Chapter 159: Getting What He Deserved

"Mom, please don't worry. Our plan this time is foolproof, and I guarantee there won't be any problems."

Inside Old Mrs. Su's villa, Liu Farong looked at the anxious Old Mrs. Su and smiled to comfort her.

She knew that Xie Longshan had already gone to the Su Family Bank, and with Su Xiongahui's help in persuasion, this plan would definitely succeed.

Although Old Mrs. Su was aware of all this, her heart was still filled with worry.

A good half-afternoon had already passed. Logically speaking, there should have been news by now, but up to this moment, not a single word had been received. How could she not be anxious?

"Farong, are you sure that President Xie is reliable? Could Lin Feng have seen through the trick? If he exposes us, all our painstaking efforts will be wasted again," Old Mrs. Su asked with lingering doubts.

"Mom, rest assured. President Xie is the consortium manager of the Jiangcheng Chamber of Commerce. His word is as good as an imperial decree in Jiangcheng. No matter how capable that brat Lin Feng is, would he dare to go against the Jiangcheng Chamber of Commerce?"

Liu Farong explained with a smile, and the worry in Old Mrs. Su's heart gradually dissipated.

"This is bad, a catastrophe has happened! Something has gone wrong on President Xie's end."

Just as they were worrying together, an assistant suddenly ran in from outside and reported in a breathless rush.

"What happened?" Old Mrs. Su felt her heart skip a beat, her eyes widening as she asked.

"President Xie... his private visit today to sign the contract at the Su Family Bank was discovered by Chairman Long. Chairman Long personally went to the Su Family Bank, beat President Xie to within an inch of his life, and took him away. His current status and whether he is dead or alive are completely unknown," the assistant continued.

"What?"

In an instant, Old Mrs. Su and Liu Farong were both struck dumb with shock!

They stared at each other in dismay, never expecting the matter to turn out this way.

A few seconds later, Liu Farong regained her composure and continued to ask, "Then what about Su Qingxue and Lin Feng? Do they already know that this whole thing was a fake?"

"Yes, they know everything. Now Chairman Su knows about it too, and he also knows that this was entirely orchestrated by you. He is furiously rushing over here right now to hold you accountable," the assistant said nervously, keeping her head down.

Thud!

Hearing these words, Liu Farong was so terrified that she almost collapsed to the floor.

In a panic, she turned her head back to look at Old Mrs. Su and asked, "Mom, what should we do now? Even Xiongahui knows about this. He will never let me off."

"What are you panicking for? With me here, I refuse to believe what he could possibly do to you."

Old Mrs. Su dismissed the thought with an unconcerned tone. After deep and profound contemplation, she calmly said, "Go hide upstairs first. When he gets here in a moment, I will speak with him myself."

"Okay, Mom. Thank you."

Liu Farong nodded in agreement and hurriedly scrambled toward the stairs.

She had just hidden herself away when Su Xiongahui stormed in from outside, consumed by fury, and shouted at the top of his lungs, "Liu Farong, get your ass out here right now! If you don't give me an explanation today, I will divorce you!"

"Xiongahui, what is the matter? What kind of dispute are you two having as husband and wife? Why are you casually tossing around words like divorce out of nowhere?" Old Mrs. Su asked calmly, looking at Su Xiongahui.

"Mom, are you still going to put on an act for me? I already know everything. You and Liu Farong have bullied Qingxue time and time again, and this time you actually colluded directly with Xie Longshan to scheme against the shares of the Su Family Bank."

"Even I was taken in by your deception," Su Xiongahui said, looking at Old Mrs. Su with a stern and solemn expression.

He dared not blame his own mother, but Liu Farong—she had to be dealt with today, come hell or high water.

"What Xie Longshan? I don't know any Xie Longshan. All I know is that the girl Su Qingxue is not a true member of the Su family, and she doesn't have the blood of the Su family flowing in her veins. If you've come to harass your wife simply to shield that girl, I will most certainly intervene."

Old Mrs. Su put on a severe expression, let out a cold snort, and said, "That girl has been raised by the Su family for so long; it's about time she learned some contentment. It's your fault for always spoiling her so much and even handing the Su Family Bank over for her to manage."

"Aren't you afraid that one day she will turn around and bite the hand that feeds her? That girl is growing more capable by the day. When the time comes that you can no longer suppress her, the Su family will be finished."

"Mom, Qingxue is not that kind of person, and I will not allow you to target Qingxue ever again."

Su Xiongahui spoke with absolute determination. Suddenly, his gaze was drawn to the base of the staircase, where a single shoe had been left behind—the very shoe Liu Farong had accidentally kicked off in her panicked rush upstairs.

Without another word, he strode immediately toward the second floor of the villa, searching every room for Liu Farong.

Old Mrs. Su tried to stop him, but her movements were a step too slow. By the time she turned around, Su Xiongahui had already gone upstairs.

"Xiongahui, get down here right now! I will not allow you to bully Farong."

Old Mrs. Su shouted loudly from downstairs, but she could not halt Su Xiongahui's relentless footsteps.

Before long, Su Xiongahui located Liu Farong, grabbed her by the hair, and dragged her bodily out of the room.

Slap!

Immediately following that came a vicious slap across her face, hard enough to draw blood from the corner of her mouth.

"You treacherous bitch, how dare you use me to go after Qingxue, and even attempt to ruin the Su Family Bank? Do you still refuse to acknowledge your guilt?" Su Xiongahui pointed angrily at her crumpled form on the floor, a murderous glint flashing in his eyes.

"Xiongahui, I did all this for the good of the Su family! You have to understand me. Only when that girl Su Qingxue leaves the Su family can we have a good life. Otherwise, sooner or later, the Su family will be usurped by her."

Liu Farong clutched half her face and hurried to explain herself to Su Xiongahui.

Su Xiongahui was so enraged that his neck flushed a deep red. On the spot, he delivered a ruthless kick straight to her chest, shouting furiously, "How dare you still speak! Qingxue is someone I watched grow up from childhood; I know what kind of person she is much better than you do."

"Let me tell you, if you hadn't been stirring up trouble and poisoning minds behind the scenes, the Su family would never have descended into this kind of chaos."

"Liu Farong, to think I trusted you so completely, especially trusting that you treated Qingxue like your own daughter! Yet you have always regarded her as a stumbling block. How could you ever repay my trust like this?"

"Xiongahui, I... I know I was wrong. I promise I will never target Su Qingxue again. Will you please forgive me?"

Seeing that Su Xiongahui was still at the peak of his rage, Liu Farong hastily changed her tune and took the initiative to apologize.

If he actually went through with the divorce, the only one who would suffer the loss was herself.

Su Xiongahui's anger showed no signs of abating. He let out a cold snort and said, "It's too late for you to realize your mistake now. Everything you've done to Qingxue and the Su family has completely shattered my heart."

"I announce that starting today, our relationship as husband and wife is hereby ended. I will draw up the divorce agreement as soon as possible. When the time comes, we will get divorced, and you will get out of the Su family!"

Boom!

Liu Farong ultimately heard the exact words she feared most. She scrambled desperately across the floor to Su Xiongahui's feet, clutching at his trouser legs as she sobbed, "Xiongahui, I beg you to give me one chance. I swear I will change!"

"If I ever treat Su Qingxue poorly again, may I be blinded and have my tongue cut out! Please, just give me one more chance..."
