Chapter 72: Stunning Entrance
“Madam Su, have you told Su Yu about everything that’s happening tonight?”
Xiao Yunfeng felt a little uneasy and could not help but ask again.
“Su Yu is very stubborn, but she’s still a daughter of the Su family. Her father and I can still make decisions regarding her matters. Moreover, she doesn’t have many years left…”
Xiao Yunfeng and his wife looked at each other and nodded imperceptibly.
On the other hand, Su Lu and Su Ning were a little farther away. They each held a glass of wine and drank contentedly.
“What are they talking about over there? They’ve been talking for so long!” Su Lu glanced at Su Juntao and Wang Rong unhappily.
A banquet organized by Xiao Yunfeng was being held today. He was one of the four richest men in Tianhe City. Many socialites were here, including many young talents.
Hence, the two sisters had made meticulous preparations. They were dressed beautifully so that they could stand out among the socialites of Tianhe City.
…..
Su Ning tilted her head slightly and did not look sideways. The corners of her mouth moved slightly. “I heard that Xiao Yunfeng has an only son. He contracted a terminal illness two years ago. He doesn’t have much time left.”
A look of confusion flashed in Su Lu’s eyes as she asked, “I’ve heard about this too, but what does it have to do with our family?”
Su Ning raised a mysterious smile and said indifferently, “His son is about to die. A father in his old age will have to send off his young son. Xiao Yunfeng is unwilling to accept this, so he’s constantly thinking of ways to make his son happy. Although everything is just superstition, at this point, we should try our best. Mom has gotten someone to calculate Su Yu’s fortune. It turns out that she’s very compatible with Xiao Yunfeng’s son…”
Su Lu’s eyes lit up slightly as she nodded. “That’s interesting. Could it be that Su Yu will be marrying the young master of the Xiao family?”
“Hmph, you’re still too young. After all, Su Yu doesn’t have many years left to live. If she marries Young Master Xiao, the Xiao family has to show their gratitude. After all, the two families will be in-laws by then, right? Furthermore, he’s their only son!”
An excited look flashed across Su Lu’s eyes as she blurted out, “By then, with the relationship between the two families, not only will we be able to get Su Yu’s shares, but the Xiao family will also give us a generous compensation, right?
“They’ll also maintain long-term cooperation with our company. This will be greatly beneficial for the company and our family.”
…
Su Yu did not know that this so-called banquet was a planned ambush. She also did not know that the entire Su family was waiting for her.

She chose a red dress from the clothes Pei Tianlin gave her. It complemented her snow-white skin and slender figure. She was like a burning flame, blooming with a charm that no one could ignore.
Not long after, Su Yu arrived at the Xiao family’s manor.
As soon as she got out of the car, she saw Gu Yunsheng, who was also rushing over.
“Doctor Gu!”
She greeted him.
She had heard that Xiao Yunfeng’s son was terminally ill, so she was not surprised to see Gu Yunsheng here.
“Beauty Su? Why are you here? Didn’t your partner accompany you?”
Gu Yunsheng’s appearance was also very outstanding, but compared to Pei Tianlin’s masculine handsomeness, he looked a little feminine.
“He’s very busy with work, so I didn’t ask him to join me.”
Gu Yunsheng was not surprised when he heard this. He spread his arms and said, “That’s good. But it’s a banquet, after all. You should have a companion! We can pair up!”
Su Yu chuckled and generously held his arm as they walked into the banquet hall together.
As soon as the two of them appeared, the limelight was immediately snatched by Gu Yunsheng.
Gu Yunsheng’s reputation was known by all. Various guests came in front of them one after another.
Su Yu took the opportunity to let go of Gu Yusheng’s arm and avoid the guests.
After all, she was a married woman. It would be inappropriate if rumors spread.
However, Su Yu also attracted the attention of many people.
Most of the people who paid attention to Gu Yunsheng were after his fame and medical skills. They either had family members who were seriously ill or good friends suffering from hidden illnesses. In short, their motives were very strong.
What attracted them to Su Yu was her beauty and temperament.
“Who is this woman? I want to know everything about her immediately!”
“Her looks and aura are definitely not something celebrities can compare to. Could she be the daughter of a rich family?”
“With this woman here, all the women at the banquet have become vulgar extras!”
Su Ning and Su Lu, who had spent most of the day dressing up, were ignored by everyone. No one even looked at them. They could only hide in the corner with disappointed expressions.
