Real And Fake Young Lady: I Have Seven Brothers Pampering Me After I Transmigrated
Chapter 667 - 667 A Teaching Moment667 A Teaching Moment
Su Ming understood what Su Kun meant, but he did not risk his life like Su Kun did when he was young. He did not crawl through the quagmire of human nature and use everything he could to put together this family business. That was why he only knew about it, but he did not know how to use it, nor did he know how to be on guard against it.
Su Kun was already middle-aged, and had seen a lot of the world. He knew very well where his son’s flaws lay. Su Ming was adequately smart and thorough, but he lacked experience. He was still too naive.
Su Ming was already considered one of the best among his peers, but if he wanted to take over Su Kun’s position and take the Su family to the next level, he could not limit himself to his current standards. He had to read people better, to understand his opponent better than himself.
At that moment, someone knocked on the door. Su Ming asked loudly, “What is it?”
The secretary outside the door replied respectfully, “Junior President Su, the guest list has been sorted out. Do you want to take a look?”
Su Ming looked at Su Kun’s expression and hesitated for a moment before calling him in.
Of course, this did not escape Su Kun’s gaze. He exhaled and waited for the secretary to hand the things over to Su Ming. Once he left the room, Su Kun stretched out his hand. “Let me have a look.”
Su Ming hastily handed the list to Su Kun. Su Kun glanced at it and, with his vision, saw some names quickly. Suddenly, a familiar name came into view. He raised his eyebrows in surprise and confirmed that it was a list of family members. Su Kun lifted his head and pointed at the name. “Chu Ning? Why is she on the list of family members? You didn’t send her an invitation?”
Su Kun had a deep impression of this girl. She was an intelligent, ambitious, and lucky young girl.
Su Ming stuck his head out and saw Chu Ning’s name. He scratched his head. “Isn’t her Cloud Shopping already bought by Zhou Hao from the Zhou family? Isn’t the Soaring Clouds Group only left with The Parade, a property that hasn’t been developed yet? She wouldn’t fit in with the class of this banquet, right?” The more he spoke, the lower his voice became. In the end, he swallowed the last syllable.
Su Kun looked at Su Ming in silence. His calm gaze made Su Ming lower his head further. Just as his head was about to hit the floor, Su Kun slammed the name list on the table. Su Ming trembled when he heard the sound.
Su Kun sternly said, “Raise your head! What do you look like with your head lowered! Did you become a thief?”
Su Ming lifted his head as if he was in military training. So swiftly did he do so that the sound of air being sliced apart could be heard. Su Kun looked at his son’s appearance and held his forehead, his head aching.
Su Kun did not want his son to be like when he was young, as timid as a mouse. He took a few deep breaths and suppressed his anger before saying, “This banquet is to help you open up your network and also to let you see your generation’s opponents.”
Before outsiders, Su Kun was calm and still as a mountain. This disappeared without a trace in front of his son. “I think you’re already considered a rookie, so I left the matter of inviting and distributing invitations to you without intervening at all. Now it seems that I’ve overestimated you. You’re not applying what you’ve learnt; you’re obviously getting progressively more foolish!”
Su Ming was not a fool. From the moment he started explaining his reasons without any confidence, he knew where he had gone wrong. When he sensed his father’s anger, he did not dare to interrupt for a while. He could only lower his gaze and listen to his father’s lecture.
Su Kun let out a long breath and took the cup of water from his son. He then asked unhurriedly, “Do you know where you went wrong?”
Su Ming immediately nodded and said sincerely, “I know. Your son should not use money to get people, and he should not look down on anyone.”
Su Kun listened to the decent apology and nodded reluctantly. “I remember that I mentioned this Chu Ning to you. Before you came back, her Cloud Shopping was bought over. However, the main point is not whose hands this is in, but that she is a child from an ordinary family. For her to have such thoughts and even poach talents to succeed in this matter shows that she cannot be underestimated.”
Su Ming nodded repeatedly. Su Kun continued, “Others think that she can only rely on Cloud Shopping. That’s because they’re short-sighted and stupid. I won’t allow you to be like them. The current Soaring Clouds Group and Cloud Shopping are just novelties to me and the Su family. They’re not worth mentioning. However, as long as Chu Ning is still around and she hasn’t given up, her future will definitely not be so simple.”
