Chapter 3 Under Heaven's Feet

  There is a big temperature difference between the two regions in the north and south. The plane had just arrived at the airport for a short time when it started snowing.

  The March sky is still cold enough to make people's teeth chatter.

  Rushing over from City A, Su Nianqing had almost nothing prepared, wearing only a fitted windbreaker, and as soon as she got off the plane, she was shivering with cold, her hands trembling as she reached for her phone to turn it on.

  As soon as the phone was turned on, there were already many messages inside. Before she had time to carefully browse through them, the phone rang again. She took a glance at the caller's number and hastily picked up, her voice trembling: "Brother?"

  On the other end of the phone came Su Shaochen's gloomy voice: "Have you arrived? I'm outside the airport now, find a car and come over yourself."

  "Alright, I get it!"

  She hung up the phone and rushed to the airport, the cold wind blowing on her body, making her grit her teeth!

  As soon as I came out of the terminal building, I saw Su Shaochen's dazzling limited edition Bugatti Veyron, parked horizontally at the entrance. The baby blue body was very eye-catching among the black and white cars!

  When he bought this car, she couldn't figure it out. Where did Su Lao Da get so much private money? He could afford to spend 30 million on a car. Fortunately, he wasn't in politics, otherwise the anti-corruption bureau's iron-faced and impartial staff would definitely visit him the next day!

  Like a rabbit with epilepsy, she jumped onto the car in a flurry, panting slightly as she looked towards the person in the driver's seat. Before she could see clearly, everything went black, and a thin down jacket was pulled over her head. This was followed by the man's low, reproachful voice: "Look at you, what a state you're in. You come back without even knowing to wear more clothes!"

  "I rushed back as soon as I received your call, why think so much!" After dressing up, she turned her head to glance at a certain person's gloomy face, stretched out her hand and pinched his handsome face, "Don't look at me like that, I'll be more careful next time, okay?"

  Her icy hand touched his face, Su Shaochen slightly furrowed his brow, raised his hand to pull down the restless paw, took over a thermos cup that had been prepared on the side and handed it over. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Su Nianqing ask: "How is Grandpa? What did the doctor say? How could he suddenly have a heart attack?! Was it one of you who stimulated him again?! You guys are so selfish, don't you know that he's old and should be given some consideration?! Ah!"

  "Wait a minute, so many questions, which one do you want me to answer first?" This girl's temper is getting worse and worse!

  "Answer me one by one, don't even think about missing a single one!" Her bright eyes stared at him fiercely, as if she would pounce on him and fight to the death if he dared to deceive her.

  Su Shaochen couldn't help but glance at her, smiling lightly as he tidied up her slightly disheveled hair, his dark eyes gleaming with gentle indulgence.

  Even though the siblings were separated by distance, he would still arrange a time with his secretary every month to fly over and see her. This habit had persisted for five years.

  Similarly, this silly younger sister of his, for a man, left her hometown and persisted in that place without family for five years like one day.

  It's not that I don't care, it's just that I couldn't persuade her with her stubborn personality, even Grandpa couldn't persuade her to turn back, let alone others.

  He straightened up, started the engine, and slowly began to speak: "Grandfather's condition is temporarily stable. The doctor said that a heart bypass surgery needs to be done tomorrow. Considering his age, the surgical risk is very high, so I rushed to call you back."

  He let out a soft sigh and continued, "As for who provoked him, can anyone else in the family provoke him?" The answer was self-evident, and the subsequent question didn't need to be asked.

  She scolded not wrongly, the family is indeed big and has people who are corrupt, but in recent years the old master doesn't manage things much anymore, that's why the people under him dare to be so arrogant and lawless.

  "Jiang Kaijie that scoundrel, if Grandfather had a few more days to live, I'd make sure he's dead!" The hand grasping the cup tightened, the joints cracking with excessive force.

  Su Shaochen turned his head to look at her, turning the steering wheel. "Don't be angry, with his IQ, it's too easy to get rid of him! But the premise is that you can't bring trouble upon yourself. Everyone knows you two don't get along, and if something happens to him, he'll definitely splash dirty water on you. Plus, your aunt dotes on him, so if you do something too obvious, she'll probably point her spearhead at you again. If you don't want to make things difficult for your uncle, then don't go looking for trouble."

  Su Nianqing hummed softly, clearly not taking his warning to heart. Her calm eyes gazed out the window at the white landscape receding into the distance, and she asked in a stifled tone: "What was it this time that provoked Grandfather?"

  "Just don't get involved in this matter..."

  "Speak!" She raised an eyebrow, her voice cold to the point of freezing, and the stubborn face no longer showed the emotions that had just been revealed.

  Su Shaochen rubbed his sore forehead, hesitated for a moment before speaking: "Jiang Kejie's company received an order from the government to build bridges. The bridge had just been completed and opened to traffic when an accident occurred! When the train passed under the bridge, it shook open the bridge, causing it to collapse. Several passing cars fell into the river, resulting in several deaths. The Quality Supervision Bureau and bridge experts have inspected and found that the problem lies in the engineering, with several products not meeting quality standards."

  "This is Jiang's business, how can it be related to Grandpa?!"

  The Jiang family is making a big fuss, causing trouble everywhere, and they even have to drag the Su family down with them. How despicable!

  "The mayor and the Quality Supervision Bureau's investigation team all came to visit, can the old man not know? If it weren't for giving face to Second Uncle, this matter would probably have been stamped as a criminal case. At that time, three lives would be enough to put Jiang Kaijie in prison!"

  It's come to this, Su Shaochen didn't have a good expression either, his sharp and handsome face was tense because of the serious accident caused by corruption and greed, which cost lives, but the Jiang family could settle it with money, ignoring the law, he was disappointed but didn't want to get involved in other people's business.

  After all, he is no longer involved in politics now, and has made a name for himself in the business world. It's inevitable that he would have dealings with people from the official circles, and he can't afford to offend any of those officials.

  "Three lives... Hmph, just settled with money like that? This is really outrageous! Even under the emperor's feet, they dare to do such a thing!" The sarcastic voice hummed out, and the eyes looking out the window grew even colder. A thin layer of frost on the glass window blurred the view outside.

  The Jiang family is wealthy and powerful, it's not surprising that they can cover up the sky with one hand. But she believes that even a dike thousands of miles long can be destroyed by an ant hole, and Jiang Kaijie this good-for-nothing is one of them.

  The Chiang family's downfall seems imminent.

  "Girl, I don't want you to interfere in this matter. Second Uncle has managed to suppress the situation with great difficulty, so don't follow and cause trouble for no reason. Heaven is watching what people do, just wait and see them get their retribution!"

  Su Nianqing let out a cold snort, tugged at the corner of her mouth, and raised her thin lips, but ultimately didn't form even a hint of a smile.
