Su Wanwan stood outside the door of the private room for a long time. It was only after she had completely calmed down that she stretched out her hand to push the door open and walk in.

When she returned to her seat, Gong Lingyu leaned over slightly and asked with concern, “Wanwan, what took you so long? Are you feeling unwell?”

Su Wanwan quickly shook her head and responded, “It’s nothing. I just ran into a friend and chatted for a while.”

“Are you really okay? You look a bit pale.”

“Really?” Su Wanwan blinked her large eyes and pretended to act casual as she said with a smile, “Maybe it’s because I’m meeting your parents today, so I’m a little nervous.”

“What’s there to be nervous about? Look at how much my parents like you.” Gong Lingyu couldn’t help but laugh and didn’t continue peppering her with questions.

Su Wanwan secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

After Su Zhenhua and Mr. and Mrs. Gong chatted happily the entire night, the wedding was tentatively set.

On the way back, Su Zhenhua was drowsily leaning against the back seat of the car and taking a nap as he had one too many glasses while Su Wanwan was seated on the other side. Leaning against the window, she stared at the streets that were zooming past, her worries weighing heavily on her mind.

She thought, I really can’t escape this time; Pei Munian has given an ultimatum again. He’s definitely not just trying to scare me.

But if I really break up with Ling Yu, what will happen to the Su Corporation? What about Ling Yu?

Although she had her selfish reasons for agreeing to marry Ling Yu, Lingyu genuinely liked her. He was different from other men. Other men just wanted to sleep with her and take advantage of her. Only Lingyu was sincere to her.

It was precisely because he was sincere that she had hesitated when he first proposed to her, because she knew in her heart that at that time, she still couldn’t forget the person buried deep down in her heart. However, the moment she accepted his proposal, she had genuinely wanted to try to love him.

The next day, Su Wanwan was extremely absent-minded and her thoughts kept wandering. During a regular company meeting, her mind kept wandering time and again. Her secretary called her several times, but she still didn’t respond. In the end, her secretary had to give her a gentle push. Only then did she snap out of it.

The moment she looked up, she was met with Su Zhenhua’s serious face. His brows were knitted together as he looked at her. Su Wanwan’s mind was jolted awake and she swiftly straightened up.

After the meeting, everyone packed up their things and left while Su Zhenhua called out to Su Wanwan.

Although she was crying inwardly, Su Wanwan had no choice but to stop in her tracks and obediently stand before him while greeting him softly, “Grandpa.”

Su Zhenhua cast a glance at her. His deep eyes seemed so sharp that they could see through everything. “Go ahead, tell me what’s going on. You’ve been like this since last night.”

Last night?

Su Wanwan thought she had concealed her emotions well. She didn’t realize they had already been laid bare long ago.

She hesitated whether or not to tell her grandfather about her impending break up with Lingyu. If she told her grandfather, he definitely wouldn’t agree to it. After all... the Su Corporation was still banking on the Gong Corporation to invest in them.

However, she was even more incapable of fighting against Pei Munian, and the consequences of offending Pei Munian would definitely be even worse than losing an investment.

After pondering it for a while, Su Wanwan eventually tried to sound him out. “Grandpa, if... If I don’t marry Lingu...”

Su Zhenhua wasn’t as shocked and angry as Su Wanwan imagined. Instead, he appeared calm and indifferent. He finished her thought: “You mean that you want to annul the engagement with Gong Lingyu?”

Now it was Su Wanwan’s turn to be shocked. Her eyes widened slightly and she asked in confusion, “Grandpa, you... You’re not angry?”
