Hai Su’s body trembled and the expression on his face also showed that he panicked.
Just when Rui Liu said she had learned the truth, he still put his faith in luck; but when Rui's vision cast over, his heart sank to the bottom of the valley.
"You three, come in, too." Rui moved her eyes away from Hai and shouted at the door.
Immediately, the three staff in charge of Rui’s headset came in with their heads lowered.
When Hai saw the appearance of the three people, his brain suddenly went blank; he was completely blindfolded.
"You three, tell us about it." Rui said.
After Rui spoke, the staff standing in the middle looked up and glanced around, then he pointed to Hai and said, "It is this Mr. Hai Su who told us to do so."
"Yes, he paid the three of us to fiddle with Miss Rui Liu's headset, and told us there would be an extra bonus after it’s done."
"Yes, yes, he did!"
Said the other two.
What?
Was it really Hai Su?
Hearing the words of these three people, all the people of the Su Family were shocked. They did not expect the truth to be like this as it was too much to accept.
"Darn it..." Hai was just about to curse something but he finally swallowed the harsh words; the person in front of him was the artist supported by Huanyu Group, someone he couldn’t afford to offend.
"This is an insult, a pure insult. Do you know who I am? Do you know the consequence of insulting me?" Hai dare not be angry at Rui, so he just got mad at the three staff. He looked at the three with an evil expression and anyone could hear the threat in his tone.
The Old Lady recovered from the shock; she still couldn’t believe Hai would do this kind of thing to damage the Su Family, she said seriously, "This is not a joke, you three shall be sued and charged for framing innocent people."
Facing Hai’s threat and the oppression of The Old Lady, the three staff looked at each other and laughed bitterly; it was so greedy of them to expect this amount of money and they all regretted about it.
And they were here to identify Hai after taking his money; they really offended Hai big time!
Life wouldn’t be easy for the three from this moment, they were afraid.
But compared to Guobang Liu, Hai could hardly be a little brother; the worst result of offending Hai was a tough life at most, but the result of offending Guobang was not something they could bear, they might not even have a way back apart from a tough life.
One staff gritted his teeth and said, "I’ve got proof in my hands."
"So do we!" Said the other two.
"We all have the record of the financial transaction from Mr. Hai Su on our mobile phones."
Said the three people and they showed the proof. With the proof as solid as a rock, the truth was revealed.
The Old Lady’s face was pale, and she got dizzy because of anger; with trembling finger pointing at Hai, she said, "Hai, You... Why are you doing this?"
Hai opened his mouth but realized he could not find a word at all.
He fell to the ground like a deflated balloon.
At this time, Mary Su by the side also sighed in relief; the truth of this matter finally got clear.
The Old Lady looked at Hai in disappointment and could not say a word; but she suppressed her anger because Rui was here; she said to Rui, "Miss. Liu, I failed to discipline this kid; about this matter..."
No matter how much mistakes he made, Hai was still her favorite grandson; and no matter how important Rui was, she was after all an outsider, so she still wanted to defend Hai.
Rui said with an expressionless face, "You Su Family have caused this matter, I’ll leave the matter to you to deal with, just don't let me down."
The Old Lady got her meaning from her words, that they must give her a satisfying explanation.
She glared at Hai and said angrily, "You useless piece of crap, I have put all my efforts in you, and this is how you repay me... You really let me down! From this day on, you are not allowed to meddle in anything in the company and you are not allowed to step out of the house for half a year!"
"Grandma, no, please, I... I know I am wrong." Hai knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.
The Old Lady didn't look at him. She turned and looked at Rui, "Miss. Liu, are you satisfied with this result?"
Rui did not say anything, instead, she looked at Kris Chen.
Seeing kris nodding gently, she opened her mouth and said, "So be it."
Seeing Rui agreed, The Old Lady’s heart was relieved that as long as Rui stopped arguing over this matter, the rest would be must easier to do.
"Let the matter rest." Rui said and she added, "But I have a condition."
"Blurt it out, please!"
As long as she could forgive the Su Family, they would take ten conditions.
Rui smiled, went to Mary and announced, "My marketing and appearance design shall still be in the charge of Miss Mary, I do not recognize anyone else; am I clear?"
What?
Only Mary?
Hearing this, the people of the Su Family were once again shocked.
The same conversation happened once when they were talking about the cooperation with Huanyu Group, that they wanted Mary only, but now Rui also said so... What the heck’s going on here?
"Fine, since you say so, we Su Family shall support you fully." The Old Lady was actually very reluctant, but Rui was so firm, so she had to nod not matter how unwilling she was.
They did not expect that in such a short time, the project of Rui’s promotion and marketing returned to Mary’s hands again.
Besides, with Rui saying it personally, that she would only recognize Mary, this whole matter would be impossible to be interfered, as they considered Rui’s words as a imperial edict.
They were all really envious; although Rui’s imaged was damaged temporarily, by virtue of the resource and channels of Huanyu Group, she would in no doubt be hot soon.
With such a superstar to-be, Mary could make money easily even in her dreams!
Hai was really speechless and he couldn’t defend himself; why did he even do what he did? He actually did a big favor for Mary finally; he hated himself so much!
The things that should be done were done; Rui smiled and went to Kris, "Brother Kris, if there’s nothing else, I’ll go first!"
Rui’s tone was full of respect and humbleness.
What?
Brother Kris?
Rui called this rubbish Brother Kris?
Oh, god, was there something wrong with their ears?
Everyone was dumbfounded, and their mouths were wide open.
Even the Old Lady got surprised when she heard this... What on earth was going on?
"Well, you shall go and do your business." Kris nodded and said.
Hearing this, Rui showed a sweet smile, then left with her high heels kicking the ground, together with the three staff who felt a relief when they could finally flee the Su estate; the three looked at each other, feeling like they had just survived a disaster.
After Rui left, Kris stood up, stretched his arms and said languidly, "Getting framed by your own family, how interesting and eye-opening."
The sarcasm in his voice was shown clearly.
The Old Lady remained silent after hearing it; she recalled herself swearing that it couldn’t have been Hai, and now felt so hot on her face, as if someone had slapped her.
The facial expressions of rest of the Su Family were also complex, as they wanted to refute, yet found themselves so powerless.
Kris smiled and walked out of the hall slowly.
As soon as he walked out the door, Mary caught up with him and said, "Kris, wait a minute."
Kris stopped and looked at her. "What's wrong, darling?" He asked.
Hearing Kris address her so intimately, Mary blushed. She would have been angry if he had called her like this before; but at the moment she got a little shy.
But it was not the moment to be shy, which was also not what she came after him for. She thought for a while and said, "Did you know the truth before you came? And... What's the matter between you and Rui?"
Mary bit her lip and there was a hint of interrogation in her words.
"Darling, what are you... Jealous?"
