34 Marriage.

If Zhu Ling moved even a little bit, the knife will cut her neck. Sweat was formed on her forehead.

"S-Su X-Xi, I never meant that! Please l-let me go."

Zhu Ling now understood that it was better to leave tigress sleep. Because if one tries to wake her up, she will catch and attack you.

"You better stay in your limits, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless. Understood?" Su Xi asked in a threatening tone.

"Y-yes, I w-will stay in my limits. Please leave me now!" Zhu Ling begged her.

She wanted to live. What will she do of money is she is dead?

Su Xi let her go and Zhu Ling directly fell on her knees with a loud thud.

Su Xi let go of the knife and went towards her dressing room. She came out with a makeup box. It was not hers but an extra one.

"Use this and hide that slap mark. It will only be better for you because if you try to gain sympathy from dad because of this, he will just ignore you. Here, take it." Su Xi handed the makeup kit to her.

She didn't want her family reunion is ruined because of acting and so-called confidence.

"Come out in few minutes. I will say that you had to use the washroom so we came here." Su Xi still spoke in her cold tone but it was less cold as compared to earlier when she threatens her.

Zhu Ling nodded and Su Xi went outside.

She saw Ye Shing taking ti Father Su with a serious tone.

"What are grandfather and grandson talking?" she approached them with a smile.

"Su Xi, Ah Shing is really good. I think he should take over the Su business. Ah Shan is still small." Father Su said.

He gave his family business to Ye Huo to manage because his own son was very small. Later, Su Sing built up his own company so the family business was handed over to Ye Huo completely under Su Xi's name.

But after his death, she is managing it. So he wants her son to succeed.

"Dad, he still isn't ready. It is his wish, whatever he wants. I will support him in every decision." Su Xi stated. She just wants her children to be happy and safe.

"But Su X-"

"Dad, when is your guest is arriving? Dinner is ready."

"He is coming soon." Was all that he said.

'He?!?!' So Father Su's guest is some man. But who?

...

After some time, Su Xi heard a car's voice coming from outside. She ran outside and saw her precious brother.

"Sing..." she ran and hugged him tightly. He was someone who used to support her. He was there for her for the last two years.

"Sister, I missed you so much." For him, his sister and brother-in-law were next parents. He was more close to them as compared to his own father.

She cupped his face, "How have you been? Your hairs have grown so much." Su Xi's eyes were contained of gentleness.

"I'm good. I brought someone here." Su Xi was surprised. "Who?"

Then, Su Xi shifted her eyes and saw another person coming down from the car. It was Zu Jiwen!

"Zu Jiwen..." She was shocked. Why her father will call him? He knew who he was and he knew this also that he like her but still? Has her father gone insane?

"Su Xi, I think you are not happy to see me?" Zu Jiwen asked after noticing her expression.

Su Xi recovered from her shock and shook her head. "But Zu Jiwen, why dad called you?"

"I don't know. Uncle said he wants to talk about some important matters. He sends Su Sing to fetch me so I came." It was reasonable. Father Su was elder to him and he respects him so he came.

"Both of you, come inside. Dinner is almost ready."

The three of them walked inside and everyone came on the dining table. "It is after so long that everyone is having dinner together." Zhu Ling behaved normally and didn't speak much. It was fine with Su Xi also. Many favorite dishes of Su Sing and Father Su were made. Butler Ni knew the liking of both of them.

After Dinner, Father Su gathered everyone in the hall.

"All, come here. I have an important announcement to make."

Everyone made their way to the hall, "Which announcement grandfather?" Ye Nian asked.

"I'm fixing, Zu Jiwen's and Su Xi's marriage."
