Chapter 110 A banquet will be held tomorrow.
The next day was the day that Grandpa Su was discharged from the hospital after recovering from his illness.
Su Yingxue and Tan Zhengchu arrived at the hospital early, ready to visit Grandpa Su.
Grandpa Su was sitting on the hospital bed when he saw Su Yingxue walk in, and a smile immediately appeared in his eyes.
His lips trembled slightly, but no sound came out.
Su Yingxue quickly walked to the bedside, gently took his hand, and said softly, "Grandpa, don't worry, you'll definitely be able to speak again soon. Your illness really scared me, it's so good that you can be discharged now."
Tan Zhengchu stepped forward, bowed slightly, and greeted him politely: "Grandpa Su, congratulations on your discharge from the hospital. Take good care of yourself at home and you will surely recover completely. You look much better than I expected, which shows that you are in very good health."
Grandpa Su looked at Su Yingxue and Tan Zhengchu with eyes full of satisfaction and affection.
His eyes seemed to say, "Seeing you two together puts my mind at ease."
However, Su Yingxue's second uncle, Su Zhijian, returned with a gloomy expression after completing the discharge procedures.
He glanced at Su Yingxue, his eyes filled with indifference, and didn't say a word.
He merely let out a soft hum, his tone as if to say, "What are you doing here?"
Su Zhijian harbored deep suspicion towards Su Yingxue.
After all, she held more than 60 percent of the shares in Feiyang Group, which made him feel like he had a bone stuck in his throat.
He even thought to himself, "These shares should rightfully belong to the Su family. Why should a little girl like her get so many?"
Grandpa Su keenly sensed Su Zhijian's unfriendly attitude, and his expression darkened slightly.
She looked at Su Zhijian with a hint of reproach in her eyes, as if to say, "How could you treat Yingxue like this?"
Su Zhijian pushed Grandpa Su's wheelchair out, as if Su Yingxue didn't exist.
Aunt Su, watching from the side, felt a little sorry for Su Yingxue and stepped forward to comfort her: "Yingxue, don't take it to heart. Come home to visit often when you have time. That's just how your second uncle is. Don't take it to heart."
Su Yingxue nodded slightly, but a hint of loneliness lingered in her eyes. She said softly, "Aunt Su, I know, thank you."
Just then, Zhao Da Kuang walked into the ward with a ghostly chill.
His gaze shot towards Old Master Su like a sharp arrow.
Old Master Su's gaze shifted slightly, but he did not show any resistance.
There was just a hint of complex emotion in his eyes.
Zhao Da Kuang spoke, his voice low and hoarse: "I've come to pick up Grandpa Su from the hospital."
As he spoke, he slowly walked towards Su Yingxue, a barely perceptible smile flashing in his eyes.
His smile sent chills down one's spine. He looked at Su Yingxue and said, "Miss Su, how have you been?"
Tan Zhengchu reacted instantly and stepped forward to protect Su Yingxue.
He glared at Zhao Dakang warily, as if warning him not to come any closer, and said loudly, "Who are you? What are you doing here? It seems that it is not your place to interfere in the affairs of our Su family."
A faint, ambiguous smile slowly appeared on Tan Zhengchu's lips.
But the coldness in his eyes was enough to frighten: "You'd better give me a reasonable explanation, or don't blame me for being impolite."
Ignoring Tan Zhengchu's questioning, Zhao Dakang loudly announced, "A banquet will be held at the Su family tomorrow to celebrate Old Master Su's discharge from the hospital. We hope you will all grace us with your presence."
After saying that, Zhao Er stepped forward and handed over the invitation.
Tan Zhengchu reached out and took the invitation, then slowly opened it.
After glancing at it, he looked up and said, "In that case, Yingxue and I will definitely attend on time. However, I want to see what kind of tricks this banquet has up its sleeve."
Su Yingxue frowned, her mind filled with doubt.
Looking at her grandfather's health condition, she really didn't understand why they were in such a hurry to hold a banquet.
She whispered to Tan Zhengchu, "Zhengchu, Grandpa isn't fully recovered yet, so why are we having a banquet? It doesn't seem right. Could something else be going to happen? I'm a little uneasy."
As Su Yingxue spoke, she kept an eye on her grandfather's expression.
She discovered that her grandfather seemed to have a special fondness for Zhao Dakuang.
After thinking for a moment, she guessed it might be because of her grandmother.
So he said to Tan Zhengchu, "I think Grandpa's attitude towards him is very strange. Maybe it's because of some past events related to Grandma. There's something in Grandpa's eyes that I can't understand."
Despite his many doubts, he took into account his grandfather's fondness for Zhao Da Kuang.
Su Yingxue took a deep breath and said firmly, "No matter what, let's go to the banquet for Grandpa's sake. Grandpa's happiness is the most important thing. I want to spend more time with him at the banquet and see if we can figure out what's going on."
Tan Zhengchu looked at her, nodded, and agreed: "Okay, with me by your side, I won't let you get hurt."
After Grandpa Su was discharged from the hospital, Tan Zhengchu and Su Yingxue slowly left the ward.
Su Yingxue was filled with doubt and unease. She reached out and gently tugged at Tan Zhengchu's sleeve.
Tan Zhengchu's handsome face immediately turned to her, a trace of wariness still lingering in his eyes.
Su Yingxue frowned, her voice tinged with anxiety: "Zhengchu, what exactly is Zhao Dakang's purpose? His sudden appearance and the banquet he's throwing make me uneasy."
Tan Zhengchu narrowed his eyes slightly, his expression calm: "Yingxue, don't panic. I'm already investigating his and Qibao's affairs, and I suspect that someone is manipulating everything behind the scenes."
Tan Zhengchu's eyes were firm as he continued, "At tomorrow's banquet, I will definitely expose his purpose. No matter what schemes or tricks he has, he won't succeed."
Su Yingxue looked at Tan Zhengchu, her eyes showing both trust and a hint of worry: "Zhengchu, I believe in you, but Zhao Dakuang seems very complicated. I'm afraid you might be in danger."
Tan Zhengchu gently held her hand: "With your concern, I am even more determined to find out the truth and make sure nothing gets to happen to me."
They arrived at the underground parking garage of Jinmao Shopping Mall.
As they walked, Tan Zhengchu suddenly mentioned, "Yingxue, we still need to prepare the dress for tomorrow's banquet."
Su Yingxue's eyes widened in surprise: "A dress? I didn't even have time to think about that, and I don't know if it will fit or if the style will be too old-fashioned."
Tan Zhengchu smiled confidently: "Don't worry, I prepared this dress for you personally, it will definitely suit you."
A hint of surprise flashed in Su Yingxue's eyes, but she was still somewhat skeptical: "You designed it yourself? Really? I can't even imagine what it will look like."
The car slowly came to a stop, and Tan Zhengchu gracefully got out first.
He turned and walked to Su Yingxue's car door, reached out his hand, and gentlemanly helped Su Yingxue out of the car.
Su Yingxue took his hand and used it to get out of the car.
Tan Zhengchu took her hand and put it in his arm, smiling as he said, "Let's go try on our dresses first, so we can be fully prepared for tomorrow's banquet."
Su Yingxue nodded, her unease slightly lessened by the anticipation of seeing the dress.
