In This Life, I Will Extremely Pamper My Short-Lived Husband-Chapter 178: A Meddlesome Bitch Like Her
Chapter 178: Chapter 178: A Meddlesome Bitch Like Her
"Such an old age and still not worried about marrying yourself off, what exactly do you want to do?" Song Jian said angrily.
Song You raised her head and finally looked Song Jian in the eye, but her expression was anything but familial.
"Do you think the Song Group would still be what it is today without me?" Song You said coldly, really regretting not listening to Jinzhi earlier and breaking away from Song Group entirely.
Upon hearing this, Song Jian’s face stiffened, growing even angrier, "The Song Group has its present scale because of my leadership; what does that have to do with you?"
"You don’t fear your words could be laughable?" Song You replied mockingly, giving no face.
"You..."
"If you don’t leave now, tomorrow morning there will be a board meeting where we will elect a new chairman," Song You threatened coldly, unwilling to listen to any more of Song Jian’s nonsense.
"Song You!" Song Jian was unable to contain his fury, unable to believe she would dare threaten him like this.
Seeing Song Jian about to explode with rage, Song You finally felt a bit relieved, even managing a smile.
Song You continued, "Didn’t you say that the company got this far under your leadership?"
"Since that’s so, what are you afraid of at the board meeting?"
"They should support you wholeheartedly!"
Song Jian did not reply, just glared at Song You as if he wanted to tear her apart.
Even if shameless, he couldn’t change the fact that those old bastards no longer saw him as the boss!
The more he thought about it, the angrier Song Jian became. He hadn’t figured out when exactly his own daughter had usurped his place.
And Song You couldn’t care less, the angrier Song Jian was, the happier she became. She even watched him squarely, as if enjoying his twisted expressions.
Until Song Jian, infuriated, turned around and exited; the office door slammed shut with such force it seemed he wanted to smash it.
Song You laughed mockingly, really failing to understand how such a person could be her father.
That evening, Song You had a social engagement, and left the company directly after work was finished.
The dinner ended quickly, but after it, everyone went to a club, and Song You naturally joined them.
Such places seemed to easily reveal people’s true natures; after a short while in the private room, a man who had just seemed mild-mannered began spouting absurdities.
Thankfully, they knew their limits and did not make a move on Song You, who pretended not to care and took the opportunity to leave partway through.
Song You went to the restroom and smoked a cigarette before leaving. But just as she stepped out, she ran into a drunk man being supported by a waiter.
And that man was someone Song You knew.
It had been a while since she had heard anything about Zhou Linsen, and seeing him now felt somewhat unfamiliar.
Zhou Linsen, quite drunk, seemed dazed. When he saw Song You, he recognized her and began smiling foolishly at her.
But Song You merely looked on coldly, with no intention of greeting him.
This man was disliked by Jinzhi, and she disliked him as well.
However, just as they were about to pass by each other, Zhou Linsen suddenly broke free from the waiter supporting him and reached out to grab Song You.
Song You’s arm was seized by Zhou Linsen and she immediately frowned, trying to shake his hand off.
But Zhou Linsen was gripping hard, and Song You couldn’t throw him off immediately; instead, she was nearly pulled to the ground by him.
"Zhou Linsen, are you crazy!" Song You shouted angrily.
Zhou Linsen smiled at Song You, then slurred, "How is that damn Xu Jinzhi doing now?"
Hearing Zhou Linsen curse Xu Jinzhi, Song You’s face changed, yet Zhou Linsen, too drunk to notice, kept laughing, "If it hadn’t been for her, we would definitely be together now, I wouldn’t have..."
"Ah!"
Zhou Linsen belched, his words trailing off as he collected himself and continued, "Now she’s getting her comeuppance, right?"
"Hahaha, perfect."
"That kind of meddlesome bitch deserves a good lesson!"
"Once taught, naturally she’ll be tamed."
Song You would not allow anyone to speak ill of Xu Jinzhi in her presence!
Even knowing that she was physically underpowered and might harm herself by doing so, Song You couldn’t help herself.
But just before Song You could react, she heard Zhou Linsen continue, "But she’s too lucky, discovered halfway by Xie Yanchuan."
Song You paused, her expression turning complex, "How do you know that?"
How could Zhou Linsen know the specifics of Xu Jinzhi’s trouble after the incident?
No, although the media hadn’t covered it, enough people in Xu Group had known that rumors could have leaked.
If Zhou Linsen wanted to find out, he certainly could have.
But after Song You asked this, Zhou Linsen just kept laughing, looking at Song You, and she felt something was very off!
Something really off!
In a flash of insight, Song You thought there was absolutely no way this situation didn’t involve Zhou Linsen.
"Did you do this!" Song You accused fiercely.
Zhou Linsen just looked at Song You and laughed, saying nothing, just laughing continuously, and Song You sank down, feeling she had guessed correctly - Zhou Linsen was behind this.
Thinking that Zhou Linsen had done this, possibly because of her, Song You was uncontrollable, raising her hand and hitting him.
Zhou Linsen, thoroughly drunk, was incited by the hit, anger rising inside.
Along with previous discontent towards Song You and Xu Jinzhi, everything erupted, and they started fighting right then.
Zhou Linsen was drunk, but this made his anger rise after being provoked by Song You.
Song You was completely no match for Zhou Linsen and fought recklessly, taking hits and fighting back.
A waiter tried to intervene, but was unable to stop them, struggled alone while another hurried to get help.
The commotion was too loud, and Song You’s people soon learned of it; on Song You’s order, they called the police.
