Chapter 240: Comeback Banquet
Su Yuan's mother, that is, Su Ling's stepmother, Cheng Jin, has been living a cautious life after the Su family went bankrupt.
But she has never refused to let go of her dignity as a noble lady, and she still consumes a lot when she should spend a lot of money, which also causes the Su family's economy to become even weaker.
If it weren't for Lu Qianqi's help later, I'm afraid that Su's financial resources would still be as sluggish as smoking opium.
On this day, when she was playing cards with a few good ladies, several people suddenly talked about Su Ling.
I don't know who started it, Lu Cheng is now one of the top consortium CEOs, and Su Ling will inevitably be mentioned.
"Don't you know? Your eldest daughter Su Ling is now running her own company, and her business is faster than the original Su family. ”
A noble lady said to Cheng Jin.
Her words are somewhat adding fuel and vinegar, no matter how fast Su Ling's company develops, it is impossible to surpass the Su family before bankruptcy in a short period of time.
But Cheng Jin just eats this set very much.
Hearing this kind of thing, Cheng Jin was naturally angry, how could he say that Su Ling was also his nominal daughter, and he actually ignored him like this.
Su Ling had harmed their mother and daughter so badly before, but now she only cares about herself.
The more Cheng Jin thought about it, the more angry he became, and decided to go directly to Su Ling's company to confront her.
As everyone knows, those noble ladies who saw the success of the trick had already used her as a joke that could be used at will, and they were all afraid that the world would not be chaotic.
But at this time, Su Ling was busy preparing for the wedding with Meng Shanshan, and she didn't have time to go back to the company at all.
Cheng Jin pounced, even more annoyed, and simply stayed in Su Ling's office.
The whole company knew Cheng Jin's identity and didn't dare to step forward to cause trouble.
Only Su Ling's personal secretary tried to persuade this noble lady who was angry, and her attitude was also respectful.
"That, Mrs. Cheng, Miss Su is not here today, or will you come back another day?"
"She's a wolf-hearted thing! When I was developed, I forgot my parents, but I am also her mother!"
Cheng Jin lost his temper at the secretary, and casually broke many documents on Su Ling's desk.
Seeing this, the secretary didn't dare to say anything more, so she had to step aside and pick up the documents she threw on the ground page by page.
And Cheng Jin is still scolding.
"Your boss really doesn't understand filial piety at all, it's really the misfortune of our Su family, how did you raise a white-eyed wolf."
"Madame, please be quiet!."
I don't know who reported the news, but the deputy general manager rushed over in time and interrupted her.
"Who are you? Why do you care about me?"
Cheng Jin looked at him contemptuously and raised his head high, as if he wanted him to quickly recognize his identity.
"I am the vice president of this company, and when the general manager is not there, I will manage the company's affairs on my behalf."
"You are the vice president of a small company, how dare you talk to me like this?"
Cheng Jin's already obviously middle-aged face was full of disdain, and his raised eyebrows seemed to be specially designed to disdain people.
Seeing that the deputy general manager seemed to be just a young man in his early twenties, Cheng Jin seemed to be more convinced that Su Ling had no capable employees here.
Everyone is naturally dissatisfied with her attitude, but they are all just small employees under Su Ling, how dare they confront such a real wealthy lady.
Only the deputy general manager dares.
Because the vice president was originally transferred from Lucheng Company, it was Lucheng who specially asked him to assist Su Ling.
If it is a business tycoon like Lu Cheng behind it, the effect will naturally be completely different.
The deputy general manager didn't take Cheng Jin seriously at all, but he also maintained the last courtesy to her.
"Mrs. Cheng, I don't want you to be embarrassed, if you don't leave, I will take legal action."
Cheng Jin didn't expect the deputy general manager to dare to refute himself, and glared at him in surprise.
"I don't think you want to go to the police station once for intentional harassment, you are a decent person."
The deputy general manager still had a standard polite smile on his face, but his words were very intimidating, faintly threatening.
"Okay, you actually drove me away, you wait and see, the Su family will definitely make Su Ling, a ruined girl, pay the price."
Cheng Jin realized that he would not see Su Ling if he continued to consume like this, and it might even cause even more commotion. So he left stupidly, and didn't forget to leave a few more threatening words before leaving.
Everyone in the company breathed a sigh of relief and began to busy their respective tasks again, in an orderly manner.
The secretary quickly reported the matter to Su Ling, who was choosing a wedding venue with Meng Shanshan.
Su Ling was very surprised that Cheng Jin would come to her company to find her, and she thought that Cheng Jin would not come to reap her own benefits if she was killed.
But she underestimated the thickness of Cheng Jin's skin.
And Meng Shanshan was even more indignant, accusing Cheng Jin's quality of not being Su Ling's stepmother at all, and not worthy of Su Ling's filial piety.
