The Outcast Heiress's Secret Identities-Chapter 838 - 0827 Invitation
Chapter 838: 0827 Invitation
Su Ran instantly froze, only glaring at him fiercely.
In terms of admitting defeat, she was always adept at it!
After a moment, she snorted softly, turned around, and faced away from the man.
Fu Qiyuan raised his eyebrows, moved forward, and reached out to pull her into his arms.
Su Ran pushed away the hand on her waist, moving her body forward.
Fu Qiyuan helplessly followed, but as he moved, the girl moved too.
After repeating this twice, a light sigh filled the air, followed by a deep voice.
"Move any further and you’re going to fall!"
Sure enough, Su Ran stopped moving!
Fu Qiyuan stepped forward, took her into his arms, and held her shoulders, making her face him.
Su Ran’s watery eyes widened slightly, seemingly glaring at him in dissatisfaction.
Seeing this, Fu Qiyuan’s lips curved slightly, "Angry?"
Su Ran’s eyes widened even more, looking genuinely angry.
In the next second, as if she’d thought of something, a glint appeared in her eyes, and her expression returned to normal.
"The Fu family and the Chu family have been friends for generations. You and Chu Xiyao grew up together, couldn’t the Fu family’s traditions have been imparted to her?"
Fu Qiyuan glanced at her, "The Fu family’s traditions are only passed on to daughters-in-law!"
"Isn’t she the Fu family’s designated daug..."
Before Su Ran could finish her sentence, Fu Qiyuan’s cold gaze swept over.
She instinctively stopped, coughed lightly, and said:
"Are you sure the Fu family’s traditions are only passed on to daughters-in-law?"
"Yes."
Su Ran nodded in satisfaction, looked at Fu Qiyuan, a sly glint appearing in her eyes.
"Fu Qiyuan, will you marry me?"
"Yes!" The single word was firm and irrefutable.
Su Ran’s lips curled, "So, am I considered the Fu family’s daughter-in-law?"
"..." Fu Qiyuan paused, his gaze suddenly deepened as he looked at her.
Su Ran ignored his expression and continued:
"If I am the Fu family’s daughter-in-law, what’s wrong with passing the Fu family’s traditions to me?"
Fu Qiyuan’s brows knitted, "..."
"Or did you never think of marrying me? Not seeing me as the Fu family’s daughter-in-law? Thinking I am unworthy of inheriting the Fu family’s traditions?"
"..."
Fu Qiyuan’s brow twitched, her three rapid-fire questions leaving him speechless.
Thinking it over, he surprisingly found her reasoning quite logical.
A smug smile appeared in Su Ran’s eyes, her lips curling involuntarily.
Humph! Still can’t manage you!
Fu Qiyuan captured the girl’s subtle expressions, his deep gaze silently observing her.
After a moment, the hand around her waist moved slightly, tracing upwards, caressing gently.
Su Ran trembled, her entire body tensed.
She looked at the man warily, her face guarded:
"What are you doing?"
Fu Qiyuan leaned close, his warm breath brushing her neck, accompanied by a series of dense kisses.
Followed by the man’s deep, raspy voice.
"You seem quite talkative. Guess you’re not tired enough!"
Su Ran shuddered, she’d die if this continued!
Frustrated, she bit her lip, quickly hugging the man, closing her eyes, and lightly rubbing against him, her voice weak.
"I’m tired. Let’s sleep."
Hearing this, Fu Qiyuan’s hands gradually stopped moving. He raised his eyes to look at the tightly shut-eyed girl, his lips curving, a hint of amusement in his eyes.
He pulled the blanket over both of them, holding her as he too closed his eyes.
Little troublemaker, still can’t handle you!
-
The next day.
Su Ran went to Enrich before heading to the company.
Chongguang had Ye Zhichen, so it required less of her attention!
As Enrich grew as a subsidiary of Qianran International, certain old rules from the Su Family naturally wouldn’t apply under her management.
The first step of Su Ran’s reform was to replace all corrupt policies and underperforming senior employees.
With Paris Fashion Week approaching, many were eyeing Qianran International. As a subsidiary, Enrich naturally attracted attention too.
Luckily, Enrich had been revitalized and was performing well with smooth operations.
However, she also had to manage the vast Qianran International and couldn’t always divert her attention to Enrich.
It seemed it was time to promote a CEO!
Su Ran was contemplating this issue as she returned to the company.
After considering it thoroughly, she realized there were no suitable candidates.
Sitting in her office chair, deep in thought, a knock came on her office door.
Su Ran snapped back, responding lightly.
"Come in."
Next second, the office door opened and Qin Ke walked in.
"President Su, someone sent an invitation."
Su Ran glanced lightly at the item in Qin Ke’s hand, showing little interest.
Since her identity was revealed at the World Designer Competition, she frequently received invitations from various parties.
Mostly, she asked Qin Ke to prepare a gift instead.
Su Ran tapped her desk, Qin Ke understood and placed the invitation on the desk, turning to leave, only to be called back by Su Ran.
"President Su?"
Su Ran was silent for two seconds before saying:
"Notify all departments, meeting in the conference room in ten minutes."
"Yes."
After Qin Ke left, Su Ran picked up the invitation on the desk, scrutinized it, then slowly opened it.
Seeing the contents, she paused slightly.
Li Xu...and Miss Ning’s engagement party?
Engagement party?
How did this happen so suddenly?
Su Ran stared at the invitation in her hand, her eyes falling on the bride’s name.
She had heard of Ning Family in Yong City.
This Miss Ning was the cherished jewel of Ning Family, exceptionally talented and loved by Ning Family, achieving double MSc degrees at just twenty-four.
Truly a brilliant scholar praised by all!
She remembered Miss Ning studied at the same school as Li Family’s princess, Li Sheng.
Even their university majors were the same!
Su Ran placed the invitation on the desk, leaning back in her chair.
Li Xu was also a prominent figure in Yong City, and she’d certainly heard the legends about him.
This Miss Ning had been his junior at school, but she’d never heard of them having much interaction, how could they suddenly be engaged?
Su Ran held her head slightly, deep in thought, until Qin Ke came in to remind her it was time for the meeting.
She looked again at the invitation on the desk, sighed softly, opened a drawer, and placed the invitation inside.
An alliance between Li Family and Ning Family was indeed a joyous occasion for everyone.
Only...
Someone was bound to be hurt!
Su Ran picked up the files on her desk and entered the conference room with Qin Ke.
Today’s meeting mainly focused on Paris Fashion Week, the candidate for Enrich’s CEO, and some urgent work arrangements.
Though Zhou Ziyi and Nan Shuyun were overseeing Paris Fashion Week, some details still required confirmation and discussion.
