"My granddaughter is naturally perfect in every way, beautiful, capable, and well-behaved, but most importantly, she's extremely obedient and listens to what I say."

  Su Zhenhua seemed to have drunk too much and his words were somewhat incoherent.

  Du Mingwei's face was also flushed with red light, but he didn't forget to continue flattering Su Zhenhua, "This Miss Su looks very filial at first glance. You see, no matter what you say, she responds to it, fearing that you will get angry. Just now when you asked her to make a phone call, didn't she do it without saying a word?"

  "Of course, I'm Su Zhenhua's granddaughter. She has to listen to me. Whatever I tell her to do, she'll do it. Look, I told her to marry Pei Munan, and she did. I told her to make him happy, and she does. Now, he's completely under our control. After some time, I'll have her persuade him to hold the wedding ceremony as soon as possible. By then, the Pei Corporation will be our biggest backer. The Su family will definitely rise again! Just you wait and see, who dares to look down on us anymore!"

  "Yes, yes, yes, Director Su, you have no idea, I'm so envious of you. If I had a granddaughter like that, she could wake up laughing even when she's asleep!"

  Du Mingwei held up his wine glass and clinked it against Su Zhenhua's, taking a big gulp before a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes. "But Director Su, wasn't Miss Su's marriage to the Crown Prince of the Pei family arranged by your parents? Not a love match?"

  "Free Love?"

  Su Zhenhua seemed to have heard something funny, and sneered disdainfully. "In the education of my Su family, there is no such unreasonable thing. Marriage is for serving the family. I've been teaching my two granddaughters since they were young that emotions and love are the most useless things, only benefits are the most important."

  "So, Director Soo, are you saying that Miss Soo and Prince Pae don't have any feelings for each other? It's just a simple family arranged marriage?"

  "That's natural, my granddaughter doesn't need to love anyone, she just needs to make Pei Moxun fall in love with her, let him be devoted to her and willing to pay the price, that's all!"

  "Director Su, this move of yours is truly brilliant!"

  Inside, the sound of laughter and chatter continued unabated. Pei Mochen stood at the entrance, his entire body frozen in place, as if he had been suddenly thrown into an ice cellar, the blood flowing through his veins congealing, cold to the point of trembling.

  He didn't want to hear what Su Zhenhua had said, but those ruthless, cruel and cold words still drilled into his ears one by one.

  He had always known that Su Wanwan married him, but it was for the Su family, for the sake of the Su family. However, because he loved her, he couldn't give up the only way to get close to her, so he still married her.

  Even if we torture each other, even if we hurt each other.

  But he gradually discovered that when he tormented Su Wanwan, he was in pain; when he ignored Su Wanwan, he was also in pain. When Su Wanwan was distressed, Su Wanwan was hurt, and Su Wanwan was bullied, he was even more painful.

  Then he thought, forget it, life is so long, how can he spend his whole life without being with the one he deeply loves.

  He compromised and lowered his head, even if she didn't love him, he still wanted to love her well.

  But... she can't love him, so why give him those false hopes?

  Her smile is fake, her kiss is fake, her sweet words are also fake, and even when she calls out that one word "husband", it's also fake? And what about the phone call just now...

  It's also her careful plan!