"Lingling, you should come with me for this banquet."
It's been a long time since the last "party event".
Su Ling has been locked up at home by Lu Cheng for a long time, and she is about to go crazy.
Suddenly hearing Lu Cheng say this, she couldn't believe her ears.
"You're not kidding, are you?"
Su Ling stared at Lu Cheng's eyes in a daze, hoping to see from them whether Gangcai's words were true or false.
"It's not."
Lu Cheng smiled, looking at Su Ling's eyes full of doting.
Su Ling felt like she had a dream, and then her dream came true. A smile gradually spread across his face.
"But there is one condition - you must not be alone, if you don't stay by my side, try to be with Meng Shanshan."
Lu Cheng was obviously apprehensive about what happened last time, but seeing Su Ling staying at home and being depressed, he couldn't bear it, so he decided to take her to this business party.
"I will, I will."
Su Ling nodded desperately, now as long as she can go out to breathe, it's best to talk to others about work-related things, then she is willing to do anything.
Lu Cheng felt distressed and relieved when he saw her suddenly look so refreshed, and habitually scratched her nose.
This is a unique gesture between the two of them to express intimacy, and every time it can make people feel extra warmth, and there will never be a time when they get tired.
This party can be said to be bigger than the last one, whether it is a rookie in the industry or a business bigwig, everyone came to this party.
Su Ling wore the same dress as last time, and Lu Cheng stayed by her side from the beginning.
"Poof, you look like my bodyguard."
Looking at Lu Cheng's nervous appearance, Su Ling couldn't help laughing.
"Then you are going to be your bodyguard for life, how are you going to compensate me?"
Lu Cheng leaned down, leaned close to her ear, and whispered.
Su Ling was a little embarrassed and quickly changed the topic.
"You still have a lot of clients to meet, right? You don't have to worry too much about me. ”
"Have you forgotten how we agreed?"
As if he wanted to punish him, Lu Cheng patted Su Ling lightly on the head, but the action was clearly intimate.
Lu Cheng's actions attracted the attention of several passers-by, and Su Ling's face became redder as a result.
At this moment, Su Ling found Meng Shanshan and Yan Tianming, who also came to the banquet.
Yan Tianming and Meng Shanshan, as business rookies, naturally will not miss such a major event.
"It's all old husbands and wives, and it's still so difficult to separate."
Meng Shanshan and Yan Tianming also discovered them almost at the same time, and Meng Shanshan couldn't help but make fun of the two.
"That's right, Shanshan, you accompany me, save someone from worrying."
Su Ling got up Meng Shanshan's arm late, turned around and grimaced at Lu Cheng.
Lu Cheng smiled helplessly, glanced at Yan Tianming, who had the same expression, and said:
"Meng Shanshan accompanies you, don't worry, you go eat something, the two of us are going to talk about business."
After that, he pulled Yan Tianming to deal with those who wanted to drink with him.
"Cut, only you men are allowed to talk about business, and I have to get some investment in my own company."
Looking at the back of Lu Cheng leaving, Su Ling muttered quietly.
As a friend, Meng Shanshan naturally knew Su Ling's thoughts.
She has always wanted to prove her ability in her career, and Lu Cheng also greatly respected her will, otherwise he would not have brought her to such a large business gathering.
It's like she and Yan Tianming want to work hard from scratch.
Su Ling and Meng Shanshan went to the food area first.
The food at this kind of business gathering is basically self-service, just holding a plate and clip to your favorite food.
After they had eaten and drunk enough, they went to fulfill the true purpose of their trip.
That is to pull sponsorship for your company and find business partners.
There are a lot of new customers here, and there are also some potential stocks, or the inheritors of the previous generation of business tycoons, so they are very valuable.
Su Ling and Meng Shanshan walked around, and they also got acquainted with some more powerful sponsors.
They talked about their careers together, which made Su Ling feel like working in the company again.
However, the people who come to this business banquet are not only those new customers.
For example, there are some old businessmen who are now hiding their edges.
Originally, Su Mingting disdained to participate in this kind of occasion, and he had partners and connections.
But after the bankruptcy of the Su family, this was the first time that Su Mingting participated in such a large party event.
Originally, with the secret help of Lu Qianqi, the Su family had a tendency to come back to life.
But perhaps because of the bankruptcy and scandal before, the credibility of the Su Group has been greatly reduced in the entire industry.
This also led to Su Mingting's cooperation that he has not talked about until now.
Su Mingting was extremely annoyed.
At this moment, he actually saw his eldest daughter, Su Ling, who was originally kicked out of the house by himself, talking happily with several investors.
It seems that the rumors that her own company is growing rapidly are not fabricated out of thin air.
