Chapter 202: Chapter 202: If you dare to leverage my influence, I’ll make sure you can’t survive in the entertainment industry!

Su Zhen walked as if he were sleepwalking, having just undergone surgery, he hadn’t fully recovered yet, and his complexion was frighteningly pale.

But more than that, his gaze toward Lin Ranyue sitting there with her husband was complex.

His eyes, unconsciously moving downward, fell on Lin Ranyue’s still flat abdomen.

The next moment, Gu Lei, sitting beside Lin Ranyue, suddenly leaned over, blocking Su Zhen’s line of sight with his body.

Su Zhen: "..."

Although Su Man’s high-profile appearance attracted everyone’s attention,

fortunately, she didn’t cause any trouble afterward.

She just sat at the table nearby, browsing something on her light brain the whole time.

As for Su Zhen, perhaps because of the impact of the preceding events, or because he hadn’t fully recovered from the surgery, he said very few words from beginning to end.

Su Wan thus didn’t bother to pay too much attention to them.

As she ate, she thought about meeting Jina later.

Although Su Wan knew that Alex wouldn’t harm her,

her current condition really wasn’t suitable for going to a hotel outside alone.

Maybe once the guests left, she could have Alex and the others come to the Su Family villa instead.

There are many spare rooms here; she just needed to mention it to her grandfather.

Su Wan was deep in thought about the matter when she suddenly noticed Grandma Meira looking somewhat distracted,

glancing over at the neighboring table... the direction of Su Man and Su Zhen from time to time with a puzzled look.

Su Wan curiously asked, "Grandma Meira, what’s the matter?"

"Oh, it’s nothing."

Although she said it was nothing, her expression was far from good.

Midway through the banquet, Su Wan accompanied her mother, Lin Ranyue, to the restroom. Just as she finished washing her hands and looked up, she saw Grandma Meira had also come in.

After hesitating for a few seconds, Meira said, "Xiaowan, the person who talked to you earlier in the red dress, is she your sister?"

"Oh, she’s the adopted daughter of Su Zhen, born to his current wife, so she’s not really related to me."

Su Zhen had already severed the father-daughter relationship with her.

So what did his adopted daughter have to do with her?

Listening to the indifference in Su Wan’s words, Meira knew their relationship was not good, and then said with relief, "My ex-husband remarried, and his current wife looks very much like this Su Man."

Su Wan was stunned.

"The man Su Man married seems to be called Nick, a director who also owns an entertainment company."

Meira suddenly smiled, "That’s her then, my ex-husband is Nick. I never expected that the young star Nick has just married would turn out to be Old Su’s granddaughter."

Su Wan corrected her, "Although Su Man calls my grandfather ’grandpa,’ she was adopted by Su Zhen and isn’t my grandfather’s biological granddaughter. After all, she lived in the Su Family for a few years, and grandfather regards her as a junior, but he is very rational and clear-headed. He’s aware of the unflattering things Su Man has done."

Meira breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

The world is indeed so small.

Meira would have never guessed when she first met Mr. Su that Mr. Su’s son’s adopted daughter would marry her ex-husband.

Seeing that Mr. Su didn’t favor Su Man, Meira did not continue the topic.

She nodded and went into the restroom first.

Just as Lin Ranyue came out of the restroom, she asked in confusion, "Xiaowan, what’s with that look on your face?"

Su Wan: "Mom, I’ll tell you something... very magical later when there’s time."

She wondered if Su Man was aware that, in her effort to avoid being assigned a man by the Main System and after lots of careful selection, she ended up marrying... her current step-grandmother’s ex-husband.

The relationships were so complex they were somewhat of a tongue twister.

Speaking of the devil, as Su Wan and her mother Lin Ranyue were heading back to the banquet hall, they suddenly saw a flurry of red as a dress swirled in front of them.

"Sister, it’s been a long time since we’ve seen each other. Don’t leave tonight. We really need to have a good talk,"

Su Man’s lips curved slightly.

She had practiced many times. That angle of her smile was perfect.

Looking at her overly plastic-surgeried face, Su Wan said seriously, "Su Man, I still think that your original face was prettier."

Su Man forced a smile, "Sister, what are you joking about?"

Su Wan: "Honestly, if you don’t believe me, there’s nothing I can do. Besides, you clearly hate me so much, yet suddenly you’re being so friendly with me. It’s truly baffling."

"Sister, I was immature about the past, I apologize to you. Can you just forgive me, please?"

"No."

Su Wan narrowed her eyes, scrutinizing Su Man, when she suddenly realized something.

"You couldn’t be using the title of the Commander’s wife’s sister to get ahead in the entertainment industry, could you?"

Su Man: "!!!!"

Su Wan saw a hint of guilt flash across that artificial face.

Which only solidified her suspicion more!

She said coldly, "Su Man, I’m warning you. How you mix in the entertainment industry is your business; we move in different circles, and I won’t meddle. But if you dare use my name... do you believe that I can make it so you can’t survive in this circle? Don’t provoke me, because if you do, your husband Nick won’t be able to protect you!"

Su Man’s face turned completely pale, "Sister, I didn’t..." 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Su Wan: "Don’t call me sister again. It nauseates me. Either call me by my name directly, or just shut up."

Su Man trembled with anger, her sharp nails digging into her palms.

But she didn’t dare to say another word.

By the time Su Wan and Lin Ranyue left, Su Man was still resentfully watching Su Wan.

And like Su Wan had eyes in the back of her head, she walked a few steps, suddenly turned around, and gave Su Man a slight smile.

"Oh, and next time you have a script, remember to put more expression on your face when acting. Otherwise, if your features don’t change at all, people will think your heroine is two-dimensional."

Su Man: "..."

As they were about to return to the banquet hall, Lin Ranyue gave her daughter a thumbs-up.

She said, "I’m finally convinced that you weren’t just talking big when you said you wouldn’t let anyone bully you."

Su Wan: "It’s not that I confront anyone I see. It’s just that Su Man is too disgusting to look at. I have to check later to see if she’s really up to something using my name!"

Although it was just a guess, based on Su Wan’s understanding of Su Man, there was a high chance she was already up to something under her name.

Su Wan had Vermilion Bird search the internet for information about Su Yurou.

To see if there was any news linking her with the Commander.

Su Wan was truly speechless about Su Man.

So many times, if she just behaved, she wouldn’t have any problems.

Wasn’t it good to live a peaceful life?

But she wouldn’t stop causing trouble.

Always stirring things up.

Like now, wasn’t being a rich old man’s pampered young wife good enough?

As the birthday party was about to wind down, Su Wan specially called over Alex.

She whispered, "I can’t go out, so bring Jina to the Su Family later, when most of the guests have left. Don’t worry, even if the Luo Family really shows up, they will still give me face."

Alex looked at Su Wan, guiltily saying, "Sorry, I almost forgot you’re pregnant. Okay, I’ll go find Jina now, and we’ll come to see you later. I’ll send you a message."

"Alright."

This scene was once again noticed by a waiter not far away.

After taking another photo, they forwarded all of it to Su Man.
