su family certainly wouldn’t take her back.

If she were cast out of the Fu family, Su Qingnuan truly would have nowhere to go.

Grinding her teeth, Su Qingnuan strove to maintain her composure.

"Since you’re almost graduating, why not start job hunting instead of wandering around here?" Su Qingnuan’s tone was calm but carried a sharp edge.

Su Yuerou narrowed her eyes and examined her, then chuckled: "I’m jobless at the moment. If you feel like being kind, sister, why not help me find one?"

Su Qingnuan sneered: "I see plenty of street performers out there. You can give that a try."

"You!" Su Yuerou couldn’t hold back and pointed angrily at Su Qingnuan: "Such a degrading job could only come to your mind!"

Her excessively high volume attracted a lot of attention.

The company’s system had crashed, so employees with free time began gathering to enjoy the commotion.

Seeing more and more people gathering, Su Qingnuan frowned: "This isn’t the right place for a conversation. I still have work to do."

With that, she turned around, ignoring the pair behind her.

"Oh please!" Su Yuerou said with amusement, "Little sister, did you lose your memory? This is the Fu family’s property. On your own turf, how could this not be the right place to talk?"

This is the Fu family’s company?

She had never been to the Fu family’s company and didn’t expect that Fu Yihan had expanded his business ventures to his hometown.

Her brow furrowed slightly as she responded earnestly: "Then let’s talk after work."

Observing her seriousness, Su Yuerou patted Fu Yihan’s hand.

Fu Yihan grinned knowingly and raised his voice: "Wasn’t it supposed to be ready in half an hour? Why is it still not fixed?"

Manager Gao quickly stood up, smiling apologetically: "Don’t worry, Mr. Fu, it’ll be fixed soon!"

"Soon? You’ve said ’soon’ how many times already?" Fu Yihan frowned and said, "This broken system—how many times has it crashed this month?"

Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Manager Gao’s face turned pale: "Our company uses the same system, and it’s worked fine for us. We’re not sure why you’re encountering problems here..."

"So what you’re implying is that the issue is with our company, not the system?"

"No, no!" Manager Gao said softly: "We’ll improve the technology as soon as we head back, ensuring this doesn’t happen again."

"Enough!" Fu Yihan raised an eyebrow disdainfully: "How many times have I heard that before? I’ll give you five more minutes. If you can’t fix it, pack up and leave. We’ll switch to a new system."

"Please, Mr. Fu!" Manager Gao pleaded desperately: "I’ve already repaired half of it—just a little more time. Give me half an hour, and it will surely work!"

"You don’t have half an hour; you have five minutes. Figure it out."

Supporting himself on the desk, Fu Yihan watched them gleefully.

Beside him, the ridicule in Su Yuerou’s eyes was undisguised.

These two were clearly just here to cause trouble!

Su Qingnuan frowned, glancing at the utterly flustered Manager Gao.

"Manager," Su Qingnuan whispered, "you continue the repairs; I’ll handle them."

Manager Gao gave her a skeptical look, lowering his voice: "Can you manage it?"

"Trust me this time."

With that, Su Qingnuan walked around the desk to where the pair stood.

"Sister, Mr. Fu, shall we talk in the lounge?"

"What lounge?" Su Yuerou asked snarkily. "Aren’t you too busy? We’ll wait here to save you the trouble."

Fist clenched, Su Qingnuan gritted her teeth: "Sister, where’s Lin An these days?"

Su Yuerou’s expression shifted slightly as she frowned at Su Qingnuan.

Su Qingnuan raised an eyebrow and smiled faintly: "Or should I give him a call and have him come take a look at the current situation?"

"....."

Releasing her grip on Fu Yihan’s arm, Su Yuerou said with a shallow smile: "Yihan, let me speak to my sister privately."

With an odd look passing between the two sisters, Fu Yihan nodded: "Alright."

He familiarly led Su Qingnuan into the lounge. Su Yuerou folded her arms, standing leisurely as she stared at Su Qingnuan.

"What do you want to talk about? Spit it out."

"You and Fu Yihan are together now?" Su Qingnuan asked bluntly.

Su Yuerou nodded nonchalantly: "Yes, we’re together. Is there a problem?"

Su Qingnuan frowned slightly: "He’s not an easy person to deal with."

"Ha!" Su Yuerou sneered, "Do you think I’m easy to deal with?"

The statement wasn’t wrong—neither of them was a pushover. Su Qingnuan’s remark was indeed redundant.

"Since you’ve already made your decision, there’s little for me to say. But I’m at work today, so stop disrupting me."

"Work?" Su Yuerou said with a sweet smile. "If not for your work, I wouldn’t have bothered coming here."

"What do you mean?" Su Qingnuan asked, her face stoic. "You did this on purpose?"

"Of course... on purpose." Su Yuerou leaned in closer, her eyes growing darker with malice. "Su Qingnuan, do you know just how envious I am of you? That position should have been mine..."

She should have been the Fu family’s rightful daughter-in-law—its distinguished and legitimate young madam.

Watching Su Yuerou’s increasingly obsessed expression, Su Qingnuan took a step back, her brow furrowing tighter.

"Su Yuerou, don’t forget how I ended up married into the Fu family. Do you need me to remind you?"

Su Yuerou paused briefly, her malice fading, leaving only a faint smile.

"Yes, we forced you back then—I admit it. But now I’m going to enter the Fu family my own way." Su Yuerou raised an eyebrow, her smile bewitching. "And as for you, you’ll only continue being despised by that cripple until you’re kicked out of the Fu family."

"...What are you planning?" Su Qingnuan asked cautiously.

Su Yuerou chuckled lightly: "Oh... you’ll find out soon enough."

With a crazed smile on her lips, Su Yuerou opened the door and walked out.

The lounge suddenly fell quiet. The ticking of the wall clock reverberated, each tick echoing in Su Qingnuan’s chest.

This insufferable girl... What on earth was she planning?

...

"Yihan!" Su Yuerou ran up to Fu Yihan, nestling into his arms as she said softly: "My sister sure knows how to throw her weight around—she just scolded me."

Hearing this, Fu Yihan cupped her face and began inspecting her carefully: "Did she hit you?"
